My gigging amp of choice is a Marshall jvm 410

Its a very versatile amp that isn't nearly as complex as it looks, its a 4 channel amp with 3 gain stages and 2 master volumes and its rip bing loud.
It mainly stays on channel od1 green and orange.

When i get chance i love to play my blackstar ht 5, this amp just owns tone wise, but being only 5 watts you are somewhat limited in where you can play it.
You can easily keep it louder than the drummer, but unless its mic'ed it just can't cut it.

 

 

 


 

Pedals.

Currently my pedals run to the following,

Boss od3 overdrive, it pretty much stays at home, the Jvm doesn't really need much overdriving.

 

A Rothwell Love Squeeze Compressor, it doesn't seem to colour your sound at all, but helps the squeelies.

Boss Ns 2 keeping the clicks and pops where they belong.

A Marshall Echo Head Delay, it has about 2 billion different settings, i just use one.

 

Tuning is taken care of by a boss tu3, it works great in the bright sunlight.

Because we have a PA in our rehearsal room i've taken to just using my Pod Xt Live, great tones and its so much easier than lugging an amp around.
I've had it for ages and the buttons are pretty shafted on it now, I should get it serviced really.
