Marshall JCM 800 2203KK - modded and double boosted

[Simon Dorn]

Hi!
I'm sorry! I'm a bit too productive atm....
Here's a short clip of my Marshall.
I was curious to compare it with the Splawn Nitro.
The Marshall is the clear winner for me.
I have a problem with my ISO Cab. I always tend to "hear" it.
For sure it's the best solution in the Homestudio, but it doesn't replace a real cab...
What are your findings?

Best Regards,
Simon

Thanks! That's nice to hear

Very brutal, but I do find it a bit on the fizzy side. Your other clips sounded better IMHO

I bought a 2203KK this weekend. Actually, I think it is my old amp but now someone built in an effects loop. Thrash metal heaven I do use a TS though. What did you have modded?

Sounds great man. I think I like it better than the Splawn Nitro clip you posted as well.

@ Laurens: Thanks! A bit less treble and/or another speaker/s and you get rid of the fizz.
Mods are: increased gain, but still 3 stages, added depth pot and a choke = huge improvement!

@ The Traveller: Thanks! Me too The Splawn is up for sale...
Great Avatar by the way! More because of Giger, than Celtic Frost, but anyway: Circle of the Tyrant! uuuh!

Thanks for the info! The amp has lots of gain and I don't need more gain, but I do like that growling sound you got going. May I ask, where did you have it modded?

I don't play real heavy stuff, but I will say that the KK sig is one of the best bang for the buck amps out there. It beats out lots of other modded Marshalls I've had. I just have it on beast mode, and boost it with another mid bump from an EQ pedal..very nice.

Damn, nice man!

A guy from Germany called "Bierschinken" (a german wurst) did the mod. He's from the Musiker-Board Forum. It's more like a hobby for him, but he does the mods very professional.

Klasse I have to ask, why mod it? This sounds great. Is it really that much of an improvement?

Wo kommst Du denn her?
Das hab ich auch gedacht, als ich mir das Video gestern mal wieder angeschaut hab'...
Verglichen mit dem Mesa wars im Proberaum aber dann eher das Modell "alter Gammelverstärker" lol
Jetzt rummst er ordentlich!

Die Niederlände!
Ein Mesa auf volle Lautstärke ist immer schön, aber der KK is nicht Gammel haha
