Awesome riffing man, and both of em sound great. I can totally relate to that "there's different stuff goin on here" thats me trying to describe any guitar amplifier haha!
@@brokenlevelmusic really?!???? are you serious.... wow what the heck my minds blown then. my 8100 has a ton of top end so I would’ve swore it was the other way around. i’m in shock. the 8100 here sounds super muddy in comparison
The combo surprisingly (at least to me) sounded meatier here than the 8100, I like the combo better. Very interesting shootout, excited for when you compare the 8100 with the VS100!
Well then something is wrong with that 8100. Probably needs a new tube. Because my 8100 sounds way heavier than that. I have a VS also and the tube went out so it made it sound real middy
@@brokenlevelmusic who knows maybe. I just remember when my VS sound took a dump. I took it in and it was just a tube. I do think the 8100 sounds better than VS 100, but both sound great when you put an EQ through the fx loop. It seems like the 8100 has a better mid tone where the VS loses that mid tone at high volumes. John Browne from Monuments does a review on the 8100 and it sounds heavy as hell. Go check it out.
Damn I have an 8100, a vs265 is up for sale locally and damn I think I need it
Grab it while you can these are getting hard to find
@@ballsofdoom3124 waited till he dropped the price for it for $200!
I have the vs100 and the vs2000. This would be a great addition to the collection.
I have had a VS265 since the 90s. Just recently got an AVT150. Both are good pedal platforms.
great vid as always man! seriously makes my day seeing you upload a new vid
Thanks John🤘
I've got a VS265 and it sounds great for metal and death metal.
Yes sir, things rad🤘
Good job bro, a real good comparison between two monsters of gain. Thanks to you.

👊😂 thanks Allan🤘
I don't have my 8100 anymore. But you can get JCM 800 like tone with contour set at 9:00
wait maybe I missed something, but when the drums kick in that’s the 8100 right with the much more top end?
No, opposite🤘😝

@@brokenlevelmusic super muddy in comparison*. I wonder if it has anything to do with how you are running it through the power section of the combo
@@johnmaddox1712 it totally does, its losing something using the other power amp, I’m guessing.
@@brokenlevelmusic very interesting. great riffing as always!!!!!
I Love the V265 , it sounds Amazing.
Cool shootout! Kind of an upper vs. lower mids things between the combo and head. Would probably be a cool blended tone. Killer riffs too!
🙏👊
Prices seem to be going up every day on the valvestate amps.
The combo surprisingly (at least to me) sounded meatier here than the 8100, I like the combo better. Very interesting shootout, excited for when you compare the 8100 with the VS100!
I agree🤘
The combo sounds tighter
Tone is ridiculous ! That riff is fucking sick man!
My man👊👊👊🤘🤘🤘
I miss my vs265.
The 8100 has a more mid open sound than the 265, but something about the 265’s scooped tone sounds more aggressive in this mix.
Ya for sure Kade🤘
Something doesn’t seem right with the 8100…
Killler riffing !!👊💀
Thanks dude🤘😵

I’m thinking somethings wonky in the effects loop, Cuz on it’s own sounds gnarly🤷♂️

@@brokenlevelmusic i had a vs 100, the effect loop had something strange and was ultra dark sounding
Love it!
Love the riffs and the tone!
Check out my valvestate tone!
Even got a MG tone sample too 😄
I thought the 8100 sounded better, but the combo wasn’t bad just different
