- After listening back to the audio from this video I have to say that the Jubilee was my favourite for the clean tone but the MG did it for me on the Overdrive and full distortion sounds. Equally followed by the CR120s full distortion which was warm, full and like a big hug of Orangey gainey goodness.
The Jubilees overdrive and distortion was nice but didn't quite have the tone I wanted.
Let me know which one you preferred and why in the comment section below. : )
I honestly believe your playing reached a new high, a new level, call it what you will. Its been a pleasure to hear you play, but this...this is new..more inspired than ever i believe. the more i hear you explain that at present things are a bit hard and complex, the more i feel that it shows in your playing. You're loved, you belong, and what you do makes us better. Thank you.
Thank you very much. : )
i know it's kind of off topic but does anyone know of a good place to watch new tv shows online ?
@Davion Fabian ehh I use flixportal. you can find it on google:D -danny
@Danny Bishop thanks, signed up and it seems like a nice service :) I really appreciate it!!
@Davion Fabian Glad I could help xD
Silver Jubilee all the way.
Why ?
Just listen to this fckn awesome amp. Wow !
Don't think I've ever watched a 12min guitar piece before and not got mightily bored. Transfixed throughout, thank you.
Thank you very much. : )
Marshall Jubilee for me, all three sounds just sounded more open to my ears.
when i hear intro jams like these i often think youre on par with john frusciante :)
He is ;)
Just as expressive as John, jimmy , Rory & Peter.
Thank you very much. : )
INTRO! THAT WAS WILD! Great stuff as always Dave. You make me want to reevaluate myself as a player and take it more seriously and want to achieve 5 percent of what you do.
Thank you very much. : )
I prefer the one that Dave Simpson is playing at any point in time :-).
This is the truth
Thank you very much. : )
Dave the intro jam!! How how how ?! Amazing, literally should be in rhcp paired with flea and Chad thered be interesting music by the chilis again.
Thank you very much. : )
The Jubilee hands down, why?
Because it’s the best amp Marshall ever made 👍
I am kicking myself for selling my original '87 Silver Jubilee when I thought I was done playing forever. Now its 25 years later, I am picking it back up. I really want the Jube again, but what not many comments mention is price. The Orange is $450 today at Sweetwater. The Jube reissue is $2000. Its hard to hear a quadruple difference. Esp when I don't earn money for playing.
Awe inspiring intro, I could listen to it again and again and again............................................... and again, beautiful!
First off that intro Jam was mind boggling stellar. Awesome! Now IMHO as you asked this , to my ears...lol... this is what I heard off an iPad....
Clean was the Jubilee as it was darker and not as bright
OD was the Jubilee as it was clear and well defined
Distortion was the MG as it sounded authentic to the riff that was played like it belonged..
Thank you very much. : )
The intro... THE INTRO
Thank you very much. : )
Clean=MG Crunch=Jubilee Gain=MG/Jubilee for me ,quite shocked i liked the MG so much and that i wasn't to keen on the orange just sounded to muffled to me
Dave my boy, that intro was something else!! u should really be releasing some of this kind of music on Spotify and iTunes, I would love to hear an album of this style, sounds so epic and beautiful!!! Keep it up 💕🎸💕
Ignacio Mellado Riquelme ~ Check out Dave's releases on Bandcamp! Un saludo!
Thank you very much. : )
I liked MG and cr120 clean, Silver Jubilee overdriven, and both Marshalls dirty. Silver Jubilee sounded clearer while warm and nice overdriven
You made that thing weep right there... Perfection
DAMNN that intro is perfection! When I listen to it, it gives off the feeling of losing something/someone but new things are brought into life after losing.
Thank you very much. : )
i think the marshall jubliee sounded the best but the CR120 wasn't far behind
For the clean sound I preferred the Marshall mg just very clear and still had a lovely resonance. Overdrive I preferred the Marshall mg again although it was close for me between that and the silver jubilee. I preferred the MG because it seems to have really nice deeper notes and lots of bite. With distortion I go with the MG again it seem to be a bit deeper in the bass strings with lots of resonance. Love your passion and playing Dave you are brilliant.
Thank you very much. : )
Clean silver jubilee was THE sound
Jesus, Mary, Joseph and all his carpenter mates! Intro blew my mind dude! Pure class bro 👍
Thank you very much. : )
To my ears the MG and CR sound amazing... But that SJ absolutely f*****g sings, it sounds immense. It just sounded richer, warmer and more organic than the other 2. Taking nothing away from the others, as the CR is my current “I want” amp. That Jubilee is just incredible!
As pure as it gets ❤️💯❤️
MG Cleans, Silver Jubilee for dirt to my ear. :)
Interesting shootout. I thought the silver Jubilee had it all, nice string definition & lovely tone that complements that strat. 👍
To my ears, I really preferred the CR120, it seemed to have more dynamics to the sound, really enjoyed the entire video tho
You will be a recognized guitarist in this world. We trust you!
Thank you very much. : )
Picking up the guitar again after a long time away from it and am very happy to have discovered your channel! Great instruction and content - thanks dude🌞✌️
Thank you very much and so happy to hear you have picked up the guitar again. : )
Holy crap dave that was absolutely beautiful. I find the jubilee has more clarity the mg and cr120 are kind of muffled.
Thank you very much. : )
Jubilee was the best overall, had the most natural dynamics and cut and power. The biggest surprise was how good you make the MG sound, it actually held its own against the jubilee and sounded better than the orange
Well, er, that was another reasonably adequate intro jam. Damn it Dave, that was totally inspired!! Not many guitarists could do what you just did. In fact I’m struggling to think of any. You were making sounds with one hand, eight and a bit minutes in, that most couldn’t do using both.
Thank you very much. : )
For cleans, I prefer the mg because it's the cleanest, the others still have a bit of break up. For crunch I'd go for the silver jubilee. As for distortion, it's a close call between the silver jubilee and the mg. The orange sounded a bit too dark for me. All in all it's just a matter of taste of course. Btw, always tought you were Buckethead. The bucket in the back confirms my suspection ;-) Nice playing!! thanks
I'd say i like the clean tone of the CR120, the overdriven tone of the Jubilee and the full distortion of the MG or Jubilee the most
Goodevening Dave, i totaly agree with Austin Smith have Nice weekend to all of you !
Clean Jubilee Was best clean. MG was a bit boomy lower mids and lacked some definition. Orange was more balanced flatter EQ making it sound a bit thin/flat after the MG but more clarity. Jubilee had the full bodied lows and high definition with more punch which made it sound more alive with energy.
Crunch MG was a bit muffled sounding, kind of like with the clean to me, Again Orange had more definition and was quite a contrast, more balanced EQ not as tiring. I'm afraid I liked the Jubilee again overall, More like the Orange with more punch and definition, more precise and cutting (It would really stand out in a live gig setting).
High Gain the MG came forward more than before and started to shine while the Orange started to fall back and lose definition to me. Again the Jubilee stood out, it just has some energy and punch that the other two can't match.
I think the MG and Orange between them cover most bases at home where the Jubilee might be a handful, I don't know if the volume levels were supposed to be roughly the same but overall the Jubilee really came out loud full bodied and articulate with a lot more clarity and detail. It probably costs 6-10x the others which is a stretch for most people to dig out your pockets. Especially if like me your mostly a hobby bedroom player. Really was in a class of it's own though.
I prefer the Marshall SIlver Jubilee overall but the MG 100 has a nice thick warm complex clean tone I liked best.
Jubilee by a long shot for the overdrive and higher gain....sounds like rock n roll.
I think I am the only person who follows you who doesn't listen to or care too much for Frusciante...I just like your candor and skills. Its been one of my favorite channels on YT. All the amps were dialed in well, but I have to sway towards the Jubilee...thanks for posting them side by each Dave.
To each his own. Whatever does it for you is the way you should always go. Frusciante is an amazing textural player and that doesn't necessarily appeal to everyone. I am totally in the textural camp and love Frusciante and Johnny Greenwood and those types of players.
Your not the only one lol. I didn't even know who he was till I came to Dave's channel. Not a fan of Chili Peppers music. But I'm still here a few months after my first visit :) Dave's playing is the best if you want tasteful playing without super clean jazz or ultra gain metal and he always has interesting insights :)
@@antmax Yep Dave uses his ears more than the average player and appreciates the nuances of good guitartistry.
Thank you very much for watching. : )
Hi Dave! Don´t know whether you've already addressed this question but do you have any thoughts on the Silver Jubilee 2525H? (It´s the mini one). If so, do you think it´s possible to get John´s tone out of it? Thanks
You can get John out of one and the one i tried i loved. :)
Love the singing top-end of the fretboard stuff in the opening jam Dave. The Silver Jubilee sounded great to me, then the MG I think although the Orange had an interesting clean tone.
Thank you very much. : )
Hands down the jubilee. I also own one and love it.
Release that opening jam on Bandcamp or whatever... It was so nice to listen to! (Of course, I had to apologize to my guitars and amps after listening.....)
Absolute legend, so lucky to watch your content
Thank you very much. : )
Jubilee has such an aggressive and mean sounding overdrive and distortion. Clean I like the marshall
That intro there's not right many words to describe it but I'm gonna say fuckin brilliant
Thank you very much. : )
I think more than ever that you need to meet your Flea. There has to be some bass player out there for you. You are such a great player Dave. So happy to have stumbled upon your channel.
Thank you very much and I would Love that. : )
That was a guitar clinic right there at the beginning. Wow!
Thank you very much. : )
I'd say clean for Jubilee, and Overdrive and distortion for the CR120. The notes were still pretty clear on the CR120 while on the MG, some of them sort of turned into a muddy hiss if that makes sense.
How is that DFX in that enclosure? Did someone make that, it's pretty cool.
Love your playing man! I got my CR120 because of these videos and you playing!
I had the amp customized into that head box. Look up F A Guitar Cabs. :)
I feel like when you are playing your intro jams youre in a completely different world, and that is what all guitar players want is to get lost in their playing. I could listen to you play all day
Thank you very much. : )
The jubilee had the best clarity or seperation in cords for me in all settings, low mid and treble.
The Orange did well on the clean but both Marshall's were warmer and rounded to my ears.
Overdriven the orange turned a bit muffled and mixed, where the marshalls stay more open sounding. Mg and jubilee are very close, could be wrong but the jubilee sounds more touch sensitive to my ears, which I like.
I liked the silver jubilee but I just bought a Cr120 . Solid state amps are cool and so much affordable . I own a G100r cd , and a little Marshall 15 megastack
Fabulous playing in that intro. Who cares what amp you’re plugged into when you play like that!
Thank you very much. : )
That was the best thing you've ever played. Wish you all the best Dave.
Btw the beard suites you.
Thank you very much. : )
18:03 It's Only Love Riff! I am a little embarrassed these days to admit simple Bryan Adam's songs/Keith Scott were what motivated me to keep playing rock&roll guitar!
No shame in loving Bryan or Keith. Many guitar greats love them too, and rightly so. They're great songs and players.
Silver Jubilee for all of the above :) and I'm not a normaly a Big M kind of Player it just had something that felt right.
MG CLEANS were a OVERWHELMING 1st place. Silver Jubilee dirty was a OVERWHELMING 1st. Wasn't even a close call for me. The orange always sounded like it was "cuppy". It sounded like a 1 x 10 combo - not a lot of separation in the frequencies.. The distorted harmonics in the Jubilee were so wonderful. The MG cleans were very full, lots of presence without being scooped.
Man, that intro was beautiful. If that were the intro to a Chilli Peppers album, people would go crazy over it. Or at least I would! Nice playing man.
Also, to my ears the Jubilee sounds best, but the 2555 is the amp I play everyday at home and my ears are used to hearing it, so maybe I’m biased.
Thank you very much. : )
Wow 😮😮😮😮very inspiring amazing playing great guitar playing can’t wait to see your next solo video!!!Thanks👍😊🙏😎⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Thank you very much. : )
Daves had his Weetabix. That was mind blowingly awesome. You need a record label.
Thank you very much. : )
Great intro jam!!! MG clean. CR120 over driven. Silver Jubilee full out distortion.
Thank you very much. : )
Well just YESSS!!! incredible dave breath taking,🙏👏👏👏, mg was just perfect on all to my ears, jubilee a little bright but still gorge, orange a bit low on tone in this round, surprising thought the jubilee would steal the show, mg is king to my ears, in daves incredible hands of course, great vid man,🙏👏👏👏🙏😉
Thank you very much. : )
The clean tone from the jub and the cr120 sounded so similar but the jub had a bit more high mid.
How did you get an MG housed in, I am guessing, a plexi housing?! Oh and btw they’re all great sounding. The jubilee has something extra though. I’d love to have all 3 but if I could only have one cuz an above earth nuclear emp destroyed every amp in the world except one, I would hope that the jubilee survived.
Wow dude... amazing, I think that intro was my favourite of yours ever. That guitar sounds incredible too. Is there an oswald model like yours? I want it man✨
Thank you very much and there isn't no. Sorry. : )
Hey dave, is there any way you could talk through the notes you used when you played lead on your live forever cover? You did an amazing job and i can't totally get it down by ear.
I'll see what I can do. : )
For me none sounds bad.
Clean: I found that the 3 were equal +/-
Overdrive: I would say that the orange had less bass or it sounded duller than the two marshalls.
The Jubilee sounds a little better, but for the price is to ask if it's worth it in this register. Mays be in heavy tones the Jubilee can to express oneself better than the MG100 (?)
But i also like the fact the Orange can have a gound sound at a low level.
I have a question please i listened to other videos of people who have a MG100 for example and who play 4x12 and it does not sound at all as good as you. Do you play with a 4x12 cab or its 2x12 (or 1x12) ?
Because you sound very good whatever the amp ...(and ofc you play very well too that can explain a lot)
Thank you
Thank you very much. : )
Btw, i have the answer now your(s) cabs are JPM 900 4x12 G1275 75w (or something like this). I'm loving it
Great intro again jubilee,mg and cr120 last,Cheers have a great weekend.
Thank you very much. : )
man, that intro jam was fucking massive.
Thank you very much. : )
Jubilee for cleans by a mile. Beautiful harmonics and overtones. Also liked the jubilee for both of the other tests as the SS amps were horribly fizzy.
Epic intro! Apart of an amazing skill and talent, what effects/pedals do you use to get that tone?
MG had the purest Cleans, they all sound nice, but the other 2 still sounded slightly overdriven, the Silver and Orange both had superb Crunches, Silver might have pipped it, MG, better Heavy Mental High Gain, Silver Ok, the Orange sounded muddy High Gain
Interesting. I'm no sound expert, but these are my thoughts: Clean = Orange (MG warm and nice), O.D. and Dist. = Silver Jubilee. To me these sounded clear with a midrange emphasis that I liked. I play humbuckers (Gretsch + Vintage LP) through a Vox ac15, so that probably affects my taste.
I've got the Jubilee Reissue and it's pretty versatile. The EQ is pretty odd for a Marshall tonestack. Compared to my various DSL's, MA, Vintage Modern and a 1959SLP. I'm always impressed by your Crush tones and the MG series especially. I mean every guitarist i know had one at some point and sold it or traded it in for JCM900/2000 most of the time. Still you make it rock.
Oasis and Alice copper. Spot on stuff
Dave Simpson, one of my favorite guitar players🙌
I plugged my HD555 for that. Clean - MG wins for me, very nice, CR bit lifeless, JUB sounds like has more gain than others, almost breakup. Crunch - MG and CR nice, on pair, but Jubilee wins. Hi gain - CR sounds like broken, MG is bit fizzy - JUB wins for me. It seems like more gain and loudness - tubes still rule. I would set amps different, but it`s a matter of personal preference. Time to save for mini jubilee I guess :)
All sounded amazeballs! It's mg or orange for me but u said only 1 so I pick ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh mg no orange no mg I like it's tone jf all the way sounded like his tone!
MG - Clean came across a lot more present and was clean clean
Jubilee - Crunch richer more harmonic
High gain - close between the Mg and Jubilee
Sorry Orange distant third place in each round .
For the clean tone I'm between the MG and the Orange, for distortion I liked more the sound of Orange.
You should be the one replacing Frusciante instead of Josh... amazing playing, keep doing what you love. Thank you David
I wish. Thank you very much. : )
Omg mate. I've been playing guitar for quite some time now and I have to tell you I was totally blown away by this. You play with such thechnique, feel and emotion, and get totally lost in your music. Its beautiful mate. 😊👍
Your setup her sounds amazing. I see you play a lot of solid state amps.
Have you ever considered the silver jubilee mini? Whats your thoughts about it mate?
Thank you very much and i have considered it but i can't afford it. Not really a valve person. : )
@@thedavesimpson aight thats cool mate😊🤙 in that case I hope Marshall gives you one!
If you in any case gets your hands on one of these badboys i hope you do a review about it mate. Ok, mate cheers😊😎🤙
at 14:43 I laughed so loud I scared my cats
The Jubilee is wide and clear in all cases sounds the best , the Marshall is still deep good sounding but not as much up front as the jubilee .Finally the orange 120 is narrow sharp and doesn't expand the sound as much as the others but maybe you could try another speaker with 120.
They all sound great. Nothing out Marshalls a Marshall. The MG's circuit held the clean and the tube was already breaking up. Orange was never know for clean, but performed well.. The overdrive went to the tube Marshall because that's what they do. Orange was ok again. Now based on the song, Orange didn't do the distortion they are known for. I was expecting the Orange to destroy the Marshalls. The MG hit well, but the Jubilee just sounded muddy and louder on the distortion. Over all, I liked the MG, it worked on all three, the tube ran over everyone on the over driven, but needs pedals for anything else, Orange was respectable, but i know there is a better distortion sound possible from that Orange
The Jubilee sounded best to me for the OD & distortion tones, mainly because it had a lot more presence. I think the Orange would have sounded pretty much as good as the Jubilee if you'd turned the treble up higher, it sounded a bit dull by comparison. Lovely tonality though.
I thought the Jubilee's weakest tone was the clean one.
Jubilee all the way
👏
Man I need a cigarette after that intro... and I don’t even smoke! Haha great jams man i really enjoyed it
Thank you very much. : )
i think the orange sounds the best marshall tend to make their low to midrange amps sound extremely muddy to please people who like powerchords etc. and if you like to add anything to your signal before it gets to the amp it gets 100 times worse. I bet amp for amp the orange would sound better than the other 2 with effects and have more headroom where the marshalls would get thin or tinny sounding. Just my experience. Theres an Australian guitarist on here Casey Jones who used orange before theey were super popular and you can hear how good they sound.
jubilee for me
Orange =Clean just a fuller sound without losing that top end sparkle.
Crunch = jubilee just sounded moreish had more top end.
OD marshall MG like the orange had a fuller sound.
Wait, what happened I passed out! Inspired playing! As Dave is known to say, "Good gravy man!"
Thank you very much. : )
look ma... one hand! Now you're just showing off!! :)
I literally don't remember doing that. Hahahaha. : )
I got the newest mg100 head. Really simple and reliable to use! Ive only ovned two real amps so havent listened to much irl but for me it sounds great atleast
Clean = MG first, Silver Jubilee Second, CR120 third. Overdrive = Silver Jubilee first, MG second, CR120 third. Distorted = Silver Jubilee first, MG second, CR120 third. The surprise for me in this is how much better the MG is across the board than the CR120. Are the MG and CR120 using the same cabinet?
There all going through the same cab yeps. Thank you for watching. : )
Great Intro.
Thank you very much. : )
the crush is my first amp mg my second and silver jubilee my dream amp lol
Dave, this might have already been asked, but how do you add the drums to these jams? Do they come from a looper pedal or something? Thank you.
They come from my Zoom G2.1u's built in drum machine. : )
@@thedavesimpson Well then I've gotta get one of those, haha. Thanks so much!
