MARSHALL JTM45 - What an awesome amp.

Dude! That opening tune was fire! Probably my favorite playing you've done here yet! I'm in a strat-into-plexi phase right now myself, so maybe I'm biased. I don't know... but I thought it was really great.

All i can say is Marshall and old amps they just kick butt! JTM 45 is a power house. Wow the playing was so sweet it made me cry! JTM 45 power tubes with 5881 and 1987x EL34 tubes the sound. That was what got Marshall as it is today.

[@davidgerlach1132]

For some reason, after learning great deal from all your videos, I don't see you very inspired by the JTM, I can see it in your eyes. What I do know, is that when you fire up the Marshall 1987X 50-watt Plexi your eyes light up, you forget your videotaping, you become more inspired, and you inspire me, and others. I want a Marshall 1987X 50-watt Plexi... ;)

You have produced the best cleans I've heard someone get out of this great amp on the youtube demos.

[@EugeValovirta230V]

Glad to hear! Thanks!

[@willdenham]

@@EugeValovirta230V I have a JTM45 build ordered to arrive in a month. Pretty excited but I gotta' say, the more I have been researching the Plexi/JTM sound the more interested I have become in the 1959 Plexi. I just assumed that because the JTM was a spec copy of the Bassman that it would be top of the heap but I wasn't really considering how the bass frequency on the late 60's early 70's Super Leads is much tighter and punchier due to the SS rectifier. A tube rectifier just sounded soooo great to me (the more valves the better) but I wasn't thinking about why Jim Marshall changed it to SS. Too late the JTM is already ordered, but I feel like the Plexi SLP is probably more of what I am seeking as I just love 70's AC/DC, Zep, and of course Free and that's kind of where I want my tone to sit. Oh well at least it's a spec Marshall. If I like it they do have a 1959 spec amp as well and it's affordable. I really like your music BTW, you seem to have a real natural touch.

[@andrus108]

Yay! I like mine with bass off and mids all the way, I also Fender-ized it even further by replacing the first 12AX7 with AY7 - all it really does is give more control over volume before break up, with AX7 it got crunchy around 4, with AY around 6-7, tone is the same. And yeah, set it to break up then use drives and fuzzes to get different flavours of higher gain, so much great stuff!

[@danielconrad764]

Workaround is to get a fryette power station attenuator connected (trust me, you'll want these old marshalls attenuated if you're jamming at home!) so that you could use the effects loop on the attenuator. Some amp switching units even allow the attenuator (and therefore the effects in effects loop) to switch with the amp.

Solid state rectifier just gives a faster attack which is very obvious in the SV20. Every amp should have a switch for this just like the Mesa Boogie Rectifier.

Absolutely correct, the best pedal platform you can buy. I bought one in 1990 for that very reason and haven't changed my opinion in all that time. Mine has 6L6'S in the power amp and 7025's in the preamp, all Groove Tube.

Never send more impedances from amp to a cab / reactive load than what it is designed to get ’cos if you do so you’ll probably blow up the amp and the cab / load. Less is ok; the volume is just a bit quieter then.

I’ve already done that 😎: JCM800 & 1987x. Well I actually have three 800s 😁. I like them the most 👌.
