A great tip. Thank you! I find the pick rotates, so that I am playing with the side of the pick 99% of the time. This product should work well.

I just take my lighter and go to the back of the pick and heat up the edge a little bit and with my thumb nail put a little dent in the pick. Now, I can clearly feel that dent... I don't do that anymore! I just changed my technique 2:08

This is a huge issue for myself also. My pick is constantly rotating and I find myself readjusting my grip. I've tried many different things and also havent found a good solution. I have switched to a celluloid pick (Dunlop) and that helped but at this point I'm going to try this product. Thanks for the heads up.

i just lick my thumb and us dunlop tortex tbh. works pretty well. Been doing this since 96 or so.

Haha for years and years I did the Dime trick... scratched up a Dunlop .88mm tortex with a cardboard cutter... then I discovered Dunlop .88 flow picks which already have a good grip by default which is also a more comfortable size all round including fast shredding.... just my 2 cents ;)

Did I hear some TYA riffs @04:10 ?

I run a sv20h through a re amp. Powerstation 50 watt into EVH cabs with the same speakers you use. Its EPIC

i like them in my modeller :)

That Studio series JCM800 does not sound right. A real JCM800 has balls and guts.

I bought a used jubilee like 20 year ago, and only had 2 guitars both with emgs. i though something was wrong with my pickups like a short or bad batteries because of the of the volume on the jubilee. Until i figured out the sweep of the volume , it was like about 2 weeks of trying to understand what was wrong or what i thought was wrong at the time.

Awesome video! I had a JVM210H for about a decade and ran it through my attenuator before figuring it out on my own. When I finally upgraded to 4 channel, I compared it to my other amplifiers and drew the same conclusion and now only use the attenuator for the TSL100.

Epic Dude!

The VM sounds like a boosted SV. Go ahead run an SD-1 in front of the SV and you got that sound

Great comparison showing both amps! Jubilee wins IMO

Plexi for me.

Intro is so delicate and dulcimer-like. Following sample more so. How does anyone tell the difference between this and dimed? Body tissues being airborne? Neighbors with pitchforks? Distortion still just as fuzzy/buzzy at 90 or 108db. Yeah, I have a Marshall and Marshall 4x12 cab, running through pedals and tubed pre amps. Plays wonderfully clean too is my point.

How are your switches set inside the EP?

Another great video from our guitar nerd. Keep rock n it Steve.

I love my SV20, it lacks a litttle bit of low end but if you push it with an OD and quad track it in a mix it sounds KILLER!!

Sounds great! I’ve been saying this for years! Heck, I was probably one of the people on that very FB forum extolling the virtues of the JVM at bedroom volume! People don’t understand modern amp design and the fact that modern amps are not designed like they were in the ‘60’s up through the ‘80’s. They get stuck in the dogma of “tube amps have to be loud to sound good”. I plant my face firmly in palm every time I see players using attenuators with amps like a JVM and then believe they have the “hidden secret” to great guitar tone. There’s just so much bad info and people with opinions as facts that leads too many players into believing things that just simply aren’t true.....sadly.

The JVM has probably one of the best master volumes. The sound all comes from the preamp, and the power section is very clean like lots of multi channel high gain amps.

I love my Jvm , awesome content 🤜🤛

I hear the characteristic chuggy and chimey rich tones. Marshall and HSS Stratocasters for me too. Top drawer riffage.

Veru nice! Whats your favourite? Chees from Portugal 🤘🍺🇵🇹

Subscribe brother

Great video, Steve! BTW, those Metallica, Megadeth, Whitesnake, and Maiden riffs sound awesome!!!

I play my 2555x Silver Jubilee half stack at bedroom levels a lot and it sounds great at that volume. Of course it's best at around 1 or 2 o'clock on the volume and I'm very fortunate to be able to play at that volume but it does sound great at lower volume. Now my SV20 studio plexi is a different story all together but honestly I don't think the SV20 sounds good at any volume.

YES! You nailed it my friend. I play my 100 Watt 2555 Marshall at bedroom volumes thru two 4x12 cabinets, and it sounds so much better than any small amp. No boxy tiny cab tone. And I play HSS Strats like you. Very cool and thanks for posting!

Through my speaker. On low volume, it has slightly thinner low end than the loud one.

A fellow strat metal guy…we are a rare breed haha

I think it sounds better at low volume. Maybe the el34's are imparting more of their character at high volume. Makes me wonder how 6L6's would do.

Steve brother you're such a badass

I happen to currently have these two plus the mini Jube… you can EQ all to be similar… Jube is the best bang for the buck and can cover the most ground if you want one. Jube can also be played at a fairly low volume.. The Plexi needs volume so it’s not a home amp for most people unless it’s a pedal platform, All 3 are excellent.

Yeah man I was surprised when I first played my 410h at low volume and still sounded amazing. Way underated amp too! Nice playing btw 🤘🏻

yep, power amp gives the 'meat' to it. Thanks for video

Now compare the JCM 900? 😁 Really enjoy my 1959HW full stack; for similar tones at lower volume, the Origin 50 does well enough - even better when you consider the price. I know it's not everyone's fav Marshall, but I really enjoy my JVM410H - it has much of the history of Marshall in a single box. As usual, opening up the master addresses some complaints some have; it's not going to sound identical in a side by side comparison, but if you want a versatile Marshall channel switcher it's great IMO. I have other amp brands for other things, but honestly nothing sounds better to me than Marshall's. edit: my favorite Marshall amp? That's my Engl Artist Edition 100 E651, I can get Plexi, JMP, JCM 800 tones.

JVM410 is top notch. Also at bedroom level.

I have an attenuator and keep my volume coming out of the amp around 70dB in my bedroom. I live in a Duplex so I can't crank my amp loud.. I have it running pretty high. Plus with an attenuator you can put things on 10 and bring the actual volume down to talking levels like you showed. It's pretty cool. Good video.

I know from experience that it can! I have a Marshall DSL100HR that I played through a 1960A cab at bedroom volume at full power, half power, and then cranked through an attenuator. It sounded great no matter what. Hell, I should've made a video about it! Anyway, thanks for the terrific and informative content, brother. Rock n Roll!

I made a homemade attenuator like the JHS black box for maybe $20 and I can play my JCM 900 50w with the volume cranked at bedroom (actually garage) volume, I get the full tube tone without bothering the neighbors 😀

You have any tips or tricks for the evh stealth 50❤️💯

Love the vids

I played my DSL100 in my bedroom constantly, last week upgraded to a JCM800 (100 watt), despite so many saying that it’s not practical in a bedroom setting. Man were they wrong!!! I set the preamp at about 3 oclock, the master at about 7 oclock, yes it’s loud, but it sounds great!!!

Bogner cab sounds great….

Have a 2203X and a 1990 Jubilee 2555. Both are fantastic amps and have that "Marshall" sound. You did an excellent job describing the differences. I generally play the Jubilee at home because it sounds great at a MV of just under 2 and the EQ is very responsive. Additionally, as you point out, it's basically a 3 channel amp with Clean, Crunch, and Lead modes. I can achieve any tone that I am looking for with the Jubilee. The 2203X is more classic Marshall roar. For cranked tones, the Jubilee needs the MV at about a 7 to really shine, but the 2203X does that between 4 and 5. The 2203X is a much louder amp to my ear. But in my 8x8 space, there is not a lot of opportunity to crank these amps. For recording, I use a Suhr Reactive Load IR and it does an amazing job in getting authentic cranked Marshall tones without forcing everyone, including the cat, to need to leave the house. GREAT video and excellent playing too! I subscribed!

Focus on your playing...don't get caught up in the never ending trap of chasing tone

The winner is the patchcable for me! 🥳

Without going into too much detail what do you actually mod?

I have a 4x12 cab I had custom-built back in the '90s. It has 4 Celestion G12-75s. I have other cabs but I always come back to this one.
