I like how Captain says the JCM800 is the "closest" thing they have to what Angus used, while hiding there in the corner behind a plant and some guitars is a freaking PLEXI.

That's what i call Gear Snobbism. That kind of people usually don't hear those differences. They just say they do, and for them the most expensive gear from the most expensive company always sounds better. I've got to say that for AC-DC you just need a very specific gear tho. Almost the picks count there.

Matt has a very good point. They often blend their tones together because they played so tight and on the money, its sometimes really difficult to tell the tone apart. And Malcolm was an unbelievable guitarist but because he played rhythm for most of his career we never really got to see or hear his full vocabulary as a guitarist which I am convinced is there as its in his songwriting. Angus said many times Malcolm was a better guitarist than him. In many early AC/DC recordings and songs its actually Malcolm playing the lead guitar parts and solo's.

He used the 1959 model (100 watt no MV) they say JMP too but sound way diffrent then the later 'big letter' JMP's.

You guys should check out the original videos of the maker of this pedal (SoloDallas) playing this pedal with the correct Angus setup and gear. I love Anderton’s but they’ve not done justice to this pedal in terms of playing and gear used. Yes they’ve used an sg and a marshal, but there’s too much gain on the amp. Angus always uses his amps clean and that’s the way this pedal is meant to be used (if u wanna sound like Angus) . I’ve been following SoloDallas since 2010 and I’m a fan. He’s been an obsessive fan of Angus all his life and he’s probably the only guy who can REALLY play and sound like Angus does. Check out his videos and you’ll know what I’m talking about. This pedal is a great buy! 👍

I have the Storm pedal featured in this video and it's f*cking excellent if you use it in the right way. In this case, they pushed the amp a bit too much and therefore the pedal didn't add much to the sound and didn't really achieve its full potential. A bit less gain on the amp (crank it too for best results) and (for me) both controls on the storm at 1 - 3 o'clock with the optical limiter set to 0 and you'll be sailing. You have to remember, this isn't just a cool pedal, it's a very, very specific pedal to replicate a very, very specific sound from a very, very specific artist and it does that very, very well if you dial it in. Once you find that tone, you will never turn it off I guarantee you that. Sweet video all the same, glad you guys (and a UK retailer in general) is stocking it finally!

Money saving tip: use a TS9 in line, but only a tiny bit of drive, and crank up the volume. It's a pretty damn close approximation to the boost and compression that the original Ken Schaffer unit had. Btw Solodallas (which was his KZbin moniker) is one of the best impersonators of Angus you'll hear, gets that whole dynamic fingertip control feel.

Why is everyone complaining about the JCM800 here? Back in the late 70’s, Angus was using 2203 model Marshalls live anyway. They only used JTM45 amps during the Ballbreaker era, 1996 or so. The rest of the time it’s basically an old JTM50 (which is incredibly different from a jtm45) or modded 100w superleads. Just use your ears folks, the 2203 is fine for getting in that tonal ballpark.
@jzmacfish
@jzmacfish 6 жыл бұрын
Well mate, the JCM800 is way more modern compared to a 2203 JMP, the high end is much much more present. I'm sure they could have gone closer to Ang than what we heard, the amp was just prolly setup pretty shit for that kind of tone, so yeah a JTM might have done a better overall mix imho

On the video its cool to get some of this stuff, alot of 70s bands were using custom made stuff, strange devices and modded amps and when people bring out new gear close to that (Laney's TI Boost based on his modded rangemaster is one such thing) it is awesome.

It adds a bit of boost and compression. It rolls off the high end a bit. There is not that much difference between a JCM 800 and a JTM 45 but this is the master volume version and that is more gainy than a no. master volume Marshall. This is not the secret to Angus tone it’s mostly in his hands. On the video Let There Be Rock live in Paris 1979 Angus is using a guitar cable and he’s one of his best tones i think.

Re. earplugs - when I went for testing years ago (even though I do not play that loud), I was told that it is dangerous to use ordinary earplugs because everybody is different in the frequencies they need attenuating by using earplugs. I have read the same thing since (do not ask me where - that was years ago). Not sure if this is the current thinking, but the earplugs I had made (which targeted the frequencies I am sensitive to) work well.

It seems to me that it may be an unfair A/B comparison of the bare amp against the pedal.

The real question is does the pedal make a difference when the amp is optimised for it against the amp set differently to optimise it alone. Setting up that test could take some doing!

The SVDS (this circuit) was used in the studio for most of the Rhythm and Solo tracks of both those albums (confirmed). Of course, it's way overdone here. That's often the problem, the more gain the more sloppy it'll sound except you're a really good player (like Ang was).

Malcolm & Angus used a combo of Jcm800 1968 super lead and JTM 45 blended plus this device .plus Angus often doubled Malcolm on rhythm and then break away to solo.

Rob needs to continue wearing the "deal with it" shades for comment haters. Angus Young would be both an obvious and yet understated figurehead for a guitar product company. Plaster his face all over anything from pedals, amps, and speakers to string packets, slides, arm scrunchies. The possibilities of what guitarists would pay. He has enough credibility and I think his image already could be branded to where the average person can recognize a full grown man in school boy outfit

Sounds best through my laptop speakers. They add just a bit of compression but thicken the tone up quite a bit.

The only pedal I regret getting rid of. I have a Marshall Friedman modded be100 and felt like it already did that. But then I got a JTM 100 and boy it would have been awesome to have it.

For ac/dc tune, the gain almoust to clean on amp....almoust means almoust...but maybe at the edge,between clean and a little bit gain....thats the amp...and use schaffer replika bout tunes on 6....and then punch hard and feel it....(old marshall is best on this thing)....always think clean amp,and let the schaffer help a little bit...and before you know it....you sound like ac/dc a little bit :-)

Everyone in the comments is actually right. Their is too much gain for his sound. If you listen carefully, his guitar sound is quite clean sounding so he get get this full chords sounding ace. Hey Rob tune that damn guitar.

They are very nice sounding pedals and got some really nice tones, I would actually use the mini one for blues.However, this doesn't cut the mustard as far as Angus Young's sound goes, far too much gain and I think the Bass was a little off. I think once again people have missed the most important thing. Angus gets his sound by the way he plays, his touch and his techniques, he also uses specific pickups most of the time in his SG's. Also smaller things like his guitar intonation makes a difference. Now im not saying the pedals are a waste of time, they will get you a little closer to his sound but still not that close, but they sound pretty damn nice other than that in my opinion.

I dont't think there's anything wrong with reverb for the angus sound. maybe not on the early albums but his solo's on the mutt lange produced ones and later definitely have reverb! Not to mention the live sound has natural reverb anyway! people get too caught up on being a "purist" instead of concentrating on the playing and getting the general vibe right!

If you check out the latest rig run down on ac/dc you will see the the treb,mid and bass are all set around 3 ( not 3oclock but set at 3 ) I noticed this a few weeks ago during a rig rundown binge 😂. But apart from that keep up the good work . From one of your biggest fans in Australia
