Gibson SG Standard Demo, Metroamp JTM45

Hey folks: Here's a demo of my '03 Gibson SG Standard. I'm playing through a Metroamp JTM45 amp that I built. The cab has one Celestion Greenback and one Vintage 30 in it. My pedal board has only a TS-9 tube screamer and some reverb on at the moment.

The audio was captured with a Sennheiser e609 guitar mic into a Korg D-888 multi-track. I mixed it down with the narrations and then manually synchronized to the video footage.

Enjoy!

Is there much of a difference between a JTM45 with KT66's and a Plexi 1987x with EL34's?

I am asking as i have both amps, but my JTM has the stock 5883 valves.

Savage playing by the way.....

Thanks for the compliments. I really don't know about the difference. I've never owned a Marshall with EL84's. Prior to this one, I'd only owned Fender amps. Sorry I can't help more.

I wish all YouTube reviews were this good. You did a great job talking about th important stuff and playing various rhythms and leads. Very nice job.

BTW, I will be buying a MetroAmp to build with my son this Christmas. I am undecided about the JTM45, the 50w Plexi, or even the 100w PPIMV (can remove 2 tubes for 50 watts, or kick it up to outside venues volume with 4 EL34's!)

I really like the JTM45. I can tell you though that the numbers can fool you. This mother is loud even though it's only 30W. I usually play small blues clubs and stuff and I rarely get to really stretch it's legs. I'd really like to build another Marshall kit, but I just don't need it. Good luck with your build!

So your running the tube screamer in channel one? Are your channels jumped? I just got my JTM 45 and am playing aroun with different configurations. I have a 70's grey DOD 250 though. Are oyu running the el34's?

[fatnecks]

Yeah I've got the channels jumped. This amp is a kit version that used KT66 tubes, NOT the EL34's....... Good luck!

I would love to hear this without the tubescreamer and reverb, even with the JTM on low volume. And AC/DC on the bridge p/u. Nice vid. *****

[lordkram]

aint nothing like a jtm45 with a tube screamer. after playing one thats all you will ever want.

[JCM1325]

Damn....awesome playing. Are those the stock 498's in your SG? And where can I find England-made Celestions?
