hey really nice man! really! but it seems your not getting enough Wah outta that Vox, do you have the setting low on it? i dont use a Vox wah i use an old Morley Wah and i get a great wah wah outta that.
@JimilalaHendrix Wait a minute. Sorry, but I don't understand. I have an '89 Fender Strat, a VOX Wah lke yours. My amp is a Marshall G80R CD, its a transistors amp, and I use the distortion that it's got. It's a good amp, but I tend to leave the Wah ON to play because I like the crunch that it adds to the sound.
What I'm trayin to say is that I can't find the Hendrix tone
Oh yes, I'm sorry. You need to buy a tube amp, and thats volume use all the way. This is best overdrive tone. Jimi use the Marshall jmp 100, and use the volume pot full. If do you buy an overdrive, the tone isn't that. The tube amp is the solution. can not be it replaced!
@JimilalaHendrix Yeah, I see what you mean, and by the way, I'm from Argentina so if you speak spanish we can save the english translation!! haha. I know that tube amps can't be replaced but my Marshall amp sounds great and I don't have the money to get a jmp 100!! So, for now, Im gonna have to setle wit what I've got
Yes, most of the time a simple setup will always give the best tone. Great playing, your really got Jimi's vibe down. Have you ever used an Octavio, like what Hendrix used specially with Band of Gypsys? If so, where do you put Octavio in the pedal chain and where in the pedal chain would you the univibe pedal?
It sounds good, but why soes every video I see with a fuzz face have to be played through a strat. Id like to hear it through a les paul, anyone know how it sounds?
great tone with the wah before the fuzz. One problem I find when dealing with fuzzes is that they generally sound good alone, but when you play with a band it gets hard to hear them. That may be the reason for many guys turn their fuzz faces with the volume knob all the way up. I own the dunlop JH-F1too, I think it has a very good fuzz tone.
@pastyourhorizon this may just be the magic about fuzzes - making them sound good and learning how to control them. I'm still half way through. The more I learn about my fuzz face and the more I learn to control it, the more I like it.
Mhmm.My first fuzz pedal was a Big Muff Pi, which I got when I first started playing. Eventually I sold that pedal because I didn't like it and was more interested in a more mellow sort of fuzz(if that makes any sense), like a Keeley Fuzzhead.Went with the Analogman Sunface BC-108 and I use that for songs such as Crossroads. It doesn't exactly do the Hendrix sort of sound like the Fuzz Face so I'm planning on getting a fuzz face pretty soon so I can have both pedals on my board.
@pastyourhorizon didnt know the big muff sounds different from a fuzz face. I know what you mean by mellow fuzz. My first fuzz was a boss fz-5, which sounded terrible, too thin, almost like a cheap distortion. And it was digital - which means no real fuzz circutry. I got fed up of this fuzz and bought the dunlop jh-f1. Yea, you are right - I think it does pretty well in the hendrix type of thing, but as someone said, its not the "hendrix-in-a-box" kinda thing. One must learn how to use it.
@pastyourhorizon talking about mellow fuzztone, I think the dunlop fh-j1 is exactly about this. Its thick and full even in the bridge pickup, as a good fuzz face should be. Ive realized from hendrix videos that sometimes his tone sounded real bassy, and then you'd look at his pickup switch and it would be in the bridge. Then I thought "thats how a good fuzz should work", and went about it. But again, its a matter of gear too. The amp factor is very determinant in the tone of a fuzzface.
Damn. This is great. Great playing. Great tone. I guess I'm surprised you're able to get so many tones so close to Hendrix with just 2 pedals. Ha! Do you think a Germanium transistor can come close to this Silicon sound, assuming this is a BC-108?
@center2cents JH F1 has a great tone (BC-108), but the MJM London Fuzz is the best for me! It has new old stock Germanium transistor. London Fuzz is a masterpiece. Look for it on my channel!
@JimilalaHendrix Yes! I was hoping you'd say this because before I saw your vid, I'd just ordered a Ge Fuzz and almost regretted it! lol Watched your MJM vid....very nice. Your Hendrix sounds great.......rock on.
@brimm13 This Wah pedal is a Vox v847 mod to Vintage Italian V846 . (www003.upp.so-net.ne.jp/kazuhee/ewahmod1R.htm). And it has the one more modification: "Foxrox Wah Retrofit" Look for it on the web!

Sorry, but i can't help you. I use tube amp (Mrashall 1959 slp), fuzz face and vox wah. This setup is the best Hendrixs tone.
