    from JVM410 to YJM100

    Having had a JVM for a number of years and rescently got a JVMJS I would not hesitate a second to go for the YJM. The original JVM has a number of flaws which I to some extent managed to solve by a number of mods, but the JS version is a different animal, it is what the JVM should have been...

    Best Modern Marshall??

    I'll have to go with the JVMJS, I just got mine last week and it's everything the original JVM should have been from the beginning. I have had my JVM for some 3 years and eventhough I eventually got some descent sounds from it after some modding it stands no chance against the JS model. Now I'll...

    JVM 210H for 1987x. Should I trade?

    Before you trade the JVM you really should check the bias (often set very cold from Marshall) and try the negative feedback mod (very simple to perform). If you like the OD from the 410 better, theres also a mod to convert the 210 OD to the 410 OD. I have the 410 and experienced the same...

    ZW-44,sd1,tube screamer or bad monkey?

    I don't use any OD/Distortion pedal with my Marshall, but I use the ZW44 with my Blackstar HT-5 at home and that amp likes the ZW44. Distortion at 0, Overdrive at 10 and Tone to taste. But then again...different amps react very different to different pedals...

    Ohm question about JVM

    You're cab may have a stereo option (as all new 1960 cabs have), but the JVM does not.

    OHMS mismatch mishap...

    Of course it differs from amp to amp, depending on what margins and tolerances the designers used for a particular amp, but I wouldn't worry. When I was thinking about this subject regarding my JVM, Santiago said that a one step mismatch (up or down) is no problem at all, he even encouraged us...

    which cab with celestion v30

    Yepp, all Marshall cabs labeled JCM900 has the G12-T75. The JCM800:s has a variety of different Celestions, for example G12-65, G12-M70, G12-T75, but no V30:s. So like HeHasTheJazzHands says, you need to find a AV (angled) or BV (straight) if you want a Marshall cab with V30:s.

    Marshall JVM205H with Behringer FCB1010?

    If my thinking is straight this early... As long as you dont have a multi effect or something similar that needs to be managed along with the amp itself, the FCB1010 won't do anything the original footswitch can't do.

    Thoughts on inserting EL34s anally?

    Why don't you start out nice and easy with a nice little preamp tube and see if you like it before you go for the big guns?;)

    vintage G12-65's

    Beware of the label markings! I have seen ALOT of older Marshall cabs with the wrong labels. I have an JCM800 cab labeled 260W...with four G12-T75:s, all original. I also have a JCM800 cab labeled 280W...with four G12-65:s, all original. My buddy have a JCM800 cab labeled 260W...with four...

    JVM 410 live to much goin' on?

    I have used the JVM controller live since I bought the amp I use it in preset mode and use tape and and a marker, it's been working so good that I've never got around to program my midi board for the JVM. But on the other hand I have a simple setup with only a few pedals in the loop.

    Marshall JVM 410h problem!

    As already stated, start with a really rugged tube in V3. If I put "the wrong" tubes in the V3 position in my JVM410 it fries them in a matter of minutes or even seconds. Once bought "a matched" kit with preamp tubes from Watford Valves and the V3 tube went south within a minute, resulting in a...

    The nightmare happened to me!

    G12-75's Suck....yes

    I bought a new 1960a cab along with my JVM410 but can't get it to sound right to my ears, so now it's just sitting there, while I play through an old JCM800 cab loaded with G12-65:s. Could be all the years, could be bad memory, but i'm more or less convinced that the JCM800 labeled 1960 cab i...

    YJM and why you should buy it

    Either you had two lemons, tube problems, user errror or you guys must play seriously LOUD. If you dime the channel volumes and run the masters at 8 on a 410... well thats usually plenty of volume for most people.

    Extremely Nooby question

    If you are considering the JVM... One thing to consider when chosing between the 4 or 2 channel versions is that the OD channel on the 2 channel versions is closer to OD2 on the 4 channel version. The difference is that the OD1 has the more classic Marshall midrange going and the OD2 has a more...

    What Marshall amp is best for Iron Maiden

    When it comes to Maiden, it's gonna be alot of rack stuff envolved if you want to copy their setup exactly, lot's of JMP-1:s and 9200. But I'd say you will get close enough with any DSL, TSL, JVM and probably a few other Marshall heads. I have never actually tried to replicate their tone so...

    Tone difference JVM 205 vs 410

    Aside from the power, there is a bigger difference between the two... The voicing of the OD channel on the 205 is more or less the same as the "modern voiced" OD2 on the 410. Alot of people like the "more traditional" voiced OD1 on the 410 and you miss out on that one if you go with the 205.
