@alpha1shadow Now, I really dislike Zakk...but since when does he use MG amps??? Honestly, they sound worse than Crate amps to me, and that's saying something. Crate can't even get valve amps right!
@chuckelator lol I was trolling. It's a piece of shit. He uses it to promote Marshall to the beginners but he doesn't use it in anything that people pay to hear. The reason why he makes it sound decent is because it's all in the hands.
Anyone tried the JVM series? If not, try one out and it will blow you away. Same transformers as the JCM 800 series, but with way more flexability and an array of tones to die for. Best clean ever right through to gains that are almost too much, (for me at least!)
The mid gains are great for blues rock etc and would compete with any JCM800.
I know. I own them both... JCM 2203/2205/JVM 205 through 1960AX cab; 4x12 Greenbacks
Awesome tone, but which one would you suggest to a guy who likes to play metallica, GnR, Iron Maiden, and some other classic rock/metal stuff from 80s? 2210 or 2203?
hello im getting a new amp either a jcm 800 900 2000 or vox ac 30 i really wanna get a nice brown sound like van halen and tight overdrive like guns n roses , kiss and ozzy ousbourne but i will also need to clean up the sound to get a jimi hendrix or pink floyd tone which amp should i get and those the jcm 800 take pedals well because it has no fx loop thanks give me opinions .
@12345678ix dude get a peavey 5150 with an early 900 cab or an 800 cab because the speakers in the cab would be real made in England not china and if you want to stick with Marshall go with the 2000 dsl 50 or 100 no tsl they don't sound as good i had both and still have the dsl 50 full and love it and right next to it is my 2 5150s and love them too haha but the vox wont get you there the 800s take pedals well but tend to thin out..
That's got to be the most dynamic sounding 2205 I've ever heard. Mine is in the shop getting all the filter caps replaced and the OT and Choke replaced for a Mercury.
i love marshalls, i wanna get one soon, ok im 15 and i play maybe 3 4 gigs a month so i know a jcm 800 would have the volume for a stage, but would it be good for a bedroom amp to? somone told me no it couldnt.
@XzaccYXguitarXplayer it would just turn down the volume on the head to like 1 or 2 and keep the volume on you guitar turned up to 10 and you should still get some good disortion
It wouldn't sound as good, so i'd reccomend to get a small, cheap practice amp for home use, and just use the marshall for gigs. But, if you really wanted to, it could be semi quiet.
This is the JCM800 with reverb right? Really nice sound there man. The sound those JCM800s put out is like porn to me. lol. I'm getting one as soon as I have the money.
i have 2 1982 JCM 800's half stack's that i use side by side with a 2007 MG 100HDFX Marshall half stack and you can not tell the differnce between them. the FDD switch on the Marshall MG 100HDFX is why. the Marshall MG 100HDFX IS SIMPLY A FANTASTIC AMP!!!! very worthy of the Marshall name and a lot more.
its been a work horse for me now over 2 years and not even a blown fuse. i hghly recommend this amp for the pro player.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
i pretty much made myself clear now go and learn how to even turn the amp on and dont bother me or any one else with your empty fucking bullshi.t the MG 100HDFX kicks ass end of story
lmao MGs are so fucking terrible its a disgrace to marshall. Cleans suck dick. overdrive and distortion are muddier than hell. cheesy shitty effects also. just stick with the JCM's and throw that shit out. and if u cant tell the difference between that solid state shit and a tube amp thats just sad
MG 100HDFX shouldnt even be put in the same sentance as a JCM nevermind the same catagory as they are a piece of shite, a rule of thumb basically is that if a marshall has anything other than valves in it, STAY THE FUCK AWAY FROM IT!!!!
@wellys I own an mg100 hdfx. Its not great, but its good. they aren't terrible and you cant argue. 300 bucks for 100 wats? fughet about it, But the new ones are ugly as shit
@JayLovePlaysGuitar I have an MG100FX, on its own it's pretty terrible, but my effects make it sound nice. 100 watt as well so that's quite good. Definetly want a JCM at one point though. Got it for £250.
@chuckelator Well, the stock speaker isn't great, but the amp has a killer tone. It was my first amp when I was 13 years old, and I still have it, and I'm 26 now.
I have a MG100DFX, and it does not come close to any of the JCM series amps I've played. I like the tone for practice use, but if I had the money I'd go straight to the JCM 800 or 2000.
I've had the MG100 for 5-6 years. Good amp to play on though, but it IS lacking.
man i have a 83' jcm 800 2203 that is the fucking BOMB. like it IS the fucking best amp money can buy, im 16 and i recieved it last XMAS totaly worth every freakin dime
Ah okey. But the sound still. It's not a bad sound. But it doesn't bare any resemblence to the Jcm800 classic sound.
But I'm still confused why it sounds like a distortion and not an overdrive. Are there any distortion clips in it or something? Cause a pure tube driven channel doesn't sound anything like that.
if you want a sound of tubes I exceed the level 4 at that time or even 1, the Cab as influences by 70% in the sound, I design and build amplifiers, is what I mean
@xdarrenx I have this amp. Supposedly there's a diode in the distortion channel. It's still very tubish, but it definitely has that extra edge to it when you turn the gain all the way up. To me, it still sounds like a classic JCM800, but slightly "hotrodded".
It's really a great amp, I love mine. The only problem is, it doesn't clean up all that well w/ the guitar volume, unless you're using a guitar with single coils. They clean up better through it for some reason.
@irarawkstarr Because a single coil has half the output. It doesn't hit the front of the amp has hard, therefore it cleans up easier. The signal is less compressed.
@jomirand the 2205 does not have a further gain stage than a 2204. The 2205 has diode clipping added to the gain channel for additional gain, not another stage
That can't be only the Amp drive? I played a jcm800 a few times and own a jcm900 myself, but I swear it sounds different, and has way less gain. It doesn't have that characteristic jcm800 drive sound.
dudes(and dudettes).. SINCE WHEN IS THAT A JCM 800? PAY CLOSE ATTENTION IT HAS 11 CONTROL KNOBS, 11! THE JCM 800 HAVE ONLY 6 CONTROL KNOBS, FROM LEFT TO RIGHT.. PRESENCE BASS MIDDLE TREBLE MASTER VOLUME AND PRE-AMP..
They used to make a 2-channel JCM800. It's rare and it's AWESOME. I had the priviledge of demo-ing one last year, but I didn't have the cash to take it home.
Since when do all JCM 800s have 6 knobs? The last I checked, some models (like the 2205 in this vid) had 11 knobs and other models (like the 2204) had 6.
Mine its a 2210, I told about Marshall 2210 that they said it isn't valve amps. A ver si te enteras amigo, que meas fuera de tiesto. Read carefully baby.
In the JCM 900 there tl072, in this amp only 2 diodes, in fact give it a genial tone, I built amplifiers and several plexis, and really this is one of my favourites
In 1964 The rectifier valve was eliminated and in his(her,your) place rectifying diodes were mounted. Diodes are mounted since 1964 in first plexis,don't believe people that don't know what they say.

hola, me encanta el marshall jcm 800, ¿que cancion es la que tocas al principio y de que grupo? esque se la he oido a mucha gente, gracias adelantadas. Salu2.
I'm such an asshole. Ive blown my money on the wrong shiet. I have a empty JCM800 head cabinet and empty 1960B cabinet sitting in my room for almost a year now.
2 Canales, uno limpio y otro Con Ganancia de 4 etapas eso aun no lo confirmo mirando el plano pero es de oreja, eso si mayor ganancia que un jcm normal, ademas tiene reverb, y 50W para no quedar sordo, genial
I bet you're a Kirk Hammett fan. Whatever you do DO NOT listen to him, his vibrato is the worst. Check out George Lynch, Yngwie, John Sykes, Jake E Lee, Gary Moore, all have great vibrato.
dude at the begining what song are you playing its right there in my mind..but i cant seem to think of it..it sounds soo familiar...and its bothering me lol..soo i ya could let me know..i would appreciate it
also, what kind of cab is that specifically? great sound by the way - it sounds like soooo may records - you want even want to boost it - tubescreamer anyone?
Wow! What a sound! Someone near by is buying one of these amp, but I a bit a nervous about the clean channel... can you a clean tone out of these amp? Ala red hot chili peppers?
Please do another video of this amp on the clean channel!

I'm such an asshole. Ive blown my money on the wrong shiet. I have a empty JCM800 head cabinet and empty 1960B cabinet sitting in my room for almost a year now.

your playing kicks ass too keep it up.
What were the settings on your dd-2? I've got a 2204 and a DD-2 but I always have trouble getting that type of reverberation from my DD-2.

jomirand 3 years ago
yo se eso, pero cuales son las specificaciones?
mmurcia47 3 years ago
2 Canales, uno limpio y otro Con Ganancia de 4 etapas eso aun no lo confirmo mirando el plano pero es de oreja, eso si mayor ganancia que un jcm normal, ademas tiene reverb, y 50W para no quedar sordo, genial
jomirand 3 years ago
ah ok,

I bet you're a Kirk Hammett fan. Whatever you do DO NOT listen to him, his vibrato is the worst. Check out George Lynch, Yngwie, John Sykes, Jake E Lee, Gary Moore, all have great vibrato.

what's the advantage of having the front diagonals open like that? I've only heard of open back cabinets...
GeorgeLynch1985 4 years ago
Ok... finish building your cab and cut your string ends off!! LOL!! Sounds AWESOME man!! Beautiful Marshall tone!!

Wow! What a sound! Someone near by is buying one of these amp, but I a bit a nervous about the clean channel... can you a clean tone out of these amp? Ala red hot chili peppers?
Please do another video of this amp on the clean channel!
maxlamenace987654321 4 years ago
thats great sound.maybe marshall should make open back speaker cabs.

what are your settings on the dd-2?
asssuckingfucker 4 years ago
are you using an overdrive pedal? I've never heard a JCM800 with that much gain before.
ovneb 4 years ago
Do not use any overdrive, this is the advantage of jcm800 2205, a stage has more power
jomirand 4 years ago
Ah cool, never knew that. My JCM800 2203 has barely more gain than a JMP! Anyway man, good playing and good tone!
ovneb 4 years ago
the reason the 2205 has more gain is because it's not an all tube amp, it distorts with clipping diodes like the JMP-1...
even due to that, it's not a bad amp..
asssuckingfucker 4 years ago
i think it's one of the best amps around!
plexilespaul 3 years ago
You don't know what are you saying, this amp has 5 pre-amp valves ECC83 and 4 EL34, don't write silly things please another time.
oscarmmf 3 years ago
obviously you haven't had a look at the schematics of this amp...so please don't reply when you don't know a shit.
asssuckingfucker 3 years ago 3
Don't tell more silly tnings, maybe you are confuse with an chinesse amp. Or you read schematics by reverse.
oscarmmf 3 years ago
the truth is silly?
take a look at the schematics and then we can talk. Marshall JCM 800 2205 and 2210 have clipping diodes for the distortion.
asssuckingfucker 3 years ago 3
i thought that they didn't add clipping diodes until after 1985?
