- Will it Chug? Here's a problem for you. You want to buy a new piece of gear and you play mainly metal, you're worried if that piece of gear will bring the brooooots. That's why I created this series. It's about doing my metal brethren a service. Will it chug or not! Any tips of gear for me to feature in this series? Put a comment below.

Anyone want a series? I have series... I sell series cheap now... Subscribe to find out more.
If you had a 1000 dollars,what would your rig be?
Do a Boss Katana (not artist) one
You should do a korg miku will it chug just for the fun
Move that amp!
Amazing series, Ola! thanks
2:35 sounds like a call of duty theme song lol
BO2
you made that sound better in 1 minute than I had in 1 year!
is it good?
That is a experience! lml
You just have have dial it in i got mine to sound pretty good
@@Foreverwar97 I ran across a video of a guy dialing in tone from specific rock and metal albums and he absolutely fucking nailed it!
@@kevinlynch5925 link plz
You can have way more fun with it using a sledgehammer:P
I concur sir. It would be fun to drop this off an over pass!
well he manged to get a better tone out this than in your review^^"
SpectreSoundStudios It’s the CODE right? Why not have someone rig it to actually blow itself up when you put in a code?
SpectreSoundStudios tone on 2.05 sec in this video is way better than ANY sound you ever captured mr. hatemouth... So maybe use hummer for your hands!
@@montychristo86 Hmm... that's a pretty good idea, actually :)
Will bet 10 bucks that Glenn says 'nah' and suggests a sledgehammer or a roof.
He beat you by a couple of hours.
@@thorthunderlungs5171 lol
Can't say I'm a fan of the Code. Much prefer a Plexi :)
I'd agree with him
CJ, wtf you doin here, I love your speedruns
The next amp should be the Randall Satan. I heard that amp is good for blues or something?
no,its great for clean worship music.
trillrif axegrindor no the randall satan is a different amp, your thinking of the randall jesus
Can verify, Randall Satan will NOT chug.
Its a metal amp
LolOlLlol so dumb u are 😂
Just wanna see how pissed people will be after reading this 😬
Satan was a blue types of guy
Will it chug? any 50$ practice amp.
the cheapest chug I've ever heard for $50 is a used peavey combo. they have a amp modeler built in with a 6505+ setting. thats pretty much the only thing with a decent chug at that price. theyre readilly available on guitar centers website
Phil Banach peavey Vypyr?
@@reidlingtheseedling peavey of $50, would get an army of bees
LA L good peavey...
Peavy Classic but it has to be hooked up to a Samick strat
I like how I’ve been trying to tweak this amp for two years and still can’t get a decent tone ola adjusts it for 2 minutes and already has a better tone ola is just a god
Yeah. But don't forget, you r listening here the amp miced. That's a BIG difference than sitting next to it or something like that.
it's obvious that the marshall is simply possessed by his satan amp
it's mic'd up
@@Ricardo_Samano I'm glad, you got the point lol
This thing is really easy to get killer tone out of
Thank God !!!!! I can't believe no one has thought of this before ... I swear .... youtube is 90 percent guys playing blues licks and trying to be SRV. I want Chug baby!!!!!!!!!
ruben dominguez Can’t wait for that generation to go away. The amount of videos with that stuff relative to the relevance of the genre is ridiculous.
youtube is full of guys shredding notes instead of making music
SrV didn't invent blues rock. I hope you know that. With that said the metal side of my heart really loves OLA making it about metal
I agree people need to get out of the damn pentatonic scale and come up with their own shit
It’s called Texas shuffle and no he didn’t invent it he perfected it
For what you pay for it - This Amp is a hoot - you get the sound of emulated of every past marshall and anything else in between -
Who's Willy Chug?
:) :) :)
@@MrButterscotch1 It's Bethca's lost husband. (Bethca Can't Play This)
This is like walking into Guitar Center. LMAO.
Have a Code 50 and I love it to bits. Once you get attuned with all it’s options, finding a good tone isn’t hard, and it’s got some good tones in there! (not the stock presets though, those are ass)
One of my mates has a Code and we both found presets we liked in around maybe a minute. The hardest thing, as with all digital gear, is settling on one option and making it sound just how you like it. There are so many choices. I really like the Code series of amps.
Can you tell me what you did to get those tones cause I have one too and I suck ass at getting good tones so I'm currently using the marshal fury preset which this sounds so much better than
Does it get loud? And when you turn it up on the setting you like, does it stay in the lane not lose tone?
Elliot Puckett Just do a metal tone but dial down the gain and up the mids a little. Same goes for distortion. Choose a distorted amp, do whatever with effects, find a good balance between resonance and the other thing (forgot its name but it’s on the power amp) and I usually go for a marshall 100 W cab.
Patrick Herendeen it gets loud, but it’s good for quiet practice. Sometimes it’s hard to get the exact volume you want but you can also use headphones. Also no it doesn’t really loose any tone from turning it up
1:56 People hate on this amp however it still can chug. I have this amp and it sounds good to me, whatever that’s worth!
can you upload this tone on marshall website and drop a link? I would be thankful!
But can it burp?
Make it happen
I would be more impressed if it can fart!
Now we're asking the real questions.
ola proving that one can get good sound from an average amp if you know how... a good craftsman doesn't blame his tools..
You are definitely correct!
You are right but here's the thing. This still sounds like garbage compared to some of the amps today in the same price range. Want a good Marshall clone head. Peavey Windsor. Want an amazing modeler. Bias or Peavey vypyrs. Badass combo. Anything Randall. Mini head. Joyo amps. Now while this thing isn't the absolute worst. For something put out by Marshall it's dogshit
well said
Badly said, an amp can suck ass no matter how you set anything on it, if what you said was really the case then everyone would be using small 20 dollar amps, and a good craftsman can blame his tools, if a screwdriver didn't drive screws into walls despite being used correctly then would that be the craftsman's fault?
I assume you want to do amps that aren't obvious chuggers like the dual rec or satan... So in that mind set... Fender frontman series?
Easy to make it chug. I had the 212 R and this was also f*****g powerfull. Never heard a 2x12 transistor as loud as this one. A Tube screamer and thats good.
lol the videos would be so short. "DAR-FBM 100, will it chug?
...*CHUG*
Yes. /video"
I used to put an od808 with the tone cranked in front of an fm212r and it's not bad at all. The mid cut switch in the lead channel only seems to cut out the low mids and some of the fizzy highs so just dime the mid knob with the mid cut switch and you're good to go on a Pantera/early CC tone.
matthew stacy distortion pedal into fender bassman
I have the 100w version of this and gotta say it’s a pretty solid amp
Me as well. It has a very steep learning curve, but it is a very good amp from late night practice(volume at 1) all the way to shaking my windows. Just have to remember to leave the cab sim turned off.
And me, I love it. It's just some people are quite simply technophobic morons who can't deal with rolling up their sleeves, getting stuck and finding the sound that works for them. By the way, I also own a Blackstar HT Stage 100 valve set up - monster amp. I still maintain the my Marshall Code 100 Combo is one of my best amps.
Its a solid state yes.
never met a modelling amp I couldnt dive into the guts of and get a good sound out of, frankly. Its just time and effort. You get out of it, directly related by how much time and effort you put into it. COSM is no different.
@@chrisdaviesguitar you're 100% right. People want to buy the tone, and sound as their idols and it doesn't work that way. To sound as professional you have to put effort and work as professional. You can't buy some stuff and if someone says the opposite they're trying to sell you a lie=propaganda, advertisement BS.
No
Yo
Go
Ho
Mo
So?
It DOES CHUG! I've got the 100WH, and I've had it for over a year now, and had enough time to find/fix pre sets to get KILLER CHUGS out of it though my 1960B can! My only problem with it is that it doesn't have two outputs! (Very non-Marshall) but a good rig, for the low, low price! Over to you Ola!!🤘 V⚡
I don't why but it's relaxing watching him eq
I actually bought a CODE 50 after watching this. You made it sound awesome. I don't like messing around with pedals so all the effects are cool to me. What did you have for settings just before you hit the wrong setting and had to start over?
You probably should have read the manual 😅. You had delay on the whole time, and the cab button activated the cab sims, but if you hold it you can change the cab. Such as 1960AV, 1960B, 1974CX, 1912.
Why don't you try playing some music over it?
"I think I'm chugging right now. Let's stop the clock" HAHAHA
Just got the code 100 head. Love it! You are so right though. Turn off the cab.
Love my CODE100H! Fav settings for chug is the Plexi amp model, gain on 8-10 with the DIS Pre-fx running as a clean boost, and as you say, I dunno what the hell they were thinking having the cabinet simulation on with every preset.
the code sucks balls for the price, i got a 100 combo, 450 fackin dollars
Traded mine for a pedal .... hated it
Will it Chug: VIOLIN!!!!!
"let us stop the time till it chug"
Ola stops Clock after 1 minute.
After that Ola tweaks the amp 5 minutes long.
Blackstar HT Stage 100, will it chug.
Some will say it's dumb.
I say it's GENIUS!
At 00:41 seconds you're already chugin'
Very good video.
The code is a very good amp. If we know how to use it ... I prefer the Code to Katana. The sounds of the Code are credible.
Damn right it chugs!! This video made me buy this amp!! Thanks Ola
How about doing a comparison series, Marshall 50 vs ... Orange combo and such.
*Good Mythical Morning has joined the chat*
I expect nothing less from a Marshall. It definitely chugs👍👍👍
How do I get the tone at 1:25 not miked?
0:06 I love that sound at the end of the intro
i think the cab simulation is useful only with headphones, so yeah they should have just left it disabled by default I guess
Ola, can you post the settings you used to Chug? At 1:31 (50 seconds into chug with CAB off). I would like to try them and hear it live on my Code 50.
I found something good
The cab sim is great if you're recording direct, but turn it off if you're using a speaker.
I'm a huge Marshall guy, but I admit I was a little weary of this particular amp, but damn it surprised me. Not a bad little amp at all!
Peavey Rage 258. If u can make it chug, then you're not human
Love it. I remember when you didn't speak back in early 2010s. You chugged through a Fender Mustang 1.
For me, do this series.
It sounds fucking great in this video but so many other channels talk shit about this amp
This is awesome Ola, and no matter what I tried, I could not make Marshall CODE Chug the way I'd like to hear! :D
hi ola!
Can you try the peavey bandit transtube 112?
It would be amazing
I have a very old Bandit 112 redstripe and it is great for practicing and you can even gig with it! Bought it second hand 15 years ago and I never thought of selling it.
Didn't this chug rather well? I had the studio 112 and looked at the bandit with envious eyes.
Those transtube amps are amazing. A few minutes spent dialing it in properly and you can get some shockingly good tones.
Or even better, Peavey Transfex 212s. Had one of those and I absolutely loved the sound of it. The pre-amp section went goodnight a while ago, but I'm still using it for the power amp section alone. 2x130w. Pretty insane.
Make a orange crush Chug. Or even a orange mini
I just recently bought the code 50 Marshall and its freaking awesome. It chugged right away. I think as long as you ditch the cab sim t sounds pretty nasty. You can get some metalcore and two step/beatdown sound with it very quickly. Nice amp for around 400 bucks
just bought mine last week...i really like it alot. It has a great tone...much fuller than my line6 or my Peavey Vypyer in the same price range. I've been trying to get Marshall tones outta those..so i just got the code 50...it's awesome
Same! I've been trying to find a good marshall combo for a while. I almost went with the boss Katana but this is a Marshall! How can you go wrong! Hope you get as much enjoyment from your as I do mine mate!
@@alexhueneman6505 I'm enjoying it so much if i am not careful, i'm gonna wind up divorced...lmao. Have a groovy day sir.
I just picked up this amp (Couldn't pass up the deal used for $125). I'm liking it a lot. Although, I'm not a big amp pro, I'm still playing around. The American OD has been my go-to presetting thus far. Anyone know what setting he used on this video?
i would love to see what you can get out of a Bugera V22 Infinium.
V22 is actually very good......not metal....but good
@@joepaul9855 Slam a high gain pedal into the front end?
Of course a Marshall would chug. It’s a freaking Marshall
I love this amp. I love bluetoothing music and playing with it through the speaker
Wow that's awesome
Search for one of the line 6 spider line. Will it chug?
Now the battle everyone wants to see. Boss Katana MK2 VS Marshall Code 50
Reddit eat your heart out this amp sounds great!
Line 6 Spider kombo.... I chalange you :D
Yes ! Finally a competent guitar player understanding how a F*****G cab simulator works and understanding the product before reviewing it.
That amp sounds good
I bought Boss Katana, but CODE 50 was competetor. Well, I guess I have chosen.....wisely.
I think there is a pillow instead of a speaker in the Code... I bought a Katana 50, changed for the Code 50 and quickly turn back to the shop for a new Katana 100.
Katana amps are awesome compare to the boxy electronic sound of the new Marshall CODE's! In the future, try to buy the Katana 100 2x12 (i have it and it's the beast).
I ended up going with the Blackstar idcore100 over the katana but I still like it’s sound
For £177 that amp can fucking play, honestly kind of want one even though I’ve got an expensive orange rig
I have this amp...the cab button he was stuck on let you choose what model cabinet u want...ie..2x12..4x12...1x10..Marshall of course..every model speaker cabinet...best button there is on it...be nice if after a week he did a repeat on the amp..i hsve this amp..runs Bluetooth to any phone snd let you use a app to control all the knobs and setting...best amp ive bought under 1500 dollars
Still amazed at how good that lemon lime guitar looks, especially against that wall.
for those who search for a clean tone 4:48 - 4:52
I never think of Marshall when I think of brutal Heavy Metal these days. I think classic rock or British metal and metal up to 1985. I like Marshall but when I see the name "Logo" I just always think of classic rock.
Why does everyone focus on the small code amps, I get its the 50 but I never see people reviewing the code 100
As an addition to this series it might be cool if you shared your desired setting for each amp. In that way your subscribers with that specific amp can get your chug-sound!
I own one, if you spend the time with it and learn how it works, great amp.
Randall RD-1H Diavlo please
yes
Theres no bad amplifier, we just dont know how to use it! XD
Ola, the chug machine
Boss katana 100. Please good sir.
I should add that THIS video has sold me on the Code 50. I tried it out at local GC against a Katana 100. I could chug almost immediately on the Code 50. I kept going back to the Katana but every time I did I was not looking forward to it. The Code 50 wins hands down, and the noise gate is awesome!
Holy Shit: 3:30 Is some CHUG, bro.
Can you make a Fender Hotrod deluxe chug??
Hotrod Deluxe's drive channel actually has a way more modern vibe than most people realize. Perfect for shoving a boost in front and having a chug fest.
@@jonnelson5881 I have not tried an overdrive, but I have used different types of multi-effects pedals to get great metal tones and the cleanest sounding non-distorted tones out of a Hotrod Deluxe. I guess that is kind of cheating, but it sounds great.
I had mine cooking pretty good with no overdrive pedal.It has a built in overdrive that was decent.
i think that every amp should have a preset that just have the most heavy setting that it could have in the amp
just to simplify things
The Code 50 sucks
On the other hand, the Vox Valvetronix AD30VT costs just 100 used and will blow this amp out of the water.
Melhor canal do TH-cam! Curto demais aqui do Brasil. Pena não ter legenda em português...
Agora tem.
Hey try the Ultra Metal UM300 from Beheringer lml
I’m completely on board for this series, can’t wait to see more.
Love you, Ola
I am buying one of these, and I got on here to see reviews. I've seen his "will it chug" series on other practice amps and trust his judgement. I only watched this video a little over a minute and he said "Oh shit!" and the tone was amazing. Heard all I needed! Went and bought the amp! LOL You know it's good when Ola gets excited! XD
Fender champ 40. Either my recognizition for a good chug is way off or im actually on to something with this amp. I played some gojira and death riffs on it and it sounded decent.
gorija on a fender sounds like some sort of witchcraft to me
Still fairly rough sounding, but at least the 50 with the 12 inch speaker sounds much more tolerable than the 25 with the tinny 10 inch speaker.
Another great Serie ☺
Maybe put that on JCM800 or Bluesbreaker - start from there and get funky - how close it is to the JCM800 is nice and this is what 1/3 the price of a JCM800 people whine about this but it is infinitely adjustable to you and your other gear -my JCM cost 1k in the 1990's I got one of these for what $500 - FANTASTIC for a practice amp ? these things are real nice Grunge to smooth at a push of a button?
Peavey vypir 15w....i bought that one because of your review, about 4yrs ago...let me see what you can squeeze out of it
And i also bought fender mustang i from ola's video too!
Still have it as my main amp lol !
I bought the Boss Katana Mini from the Ola video, but already send it back. Everything sounds so great in his video's.
@@doomguy1430 me too though I didn't buy it on Ola's recommendation. I bought it after a selling a much larger/louder amp that wasn't practical for home use anymore. I now do a few gigs and could do with that amp AND the Mustang! :)
@@MrButterscotch1 I like the metal tones of my mustang!Ok not the best for a metalhead but pretty good.And with the fender fuse you have so many things to do!I don't regret buying that amp.
How to make it chug way faster....Turn bass and treble up all the way. Turn mids down all the way. Crank up gain. Adjust volume as needed.
boss katana 50 or marshall code 50?
how is that even a question ?
michael vasileiadis Boss Katana all the way!
I have a Boss Katana 50. It sounds kinda muffled like I'm on the bridge pick-up. Do you have this with yours?
Boss katana 50
Mark Brown load in a sneaky amp, better than any of the imo shit standard ones
Ola,could you find a kustom coupe 36 or 72. Build and designed by James brown. Who designed the peavey 5150 among others?thanks jim k. Lv nv
I don't want to win that.
90% of the time I play completely unplugged. The damn thing makes noise doesn't it? I'd give it to someone who really wanted to learn how to play guitar if I had one. Especially if it were free you gotta pay your dues. How do you know an amp or guitar is good (in your opinion) if you haven't heard or played shit (in your opinion)? That amp could inspire some kid to become the next guitar god you gotta learn on something.
Of all the other reviews of this amp as a metal amp, it sounded like ass. It took Ola exactly 40 seconds to make it sound killer. You either have metal voodoo in your fingers or your a damn tone master, either way, "can it chug" is a brilliant idea.
Its a shame this channel is turning into generic youtube garage. "Up next, 1 riff 20 band styles, I write a song in 30 seconds, You won't believe what i did to my guitar"
I remember really loving the Code 50, especially the bottom end, so beautifully thicc. (Yes, with 2 C's)
I think it would be ultra cool if you wozld release a song twice. One release with your favorite gear and one with the cheapest amps and mics possible. I think nowadays it is possible to sound decent but it takes maybe much longer to get it sound right
It actually doesn't sound too bad for a practice amp, but its way too pricey. You'd be much better off with a katana 50 or a free amp sim
Came across one of these used for $150. I am a fan of modeling amps, and I have a Fender Mustang GT200 that I love and use daily at home. Is this like the Marshall equivalent? I am seriously considering buying just for shits and giggles.
Chug Schuldiner :-)
I don't know what everyone is on about, I think it sounds killer. Didn't expect that from a Marshall digital amp.
