Members jw3092 Posted April 19, 2009 Members Share Posted April 19, 2009 i've been seeing alot of talk on here lately about the xxx and i've never heard one. i was wondering what bands use them so i could get a general idea about their range of tones. i hear they are very versatile amps and can get good and heavy.

Members jw3092 Posted April 19, 2009 Author Members Share Posted April 19, 2009 btw i've played a jsx and know it was based on the xxx or and upgraded model, just wondering if it was anything like the jsx? i personally think the jsx is a little thin sounding for rhythm playing ( i know it's satch's amp and he plays lead.).

Members Zacman0126 Posted April 19, 2009 Members Share Posted April 19, 2009 I own one and yes they can get quite heavy, makes my baritone's sound awesome. {censored}load of gain in them. I have also heard that the JSX is based off the Triple XXX, but has certain upgraded aspects that I don't recall at this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members guitar_dude45 Posted April 19, 2009 Members Share Posted April 19, 2009 personally.....i don't like the way exodus' amps sound..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members BeëlzeM Posted April 19, 2009 Members Share Posted April 19, 2009 I kinda do. It has it's own sound to it, quite compressed, but good sounding nonetheless. They're now using Randalls though, and the last time I've seen Exodus live their tone was {censored}ing killer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members guitar_dude45 Posted April 19, 2009 Members Share Posted April 19, 2009 yeah.....their tone is kinda scooped and razor sharp....i'm not into that kind of tone I had a small xxx combo once.....it sounded good....but had this razor sharp attack i couldn't tame.....there was no space for a full, warm, huge sound.

Members DrakkarTyrannis Posted April 19, 2009 Members Share Posted April 19, 2009 Suffocation's last cd was XXX And the JSX is a XXX with a different mid voicing, lowered gain, and more features to sculpt the tone more. Inside and out they are very similar amps. I think it's true what others have said about the JSX being a more "refined" XXX. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
