EDDIE VAN HALEN'S Jóse Modded Marshall??? What If It HAD Happened 🤔… One SIMPLE Mod!

What if Eddie Van Halen had actually let legendary amp tech José Arredondo mod his Marshall? This is the alternate EVH timeline that tone chasers have debated for decades! I've recreated the José clipping diode/transistor mod that could have taken Eddie's legendary Brown Sound to the next level!

In this video, I show you the schematic and step-by-step guide how I installed this incredibly SIMPLE mod that gives your Marshall Plexi that extra layer of saturation, compression, and sustain without losing the essential Plexi character. It's like having Eddie's amp in an alternate universe where he said to José: "Go ahead man! Hot rod my Marshall!"

I'll walk you through:
* The complete José clipping diode circuit
* How to install it inside your Marshall
* The difference between Zener diodes vs transistors
* The exact sound comparison of all three positions
* Why Eddie's actual Marshall remained stock (despite rumors)

This mod adds that extra gain stage and compression that gives you tighter palm mutes and smoother lead playing- making the Plexi one flexible MoFo!
