Yep. There you go. Plexi with a one wire mod owns all of the crazy expensive mods our there for tone.

A PPIMV and "one wire mod" sound really nice together when dialed in correctly.
It's no secret, the idea has been around for long time.

This combination sounds awesome in late 60's Marshall Plexi's.

This sounds good and I like PPIV masters.

With that said, I much prefer a Jose master with zeners across it. When turned very low, the PPIV master causes the tone controls and presence to have almost no affect. I feel the Jose master with zeners sound more like a cranked Marshall. The cool thing with old Marshalls is you can simply wire the inputs so the volumes now act as gain knobs (2 gain knobs, one for each input channel) and the Jose will now be the master. You can get crazy high gain doing this.
 
Enjoyed the brownage. Great tone! Thanks for posting and the link on the one-wire mod.

A friend of mine who is very good at modded amps keeps telling me the same thing, Jose master is the way to go.

I think one of these days I'll give it a try in this Major.
I really like the way it sounds right now so I don't want to mess with it at this time. :)

I wouldn't either! :thumbsup:
 
Nice! The Phase 90 adds a nice dynamic, even on non EVH stuff. Great tone! And, I like the camera "man"! Very cute.

I see you have the extra plug into the lower input of channel 1 - for even MORE gain. Is it that way in all of your Major videos??

I think I got this Phase 90 down now.
I'm really diggin' it, great for all kinds of different things. :thumbsup:

No, I don't use the 1/4 inch plug in channel 1 all the time.

I think most of the videos are recorded without.
 
Here's one I did off the cuff today, it's a little sloppy but I think it sounds OK tho. :)
It was done with the 1/4 plug in low volume 1 as well.
The plug seems to work great for the VH stuff.

 
Amazing tone. I laughed at the grin on your face when you got the feedback.
Awesome!!
 
Gorgeous overdrive sound, never knew about Majors until you posted a while back and now I think it's the best sounding amp on here!

You guys are way too kind, thank you so much for watching. :thumbsup:
 
I just did the one wire mod again. I find at lower gain settings (channel volumes at 6), switching the caps reduces the low end too much. I like it better with the stock cap values so far.
