You should also try setting all the tone controls at 12 o'clock for a darker jazz tone. It'll give you 
an essentially flat response, providing a balanced tone across the fret board for jazz chord

Turn to this Amp Model to conjure up tones of the coveted J
800, one of Marshall's most universally acclaimed modern 
amps. This updated version of the Plexi continued Marshall's 
heritage with added gain and edge for a new generation of rock 
guitarists. One of the biggest differences here is that the tone 
controls are located after the preamp tubes. 
 
Incidentally, some versions of JCM 800's get their distortion by 
clipping a diode. The amp we modeled uses a tube for 
distortion. 
The JCM 800 is, of course, the metal sound Marshall made 
famous. And although not many people play Marshalls clean, it 
is a great tone, so you should also be sure to check out this model with a low Drive setting. Of 
course, you can always pump up the drive and rage...
