Yeah, the asymmetric circuit helps with that. While still a Tube Screamer basically, the clipping change gives the SD-1 its distinct sonic tone. I do find it better for metal tones, but a standard TS works just as well, especially if the Tone knob is pushed at 2 o clock or higher.

I’m a longtime “Marshall” man & owned a 2210 in the late 80’s. When it worked it sounded great. I had blown fuses, tubes and OT on the one I owned. It got so bad that I traded it in for a rack system to use with my awesome JMP 1987. Once I went back to the 1987 I never looked back. I guess I just got a lemon, but again when my 2210 was working it was a fantastic sounding head.

Hah a little bit of irony. I traded a rack system to get my 2210...lol. I don't regret owning the 2210. It has been a great warrior for me but, I only traded the rack gear I had because of a ground loop problem that would randomly cause a loud pop followed by a hum that lasted for minutes and was never able to get it sorted but I sure wish I still had that too as one of the components was a MESA Quad Preamp that sounded awesome and I had only paid $400.00 for in pristine condition and now they go for between $900.00 to $1200.00 depending on condition and functionality. Oh well I got the 2210 and a 50watt Artist model that sounded great but got sold when I needed some cash. I don't see myself ever letting my 2210 go though. I've never had to do anything more than replace tubes and that was out of choice.

This is my favorite amp and I was lucky enough to find a next to new 1990 model that had spent 30 years in storage overseas. It's practically brand new, I just had to change the ht fuses to USA spec. It's not a high gain amp, and imo needs a boost. I use a bb exotic or boss ds1. To me it has the perfect classic Marshall sound. I have a three other Marshall amps that i love but this one is my favorite. It sounds so big. Thanks for the reviews enjoy the playing

I almost bought a JCM809 back in the 90s. I got talked out of it and into a Randall RG half stack just like Dime had. I have learned over the years that all amps in the 100w head need a lot of help from pedals, etc. I think you made it sound like I wish I would have bought one when I could. Lol! I'm quite content with my Orange Super Crush head. All it needs is an EQ pedal in the FX loop to make it sound killer. I got what I need and it's what I have always wanted. I guess my lack of ever owning a tube head lead me to my Orange. Kyle, good job on this vid

Diggin' it 😎🤘✨ ( I have the 4210) hard to get full on metal but you can get some pretty gnarly tones - I push up the gain about almost to 9:00 on the sd-1 but roll back the output of the sd-1 to about 1:00 or 2:00 which tightens it up a good bit. I also keep the gain on the amp at about 8 which seems to keep it fairly tight. Liked how that mxr sounded on there - I'm going to have to try that. Thanks for the video ( I thought it sounded pretty killer)

I’ve had good luck diming the channel volume, setting the gain to taste and then controlling the overall volume with the master section. Also turn all clean channel pots to zero as it can bleed into the gain channel. Boost or no boost it can rule.

Had a 2205 for a bit. The EQ is different if I recall correctly in the earliest runs of these, then they changed the placement of the EQ in the circuit and it behaves a bit differently (more flexible but also some bad tones possible iirc). They also had more channel bleed in the earliest years, which i think was fixed by 1988 or so. I really enjoyed the amp but ultimately didnt keep it because it wasnt what I wanted at the time. It behaves quite differently from other more vintage Marshall circuits, and I wasnt quite ready for that.

That's the amp I had been chasing for years and I finally got one a couple of months ago, to me it's about cranking the mids, that 'vocally' sound that was kind of weird for you is exactly what I love and the first thing I do any time I get to play any Marshall is turning that knob all the way up, the 2210 sounds killer to me, a Les Paul and a TS9 in front, gain at 6/7, mids at max, bass before noon, and treble/presence at taste. There's no point in comparing it to a 5150 or a Dual Rectifier, is not what this amp is supposed to be, is not the style this amp is for, JCM800s are not high gain amps (compared to the modern day beasts out there). I think that this amp is really good for Hard Rock, Glam and Heavy Metal, there it shines. Greetings \m/

Great demo! I owned a 2205, 2210, 2204. They all have way too little gain, even for "dad rock", without pedal help! The SL-X is a little better, but, to me, the JVM series nails the high gain Marshall tones! Also, the basic tone "foundation" of the 2203 is more solid without the added channel swithching and diodes of the 2210. So if you are going to add a pedal or two, the 2203 gives you a better building block.

So this is what Ola Englund used for his In The Room video. I wondered why that JCM 800 of his had so many knobs and so much gain out of the box! This does classic Marshall and thrash really well! I definitely disagree with the masses on the diode clipping sounding horrible even though I love the classic JCM sound.

I review pedals and when a pedal claims to be an Amp-in-a-Box of a particular make/model I listen to your demo of the real amp to find out. Small things like using an SM57 make a big difference to your demo giving me an the best idea ...short of being in the room with you. I know my amp history and I have reliable tech friends to give me a heads up on important issues. After the JCM 800 the next very, very, very important amp is the Soldano SLO 100. The reason is because everything after it designers could and did jump past all the Marshalls and use it as the new 'blue print' to 'start' from. In short the Dual Rec and 5150 literally on paper started there. After that it is all about voicing the mids that gives an amp an identifiable voice of it's own. Yes I did digress. Your review of the JCM800 was excellent from mentioning the diodes to the soft attack that has always been part of the Marshall sound. not a problem unless your music relies on a lot of 'chugging', LOL. I bought my first Marshall in 1971 ...a new 50 watt Plexi at the Selmer store in London UK. It's a long story but it was Ron Wood who in effect got me a really cheap price. I am on my 3rd one now and I expect at 75 it will see me out.

I have a Marshall JCM800 4010 combo, now I swapped out the Celeston speaker in favor of the Eminence DV-77 . It helps get rid of the harsh Brite top end that rip your ears to shreds. It's a 1989 model, so I did notice the thing with the mids, however I wouldn't say it sounds " weird " more like they actually work lol. I run the mids at 1 O'clock. I run so many different drive pedals in front of it, I love the 40th anniversary SD1 pedal in front of it and the EVH 5150 overdrive, and the Ibanez Nu-tube screamer sound great in front of the Marshall JCM800 series amps. Just my preference obviously, but works for me lol

I've got the 4010, but early 80s, vertical inputs. Doesn't sound at all harsh, must be the 65 speaker. Straight into the amp, it sounds much better than this 2210. They both need a tube screamer to get the Anthrax thrash tone
@jamiemascola6614

This amp, and the JCM900, non-SLXs, have one key circuit design concept that hold them back from what a 2203 can do. When an amp has an opamp buffered FX loop, it limits the max voltage swing that hits the phase invertor by a large margin. So that Plexi-style, cranked overdrive from the power amp kind of gets nerfed down. They are preamp-voiced amps. And they can sound good when dialed in. They just can't roar or breath in quite the same way as, say a 2203.

Think I'm gonna stick wirh my JVM 410H. It seems like it covers every base needed for gain and tone with days of left over gain to go without having to use any pedals.I play a little bit of everything so great versitile amp. Although the reverb on the Marshall's leave a bit to be desired for my taste (personal preference) so a good reverb pedal in the loop just spices things up even better. The JCM is still a great amp.....not bad mouthing it at all!

I remember A/B testing the new 20 watt version of this vs the DSL20, and I was floored by how agressive this thing sounds. It had such low amounts of gain, making palm muting really difficult, but man just playing power chords, it would growl and snarl like a wild beast. The DSL had way more gain, but it was more subdued somehow. Kinda round and controlled in comparison. Still a great amp though.

Nice vid! You really got some great tones out of the 2210. I have a 1989 2210 and I'm one of those people who have a love-hate relationship with it. I've tried a few different Celestion speaker models with it and have settled on the G12-65's being the best ones (for me) with it. Sometimes it sounds pretty good, but other times it sounds like crap with the flubby bass and muted highs that you've described. Also that weirdness with the midrange happens with mine too when you get over "7"-ish. I have 2 other Marshall amps that I think are way better and always sound great (to me). One is a 1972 1959 Super Lead which I play thru a 1960BX cab and the other is a 1984 JCM800 4104 50w 2x12 combo. Granted, those are undisputedly great amps to be comparing it too...but still. I find them a lot easier to play thru and they get the tone and response that I'm used to. I'm going to try some of the dialing-in tips you've suggested and see what happens. I may just end up selling it and with the way prices are now, I could probably nearly double what I paid for it 6 or 7 years ago.

Sounded great with the SD-1, better when you rolled the gain down a bit.

Helpful tip with this amp Kyle: Dime the Boost channel volume and use the Master Volume to adjust overall volume. Use gain knob to taste. This is the way the manual says to use it for maximum gain. Diming that boost channel volume really opens up the amp. You'll have to dial out the presence and treble because it'll have that distinct JCM800 brightness. Another great video Kyle! Let me know if you try those settings!

I own the same amp, sounds killer boosted, The noise you hear when you turn the gain up is the sound of the clipping diodes being added to the circuit, It is also the reason it brightens up, as you suggested. I modded mine with a post FX loop master volume and depth control so I can use it as a power amp for other pre-amps.

I've always wanted to try out a JCM800 for more downtuned riffs. I've heard people use JCM800's in relatively low tunings like B or A# and it sounded really good. The closest i've ever gotten to a JCM800 esque tone is with my Randall RG80 combo that i use with a Zoom G1XON (i'm using two effects specifically; the Exciter, and then an Optical Compressor) in the FX Loop.

2204s into a 412 with g12-65s pushed with an MXR D+ is perfection. It just has a grunt that works for sludge and hardcore. It's not a high gain amp, but it interacts with boosts and drives so well that it doesn't really matter honestly.

This amp, well the 50w version of it (2205) was supposed to be Michael Schenker's signature amp. He apparently had some input on the design, but the deal fell through apparently. The 2205 is still his amp of choice though, so if one wants to get a MSG type sound, the 2210/2205 is definitely it.

That’s a JCM 800 in my book. I know people prefer the two input single channel versions . Yeah I’m the 90s those two channel 800s could be had for 500 or less. I remember seeing 50 watt single channel 2x12 combos for around 400 of course shipping would’ve gotten the price on up there but still cheap by today’s standards. I think the mythical legendary status of the 800 series has led to the unobtanium like prices of the reissues they are just too expensive for a Marshall that they’ve been building for 40 plus years now ? The SC20 was a good amp for the money before the latest price increase but in my opinion you should nearly be able to buy a 50 jcm800 reissue for what Marshall is asking for the studio 20s now. I’m sorry but the new JCM reissues are ridiculous expensive. Come 3550 for a JCM 800 is ludicrous to me. The 800 is an incredible amp but for 3500 you could have a much more versatile amp, hell two more versatile amps and probably a couple decent used cabs . I’d be interested in a Vietnamese built 800 since the quality of the Vietnamese Marshalls seems to be improved to the point of being as reliable as any other mass produced amp in a far eastern factory.

For me it's been really cool to try, and mix together different overdrive Circuits in one pedal. Great demo, I never got to try a overdrive infront. the owner was offended i brought my own overdrive to try before i buy. he refused to sell me the amp. the only Marshall I ever owned was a TSL and i loved it. that was probably15 years ago, but I do love the little 25 watt EL34 Marshall.
