Hey Dave, I have a Marshall JCM900 50 watt dual reverb. I've been trying to dial in the JF tone but can't seem to find the sweet spot. Curious if you have any insight on this? Wonder if it's the amp or me. I have the Jack Hammer, DS2 and the Ibanez wah as well. I'm going through the JCM800 2 -12 cab. Love the content-Cheers!
Did John Frusciante have his ds1 after his ds2?
What Ohm setting are you running the speakers, Dave? Is this super crucial for your tone also? I find a clearer tone in the 8 Ohm range personally!
Hi Dave- I’m playing a MIM strat into a Marshall origin50 combo. It sounds super weak, tinny, and metallic even after trying every combination of settings. Any ideas on what I could do to fix it? Your video mention a compression pedal and some settings, others have mentioned pre amps, swapping pickups, bad soldering, EQ pedals. Wanted to get your thoughts.
Those amps are huge.
Which strings do you use please?
4:08 “it’s super loud and I don’t want to die” ????
Dave, if you still check these comments, thank you. Just bought a golden plexi. 🙂
Hello Dave,congratulations on your work and your music, you can see that you do all this with passion and dedication. I've followed pretty much all of your videos on how to get the Frusciante sound and I'm almost there. in a video you said that you rely on your pedals to recreate the sound because obviously you can't always have your favorite amp available. In my case I have this amp: DV Mark Jazz 12 can you give me some advice on how to set it up? if I put the volume of the ds 2 to 10 there is a jump in volume too large but if I keep it more I lose the characteristic sound of the ds 2 (as you teach ^^). Thanks for your time and keep it up! ????

What brand attenuator do you use?
Hey Dave, i' m using a Marshall 2525 combo silver jubilee. Any tips of setting for this amp?

okay, I've made everything right, now I'm able to use the DS2 without the jumping volume.
BUT now I got to deal with a lot of noise from the DS2. Once I turn it on, I can't stop playing for a single second, cause if I do it gets really annoying. It actually happens even while I'm playing, but it depends on the way I play. Is that a normal thing? Anybody dealing with the same issue?
I love to create some nice loops on clean and add some DS-2 solos to it. In order to avoid volume jump I decrease the LEVEL of DS-2. It reduces the power of DS-2 sound, if set in a sweet spot it cooperates nicely with the clean AMP. What do you think about that solution Dave ?
Thanks so much
Intro la cigale is a mosrite fuzzrite you can hear the grit of the fuzz mode 1 on the ds2 sounds close to it
could this work with the ibanez wha and a boss ds 2 but with a boss katana mk2 50 watt amp?
Did you relic that strat yourself? Looks just like Johns.
How do I fix this with a Marshall MG100HDFX Half Stack?
still getting a volume jump on the orange cr60c.. this is really annoying. i just just sell my ds2 at this point.
Hey Dave (: Can you make a mother’s milk tone video and show us some mother’s milk riffs? or will youtube copyright nab you?
Stupid question, but how do you crank the amp whilst still keeping the volume down? You mentioned that the volume would deafen you at the levels you have the volume dials on the Marshall but it sounds great for house volumes still. Much obliged 🙂

How to Play Like Dave Simpson
My neck pickup is very low and same with middle pickup and the bridge pickup is very high
2:03 'it's basically not distorted enough basically, I said that really posh distorted huh Yes distorted' was in tears????????????
Where did you get that cornstar pedal from
Hey dude where is you hair?
Hi Dave,
What drive pedals would you recommend to use with a fender Princeton reverb? I got a muff, and a tube screamer, and eq pedal. Having some trouble though for Frusciante tone
The first 6 minutes are like a ridiculously helpful essentials of amplification lesson for people who've never played beyond their bedrooms.
50 40 50
hi dave ! please tell me what the riff 21:33. Thank You
p.s
I couldn’t find exactly your lesson on the unique part of scar tissue slane castle (you really cool, seriously)
Hi Dave! You might be able to help me: When I engage my DS-2, there's a nasty squeal coming through that is unbearable. I'm using a '09 American standard strat through a 1959SLP mainly cranked. My board is heavily JF inspired. Thanks! 🙂 Amp setting: Presence: 4 Bass: 6 Mids: 5 Treble: 4 Vol 1: 4 Vol 2: around 5 ish
Hello Dave !
Seymour Duncan SSL-1 on your Strat ?
Hi Dave! I love your videos. The marshall major of Frusciante is the bass model o the guitar one? you know? Thanks very Much!
Dave what would you say I need to get the John tone, I have watched a few videos but sometimes you lose me with knowledge haha. A Marshall amp, which kind of amp? Then an Ibanez Wah and DS2 pedals?
Hi Dave, would the orange CR120C combo get similar results?
Hey Dave greetings from the states, Have you ever had a chance to check out a Alexander jubliee silver over drive pedal?
Hey Dave! I am using a Blues Junior 3 with the ds2, wah and micro amp. Any tips on the amp settings for this amp? Or will I need to buy a different amp? Thanks man! Big fan, keep it up.
I've been following this series for a while, great job man keep it up!!
Dave has the Apple notch haircut. Sweet!
Yo man. You are totally Johnified.
Great insights and good lessons.
That little riff before scar tissue? What song is that mate or is it the end of by the way from slane castle?
Amazing!
Unfortunately i struggle "squishing" the signal on my orange crush cr60 when i use Ibanez WH10 or DS2. The volume "wahahaohoah here i am" increase stops when i set gain on 5 or 6.
I know that you own a cr60, could you maybe do some video about how to tame the WH10 and DS2 on Orange CR60?
Anyone have any luck with getting a Marshall DSL40C to do this? What EQ and channel settings do you use??
hey dave I would love to know the exact pedal order and and where the pedals are according to where the guitar and amp are
hi dave~ u made me buy a golden plexi. yes u were right. this is really good pedal. thank you. now im testing it, i have one more question, useing golden plexi for clean chanel amp or little crunch chanel? which is better u think?
