Every time I play through my Plex it’s THE plexi sound I always wanted but never fully got with my other plexi style amps all of which cost more than the Plex. I love it. This is the first time I will do tone matching of an amp into my AXE-FX
This Amp not only nails The Marshall Plexi tone, but it also does The Marshall JMP/JCM 800 Super Lead tone, and The Marshall JMP/JCM 800 Master Volume tone as well, and it does it with higher quality Power and Output Transformers and higher quality Capacitors as well. And, just to top it off, it gives the 89 volt Variac position that was used by EVH on Van Halen 1. This Amp is outstanding, and although I usually prefer 100 watters, I gotta have this 50 watt Professional sounding Marshall. Great job Dave 🎸👍
An amp that can do almost anything you could wish for.. one has to be way picky to snear at this amp when it can sound so dam macho mucho by itself.. fantastic playing like this needs no words 😮 🌏
Hey Leon, quick question, if i mic my amp witch has a 8" speaker and run it in my interface and out to my studio monitors will it give me a bigger fuller sound or is that a dumb thing to do? Thanks, Don Pss im new to the whole mic'ing a amp.thing...
Good morning my good friend. ❤. I am on my secomd coffee and saw this and had to click. ❤ I always play riff raff for checking out crunch tones as well. ❤ Man brother I have been trapping wild skunks for a week that imvaded my yard. If you dont have them down under thank the gods up high because they stink with this oily stuff they spray if they feel threatened and they can carry rabies bad when older. These were five young ones the. mother hid and was probably killed by a car or couple of coyotes. 😂.. Kept me busy .. An org takes them and treats them with a vet and raises them to release back in the wild, but I had to catch them with live traps. 😂 Great playing as always ❤❤ Love that DGT. That and your carbon fiber Robotto guitar are my current favs of yours. Great tones man. Great demo sir. ❤❤❤❤ Be well my friend and be safe and God speed brother. ❤
I love pedals and effects as much as the next person, but that amp and that demo goes a long way towards demonstrating all you really need is a great amp and guitar. Of course, when you DID grease it up... oh my.
The tones are good, but the Ratt tone was FAR too bright. Obviously, that can be dialed out, but still. Otherwise, it's pretty much what I'd look for in a Plexi.
So far three minutes in and it’s fuzzy and sounds nothing like a real plexi. It’s probably just your tone unfortunately. It’s far too bright and way too dirty way dirtier than a real plexi. There’s too much pre-and I don’t hear any power amp break up at all. I’ll keep listening.
The friedman plex is junk. I used a 1970 marshall cab a 59 strat and 69 les paul. It was beyond lame. Dull stiff. Completely inferior to my 77 caswell modded marshall total toy
What's the first riff you'd play through the Plex?
Bark at the Moon.
While Armed And Ready
Probably something I'd make up (muscle memory) but everything I make up on the fly sounds suspiciously like (attempting) Randy Rhoads.😂
I'd have to put a treble booster in front and rock out some Priest, or some Accept. 'Screaming for a Love Bite'? Or ' Hell Bent for Leather'?
(In DLR voice) Ain’t Talkin’ ’bout Love, baby!!!!
Damn! That thing is a tone monster!

Such glorious sounds
One day, I dream of owning a house or general space where I could own such an amp and really crank it.
I own a house where I could crank it, but my ears took too much abuse over the years from loud rock bands so I'm stuck at bedroom levels :P
@@JarickL Just use ear plugs and ROCK ON!! 🤘🏻
ideally yes, but until then an attenuator is your best fackin friend!
You will end up with hearing damage just like me.😢
That amp is definitely ‘armed and ready’ 😅
Congrats on the 100k subscribers! Sounds great
Thank you!
“Armed and ready” I love it!
love with PRS tone number 1and strat
I like the greased up one - awesome
I like what I hear. I just bought one. Brown sound here I come!
Congrats!
Those drop C tones brother!!!! 🔥 🔥
🙌
Killer tones and playing - I miss the talking! Also, scrunchy with a Floyd?
I like the RUclipsrs that do the 'no talking' videos, but dude your accent is awesome, talk to us! lol
Hahaha cheers! This is just the full demo I did last month edited with all the chat cut, so you can go watch the full thing to hear my Aussie drawl
Great vid Leon!
What more do you really need aside from a good guitar and a good Marshall style amp hey?
@@LeonTodd nothing really, both things will give us as much inspiración as needed to have a Great time!
Hey Leon, could you do a video how to "copy" those sounds in the fractal? You ARE the expert on stuff like that ;) Please? :)
Soon!
@@LeonTodd 🖤
Sounds great! Was this a miked cab (if so, what mic) or a loadbox + IRs?
10:19 Pardon my ignorance... grease?
It's a term I use to refer a heavily effected tone - delay/reverb/detune.
very fizzy
It was nice jamming with you.
*Any pedals or is this flat out the amp in all it's rawness?*
Raw dog!
I considered the 1987x because I didn't quite have tge budget then I found a used plex in mint condition I'm glad I did irs amazing
Enjoy!

How does it compare to the Marshall Vintage Modern?
Love the VM but it leans more towards the jtm45 vibe. This one is straight up brown sound
how does this compare to the 1987x, small box and helios 50 ?
Master volume, variac and internally jumpered on this
yes saw this … sounds awesome. seemed smoother than others but it’s hard to judge unless you a b it with a cabinet live

Thanks, Don
Pss im new to the whole mic'ing a amp.thing...
Close micing will introduce a proximity effect so it's worth a try!

Man brother I have been trapping wild skunks for a week that imvaded my yard. If you dont have them down under thank the gods up high because they stink with this oily stuff they spray if they feel threatened and they can carry rabies bad when older.

Love that DGT. That and your carbon fiber Robotto guitar are my current favs of yours.
Great tones man. Great demo sir. ❤❤❤❤
Be well my friend and be safe and God speed brother. ❤
Angus and Malcom had it all figured out
@@LeonTodd Yes they did sir!
is that a new strat?
@LeonTodd what ex did you use at the end? Were they through the front or with a Fryette PS2?
Added in the DAW - Soundtoys Microshift and Fabfilter Timeless
@@LeonTodd Nice. Thanks! Love my PLEX. Great amp.
Greased up? Which effects?
Soundtoys microshift and Fabfilter timeless
Yep Friedman makes great stuff. Expensive. But you get what you pay for. Take care 😊✌️✌️🎸🎸
This or a shiva? Why is that led flickering!!!
Camera frame rate
wayyy too sick. does it feel as tight as it sounds?
Feels awesome!

Got a spotlight trained on you. You should hear my Blackstar HT Stage 100, best sound I ever had.
Wolfgang tones and you play Ratt lol
This, or your modded 1959HW?
possible to be used also without the stroboscope?
Yeah just adjust your frame rate 🤣
It sounds gritty and scratchy with a squishy pick attack... my little Bogner Ecstasy Mini head pees on it.
it sounds pretty much like my marshall studio vintage 20 mini plexi but with more bells and whistles.
😂
@@bcm1621 It's true 😉
If it wasn’t for Mesa Boogie, Friedman would be my favorite amps.
Second place is the first loser.
Good isn’t it. 🎸👌🎸✌️😉
Awesome forget the new marshall
This may not be your thing, but I defy anyone to find an amp that does that thing better than this one does.
This
Give me the brightest amp, I will be happy :)

I'm sure it can be dialed in just the way you like .....
@@yeti1002 me too, but the point is if you’re going to try to dial in a classic plexi tone do it right. Usually, I love his content. This one was off.
