1943 Gibson Southern Jumbo
Quick clip of a 1943 Gibson Southern Jumbo at Twangcentral Guitars. A beautiful example of a classic wartime Gibson acoustic guitar. All class, unlike the playing....

Quick clip at work of a seriously good value for money Tokai guitar. Straight out of the box! Chinese models (like this) are great, the Japanese stuff is something else. Gibbo? Naaah :)

Just messing around with my new JTM45 Reissue! Guitars an 06 Gretsch White Falcon 6136DS with TV Jones Powertrons. Sorry bout the slop :P
Mahogany or Maple neck?
Thanks
Very good! CREAM!!!! Great amp! What TOKAI are you using us60korea or china? Original pick ups? I have to buy a TOKAI UES78 CHINA. I wanted to mount 2 PAF pick ups. Which advise me for a full and full-bodied sound What do you think about it? Thanks .
Mine says made in china, not the korean one, the pups are really good, but gonna try a seth lover set, but is more a me tal thing for me… the pickups are tokai mk4 and Sound really good
Nice playing 😊👍
Great stuff!!. Thanks for the demo, not many Tokai 335 MIC demo out there.
Yeah its good and all if your lucky. Chinese made means qc non existent
That's rubbish based on 20 years ago...your microwave or washing machine was most likely made in China...nearly every Chinese guitar I played was fine....
Got one of these in SA for 800. Great guitar.
You must get heaps of blowies
You have nimble fingers! Two dragons.
And big brains. :)
The Chinese models straight out the box are great guitars, the Japanese models straight out the box, are, OMFG!!!
Never knew Ashton Kutcher played guitar.
Nice Tokai
The JTM has a warmer, darker and mellow tone. Heavy on bass and mids, smooth treble. 1987 has a superlead tone with less headroom.
@math101a Yes. But if you already have it cranked and then pump more gain into it with a pedal the amp will over compress. Over compression is a sound you have to experience. I can't explain what it sounds like, I guess the nearest I can get is as if every note you play is produced at the same volume (pick attack means nothing when over compressed) and sustain lasts years for each and every note. Some people love it and some hate it. I'm a lover but it sounds BOLLOCKS for chords :D
Could you drive this amp into a more dirty sound using pedals? For example like the plexitone pedal?
@jomparock1 A White falcon in an old Marshall= Malcolm Young!!
How did you get those powertrons into a 6136DS?
@UbangStomper Amp. I have it now. It's AWESOME. =)
@BashYouLongtime Which one?! Guitar or amp? either way, ya can't lose hahaha!
GOD YES. I CAN'T WAIT TO GET MINE! UGH!!!!!!
@SoloEpi usually it is 6L6's
@Mackollas Sorry for the late reply mate, been away! Nah I reckon the volume wasn't much past 3 or 4 into the top bright channel!
@guitarlordification Cheers mate! Yeah was a lovely amp! Got it for just on 2k at the time. It was one of the first years they made the JTM45 reissues, so i was pretty happy price wise haha. Cheers, yeah I love Gretsch's, though I love Fenders also, and I've got some big love for SG's and Les Paul Juniors too! Take it easy mate! :)
Shit mate! Nice fucking amp! How much cash did that amp guzzle outta ya wallet? Nice axe as well! Gretch rules (par with Gibson and Fender)!
Nah mate, bright volume @ 10 o'clock, and I think it was -8db on the hotplate too. Miss that amp!
Setting on volume in this clip?
Hey man, love the video. i have just ordered a Black Falcon with filtertrons. How to you find the Falcon for Blues? can you get a nice Gibson ES-335 type tone? I know that's a strange question, but I'm on the fence as to whether a 335 might better serve me.
@8x26x08 Depends, if your more concerned bout a sparkly clean that breaks up nicely into creamy overdrive, I'd go a 45. I think the 1987s are better for a tighter, more aggressive tone. Solid stake rectifier in the 1987 feels quite different to the valve JTM's. Lame I know, but I'd be happy with either. More headroom with the 1987 but. I'd do yourself a favour though and get a hand wired clone of either for cheaper!
@kyzrvlhlm1995 Nothing really, just screwing around mate!
whats the riff at 0:37?
@pabldpozo Thanks man! English is fine ;) Well the original pickups were great, but for the sound I was going for, they were just a little lacking in the midrange. That's why I put the filtertrons in. I've got the TV Jones Classics in it now though. So yeah, the Dynasonics are great, but they just weren't QUITE what I needed I guess :)
@cstrombeck They're Celestion Super 65's mate. It's one of those Kustom 4X12's with the basketweave type grille cloth. Cheap as, but I don't mind the sound of it. Hankering for a Marshal 1960TV with greenbacks though!
@SoloEpi Hey man, I can't quite remember now! Haven't had the amp for some time. From memory, I'm pretty sure they were JJ 6L6's.
what kind of tubes are in your JTM45? I'm new with tubes and how they all sound different.
chris cheney would be proud!
@kjeqc Hehe, nah the one's they're making now are to exact vintage specs, in regards to body size anyway. Always been 17 inches across the lower bout. I think what you may be seeing is just the guitar looking huge on Malcolm Young, who's 5' 3" lol. I'm about 6' 3" so it maybe looks a bit smaller perhaps?
@Jake251292 Hey man, sorry for taking so long! Hard to describe really, it is loud for sure, probably plenty loud enough for most venues just on its own. Only thing I found was that it didn't have a great deal of headroom. Problem being I'd have my rhythm tone set up nicely, but there wasn't a lot of room to move for solos, it just compressed more kinda. That's why I ended up getting a JMP. Still, it was a killer sounding amp!
how loud would you say this amp can go through a 100 watt cab?
Haha yeah little bit man, mainly just trying to see if I could get close to those sort of tones. Cheers :)
Was nice to wake up looking at for sure, and it doesn't hog the sheets ;P
Hey man, yeah cos it had the Dynasonic p'ups beforehand, had to do have a little routing done, which unfotunately was botched by the tech :( routed for Gibson style p'ups...long story! But you can't notice it. I ended up putting classics in there and mounting them like Gretsch do for trestle bracing. PM me if you want more details. Other mods...TV Jones harness and a Bigsby aluminium bridge. BIg tone improvement from that one. All up I reckon it would've been around the 3-400 mark for mods.
*UPDATE* The JTM's been replaced by a Ceriatone JMP Plexi clone and I've swapped out the pickups for TV Jones Classics. Sounds unreal! Will try post a clip soon :)
Hell yeah man, Malcolm's tone is what I try base mine around :) I use 10-54s so the bottom strings have got a bit of beef to them. Used to use a full 12-54 set, but it just felt like it was killing the airiness of it somehow. Intelligent description I know haha.
please do more vids! PLEASE
me too!
dream rig
Hey man cheers! It's just a Kustom 4x12, which has Celestion Super 65's in it. Not exactly ideal, but it sounds pretty good anyway :) Hail Hail Rock n Roll!
Yeah man the combo sounds great. Yeah i havent really heard much sounds of supertrons but im sure cheney has used them at one point or another. but the classics are also amazing i love them, but then again all the TV jones pickups are fantastic he really does a good job. as for my amp ive only got a pretty standard marshall 100HDFX but it does the job pretty well for me, i only use the clean channel and run my pedals through it though cos i dont really like the distortion channel.
Cheers mate, yeah was really digging the powertrons and JTM-45 combination. I'm kinda thinking about swapping them for some supertrons, powertrons are great, but would just like a bit more twang I think. I think the powertrons would be fantastic in a solidbody though, probably going to put them in a tele I think. As for the hotplate, it's pretty good at what it does, though I find it's best to attenuate as little as possible. What amp are you running mate? Maybe check out weber attenuators too!
