You CAN get a YJM in rosewood. This is a 1998 model (Manufactured 1997) YJM model the frets ARE scalloped and the body id not really light at all. look at the other vids and you will see.
hey man.. im no expert.. but whats helped my leaps and bounds is doing what shawn lane said... play it s fast as you can, whether it be clean or not.. then clean up your playing over time.. thats truely the only way ive found thats helpful in playing his runs and stuff.. but with arppegios and two/three string sweeps you really have to concentrate on picking technique.. watch rising force best on youtube lesson.. good explanation of sweep picking technique there. rock on bro!!
Terrific tone AJ - with and without the overdrive. I have a Strat that sounds rather thin despite pushing the mids on my amp. Which pickups does your guitar have? Any other tone tips? Thx!!!
also mate, great playing!! check out my vid of adagio, its nothing special, i recorded it like a year ago, but its using my YJM308 on a 30 watt all valve.
Great tone. I ordered that pedal last week and after hearing this I'm glad I did. Very inspirational playing, my friend. And there isn't anything wrong with that amp, people. Croist.
Theres nothing wrong with it, Just wouldnt say it's a tonehouds dream, I personally think theyre a little icepicky in the high freq department, allthough a good solid state amp, you would sound even better through a re-issued plexi, they are renound for their brilliant second and third order harmonics that solid state technology cannot reproduce.
Fair enough, I know its not going to give me what an all tube amp would. But, I only paid 150 for the valvestate and its lasted through 3 years of gigging without a prob and the JCM's or plexis go for 1k or higher used.
You mean the head? No I didnt wrap that, though it is cool, I bought it like that off of eBay:P not that hard to do someone just took an American flag or star pattern fabric and wrapped the grill with it then bead blasted the white Marshall logo to silver (which is under the white)
1:05 is painfully bright. It actually hurts my ears.

Ive got the DOD YJM308, its pretty nice, alot of gain, but also can be used in almost a bluesy way. its a nice pedal.

I cant believe your playing a Valvestate though! ;]
Is that a DOD-250 re-issue?
72superlead 5 years ago
Whats wrong with the valvestate?:) It is a DOD YJM 308. Im waiting for a good JCM800 or 900 to come around for a decent price.
