I have a Marshal 40watt amp witch i have been told are quite good but i can't quite get it to make a punk sound or get a decent solo out of it, any tips?
My amp only has volume, treble and bass. There is a clean/distorted button. My guitar only has volume and 2 tone dials. How do i set my guitar up in this case? Please, i really need help.
I play rhythm in my band and I play most of my songs acoustically on my fender strat (yeah the shitty one) because my amps so shitty. Oh and we need a drummer who can dual petal in the 504 area :P
@Beamster420 Go to Guitar Center's website, and search for these keywords exactly; "Marshall JVM410H, 1960AV, and 1960BV Tube Guitar Full Stack". This is the amp that I have, it sounds freakin great. It's expensive as hell, but worth it.
hi i have a similar amp (a 15 watt marshall) and it has a clean channel and another one which by the looks of things is just gain. if i turn gain completly off on the other channel though then the amp makes no noise (so long as im on that channel) even when the volume on that channel is up. so i want a bit of that crunch but i dont want it so unbelievely distorted that when i play a chord it sounds like nothing so i dont know what to do :(
@skillzdatkillz900 HI, without any gain, there will actually be no sound. If dialing up gain on a small amount isn't getting you what you want, then try adding more gain than you need and rolling the volume of the guitar down. This will give you control over the amount of distortion you can achieve because the more volume going in to the amp, the more gain (distortion) you can create. Like wise - less volume from the guitar = less distortion. Hope that helps x
@richarddeyn yeh a bit, but would messin around with eq bass and treble help at all to get a nice tone like 60/70s rock tone like hendrix for example?
that's really helpful thanks a lot SIR ! I am a beginner and I just learned how to play the chords on an acoustic guitar. My friends says that I am doing really well. So I am planning to buy a new guitar and I really want to have an electric one. I want your advice as a profissional. Shall I get a semi-electric ? or an electric one ? which brand do you suggest a beginner and what amp ? thanks again :)
Sorry this iPhone does that sometimes. But like I was saying I just got my first electric guitar & I don't know anything about them. And I was wondering
i just got an electric guitar and amp but when i plug everything in, turn the amp on i get no sound. im extremely new to how to work the amp but it seemed pretty simple, plug in amp to wall, plug in guitar to amp. anyone have advice?
omg thank you cause i bought the same amp and same colour guitar it was a package. frist time i got a electric guitar and i didnt know how to use the amp so thank you
Hello, Iam curious about buying electric guitars, Ive been playing classical guitar for long time...
Do you think its good to start with a Cort G254? Or any low priced good performance guitar, can you prefer me some fine amp, with which I can make distortions?
Heyy man good vid...i cheked it out because i just got a amp THUNDER PG-10 15 Watt amp also with the boost Button wich equals distortion but since i didnt know how to work the amp's setting i viewed this and helped alot thanx!!!
I have had many complimnts about this guitar. It's a FENDER RICHIE SAMBORA MODEL FROM 1993. Very cool guitar with amazing versatility. Shame I sold it recently :-(
@richarddeyn No,you're a fucking tool,who is trying to fool people into buying your piece of shit program.There is no 28 day routine in the world that can bypass years of hard work.Great guitarists are great because they work on their skills for years,not because they used some hack's 28 day program.I would say stop robbing people of their hard-earned money,but I know better : No one's buying your crap.
@TehOmniverse thanks for the insight and your deeply considered words of wisdom. Shame you wrote them when you were on your period though. It took me many years to develop the technologies in this program and a little research would have shown you I know what I am doing. Slander is a risky business...
There's this bass cabinet that I'm looking at. It has 4 ohms, and I understand that I need an amp head that can put out 4 ohms. But the cab has a Power (RMS) 800W and Power (Program) 1600W. What do both of these mean, and which one should I be more concerned with when choosing the right amp head?
@infinitylords You probably have P90 pickups, try buying some new cables, if you got some cheap cables they probably will crap out after a while, if you can't here your guitar it's most likely the cables, I'd try buying some new cables, if your amp still has the buzz get a noise gate which behingers are about $20 Us dollars.
Hi there, whenever I put my amp on (Marshall) and plug everything in and switch it on I get this horrible buzzing sound and can't get it to sound clean. Anybody have any ideas?
@Seanpatrick2662 i have the same prob. and today i was going to play some and i plugged it up and the amp shut off and wont come back on, does it have to do with the fact that i was playing on it all day with the volume all the way up?
Playin through that horrifying little amp when you've got that beautiful beast you could be using. Those little shit amps should be outlawed. All they do is make new players leave their guitars on its stand. It doesn't sound like anything that made them want to play in the first place
Hey i just got a epiphone guitar pack with amp. its a epiphone studio 15r and i do not get this thing. Im new to this so any help would be appreciated.
hi nice video. anyway i just got a electric guitar unpacked it followed the instructions but when i trun on amp and put in cables to guitar and amp it donsnt work. and the amp always makes a loud bass sound even if only the volume is up a bit and everything else is at 0. any help plx thanks?
I'm a complete novice, so this has really helped me. I tried twiggleing the knobs but I found it hard to get a decent sound of it. Cheer's dude, five stars.
yes, you only need an amp. IN fact, you dont even need that if you have a guitar and you just want to get strumming! It just wont be very loud!
A pedal is a small unit you sit on the floor and plug your guitar in to it and then another lead goes from the pedal to the amp. The pedal changes (or effects) the sound of the guitar. You can have Delay (echo), chorus, wah, distortion, the list goes on and on. Hope that helps you out and good luck along the journey x
Lol well i feel very stupid now, i got it, there was another wire that u gotta hook up to the switch on the wall...lol but i didn't see it cause it had fallen under da box of the guitar..hehe
Yu know what, yu can keep yer "25" stupidest things to yerself, Da amp dat i got was fucked up, and i got a new one soooooo basically yu need to shut da hell up and keep yer 25 things to yerself dumbass, i don't post comments to b insulted i post em cuz i need to kno, i wudnt kno cuz i was never interested in living my lyf bein a punked out rock star or anything
what the hell does getting a new amp have to do with knowing that an amp needs to be plugged into an outlet, you fucking imbecile. punked out rock star? it's my hobby dumbass, plus i played at my high school so i wasn't a punked out rock star.
quit being a pussy and accept that fact that you're a dumbass. you didn't know an amp had to be plugged in to work, that makes you a fucktard.
You know what, I might be a fucktard? But look at yourself, fighting with a girl? no no let me be more specific, FIGHTING WITH SOMEONE OVER THE INTERNET, you need to add that to your 25 stupidest things, Number one! I don't got time for you, pathetic bastard, Is that the way you talk to your mom? Because if not then you need to tell her that bullshit before you come charging like that on someone like me
Yeah well for one thing i figured out im a REAL big retard, theyrs two wires, both go into the amp and one end goes into your guitar one goes into the wall, the switch on your wall, lol its hard to explain and my amp still didn't work, and if it doesn't then try to turn on the button or mess around wit it a bit, if it still doesnt work its screwed i figured dat wit mines and i got a new one im not sure how to fix a amp, but yu can search it up
yeepp wow, we have the same one then okay I'm really not going to understand your problem unless i see whats wrong....do you got your amp set up though? like two wires going into the amp and then one hooked to the guitar and one in the wall? and if you do and it still making that noise, maybe your wire [the one that goes in the guitar] myt be a little messed up or loose try holding it tighter in the guitar tell me if dat works if it doesn't ill go in details to help ya
Hey dude,is the noise that you're talking about is like the buzzing problem?Coz I'm having a problem with the buzzing thing and it's really annoying especially when I switched it to distortion!!!
No, when i switched the amp on, no sound came, the guitar sounded like crap, and you could barely hear it and all, mine turned out broken thats why i got it exchanged but thanks
ahhh,so that's your problem huh.Well clearly it's different than mine....Mine was like the amp were making an electric buzz kinda thing which is kinda annoying lol....I think the problem is the cable.....
It can be one of a few things.... Broken guitar cable, loose jack socket on amp or guitar, broken solder in guitar. If its not any of those, take the earth lead off the amp power cable! Could even be a dimmer switch in the room or a fluorescent light bulb. LOL It's gotta be one of them... good luck...
Hahaha! I got one of those when I first started. I had it for about three months. That was all I could take. I went and bought a Marshal amp, and an Epiphone Les Paul.
Hey man, I have a Laney 120GC amp, and I can't seem to find the right settings for a good rock / hard rock sound, any suggestions would be very highly appreciated, thank you.
low/bass in between 6 and 8, mids from 2 to 5, high all the way up, and gain around 5 for a twang, 8 for rock, and crank it to 10 for hard rock and metal
noob question: i have a line 6 30 watt amp and a jackson guitar. when I play the "clean" version it always seems very distorted and there sounds like rain drops as an echo. is it the guitar doing that or am i messing something up on the amp?
need help! i have an freedom amplifier from aldi about 40 watts i think i need a rock sound for say a halo 2 theme song! or heavy metal!!!! i have drive gain, drive level, trebal, bass, notch gain and l sharp witha swtich?!?!?!?!?!
Help, I need rock settings for my amp! :s please! I have a line 6 spider 3 amp and my settings are :channels: clean, crunch,metal and insane; DRIVE: 0 to 8; Bass 0 to 8 ;DRIVE 0 to 8 ;VOL;MASTER 0 to 8, please help.
i put mine to those setting and it didnt sound like the rocky sound...does that mean my guitar is not tuned propely???i really want to get a rock sound help :S
Looks like I played - Asus2, Cadd9, G, D/F* - it was just one of those noodles you make up on the spot - those chords always sound good together in any order you want to play them :-) BTW Em would also fit the list...
Hey, i just got a electric guitar just yesterday, and i wanted my guitar to sound like 4:21, so turned the gain to 10 and the volume to 4, but for some reason it dosn't sound like it, and its proble because my guitar is brand new and i haven't tuned it yet, and the MAIN thing i hear is some buzzing sound, or like the sound when the tv cable goes out and it makes that scraty sound.
Hi Spechs, Here's the best and quickest way I have found with the kit you have there - Use the Bridge Pickup, make sure all guitar dials are on 10. Turn the gain on your amp on full as well as the Bass. Then, as you play, mess around with the Treble on the amp until you get close to the sound you want. Most likely you will end up with the TReble at around 6-8. Have fun and let me know hoe you get on, Richard
Hey again, Richard. I assume I'll have to pick up a new amp as I progress with learning the guitar to get the sound I want, as I have no gain dial on my amp. :( Thanks for the tips though, and great video.
That's too bad!!! If you like the general sound of the amp, you could always get yourself a distortion pedal instead. Or even a multi effects pedal? Have a quick look at my effects video to see what the pedals look like so you know what I am gassing on about!
Meh, well, what this lesson just told us is that you need to experience with the sounds of the guitar by changing one setting at a time. Not useful at all.
Ha Ha! It is actually that simple - sorry but there is no Fairy Dust! LOL. Could you let me know what you would like to see more of and I will try and help you out...Richard

quit being a pussy and accept that fact that you're a dumbass. you didn't know an amp had to be plugged in to work, that makes you a fucktard.

You know what, I might be a fucktard? But look at yourself, fighting with a girl? no no let me be more specific, FIGHTING WITH SOMEONE OVER THE INTERNET, you need to add that to your 25 stupidest things, Number one! I don't got time for you, pathetic bastard, Is that the way you talk to your mom? Because if not then you need to tell her that bullshit before you come charging like that on someone like me

i have the same problem, since its been 2 months i imagine u figured it out,
can u tell me what u did
namekman01 2 years ago
Yeah well for one thing i figured out im a REAL big retard, theyrs two wires, both go into the amp and one end goes into your guitar one goes into the wall, the switch on your wall, lol its hard to explain and my amp still didn't work, and if it doesn't then try to turn on the button or mess around wit it a bit, if it still doesnt work its screwed i figured dat wit mines and i got a new one im not sure how to fix a amp, but yu can search it up
soulxreaper56 2 years ago
by any chance, i ur quitar a 222 First Act?
my amp buzes, when i touch the coords it makes a sound, but only a diff buzz (and if u use a pick nothin happens)
namekman01 2 years ago
yeepp wow, we have the same one then okay I'm really not going to understand your problem unless i see whats wrong....do you got your amp set up though? like two wires going into the amp and then one hooked to the guitar and one in the wall? and if you do and it still making that noise, maybe your wire [the one that goes in the guitar] myt be a little messed up or loose try holding it tighter in the guitar tell me if dat works if it doesn't ill go in details to help ya
soulxreaper56 2 years ago
hahaha, it first act blows, i got it back to the store (i tried it there of course) now it works,
i think they keep falkin the amp desing, kinda hard to build the electric guitar wrong
oh well, least i got something to do other that sports an video games now, and its cheap(by comparison)

yepp lol
soulxreaper56 2 years ago
Hey dude,is the noise that you're talking about is like the buzzing problem?Coz I'm having a problem with the buzzing thing and it's really annoying especially when I switched it to distortion!!!
mambo81811 2 years ago
No, when i switched the amp on, no sound came, the guitar sounded like crap, and you could barely hear it and all, mine turned out broken thats why i got it exchanged but thanks
soulxreaper56 2 years ago
ahhh,so that's your problem huh.Well clearly it's different than mine....Mine was like the amp were making an electric buzz kinda thing which is kinda annoying lol....I think the problem is the cable.....
mambo81811 2 years ago 2
It can be one of a few things.... Broken guitar cable, loose jack socket on amp or guitar, broken solder in guitar. If its not any of those, take the earth lead off the amp power cable! Could even be a dimmer switch in the room or a fluorescent light bulb. LOL It's gotta be one of them... good luck...

mambo81811 2 years ago
Hahaha! I got one of those when I first started. I had it for about three months. That was all I could take. I went and bought a Marshal amp, and an Epiphone Les Paul.

noob question: i have a line 6 30 watt amp and a jackson guitar. when I play the "clean" version it always seems very distorted and there sounds like rain drops as an echo. is it the guitar doing that or am i messing something up on the amp?

need help! i have an freedom amplifier from aldi about 40 watts i think i need a rock sound for say a halo 2 theme song! or heavy metal!!!! i have drive gain, drive level, trebal, bass, notch gain and l sharp witha swtich?!?!?!?!?!
Techno5niper 2 years ago
Hi. I have looked for your amp on the net and can't find a pic? I will attempt to offer you suggested settings for a rock sound:
Drive Gain - 10
Drive Level - as you want as its the volume
Treble - 7-8
Bass - 7-8
Notch Gain - not sure what that is?
Hope it helps, if not, let me know, Richard

thank you sooo much i just started today and my amp sounded weird and now it doesnt thank YOU!!
hughzshooz 2 years ago
My P.O.S Amplifier is quite diffrent to the one you have used, and it doenst have a GAIN dial on it.
The dials are as follows:
VOLUME
TREBLE
MIDDLE
BASS
MASTER
REVERB
And it has 3 holes for the ire to plug into - Bright , Normal and Headphones.
I'd buy a new Amp but im a bit tight on cash right now, Any help would be apreciated. Oh, the only thing the AMP says on it is LEAD 50 :S

I believe you must turn the amplifier on, or perhaps it's not plugged in.

Well Vox Pathfinder 10 is also cheap and it has a great distortion for such a small amp. I actually play Metallica with it no problem.

nicholasbang 3 years ago
Hey, i just got a electric guitar just yesterday, and i wanted my guitar to sound like 4:21, so turned the gain to 10 and the volume to 4, but for some reason it dosn't sound like it, and its proble because my guitar is brand new and i haven't tuned it yet, and the MAIN thing i hear is some buzzing sound, or like the sound when the tv cable goes out and it makes that scraty sound.

Hey, I'm just starting out - and I only have bass and treble on my amp, how can I get a richer, more "metal" sound with my amp? Thanks.
spechs 3 years ago
Hi Spechs, Here's the best and quickest way I have found with the kit you have there - Use the Bridge Pickup, make sure all guitar dials are on 10. Turn the gain on your amp on full as well as the Bass. Then, as you play, mess around with the Treble on the amp until you get close to the sound you want. Most likely you will end up with the TReble at around 6-8. Have fun and let me know hoe you get on, Richard
richarddeyn 3 years ago
Hey again, Richard. I assume I'll have to pick up a new amp as I progress with learning the guitar to get the sound I want, as I have no gain dial on my amp. :( Thanks for the tips though, and great video.
spechs 3 years ago
That's too bad!!! If you like the general sound of the amp, you could always get yourself a distortion pedal instead. Or even a multi effects pedal? Have a quick look at my effects video to see what the pedals look like so you know what I am gassing on about!
richarddeyn 3 years ago
Hmm, I'll keep that in mind, thanks! I'll take a look at your other videos too.

Meh, well, what this lesson just told us is that you need to experience with the sounds of the guitar by changing one setting at a time. Not useful at all.
