    @joshbeer414 3 года назад +26

    Super lead sounds the most pleasing, orange the warmest as usual. Laney had a nice fuzzy tone to it! I liked the hiwatt because it had a unique distortion that was unlike the others. jcm 800 cuts through the mix!

    Another great vid from Fuzzlord. Thank you.
    I have the JCM 800. Bought it for that 80s thrash tone. My "doom amp" is (surprisingly) my EVH 5150 6L6. That blue channel is a treasure trove of gain and tones. I rarely see it mentioned for "doom" amps. I think it would be a fun addition to vid like this if you ever do another one.

    Laney! Love it!
    I have a GH30R-112 combo and its a beast! One can dial in poweramp and preamp distortion independently to get your mix of the 2 types of distortion just right. I run a DOD Carcosa in the front of it with a Squier Tele loaded with a Seymour Duncan Hot Rails in the bridge, and its DOOM HEAVEN! Tones of low end, nice and thick distortion and very very versatile.

    Hey, watching from Durango, MX - A few years ago I had the chance to play through a JCM900 with only a Blues Driver in front of it, and it was a very surprising combination. Not the 'traditional' doom tones, but it was still heavy yet articulate, and maybe even worth recommending it to all fellow doomers out there (the lower output Epiphone pickups played a big role too, I think)? Anyway, I've always liked the Marshall sound, so out of the amps featured on this video, the JCM800 won my ears and heart haha! Cheers!

    Unfortunatly the AORs are getting pretty expensive these days, I've seen used ones for over a 1k, I got mine for 300 bucks. Only downside of the AORs is that they are super noisy.
    You should do a Fuzzlord AOR style amp or pedal, that would be super awesome!

    Orange OR120 is one of my favorite amps. I grabbed the head and 4x12 a couple years ago for about $2200 and figured I’d just sell them. THE Eric Johnson came check out the 4x12 because he was interested in the speakers but wound up passing because he wanted a specific production code or something?
    Wound up selling the amp to some asshole on reverb that said it was broken and forced me to take a return on it. I sent him a video when I got it back and was like “it works great” and he was like “oh you must be using a boost.” I kept telling him you just have to crank it but I think when his wife found out how much he paid for it he had to pretend it was broken to return it or something.

      @@FuzzlordEffects I managed to stumble across one at my local guitar store recently, and took it home as an anniversary present from my wife. Now I know why people say these things are so loud! I got the 100h (high gain version), and it's killer. It sounded good at the store through the cheap Marshall cab and sounded even better when I hooked it up to my Recto cab. Add a TS9 and you're in 80's thrash heaven. (Even though they were made in the early-mid 90s). A lot of people say that they are like a JCM800, and I can definitely hear that, but they also have their own vibe. The 6L6 power tubes do their thing, and it's awesome! Hope you get your hands on one!

    Yeah I do LOVE the Matamp gt120 and the Orange or120. They are probably my favourite circuits. They do sound very similar with the right settings. The Matamp can do bassy and open tones a bit better and it sounds harsher overall. The Or120 does aggressive mins very well and it's a bit mellower. Analogy: The Matamp is more RAT fuzztortion personality the Orange is more Big Muff Pi fuzz personality.

    The Orange style amps are the warmest sounding. But i am biased because i own some Orange amps ; ). A Thunderverb 200 and a GRO100 from 73. You should check out the Orange GRO100. It has less gain than a OR120. Its kind of a forgotten Orange amp .
    And if anybody comes across old Carlsbro amps from the early 70s. Buy them! they are dirt cheap . But inside they have huge Partridge transformers . And they have tons of clean headroom. Even the 60 watt version. And you can get then as a 120 watt as well. And the 200watt P.A head version is great for bass

  • @mountainpeakcloud8442

    Hope you don't mind a few questions about the Laney AOR. How does the 100w AOR compare to the 50w? Does these sound good at low volume if you use an attenuator and crank the master volume, for home playing? Can the gain be tightened up with a pedal? Also, does the AOR has the big low end like the Orange Rockerverbs do? I know prices have gone up, and people use to get them because they were cheap, but what would you consider a reasonable price for it these days? Thanks!

    I like the plexi clone the most. Dirty, bold and chaotic yet a lot of clarity. The AOR sounds really fat. I also like the JCM 800 a lot but a single channel model played really loud might lend itself to doom even better. I guess more like the Plexi but more gain. Especially love the JMP ones but they're all great amps.

      More mids, less gain. Profit.
      There are also countless of instances where a guitar sounds like shit (on it's own) but rips in a mix.
      Playing in your (bed)room will VERY LIKELY make you add too much bass and cut all the mids. But you need to do the opposite in a band situation.
      P.S. One DOOM amp I would like to own (but is hard to get in Europe) is a Sunn Model T (Spirit Caravan, Sleep, Goatsnake)
