I recorded our practice yesterday but it is embarrassing to post these clips because there are some ultra cringey worth wrong notes and train wreck moments, but I guess that why it is called band practice. We are down one guitar player, so I jump around like a spaz. it is was it is.. but it...
Thanks Nick. Not sure I would call it love for it.. but I like it and it fun and forgiving... I think my other amps sound "better" if push comes to shove, but the feature set is good for doing covers and I do like it. Next time we jam I ill use my 2204 and a couple pedals and and see how...
If this thread should have been combined with my other JVM thread, then please delete and I will post clip and or clips there. What ever is appropriate. I dont want to be a thread bogart and not sure what is proper etiquette since I don't post that often. Thanks.
Thanks for listening. Hard to listen to because I spaced out like 2 or 3 times on the same part.. To be fair, we don't know the song yet and that was just a first run for shits and giggles. Our other guitar player broke his hand surfing and that song, at least the first part can still fly...
It definitely is less punchy. Not as much weight in the notes. I have a 1959HW,77 2204 and an 82 4104. They are the best at what they do, but the JVM offers good utility and function and sounds good in its own way. On the OD channels the gain never goes much past 9 so noise no an issue for...
I hear people say that. but mine is not terribly noisy... I used mine today with band and we play loud in small room and not bad and our room does not the cleanest power. Often excess noise is related to something else, but others have complained of noise too so who knows. My Be 100DLX was...
I recently got an Epi 355. one of those 59 Custom shop inspired models with good parts etc. . I am extremely impressed, even compared much more expensive similar guitars. So based on that. I would say Epi but I dont know the specs on that V.. Otherwise, the Jackson. The EB guitars play...
Played JVM first time with live drums and bass.. I thought it sounded pretty good and seemed to cut just fine.. Goofing around on some Maiden today but only one guitar so kinda lame. Quick Losfer words hack.. We are just starting with some Maiden tunes this week so it is rough and comes...
I can take it. Did I read you were so pissed you threw it out in the trash? LOL. That is as bad as me. UPS fucked up my Uberschall I bought from Kage way back when so I pile drove it into the ground if you recall. I dont have a weak stomach!
Thanks a lot man, you are a kick ass player with discerning ears from I have gathered so I really appreciate the nice words. I remember an old Mob Rules clip you did way back. probably HCAF days iirc. Thanks again. and yes. the JVM has way too much gain. od 1 never goes past 10 or 11...
Thanks man. Too kind but much appreciated! Cheers!
I had one before and I liked it but sometimes I would hear a sterile component to the tone and others not so much. Same goes this time, but my ears are hammered. and half the time so am I. LOL.. It is fun to play that is for sure.. Is...
I will try that more. I play a bunch of Rush tunes and the clean and crunch modes do those tones pretty good. The smear factor kinda works good on some of it, because Lifeson did not have the most articulate tone... the wide flub of those channels kinda works in a weird way. but..... yeah...
I have not tried that yet for crunch tones. Thanks for the tip. That "plexi trick"others have posted is what I did for this clip .. more or less. I have a Plexi and it definitely sounds better at THAt tone, but the JVM version of that tone on OD2 Red is pretty damn decent imo, and the OX...
I hear ya. The crunch does not have the clear, punchy,bark of an 800 or JMP. Sometimes I think blah and others it sounds good enough, considering the versatility, features and new pricing.
Thanks a million for the vote of confidence. I read so many harsh comments and critique of people tone and playing that posting a clip was a bit nerve racking. I just recorded the clip to try out the OX and a MacBook Air which II recently got. first attempt and it sounded better than I...
