This kicks ass :yes:

Nice tones...I'd have gone for a touch more mids for cut, but overall, real nice bite and tone IMHO :rock: :rock: :rock: :rock:

thanks guys!

This was a very simple quick clip I did. 1) Shure Sm57 microphone into my black lion ada8000 mic preamp into my black lion 96io interface, and that's it. Protools 9.0 HD, The speaker was a Celestion CL80. The Guitar was a Carvin DC127 with mahogany body and neck and ebony fret board Tuned to Drop C# with DR DDT 11-54 strings and a Suhr Doug Aldrich pickup set, plugged strait into the amp.

Drums are my Yamaha Oak Customs, 7x14 Maple Custom snare, bass was a fender precision bass lite strait into protools / amplitube 3.

Usually i do a sm57 on the h30 anny, and a md421 on the cl80 right into a neve 1073 dpa, but this one was real quick clip i did.
The amp Kills - it a JCM 800 2203 with the FJA F.U.P.A mod, which is like a hopped up version of a High Gain Jose mod. If you're looking for a rippin High Gain Jose mod, get this, Trust me!
 
Yeah man, that clip rips! :rock: I really like that tone. Sounds really clear with a cool grind.

thank you sirs! sounds even better in person... crazy part is the amp can go from that kind of tone, to like a bluesy bitey tone, to really nice and clean , just with rolling back the volume knob on the guitar...

That's something I just love. My amp does the same thing. I would rather have that kind of flexibility with the volume knob(and pick attack) than multi channels.

its what i dig about the 3 gain stagers ... it really responds more to your playing.
 
Damn man, thats impressive... :thumbsup: Is this the other amp you were referring to on the kit built amp thread?

Oh and by the way, dont think I diddnt see the SansAmp on that last pic ;)
 
I went to FJA's website and I can't seem to figure out exactly what the various mods they offer do - or even what they're called. I'll be straight up with ya, I'm far from a Marshall kinda guy, but this amp seriously got my attention - it sounds VERY Fortin'esque (tell me if I'm offside here fellas) and very crisp and cutting. I'm of the mindset to just buy a fkn JCM 2203 and send it to the lads to get done what you had done...the amp kills.

Send me whatever info you can - PM is fine, and that goes for you too JerryP :thumbsup:

This is a new mod , listed under Marshall Mods on the FJA website called the FUPA mod, but mine has a bunch of extra's. This also has a tube loop with a level control & second foot switchable master (with it's own dc power supply) with 3 way zener clipping switch's over each of the master volumes. Plus a push pull bass boost, 2) smooth switch's, and push pull bright switch's on the 2 preamp gain controls which add a killer bite to the gain. Pretty much it's setup and voiced exactly like my MK1 OG CCV....
