I've spent nearly 15 years trying to mimic the guitar sound on In Flame's "Clayman." Turns out, I've had the last piece of the puzzle for years...
..and we also do a "Fearless Gear Review" of the Studio Fredman mic clip!

As a Marshall amp guy, those original Valvestate 8100's did sound great for that metal tone. The key to those were that "Contour" knob. The only down side to those amps were playing live and trying to get some volume with out it squealing like a pig. Chunk, chunk, wee, chunk, chunk, wee, lol. Definitely needed a noise gate. You can get very similar tone by using the Marshall JMP-1 preamp/ BBE Sonic Maximizer and scooping the mids.

I found a pile of ooooold tapes a while ago, listened back to one gig recording and thought "Man, my old JCM800 sounded so damn good that night, so much better than the other tapes..." - Then I remembered that I'd actually used a Valvestate 8080 on that night as my 800 had blown up for the umpteenth time. Funny how things change when you listen with you ears rather than your eyeballs. I do remember the power switch being a weak point on those 1st gen Valvestates, mine ended up with a pick jammed in the switch to keep it on.

What's always bothered me about the mids crowd is that in the past, when I've defended scooping, they accused me of somehow hating boosted mids. My favorite sound is a Marshall with boosted mids - none of them had any idea what they were talking about. I wouldn't even bring any of this up if it weren't for the insane mentality behind a stupid little fucking tone knob.

I stuck a Fuzz Face in front of it and was able to get all sorts of cool sounds out of it. It's not my primary go to amp but I still like it, and yea, definitely underrated in my opinion.

YEEES I've been so waiting for the valvestate video! In the music school where I learned guitar years ago, there were multiple Valvestates in every room so everybody could use a decent sounding amp during lessons and rehearsals. My guitar teacher, who ran the school, collected them 'cause they were very easy to find on the used market, cheap, good sounding and reliable. 10-15 years ago there weren't so many cheap but good sounding amps like the Joyos etc. that we have today. Damn this is triggering some nostalgia...Now I want a Valvestate too!

They did it right with a tube preamp because it takes a boost really well. I also have a valvestate 1x12 combo that I closed the back on and added an eminence legend. I've had so many comments on that combo amp it sounds friggin killer!

AVT 50 Combo. Got it just before Christmas. First thing I did was shit can the 18 year old Marshall 12ax7 tube and put in a new JJ ECC83S in it's place. Noticing the back of a JCM 900 was open I did mine the same way. Finally I bought it a Weber Legacy 12 speaker. So for a little more than $300.00 I have an amp that totally kicks ass.

The MosFET 100 had a lot of potential as well. I loved mine. Wish I never traded it. Got another one later but it was thrashed. Mine was mint.

So I wonder if its the tube preamp stage that makes that amp sound how it does or do you think just a solid state head like the Randall RG series could pull off that top end sizzle with maybe a boost pedal in the front?

My first "real" amp was an 8040 when I was a kid and I loved that thing. Unfortunately it got stolen and since then Ive owned alot of much more expensive amps and have even built a few of my own. 20 years later my sister's boyfriend picked one up in a pawn shop. I took one look at it and instantly knew it was my old amp! I was expecting it to sound shitty to my more mature ears but i was instead reminded of how good the amp really was! Definitely a unique sound.

I kinda remember a guy named Darrel that used a solid state amp. His tone was mid scoopy if I'm being honest, but nobody hated him for it.

Who cares about some random guy named Darrel...oh I see you mean Pantera, lol. I remember the first time I heard Vulgar Display of Power and the whole sound was so cool and very unique, I didn't know much about production then but the sound of that album is just perfect, guitar drums and vox!

@@Joshcheyka Well it wasn't the classic Marshall/Mesa that's true but I thought his tone went great with the band and the band sounded great so you'd have to say the tone was great

Wow really scooped at 125 225 Hz on the spectrograph. I am going for slayer sound by blending the lower mids at 125hz by low passing the guitar, and high passing the bass there

So happy to hear this because I actually got my old 8100 head modeled into BIAS. Please take your time doing it right. Static-x , fear factory, death, distortion is really where it’s at.

I already have a vs100 head. Do you think the cab is essential in getting the sound as well? There's a vs100 cab with celestion g12hs local to me for 125 on Craigslist right now.

I love how you are not the best guitarist but always find killer riffs, that what makes you a great player PS : after 12 years of guitar I just bought a Valvestate 8080 for nothing. Definitely a great value for money. The good classic Marshall sound, I love it !

The combination of a Marshall and a 5150 seems to work so well for heavy guitars. Gojira has also done the 5150 and valvestate if I remember right and Rabea's vid with a 5150 and JVM sounded huge.

Not to say it sounds deeper or wider or anything, but it adds that additional dimension to the sound that might have been missing or people been looking for. Anyways, really cool vid. Thanks.

I'm new to production so I'm not sure if this would be a dumb question or if it would even work but do you know if there are any impulse responses specifically for the Fredman technique? I absolutely love this era of In Flames and would love to get this sound as well
