@voxpathfinder15r 10 ай бұрын
Jarrod, either use a boss DS-1, or you have to do what everyone has been saying on the forums for over 20 years - you have to turn up the power section to get power clipping along with preamp clipping. These amplifiers back in the 80s were wound up pretty high back when there was loud stage volume. Plug it into your oxbox to get that output tube saturation

@@TONEWARSgearshow I used JCM800s for years and they sound shit until you get them up to loud drum level. At the level you were using it's impossible to get a decent sound. Also, there's nothing really to dial in as the tone controls just deaden the sound like the tone controls on guitars. This is why most JCM800 users just leave all the tone controls at 10. If you have the preamp on 10, then you'll probably find its suddenly comes alive when you get the master volume up past 3. Obviously this is completely impractical for bedroom (or basement) use but these amps simply weren't designed for home use!
@TheCyberMantis 10 ай бұрын
Yes, the 800 needs to be cranked. I'm surprised he didn't try the ODD pedal in front of it. But you do need to crank the power section of the 800. And yes, they were never designed as bedroom practice amps!

@@TheCyberMantis I also found that although JCM800s are 'one trick ponys' they still vary considerably in quality of sound, even for the same model. Most of the JCM800s I tried were pretty bad but a 50w dual channel model I bought new in 1987 sounded massive at drum volume level, even without an overdrive. As I wanted to have two full Marshall stacks - I was very metal! - I then bought another one in 1988, but this weighed about half as much and sounded feeble. Apparently Mashall switched the transformers for a far cheaper and more lightweight model to save money on production. Unfortunately most of these crap ones seem to be end up in rehearsal studios, as no one wants to keep them, so a lot of people think that's just what a JCM800 sounds like!

@@tomcootemusic I was in a band with a guitarist that had a jcm800 half stack back in high school in the late 80s. Back then everything was turned up. That was normal for loud practice and the stage. We played a show at this venue attached to our high school that was acoustically perfect,it has like 1,400 - 1,600 seats. And nobody thought we were assholes for turning up, it was normal. I remember having my first run-in with not hearing what was going on very well. So we pulled his half stack further back until I was in the path of the sound waves - that was my first crude monitor! I couldn’t hear the singer at all, a little bass. I just played off of the guitar player. Anyways, he played a Les Paul and we were jamming Ozzy Osborne tunes - the jcm800 sounded sweet! And he was going directly in, only a few guys had these Uber cheap dod pedals that I remember for playing Metallica riffs

If you’re using an X(reissue) I would highly recommend using a JHS little black amp box in the effects loop, or a similar type pedal. This will allow you to crank the MV and Pre Amp and use the Little Black Amp Box as the MV. I also boost the front end with an SD-1 or Rat over a TS style pedal.

Did they neuter the reissue? I have a 2203 from 1982 with 6505s and it's the best amp I've ever encountered... and you could not have the volume at 2 and stand that close to it without your ears bleeding, but these last few years I've used a Fryeytte Powerstation (instead of an iso cab) and actually turn the volume up to 5 (gasp). A Boss SD-1 is a must but between working that and my guitar's volume knob I can do everything I want.

This is a very interesting video. Believe it or not, a JCM800 IS NOT A HIGH GAIN AMP. It is a High Volume amp. All of the classic 80s metal tones used HIGHLY MODDED 800s. So the Idea that a bonestock 800 is going to provide that tone is batcrap cra cra. So, everybody goes the route you did and adds overdrives in front. They also added delays, chorus and reverb adding level and gain where possible with each "mod' stage. Kerry King hit the front of his "special" 800 with a MXR 10band eq, which has a tremendous amount of output gain. George Lynch (probably most noted for his use of Plexis) had a mod built that added another gain stage to the preamp section. But every interview, every guitar rig rundown, every player discussion noted that the master volume was set very high: In order to add powerstage distortion. This is fine in a studio where you are in an isolation booth, but not practical when you are in a Home and want to retain some hearing. All that being said, THE BEST JCM800 was developed by Line 6 and is called the 2204mod. By far, it is the most practical and easiest to use "modded 800" out there in the wild. Great video and the only thing missing was a "clean channel" dial in. A notable trait of the 800 is a 'great clean tone."

His older 800s were modded to take KT88 tubes. They're tighter sounding and less saggy compared to EL34's. If you can't find a JCM800KK, then a regular 800 will need to be modded. As far as I know, it's mainly biasing the amp for the KT88 tubes and transformer changes as they are more powerful vs the EL34. The tone stack stays as is.

@elektrar9620 10 ай бұрын
Great video, but it is quite apparent you are not used to these early true monsters, which behave differently to modded or newer higain amps. You messed with all knobs except the most important one = master, which does not only behave as a volume, but a saturation and another type of gain. Unfortunately at 2 the power tubes barely started to breath, so you need to find a combination of master and preamp volume to get balls, all the harmonics, attack and aggression and then you only need a slight boost from SD1 or OD1 to tighten it up and it will rock. If it was good for Metallica early albums, it should do metal:) I never use master lower than 3 and half but sometimes up to 6-of course I use it with attenuator:)
@TONEWARSgearshow 10 ай бұрын

@JJDon5150 10 ай бұрын
@elektrar9620 and there lies the main problem with these older Marshall amps. You need to play them super loud to get that signature sound, which isn't really that practical. I'm not sure how those 80s shredders were able to use them so frequently back in the day, but I'm guessing it was mostly in the studio or once they were established and playing big live venues. But today, if you live in an apartment or can't play super loud, you're better off with a newer high gain amp that doesn't take as much to get that high gain, saturated sound. The other issue is if you go from clean to heavily distorted a lot. That really became a thing in the mid 80s with hair metal and later in the 90s/00s with nu-metal, metalcore, symphonic metal, alt rock, alt metal, etc. Its only a 1 channel amp, and you have to crank the gain already to get more distortion from it, so your clean tone is going to suffer. So its either dial up the gain really high on an OD pedal, take a second amp for cleans, or live with your clean basically being an "edge of breakup" sound.
