Big City is a killer song. Fun to play too. Solos are relatively easy compared to other Matthias licks. That whole Love at First Sting album is all killer, no filler.
@@RobinDale50 You took the words right out of my mouth. That album will always be my memory of driving school, lol. I would listen to the album on my Walkman on the way to the driving school, on break at Driving school and during the 45 minutes or whatever it was that you just worked in your drivers manual book.
Big city nights has amazing guitar playing, but I never heard it as a particularly interesting song. I was buying those LPs at the time. Everything the Scorpions did before Blackout is badass, then a lot of their stuff got duller and more commercial.
And let's be clear... for all you younger guitarists used to today's high gain amps, this guy is digging deep, beating those notes into sweet submission. These were not high gain amps. There was no hiding your mistakes or weaknesses in playing style. Aside from the Scorps tunes, these leads are relatively low gain and pretty dry. Awesome job dude! Very admirable.
The problem is, a JCM800 has to be cranked extremely loud to get those tones and most are pretty big, which isn't practical for a lot of people. There are newer high gain amps out there now that allow these sounds at lower, more manageable volume levels and don't weight a ton.
@cmiggiani pretty much 99% of famous (and not so) guitarists during the 80s had their JCM800s modded for more gain - it’s why Marshall introduced the Jubilee and then the JCM900. @JJDon5150 I have the 2203 version… the trick at low volume is to push the front end with an EQ pedal through a 4x12 with greenbacks for that classic EVH tone and then switch the EQ off for classic AC/DC tones 🤫🤟🏼🎸
You have to realize that there are quite some differences between an early jcm800 and a late one like this. The very first 2204 we’re exactly the same as the JMP amps, where the later models had some changes in their preamp stages so these had more gain
@@JohnsormaniI have a 1983 marshall 4010, jcm800 combo. It's not at all a high gain amp, and the very first jcm800 I bought I remember being really disappointed by. It was in my metal days and all of the guitarists I admired were always known to use 800s. When I finally got one I was really bummed out by how little gain it had. These days I think those amps are magical tone machines and I love how dynamic, articulate, and unforgiving they are. Brutally loud though.
I was born in 1970, so I was a teenager in the 80s, and this is the sound and music I grew up with, and still love to this day. Awesome job on all of the songs!
@@ranger5281 Talent I hate that word just a made up word it's not talent it's the drive the obsession of playing guitar practicing 15-18 hours a day and enjoying it because you love what you do that is what separates pro's from anyone else not talent a gift that no one else has become anyone can play guitar and be good not easy it's that desire the obsession. After all the guitar is the greatest instrument in the world.
I borrowed a JCM800, 100 watt, from a friend for a few months. One day, I had it on 3½ and all the items on my shelves were vibrating themselves off onto the floor. I happened to hear someone knocking on my door between riffs. It was a lone policeman, asking me if I could turn it down as he could hear it quite a distance away. It was only 3pm, too. No effects, just straight in from a DiMarzio Super Distortion. What a great sound from such a massive beast. I would have loved to own it myself.
Super incredible man! Love the tone. I bought my Marshall 100 Lead Mosfet back in 1988. It was $660.00. That was a lot of money for a 19 year old kid. I still have it to this day along with my Kramer Baretta. Keep Rockin dude!
Still have mine + the 4x10. Spectacular for a SS. Sounds even better through 12” speakers! Agreed that being a teen in the 80s was the best, catching all of those bands in their prime!
Then it was like someone pulled the plug at the beginning of the 90s, and it's been downhill ever since. And not just for music- the entire civilization of the west.
@Thracian the 90s was a great decade. Lots of good music and movies and other stuff. Even the 2000s weren't bad compared to now. Things have fallen alot in the last 10 years but it Def didn't fall off starting in the early 90s imo...
Really nailed that sound of the 80's. Fantastic vibrato at all times which is so important and sadly overlooked by a lot of modern players I feel. Great work!
Dude.... Always said I wish I grew up in the 80's to witness this music in its prime, but now all I gotta do is come see you live and i'll be complete. Unreal
It almost brings a tear to my eye to see to see these great songs living on in today's younger generation. Gives me hope that maybe someday decent music will return to the forefront.
So I was gonna just watch for a few seconds as I was going through the algorithm…found myself staying spellbound for the whole 18 minutes. Phenomenal, timeless tone and impeccable chops. Well done!
Since That very first time, I accidently, stumbled onto one of Jacobs very first video guitar posts on Facebook. I was immediatly floored that this kid, this high school kid, was absolutly killing difficult Van Halen covers. Not just killing them, but killing them more perfectlly, accurate, with sound and tone thats almost spot on. Always plugging directly into his Marshall, or his Germino ( A perfect, hand maid replica of Eds famous 68 plexi). No peddal board of any kind, no fancy rack mount effects. Just straight in, with The volume on 10. Ive have never heard or seen anyone who could play Van Halen so incredibly accurate in all my 42 years. Jacob Deraps is 100% , Hands Down, The greatest Van Halen cover guitarist, that has ever lived. But, Jacob is so much more than an amazing Van Halen cover guitarist. Hé is a 100%, life long, proffesional musician and guitarist, of The highest order. Who just continues to grow and improve in any areas of music hé decides to focus on. There isnt a guitar techniqe that Jacob hasnt mastered yet. Hé has an incredible amount of gear and music knowkedge and history, normally associated with someone who is much older and experienced, and they usualy have a degree of somekind to go along with that.Its amazing to me just how much hé seems to improve, week to week, and. Month to Month. Well, it turns out, that Jacob has way more than The ability to play Eds music so incredibly accurate. It turns out that Jacob can play any bands songs just as good as any Van Halen song he's ever covered. Jacobs covers are so accurate, its scary. And, that means accurate, people. If there is an effect on The song, or a special guitar, no problem. Jacobs dad is a proffesional guitarist and has a whole lot of incredible guitars and gear for Jacob to pick thru. Jacob will use The right guitar, with The right effect, always. And. Nail it every single time, like clockwork. Jacob is also an exceptional person, man and humane being who just so happens to be one of our most talented young guitarists living in The world today. Im a huge, Jacob Deraps fan. Ive thourghly enjoyed every single moment that ive followed Jacob on his incredible musical adventure. I feel perfectlly comfortable with saying that Jacob Deraps is going to be 100% succsefull in all of his musical endevers. This is one bandwaggon That every single person should be on !!!!! ❤️💯👍🔥
Awesome ! I had a 2204. Got it from a friend who moved into a 2205. I sold it for $400.00 in 1990 to build a home. Big regret, awesome amp. The house is paid for now and I still suck on guitar, so I guess things happen for a reason. All the stuff I used to play/aspire to play. Awesome!
0:35 Bro, you nailed George's solo! Love the 80's "wicked mane" of hair too Bro! LOL! Perfect reproduction! I've heard many players on RUclips play that "Dream Warriors" solo and they never quite get it right, but you did. As a long time fan of the Lynch Lord, I thank you for the work you put it to master it. Loved Randy at 8:28 and 11:03 as well! Great tone! BTW - Little secret : You can get that 2203/2204 tone EXACTLY out of the new Guitar Rig 6 if you work at it.
You had me from the first riff~ Sick tone and playing. I love how the JCM800 cleans up so well with the volume pot and is SO responsive. It's the amp type that taught me how to fully utilise the pots on my guitars. Beautiful work!
As much as I enjoy watching you play this classic anthems isolated (that sounds ridiculously great) the best part was you playing your own songs, specially Veins of my Heart, thats my favorite song in a very long time!!! Keep it going Jacob🤘🏽🤘🏽 cheers from Honduras🇭🇳 and hope to watch you perform live sometime
Awesome! Brings me back, I had a Peavey Vandenburg guitar with Seymour Duncan Live Wire Pickups, A mid 80’s Laney Half stack with 80 watt Celestions!! Love your sound-great song list and talent!
I've enjoyed watching this video several times tonight. I can't believe you. Not only technically perfect, but there's a genuine quality of an authentic, human timing. Hard to explain... Wolfgang has it. You do too. Out fucking standing, Incredible!
Huge Dokken fan,..you nailed it!! I wish George would play closer to his original solo when he's live, as at time he chases rabbits. Very nice job and pleasing to the ear.
Love this - the pick attack and the way you attack the vibrato really separates it from other stuff on RUclips. I think the connection to the guitar you get playing a cranked moderate gain tube amp which requires you to dig in is lost on some modern guitarists.
Freaking amazing, bro. Great, great playing!!! You were definitely too young to have been around back when all that was going on, but you would have crushed it! The Randy influence is SUPER evident in all your playing. I was a student of his back in the late 1970s in North Hollywood CA and I honestly say you really do have a lot of the little inflections and voicings down. It was awesome to hear those tunes again just on guitar played by someone who really gets it. Bravo.
It's been such a blast watching your channel lately. Superb playing. So glad you appreciate all the older rock..that way I can see how it's really played.
Heard someone playing a Gibson thru a Marshall amp and never forgot that sound. He was playing "Ain't Talking About Love ". Still have my Fender Blues Jr. but am definitely putting this Amp on my bucket list!
Dude you fucking nailed everything all your solos are perfect ratt scorpions all of. I'm a metal singer I used to sing alot of scorpions and ratt in cover bands. Awesome I can tell you've done your homework
Flash forward to riding in the car this weekend and me trying to explain to my wife and kids why I am insisting we listing to so much Scorpions and Ozzy.
This is fucking sick! Jacob is insane. So much feel and control over the instrument with all that gain. Incredible. Does anyone know the song list? I know most but don't recognise a couple
🔥Damn Jacob!!!🔥 That new, old, Marshall Head Kicks Asssss !!!! 💥 That thing sounds amazing!! Now im wondering what it might sound like if you messed around and ran your JCM 800 , Germino and that lovely 80s Head you have there, together, or in tandom combinations ? Hmm. Also, thank you so much Jacob for the manner in which you shoot all your incredible videos. I use all of your videos as a valuable learning tool. Because we can always see every little thing your doing with your hands. And, because you can slow videos way, way down. Im able to learn how to play a whole bunch of killer songs, just by carefully copieing everything that your doing. Even if you cant play some of it, you can watch, and learn and study all of the excellent techniqe That your using on each song. I love watching and adsorbing as much as i possibly can from all of your videos. ❤Thanks Jacob!!!!❤ 💯👍🔥💥
I have a Marshall Jcm 900 Combo 100w with 2 x 12 , and it's a Monster. Bought it new in the mid 90's 2 channels with seperate gain and volume for each. Like it's as good if not better than an 800, I don't know what all the cry baby stuff was about the 900... Love that Amp would never sell it... Great playing man... brought me back to the 80's again... The best Metal Years...
My brother had a 80's JCM800. Such a beast. My ears would bleed when we would jam. I had the original peavey 5150 head and it was hard to keep up with the 800.
5150s are notorious for being biased too cold from factory, maybe that's what was keeping it from slaying heads, something they are also notorious for 😂😂
Friend just linked some of your VH material and I've been lost in your channel taking it all in for a long time, now. It's really really great. You're extremely skilled, your band is great, and you've got great material. Thanks so much for putting this out, man!
Some guitarist are timeless ...no matter their time, their always ahead or...in this time, able to bring back greatness...YOU are both man, keep on rockin!🤘
Wow, good job. At 53, these are the sounds of my formative years. I'd usually say something like, "they don't make it like they used to," except you just did. Awesome!
Nice job. I haven't heard anyone play 80s metal guitar like that since the 80s. I played guitar in a metal band way back then. I used to like the band Annihilator. Check out the song Alice in hell if you want. Thanks for the excellent video.
Wow. Crazy awesome smorgasbord of sound from an amp that defined the 1980's - Thank You So Much! for your great musicianship and posting this killer video - Rock On >
I actually owned one of lynches 100 watters back in the 80s living in Hollywood, it was modded by Jose and it screamed but was a tube hog so I got rid of it. Back then jcm’s could be bought for a few hundred bucks used all day long.
The V sounds extremely similar to the Van Halen 1984 tone, incredible playing dude. You should also do some more thrash stuff, you killed the Kill ‘Em All and Rust In Peace stuff.
Only two words.....supremely righteous!!!!!!
An appropriate 80s response. 😉
I bought one brand new, a "JCM 800 LEAD SERIES"
THE WHOLE STACK, I COUPLED IT WITH MY FENDER STRAT "AMERICAN STANDARD" IT WAS AWESOME !!!!!
Totally awesome
Fookin Badass!
Huge Dokken fan here. Lynch's sounds has always been difficult to reproduce but that was amazing. The DeMartini cover was impressive as well.
George Lynch forever! This was awesome, great job on these songs you are killing it! Your own songs were great too
Lynch used a plexi during the 80s not a JCM btw
@@donlynch8285modified plexi does sound pretty similar to 800
@JSlikbeer-ni6xf only on the first album and tooth & nail. used modded marshalls and soldanos after that
That round and round harmonized solo always gets me and Big city nights about time it gets the recognition it deserves.
Big city nights is a badass song
Scorpions are awesome

74 here but same story 🤟
I’m 15 and same
same here, 70's kid!
Jacob's level of technical ability is about the best I've ever heard. Very few guitarists can capture all these nuances.
There's a guy named Phil X that said Deraps is one of the few that have Eddies swing.
Yes! And Deraps got the "swing" part when just a young dude... teenager. Remarkable talent.
@@Boldaslove71 a guy named Phil X lol

Able to capture the naunces of Randy Rhoads and warren demartini so naturally, well done
Bro is really the best replicator of 80s soloing. We see other guitarists doing it on RUclips, but he is the closest.

All this presented on the only two guitars that truly represent the 1980's, a Kramer 84 Baretta and a Gibson Flying V!
Outstanding, Sir!
Yep not bad for a guitar that came out in the late 50’s
I don’t know. I think Charvel /Jackson were pretty huge in the late 70’s through the 80’s.
Absolutely SICK tone and execution of these legendary songs of the 80s/90s
Super incredible man! Love the tone. I bought my Marshall 100 Lead Mosfet back in 1988. It was $660.00. That was a lot of money for a 19 year old kid. I still have it to this day along with my Kramer Baretta. Keep Rockin dude!
The Lead 100 Mosfet amp was a quite special little amp :)
Still have mine + the 4x10. Spectacular for a SS. Sounds even better through 12” speakers!
Agreed that being a teen in the 80s was the best, catching all of those bands in their prime!
I think it’s cool that this kid appreciates this music that older than him. Plays it perfectly too!
I’ve been playing 40 years and I want THAT GUY as my jam buddy.👍🎸
So happy I lived in the 70’s and 80’s. What an incredible era for music. It really was an experience one can never truly describe. It had to be lived
I totally Agree...

I loved that you played the solo from "Dream Warriors" as it's played on video and not the album. Killer!
There's a reason these amps where often modded. Sounds killer though in original state as well! Definitely THE sound of the 80's
Dude that was fucking phenomenal.Your tone and ability are spot on and amazing.I grew up in the 80s It was the best decade ever
This is the sound of my people

Excellent work. I think the V sounds killer and honestly captures those tones pretty accurately.
Thanks for resurrecting the greatest music ever (live)
Unreal Dude! Been awhile since I've heard someone SHRED like you. Love your tone and the way you make it look effortless. AMAZING😮

damn would like to hear some Vito Bratta with that same sound🔥🙏🏻
What a great video full of '80s fiffs! 👍
Your videos are incredible and always inspire me! You keep guitar playing alive!
As a die hard JCM800 devotee I'm really curious of your settings and what pedals you had going. Great playing and tone!

The 80’s… awesome decade for music. Maybe the best decade of music..
Sooooo Gooood .... Soulfoul ballsy 80s rock style ... No drop tuning ... Thanks Man ... Enjoyed this so much!!!
Loved it. I love this era of Hard Rock, and u are just nailing those riffs and licks. Please share recording chain.
Brings back so many awesome great memories of one of the best times of metal music and long hair 😀👍👍excellent job my good man 👏👏👍👍
Heard someone playing a Gibson thru a Marshall amp and never forgot that sound. He was playing "Ain't Talking About Love ". Still have my Fender Blues Jr. but am definitely putting this Amp on my bucket list!
Nice. I'd love to hear you demo my favorite 800, the 2210. The 50W versions are great, too.
I'm going to award this best tone on the internet. So satisfying to listen to. Doesn't hurt that you can play all these tunes dead on!
Dude you fucking nailed everything all your solos are perfect ratt scorpions all of. I'm a metal singer I used to sing alot of scorpions and ratt in cover bands. Awesome I can tell you've done your homework
Excellent playing, I never realized before how it is important to apply vibrato to power chords
I wanna move in nextdoor and hear this often.
Flash forward to riding in the car this weekend and me trying to explain to my wife and kids why I am insisting we listing to so much Scorpions and Ozzy.
Awesome man! That thing is FRYING! You can hear the SAG as the power section is begging for its life! :)
Nice i have 2, 2204 full stacks and 2, carvin 100xb full stacks, and 4 solid state stacks nuthin but fn fun.rock nfn roll.
Right up there man, awesome tone and playing!

Even if you cant play some of it, you can watch, and learn and study all of the excellent techniqe That your using on each song. I love watching and adsorbing as much as i possibly can from all of your videos. ❤Thanks Jacob!!!!❤ 💯👍🔥💥
Damn! Sounds amazing! Great playing as well!
Hey kids! Endless guitar lessons are in this video! And they're played CORRECTLY! Bravo Jacob!
I have a time capsule 1983 2204. Absolutely the perfect hard rock sound. Original tubes.
I have a Marshall Jcm 900 Combo 100w with 2 x 12 , and it's a Monster. Bought it new in the mid 90's 2 channels with seperate gain and volume for each.
Like it's as good if not better than an 800, I don't know what all the cry baby stuff was about the 900... Love that Amp would never sell it... Great playing man...
brought me back to the 80's again... The best Metal Years...
Fantastic tone and playing! I have one of these amps too. 1989 JCM800 2204. I used it for years on stage. They take a pedal really well too.
Jake, wonderful technique, tone, and--most important of all--feeling. And you did this without cranking your Marshall dial to 11 a la Spinal Tap. ;-)
My brother had a 80's JCM800. Such a beast. My ears would bleed when we would jam. I had the original peavey 5150 head and it was hard to keep up with the 800.
5150s are notorious for being biased too cold from factory, maybe that's what was keeping it from slaying heads, something they are also notorious for 😂😂
Friend just linked some of your VH material and I've been lost in your channel taking it all in for a long time, now. It's really really great. You're extremely skilled, your band is great, and you've got great material. Thanks so much for putting this out, man!
Some guitarist are timeless ...no matter their time, their always ahead or...in this time, able to bring back greatness...YOU are both man, keep on rockin!🤘
Amazing playing and tone! Thanks for the trip down memory lane.
Great playing dude. You nailed it. Now I need to fire up my 800 and scare the neighbors. Nice tone and nice set list. YOU ROCK
Amazing! You nailed it. You're a rockstar. This is how Rock and Roll should sound nowadays. 80's sound forever
What the f-k can I say other than… you’re killing it ! Great job, love it !! Keep jamming !
Wow, good job. At 53, these are the sounds of my formative years. I'd usually say something like, "they don't make it like they used to," except you just did. Awesome!
great playing and great song choices!!!
I’ve always felt like Lynch & DeMartini are close in their styles.
Absolutely stellar playing man! I thoroughly enjoyed this video and you just got yourself a new subscriber. 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Nice job. I haven't heard anyone play 80s metal guitar like that since the 80s. I played guitar in a metal band way back then. I used to like the band Annihilator. Check out the song Alice in hell if you want. Thanks for the excellent video.
The tone on the bends for dream warriors... God damn
Wow. Crazy awesome smorgasbord of sound from an amp that defined the 1980's - Thank You So Much! for your great musicianship and posting this killer video - Rock On >
I actually owned one of lynches 100 watters back in the 80s living in Hollywood, it was modded by Jose and it screamed but was a tube hog so I got rid of it. Back then jcm’s could be bought for a few hundred bucks used all day long.
Love that you played diary of a madman.. it's easily in the top 3 greatest Randy tunes even if the solo is a bit bizarre
So glad you included Seek and Destroy - very underrated tune.
Has 200 million plays on Spotify.
I love this video! i try and get these tones with my JCM600
insane playing man you're hired
Dude as a Kramer Pacer Carrera owner and a Kramer Assault owner I love you lol
The Round and Round & Mr Crowley solos were flawless
I lived by the JMP series with tube screamer, from '84 until I walked away in the mid 90s. Marshall for life
Superb execution.....😊 Rock on 80's
The V sounds extremely similar to the Van Halen 1984 tone, incredible playing dude. You should also do some more thrash stuff, you killed the Kill ‘Em All and Rust In Peace stuff.
top 10 favourite video on youtube! PERIOD! amazing amazing amazing!
Nice video. I played bass 1979 forward... one long-term band I was in, started with Randall guitar amps, then moved to Marshalls exclusively
Enjoyed every minute of this dude. Great, clean playing.
you're the best man!!!!!!! Great ability, stills, and technics.
