That setup is gagging for the Korg Miku
Ikr? Totally missed the opportunity to get that CLASSIC tone smh. 🙄
Would you guys consider doing a "glossary" video? "Here's what farty sounds like..., Here's what fizzy sounds like..., Here's lots of compression..." etc. Love your videos guys!
YES PLEASE THIS
Please make this happen. That would be fun!!!
That would be awesome. Farty, fizzy, boxy, etc etc, and possibly how to fix them too!
Odd. My response disappeared but I'm still notified of others' responses to this comment.
I’d love to show you what farty sounds like!
"Can this footswitch do all three at once?"
Captain Lee, always asking the important questions
They definitely have to do that!
The look on his face as he asked the question was priceless... looked like a kid in a candy store
The secret to great tone: TURN UP THE VOLUME MAN
Yes. Or in other words. Get a smaller amp, that isn't going as loud and you will get the same result.
Yes. Sadly for years and years guitar amps have always mislabeled the tone knob and labeled it as volume... I can't figure out why they haven't realized it yet.
as the old saying goes "If it's too loud, you're too old!"
@@p_mouse8676 It is the pressure and movement of air that makes those amps so great to play. Sure you can get something smaller but it will not be the same results.
I run my JCM900 at 2 1/2 and it sounds glorious.
The dislikes are people who live in that house 40m away or whatever they said xD
Must be a large family
What!!??? I can't hear you
Rob is smart to wear ear plugs. I've been playing loud music in dive bars for more than three decades and I have permanent tinnitus, likely from all the aforementioned loudness. Be smarter than I was.
WHAT?
Huh?
Lawrence Gillespie you what?
Lawrence Gillespie yeah, I’ll have a Guinness mate.
My ears have constant ring from too many “fun” gigs!
Not watched these guys for a while. Lee’s playing has improved immeasurably
lee is damn good now.
Same and Same
The obligatory “lee’s gotten better” comment. Every dang video. Stop it people!!
He took private lessons from Justin Sandercoe of JustinGuitar fame. The lessons are posted on TH-cam.
I remember the day in 1971 when our guitarist brought his new Marshall stack to rehearsal. Fortunately I was playing through a pair of Ampeg SVTs with an 8x10 and a 2x15 cab, so I could match him decibel for decibel. So fun! 😎
Thats why he needed the Marshall stack! you and the drummer!
Were you in a band or working for a remodeling company?
@@bassplayer2011ify Wrecking company I think, but hey, it was 1971! 😎
you should sell cheapo beach balls with the Andertons logo on them
Hats off to anyone who’s able to read that scrolling text while also listening to the presenters.
It is a bit quick isn't it!
Made me a bit queasy
@@andertons No issues here, but I get it. My GF complained too.
I'm listening, watching the scroll text, and replying to this comment simultaneously!
@@andertons It looked like interesting info though! Stick it up on the blog!
The Over-Editing makes these Videos so fun to watch. I bet Rory is having a great time even coming up with this stuff🙈
Next: JCM 800, Orange Rockerverb, and EVH 5150
That was incredible, but let's take it to the next level. Ultimate doom rig: SG tuned to B standard with treble booster and fuzz into 200 watts of Orange and 200 watts of Laney. Pay off your neighbor, everyone has a price.
14:55 - That lead tone is pure magic.
You’re both commenting on how loud it is... meanwhile your mates over at “That Pedal Show” are sayin’ “Hold my Beer!”
To be fair, That Pedal show rarely goes above 105 and I don't know if they measure 2 feet in front of the speakers the way Rob and Lee did in this video. 115 is WAAAAAY louder than 105. PS. In Mick's case its probably "Hold my Wine!"
@@livingthedream137/videos I think TPS has theirs somewhere further away because 105 is pretty loud. I'd prefer something around 100 dB @ 1m max for something that sounds amazing but is not painfully loud. 115 dB is the kind of volume where you don't want to stand in front of the amp and nobody is going to play that loud anywhere these days, it's the kind of volume where it does not get better, just more painful.
kasakka the best gig I’ve been to for guitar tone was Mick, Neville and Jamie at the Cream gig they did at Bristol Jazz and Blues fest. Mick’s Two Rock, Neville’s Friedman 50W and Jamie’s two Dr Z amp’s all screaming out White Room was the most visceral punch in the gut I’ve felt, and I’ve been in the pits during the V8 F1 era!
Lads, if you wanted to hear loud, you needed to see Free live. They made The Who sound like a smooth jazz band. My hearing is definitely a victim of a misspent youth at those concerts. I'm talking tinnitus for days afterward.
All I can think of is the Colorsound+HIWAT episode they did.
"Biblical Guitar sound" -Mick
Brian May got the treble boost idea from Rory Gallagher when he asked him how he got his sound after seeing Taste. Rory Gallagher is a Legend!!!!!
It's what every guitar player wants to do every once in awhile. Feel that air moving and your body vibrating.
Very late reply, but yeah, this is exactly what every guitarist should experience. I lived in a very secluded rural area for a few years as a teenager, and I was able to crank my Twin Reverb nearly every day out there (of course, wearing hearing protection lol). Even though I wasn’t as good then as I am now, there’s something spiritual about being enveloped in the sound of your amp. It truly feels otherworldly.
Been waiting for this!
Man I’m in love with my Vox all over again!
Great upload! Me and my mate talked about these amps and their lineage today over lunch... So cool...
The lemon burst Lester and the 335 are amazing. Loved it.
Thanks for sharing, guys.
I love how much you guys love this. Really not my favorite kinds of sound, but the joy is palpable :D
"Rob and Lee Decide to Go Moderately Deaf in a Small Room (Part 1)"
Genuinely, I do worry that you may need better ear plugs for this sort of thing.
And I too worry about upsetting my neighbors that aren't even mildly close to me, but my amps aren't NEARLY as loud as those buggers... I do hope they weren't bothered, heh.
I'm worried that the earplugs aren't doing anything. When using those foam style plugs, they should be compressed and then inserted deeeeeeply. Whenever we use them, they're nearly flush with the opening of the ear canal. Rob's look like they're being used as decoration and not very much for utility.
@@TrashHulk "Push them in till they touch" seems to be the guideline
@@wea69420 You have to roll the end of them in your fingers, then put them in and let them expand in your ear. They definitely didn't do that.
@@derekbaker247 oh yeah. I thought of it as obvious but it seems they didn't.
Lol the editing in these videos is always on point! Fun and informative :D
Lee playing sunshine of your love. Hot DAMN! What a tone
Editing here was fantastic!!!
OMG what a joy to hear all the 3 amps at the same time. Your berst sounding video EVER! Congrats chaps!
5:10 that middle position got instatly yeeted back where it came from 😂
Welcome to life as it used to be in my teens 49 years ago when you stood on a stage being regularly kicked up the arse by these beasts. Bass through a Marshall stack is a real personal experience that lasts a lifetime That's why we are all deaf.
What? Could you repeat that?
Totally pointless video. YET, one of your best 😂, this is just something every guitarist wants to do, great stuff guys.
As was said recently, Anderton's TV is the Top Gear (Clarkson era) of Guitar videos. .... Just because something is pointless doesn't mean it can't also be hilariously entertaining. :)
@@pulaski1 totally 100% agree man, love these guys like I do Clarkson, Hammond, and May🤘🏼
I don't comment a lot on the videos, however I do watch a ton of them. They are much appreciated and always excited to see the new ones you produce. AM I YELLING?
hahahhah THE SLIDE
♥ Rory
😂Yeah, that was pretty epic indeed!
Must be a dad
That was great! Reminds me of my 77 silver face twin reverb. Really hacks off the neighbors, even a block away. You guys rock in more than one way.
The video content is great, the editing is the cherry on top. Thanks to whoever that slide genius is.
That is why they are classic amps. Thank you guys just pure unadulterated joy!!! I miss my old plexi from when I was a teenager but not sure my neighbours do!!!
Really liking the text with extra info at the bottom of the video!
I went to Musicstore in Germany to buy a Kemper, I came home with an AC30!
My god that thing is ALIVE! Recorded tones and vids never do it justice, you NEED to hear and FEEL it to fully appreciate it.
Oh man the end was amazing!
Bravo Andertons ! On vous aime pour ce genre de vidéo ! Bravo !
That was friggin’ INSANE🤘🤘🤘
Hats off to CAP and CHAPPERS!
Cap, you are definitely playing way more unreserved! You’re Rockin’ 🎸🎸🎸
Lee's playing has improved so much over the last 6-12 months. Sounding great!
God bless whoever edits these videos, cracks me up every time. 10\10
This is their best video and all three amps together is a perfect rock sound.
Awesome video! Had expected to like the Marshall most but ended up liking the Vox the most. Glad I watched this with a volume control 😂
Once again the Vox seems to shine though it all and sparkle...................Still sounding like an instrument all be it with a little grit.
This is how electric guitars should sound like.
I don't think the full blown amps sound any better than a moderate volume sound from preamps tubes or a drive pedal.
Always good to see you two together. Tones that seem to always work best for me would be a Fender into a Marshall and 4x12, or a Gibson into a Fender amp. My Les Paul through my 65 twin reverb is perfect, my tele and strat sound best into my JCM900. Something about a high output guitar into a clean amp, and a low output guitar into a high gain amp just works.
Commenting to give some love to the Bassman which I think is underrated in classic amp discussions, definitely my personal favourite tone (no matter how much I like tube driven trem and spring reverb)
love these guys! great vid
Back in the day we just cranked these and loved it...LOUD!! And so did the crowd!! We just loved it
I play my bluesbreaker cranked every day and I can't get enough of it!
This is a superb vid very entertaining cheers lads 🎸🎸🎸
Waiting for Nate & Lee to give us a bass version of this. Nice work!
That les Paul into the vox sounded so good
Same, i am surprised that combo isn't used more as they really compliment each other well
U_Say_What_Fool my rig. It rocks!
I use a Les Paul with two 15 watt EL84-powered combos. That tone is pure magic!
Wow captain Lee Anderton! You are turning into Mr rob Chapman himself - liking overdrive and feedback then lobbing your pick at Pete and/or the camera at the end! Wow!
In all seriousness, yet another great video!
Good vids these andertons,nice fellas
So much stuff seemed to be better in the old days
BUT
we just didn't know it by then (;-)
great vid ... thanks a lot!
I was sooo excited for this when I seen it on insta
Their reactions, the tones, and the dB readings only allude to the awesomeness of being in the same room as a cranked, proper-sized valve amp ... or two ... or THREE!
There really is nothing like cranking an amp! I've only ever had the pleasure of doing it a couple of times. But my favourite was cranking my diezel amp. I had to use earplugs so I wouldn't go completely deaf, but my god the feeling of that air moving was just incredible!! Nothing can replicate that feeling of being punched in the gut every time you play a power chord!!!
Psh 115dB, I remember in the old Anderton days on Rob's channel when they cranked the Marshall AFD100 and measured it they were at 126dB. Seriously though, years of excellent content guys, keep it up!
none of those vintage reissue amps are over 45 watts!
A warm hearted ‘Miss you’ to Chappers and the Captain.
I have a British made AC30 and it is crazy loud, even compared to the JTM 45. I can only imagine what their ears felt like after sitting so damn close! Great to hear the Holy Trinity of tube amps in one session guys.
Damn man! Killed it on that last jam!
It would be nice to hear some room audio for the amps. I always think it helps you get a better idea of what the amps sound like if you were there playing them, rather than hearing them on a recording.
Great video!
The secret to amps like this is turning the bass all the way down so they roar more than flub.
Adding an aftermarket choke will help this:)
i use a 70’s music man with a 15” speaker and i’ve always found using more bass helps my tone. although i am using a jaguar and in a 3 piece band. so more bass helps us sound a lil bigger.
@@Cauldronofbats666 The 15" will handle bass far better than anything else, so your choice doesn't surprise me. It also handles clean sounds better than anything else.
@@Cauldronofbats666 That is really interesting. I noticed they were using sounds that were primarily distorted, and when you turn down the bass on old amps like these it gets rid of the flub that occurs when you crank it and makes the amps roar more and sound more crunchy and tight.
Oh yeah. I use a Vox AC30 with a treble booster. Such a roaring tone. Ala Brian May :)
That tele and vox was killer along with the strat and jtm 45. So crispy
Great video! Proper tone!!
They all sound awesome. Each one has its own strengths and uses
AC30 sounded the best gunned into their setup here.
Love the Fleetwood Mac "Oh Well" in there. Takes me back to high school!
Could tell Captain REALLY enjoyed the feedback at the end! :)
THAT WAS FUN! Thanks.
As per Rob's comment about Brian May's odd choice of putting a Treble Booster into an AC30, you have to keep in mind that the old Vox were much darker in tone than the new ones. Plus he cranks them up, which increases the low end and scoops some of the mids (thanks to the Fletcher & Munson curve). If you want a TB pedal to make sense with your new Vox, turn that Tone Cut to the right until it sounds great!
Been waiting for this video ever since Pete posted those amps on his Instagram story. Love it.
Ahhh Pete is such a tease... Glad you liked the Video!
This video was AWESOME.
The sounds we're just wicked. :)
Throw out the SS amps Dave and grab some valve love :))
@@trollfiddler I'll stick with my MGs. ;)
The reason I still have my 100w Peavey Triple X is because 5 years ago I got to crank it.
Great sounds mates.
Went to Reno's on Oxford road Manchester UK circa 1967.In the amp room upstairs they had a wall of 100 watt Marshall amp stacks with two 4x12 cabs,angled and straight,in different colours. In the middle of these stacks of power was a weedy looking Fender Pro Reverb which I.M.H.O blew the other amps away with it's tone and power.
Absolutely loved this, I was laughing so much at your reactions
Lee just keeps getting better and better
Glorious sound to my ears no matter what.
Man. Love that tele rob has latched on too.
both you and time pierce have released the same video in the last week. both equally great!
Awesome!! Thank you
Awesome vid guys. Great deafness for everyone!
Nice touch with that Peter Green lick! (7:54) For anyone who doesn't know, the track's called Oh Well. There's a great video of Peter Green playing it live with Fleetwood Mac back in 1969. 👍🤘
Thank you for your sacrifices.. for science... This was glorious.
I've been to a Yingwie M concert and my ears were ringing for 3 days (no joke). I wondered how Rock musicians survive onstage loudness and wall of Marshall stcks....until someone on the met kindly taught me that they use in-ear monitors and often time those 'wall's are cardboard lookalikes - probably only one mic-ed is real. Thanks for the wonderful experiment video!!
I've noticed lately that Lee's playing has gotten much better and diverse. Good for him! It may be a coincidence but he did do a couple videos with Justin from Justin Guitar beginning about a year ago. Maybe he got some lessons too?
Vox AC-series are the best. Those cleans and those overdrive sounds are great with any guitar plugged in.
Now that’s a video!
we used to play at those volumes all the time - I mentioned it to my mate dave , he said 'half past 6'
nice to see Rob back
The beach ball had me laughing so hard
Haha me too!
Fender Marshall and Vox all singing together. 😢 its beautiful! 🤘🏻❤
Addendum- Lee playing a Les Paul always seems to bring a fantastic extension of his Strat-style that , IMNSHO has produced his most engaging and perhaps, best playing.
That crazy German, Henning, did a review of a Marshall 20w Studio Vintage fully cranked once. He damaged his ears in the process.
Great sound of course, but I wouldn't do it this way.
Not without proper protection
Nothing gets me pumped up like a cranked guitar amp. You can just hear the amount of air these amps were pushing even through the recording. Jesus man. This was great.
In the words of JHS ‘Loud is more good’
hahaha I was thinking about that too.
F**k.. When Lee puts it through all three, I can feel something in my $2 shop headphones. Pressure!
More is MORE!!!!!!
3 awesomeness of a amps!!!!
Man last time I was this early Lee couldn’t play guitar
10/10 comment
@@JPDevlin no doubt
Samurai Studios Yeah, but through playing with people like Rob and Pete he has improved drastically since I started watching
@@garrettcarrigan2354 for the last couple of years he's really been outplaying Rob. He's always had more soul but now he has the technique to back it up.
He’s been playing for 30 years.
