Man, the green Maxon OD with the recto is such a classic tone
That Mesa with the 808 is my favourite distortion sound I’ve heard. Ever.
Green with the Mesa wins for me. Red on JCM800 wins for me. Although it’s splitting hairs. Great video.
I thought the exact same.
Dean H I agree. The Marshall does it for me too. Especially with a boost in front
808x sounded absolutely mental on the 2203
I've had a dozen or so heads in my day and the JCM800 is one of the best amps ever made IMO. With the right Boost pedal it can do anything and everything. Both pedals sounded great with both amps. Consider the source. Still, Winner,Winner,Winner lol. Favorite channel on YT for Amps and Pedals.No excessive talking or boring stories, just facts . Meat & Potatoes, Texas style.
Tone is as good as the performance, absolutely incredible. I prefer the red for both here.
Thanks! Th red one is my choice as well by a slim margin.
One of the best comparison of this two pedals on youtube - IMHO.
Great job!
Awesome vid as always man! The ODX does give a little something extra tonaly to my ears. With Maxon, you can't go wrong!
I really enjoyed the playing! Straight into the amp was the best. I like the raw sound. The OD808 has a nice vintage, tight sound though.
OD808x with the JCM 800 Is absolute tonal perfection. Will definitely be purchasing one for myself.
Green sounds so classic. Red does sound more modern....but damn, both are killer. Great vid.
Thanks!
That Mesa and Green Od808 had Nevermore tones all over it. Especially from the Dead Heart album.
The man is back in town
Don't you mess me 'round
Man all of it sounded great, I have an MK3 Marshall built in 1990, my understanding is that it's basically a 800 carryover in parts until 92, anyway I will be buying the red Maxon.great video.
Great demo man. JCM and green one rules :-) I love that combination the most.
Killer playing, I had to subscribe. Love the dual rec.
Someone likes Erik Rutan tones lol. He uses the duel rec and the jcm 800 with those exact pedals. Because its fuckin rad. Good video man.
Sweetness!
808X really suits that Marshall with the more aggressive tone. Propably why old Anthrax sounds so sick, Scott didn't use a normal TS like everyone else.
When he start riffing i had biggest grin , I totally forgot about od pedals just enjoying the riffs!
Another killer video my dude
Red on both for me, although on the 800 it was kind of a draw. I adore the JCM800 with a boost pedal for metal.
Just did this shootout. Same settings and all and it was amazing. In the end I tried it with a boss sd-1 and surprised the shit out of myself on how good it did! Great videos!!!
Great video! I preferred the OD808X greatly with both amps, just had a little bit more of an aggressive cut to it which I loved.
I love both those pedals, the X is exactly what it says it is!
Them riffs are some smoking hot quality thrash my man.
Thanks man. Lots of thrash on my channel!
OD808X hell yeah 🎸🔊
I agree with your choice of the OD808X. I have both the regular version and the 808x and through a high gain amp the 808x just sounds better.
Tight as always!
Great sound \m/
Came for the comparison, stayed for the riffage. Very creative writting.
Great video as always, I have the green one and it sounds good with my Triple rec, the red one seems to me a little bit more focused on the treble frequencies...both sounds beautifully.
Thanks for the demo!!!
Steve Groebe you’re very welcome. Thanks for watching!
I like both amps a lot!! The Marshall hast bit more clarity in the sound for me and this snarling mides and headcrushing crunch and the mesa is shaking earth with balls to the wall. Both are absolutely great amps!!
The winner is both !!
Absolutely love the X with those amps as well as a peavy 5150. 🤘🤘
Hot Damn! It's a great day for a Killer Texas Tone vid!!!
Badass riffs dude
I got both of these as well, I like them both really. I favor the red for when I'm using say a Duncan JB. If I'm using an active pickup or a high output pickup like a dimarzio deactivator-x, I'll go for the green guy.
Actually both sound awesome. Re-listening.
Yeah I think they are both great pedals I just slightly like the X a bit more. Can't go wrong either way!
Hm, that ODX sounds pretty damn good!
Jocke Skog much cleaner in the low mids. You know, the ones we EQ out when mixing guitars!!
@@killertone I hate 400hz lol
The 808X sounded sick with the 2203. It didn't matter as much with the Mesa.
The Marshall with the green pedal sounds best to my ears
Saw the link to this vid on the Facebook 800 page.
This is a great video. You can you play your ass off!
I liked the green on the Mesa - the 808 tightens up the Mesa “flub” better to my ears.
With the 2203, I found it harder to pick. Both conplimented the amp nicely.
I’m away from my Apollo converters - I listened on apple ear buds on an iPhone 8 as I’m working away from home, so take it for what it is!
Thanks!
Yes, I hear the 808x more modern, both are great anyway, and good thrashhhhh 🤘🏼🤘🏼
Great video. Amazing playing. To the point and with the right amount of talking. I sub'ed!
Right on thanks!
With that 8 ocloc'k bass...Your neighbor bass player will be screaming "I f...ing can't hear myself!" Cool music by the way.
Yup, the red one rules for more aggressive tone. The green is more classic... there's a reason why the rockers and blues hounds love it, especially on a JCM 800 or older amp.
Those riffs are just...AAAAAAAAAHHH SO GOOD
808 sounded better with the recto because it has lower output imo
I agree. The 800 really benefits from the higher output.
I liked the red overdrive as well, although there is very subtle difference
Nice video and good demo like you said there's not a huge difference between the two
The green one all the way!
This demo is great. All your tone is great before and after boosts. That said, how would you compare the Maxon OD808* to an MXR GT-OD? or against the Mesa Grid Slammer? (your Grid Slammer demo sounds killer, so I wonder how it compares to the OD808, more/less gain, more/less aggressive? ) Thanks!
I've got a maxon 808 and was glad to see this video. dammit.... now I'm wondering about modding it or selling it or just biting another bullet.
spot on review.
back to say I got it and I love it. your review shows how beautifully tight and sparkly this thing is. I have three Orange amps and it absolutely kills on them all.
Honestly, doesn’t sound like you can go wrong with either one. I think I maybe prefer the JCM 800.
5:33 dual rec no pedal marshall no pedal 6:22
5:48 dual rec green od marshall green od 6:37
6:03 dual rec red od marshall red od 6:52
that was sick! nice nice sounds bro
It’s a toss up, but one thing’s for sure - I love your playing!
Great video. Love the old school tones and style. The 808 is perfect on the Mesa and doesn't need the extra, but the 808x absolutely sets that JCM 800 alight!
What's pick ups are in the Gibson?
Thanks! In this video it is a Bareknuckle Painkiller.
Great playing and sound! I will try that Maxon X since my coworker has it and see how it compares to my Boss sd-1.
1:39 Mesa 3:36 Marshall
I have a Marshall 2203 and had the OD808x. I shouldnt have sold it. the 808x sounds killer through a 2203. Because it cuts the bass some, I ran a cheap graphic EQ with just the bass frequencies boosted after the 808x and it sounded killer. this pedal is perfect for the 800.
D. Duke Why does everyone always sell their best gear? On every comments section there’s one of these comments.
The OD808X has a tighter and more defined bass frequencies which is particularly evident on the DR. The OD808's bass frequencies sound muffled and less defined.
Definitely the OD808X all the way
Green sounded tighter and the Red has more anger. I like both.
I don't care what your reviewing, I just like to listen to you jam! Is this all original material?
Thanks! Yes all original material.
Now this’ll be a memory test lol any idea which cab sim you used in the wall of sound suite?
Since I last posted I’ve moved from Amps to Helix so trying to replicate this awesome tone. TIA
Nice guitar badass
Face in knob :)
Nice ad, i like both amp !!
Have you tested an Boss SD1 for the Rectifier? Very good for me ;)
How have I missed your channel bro? Got my script!! Lol
Preferred the 808X, it had more harmonics and sizzle. It sounded dynamite in the Marshall.
That first amp gave me a dual rectum fire...🔥🔥 Ouch!
The red one doesnt sound like an 808, sounds like a ts 9 to me.....I prefer the green one because I love tons of mids, especially on solos.....my all time favorites are the maxon 808 green and airis proto drive, if I m playing my kartakou preamp based on the Engl....if I m playing my Randall thrasher, I don't need any od's
isaac thrashHmmm the 808X doesn’t sound like a TS9 when they are side by side. The 808 is much closer actually. For rhythm playing the lack of the low mids in the 808x make it a bit more tight sounding and feeling.
killertonetexas - You've got me curious now. I spent years trying pedals before finding the 808, and i was looking for that tightness in the palm mutes all that time. Didn't think i'd ever find anything better than it.
the 808X sounds tighter imo, great riffs :)
I agree
Your JCM 800 2203 sounds awesome. Are the setting the ones in the picture of the video? I have a 2203 from 83 and it doesn't sound full like that. It sounds a lot more like ac/dc
Those amps sound really similar the way you have them dialed in.
Reg 808 on the 800 all day
Guess I’ll have to contact godlyke now, dammit :)
Do it.
Nice video! can i ask you an info bro? i have the same JCM800 model (it looks the same at least), and i find out that without any boost it has really a low gain even on the high gain input. I've seen some of those heads on youtube and looks like they all have a bit more gain. Are there multiple versions of JCM800 lead with vertical input or it can be and internal setting like tube bias or something?
Man. You inspired me to get a dual rec and still considering if I should get Maxon od808x vs Fortin Grind. I got the rectifier but can't get this sound. I would appreciate if you took the time to let me know the settings on the amp. I cannot read it on the screen and dying to get this sound. Please help me here :)
Good evening and thank you very much for the video. I would love to hear your opinion which is more aggressive. Between these two pedals, thank you. maxon od808 extreme and the mesa boogie grid slammer.
Looking for a boost for my Orange Rockerverb that has a darker low mid focused sound, which one do you think who push the high mids more?
After much debate between the pedals I would say the marshall head wins
What was your WOS settings. I can’t seem to get my impulses to sound this good
jesus that just tore my face off
jonathan davis right on!
Great Vid and comparison! How did you get that much gain on the 800 stock or modded?
Stock! Just nailed the front end of the amps with the level output of these pedals.
Hello, for you does the Jcm800 mini could be a good choice for this kind of sound
Great video! If I wanted to swap up from my Ibanez mini TS to either of these or the Fortin Grind, which would you recommend?
What amps are you using?
I have a Mesa Mark V 35 with a “saturation mod” which lets me drive the gain harder. Without the TS though it sounds muddy; with the TS everything comes together.
Any thoughts?
me interesa ver solo el tono del pedal no como booster...
Which song is this ? Sounds awesome
The red has more bite and top end
If you turned the drive up a little wouldn't you get the same output?
Uhh noob guitarist here, can I get the tab for those riffs?
Marshall looks bright...vintage...but if we add with maxon dod 808x...more.modern...maxon dod 808 green more classic...
So more mids or more bass
Red asymmetrical clipping? 🪓🤔
I've got the OD but the ODX sounds better to me
Hi!,the tubes in Marshall are el34?
The Green Pedal retains clarity and low end doesn't get list like with the Red Pedal.
Which od keep a lot of defined bass boosting rectifiers?
Try the Pro Tone Dino Cazares OD pedal or teeh MXR Custom Modified Badass OD. Also the Fortin Hexdrive and Airis Savage Drive are great. Any of those will still have lots of bass left in the tone but still be super tight.
What settings do you have on the 808 ?
Gain - barely above 0, Tone - 1 o'clock, Level -cranked
