    Marshall YJM100: An Yngwie signature Marshall?? Seriously!!

    Coming to NAMM

    http://www.namm.org/files/presskits/...llNAMM2011.pdf


    Malmsteen has been a Marshall devotee from the get-go so this collaboration comes as no surprise to his countless fans. “I can't say enough about my love for the sound, feel and look of the wall of Marshall's. Since I was 10 years old, I’ve insisted on having them behind me at all times,” the guitarist reveals. “I must have had every amp company in the world ask me to endorse them, over the years. To finally have my own signature Marshall is an honor and this amp is truly a master piece!”
    Based on the power and tone of the “Holy Grail” 1959 Plexi head, the YJM100 offers the ultimate Neo-Classical amp with the following cutting edge features:

    1. Footswitchable* Boost with controls for Volume and Gain on the rear panel.
    2. Footswitchable* Noise Gate with rear panel Threshold control.
    3. Footswitchable* studio quality Digital Reverb with rear panel Level control.
    4. Footswitchable* Series FX Loop
    5. Half power switch which takes the output power from 100W to 50W when engaged.
    6. Built-in, infinitely variable Attenuator control which can take the output stage from 100% to 0.01% and anywhere in-between, while retaining the all-important tone and feel of the all-valve power section. This means the output power can be reduced to a staggering low of 0.05 Watts when in 50W power mode.
    7. Valve Failure Circuitry: meaning that if one of the output valves develops a fault, a visual indicator on the rear of the amplifier shows which one is working incorrectly. This “roadie friendly feature” will save valuable time getting the amplifier back up and running again, should a valve failure occur.
    8. Self-biasing circuitry to ensure proper power valve operation each time valves are changed.

    Sounds like it's the best sig model yet. Any idea on street price?

    The AFD100 was about $1999 street, so I bet this will be about the same.

    Yngwie is a great guitar player and a lousy song writer and producer. He needs a good producer to work with and some outside song writers. I bet with the right people he could do some amazing stuff.

    It sounds like an easy maintenance basic Marshall with some nice features. I wonder how the autobiasing works? Typically in amps without a variable bias they just have a fixed resistor value. The old Marshall sound comes from the power section and how the amp is biased has a lot to do with the sound. I got away with this for years. I used to put a matched set of tubes in and then plug a speaker and guitar into the amp and play it. I would turn the bias knob down until is sounded cold and crappy and then slowly turn it up until it started to sound good. Then I would check the tubes to make sure none of the plates were glowing red. I never had any problems. Now I run a sine wave generator on the input, and hook a scope to the speaker and look at the wave and adjust it to where there is no crossover distortion and then play and tweak until is sounds good. Marshalls sound best with a little tad of crossover distortion.

    It does...

    First of all, Yngwie sings on some of the songs...that sucks...

    The other vocalist is Ripper Owens, although Ripper says he has no knowledge of a new Yngwie album...

    So what this is, is something Yngwie made on his own with some Ripper demos thrown in...

    There is a good instrumental or two, but the overall effort is MUCH worse that any of Yngwie's last nine releases...

    I followed the autobiasing for a bit on the Slash model, the amp designer Santiago says it can use any tubes. EL34, 6L6, KT77, etc etc. It brings up the current to where it needs to be and plug and play.

    That's pretty cool. EL34s and 6L6s have a different pin configurations so you have to resolder some tube socket connections to switch between tube types. They must have an auto switching setup and then an servo pot that adjusts for the plate voltage flow. With modern electronics all this could be done but I've never heard of anyone doing it yet. You basically have a simple computer some sensors and auto adjustments.

    there is a trimmer on the back that allows you to choose your bias current between 20mA and 50mA per tube.

    The autobias is not biasing the amp continuously, it biases it whenever the user wants and otherwise behaves exactly as having trim pots in the amp, the difference being that you won't need any tools to bias the amp.

    It can be biased everytime you play and you can mix tube types without any problems.

    Install the tubes, select the biasing current with the trimpot on the back (for example 35mA for EL34s) and then hold the FX switch while powering on. Wait approx 3 min and you are ready to go

    any octal power tubes apart from 6V6 can be installed safely. You can even mix tube types, for example 2xEL34 with 2xKT88.

    From Woody Tone:

    http://www.woodytone.com/2011/01/11/...lt-in-effects/

    Whether Yngwie Malmsteen’s playing is your cup ‘o tea or not, one thing can’t be argued: his tone is woody, always has been. A boosted Strat into cranked 50w metal-panel Marshall Mark II heads – schweet!

    So when I was tipped to the fact that Yngwie has a new signature Marshall head coming out (thanks Jon!), I assumed it would be a replica of the aforementioned head.

    Nope.

    It’s a replica (in some way) of a 100w Super Lead…with a Joe Satriani-esque built-in noise gate, as well as boost and reverb, and a built-in attenuator. Okay, not all effects, but WTF?!

    Of course all that added-in stuff doesn’t automatically mean “bad” – and with Yngwie’s ears the head no doubt sounds good – but it sure as heck is surprising.

    Here’s more on the head, from the Marshall press release:

    Based on the power and tone of the “Holy Grail” 1959 Plexi head, the YJM100 offers the ultimate Neo-Classical amp [eye-roll] with the following cutting edge features:

    1. Footswitchable* Boost with controls for Volume and Gain on the rear panel.

    2. Footswitchable* Noise Gate with rear panel Threshold control.

    3. Footswitchable* studio quality Digital Reverb with rear panel Level control.

    4. Footswitchable* Series FX Loop.

    * A four-way Footcontroller comes supplied with the YJM100, facilitating switching of Booster, Gate, Reverb and FX Loop features. This Footcontroller has been designed using Marshall Amplification’s patented STOMPWARE Technology, allowing the user to connect it to the amp using a standard 1/4″ guitar cable.

    5. Half power switch which takes the output power from 100W to 50W when engaged.

    6. Built-in, infinitely variable Attenuator control, which can take the output stage from 100% to 0.01% and anywhere inbetween, while retaining the all-important tone and feel of the all-valve power section. This means the output power can be reduced to a staggering low of 0.05 Watts when in 50W power mode. [And I am left to wonder of this is why there's a half-power switch – so someone can play their 0.05-watt Marshall?!]

    7. Valve Failure Circuitry: meaning that if one of the output valves develops a fault, a visual indicator on the rear of the amplifier shows which one is working incorrectly. This “roadie friendly feature” will save valuable time getting the amplifier back up and running again, should a valve failure occur. [But don't try this at home, kids!]

    8. Self-biasing circuitry to ensure proper power valve operation each time valves are changed. [I like this!]


    What We Don’t Know

    Note the line above that says the amp is “based on the power and tone of the ‘Holy Grail’ 1959 Plexi head….” Based on. What does that mean?

    Does it mean that it’s the same basic circuitry as a Super Lead, with 4xEL34 power tubes? Or does it just use that circuitry as a starting point?

    Or does it mean that it uses Super Lead tone as a starting point?

    The tubes aren’t specified in the release, but if you stare long enough at the blurry back panel photograph they look like EL34s….
    Bottom Line

    > Will it sound good? Probably.

    > Does it make sense? Not sure.

    > Will it be expensive? The MSRP isn’t announced yet, might be announced at winter NAMM this month, but for sure it will be several $K.

    > What does Yngwie say about it? “Vintage look and sound, with incredible versatility and features. Remember you can’t buy just one!”

    “Vintage” and “versatility” don’t exactly go together in amps. But I am digging the idea of a built-in attenuator – if it sounds good.

    Question Marshall FAIL.

    OK, I'm going to post a NAMM 2011 thread tonight unless I'm too wiped or something ...interesting happens. At which point I will on Saturday. And I'm too wiped to post pics tonight either, but will get around to it. I DID want to share this however:

    I went to check these out today, (the YJM, the AFD, the JVM - we wanted to hear them ALL) and the Marshall exhibit was just for show. not a guitar or guitar cable to be had in the entire exhibit. The (albeit rather impressive) wall of Marshall amps of every model you can think of may have well as been dummies. It was like a wank-free zone or something. The only dead-silent booth in the whole Convention Center. Uh , wtf? And I mean, wasn't just little ol' me and a bunch of random dudes, there were names I wont/can't drop here with us, and NADA.


    FAIL.

    Will try again this afternoon, but so far not so good on checking this out. I DID check out the EVH 5150 III 50-watt mini-head, which is voiced differently from its' 100-watt counterpart, and was VERY pleasantly surprised...

  32. 2 users say thank you to jhale667 for this KICKASS post:

    Wow, that sounds interesting about the EVH mini head. I feel the gas coming on from NAMM already.

    Um so why did Marshall even have a god damn booth then? I fI want to see a stack of amps that don't work i'll go to a rock concert.

    Imagining if it's successful (I know you're buying 3 stacks, yes? ) a 50-watt version will likely follow...?

    Like I said, wish I could have checked IT out like I did the EVH 50-watt.

    Here is a cool video with the amps designer Santiago. He discusses the 1959 circuit and the boost is a YJM DOD overdrive





    Also, not in the video, but over at the Marshall forum Santiago posted this about Yngwie's live rig and recent album recorded with this amp:

    "He is using 2 YJM100s, they are on the second stack from the right. One is set to 50W and used as main amp and the other as 100W wired to a cabinet on the keyboard side as 2nd amp and ping-pong delay.

    He is not using any booster. The clean sounds on "dreaming" song are through the amps with a compressor and chorus.

    His last record was recorded using the 1st YJM prototype. "

    Here is a different video too of the amp in action. Volume is maxed on front panel, and controlled with the scaling on the back

    Wow!

    Nice sounding head...

    That might tempt me to sell my '73 Super lead to get one...

    I've gotten rid of some of my old stuff. The old stuff is nice but the new stuff has the old sound, is easier from a maintenance stand point and has some nice modern features like a line out and effects loop. I'm just not a collector, I just like to play the stuff. A lot of great new amps right now.

    I think the YJM is the best sounding, most well thought out, authentic sounding 100 watt marshall I've ever heard...at least on a youtube clip...
