Marshall Plexi 1959 SLP Jose Voodoo Mod

[conjering]

I can fix it if you want.

[KipThor]

Sick sound!!!!

[FungusLabel]

wow sounds really heavy!

[snail2008]

That sounds amazing! Nice mod.

[cybershane]

Man that is sweet... versatile, too it sounds. I would slap a Tube Screamer in front of it and use it for metal! :)

[infernalhammer]

The gain is too high for tight riffing.

[hirskdubbi]

@infernalhammer then i guess he'll have to bring down the gain a bit if he wants to do some tight riffing huh sparky?

[lespaulman1]

sounds just like my JCM800 when I boost it with a TS9 or SD-1

[Randallkoller]

2 minutes in and the guy is still shooting video and yip yapping

[gtoman0779]

I love It. I'm jealous!  Have Fun!!!!

[ZR4400]

@ 2:15 = Round and Round - Ratt

[FabC87]

what's the name of the song that starts at 2:15?

[crazygamer4x4]

That is my dream guitar sound !!! Perfect !!

[charles1967]

I'd love to hear this amp turned up a bit. It's hard to hear the character of the amp at such a low volume. Also, how does it sound with the preamp turned down a bit (cleaned up)?

[kblanchette8868]

sounds great , love that 80s sound

[Rizzy55]

sounds like an AM radio. Whats the point in displaying it sound this way...its like... check out Angelina Jolie though this window covered in mayonnaise

[zupperm]

@Rizzy55 You know. Some might actually want to see just that.

[Fireball69]

@Rizzy55 fuckin hilarious

[alanproaudio]

@Rizzy55 - I's not that bad. You can tell that, IN THE ROOM, it totally has that 80's sound. It's obvious that his video camera's mic lacks the headroom & bandwidth to really hear what's going on. If you were there in the room, it would be shakin your pant legs and sounding wicked.

[hunterjackkelly1]

i have the trueee 1959 plexi marshalls :) no remake

[kennykanowski]

That's not the jose deluxe mod cuz i have one from the man himself.He never put aboost toggle switch on his amps and always had effects loops.All though Jose 's effects loops usually sucked.

[6672rock]

is that guitar the Charvel Warren Dimartini model? By the way, nice distortion sound on that amp -- plenty of gain without losing note definition.

[smp156]

what does "front-loaded" mean? i'm planning to build my own 1x12 cab, and i'm always wanting to know new terms

btw, is this a VH song?

[redstripe41j]

Dude I just bought a Marshall 1987x because of these type of tones right here... GOOD SHIT man it sounds good! I might be sending mine off to voodoo now lol, your giving me more "GAS"

[theonlybyrone]

@redstripe41j Check out FJA Mods before you go to Voodoo.

[atomicpunk1695]

round and round!

[daddydan773]

sounds great man.did the boost mod from voodoo help a lot.I was thinking of sending my B52 at-100 to them to get the gain boost mod.I play alot of metal.keep rocking bro

[Kastralis]

it doesnt sound that great to me... maybe its the microphone?

[lonewolf7999]

Say what you all want, my brother-in-law rocks on the guitar!!! I've sat in on him jamming out and the man knows his guitars! I don't know about guitars or amps and all that but I've heard him play since I was little and it's crisp and he doesn't need sheet music to play (plays by ear). Five stars all the way dude!!!!

[FastRedPonyCar]

Doesn't sound that bad but IMO should have left it stock and just bought a quickrod or something like that if this is the sound you wanted.

If that was an original 59 then you probably abolished any hopes of it's collectiblity and/or resale value. Kit amps and re-issues are for modding.

[druckpig]

@FASTPONYREDCAR a 1959 slp is a reissue . 1959 is the model not the year

[splirb]

This amp doesn't sound like a JCM800. I own an original and had it modified as well for many years. I did have it brought back to stock though. I also own an SLX which can crunch the balls of a bull but this doesn't sound like that either. I think it does sound like a killer modified plexi! I think the thin sound is the guitar. I'd like to hear a nice Gibson thru that thing I bet it would roar!!

[JIMMYJIBLETS]

i wish i could say this sounded awesome, im trying hard to like it, but to me this is just a very expensive JCM00 in a plexi case. the only mod this amp ever really needs is a master volume, and maybe a reverb or tremolo

[JIMMYJIBLETS]

**JCM800

[shaneclemens]

Sounds good to me man, keep rockin! \m/

[dlowshitemister]

He should have saved him the trouble of buying the amp and sending it in to get a mod. The amp doesn't really sound a plexi at all. he should of just bought a jcm 800 thats what this amp sounds like to me. waste of a plexi

[budubum]

this doesnt sound anything like an 800. 800 doesnt have this kind of gain

[notuern]

I dont think it sounds like a JCM800, this one lets through much more of the string in the sound and is voiced differently.

Also, in order to get this sound in a JCM800 you would need the same type of transformer, which would mean slaughtering a plexi to get a transformer for tje JCM800.

[druckpig]

Hi ,very nice jose sound, which 1959 ? is it the pcb reissue, how essential is the isp is it really noisy without it.

how does the amp sound cranked does it hold together ? or does it get loose or thin out, your amp sounds spot on for the jose compared to other clips ive heard especially as its not w/d/w ,I just got a cameron plexi reissue with the aldrich mod,also an amazing sound, the jose mod is next on my wish list although I dont think I would go with voodoo as Im in the uk,cheers

[TeenCretin]

I think it's fucking rediculous to take this amp....which costs like 2000 bucks, and let some dillwill "mod" it to sound like everybody ele's "modded" amp. I have one of these and I like it totally stock. It's got an awesome clean tone at lower volume and crunches just fine at louder volume....if i want that "modded" stack tone, i plug in my Boss Metal Zone 2 or Zoom pedal and get all the modded tones i want....it's stupid to spend that much money and spend another thousand to do this!!

[ruffles272]

oh sorry i didn't see the assholes comment that you responded to... my mistake

[wasp1961]

Rockin with Ratt

[joeydahlia]

Get rid of the pedals ..cheap chords...and lower the bass side of your bridge pickup..and post a new video..

[TeenCretin]

Uh, why would you want to spend 500 bucks modding this amp to get this tone when you can buy a Zoom pedal that can nail this tone for 60 bucks?????????

[ski5150]

F'in THUNDEROUS....nice job, sounds great.

[layrus21]

great marshall!!!! the best marshall!!!

[TeenCretin]

Do i want this sound? No.

[guns1rose]

then fuck yourself up the rear.

[TeenCretin]

Guns1rose.....i can't fuck myself up the rear, so i fucked your Dad up his old ass.

He said i fucked him much better than you ever did with your tiny little 1" dick.

Ya fucggin cocksucker.

[guns1rose]

dumbshit a zoom pedal sounds like shitballs compared to this. THIS is tone.

[ruffles272]

dude seriously, fuck off.

[TeenCretin]

Ruffles.....BLOW ME, ASSHOLE

[ruffles272]

you'd like that wouldn't you?

[TeenCretin]

Your mom did.

[ruffles272]

just shut up. no one cares what you have to say. No one ever did.

[TeenCretin]

BWA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA!!!!

[TeenCretin]

RuffyPoo blows his Dad....and swallows.

[oblivion2k07]

What does the voodoo mod do to the sound?

[thelefty300]

Apparently it makes it sound like shit.

[terryhendrix6]

i still don't understand you get distortion on tube amps like this with minimal knobs unless you get natural overdrive by cranking the volume.

[kroftkarl]

RATT, sounds great (i know the guys that wrote that song)

[vbziggy]

I have no patience for amp/guitar videos that either 1) Waste the first 60 seconds showing video footage where I have no idea where this is going, 2) The author spends at least 60 seconds setting you up by describing all about the guitar and/or amp. 3) On a 2 or 3 channel amp, the author starts off demo'ing the clean channel.

I just want posters to stop talking and gimme the goods, then walk me thru the quieter channels, and THEN describe everything.

[Priole2000]

Amen to that, dude. If I had a dollar for every poorly designed demo I've seen on YouTube, I'd be Donald Trump rich by now.

We appreciate the effort, but I wish people would put a little more thought into shit before they post it.

[ARKITOOTHUS]

Think i could get that sound with a modded JCM 800 2203 or a modded JCM 2210?

[creepingescape]

if you mod it by voodoo its very possible. maybe better with the jcm 800.

[BrothuhV84]

Did u know thats pretty much the same amp that billie joe from green day used on green day records? Not saying i'm a huge fan of that band or anything but if you wanted you could easily nail that tone. Nice playing btw!

[sixstringrocker71]

great sound think at getting this or the bray mod 3 done to my amp very cool modded plexi sound

[stretch90]

hey, i was just wondering if you know how to find places that do amp mods. I'm thinking about getting a jtm45 and getting it modded.

[jtonessimo]

nice tone

tune your guitar a bit lol

[hum1]

great tone!! Is that the deluxe mod? Well played

[GusBounas]

by the way 3.24, very good playing of the song Push by dio :)

[GusBounas]

like the 80's. fantastic i love that sound . it's that i'm searching.

[TheConcreteFlower]

Sweet Amp and I like the PJ's :-)

[daneguitar]

Sounds f**king great!! Just like the 80's.

[ZR4400]

Thanks for positive comments. I have searched high and low for this tone and finally found it. The HG Jose Mod from Voodoo Amplification is the only modification done to this reissue 1959 SLP. The technicians at Voodoo listened to my requests and gave me everything that I had asked for and more! If you are into 80's crunch, ala Lynch, DeMartini, Aldrich, etc. give Trace a call at Voodoo Amps. You will not be disappointed!!

[xspidermanplayax]

@ZR4400 is it the standard,deluxe or platinum mod?

[evhfrankie]

@ZR4400 What's the song u play at 2:13 ?

[smh32]

ZR4400, When you say delux Jose Model, what is that exactly? When you originally bought the marshall head, did it come with built in distortion before you modified it. Did you use a distortion pedal on this video clip or is the distortion straight out of the head?

[liamwri]

you have to crank the original non master volume marshalls. they are very loud when you do this!

[maferron]

yeah, but if you use a power soak like a THD hotplate or a Dr. Z airbrake it will sound a lot better. If you replace the caps with sozo caps will also sound better. If you put an EQ (midboost) in the front and some delay in the loop will get real nice harmonic overdrive. A LAR-MAR PPIMV to control the volume may help as well.

[liamwri]

of course. don't forget the hot plate etc all cost a fair amount money. I have a PPIMV on my super bass. and TeenCretin no one gives a flying fuck if you want this sound or not. The owner does and he has found the tone he likes.

[TeenCretin]

BLOW ME, LIAM-WIENIE

[GrumpyMJK]

Great sounding amp man!

And my apologies to blakegamemaster,I intended to give you a thumbs up...and accidently clicked a thumbs down on his comment! oops...

[almightycrunch]

Obviously modded to sound like a modded Plexi, Just as a stock Plexi has a sound all its own, so does the Modded Plexi.

[TeenCretin]

BRILLIANT COMMENT!!!

[sas71]

and efx loop will clean that up a bit.

[blahman178]

it's sound good, don't get me wrong, but I don't understand why you'd mod a plexi to not sound like a plexi.

[blakegamemaster]

to get a van halen, dokken, ratt kinda sound my man!

[MetalScreamer510]

i love the sound of a marshall plexi!

[Rafcyk]

Shit. Great sounding. Very punchy, very sharp. Like Van Halens' amp:)

[mingsue2]

great tone !!!! Can you tell me where your dd3 settings are on this sound, lovely amp .Thanx
