Why did you change pickups?

I can't understand purchasing a custom shop guitar. Buy a good sounding strat with nitro finish have the neck refreted with jumbo frets. A lot cheaper and will sound just as good if not better.

What do you think about the Fast Track 2? The Dimarzio site lists it as super bassy and dark but it sounds tight here, bit of a chopped treble, but more midrangey than anything. Sounds pretty cool to me. What value pots are you using?

I have this amp and a 2204 clone. Played one against the other and I was like mehh this 2203KK amp is not that great. Added a choke to it. Then I played on a proper volume around 12 o'clock and holy shit😮 This amp does not sound great at low volumes!!! But when you crank it it will rip the flesh out of your body! It is more scooped and clean than a regular 2203. Boost this puppy with BB preamp engage the beast mode at minimum level(just for the wonderful gate) And you have a killer trash metal machine.

Ben jij toevallig Stefan van Ertvelde (geweest) ? Dan heb ik u ooit eens zien spelen aan de molen, super lang geleden.

Stephan, which one inspires you the most if there is only one?

This looks like a guitar SRV would have played. Very commendable playing!

An amazing collection! The custom made guitar at 1:55 is if Gibson and Dean got together to make the "LP Cadillac"!

3:42 ripps!

That is one of the best solos I have witnessed....period! Thanks for sharing!

Great!

What song are you playing at 1:00 ?

I have the plugin version but I noticed since the first time i use it it has really good clean tone...... also the plugin version is really good for Slash GNR tone... Idk if other people might think it's not the same but for me it works

Looks like you spend some time on Chastain videoschool

Nice tone.

Sounds perfectly awesome. Maybe it's my mood or a bit of nostalgia caught from a familiar lick, but some of those riffs remind me of Ty Tabor.

Absolutely awesome true heavy metal tone 👍🤘

Hey, still have the JVM410H? Wondering how it and the Friedman BE-100 Deluxe compare. Waiting for a new speaker cabinet to dial my Friedman in to A/B them.

the more I hear the jcm800 kk in standard jcm800 fashion the more I want one you have a nice tone mate

OK !

Awesome 😎

Man your technique is very unique. Pretty cool. I have an Engl Savage 120 and have been pondering adding a BE 100 deluxe to the amp collection. Seems to cover all genres really well.

holy shit

Ik ben ook een Yamaha fan,die gitaren zijn supergoed.Mooi gespeeld hoor👌

Good stuff, My BE100D arrives this week hopefully!

Sounds great!! These are future classics for sure!!

Great amp. Very good cleans and crunch. Also... if you use an od pedal (i use precisión Drive) you get a good modern metal. I love mine. And sometimes i prefer over my Orange rockerverb MKII

That picking style looks so uncomfortable.

I love the JP60, just waiting for the right used JP6. The tremelo systems are very playable to me, I like Bigsbys first, but for heavier sounds this works well.

Very Nyce my friend! You have skillz, can you write?

Kick ass Tone!😅

What pups?

What’s your thoughts on the Pacifica? Like that color too.

That guitar sounds great!

Toch verdienstelijk! Je bent er zo goed als bijna. Ik heb een jaar zitten oefenen op dat stuk en haal bij lange na niet de snelheid waarmee jij dat speelt

Amazing material! PS what gear u using? Tone Is bliss!

So without the beast section engaged, can you get a clean tone with the gain turned up on the amp but the volume rolled off on the guitar like the regular 2203

thanks man!

I don't have an (original) 2203 anymore, but I had a 2203 and a 2204 in the eighties and sold them when I bought a TSL 100 in 1998. Never should have done that. What I remember from that original 2203 compared to my 2203KK/without the "beast" is that it had more headroom. It had more bass projection and a little less distortion at lower volume (hence the more headroom; although that original 2203 was also 100W, it was a lot louder. My 50 W 2204 was a lot like the 2203KK..

do you have a jcm 800 2003 to compare with the jcm 800 kk without the beast?? any recording?

I would buy an old 2203 from the eighties.

In the UK this amp is WAY cheaper then the 2203 reissue. If it was your own money would you buy the 2203kk and ignore the beast section or save a bit harder and buy a 2203 reissue?

nice vid - glad to finally see a good demo of this amp without the beast mode on.

@turboblues Thank a lot for the reply, i ask because I have the 2203kk (really happy with it) but would like something more versatile, so i'm looking at the JVM as an alternative. Thanks again for your insight.

Of course the JVM has 4 channels (great clean channel) so if I had to choose 1 I would go with the JVM.

@cplmac Thanks for the comment. I like both : I prefer the crunch sound of the 2203KK (can't get that sound out of my JVM), but I like the higher gain sounds of the JVM, there's more low end thumb (thanks to the resonance knob). On the other hand there is the clear note articulation of the KK at high gain settings with beast section on. So there are pros and cons.

Your videos are by far the best examples of what this amp can do. Great playing and fantastic tone! As far as tone goes, this or the JVM?
