My theory on why you think the amp sounds better now is because you're a better guitarist than you used to be. The better you are, the more you can adapt and be inspired by a piece of gear.
@@Javier-qk7ms no wrong. Mesa boogie people tweak. God knows why but anyway. He hit the channel switch and played it. You just saw that with your own eyes. No tweaking.
That has to be part of it, but also he played it live. Now he's into a modern load box and playing through IRs and studio monitors. Maybe it's easier to get the amp to its sweet spot, considering into a cab you'd have to hit crazy volumes to get clean-channel break-up.
You may get tired of hearing this, but I am still just amazed at how well you have done with your fitness. The amount of hardwork and discipline that must have taken is admirable.
glad you are still liking it, I've enjoyed watching the video a lot :). The Clean RED wasn't intended solely as a distorted channel, it was more thought to be used with low-ish output pickups and/or with the gain low (yes, the gain control can also be turned down :D). Since this channel has the gain after the tone controls you can use the EQ to shape the gain and the overtones. For example, when you turn the gain down, you can compensate the brightness with the treble control, when the gain is up you can tame it down removing bass and mids, etc... it is a matter of experimentation but there are some nice tones in that mode. And yes, the OD1 and OD2 have the same gain. OD2 has a bit less bass going through the gain stages to make it tighter and the EQ mid control is a bit lower than in OD1
The internet has its downsides but when the amp designer can chime in on stuff like this, it is epic. My AFD100 is coming out of storage soon! Can’t wait.
Hi Santiago, just wanted to chime in how much I love the jvm410. Couldn't imagine selling mine! Looking for new option for speakers, thinking 2x 12. I'm sure you did lots of experimenting when you were designing the amp. Any recommendations for speakers that pair well with your amp? Cheers mate 🇦🇺
@@Seanb576 hi, thanks for the compliments. Speakers... it's quite a personal choice but I'd check V30s or the Creambacks with the heavy magnet. Don't discard the G12T75 either, many people like them with this amp
Remember my mate buying a reissue custom SG when he had a solid state Crate crap-box. I had to say "Man! You NEED a valve amp now!". Quick trip to the local guitar shop, and low and behold, they'd just got the JVM 410 head in. He plugged in and it was on the crunch channel. I'll never forget his face! He was hooked, and walked out of the shop with the head and a 4x12 25 minutes later. He's still got the same amp 15 years later, and he wouldn't trade it for anything.

Honestly I've had a 410H for a while now and it is one solid, amazing sounding amp. The versatility in this thing is awesome. Will never get rid of it!
I was away from my JVM 410 for over a couple of years and recently fell in love with it again. It wasn't broken down, but I didn't need all those features in the venues I was playing at the time and used smaller amps with pedals. Now it is the only amp I want to play through again now. I use it with a Marshall 1960 410 cabinet. So many variable settings that you can get nearly any sound you want. Works great with analogue pedals as well as digital effects and even modeling through the clean stage.
I absolutely love the Marshall JVM! I have the 210H, less complicated, all the amazing tone I need. Honestly it's so under-rated. It almost feels like it was a series that was slept on by heavy guitar players. So many times I've showed up to record or we're playing live and the engineer or sound guy is just blown away by how good it sounds. I've gotten endless compliments on how great my amp sounds, and it's well deserved!

It's like they took everything that makes their voicings and tones awesome and packed it all into the JVM. Thanks for sharing this experience with your amp.
Rabea, you literally made me fall in love with my JVM410h again and gave me back a fond feeling of appreciation. Your playing is off the charts. Gotta see you live one day. Rock on mate!
That amp sounds stellar! I think over time (in your case, 14 years) what we like can change. You are now a very seasoned player. You now know a lot more than you did in 2007. I was so bummed when I missed your performance at NAMM several years ago. Cheers Rabea!
Yeah that clean channel brought me back to some of beautiful clean tones Hendrix was able to achieve. There are a lot of new amazing amps but let’s forget, almost every famous classic rock trio and band used Marshall’s to achieve their legendary tones. Sure some used HI-WATT and Vox but it was mostly Marshall’s that created the classic rocks tunes we all love.
Bought this head when it first came out, still have it today, had periods when I considered selling but every time I run it through a stack of Vintage 30 loaded 4 x 12s the grin I get keeps me from parting with it. For 80’s metal Dokken/White Lion/Ratt/Van Halen etc with the right guitar and pick ups this head is the bomb and nothing IMHO at the price I paid for it comes even close….glad you revisited it RM, great review 👍🏻😎🤘
Such a great player. More than anything, he enjoys himself and that REALLY comes through to the listener. I would much rather listen to someone that just loves what he is doing and has joy in their playing that listen to a bunch of notes that are technically impressive but lack any heart.
This is a Marshall that is truly a great amp. I’ve used a 2 ch 50watt combo version of this amp on and off for over 10yrs. Even the 2ch jvm covers much ground in the Marshallverse
The 410 is my favorite high gain amp of all time, and I’ve owned my fair share. It can quite literally do it all - and the direct out actually sounds good.
I had the exact same journey as you; the JVM was my first "proper" amp and I adored it when I got it, then I fell out of love with it at some point and was looking for something different. But after having built up a studio with several amps, I fell back in love. The JVM is hands down the best amp in the studio and I still play it pretty much every day. When I heard you didn't like the other channels I didn't quite understand what you were on about, so I'm glad you realized you've been sleeping on the clean in particular 😄 Loved the video, although I would have loved to have an amp-cam so I could see the settings!
Recently I searched for a Marshall amp again since for some reason I always searched for a Marshall kind of tone in other amps, I owned EVH, Laney, Randall, Mesa etc. But I always searched that bark that a Marshall has. I ran across this exact same JVM and it's versatility and tone got me buying it, it is now the center of my main rig :)
Hey there man ! I wanna get one too ! But stuck between the jvm or jcm 800 ppl on the Internet say the jvm doesn’t respond to touch as much the 800 does !! Is that true ?
@@ashwanthjerry2210 I've not played through a jcm 800. The Marshall JVM 410H responds great on all the channels. I've mainly played through Peavey and ENGL in the past. Marshalls have something special.
This has been my main amp for 10+ years. It always delivers. You can actually get great clean tones, some nice bluesy stuff, and monster gain, when you want it. It really does do everything quite well. Favorite channel? OD1 Orange!!! No doubt. Be careful though, it might actually swallow your Keyboard Player, whole. ; )
The ear keeps bending to the Nuno-inspired single note chugs. That amp is a monster, seemingly very little bass flubb on the Drop-C guitar. Excellent demo, passion abound!
My best friend used to have this amp right when it got released. He actually bought it the same week I bought myself an old JCM900, and I was always amazed with how good his amp sounded, and the tones he got out of it. We used to swear by the cleans which we absolutely loved, and the OD channels were amazing as well. I was so sad when he told me he sold it. I wish I bought it off him.
I’ve had my JVM 410 For about 10 years now. Two years ago I bought a Kemper stage for touring, because of its convenience. Covid hit, and touring was off. I was still using the Kemper in our studio. Two months ago tried the JVM again. Haven’t stopped using it since. It’s just magic with my Les Paul, Charvel, and Jackson. I works on blues to metal.
I used fast fret when I first started playing in 1987... haven’t touched it in decades, but as soon as you started talking about it, I swear I could feel it on my fingers.
I love my JVM215c, the clean channel is so underrated! Clean red is my go to crunch tone with this amp and your grin at 8:39 pretty encapsulates my opinion of the sound 🤘
I miss my 210 most of any amp that I've sold and that includes some nice Two Rock's and things I had to part with. The 210 was a nice mix of that versatility without the feature paralysis I felt with the 410.
The Tele sound is just icing...It really works as a Tele and more. Just watched the original 410 vid from years past... Love how both then and now, you play the ENTIRE rig as an instrument. Always playing what really works for each combination of tone, gain, delay, reverb, etc, ad infinitum... Not a bad sound to be heard here.
Wow. that sounds really nice on every channel. What a versatile beast. OD2 sounds tighter to me, but it loses something in the attack. OD1 is where it's at.
I love my 210h. I used to just crank the green lead channel. Nowadays i find myself using the clean orange setting with a little bit of gain for a pedal platform. Versatile amps
I had a 210h lost my job near Christmas a few years ago and had to sell it to get my girls Christmas prezzies, I loved that amp, miss it so much. What sucks is I know I will never get the chance to own another one 😭 and ever time I see one my heart breaks
Sucks to hear, but you are a great father and I'm sure they love you. I hope you will be able to get one again. Remember, life is ups and downs, so I'm sure, just like there is sun after the rain, you will have an up phase again. Best of luck
Greetings from Tasmania/Australia I've had Marshalls all my life ( Why, oh why did I part with my 70's JMP ? ) Even back in the 80's I visualised Marshall building an amp with all of the features we now take for granted in the JVM range. So, When Marshall came out with this back in circa: 2007'ish, I just had to have one! I started with the JVM-205C combo, and then a JVM-40H Head as I got back playing in a Rock band and now that I'm way older & could not be naffed carting around a 1960A Cab, I have gone back to a JVM-210C Combo. I love, love, love everything about it, as Rabea demonstrated in the 40H , it has all these tones and then some. I have to admit to being biased to Marshall & have been since I started playing back in the mid 70's, but hey when you've got the best you don't settle for anything less after that now ~ Do You ? For FUNCTIONALITY alone, it just has to be the Marshall JVM ... but then you drive this beast & enjoy taming it All those classic Marshall tones in one fabulous AMP ~ Well, that IS the best thrill as a Guitarist you could wish for. And when I say all the classic Marshall tones, you better believe it ... AND with a Clean tone that will surprise even a Fender purist in my 'umble opinion. Play it Loud, Play a Marshall ... End Of !
Your riff on the crunch green, it's so effortless for you, I'm like... that's friggin beautiful and without hesitation you continue on with amp banter haha :) You are truly an amazing artist dude.
I've been playing guitar for over 20 years. Had a lot of amps, from different brands. But then I stumbled upon this thing and decided to give it a try. HOLY SH1T, this amp is amazing, it's the tone I've been searching my whole life. It has something in the mid frequencies and the gain structure that I can't reach in other amps.
I have Friedman small box half stack, talking with one of fellow guitarist, saying I was looking to get the BE 100? He told me he just purchased the JVM 410 for 2,199.00!!! I checked the video demos out. Ran down to guitar center and made my purchase and they’re going to price match it!! Can’t wait and fired up!! All the Bells 🔔 and Whistles!!!!
Great sounds and inspiring playing. With reference to your summary though, I very much get the impression from watching this that it was designed to be a "Swiss army knife" of amps, so I'm very much looking forward to the follow up with a variety of different cabs attached and how it copes. Should keep you busy for the rest of summer! :D
Amazing playing. And excellent head. I agree with all your comments. Doesn't quite do the plexi thing. But def an amazing head for metal and heavier tones. It's its own thing. Thank you for making this vid! Very informative and amazing to watch.
Dannnnng! This is definitely in the top five of my favorite Rabea videos. Modalling is the top, but this one is like watching a big rig truck driving through a restaurant.
WOW!!!! I've always been a fan of Marshall amps and the JVM 410H is amazing! I also love the Mesa Mark series heads like the JP-2C. I would love to see a musician such as yourself, with your level of skill and expertise, do a side by side comparison of these two amps. Maybe some recommendations to the best speaker cabs for each head. P.S. LOVE your chops!!!!! Keep on rockin' in the free world!!!!
Dude…you know that feeling you get when you hear and feel an amp that gives you that knotted up feeling in your stomach,? That feeling of wanting to just rip a fretboard apart? That deep feeling of “ chills down your back” when you hear that tone? This is it!!! At least for me, that orange channel, wow bro!! I’ve played pretty much all Marshall for the last 30 yrs. Because it has that tone. That thing you wanna feel. This amp I’ve not owned, ZW 2203 jcm was my last Marshall purchase. The jvm is a monster amp.
One of the great things about having a lot of gear is that I’m often rotating what amp or guitar I’m using because if I haven’t used it in awhile it’ll feel new again and new is fun. It’s also a great way to break out of a writing rut.
I have the 210H and did not like it at first because of what you stated about the OD2 channel on the 410H. That is the gain stage on the 210H and I also felt it was too much. A simple MOD clipping the right capacitor made it the OD1 channel from the 410H. I love it now.
I used to have a Marshall 30th anniversary head and quad box and I absolutely loved it. It was the most amazing sounding amp. I played a Gibson Les Paul Axcess through it. You can't beat a Marshall. The JVM410H is the first Marshall I've seen that makes me want to blow a shit tonne of money on an amp again.
This was on my short list of amps t o buy in 2016, and it did impress, I like that it was a Marshall tweakers amp( I spent a week with a buddies), you can get loads of usable tones from it with a few knob twists or button presses. I decided to not to get it , but it is an incredible amp.
I don't even wait to watch the full video anymore, I just know it's gonna be a good video. JVM's are amazing tho! Happy to see it get some love recently! I really wanna get one in the future
I bought a jvm410c last year. In the last 6 months I bought a headrush peddleboard and frfr powered cabs. The jvm is getting a service and coming to next band practice. Thanks Bea!
Rabea, I dont always watch your videos but I am so glad I watched this one. Your playing is incredible my friend! The phat riffs and "percussive thing" really got me. Rock on!
I used to own this amp, and I sold it when I moved to the US from the UK, and I miss it terribly! The manual always did a great job of explaining the channels, clean green was based on a fender clean, then orange was a plexi and red a modded plexi. The crunch channel was similar to a JCM800, then orange and red were modded versions of 800's. OD1 was it's own thing, then OD2 was a mid frequency shifted down version. Ahh what a great amp. I'll own another one some day.
Marshall also had a beautiful clean I was shocked when I brought my first dsl 💯 super lead when cranked it had very Hendrix SRV tone I was blown away! While everyone thought fender was the only amp with great clean I knew marshall was just as wonderful after all Plexi is a bassman the 2 brands are more the same than people realize! Sounds great BTW
Got my 410c three years ago used for 1000e and the guy gifted me RACK case which is like 300 and something euros for this model and its a must. Now im a third owner. Spent last dime i had. First tube, never even baught a pedal before that and before that i used ( still do ) FENDER CHAMPION 40 so it was an UPGRADE! Pretty fair price, excellent condition, literally like new. WHATS IMPORTANT: If you are not where you thought you would be, was this a sound of an amp or its you... IT WILL SORT OUT !!! I was a young man who informed himself quite well before buying. A year and half of thirsting, watching videos on yt and exploring resulted in me getting confused af after purchasing the amp. Something was not right and i was not in a good place, nor did have the time to figure it out even tho i tried REALLY hard. If one hole was filled, the other would open. After changing some resistors, after changing tubes, everything is where i wanted it to be. But it took me 3 years, cuz life is a bitch. From the begging overdriven sound didnt sound quite well, and i thought " oh must be time to change some strings " , but no. What helped me the most are Facebook groups, the groups like " Tube Guitar Amplifiers " and the others. Im so grateful for people who are there to help and provide a proper information!!! Strongly recommend to get yourself in if you are not. If you dont know, there's someone who does and he will help you! Turns out Phaser Tube was bad, so i ordered some TAD's Premium and now im at peace. Also, Power tubes wore out while i was using them so i needed to change that too, got some more of TAD and boy do they sound amazing!! This maybe gotten away but i hope it helps someone!
Bea, you sound great through everything you use but I think the JVM sounds easily as good as any of the 'boutique' stuff out there. They put a silly amount of gain in the OD2 channel, but you can do any genre with the JVM and do it well IMO. Incredible amp that was ahead of it's time.
Had mine for a many years now. I also have the TSL 100, which I then retired. Love my JVM. I'll never sell it. It's sooo versatile! I use quite a lot less gain than you though. I use OD2 for Metallica style music, OD2 is more scooped, and that fits well with 80s style metal. I use OD1 for old-school metal, like Iron Maiden. Crunch for Rock (think ACDC), and Clean for... well, clean. I have all the channels on green stage, except the clean, which needs to be on orange to have the gain, if i remember correct. It'll act as a plexi on green, with the gain as a volume knob. Keeping then on green will dampen the gain a bit. That way, all the channels are VERY usable, unlike what you say, haha. To me, anyways! :) Love the video, JVM is still relevant, people just have to open their eyes, and not be stuck in the 60s saying "Hey man, Marshall should only make the plexi!" If people just tried it, they'd all realize why should they use their money on a JCM800 when they can have this. It's even CHEAPER TOO! :D

Way better player than Rob. IMO.
@@jameshall2219 thats not saying much 🙉
@@bohdankhmelnytsky9369 I think Rob became the Adam Sandler of music. We all moved on.
@@jameshall2219 maybe not that bad, but I feel ya there.
Yeah that clean channel brought me back to some of beautiful clean tones Hendrix was able to achieve. There are a lot of new amazing amps but let’s forget, almost every famous classic rock trio and band used Marshall’s to achieve their legendary tones. Sure some used HI-WATT and Vox but it was mostly Marshall’s that created the classic rocks tunes we all love.
Bought this head when it first came out, still have it today, had periods when I considered selling but every time I run it through a stack of Vintage 30 loaded 4 x 12s the grin I get keeps me from parting with it. For 80’s metal Dokken/White Lion/Ratt/Van Halen etc with the right guitar and pick ups this head is the bomb and nothing IMHO at the price I paid for it comes even close….glad you revisited it RM, great review 👍🏻😎🤘
Such a great player. More than anything, he enjoys himself and that REALLY comes through to the listener. I would much rather listen to someone that just loves what he is doing and has joy in their playing that listen to a bunch of notes that are technically impressive but lack any heart.
This is a Marshall that is truly a great amp. I’ve used a 2 ch 50watt combo version of this amp on and off for over 10yrs. Even the 2ch jvm covers much ground in the Marshallverse
The JVM410H is an amazing amp, doesn't get enough respect.
The 410 is my favorite high gain amp of all time, and I’ve owned my fair share. It can quite literally do it all - and the direct out actually sounds good.
Love the way that even on the highest gain it never seems to get muddy like a lot of amps do. A beast.
I had the exact same journey as you; the JVM was my first "proper" amp and I adored it when I got it, then I fell out of love with it at some point and was looking for something different. But after having built up a studio with several amps, I fell back in love. The JVM is hands down the best amp in the studio and I still play it pretty much every day. When I heard you didn't like the other channels I didn't quite understand what you were on about, so I'm glad you realized you've been sleeping on the clean in particular 😄 Loved the video, although I would have loved to have an amp-cam so I could see the settings!
Rabea and ola are favourite guitar related youtubers ever.
Thats one of the best sounding marshall tones ive ever heard. gorgeous
Amazing leads. And very very rock and roll sounding. The JVM is very very good. One of the best amps to play hair metal and hard'n'heavy.
Man this has made me really miss toska now
The JVM is 100% the sound I always associate with Bea.
Recently I searched for a Marshall amp again since for some reason I always searched for a Marshall kind of tone in other amps, I owned EVH, Laney, Randall, Mesa etc. But I always searched that bark that a Marshall has.
I ran across this exact same JVM and it's versatility and tone got me buying it, it is now the center of my main rig :)
I own the Marshall JVM 410H and I am very happy with it. Awesome tones and a great sounding clean channel!
Hey there man ! I wanna get one too ! But stuck between the jvm or jcm 800 ppl on the Internet say the jvm doesn’t respond to touch as much the 800 does !! Is that true ?
@@ashwanthjerry2210 I've not played through a jcm 800. The Marshall JVM 410H responds great on all the channels. I've mainly played through Peavey and ENGL in the past. Marshalls have something special.
This has been my main amp for 10+ years. It always delivers. You can actually get great clean tones, some nice bluesy stuff, and monster gain, when you want it. It really does do everything quite well. Favorite channel? OD1 Orange!!! No doubt. Be careful though, it might actually swallow your Keyboard Player, whole. ; )
This Marshall sound is pure magic !!!
Rabea is a great metal player. I would love to see Rabea more on Andertons. I miss the metal playing on the channel.
Best amp I’ve ever owned, I don’t think I’ll ever get rid of mine.
The ear keeps bending to the Nuno-inspired single note chugs. That amp is a monster, seemingly very little bass flubb on the Drop-C guitar. Excellent demo, passion abound!
My best friend used to have this amp right when it got released. He actually bought it the same week I bought myself an old JCM900, and I was always amazed with how good his amp sounded, and the tones he got out of it. We used to swear by the cleans which we absolutely loved, and the OD channels were amazing as well. I was so sad when he told me he sold it. I wish I bought it off him.
I’ve had my JVM 410
For about 10 years now. Two years ago I bought a Kemper stage for touring, because of its convenience. Covid hit, and touring was off. I was still using the Kemper in our studio. Two months ago tried the JVM again. Haven’t stopped using it since.
It’s just magic with my Les Paul, Charvel, and Jackson. I works on blues to metal.
I used fast fret when I first started playing in 1987... haven’t touched it in decades, but as soon as you started talking about it, I swear I could feel it on my fingers.
I love my JVM215c, the clean channel is so underrated! Clean red is my go to crunch tone with this amp and your grin at 8:39 pretty encapsulates my opinion of the sound 🤘
Thanks Rabea! This video has inspired me to play my JVM 410H again. It’s long over due.
One of my all time favorite amps!. Its an absolute beast.
I miss my 210 most of any amp that I've sold and that includes some nice Two Rock's and things I had to part with. The 210 was a nice mix of that versatility without the feature paralysis I felt with the 410.
The Tele sound is just icing...It really works as a Tele and more.
Just watched the original 410 vid from years past... Love how both then and now, you play the ENTIRE rig as an instrument. Always playing what really works for each combination of tone, gain, delay, reverb, etc, ad infinitum...
Not a bad sound to be heard here.
Wow. that sounds really nice on every channel. What a versatile beast. OD2 sounds tighter to me, but it loses something in the attack. OD1 is where it's at.
A good service, fresh tubes and proper bias makes a world of difference. Great sounding amp. Thanks for the tones and run through.
This video is the reason I finally bit the bullet and picked one of these to go with my Engl Powerball I. Zero regrets!
My main amp since it first came out. Love them so much I have two.
Dude OD1 auburn sounds phenomenal.
I thinks that’s my favorite tone as well . Much respect to your chops as well . Bravo
I'm a blues and classic rock player and I love the sounds of this amp for those tones too.
Really love my 215 combo. 50watts, just two channels but 6 sounds with reverb and two master volume. It's a beast!
Me too. I don't know how one can need any other amp. The green clean is stellar, just like the other channels. You can play everything you want.
I love my 210h. I used to just crank the green lead channel. Nowadays i find myself using the clean orange setting with a little bit of gain for a pedal platform. Versatile amps
I had a 210h lost my job near Christmas a few years ago and had to sell it to get my girls Christmas prezzies, I loved that amp, miss it so much. What sucks is I know I will never get the chance to own another one 😭 and ever time I see one my heart breaks
Sucks to hear, but you are a great father and I'm sure they love you.
I hope you will be able to get one again.
Remember, life is ups and downs, so I'm sure, just like there is sun after the rain, you will have an up phase again.
Best of luck
@@danielschafhautle1691 ty and it was worth the look on there faces on Christmas day 😊
Such a warm to hear. Someday bro, better things will be yours 🙏
Greetings from Tasmania/Australia
I've had Marshalls all my life ( Why, oh why did I part with my 70's JMP ? )
Even back in the 80's I visualised Marshall building an amp with all of the features we now take for granted in the JVM range.
So, When Marshall came out with this back in circa: 2007'ish, I just had to have one!
I started with the JVM-205C combo, and then a JVM-40H Head as I got back playing in a Rock band and now that I'm way older & could not be naffed carting around a 1960A Cab, I have gone back to a JVM-210C Combo. I love, love, love everything about it, as Rabea demonstrated in the 40H , it has all these tones and then some.
I have to admit to being biased to Marshall & have been since I started playing back in the mid 70's, but hey when you've got the best you don't settle for anything less after that now ~ Do You ?
For FUNCTIONALITY alone, it just has to be the Marshall JVM ... but then you drive this beast & enjoy taming it All those classic Marshall tones in one fabulous AMP ~ Well, that IS the best thrill as a Guitarist you could wish for. And when I say all the classic Marshall tones, you better believe it ... AND with a Clean tone that will surprise even a Fender purist in my 'umble opinion.
Play it Loud, Play a Marshall ... End Of !
Your riff on the crunch green, it's so effortless for you, I'm like... that's friggin beautiful and without hesitation you continue on with amp banter haha :) You are truly an amazing artist dude.
Went out and bought one after this vid. Killer amp, versatile as it gets.
This video was one of the reasons I picked up a 410H as well. Incredible amp for little money on the used market.
Me too! I was convinced I needed a boutique, super expensive amp, but this blew me away. Got one for £750 yesterday!
@@CrazyLeyther. Yeah, for the money, it's an insanely good buy. Really very cheap for what it does.
Strangely enough, I never wanted a high gain amp for myself, but I always liked listening to someone handle one. 😊
I will never get rid of mine . I always forget how good it sounds
When he says “play some of the Toska stuff” I sat up a little straighter so I could hear better…
😂 this is perfect
@@AngryAndyToth 😁
That’s like the opposite of when you turn your car stereo down so you can find a place to park.
I've been playing guitar for over 20 years. Had a lot of amps, from different brands. But then I stumbled upon this thing and decided to give it a try. HOLY SH1T, this amp is amazing, it's the tone I've been searching my whole life. It has something in the mid frequencies and the gain structure that I can't reach in other amps.
I have Friedman small box half stack, talking with one of fellow guitarist, saying I was looking to get the BE 100?
He told me he just purchased the JVM 410 for 2,199.00!!! I checked the video demos out. Ran down to guitar center and made my purchase and they’re going to price match it!! Can’t wait and fired up!! All the Bells 🔔 and Whistles!!!!
Man, these JVM amps serve up high gain tone in spades. Nice job Rabea! Keep up the good work.
Great sounds and inspiring playing. With reference to your summary though, I very much get the impression from watching this that it was designed to be a "Swiss army knife" of amps, so I'm very much looking forward to the follow up with a variety of different cabs attached and how it copes. Should keep you busy for the rest of summer! :D
Amazing playing. And excellent head. I agree with all your comments. Doesn't quite do the plexi thing. But def an amazing head for metal and heavier tones. It's its own thing. Thank you for making this vid! Very informative and amazing to watch.
Dannnnng! This is definitely in the top five of my favorite Rabea videos. Modalling is the top, but this one is like watching a big rig truck driving through a restaurant.
Always loved clean orange on my JVM410h, it was my default clean tone for 5 years.
Saw your video then ordered a 410c
It's on it's way lol
I really appreciate your Chanel thank you!
WOW!!!! I've always been a fan of Marshall amps and the JVM 410H is amazing! I also love the Mesa Mark series heads like the JP-2C. I would love to see a musician such as yourself, with your level of skill and expertise, do a side by side comparison of these two amps. Maybe some recommendations to the best speaker cabs for each head. P.S. LOVE your chops!!!!! Keep on rockin' in the free world!!!!
Dude…you know that feeling you get when you hear and feel an amp that gives you that knotted up feeling in your stomach,? That feeling of wanting to just rip a fretboard apart? That deep feeling of “ chills down your back” when you hear that tone? This is it!!! At least for me, that orange channel, wow bro!! I’ve played pretty much all Marshall for the last 30 yrs. Because it has that tone. That thing you wanna feel. This amp I’ve not owned, ZW 2203 jcm was my last Marshall purchase. The jvm is a monster amp.
Glad to see the prs again, I have missed that guitar
One of the great things about having a lot of gear is that I’m often rotating what amp or guitar I’m using because if I haven’t used it in awhile it’ll feel new again and new is fun. It’s also a great way to break out of a writing rut.
HAHA opening up the video, straight outta the gates on the forbidden OD2 Red! Atta boy! Sick vid bro ❤️
I have the 210H and did not like it at first because of what you stated about the OD2 channel on the 410H. That is the gain stage on the 210H and I also felt it was too much. A simple MOD clipping the right capacitor made it the OD1 channel from the 410H. I love it now.
I own a JVM210H, Excellent amp. I love it. I am struggling to even try any pedals with it. It just sounds so good as-is.
Dude this thing sounds insane. The Shred Bit's opening dive bomb was so awesome.
We want to see N4 and JVM jam’s. Taking us all back in tut day, to the origins of the beast of a player you’ve become!
The JVM series are such under rated amps for high gain in my experience. Not enough coverage on them. Sounded great man, makes me miss my 410h.
Agreed
Listen to that chug at 19:34. Other than the EVH 5150III, I don't think I've ever heard a metal tone as perfect as that.
I used to have a Marshall 30th anniversary head and quad box and I absolutely loved it. It was the most amazing sounding amp. I played a Gibson Les Paul Axcess through it. You can't beat a Marshall. The JVM410H is the first Marshall I've seen that makes me want to blow a shit tonne of money on an amp again.
JVM prices just went up on reverb... Great video and awesome playing as always!
Such an overlooked amp. It can hand with all the $3000+ Boutiques for a fraction of the price
I bought my JVM 410H based on the original video(s) you put out many years ago, and still love it!
This was on my short list of amps t o buy in 2016, and it did impress, I like that it was a Marshall tweakers amp( I spent a week with a buddies), you can get loads of usable tones from it with a few knob twists or button presses. I decided to not to get it , but it is an incredible amp.
I don't even wait to watch the full video anymore, I just know it's gonna be a good video. JVM's are amazing tho! Happy to see it get some love recently! I really wanna get one in the future
6505, rockerverb 100 and kemper rack mount in my Arsenal. I have found my self only playing the JVM 410 for the last few months! Tone for days
I bought a jvm410c last year. In the last 6 months I bought a headrush peddleboard and frfr powered cabs.
The jvm is getting a service and coming to next band practice.
Thanks Bea!
I was hoping you’d do this ever since the JVM reappeared a few videos ago 😄. Thanks, great review as usual mate. Big fan of the JVM series.
Rabea, I dont always watch your videos but I am so glad I watched this one. Your playing is incredible my friend! The phat riffs and "percussive thing" really got me. Rock on!
I used to own this amp, and I sold it when I moved to the US from the UK, and I miss it terribly! The manual always did a great job of explaining the channels, clean green was based on a fender clean, then orange was a plexi and red a modded plexi. The crunch channel was similar to a JCM800, then orange and red were modded versions of 800's. OD1 was it's own thing, then OD2 was a mid frequency shifted down version. Ahh what a great amp. I'll own another one some day.
Marshall also had a beautiful clean I was shocked when I brought my first dsl 💯 super lead when cranked it had very Hendrix SRV tone I was blown away! While everyone thought fender was the only amp with great clean I knew marshall was just as wonderful after all Plexi is a bassman the 2 brands are more the same than people realize! Sounds great BTW
I sold my JVM and kept my Marshall 8100, it still amazes me everytime i play it.
Just bought a JVM 205h and it's an absolute ripper!
Do you still have the amp? Lookin at either 205h or 410h.
Got my 410c three years ago used for 1000e and the guy gifted me RACK case which is like 300 and something euros for this model and its a must. Now im a third owner. Spent last dime i had. First tube, never even baught a pedal before that and before that i used ( still do ) FENDER CHAMPION 40 so it was an UPGRADE! Pretty fair price, excellent condition, literally like new.
WHATS IMPORTANT:
If you are not where you thought you would be, was this a sound of an amp or its you... IT WILL SORT OUT !!!
I was a young man who informed himself quite well before buying. A year and half of thirsting, watching videos on yt and exploring resulted in me getting confused af after purchasing the amp. Something was not right and i was not in a good place, nor did have the time to figure it out even tho i tried REALLY hard.
If one hole was filled, the other would open. After changing some resistors, after changing tubes, everything is where i wanted it to be. But it took me 3 years, cuz life is a bitch. From the begging overdriven sound didnt sound quite well, and i thought " oh must be time to change some strings " , but no. What helped me the most are Facebook groups, the groups like " Tube Guitar Amplifiers " and the others. Im so grateful for people who are there to help and provide a proper information!!! Strongly recommend to get yourself in if you are not. If you dont know, there's someone who does and he will help you! Turns out Phaser Tube was bad, so i ordered some TAD's Premium and now im at peace. Also, Power tubes wore out while i was using them so i needed to change that too, got some more of TAD and boy do they sound amazing!!
This maybe gotten away but i hope it helps someone!
dude your screaming bend in that solo at 0:34 is so soooo sweet
Woooooooooow! That's beyond clean. That's somewhere between Fender clean and JC120 clean. It's beautiful!!!
Bea, you sound great through everything you use but I think the JVM sounds easily as good as any of the 'boutique' stuff out there. They put a silly amount of gain in the OD2 channel, but you can do any genre with the JVM and do it well IMO. Incredible amp that was ahead of it's time.
It’s hard to dial in because of so much gain . I like channel 4 with gain on 3 master volume at like 6 . It does a great modded 800 that way
Very good all around amp. Actually great all around amp
Had mine for a many years now. I also have the TSL 100, which I then retired. Love my JVM. I'll never sell it. It's sooo versatile! I use quite a lot less gain than you though. I use OD2 for Metallica style music, OD2 is more scooped, and that fits well with 80s style metal. I use OD1 for old-school metal, like Iron Maiden. Crunch for Rock (think ACDC), and Clean for... well, clean. I have all the channels on green stage, except the clean, which needs to be on orange to have the gain, if i remember correct. It'll act as a plexi on green, with the gain as a volume knob. Keeping then on green will dampen the gain a bit. That way, all the channels are VERY usable, unlike what you say, haha. To me, anyways! :) Love the video, JVM is still relevant, people just have to open their eyes, and not be stuck in the 60s saying "Hey man, Marshall should only make the plexi!" If people just tried it, they'd all realize why should they use their money on a JCM800 when they can have this. It's even CHEAPER TOO! :D
I use a JVM410C, I nicked your settings from your older video... and I love it. Does everything superbly.
