«  Marshall JCM 2000 TSL100 - Makeover »

Published on 09/10/10 at 00:53
hello to you musician

The Marshall JCM 2000 TSL100 is a tube amp 100W
An input jack, assignable effects loop separately or jointly which opens the field of possibilities (Please do not use the effects loop! Please) is horrible on any amp. You can use to connect a pre-amp for example. No musician is so ... why some still to do?!
Upcoming speakers: 2X4, 1X4, 2X8, 1X8, 1x16 ohms (class)
An output emulated line out for direct recording (again, again ... stop messing around ... I will not add anything else.)

UTILIZATION

The setup is simple?
Yes

The manual is clear and sufficient?
No need. Anyway, he must rely on his ear and that's it.
Skunk Anansie guitarist to record their first album (many awards) with a guitar that cost him $ 70. No change. Yep. The amp is not the musician.

Do you get a good sound easy?
We get it sound good enough right quick, but ... must spend time on it to find the right sound. For a guitar sound is set with other musicians. Especially with the other guitarist (if any) and especially with the bass. Everything must be harmonious and logical.

SOUNDS

Will it fit your style of music?
Perfectly. I play post-hardcore or rock to clean arpeggios, the amp responds very hyper. The choice of guitar is very important. Not only the choice of guitar as the height of the microphones. I have a Fender Telecaster Deluxe, a Gibson SG Standard and an Ibanez ASX32 (with Seymour Duncan SH4) and soon a Fender Telecaster Standard.
For effects I use Boss and Line6.
The choice of speaker is very important ... very very very. But the best is surely not the most expensive. The better ear, his style, his music and his group.
I play with a 1960AV (Celestion V30) and it's just perfect. I have a 1960A is it makes a difference (especially on the roundness of sound)

OVERALL OPINION

For how long have you been using it?
7 years

Did you try many other models before getting this one?
Oh yes. Savage120 of ENGL, Mesa Boogie's, several Marshall, Fender few ...

What thing do you like most/least about it?
It's a pretty versatile amp (not the south either)

What is your opinion about the value for the price?
Right price

Knowing what you know now, would you make the same choice? ...
Oh yes.

! VERY IMPORTANT!
I tried 3 other JCM2000 TSL100 store (different stores) and it was really shit. So do not insult those who spit on this amp. I understand them.
My singer / guitarist working in a music store and we had a giggle when I tested one of their JCM2000 right after mine. Same in another store ... and the same again in another store. RIDICULOUS.
We must think about changing the lights too. If you think that is expensive and you'll end up spitting on the amp, do not cross the pitch then.
Without oil, the engine of the car died! There is none.
I had to change the PSU a few months ago. Due to cuts in current hardcore room my head suffered. And I'm rewarding :-) by changing the PSU I won round and sound sensitivity of the amp. Which makes sense after all. Kerry King, Slash, etc. have changed amps. If you believe that buying the signing of this or that you will have the same ... there is already affected, sensitivity, experience and the relationship between the musician and his instrument but also changes.
