They're all in there (the Marshall classics), you've just got to coax them out. 4 channels and 3 distinctive modes per channel will give you everything from the 1962 through to the more recent shred machines. It's a big, badass beast of a thing and I'm still learning to ride it, but I thought you might be amused at a look at my first day in the ring. I love this thing!

This is the best amp Marshall did since jcm800. It sounds fantastic! Love it!
Yes it is. I missed my 2204 after selling it but the jvm I had came so close to that 800 sound and many others. Marshall would struggle to design anything better as an all rounder. Master volume and di was excellent too.
That is the best sounding Marshall I have ever heard. Tons of versatility at your disposal. Awesome.
You should hear it modded!
From one Aussie to another; so many knobs, so many tones! I love my 2555x but the nuance each channel allows on the JVM (while keeping its brash character) is impressive. Great playing!
I bought myself a JVM410H in late 2014 - (my first Marshall) paired mine with a 1960AX cab and I love it, I have tried the JCM 800 and Silver Jubilee 100w heads since then, and while I really like those I prefer the JVM I think partly because I'm just used to it, and its layout makes finding and switching sounds so easy, thanks to the 4 channels. But I did get a 20w "Studio Series" Silver Jubilee combo for when I go for a jam.
Brett, this was a fantastic, straight forward no BS review. Great edit that shows amp settings while playing a bit. I've wanted a JVM for a while now. I own several Marshall's and still love them.
Great demo. Funny enough I've owned one of these--along with a 1960A cab--for a dozen years, but for the last 10 it has sat mostly idle in the corner of my "room of rock", displaced in my musical heart by a series of Fractal products. But every now and then I fire it up again and am always impressed by that huge, beautiful sound!
These are fantastic amps! I bought the 410h a year ago and it will do anything you want. We play classic rock and it covers all the bases. Great review!
Wow, surprised to see its review after so many years. Although JVM410H is still Marshall's flagship.
Full volume would knock my house down haha , very informative as always Brett cheers from Scotland .
Love the JVM...Killer amp, but let's not leave out that Explorer...
I love mine. I've had it for about 10 years. Clean green channel isn't working now. All others are working fine and sounding killer through a jcm800 1960 with g75s . It has everything I need and way more!
I have the combo version. Absolutely love it!
I took one for a test drive....its ridiculously big! The sound that this monster puts out is just humongous, its an experience for sure, i just dont know where they go from here?
Its like the fuel guzzling big block 427s we look back on and think "man was there a need for something like that? But goddamm im glad they made it"
That's a great review. And I concur. It's a beast. Which, I guess, is why I love it.
Best thing Marshall released in the last 20 years. Got mine 4? 5? years ago, and basically bought it for the clean channel 😊. I don‘t care much for its high gain stuff - never really used the OD channels - but the Clean and Crunch sections provide 50 shades of marshally goodness alone. Oh, and do check out the way the tone controls work on Clean - if I remember correctly, they sit before the gain stages and interact differently with one another and Gain than they do Crunch and OD. The Mid control especially works almost like a secondary gain function - bag it if you want less gravelly sounds.
Christoph Rauch yea I’m looking for a loud amp that can play clean that’s not a fender so that I can put pedals in front of it.
For some reason, the JVM copped a lot of shit. I think it's one of the best Marshalls released in a long time! Can do country all the way to death metal easily
Internet gear snobs are the worst. Someone could demo Jimi Hendrix or Tony Iommi's actual gear, and the miserable trolls will still manage to find a way to shit all over it.
T.
It is
@@philsmith3019 this is the most accurate thing said ever about the internet
Exactly
makes me want to get my JCM900 fixed (again) - once spilt an entire pint of beer before the 1st Wolfhaven song (at a NYC gig) down the amp head top vent! got kicked out of the bar by the sound man when I plugged into the bass players bass amp . -POP! - but I double book as the next band but under a different name. I played my ass off and remember pissing after the show and the sound guy pissed next to me and said the show was brilliant! then Stings song came up to me and complemented me on the show (I didn't know who he was) - cool amp man!!!
Man, those pickups really drive the amp. Don't change 'em!
Agreed lol. Too hot? Nonsense! They sound fantastic.
Brett this demo is so good I already have a jvm and I wanna buy it again lol.
Best amp they ever made. Does all the Marshall sounds and more
I had one of these and they are great versatile amps. With the midi switching and 2 masters/ multiple reverb etc means you can get everything you need. I got rid of it though as a lot of what you get is just unusable levels of gain and the noise was crazy. I wasnt surprised to see on forums that there are so many popular MODs to improve these exact things
I have a JVM 205H and 1960A cab w/ Celestion 75s. Way, way, way too much gain staging in the OD channel. Mods to reduce this are very popular. The stock 1960A cab is thin and tinny (not surprising Bergs is using Laney cab with different speakers....). In its defense, midi control is awesome, footswitch is great. Keeping it b/c I want to die knowing that I own a Marshall half-stack.....but my pedalboard is always plugged into a Hot Rod Deluxe. Brett's Boss ES-8 video did it for me. My pedalboard is damn-near identical. Rock On.
I find the 410 doesn't go well with a 1960A. IMO that pairing sounds absolutely terrible.
Wow!!! What a beautiful sound !!! A smack in our ears !!! Does the sound of the JVM410C match, with two 12 speakers? Try this combo for us! The sound of Marshall really is flawless! You made a great sound!
I have the 410C since 10 years and is amazing, put a choke in place of the resistor and is even better. JVM has had a bad reputation and I think is not fair, properly dialed is just a fantastic amp, and I own a JCM800 from the 80s and a plexi! But this JVM is as good as you want it to be.
Why does he have such a bad reputation? I think his sound is amazing! And what is the purpose of this resistor? How should I put it?
@@laudirjunior8922 In jvmforum.com you can find lots of info, I loved the new feel with the choke and highs were turned a bit more mellow perhaps, also it reduced its noise floor. No idea why it has a bad reputation, in Internet many people talk without evidence, just repeating others opinion. But this video shows it is a great amp.
Thank you for this information. I think this amp is one of Marshall's best, with a powerful and incredible sound. There will always be people speaking ill of everything. What matters is whether you like it or not. Your own opinion. I love the sound of the JVM! One of the best valves of recent times!
Best amp they've released in my opinion. You need to put in a bit of time 'learning' it but once you do... awesomeness follows.
I got one it's bloody brilliant!! The foot switch is kak for stage so I put bigger LEDs in mine now it's great!!
Best tube amp ever i own a 410h with choke mod total killer 🤘🏻🤘🏻😀
I bought a 410H just after it first came out in 2007-08.......still love it. Versatile. Needs a few mods to tame the harshness though but even right of the box it nails everything.
what mods did yuo do?
@@1981SG I had a choke mod done, they removed a resistor on the output and switched a Mercury Magnetics choke in its place. Cleaner tones. Also had a few otehr mods done to clean it up. Gain reduction mod to lower the overall gain available on each channel so it isn't so buzzy.
Dude! 🤩🎸What a tone! Great looking Gibson too is that yours?
Hey Shane! Yeah, the Gibbo's mine too. I've had it for a while but the pickups are too hot (as evidenced here) so I'm going to stick some PAF's in it and see how confident I can be on stage with such a weapon. The thing about the Explorers is: The CHUNK, the rhythm sound ... I know why Hetfield loves them and Rick Nielson and a few others. It's the sound.
One of the greatest Explorer exponents of recent would have to be Lee Malia. Check out Shadow Moses by Bring Me The Horizon. Absolutely slamming.
Sweet! I got a 2019 flying v a few weeks back and they have Burstbuckers which are maybe some of the nicest sounding humbuckers I have. Lots of top end too. It was neat hearing you with the gain dialled in like this :-) Great job.
I have that exact guitar and put Seth Lovers in. Oh yeah!
@@intheblues I have Burstbuckers in a couple of Les Pauls and I prefer them over anything else I've heard in a Gibson. At least in the flesh, I've not heard a set of original PAFs apart from on recordings. 😎
My dream amp, sounds amazing!
Just pick a used one up ,I love it ,all the classic sounds 😀
This amps is isanely versatile, also works with low volumes and sounds great and its price is more than just! What else does one man need?
I normally don’t say this, but you’re getting some killer tones out of that thing. I usually only like Mesa mark series.
Hey Brett. I’m a bit late to the party, but I’m after one of these! Sounds great. You had the volume/master volume pretty low… most Marshall’s need the master cranked to sound any good. Is this different? I’m hoping so because I’d pretty much have no use for it if it needs to be cranked, even for gigs. Cheers. Jonny
It is a lot of different tones in one but also a LOT more to go wrong!Cheaply made, whoever came up with the bright idea to mount the power tubes on the PC board should be smacked really hard lol! When you cram all that different switching and stuff into one amplifier it makes it a technician's nightmare, the best amplifier I've played as far as Channel switching amps go is the metropoulos Metroplex! It is also a PC board amp, but the board is almost a quarter of an inch thick built like a tank! It costs probably twice as much as the jvm,but it will still be rocking long after the jvm becomes a doorstop! I'm a marshall fanatic always have been but these were not built to last!
What about the bias points and fuses mounted on the board!!
@@flobeeonekinobee2353 Yeah that also,the only amps Marshall builds that are quality are the Handwired amps and they are waaay overpriced unless you buy one used,that's why there are so many clone builders out there.The only ones that sound good are the ones that use Sozo or NOS mullard caps,but they are still cheaper than a HW marshall.I have two HW clones one 50w cascaded gain and 100w plexi and they both are reliable and sound killer!
Are you using a distortion pedal with it? I just got this Amp and I am not getting the same sounds but rather clean tones.
Speakers make a huge difference. Plus you don't have Brett Kingman's golden touch!
Some speakers tend to break up easier. You can use high output pickups and a boost pedal to compensate that.
I have a Fryette PS-2 that never leaves my JVM410’s side. You can do a lot of dialing, pedal experimentation, but unless you’re playing a venue large enough to crank it a good reactive load attenuator is the only way to get the Marshall sound you have in your head....we all have in our heads. If you hear it in person, you’ll understand what I mean.
This is probably the best Marshall I've ever played. It's a beast!
I modded mine as soon as I got it...Did a gain reduction mod which took out the fizz...a resonance and presence mod whick gave it that classic Marshall bottom end and warmth....Did the Mecury Magnetics transformer and 10 henry choke mod...its a lot better than it was and dont sound so thin anymore....oh and the reason Gibsons go out of tune is the truss rod adjustment..I need to adjust mine once a week sometimes, thats the nature of the beast...A maple neck dont move like mahogany does.
Sweet Jebus! I think OD1 channel should be renamed "Are You Kidding" and OD2 renamed "For The Love Of God NO". Massive gain.....
The Drive channel on the JVM205 and 210 models is the same as the 410's OD2. I don't know why anyone would need more than Orange mode on either OD1 or OD2. Oh well, "because it's there".
@@phantasmagora6542 I'm thinking about it more like you could do a setup with 4 tone presets. From really clean, a little bit of breakup, then crunchy and finally all the way to saturated lead..
@@ze-ce.cra_ I used that configuration for a while. The issue with the stock JVM410H, though, is that OD2 has a built-in mid shift that centers around 500khz, rather than the typical Marshall 650khz. This gets you a thinner scooped sound typical of modern metal, which I personally don't like for rhythm guitar, much less lead.
The JVM410HJS is cool in that respect; the OD1 and OD2 channels are voiced the same, but both can be mid-shifted via a button. This gives you more options as well as separate EQ control if you want to use OD1 and OD2 as rhythm and lead channels respectively.
Amp sounds awesome!! And the Explorer looks wonderful!!!
Well done Marshall!!!
Awesome amp. Everyone always reaches for the JCM (and for good reason) but there are definitely some good tones in the JVM. I also think the JMP1 is EXTREMELY underrated. They're going up in price again though, so maybe people are going back to the classic Marshalls.
1987x is my favorite marshall .I do have a jvm but I want the 1987x . I don't use the high gain stuff on my jvm so it occurred to me what I really want is the right gain ....plexi
@@billhannum4117 It's kinda funny you commented on this now because I just finished building a pedal completely designed around a 70s JMP I had in my possession for a while. While there are lots of Marshall in a box pedals out there, I find that most don't have a very good range of gain in that they either get dirty too quickly or don't have enough of that Marshall crunch when dialed back. So I agree with you, finding the right amount of gain in an amp is definitely important, especially with Marshalls.
@LeviBulger those jmps are just magic . Something that no other amp does..never found that kind of harmonic content in any other amp.the way it compresses is perfect.
Hi Brett awesome tone man and nice axe! Have you still got your 20 watt studio vintage mate and what do you think of them including the studio classic compared to the jvm? Cheers
Very nice review that I am just watching. Can anyone comment on how much noise the amp produces with higher gains on OD1 and OD2?
Ferocious!! Love it!
Would like to hear the ´low" gain channels with single pickups Brett
I've been using the JVM 205H (50 watt version) for 11 years now, and it's fabulous. The 410H?... way too many knobs.
Love it Brett!
So basically the perfect bedroom amp burgs....
It sounds good in this vid for two reasons: 1. The cab and speakers. 2. Low volumes. Turn that amp up with gain and treble like that on the OD channel and it will squeal and hiss and hum like nobody's business.
That is the reason you need to use a noise gate. With a good noise gate it isn't noisy at all.
May God have mercy on the tech who has to try to fix one of these with all the stacked PCBs in there. Sounds great though.
There are only two pcbs, not stacked: The main board and the front panel.
At this price point you are competing with Friedman and Bogner and others. Difficult to say it’s good enough at those couple things most will want to do with an amp.
Cant really agree from an european perspective. I cant find new bogners around here, but at 100w (i absolutely agree that there is a better value for friedman or maybe bogner if you want a lower wattage amp) the only friedman i found on Thomman went for 3.8K euros, while the JVM went for around 1.2K. DEFINITELY not at the same price point if you're going at 100W if you are in europe, not even Mesa Boogie. If anything, it competes with the 6505 since its mainly high gain, with the advantage that it also gives you the classic marshall sound
Nice as always Brett.
i had this amp, wonderful tone and best reverb ever but the slow channel switching made it un usable live.
Great demo!
When playing live with this amp do you hear any delay or is The transition seamless when switching channels in the middle of a song from clean to crunch with no delay?
I am looking to purchase one but I don’t have a chance to play it before hand at the music store there is nothing in stock please and thanks killer licks bud.z..
Brett, can you get all that high gain saturation, but at bedroom volume? I really love the sounds, but I don't gig, and it would be just for home use only. Cheers!
I read many people mod these amps 'cause they're too noisy for example ... would you guys agree?
Thanks!
Holy moley! I think the Clean Channel, as set up here, would be all I'd need for 90% of any particular gig. What a beast.
Marshall tone 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Power amp is the JCM800 power section
I have jvm410h too.
Enjoy od1channel with gain at 9, and volume up.
great stuff to me the jvm is the best marshall made it gets alot of flack it might not suit everyone but most of it is the amp snobs that dont like it because its not vintage or boutique
And as Affairs with reliability JVM410H? I have a 15 year old TSL100 Voodoo Lab and had to Tinker with it.
Hello, Brett! Amazing amp, cool explorer and incredible playing! Is it amp too loud for home playing? I mean flat.
I own a JVM410 h and it's the ultimate Rock amp to me. Slightly modded with the typical mods you find in the net ... it's awesome. I don't neeed any other drive amp. Brett try it with a Strat ... and see how the high gain sounds great even with single coils!!
Great amp, Very under-rated.
Under rated?? You know how many of these they made and sold? Lots. Personally I think they are awful noisy signatures of the death of marshall
second ride please ;-) Great Video
What pickups are in that guitar ? You say they’re too hot but it might be exactly what I’m looking for.
If I'm only allowed one amp, this is it?
Dirty Fingers? Good test and nice playing :) Is that mic straight on? I bet your setup would benefit of placing your mic 45 degrees to the cab, off centre to the speaker...
The Swiss Army Knife of Marshall Amps. And to think you didn't even toss any pedals in there ! LOL These can be scored for low money used comparatively speaking, making them a killer deal.
Killer deal until something breaks!
You could record an entire album and perform a tour with this Amp alone, no eqs, ods or distortions, boosts, compressors/sustainers needed.
Killer amp, only thing, those super flimsy loose push buttons. Look forward to having them replaced yearly.
Does it get any where close to the fender clean sound
sounds great
I might not be the target player for this amp. I would probably just use the clean channel on green most of the time. Sounds wicked, though :-)
Love my jvm
I’ve very rarely seen someone use a marshall head without a marshall cab. It’s weird.
Nice amp, bad thing is it has a lag when switching channels. Very annoying in live use.
Is this really with no OD pedal on???
Yep! This amp is sizzling hot!!!
Yeeeeeeah rock'n' roll !!!!!!!!!! :)
Stay in tune? I tried what Angus' guitar tech showed us in Rig Rundown for my Gibson. I used to wind my strings on normal or that messy way where you kind of tie a knot. The way he does it is interesting. One wrap over the string going thru the hole and the rest under. It locks the string and my guitar now stays in tune really well. The nut has to be right though.
lol, after hearing that I'd only need the clean channel!
That thing sounds like God In A Fucking Box! Clean and Crunch Channels are fantastic. This is why people still buy tube amplifiers. Great playing as well.
Kick ass
Great review! You should do a demo of the Peavey 5150/6505! All the demos on youtube are s..t! 99 stringed guitars tuned down to drop f**k off! :D
5:54 *centered
"cent-red" xD
Had one of these before I switched to the Ax8
Great amp, really miss it watching thia
How would you compare the Ax8 version of the JVM compared to the real deal?
Thanks!
@@1981SG I preferred it so much it was part of the reason the Jvm410 got sold and the Ax8 is my main rig nowadays
You made it scream
There’s just too much choice in good sounding, reasonably affordable gear these days, doesn’t help when people like you demo and rekindle GAS.
You should have a health warning ⚠️ on your channel.
Great demo as always but I’m spending the day getting to grips with a JTM45 I bought yesterday so stop it with the distractions Bergs.
😀
Did you use noise gate?
type of pre amp tubes?
Let's hear some Diminished chords on it
Great playing and video as always.
A comment on Marshall head amp Design : I find them completly huggly ! Not possible to adopt one in my living room.
Marshall guys should ask some help to Apple Design Dpt. I’m sure there is a way to mary vintage look with good perceived quality and Design.
Hmmm about $100 a Nob, sorry Out of My League, sounds great though
Try the 5 watt hotone heart attack. Drives a 4/12 cab sounds the same and cost me $145
Yeah...made in China
No real clean channel???
Looks like a rip-off of the Mesa Boogie Roadster
Brett - everything single thing you just said is either inaccurate or a straight up lie. Talking out of your ass usually means you have some issues.
I sincerely hope you eventually are able to make the changes that will help you resolve your issues.
Thinking before you open your mouth is a good place to start.
Good luck my friend.
Personally never liked these type of Marshall's, way to scratchy and noisy sounding. It's like you have music and you have noise that comes through any audio reproduction, on these type of Marshall's the noise is through the roof.
Prefer the real classic amps.
Brian Cullen all the classic Marshall’s sound like shit. Completely dull and if they are not modded.
Just returned mine it is garbage, bought a freedman instead
@@Sorbzski99 Which Freidman? I have a BE100 and its absolutely fantastic. Everyone who hears it loves it. Even cork sniffing Boogie players love it.
Ridiculous.. more knobs than a gay bar
