Marshall Valvestate VS100 Combo Demo

Here is another tone demo using a Marshall Valvestate VS100. Besides fixing the amp, I replaced the stock (and dead) Marshall 12AX7 with a new JJ Electronic 12AX7/ECC833.

The guitar is a custom strat-style guitar with a very cheap and light body (unknown wood), a floyd rose, mighty mite neck, and a GFS VEH bridge humbucker.

I repair amps in my area, so I get in a big variety of things to repair. Before I return the amp, I always put it through a full play test to make sure everything is working perfectly. I've decided to video tape those play tests and upload them to youtube so hopefully people can get a feel for the these amps if they are considering buying them, but are not able to play them in person. Also, please excuse my sloppy playing -- the point of these videos is only to demo the tone... I do them in 1 take, I just play whatever comes to mind to make sure the amp is working, and then I edit them down to size for youtube.

I'm thinking of buying this amp but i'm not quite sure about it yet so if you could tell me if: it's lound enough to performe in like clubs and stuff like that AND how much does it cost in your country ? Thanks, and great video.

[MRJSTUDIOS]

@TheMitko97 It is loud enough to play in most clubs. You'd have to be playing some really big place with a massive sound system before this would be too quiet. I think these generally go around $130-200 used in the USA.

PUt the translator on lol!

[MRJSTUDIOS]

@TheSideEffectsBand Haha, I just tried it... that's hilarious!

@MRJSTUDIOS

How loud is this amp? My drummer is really, REALLY loud, so would I be able to hear myself over him?

[MRJSTUDIOS]

@ChickenFaeces Probably, ya. I mean, it's not probably as loud as a 100 watt tube amp, but this thing can get REALLY loud.

@MRJSTUDIOS

Very cool. Ebay, here I come!

[webbguitar]

-Buy Marshall Valvestate combo

all of my wat

[Diehardslashfan]

@MRJSTUDIOS this was my first bigger amp and its fuckin great!i got mine for about 350€ and its quite loud!

[LegguhVids]

ive had this amp for like 15 years and its been a great bedroom amp, the preamp helps mimic the tube sound but its not anything amazing, definitely reliable tho

[165ole]

i have one of these too and it's a nice amp and would recommend one of these :) really great if you want to play some good rock n roll XD

[TheMitko97]

@MRJSTUDIOS Thanks for the reply. I was really sceptical about this amp being so cheap and at the same time loud, BIG and with many FX.
