Thanks so much for the kind words. Really appreciate it.

This dude legit has the absolute best guitar gear related channel along with Blake Mansfield because it’s no nonsense and it’s not corny selling stuff and promoted content and them talking (who actually listens to people talk??)

I spend a lot of my time on Crunch Orange as well. I love this amp.

Thanks so much Sean!

Yep. Kinda wished I had kept mine to have but I prefer the original. It's just more over the top which I like. Personally wished the 410 had the gate as opposed the reverb and I prefer the loop on the Satch model though I've never had issue with stock loop on the 410. Both the Satch model is a more refined or dialed in version of the stock.

Crunch red is actually the AFD, not orange. Orange is 100% JCM 800.

That's awesome! Thanks so much for checking out the videos.

Thanks so much! I really appreciate it.

Same! SD1 makes every amp just a little bit better

@@JDizzleBizzle especially every Marshall...

Thanks so much Marco! Appreciate it.

I’d also be interesting in a mod for tightening the sound . It’s always been a kinda flubby amp. It’s a bit overrated .

TONY McKENZIE DOES A REAL GOOD COMPARISON THESE AMPS ARE APPLES AND ORANGES THE ONLY THING THEY HAVE SLIGHTLY IN COMMON IS THE LOOKS INSIDE...WAY DIFFERENT AND THE CHANNELS ARE VOICED TOTALLY DIFFERENT I HAD THE STANDARD AND GOT RID OF IT TO GET THE JS...THE STANDARD SQUEALED BAD WHEN YOU TURNED THE GAINS PAST A CERTAIN POINT NOT SO WITH THE JS.....ALL REWORKED..I SEE MANY GUYS TRYING TO RATIONALIZE THE STANDARD INTO THE EQUAL OF THE JS...JUST NOT TRUE EVEN SLIGHTLY.

Can that shop mod an European JVM410H which comes with 240V in order to convert it to 120V suitable for USA voltage?

@janguitar2024 I believe so. You'll need to buy a new power cable as well.

Thanks so much Kent. Appreciate the kind words. The Friedman and the JVM410HJS are two of my current favorite amps. I typically shy away from amps that try to "do it all" with tons of channels and options, but the HJS is pretty incredible of everything actually being useful and sounding great. For the kind of music I play live, I don't really change sounds all that often, so I'd likely end up leaving it on the JCM800 channel (crunch/amber), but it's awesome to have all that flexibility when recording or producing other bands. I think at the end of the day, if you've got that "Marshall" sound in your head, it's pretty tough to beat and any other amp you put up against it will inevitably have that "well it's not a Marshall though" feeling. Having said that, the Friedman is a joy to play through. To me, that's the best part of a Friedman, they feel incredible to play. They have a bit of sag to them in a great way that is very similar to when you crank an old plexi. The fact that they're able to achieve that feel at any volume is pretty amazing. Tonally they're really refined, almost like they've already been EQ'd to sit in a mix where as the Marshall is a bit more raw and wild. In a recorded mix, I think you'd find them to sound really similar, so to me, it'd really just come down to the features that they offer, but you could spend all day going back and forth between to two and still not decide haha. Two of the very best out there in my opinion. Hope that's somewhat helpful. Thanks and take care.

That's "Silverspoon" by Teenage Wrist. All riffs are listed in the video description if you're interested. Thanks for checking out the video!

@@ZachWish OK great, another rabbit hole to go down. Checked out the song and loved it, thanks. Not the first time I came across a band in a totally unexpected way LOL

It's a Gibson Les Paul Classic Custom. I made a video about that guitar if you're interested: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rL2joKmZsLGlYXk.html Thanks!

I use 10-52 for E standard, 1/2 step down, and drop C# on both Gibson & Fender scale. Thanks!

All three modes of OD1 & OD2 are actually identical on this amp as opposed to the original JVM410. Pretty cool design choice to me. That way you could dial in the OD2 channel to be similar to OD1 but with just a little bit more if you wanted to (more mids, bump in volume/gain, etc). I'd say if you were going for a death metal kind of thing (depending on the style), I'd hit it with a boost on the OD-1 Orange channel to tighten up the bottom end a little bit, but it could definitely do it. Opeth were using the HJS heads for a while in the mid 2010's and played a fair amount of their older tunes on them and I thought it sounded great at the time. Thanks for checking out the video!

That's "Silverspoon" by Teenage Wrist. Great band. I list all of the riffs in the video description. 👍

Yes.

Mode 4 .....really?🤣🤣🤣🤣

@@peterschaefer1665 I have a lot of very high end amps, and there's some magic to the Mode Four, would never part with it.

I played in a band with a guy who used one back in the day. He used a distortion pedal through it, but in the studio the engineer suggested using the amp for our demo tracks. It sounded really good for a hybrid amp. Doesn't compare to this amp in terms of tone and versatility, but the Mode 4 for heavy music ain't bad at all!

Thanks! Those two amps are realllllly similar sounding and two of my favorites that I've tried. I'd give the slight edge to the Friedman. Just sounds a bit more natural in terms of the gain, but again, really slight differences. They both have a ton of knobs, but I like the simplicity of the Friedman. For cleans, they're both great. For Crunch/800 tones, I think the Marshall does it better. For high gain, I'd go for the Friedman. The gate on the Marshall is also pretty incredible. Again, two of the best, versatile amps out there, so if you couldn't get it done with one of these amps, it's not the amp...

Of all the amps I've ever had, THIS one is the most sensitive to speakers. I have an old 1960A cabinet with early 90's G12T-75's - as well as an old Mesa 4x12 with G12-65's and Black Shadows in it. My JVM410h sounded like a ball of horrid shit through both cabinets. Too much gain on the OD channels. On the orange and yellow channels on OD 1 & 2, you can't really turn the preamp up to about 9 o'clock, and after that, it turns to mush. Anyways, I kept it, but got a Peavey Invective 120. The Peavey sounded MUCH better through the 75's, but it still wasn't quite "there." I got a couple of Vintage 30's and ran them with the 75's, and it got a lot better - but you couldn't hear the 75's (97dB's vs 100dB's)! Finally, I got a pair of Creamback 75's to run with the Vintage 30's, and holy GOD! Perfection. I finally got around to running the 410 through the cabinet now, and it was like comparing shit to gold. I was absolutely amazed at how much better the Marshall sounds. I also found it a major help to use the GREEN channels on OD1 & OD2, and use a tube screamer in front of both channels, and the difference is night and day. It definitely takes pedals/effects very good. The fact that Marshall tries selling this amp (or any of their amps) with G12T-75's is absolutely absurd. I know a lot of people like them, but they sounded like total ass with the 410. I still primarily use the Invective (it still sounds better to me), but I'm keeping the 410 now, as it's not the ass-sounding amp I thought it was. It goes to prove that SPEAKERS are the most important thing there is. Took me years to figure that out, but it is the truth!
