Got a JVM

[PhilTheBeard]

Killer buy dude those jvm's are probley my fav marshall amp besides an older jcm800. you can get some pretty brutal guitar tones out of that monster.

 

[punkrockacademyfightsong]

yes! sounds like a marshall should sound to me!

 

[Machinated]

sounds awesome

guess its the IN amp around here now, got to try one out!

I'm just glad to see Marshalls finally getting some respect around here.

 

[J.DavisNJ]

Anyone directly compare one with an old JMP or JCM 800??

I'm itching to buy one again. I had my sights set on a Soldano Avenger, but the JVM has way more options that I really need. I'm not looking to sacrifice sounds, but I am a huge Marshall fan as well!

Matt, one more question: Did you use a boost on this?

-Joe

 

[Matt Smith]

Thanks, guys.

Yeah, boosted with a Maxon 820. I should also note that I recorded that with a cheap LTD practice guitar with passive pickups that I got a couple of years ago, and have literally never changed the strings on.

That was into a Mesa Traditional 4x12, Vintage 30s, SM57, API mic pre.

 

[PhilTheBeard]

man those maxon od820's are the sickest overdrives ever

Thanks for the info.

I've been wanting to try out the Maxon 820.

How does it change the sound compared to the Maxon 808? Less mid hump? No bottom end loss?

-Joe

 

[PhilTheBeard]

it makes the amp thicker its hard to expaline cause i suck at explaining shit lol. but like it isnt as harsh and the mids on it are just amazing. and it just makes the low end hit a lot harder then the 808 does

 

[PhilTheBeard]

ill try and get some sounds clips of all my tubescreamers and post them up here for you soon

 

[J.DavisNJ]

Coll thanks man, appreciated.

-Joe

 

[Matt Smith]

Forgot to mention, that's straight-up with no post-processing at all.

 

[MetallyGuitarded]

I disagree, I think this is the essence of Marshall sound - characteristic snarling mids and letting the bass guitar do the bottom end.
This clip has a total thrash till death sound

+ 1.

And regarding the lack of low-end, I'd say it prolly sounds like that cause it's not tuned to B or lower? I'm sure it'll slay in a mix just like it is.

 

[zakky]

wow lovin it matt! impulses maybe??

 

[Felix Neumann]

Welcome to the Jvm family This is my absolute fave series. Couldn´t be more happy with my Jvm205.

Great clip as well, dude!!

 

[Nebulous]

Great tone, but am I the only one that would love to hear that mixed with a 5150? I'm feeling some awsome melodeth tones out of those two blended- just imagine the grind!
