Tbh the plexi sounds better.. its warmer, Less piercing for the hendrix tone. But i do prefer the 800 for most my playing.
I think Jimi would be playing through a Fender, today.
The Strat into a Plexi for the Jimi Hendrix tone definitely sounds best.
Death?
Amazing video. The amount of work that must have went into this is extraordinary. Well done.
Shows how much speakers actually matter. Especially in the Metallica and Hendrix tones.
It didn’t become the defining sound, it was garbage. To listen to a moron like you try to define amp tones in the80’s is laughable lol’s
What have you missed..? Fu©kin SLAAAAYEEERRRR!!! ????????????????????
small thing about smashing pumpkins. you got the cleaner sounds, but you used the wrong kind of dirt. corgan used a triangle big muff. those have a bit more top end bite
To get the metallica tone you need to crank that master up, you can't let the phase inverter sleep when doing those high gain jcm 800 tones, it all comes from squashing in the pi stage.
You forgot about mick mars tone from the Motley Crüe guitar tone ????????
Nice touch to add in that oddball harmony part on Message in a Bottle! Great video!!
All of your love by the Bluesbreakers is at the very top of the list for me.
The quintessential Plexi tone for me is David Grissom's tone on the Joe Ely live album "Live at Liberty Lunch".
Give "Letter to LA" a listen.
Best Marshall's tone i've heard was Joe Holmes tone from his Marshalls modded by Jose Arredondo boosted by delay in FX loop. Ever. It's like pinacle of gainy Marshall tone.
What Marshall tone did you miss? Why the most obvious of course Eddie Van Halen. I'm not really sure what all Billy Gibbons played through but Marshall's for sure. Maybe this was supposed to be a JCM 800 user list, but I didn't interpret the closing question that way.
You had absolutely ZERO ZZ Top. What an absolute disgrace. ???? ???? ????
800 is the best ever
Great playing, great sounds. I personally liked the Hendrix JCM800 sound. More stratty sounding but all good.
Rock you like a hurricane ?
Great jobb man!!
Sounds realy good ????
I love how the plexi tone just murders this thing at the end lol
Still got the blues was really well played.
raining blood by slayer
4:25 the “bridge pickup volume habit”
To me, there are a few. The Donnas "Take It Off" or anything from their first album. That's THE Marshall tone for me.
For the Police tone you should have added the harmony ! Trust me, it really makes the riff come together
I liked the sound of the Plexi for Hendrix a lot more than the JCM 800 but that might just be the way that you've dialed it in. Could use a bit more gain IMO to match the Plexi sound more closely.
Blue album tone!
great vid kid, but having been using the JCM800 since 1981, nothing in your video comes close to the actual real JCM 800 tone
JCM 800 just didn’t have that Hendrix sound like the Plexi did. Particularly on the single notes
Defo the plexi the 800 was just to brittle for his sound
That bc rich is a show stopper! Glad you’re still using it.
Sounds great!
I wouldve loved some Judas Priest or Iron Maiden but ya cant do em all
"I'm ever gonna match his finger tone" HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, good one!
No EVH Brown Sound?
No Nigel Tufnell? Although I guess it’s hard to find one of his Marshalls that went to 11…????
You make topnotch content. Regarding this topic, are we perhaps better served saying the famous Marshall sounds? For example, Clapton's bluesbreaker tone, Angus Young's Highway to Hell, Mick Mars' Looks That Kill, and Slash's Welcome to the Jungle are all Marshall but of different variations.
While yes he got close to the tones however I think this show no matter how much money can buy, fingers still do a lot. Yes it’s their tones but the feeling of the tone is different. Great vid tho. Looking forward to another.
Apologies for this but I don't think Gary Moore used a Klon at all .. I think the Still Got The Blues sound was a Guv'nor into the front of a Bluesbreaker re-issue .. and I think before that he used an Ibanez TS9DX (turbo tube screamer) as well as TS808, 9 and 10 .. and before that a Boss DS-1 .. There's some evidence of him using a Digitech Bad Monkey (which Josh showed could sound like a Klon) .. but that's it I think .. Also, there are lots of interviews where he decried the JCM800 preferring the 100W Plexi .. He did use the DSL100 lots but I don't recall ever seeing him live with one (I saw him a lot in the 80s & 90s)
You forgot Green Day, specially with their Dookie album!
Marshall is win! Great job recreating these tnes. Just amazing. Hendrix through the Plexi.
