Friedman JEL 20 vs Marshall SV20 Plexi Shootout
Рет қаралды 1,560
Ай бұрынA/Bing my Friedman JEL 20 with a Marshall Studio Vintage Super Lead head.
The goal here was to show what the plexi channel can do both with either the pre amp gain cranked at lower volumes, or how it sounds with the master volume dimed as that is typically how to get that true plexi power amp saturation. I didn’t use the Sat switch at all in this video.
After chatting with Dave Friedman directly, he clarified that this is very much is the front end of a plexi and just like those amps you have to crank the master to get the gain the amp is known for but I find the pre amp saturation can also sound great as well.
I also compare it with my Marshall SV20 and the JCM channel on the Friedman.
Both are plugged into my UA OX Box using the same cab (Greenback 4x12) recorded directly into Logic with no processing in post.
Using my Gibson Les Paul R9 - no pedals in front.
What sounds best to you??

They pretty much sound like slightly different EQed versions of each other. However I do give an edge to the Friedman sound for my ear.

I've had my JEL since October. It is a wonderful amp. Though I bought it for the 800 channel, I have fallen in love with the plexi channel AND the 800 channel with low gain...just a bit spicier than the plexi. Now I have GAS for guitars again. Great video, thank you for doing this.

Great video. I like the power amp saturation more - so I run my JEL20 Plexi Channel Volume at about 8 where it starts to overload nicely and have the Gain around 6… this way the bright cap is still doing it’s kerrang thing nicely. I also have a Marshall 1959 SLP and use it with the OX Box or the Fryette Powerstation. Having still that extra 5% mojo more than the JEL20 I have to say that Dave did an incredible job making an EL84 amp this big sounding
