Hand-built for JHS by Milkman Sound using the industry’s finest components, the Loud is More Good is a harmonically rich, high-headroom tube combo that’s tailor-made for pedals. This Sweetwater-exclusive beast is all performance and no filler, eschewing internal effects and an effects loop for a simple, streamlined layout - it’s perfect for players who rely on their pedalboard for their tone. Not that the Loud is More Good is lacking in character. Plug in, and your playing will be injected with a bold, snappy, articulate flavor, along with the ideal quantity of sag and compression.

How about cheaper is more good?
Music Sucks 😂👍🏽
I have less than 200 in my five watt Diavlo, and I upgraded the tubes and speaker. This amp is cool, but I can’t afford it.
“Loud and Affordable is EVEN Gooder”
I'd love that! But, as it is, I just use my Fenders and an array of pedals. Save a lot of money, have a lot of great tones.
How about society pays and I buy stuff... because no matter the way, they’ll pay🤷🏻♂️😂😂
So I can get an amp that works great with pedals for only $2600?? Have I died and gone to heaven???
Wonderful demo! Best one yet from you guys.
$2600!? No way, no how. For that I'll go buy an american fender and a stereo combo of AC15's....
Or a kemper, or an original deluxe reverb, or a two rock, or a reissue plexi, or any other amp that's a much better value at 2700 dollars.
@@SpencerP96 At the risk of being redundant. My thoughts exactly.
@@vpisarski haha no worries man.
The amp isn't for everybody, but if you want to get the cleanest of clean possible tones a Milkman is basically the way to go. If you want the John Mayer sound to the enth degree, its the best way to go.
@@kylegoodman5196 that's my thought, i just ordered a princeton reissue for the cleans but wish i could afford this - the cleans sound perfect.
Wow nice. Sounded bright. Clear but bright. Even with the treble low
I love JHS pedals. I've got plenty jhs pedals and have killer tone for a fair price, but this just seems insane on the price point for a pretty simple amp platform. I get they used more expensive components, but I don't think many people will be willing to dish out 2600 bucks on an amp from an amp manufacturer not hugely know in collaboration with jhs obviously known for pedals.
That being said the amp still sounds great and seems to take pedals very well.
Love the jhs double barrel and Charlie brown. Rock on
The evh od w/the prs in a drop tuning = my fav part of this demo!
Chris Giannola Music sounded really good👌🏻
None of the milkman amps did for me but every Carr Amps were amazing and worth every penny.
carr is the greatest
Isn't this basically just a single channel blackface super? I get its hand-wired and Milkman makes awesome amps/quality... but seems pricey for that.
Great sounding amp...little pricey to consider for me. Really appreciate how simple it is and beautifully it responds to pedals. It is a tempting idea?
Why is everyone complaining about the cost? These aren’t a production amp, it’s a limited run Josh did with Milkman because he kept being asked about the one in his videos. Relax people✌🏻
It's Okay oh I definitely agree, it’s stupid expensive for just a basic amp.
No, YOU relax and stop trying to be the local "UA-cam comment moderator"!
nice, but price is crazy...
Reminds me of my 1949 Gibson GA-50, which is a very high bar, indeed.
The best demo player for Sweetwater.
Sounds Killer!
Literal music to my ears when I hear how linear the EQ knobs are. Exactly the amp I need now that I went back to the pedal "dark side"!
Thanks SW.
No fx loop for a good plate reverb and delay. Forget it for that price. I would pick up a used Marshall and Matchless
FACTS
Exclusive Is More Expensive... 😎 I love it though!
I got caught up with a Limited Edition handmade boutique amp endorsed by a You Tube channel years ago. My Evil Robot is a killer little amp but man, I sweat on it lasting the long term. I'd hate to take it a local tech & see if it could be repaired. For us normal folks, with limited access to repair techs who know what they are doing, it's best to keep with the bread & butter amps... I've got a Mesa Studio Preamp sitting idle that needs repairs that I can't find a decent repair tech in my area to look at.
Not knowing how to service tube amps like I do guitars is what keeps me away from getting a tube amp. I'll stick to Henriksen.
That is a perfect amp, just guitar cable into amp perfection!!!!!!😄😄😄
I was gonna say as soon as i heard it that it sounds expensive and yep it is. I just bought a BE 100 Deluxe and it has the same rich harmonics. I also bought a Milkman Pint combo thats wicked good and got a deal at 2k compared to list 2600. Overpriced? Yeah i think so but the more i play it the more i understand the details. As a player its inspiring but probably as an average listener it's par for the course. I also have Mesa Mark 5 and Fillmore and theyre great too, but the difference in dynamics is there.
Good grief I want on these. Probably up on my top 3 bucket list amps. I know there are better , mor e boutique , more coveted amps. But this is just perfect!
I agree with what the captain always says no reverb not interested I love JHS but for $2,600 put a spring in the damn thing
@@snouter I concede your point however you can't seriously think someone is going to gig with this JHS amp, you simply do not gig with a $2,600 white amp if it were a motorcycle it would be what we would call a trailer Queen not something to get down and dirty with on the road
David Morales this man has a point! White pricy amp... it’s not good for road
I can deal with no reverb. But, no effects loop??? For that price??? I'd rather go straight into the board!
@@DavidMorales008 A studio queen!
You could get a Princeton, a tele, and and handful of classic pedals.
I'm not usually one to jump on the "way too expensive!" bandwagon but in this case...all aboard!
I'm the same and I agree with this one.
Even though it has no gain....this thing's gonna' get dirty!
Thought Josh wasn't going to release these for public sale. Maybe I misheard him in one of his videos. For the price, I'll have to pass. Same reason I haven't bought a Bravado. Sweet playing by Don as always.
It was initially a "Custom" amp, but he decided to mass produce cos people kept asking for it. It's very good amp for pedals like the new Morgan's
Wow but I like that the pot's actually work unlike Marshall & others. Maybe with humbuckers might actually a contender for me 🤔
I just purchased this amp if you call Sweetwater you can get a better deal on it it was very well worth the money the last amp I'll probably will ever buy and I have on pretty much every amp out there just saying so don't knock it till you try it.
Holy Cow Don Carr using a guitar that’s not a PRS...I thought I would never see the day.
Hard to Tell . . Don Carr makes anything he plays through sound good. But yea, This amp does sound really good !
A fender amp is a circuit board slapped together mass produced box made in Asia. This is a hand wired amp made in the United States. It’s going to be more money. The hand wired fender USA amps are super expensive too.
Gotta cover all those California business taxes.
The second input is padded? Please clarify.
Hi, Psychonaut. The JHS amp shares the same design as most Fender amps where the second input is padded. This means that it will give you a lower/quieter signal. This is helpful if you're playing a guitar with high output pickups but don't want to overdrive the amplifier, or if you just want to be able to play at lower volume more easily.
Thanks for your interest!

The clean channel of a Fender M80 will get you there for a whole lot less cash. When I fist heard this JHS amp it sounded like a Solid State amp to my ears even though it is a tube amp. Plenty of SS pedal platform amps out there if you can't afford or are more prudent with your money. I also know how to build tube amps and stompboxes. I understand that this uses top quality parts, materials and workmanship thus the price reflects that.
5:31 kinda sounds like "Painters Of The Tempest Part II" by Ne Obliviscaris, but 7 minutes 4 seconds into the track
Man, diamond in the rough. Nice call out!
Wampler did the same thing with the Bravado
Only JHS can produce that pure deadpan tone
@mojotone Mt Pilot is probably the best “pedal platform” amp around, certainly more features than this, and the combo version is $1895 new. I’m sure this thing sounds great, but... pricing itself out of the market 🤷🏻♂️
He said the second input is padded(?). Could someone tell me what that means/does?
A padded input is less sensitive, so it is not as loud as the standard input. It allows the amp to stay clean, or have less breakup, with high output pickups
@@ThoraldM Thank you.
It would be great if this was a SYNERGY module! $400 would be MORE GOOD than $2600!
It's an AB763 circuit.
Very nice but expensive !
Great amplifier! Most people cannot afford a handmade amplifier. Even Chinese hand wired amps are pricey.
If it’s built to be a pedal platform then why no effects loop? You’re better off buying a seymour duncan powerstage and plugging into a cab of your choice.
I AGREE. I feel every amp past a certain price point should have a foot switchable effects loop with send and return levels adjustable. Although, many people would use this amp on the cleaner side and put their effects post dirt pedals
From what Josh said on his channel it doesn't do high gain or really much of any gain at all so there's no need for a loop, it's supposed to be a clean front end pedal platform.
ChrisK even with cleans it’s dumb for it not to have an effects loop or at the very least onboard reverb. If reverb comes after the amp section then it sparkles way more.
Yeah I don't care what josh said. low or medium gain, I want to have the choice to put my delay before OR after the preamp. I also want an effects loop that is bypassable via foot-switch so I have the ability to take it out of the circuit on the fly, as if it was never there in the first place. I'm not finished. I'd like to have send and return level control so I have the ability to fine tune my pedals and control the return level so it could be used as a master volume or something along those lines. Did I mention being able to run a different preamp into the effects return which gives you another channel? maybe my bar is set too high for $2.6k
Actually there aren't too many amps that have these routing options but I tell you whut. also, Josh seems like one kewl duder
@@aidandoesmusic Yeah I didn't think about it not having a reverb tank, for 2600 it should a dozen tanks!
Many people have asked him for this amp. Now they have it. Seems like a good thing.
Yes, the price is overblown for the simple circuit this amp has. (probably because JHS wants their slice of the $$ pie) BUT the amp is not "vastly inferior" to anything. I owned a Milkman and they are absolutely top-notch. One cannot buy a better-quality guitar amplifier at any price. Milkman amps are each hand-built by Tim Marcus, using the best of everything. This LIMG amp seems to sound amazing but would have been better priced around $2,000, IMHO.
I feel the problem is fender figured this sound out in any one of their variations throughout the tweed period through blackface. This reminds me of some kind of brownface kind of amp without the trem and full tone stack. I think wampler tried to do the same thing and it didn't succeed. I think mostly because at its price range people want a classic amp. That likely does a better job and has more happening. As i always say. Some of the best guitar tones in history were by mistake. Bassman 59 comes to mind. Meant for bass ended up becoming not only one of the most famous guitar amps but also was the inspiration and driving force behind what became the super lead and the rest of the Marshall line. One underpowered bass amp become the basis for one of the best sounds ever including those that even inspired distortion pedals themselves.
Is Josh on dope ...making this price
Dude just said its made by milkman, thats why its this expensive, its all american component hand made by a damn expert that is a one man company (milkman). Ofc 2600 is a fucking lot for a 40w combo but if you take all this stuff into consideration you get the price, even if you get it its not appealing but it is what it is
@@3_x_3_x So fucking what? Josh was stupid enough to put his name on it because honestly, it makes him look pretty damn stupid as well as greedy as hell.
You've clearly never played a Mesa Mark 4 have ya? Nope. Because you wouldn't think twice about this amp or its specs. It's overpriced AF, bro.
@@3_x_3_x dude, it's like 10 times the price of the components, and a few hours of labor. That's not just expensive, that's overpriced
An amp without a gain knob look's kind of scary to me, but since i got all my overdrive/distortion from my pedals, it makes sense i guess...🙄
Another Princeton?
Tell my man Josh hello...Not that Josh but josh Tippen
Nice ... but in that price range ... Mesa Boogie for me.
Exactly!!!
But does it go passed 11 ?
I had to
TFS
Someone needs to compare the Wampler Bravado, Keeley Supro 1970K, JHS Loud is More Good, vs the tried and true Fender Hot Rod Deluxe as to who wins best pedal platform amp. This amp has got a great name and does sound good.
I use the JHS Kemper profiles of that amp instead...they're FREE
Ill rather get a uses fender blues jr. with a WGS ET-65 speaker
So maybe I’d just buy a Fender Twin Reverb as my pedal platform
This amp sounds really amazing. It's obvious that the omission of reverb is for people to buy a reverb pedal from jhs. There's no pedal that can replicate the sound of a good real spring reverb tank though.
no f/x loop? Why wouldn't an ultimate pedal platform amp not want to add an effects loop for mod/delay/reverb?
Because it's a clean only amp, no gain, no need for a loop.
No effects loop? $2600$
No way
It does look bad ass though. All white with 4 knobs. Just awesome but it should be more affordable and have an fx loop. Josh is still the nicest coolest pedal dude on youtube. His videos are the best for gear geeks.
@Generation X he means that the amp isn't dirty on its own. The idea would be that you would use an effects loop to bypass the gain of your amp for certain effects.
A pedal maker designs an amp... with no effects loop. Say it to yourself.
Mark Johnson it’s designed as a non-master volume high headroom clean amp so you probably won’t get much preamp distortion. Any drive you get is really going to come from pedals so as long as you get your pedal order right you don’t need an effects loop
@@andreweasombentley4703 it's 2700 dollars. I want the option of an effects loop for 2700 dollars.
@@SpencerP96 Well, plenty of other options out there for you but pretty sure these will sell out either way (i have no affinity to any of the brands or retailer involved byt the way and have never owned any of their gear, I just wanted to clarify how it's designed to work)
Has the headroom to take pedals up front
lol sounds amazing with a guitar and cable... immediately zooms into morning glory and HOF2 pedals... wut
$2600 for the simplest 40w amp that anyone can build?? really!? just 2 preamp tubes, 1 single channel, 2 push-pull 6L6 power tubes, diode rectified, only 4 controls (vol, treb, mid and bass).. i've already built a couple of much more complex amps for less than 1/5 of this price... sorry, i could not keep in silence!
Just put the word "Boutique" in your amp and charge 6x more.
I couldn’t build that. I’ve built a guitar but electronics is beyond my understanding.
I wouldn’t pay $2600 for that amp even though. If I had that kind of money to burn I’d still look for something more versatile.
Milkman doesn’t pick up his soldering iron for less than $2k. Love the idea of pedal makers developing amps, hate the insane price tag these simple pedal platforms seem to always go for.
@@thesunabsolute the clue is in the name with this one.
Angelo Probst so did you buy it or what?
More is more........
It better sound amazing for $2600! geezuz
This is about the best pedal platform one could ask for, hand built and hand wired.
People be whining about price but it IS hand-made in the USA, so...
Damn for that price and no effect loop? That's a major skimp out! They say it's good with any pedal. What about my reverbs and delays?
there's no preamp distortion so your reverbs and delays will probably sound just fine (usually better, in my opinion) going into the front end anyway. That said, it's a ridiculous price for just a clone of a tweed Bassman circuit. The circuit is so simple, it's what they use to make beginner kits!
OMFG - no loop!? Dude, that is such garbage for a $2600 amp. What a joke!
@@joywolfe. Wrong. So very wrong. "reverbs and delays will probably sound just fine (usually better, in my opinion)" - Dude, no. That's not how it works.
@@RasCricketSmallAxe You sure like the smell of your own farts. I know how FX loops work, I just don't think they're always necessary. I think that they often sound overbearing and lifeless in comparison to running them into the front end. Guitarists survived without FX loops for decades, and they didn't whine about it. It's personal taste, get over yourself
@@joywolfe. you’re damn right I do
I know Wtf I’m on about, bud
Extremely bright 🤔
Just adding to the pile, but that is way too expensive. I’m sure the components are top quality, but for a circuit that appears as simple as that? No way. I was excited when Josh said he’d release a batch of these, but that’s out of my range. Great sound, but still.
One of the simplest circuits around. This would be the kind of thing a beginner would be through a kit amp.
@@SpencerP96 My thoughts exactly
I dont see a lot to get excited about here. Especially for that price tag.
Jesus, just get an Axe FX for that kind of money! Ay yi yi...
JazzzRockFuzion just do that then lmao it’s a way better use of money
This amp is expensive as hell and overpriced, no disagreement there, but you just compared apples to toyotas. If the axe fx is your thing, you are probably not not looking for an amp like this. That's why they mass manufacture amps like the boss katana and line 6, etc.
They are very different animals and often used by very different players.
Let's put this amp in context. The purpose and beauty of this amp and amps like this ( soldano astroverb for example would be a fair comparison other than wattage and astroverb has reverb.) is the simplicity of design, and purity of signal path. They want it as " organic" and dynamic as possible. This is a hand built, limited run, tube amp built around a very specific purpose using top quality parts ( the mercury mag transformers alone cost a pretty penny) verses the cheap smd and low quality printed PC boards, horrible generic mylar caps and leaky electrolytic of the same crap quality that most mass produced amps are plagued with. There is a huge difference in cost to build as well as construction quality and the cost will reflect that. It sucks that it doesn't have a reverb but other than that it is exactly what ya want in a great single channel pedal friendly 40 watt tube amp and having one built like this from any quality custom builder using the components mentioned in the video is gonna start at about 2500
👌🏿
At that price just buy a tone king imperial
These will be limited edition so, $2,600 is a steal. Just wait until they go full Dumble-Klon.
Yeah, any amp made with these parts will be top dollar.
😂
At this priced it's not even stereo? Did not even sound that loud IMO- he was near 8 and it was like any other small amp. Instead, I would easily grab a FM9 and a nice pair of FRFR speakers/monitors and be done with it. I also have tinnitus. Loud is More Worse! His playing was nice though.
So... The company that makes pedals to give you od/distortion at lower volumes is trying to tell me that loud is more good???
The price is about average for a boutique 40w amp. Same price as a Friedman Dirty Shirley, £200 more than a Morgan AC40.... Meh..
I still wish it were less expensive, but... you're not wrong. It's around par for the course.
Why is JHS making amps now?
Matthew Caesar they’re not. Milkman just made a limited run of these on behalf of jhs.
It's milkman
@@silverpairaducks I thought they looked familiar
After buying this amp. You could say poor is more unhappy.
2600 will buy you all sorts of vintage amps that will kick the snot out of this toy
Expensive is More Poor amp
$2600? meh
Well it's made by Milkman so I'm not too surprised. All of their amps are extremely pricey.
I really wanted to hear it all the way up, why stop?
the price is right sounds amazing made in the usa!!! awesome
Too many fingers in the pie wanting their cut - you would think jhs would build them given that they build pedals, then maybe the price wouldn't be jacked up, besides sweetwater is high anyway - they wont have many takers on this
2,600 DOLLARS. GOOD LORD. I COULD BUY LIKE 3 AC30's FOR THAT PRICE.
“Pedal platform amp”, almost any amp can be a “pedal platfrom amp”. It’s just a marketing trick.
2600 USD? You can get cheaper stuff that are VASTLY superior, more features, fx loops, built in reverb, and much less money, and you can use whatever pedals you damn please with the same or much better results than this, and if you are willing to spend that high (still less) there is a ton of options that are far superior, off the top of my head:
-100w Mesa Boogie lonestar combo (2 channels, selectable wattages, fx loop, a billion settings, super spring rev etc), and
- 40 watt victory duchess dp (1400 USD), single ended and a billion settings for less than quarter the price made in UK
- tone king imperial II: 20 watt, 2 channels , unique mid boos, super tremolo, super reverb, built in super attenuatoer!!!!
All these and any “ good “ tube amp, from some fenders, ac30s, egnaters and others, have more value and features than this, and in some cases the same or better quality, yet nothing reaches the inexcusable price of this mythical “unique pedal platform”. It sounds great, but that should be the standard in making amps, it kinda is for most.
Here's the thing a true "pedal platform" amp would be equivalent harmonic response as a frfr speaker as in a completely flat eq. Which would sound horrible just plugging your guitar in to.
@@SpencerP96 There is No special Harmonic Response on Full Range Speakers, FR speakers just have a very near flat EQ, and this is not the same at all, off course a guitar would sound horrible connected direct to FR speaker, With FR, you are reproducing an existing sound with minimal to zero coloring, By pedal platform, they usually mean a good clean amp that WILL sound good by itself, and can get the best sound out of your pedals, which does not make any sense, cause it is the other way around; your sound starts in the amp, pedals do NOT HAVE sound, but alter the signal, depending on the pedal's purpose and circuit/programming, Amps react differently to the same pedals, and this is where the fun is, and almost any amp from 400-1500 USD, will do the exact same thing this amp is doing and more.
I've used pedals with UAD plugins, Kemper, tube Fender vintage SR, Mesa Boogie Mark V and others, and I could get everything to sound almost the same or totally different, it is just a matter of setup and preference, and the result; there is no such thing as a specialized pedal platform amp. it's not a coincidence that two of the most overpriced pedal makers, JHS and Wampler, have two overpriced "pedal platforms" each.
how is the tone king? as good as this? thank you
There are better and cheaper amps out there, no?
Dude your a pedal company. Were the hell is the effects loop?! This could been a perfect giging amp. Who wants to hear their delays, chorus and reverb breaking up going into the front of a 40 watt preamp cranked. Its gonna
BREAK UP. So were is the effects loop on this "perfect pedal platform"? Guess I'm getting a hot rod deluxe. Overprived and no reverb lol. Guess I'll just put my reverb pedal Into the front. Lmao.
Oh and you want how much for this amp?.... keep dreaming. You can buy a victory v40 for less
That thing is begging to be painted lol
Super pricey! No thanks
$2,600 and no effects loop on an amp specifically made for pedals??? NO!
@Joe Smith Easy. Because of the price.
Anyone explain why this amp without reverb, tremolo, channels cost around $2600,-? JHS bullshit.
Cut the Price in half and it's still too much DOE!
I love Josh Scott but $2600??? Shame shame.
“Loud is more expensive”?
"Sounds amazing with just a guitar and a cable!"
--> Shows two pedals turned on.
And not plugged in. Look again.
A joke, I played a few nothing so many other amps can’t do
We are not talking Dumble here,
Given the sound
(which is what I use, duh)
$500 I’d buy one for myself
I figured. Ill keep my Mark 4.
Insanely overpriced. I'll stick with my Fenders, Bogners, and Marshalls.
