This completely changed how I thought about guitar amps. 0:00 - Intro 1:32 - Bias Type 2:22 - Rectifier Type 3:17 - Power Tube Type 4:27 - Preamp Tube Type 6:05 - Back To Basics 6:50 - What Is A Tone Stack? 7:13 - AskZac Vintage Amp Tests 9:02 - Fender, Vox, Marshall 10:42 - EQ/Distortion Order 12:01 - Distortion Type 13:42 - The Tacklebox 15:18 - Tacklebox Tests 16:21 - What Does All Of This Mean? 17:40 - Outro Jam My website is I'm @jimlill on instagram. ___ I spent a year on this. In October 2021 I did my first amp test for this video and I was shocked by the results, leading me to keep chasing the reasons an amp sounds like it does until October 2022 when I finally get to show everyone what I've been working on all this time. More work went into this than anything else I've ever done. I'm being totally honest when I say I'm just a performer, I don't know anything about circuits. This took me way outside my comfort zone, but I uncovered some truths that I find extremely interesting. Throughout the process I kept getting results that didn't match things I had read and heard not just from people on the internet, but from heroes of the industry. It made me realize that we're currently alive in the only time in all of human history where two things can be recorded, edited together, and played back to back, easily, at home. I'm not so sure that our heroes ever did that. I'm thankful that I have the opportunity to. The way I look at guitar amps has been changed forever. -Jim, 10/3/22
