Here’s a question...asking you because you are most recent comment. What would happen if you put an overdrive in the jumped channel?.. then you could blend that in no ? could be very cool idea. One straight channel one with even more dirt to blend in. Possibilities could be endless with other effects as well in front like that then others in the loop....lol. Just asking and saying.
@@MrIkesimba no different circuitry. What makes the bassman awesome is high and low inputs for two different channels which can be crosspatched. Its basically what the "Plexis" copied.
Thank you for a very fine demo. The "live" adjusting of the controls while playing the same leads is an excellent way to judge sound differences. Thank you.
Very nice demo. Just got today SV20H and it sounds exactly same as in your video. I run it through Two Notes Torpedo Captor X and tired with different cabinet speaker combos and it just sounds awesome.
Hi, I’m thinking of getting one of these… how do u find the tone through the Torpedo captor x? Any tone loss? I would def need to reduce volume, but still want ‘that sound’!
@@sojerz1044 Celestion V Types. I mean it's pretty loud but I don't find it as loud as people say it is period for me it's as loud as a regular 20 watt amp. I also love the way it sounds with a volume attenuator in the effects Loop. This allows me to really drive the front end harder and I prefer the tones I get that way. Fatter and warmer and also at moderate levels if I wish.
Nice sounds! I play a 1969 50W head, model 1987, and the distorted sound of this is very reminiscent, perhaps a bit more ‘wild & wooly’, at least with single coils. Point is, very close. Gorgeous clean tones every Marshall is famous for. Add the many modern conveniences and this should be a popular Marshall amp. Thanks for your excellent review, dialing tone controls. First rate.
Chad Bierman Traditional no. master volume do. Before breaking up they produce such a sweet amazing almost clean tone (there is a little bit of crunch). The Marshall super Bass amps are imo the best clean / slight crunch amps ever produced if you ask me.
@@bingobongo1615 Thanks so much for the info. Yea finally looking into more marshalls just cause after playing fender blackface for years just for some more tone variety.
this is how an amp demo video should be done! standing ovation on the video. love the amp. I am fortunate enough to own one of these with the cab you demo and they are an incredible combo.
@Ricky Anthony well that’s hard to describe with just words. I’ve never placed a DB meter on it but to my ears it’s loud enough to be used with any band I’ve ever played in before. I also have no desire to use it home without an attenuator on it.
@Ricky Anthony you’re very welcome. It’s a great amp and truly has that plexi sound. For me it’s plenty loud enough. Try one out and that will be the best way to see what you think on volume etc. like all plexi amps, it does sound better at a good volume.
I'm not a Marshall guy, but decided this is the only one I would consider snagging after watching Brett Kingman's demo, especially the blending if the clean tones. Very versatile! And this video only reinforces my interest. Great demo, thanks!
I have come to find that I am not the biggest fan of Marshall amps that have chased the trend of becoming modern sounding. I keep coming back to the SLP sound, and this little amp sounds incredible. I might have to buy one at some point.
Great job and sound as always. This is what I call an "all night sound " no need to change it. Roll back the volume , step on clean boost , Bob's your uncle.
those cleans.. amazing. no need for the fender cleans anymore :) love the versatility and good job on this demo. usually everyone just pushing the plexi for just that one legendary tone. but this has so much more to offer. this is becoming my no1 amp on my wishlist.
Here I was thinking nobody knew about As Tall As Lions....THANK YOU FOR THAT!!! That was awesome. Definitely thinking of getting one of these, that classic Marshall distortion is what I’m after.
I gave up on Marshall when I stupidly sold my killer 1959 because I was too young to know that I'd spend decades looking for something that had that clean sound. My God it was unlike anything else out there. I currently play Mesa Boogie but this little amp here has turned my head massively and I can actually hear the harmonic richness that I haven't heard since the 80's when I flogged mine. I was massively disappointed with everything Marshall put out after the JCM800 particularly from the clean point of view. That's proper, old school, plexi clean and it's fat too. I must have one.
The volumes are not sensible. At 5 Watts it's too loud to play in clubs, at least here in Vienna. I solved the situation with a Little Black Amp Box in the FX Loop and it's amazing!
Wow, As Tall As Lions in a gear demo... never thought I'd see the day! I can't remember being this excited since that time the Regular Car Review guys did a Margot and the Nuclear So n Sos song. Lol
I am using the combo with a RAT and a holly grail reverb in front, it is killer if your are after Beck or G. Moore sounds! j'ai le combo, il est super avec une RAT et une reverb devant !
In my opinion, this is absolutely the best Plexi they ever made. They successfully captured 90% of the tone......it has more useful features.......and it's far more practical. Who the hell needs a 100 watt amp these days anyway. ( Unless you're playing in large stadiums of course. ) I used to own & gig a 50w JCM 800, and later a 100w JCM 900. I much prefer this little Plexi, hands down.
Everyone needs a Super Lead. A JMP 1987 50 Watter is also way more funny than this. Use a good attenuator if you can't take the heat of the real thing. These baby amps are for babies.
@@Stockholm.sweden I can already tell you don't know a damned thing about working gigs. I can also tell you've never played ina true working band......or else you wouldn't be spewing such stupid shit. And you damn sure haven't played through the little SV20. Clueless idiots like you think "20 watts is 20% of 100 watts". Nothing can be further from the truth. 20 watts rms is a loud fucking little amp, plenty for the loudest drummer & all gigs. 50 watts rms is about 80% of 100 watts rms........and 20 watts rms is about 65% of 50 watts rms. This little SV20 can get your ass evicted from any apartment. The difference is, you can actually crank this amp to get the true Plexi tone without sheering the enamel off everyone's teeth & killing animals. You can't even use a 50 watt amp cranked up to get those power tubes really cooking in the average night club, they would tell you to either turn it down or throw your ass out. Get a fucking clue punk.
@@howabouthetruth2157 I did not say the Studio Vintage is not loud. I just don't think it can be compared to a real vintage 100 or 50 watt JMP. If you want the real thing, buy the real thing. FYI I've been working as a pro since 1993. Head of pro studios for 10+ years. Done albums, toured, been a tour leader at Donington Download etc. You want a small cheap Marshall, buy the Studio Vintage. Want the real thing, buy a vintage JMP and be done with it.
Those settings are INCREDIBLY loud through a cab unless you are using a load into IR's. Even the clean setting at 5 watts is pretty loud in a room through a cab. Sounds nice though!
Sounds great, straight forward and informative. Wish I could buy one of Everything :) but as it is I don’t have room for any more gear... I know, great problem to have.
Do you have a band? I’d be up for hearing your tunes. I’d also tell you this amp sounds great, but you make every damn thing you touch sound excellent.
No yacking and just playing, this is how you demo an amp
Here’s a question...asking you because you are most recent comment. What would happen if you put an overdrive in the jumped channel?.. then you could blend that in no ? could be very cool idea.

Now Fender needs to make a 20 watt 59 bassman.
A '59 bassman is already 45 watts. You're not going to notice a difference in volume between a 20 watt amp and a 45 watt amp.
@@MrIkesimba I'm talking about less "headroom" on a 20 watt.
More watts essential gives you more clean volume on the same tone stack.
@Florian Späth they do, or did. It's called a Twin Reverb.
@@smokepeddler Well, that's true. But wouldn't a 20 watt tweed Fender just be a 5c5 tweed Pro?
@@MrIkesimba no different circuitry. What makes the bassman awesome is high and low inputs for two different channels which can be crosspatched.
Its basically what the "Plexis" copied.
High quality demo. No nonsense, no useless talking about the specs read right off the website. Just tones, demo of the controls ect. Well done!

I'm gonna try these settings. I recently got this amp and I'm BLOWN. The best sounding amp I've ever heard. I can't even play my other ones now.
What speaker(s) are you using...is it crazy loud?

No, it does not.
Wow, that sounded sweet. I didn’t know I needed one until now.
Pleasently suprised at just how nice the cleans are.
Love the Lower Than Atlantis riffage there. Good ol' Emily. Just got one of these today. excited to plug the combo in and feel the Plexi magic.
This sounds so much better than the SCH head, great demo Toby

Plexis have ALWAYS cleaned up like this... I mean, since the early 60's... so there never WAS any needs for the fender cleans...
Beautiful tones that are exactly what im looking for - thanks for sharing the settings!

F Stop Blues - great choice, such an underrated song
I just bought a Marshall SC JCM 800 20 watt. It’s badass. This one is next
That f stop blues was sooo smooth
The best demo I have seen on this amp, period.
watching it again. can´t get enough of that sound!
Best amp demo I’ve seen. Great work.
Sounds like a dream
Sounds like a really impressive little amp and sensible volumes too.
Zilla Cabs played one yesterday it’s fing loud even on 5 watts
The volumes are not sensible. At 5 Watts it's too loud to play in clubs, at least here in Vienna. I solved the situation with a Little Black Amp Box in the FX Loop and it's amazing!
Gosh that clean sound is beautiful !
I need one of these in my life
This is how you demo gear. Not a word needed.
Here to show my appreciation for the As Tall As Lions riff at 3.00 🙌🏼
Great no bs demo.
Amp sounds good, keep them coming
Just ordered one of these. I’m so stoked!!!
GREAT job with this demo.
Ah, I've been waiting for this! Great demo! Makes me want to get one...
amazing tones. awesome demos you make dude. thanks. your channel has become a reference point for my gear buying decisions.
Cheers does help 👍
@@TobysGuitarGearDemos then cheers mate! 🍻🤘🏻😆
Great review! After watching this video I have an urge to buy this amp.
Great demo! Couldn't have done it any better!
I've built quite a few Plexi's in my day. This definitely captures the magic!
the clean sounds section reminds me of chase this light riff
This is a VERY well made Demo! Thank You!
Way behind the curve, I am,
I know. Gotta say, what an awesome demo 👍🏻
Great demo mang! Thanks! 🤘🏼
thank you for this review! the best so far!
One of the best amps available, period!
Wow! Just wow!
Soundwise, the SV20H is basically a small version of the 1987X. Great amp!
Perfect demo, thanks!
amazing demo format!! just subscribed!
Nice work on the demo!!
Wow, As Tall As Lions in a gear demo... never thought I'd see the day! I can't remember being this excited since that time the Regular Car Review guys did a Margot and the Nuclear So n Sos song. Lol
Name of the song please?
Nice jack johnson, good to know I'm not the only one likes that song
I was about to post the same comment! ^^
awesome review man!
Beautiful work !
Best demo I have ever seen.
nice demo! Sounds awesome!
Great demo,sounds fantastic..
I am going to buy this exact combo! Sounds awesome!
This is all you need.
Really good video and playing.
Best amp demo ever!!🤘🤘
Great review! Awesome amp!!!
2:57: we got em boys
Very nice job I need to explore Marshall stuff for here at home. Sounds great!
Marshall are back, this sounds great!
Excellent video!! No shred-fest BS or any other unneeded crap.
Sounds very cool
Love the As tall as Lions riff
O clean desse ampli é um dos mais lindos que ja vi
love these Marshall amps but for the stupid prices I will stay with my 79 Marshall Master volume MK2 combo.good video thankyou 🎸🎶👍
Played the combo today and it sounded great. Think I’ll end up with one of the heads though.
Well, I bought the head and cab. Super impressed. Still have to run an attenuator though lol. That 5 watts is still wicked loud!
Wow men, I had planned to buy one to use at room volume and you told me this XD. But still wanting one
What attenuator are you running with it?
Steven Roper rivera rock crusher
Waylon Holbrook awesome thanks man!
This. And yes, wicked loud at 5 watts. I run mine through a Torpedo Captor for the -20db attenuation.
Great video. Thanks from Sweden! 🙋🏻♂️
I am using the combo with a RAT and a holly grail reverb in front, it is killer if your are after Beck or G. Moore sounds! j'ai le combo, il est super avec une RAT et une reverb devant !
Machester Orchestra riffs? The Only One? Nice demo!

Wow! Originally a simple circuit, narrowed to 20Watts. Many, very impressive Tones. If its built Strong, worth $.
i like that simple D A A C# F# chord progression
Turning the EQ knobs : same sound.
Turning the volume up : OMG
that's old shool marshall for ya!
Listening this while using preamp tube, noice sound
Really a great amp!
Perfect Demo!! Doesn't get much better than this ;-)

Loud is good
Loud enough for gigs?
great review.
Sounds great!
best amp tutorial i've seen
They need to make a HW version of this with a tube rectifier.
Possibly a low-powered JTM45?
Great amp and great videos!
Good demo good video
