- Опубліковано 5 тра 2020
- Demo of a brutal Marshall Randy Rhoads Full Stack with a 1973 Gibson Les Paul Custom (Randy had a 1974 Custom). The Stack, which is a recreation of the stack Randy used with Ozzy Osbourne in the early 1980s, features two Marshall 1960 Lead cabs with G12T-75 Celestions (Randy Used Altec Lansing 417-8H in his 1960 cabs).
The cascaded channel, which is usually on the second input jack is moved to the first input jack on this amp.
Demo of an Altec Lansing 417-8C
• Altec Lansing Vs JBL G...
I used to own one of these....the 2nd channel is modded like Randy’s was....it cascades the preamp...the first channel is stock....Great amp...Wish I still had mine..
You aren’t kidding. It’s worth a fortune.
What did you do with your Randy Rhoads stack?
This amp comes alive with Input I SECOND channel (top right) 🎸 The left channel is a standard 1959. The right channel has cascaded gain stages with the top Input full-on (Randy's "Ozzy" tone), the bottom right is -6db for hot pickups. The left channel Input I volume becomes Gain and the right channel Input II volume is the Master Volume.
I used to have a 1979 100watt Marshall Master Volume. This was sold to the guitarist in our band as I had just bought a new 'cleaner sounding' Hiwatt clone (I played bass). Seeing this makes me realise I should have kept that old marshall!
So you’ve waited 10 years to watch UA-cam?
This modern version amp is to be retired now cause it’s 10 years old already.
Marshall built this 2010 amp cause the old amps have all perished.
After 7 years Marshall sell off the spare parts for the amps.
Every 10 years you all line up at Marshall’s door and you ask for a new amp to be made for you. You don’t waste your time on broken stuff.
I saw Randy with Ozzie on their first tour together. This was at a small outdoor amphitheater/shed. The audience was mostly local musicians and Sabbath fans.
What a freaking GREAT show ! We all knew we we're seeing something very special. The rest is history, including all the other shows I saw Ozzie and Randy play at.
I also saw SRV at the same shed before he became famous. He was still working on his signature tone at the time.
Good Times..😂
Realise these people today are antisocial or robots. If you wanted to communicate with people you’d have gone to disco music Shows back in the day.
I would have loved to heard the amp with a Distortion+
No you don’t.
Gibson has superseded that method by now.
Where have you been? Out in the jungle?
There’s 8 different MXR distortion + pedals by now. Multiple 10 band EQ pedals, etc...
The bridge pickup sends 2 notes each time randy played 1.
The volume pedal added 3 notes for each note it gets from the pickup.
The wah pedal adds 3 notes for each note it gets from the volume pedal.
So, at this point, randy played 1 note, the distortion + pedal gets 18 notes.
The distortion + pedal adds 3times more notes to those 18.
18x3 = ....
@@dreyn7780 ..... infinite Randy......?
@@dreyn7780 wtf are you talking about? The original Dist + still is the best...period. Just because we have a gazillion different variations of distortion and OD these days doesn't mitigate the beauty of the originals. Also, the D+ is what RANDY USED so yeah, it would be cool to hear it with this amp.
The marshal forum is just another person who's getting a paycheck.
Don't let tiny people who get a paycheck ruin you're life.
You'd have to spend your life telling people there was somebody and did something.
Oh,no. You too.
Gibson built the hIFi loFi pickup.
You don't need the pedals anymore.
They know what they're doing.
They've made a small fortune out of it.
The MXR Distortion + was a key factor to Randy's tone so without it you can't really get close to Randy's actual sound. You need to plug into the top input of the 2nd channel also to get the cascaded channel effect.
Those amps emphasize all the frequencies that cause hearing damage, but they sound great doing it!
Hahaha! Yeah the sound signals DANGER!!
Feel free to elaborate, “Thomas”
The loudest amp I ever played was a 1977 2203 ... even on just 3-3.5 that amp was BRUTALLY LOUD. I tried one out at a Guitar Center in the enclosed amp room. My ears rang for 3 days... definitely did some hearing damage that day.
EVH product kills the volume problem. He knows more than you and johan put together.
@@dreyn7780 I seriously doubt that
I'm a huge fan of Randy Rhoads. Thanks for the video, great tone and playing. The richness of full chords when you played them was over the top powerful, I loved that
Thanks Robert, glad to hear that!
I am really enjoying the tone here. Its even making the video wobbly because its so good
What I need in my life is a ringtone of Johan saying "Hi. Let's go."
This is what the holy grail of full stacks are. St. Randy we love you bro. My goal in life my friend
Ahhhh, just what I needed after a long day. Thanks, Johan!
Glad to hear it, Wes! Cheers!
@@JohanSegeborn Thanks for your videos! They give me something to look forward to during COVID quarantine.
Monster sounds! Simon was tearing it up. Neat to see him with the Les Paul, as he's often playing the Strat.
Thanks man!
I've literally been waiting for you to do this video the whole time I've been watching your channel Johan! Very much appreciated, what an amp! I think I speak on behalf of thousands of RR die-hards that if you could do a video recreating his signal chain in part or in full it would be beyond awesome!
Thanks Callum! If I come across a 4x12 of Altecs I will!
MXR Distortion Plus as well ye?
Me too
Agreed
And set the amp EQ to Randy's settings according to the amps manual medias.audiofanzine.com/files/1959rr-manual-479535.pdf
Pres 5, Bass 2 , Mids 5.5, Treble 6.5, Volume 1 6, Volume 2 6.5.
I wonder if it's a mighty distorted sound or perhaps just a slightly saturated crunch sound for the mxr distortion & eq's to take it into the hairy distortion.
And through the C-75's one has to imagine the Altecs being a fair bit cleaner. Rock on Johan
Ich glaube, Randy hätte an diesem Stack wirklich seine Freude gehabt. Einfach ein sehr guter Rock Sound! Coole Gitarrenarbeit von euch beiden. Wie immer ein super Video, Johan. Bleibt gesund.:-)
Danke Klaus! Du auch!
What a gain monster, lovely hot-rodded Marshall tone! Also cool white tolex JCM 800 combo sitting next to the stack.
Yeah the 4104 is a killer too
It’s not a gain monster.
Dreyn 77 ok
This makes me miss the days when I regularly played a rig that was taller than me (I'm 6'2"). Practice & gigs. The apex was 3 4-12's + a 1-15, and a 400+ watt rack system. My ears are still ringing over 20 years later & I don't miss the HEAVY Lifting involved to move that mountain of gear, but the Sound/Feel was worth the effort. The other guys in the band had sizeable rigs too.
The ringing is just the blood circulating in your head.
Whaooo ! What amazing sound !! Great Marshall amp ! I love
Thanks man, glad to hear it!
I love so much your videos, your job is very cool 😁 !
You can see the power of a full stack and 100 watt Marshall.
. Love it Thanks
Thanks Darryl!
OH MAN! I haven't heard the sound yet but I know 11 minutes isn't enough!!
Thanks Sir that was awesome info 🤘🏽
Thanks, glad to hear it!
Perfect tone, that slightly modded Marshall tone is the one that instantly comes to (my) mind when I think Marshall. Sounds like stock JMP plus Solodallas boost with a bit more sizzle in order to transcend AC/DC territory. And great demonstration by the two of you.
Thanks David, glad to hear that!
Johan Segeborn You haven’t demoed the Marshall YJM on your channel as of yet, right? Would be really interesting in comparison with this one. Cheers and keep up the good work!
@@davidp.4880 No it wouldn’t.
Go take a holiday or something.
YJM has nothing to do with this old amp of 2000. Which is past its use by date already.
You people are SO unreasonable!
@@dreyn7780 Gosh you must hate this amp... I have this amp and it might be older but never outdated. It is actually the youngest amp i own....

Someone has already decided on a 10 year limit to all electrical products. You go ARGUE with the judge.
Looks great, sounds great ...its just great ...cool tones
Thanks Gerry!
Great sounding amps, has more of a vintage sound than I remember when I saw Randy perform but that can be due to the Distortion plus pedal, you guys always do great demos, stay safe, Thanks Johan!
Thanks Mark! Be well. Cheers
You failed to communicate cause you’ve chosen to speak to antisocial humans.
Go try church! They’re MORE out of date than electric guitarists.
What a pleasant surprise. If these didn’t cost so much I’d already have one! One of my favorite players covered by one of my favorite players! (Simon is sick too :)
Thanks Johnny, Cheers!
Cost so much?
They’re all past retirement age in 2020. Dude, forget about them.
Seriously, move on in life.
The family got robbed by their audience and you’ll never see them authorise more products for you.
@Thomas Jefferson there’s no 88’s.
Marshall built THEIR AMP for people to buy.
L34 valves and celestion speakers are their choice for their 2005 era sound from the RR amp.
Those 2005 days are OVER and long gone now in 2020.
All normal people expect lots of components to FAIL due to their age and it’s beyond legal requirements for them to keep operating safely and within specks.
Robbing the family means we’ll NEVER get any more RR products ever again.
Dreyn 77 I don’t know what you mean. But I do know these amps are going for over 3 grand :)
My friend Marc McElwee use to work on his guitar in the very early 70’s. This was at Killeen Music in Burbank. Marc went onto co-found Travis Bean Guitars.. as Marc use to put it..” he’d come in holding a guitar with one hand and his diaper(nappy) in the other...lol.
7:45 - God I love it every time Simon starts playing some AC/DC riff
Yeah he has that drive in his playing
Petition for more AC/DC ;)
So much power it interfering with the camera , now thats power and your neabers well love you for it , that's why i have double stacks Marshalls in my house .
The secret to Randy’s tone isn’t the amp, guitar, or Distortion +, it’s the Altec 417-8H speakers he used. Cannot get remotely close without them.
Actually you can
@@BluTheHonky ok, you can get “remotely close” but you can’t “nail” the tone.
Sounds great but not right.
Lottsa Bite! Well done and thanks for sharing brothers! Be Well All!
Thanks brother! Stay safe!
@@JohanSegeborn lots of your commenters are getting reported to the authorities for hate speech and bullying
sounds great as always
Thanks, glad to hear that!
Oh heII Simon went Old School Glitter Rock and Roll at 3:35....Great lick Simon! and the 1960A under the 800!!! Yeah Iknow it was a year ago but it just cant be unseen Rock Steady
Ahhhh he used KT-88.... no wonder he had gain. Good info!
Fantastic video guys! Both of your decidedly different playing styles really showed what this amp is capable of. Time warp back to 80's bliss complete! God bless and rock on 🎸😎👍
Thanks J! Stay safe!
I couldn't afford this Marshall amp so I bought a used Bugera 1960 Infinium. I'm happy that it sounds a lot like the 1959RR.
We’ll do the Infinum here soon Robert! Cheers
Wow!! This is going to be SICK!!!!🤘🤘
I loved the stack! Cheers
FOOLLEE!
This is the tone of a legend. Amazing amp....Randy is one of my main influences . If someone interesed you can hear it on _desde el interior_ Kapitan Tabernikola song, Spanish Rock band thanks
No. Not true.
I bet you don't even own a 1970's LP playing machine.
That whole era peaked much later than you think.
Randy was long gone. The audience had moved on and some old players got together and played Rock Bottom once again, but even they didn't realize what they had done.
At that point Schenker and Roth had taken over the band and they were just amusing themselves.
They couldn't go any higher than that.
This amp is a rock n roll beast. One of my favourites Marshall amps, for sure.
Thanks for the vídeo!!!
Thanks Sérgio!
You have NO CLUE what it’s doing and that it’s only making a 2010 era sound.
It can’t possibly make ANY OLD ERA sound.
This vid is making the johan sound IF he had bought the guitar and amp in 2010.
You got the image of Randy’s amp before he put the tape on it.
You DON’T GET ANY randy rhoads sound.
Let’s remind you that Gibson pickups of the 1970’s can be totally unique cause they built them wrong sometimes.
Wow this amp sounds killer, it's got that nice bright , crispy crunch. Great video as usual, I love your channel Johan.
Thanks Tony, I’m really glad to hear that!
No one has bought it in 10 years.
Antisocial git!
Johan awesome as usual
Simon you and that Les Paul and amp made for each other 🤘
Thanks Robert! Cheers! 🤘
Hi, Johan! I wanted to ask - have you ever tested laney LA30BL witch is being advertised as a smaller version of LA100BL. And what is overall your opinion on Laney amps?
Hi! I haven’t tested that one yet but I love the old Supergroups
That amp has cascaded channels, meaning Channels II and I are connected in series (in that order). You have to connect guitar to the Channel II input to use the gain available through both channels. Channel I input only goes through that channel.
We’ll make another clip where compare the channels.
@@JohanSegeborn Alright 👍
@@JohanSegeborn 1 hour video, please! 😂😂
The cascaded channel was actually moved to the first input on this amp for some reason.
@@JohanSegeborn Okay, I see.
Damn son you get some great amps .😩😩😩
Any chance you wanna plug into the actual channel Randy used or nah?
Actually he just used the stock bright channel, he didn’t like it cascaded, even though the normal high input channel was cascaded.
Hi, Johan!
That was a nice surprise! I was very impressed with the amp! Thank you for your time and rock forever ❤️!!!
See you
Z.
Thanks Zigfrid! See you!
Johan, need your input given your vast 4-holler experience. I have a 1959RR- my only SLP amp. Forget Ch2 with the cascade gain.
My question is whether CH 1 is hotter than a typical SLP? Given the volume taper, mine has very little headroom (0-2 being clean, 4-6 being stadium rock and 7-10 making no real difference in volume). I have to imagine SLPs have a lot more range on the knob, thus more headroom. But I am also thinking these have WAY more gain on tap exclusive of ch 2.
The reason why I’m asking is I tried a Tonebender 2 and have nothing but out of control wool until i back the volume to 2 or below... regardless of attack setting on the fuzz. My 2203 JMP OTOH handles the full range of the tonebender on all settings on the lo input and surprisingly sounds much better than the RR through the TB.
Tons of bite and crunch! Loved this demo Johan!
Thanks Fabrizio!
OMG, what a powerful beast! Great work there, guys. Glad that Johan had his turn, too :-)
We have products that turn the power down to a complete whimper. Dumbass.
You guys did the demo on the standard marshall sound input. The randy sound is the inputs on the right and the upper is high gain. So the demo should have included the upper right input for the randy sound.
Johan I have this amp. How did you get it to break up? I can not get it to give almost any distortion without a pedal?
Crank it🤘🏻👍🏻
Did I miss something, the cascaded mod in this amp is in the top right input jack. I didn't see you have it plugged in there once.
I read that Randy got the cascade mod done, but then never used it, opting instead to run the distortion + along with an MXR 10 band eq and the stereo chorus into regular channel
Interesting, do you have a link to that?
This and my 2061x are the most favorite amps i have... Than why do i use my the twin so much 😂🤣😂🤣😂
Wish i could play it like that. The white tolex makes it a piece of art in my livingroom 🤘🏻
Yeah it’s a great work of art in it self :-)
Being older than 10 years, legally it’s to be retired.
@@dreyn7780 go play with your line6 spider 😂🕷️
The wobbly visual must have been to watch Randy from Ozzy's perspective.
Hahaha! 🤣
Mindbending vision
You’re adding to the misery of people’s lives.
You’re despicable.
What is the purpose of the name you’ve chosen to use? Clearly you’re antisocial and out to attack the west and bring it down. Maybe you want to destroy the west or rob the people of the west. Just like jerry sinefeld does each day.
Which land are you working for Mr Land? Expose who you are!
Glad you showed and played the amp, but I am learning that I really like the much older and the newer metal amps more than this one. The older Plexi sounds better to me and the new Soldano SLO 100 sounds better to me, but this stack looks cooler!
It’d a beauty indeed
Maybe in your ears but for me.. I had 1959 Plexi reissue that sounded great, but both my RR59’s sound way better in every way , obviously your not a true Marshall fan . Marshall’s we’re the originals not a wannabe amp 🎸
@@brianbeaven698 well I have a 1958 Fender Bassman and really like it’s tone. You probably already know that Marshall used the early Bassman for inspiration- yeah Jim went with bigger speakers but the DNA is there. I have 4 Marshall’s, all are very different. Not that I am not a big fan of Marshall, but as you expand your musical pallet you grow to see the place for a Vox AC 30 and a 12 string Rick, you learn to enjoy a vintage Les Paul going through a cranked Marshall blues breaker. Each have a spot for me.
Hi Johan, I've been a huge fan of your videos but I really need your help. If I send you a video explaining my situation would you be able to help me determine what ohm setting to run my Marshall Bluesbreakers into my cabs?
It would be easier for me to send you a video since I don't know what the ohm is on my cabs. Appreciate it brother
Get an Ohm-meter. Backplate off, no speaker cable connected, measure at cabinet jack-connector, one probe to one solder joint other probe to other solder joint.
Can't wait!
Glad to hear that :-)
Johan, were you guys plugged into the left upper input the whole time? If so, that's just a stock SL. Did you know the top right input is the custom modded input, using both halves of V1 cascaded? Looks like you where in the "stock" input the whole time??? Rock on!!!
Powerful amp! Really rocks! Thanks for sharing dear friend! Cheers!
Thanks my friend, Cheers!
Wow, monster sound 🤯
Thanks Gabriel!
Sounds Awesome Johan!!! Randy was the greatest!!!! The white tolex just looks so cool too!!
Thanks, glad you like it!
Sounds like johan if he wasn’t cheap and thrifty in 2010. Sounds nothing like randy and Randy’s amp was black from the tape.
@@dreyn7780 Mouth-breather
Great amp, I play Marshall’s, I have most of my life. I play through a full JCM-900 now. Really wish you’d have had a player that did some signature Randy stuff, less high gain feedback and some technical playing to really showcase this amp for the sounds it can really achieve. I think these guys, bless this hearts, were playing for themselves and not to showcase the actual thump of this amp.
Well, maybe people are refusing to play for you in 2020 and have been for 20 years already.
Maybe they saw what you did to cobain and napster and thought "nup, not playing for them, ever"!
This made my day!!
Cheers Sergio!
How did you get such a distorted tone?
A distortion+ does the opposite of a tube screamer, MXR thickens the sound and add top end sparkle and ever so slightly makes it sound like a fuzz pedal... integral for RR tone.
For anyone who plays at bedroom volume level, yes
Is that a real 73 lp with.490s or the remake with bbs? That my have had a 500 in it? Either way it's got that snoty sound I love. It sounds like my bb 1 and 2
That’s an original 73 with patent number/T-tops
@@JohanSegeborn I had a 73 standard ,wasn't my favorite guitar. In fact when I got my 2014 traditional I sold the 73. I only have nine guitar hangers. Haha but the t tops sound great
Great video guys. Love the sound. I'm surprised to air coming from that stack didn't blow over the acoustics on display. LOL
Hahaha! ;-) Cheers
Do I want to know the price tag on these?
BEAUTIFUL
Thanks Nicholas!
This head has something similar to the one wire cascade mod people do/did to four input Marshall’s
Thomas Jefferson the 1959RR, seems to work well since the bright input stage has the smaller cathode bypass and plays well with the rest of the signal chain when cranking. Best one wire mod to do and gets close to the Jose/Fortin territory without sacrificing the ability to use the stock bright input
I never really got into Ozzy, but I could listen some more of that amp/guitar pairing. And I LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE the white marshall look. Dang. I want one.
You’re not social. You failed to communicate. This is not some hip trendy item.
How can they call Randy Rhoads "Full Stack" with Altec 417-8H speakers in them?
Finally!
Sounds killer 😳
Thanks Kjetil!
I have 2 matching cream Anniversary cabinets w black grill cloth When I got them they were black and to my pleasant surprise they were cream underneath Took a lot of elbow grease to get them right Not sure which 800 head would have came with them
fuckin ay! loved this even tho this is not really my thing. after seeing Pete Thorn's video about steve vai's original modded marshalls i have reassessed what i think about that era of rock. being of that generation i regarded it a leprosy as i was a big blues and jimmie vaughan fan and srv when his records became available. but wow this stuff rocks.
Thanks Johan for this amazing video of a reissue of a legendary amp! This amp is bright but compared to how RR ran it it’s dark!
Thanks Don! Yeah he had a really cutting tone ;-)
It’s a 2010 sound from all these amps. They warned YOU ALL at the start in 2010.
A decade later, guitarists are STILL thinking this is going to make RRs old soundzzzz.
You know when the MARSHALL is cranked by watching the camera shaking !!😛🤘
Cheers Frank! ;-)
I’m confused it says jmp on the face plate? I have a 78 or 79 jmp, does that mean it’s a 1959 as well?
Most amps (1959, 1992, 1987, 2203...) had JMP on the faceplate between 1967 and 1980.
Johan Segeborn thanks that explains a lot!
Maybe you could do a video on the different faceplate designations?
Randy used Kt88 tubes? I thought is was El34’s?
Matt Guerrero Me too
Wish these things didn’t skyrocket in price, would love to have one but over $5,000 is a little steep 😬
It would be interesting to hear this with the Altecs.
I think the amp is voiced for 75s so it may sound harsh with Altecs
@@JohanSegeborn
Yes… I’ve had Altec’s , they are very bright sounding speaker’s.
I prefer the Celestion’s myself.
I’ve got two of the RR59 heads and different Marshall cabs.

It’s NOT an 800.
Not even close!
It’s an ALL NEW sound for 2005 built as a tribute to 1980. It’s very different to any 1980 era sound.
In the same way an MG mini from 2005 is different to an MG mini from 1960’s.
Marshall is going out of business cause you guys are SO lowly educated.
Why don’t you call these ‘T’ tops by their REAL NAME?
They’re custom made pickups for the custom buyer of Gibson.
Custom pickups that came in the custom model guitar an NO OTHER MODEL OF GIBSON GUITARS.
Didn't RAndy use Altec speakers?
@johan segeborn you should try to get Randy’s tone with the right pedals and the right cab loaded with altecs and strings to see if you could get his tone and it would make a great video
Sounds fucking great!
Didn’t expect that much top end ghosting. Especially evident when on the neck pickup. Great tone nonetheless.
Thanks!
Almost bought that amp once ... plugged it in but couldn't go further than on loudest plexi if ever heard. The whole store trembled
Why did you not play Randy Rhoads?
Awesome! I thought the second channel is actually the "cascaded" channel giving it more gain when plugged into the top right input while the first channel is more of a stock JMP. If you and Simon could create another video of this stack demoing the second channel plugged into the top right input that would be awesome! Definitely not your average 100 watt superlead!
Thanks! The cascaded channel was actually moved to the first input on this one for some reason.

It doesn’t matter what RR used cause Marshall screwed you before you bought this amp 10 years ago.

Nice amp
All US imported Marshall amplifiers used GE 6550A tubes from 1974 onwards...

😂😂😂
@@js6729 ;oP
It’s a Super Lead with cascaded inputs (I have the official schematic). It’s very brutal and the volume knobs are very sensitive. It would really need a Master volume. This amp, to me, sounds classic Marshall-sound and I know that the MXR Dist+ is a very important ingredient for getting the Randy-sound. The speakers are also important. In this clip one can really hear the G12T-75s. Randy used EL34s.
Side note: Blackmore’s amp also had cascaded inputs.
We actually declare that in the video description, Daniel. Do you have a reference to the EL34s that you can share?
Johan Segeborn yes you are absolutely right Johan, I heard you did. I just wanted to share what I know. :) Did you try the amp with your Altec Lansing? Also Randy used a Variac set to 90-92 VAC. I will check the sources. Nice clip and great playing as always! 😊🙏
Johan Segeborn but I’ve also read an interview featuring Randy’s guitar technician.
If you have a link, maybe you can share it?
Johan Segeborn this is from Max Norman, the producer of the records. Since Max is a Facebook-friend of mine I will ask him about the EL34s: NORMAN Yes, and it was a pretty advanced rig for the time, I suppose. He’d read somewhere about using the Variac [a variable power supply that can lower supply voltages and cause power tubes to saturate at lower levels]. He had a 100-watt Marshall amp, and we dropped the voltage down to 90 or 92 volts. That smokes up the distortion, gives it a creamier edge. And of course a lot of the effects came from his pedal board, the “chip pan.” [Ozzy gave this name to the setup because it created so much hiss and noise that it sounded like French fries-which the British call “chips” - sizzling in a pan. ]
