rob could probably tell us how many winds are on a pickup
Pretty sure it's around 1300, but Rob could probably give you a more accurate answer since Chapman make pickups
@@ryandoody2670 He didn't want an actual number man he was just complimenting Rob :)
@@ryandoody2670 you're looking at x4-5 times that depending on the pickup. Duncan has taked in a few videos about the amount of turns on his pickups
Holy fuck nobody got it. It was a joke because Rob is the best in those blindfold videos and he gets everything
WOOOOSH
Whoever edits these videos is criminally underrated, he adds in so much little details to make it more entertaining.
You know what MAKES these videos? You all genuinely have a good time making them. Always laughing and joking and smiling...it really comes through.
That's too true. A group of guitar nerds who are a lot less charming, would be really tedious to watch. The interplay between the presenters (and the banter/singing behind the camera), the endlessly loaded Antertons store and let's face it, a nice studio that looks kinda cozy.
And holy hell, does Roberto know how to play the guitar blindfolded!
yeah idk kinda seems fake to me
I really like the bit at the start with Lee talking about his selections in the store. You should always do that! (One of my favourite bits of “Sound like...” too!)
I just wanted to write the same.
It's always fun to see the selection....
Plus who doesn't love drooling at stacks of gear?
Agreed! This was a great addition!
Definitely the sort of shop to be walking round with someone else's credit card.
Yeah I noticed they've kind of begun to abbreviate the "shopping" in the Sounds like... videos which kinda makes me sad.
Robs got a great set of ears on him.
Let's Talk About Math Rock seriously. huge strength.
Yeah - it almost freaks me out how good he is.
great set of eyes too
Well, with amps, it's a big "feel" thing as well, but I agree. His ears are damn good.
Marshalls tend to have a certain feel to them as well. And the katana is probably the easiest to identify because of the way SS amps feel
More proof that Chappers is a genius. Hearing him describe the sounds from each amp was similar to hearing a seasoned wine connoisseur describe the individual flavors of different wines.
Love it.
Agreed!!
Rob could hear a moth fart from 200 yards.
Then tell you what breed it is and what it ate the night before lol
Lmaoo
The googly eyes got me. I can't stop laughing while looking at Chappers.
there is nothing in this world that is not made infinitely better with the addition of googly eyes XD
Contrary to common belief in both the Hi-Fi and the guitar communities, then there is no such thing as copyright when it comes to electronic circuits. Electronic schematics are considered to be 'technical configurations' and as such are covered by patents, which - if granted - have a maximum validity of 20 years. Additionally, as Lee correctly speculates, then there is such a huge body of electronics knowledge out there, that it is nearly impossible to create a truly new and unique amplifier schematic these days. Practically none of the major guitar amp manufacturers have ever held patents on amp technology itself, not even back in the day. That is because even by the standards of the early 1950'ties a guitar amp is a very simple schematic, which has way too many commonalities with even regular broadcast radio receivers of the day to be patentable. There were 'side patents' though, for instance relating to tremolo circuits (eg. Leo Fender), and - IIRC - the technology behind string reverb.
TL;DR: Yes, you are allowed to make and sell a 1:1 electric copy of a Marshall amp. Any relevant patent will have expired decades ago. You just cannot call it a Marshall due to trademark law, which is a completely different kettle of fish.
There is nothing to debate here, nor anything to disagree on. We are not setting any standards here, regardless of oratory arguments.
You _can not_ - under any circumstances- use copyright claims to achieve a monopoly on making a piece of machinery or technology. We have patents for this with a fixed, maximum duration of 20 years. For instance exact PCB layouts are essential to the workings of many electronics circuits, in particular high frequency radio and radar. Thus PCB layouts are not covered by copyright, because if they were, you could achieve a de facto patent on a given functionality by claiming copyright on one.
I posted more on the PCB layout issue in a different subthread of this video.
The schematic files themselves are protected by copyright but not what they depict, the actual, physical circuit. Photographing or drawing a working, physical machine is not equivalent to achieving a monopoly on making it, even if you do have automatic copyright of your photo/drawing.
Software, in the form of firmware, is covered by copyright, as this copyright does not prevent somebody else from programming a similar or identical functionality, given that there are many -possibly infinite - ways to program a given functionality.
The end.
Copyrights are for creative works, like songs. Patents are for sciencey things like circuits or medicines. There are requirements for the newness and originality to receive protections. Trademarks are for brand names like Marshall and Fender.
Maybe Fender also thought about that. A Bassman provided the "inspiration" for the Marshall plexis. What did Mesa boogie do actually in their early years? Basically, there's a couple of "original" amp designs, all the rest are "updates", most of them for the worst...
This comment should probably be pinned to the top, I assume it's the most sought after info in the comments section after watching this video.
Thx for this, makes all the sense. Of course, if you made (for example) a plexi again (precisely, exactly), you'd probably be unable to make ti cheaply enough, or sell enough without the logo anyway, so there's little need for legal protection anyway.
For some reason I like the white board and hand-written text. It is better than adding the text later on footage.
You should do a "Guess which Marshall" and just have the whole range. Origin, JCM800, JVM, Jubilee etc :D
I'll do you one better.
"guess which Marshall simulation" with six Marshall Code 50 amps
Rob would probably just nail that like a hammer
That would have been way better than this challenge
Yjm...
I'm not sure maybe the jcm800 and the jubilee but the other two have a very different tone
I particularly liked the way Rob played through the amps, especially the Egnater, with the clear intention to be able to notice those details which can let you understand what you're playing: decay of the notes, behavior with double stops (intermodulation), response to strong attack, palm muting to define the low end character, etc. The descriptions he gave were also spot on! Those are aspects which an inexperienced player probably cannot catch/doesn't know, so if it wasn't Rob playing, we would all probably have had even less possibilities to guess what amp was playing! Very nice job!
Rob might be the most analytical guitarist on the planet.
OMG!.. Rob just nails it every time. For this challenge, I thought.. He's not going to hear the difference... And he still did. He has really trained ears. Well done once again, Rob 👍😁
robot chapman
I love how you're starting the video in the store, please do it more often:)
It astounds me how well Rob does in these challenges. Every damn time. He was dead on accurate throughout this one too. Amazing. Hats off to him.
The googly eyes are literally the greatest addition to the blindfold challenge. I could not stop laughing.
Rob's ears are great. The Victory sounded amazing.
Please get bigger googly eyes for next time 😁
And maybe angry or funny eyebrows.
Those vintage style marshall cabs look so cool
And the Les Paul, of course, won't stay in tune
That's too bad cause I got a $200 Chibson Gold Top that stays in tune no matter how hard I beat on it.
I love les Paul’s but hate the tuning stability.
They can't cut nuts except for the custom shops
The Sheriff 44 is absolutely gorgeous in this video, I love it above all of them!
of all the blindfold challenges (which, as we all know, is officially the best thing on the internet), ampifier shootouts are my favourites!
That's just me, tho...
The jubilee just kicks ass... what a great amp even after all these years.
about the copyright thing, amps and pedals are alike. You can patent a part (like a printed circuit board) but you can not copyricht a schematic. So if you take a schematic and make an own designed pcb you are good to go (even if the pcb has exactly the same parts and function, as long as it is not a copy)
Arne Seys unless your not a copy reads on a claim of a patented circuit. I suspect the Marshall patents on these original amps expired years ago though, so that’s all public domain at this point.
Wasn't the original Marshall a crib from the Fender Bassman? I read somewhere.
sorry to ask but is a schematic like the layout of the electronics inside or what is it? IDK much about electronics
@@JLchevz a schematic is the electrical concept. The layout of is the fysical place the components take on the pcb. You can easily change the layout and the thraces on the pcb. This means the pcb is not the same as the original and so you outrun copyrights
Jorge Chávez a Schematic is the plan you would refer to, if you were robbing a bank. The insides of electrical items are referred to as Gubbins.
The jubilee and the sheriff sounded AMAZING
Rob has stupidly good ears, very impressive!
Another great blindfold video guys!
I'm geeking out so hard over this video. I'm so happy with my mini jubilee head through a 1960av cab.
Really like the start with The Captain picking out the selections for the video, and why he chose them. It's one of my favourite bits of other Anderton's videos too!
That means, if you want the Marshall sound, simply get a Marshall
Especially the Silver Jubilee.. best amp they’ve ever made IMO
I really wish they would do a modern amp with real JTM45 tone; everyone has a JCM800 tone but a great Plexi tone is really hard to find
Me too! The Original series is not even close, too thin sounding.
I never tried one but I will listen to a few videos on TH-cam
Andrew - Check out the Park P45; It's pretty much a JTM45 upgraded with some modern parts from what I understand.
Rob is basically the Rainman of guitar
This is the happiest I've felt all day! Thanks both for the vids you do
Thanks for doing all the amps together at the end. It made the amount of low end in the victory really stand out.
Actually you can turn the noise gate off in katana with your pc pluged in, it's in main window of tone studio, button NS (between EQ and S/R)
My Katana 50 didn't have it enabled out of the box, had to do that myself...
Jonas Clément out of curiosity, which version of firmware are you running?
Indeed....................... plus the editing on the preset wasn't even close. :-(
If this video existed 300 years ago it would end with Rob being burned as a witch. There is something metaphysical and slightly evil about his ability to do things I can't do :) Another absolutely awesome video. Thanks for sharing it with us!!
If this video existed 300 years ago, it would be burned for being witchcraft because video did not exist 300 years ago.
I say, we all fly over to Malta and commence the Witch trial.
I just want to say that I really appreciate the long videos, thanks guys.
If Pete's pick isn't a pick of pickled pepper, I'm going home.
I'd pickle Pete's pepper any day of the week and twice on Sundays
Beautiful!
what if it's a peck of pickled peppers?
Legend says that Rob can tell the age of a string by smelling it
Superb video, and Marshall's mojo is distinctly marshall, can not be copied, well done
This is some of the best musical review type content on youtube. Plus Rob is freaking killing it. Amazing ears.
Good watch thanks for putting this together.
Boy, I loved the Marshall, it sounded just perfect with that LP. Although, the Victory and the Friedman sounded really good
Thought the Friedman sounded the best
I thought the Friedman was smoother sounding, but honestly I would be happy with any of these amps. Something for any budget and no need to compromise sonicly if you can't afford the Friedman. Even the Katana was great, although none of these digital amps seem to be able to get rid of the solid state edginess to the tone, which I believe is down to the power amps used, I would love to hear a Katana DSP feeding a good tube power amp.
Wow, dude. Good job!
Aside from the Noise gate, the Boska Tonner hung in there with some pretty stiff (and expensive) competition. I'm kinda shocked.
12:27 "U kno wot!" The most British thing I've ever heard Rob say. Much love from the US
Damn!! Nailed it on the solid state! Nailed it on the Friedman being expensive, nailed the EVH begging to be pushed but was dialed back! Guy is just flat out legit!
Chappers is some kind of savant!
It would have been fun to mix in the Bluguitar Amp1. Thomas Blug is a vintage Marshall freak. Fun show!
I loved that you put the picking process in the video.
Loved the settings show at the end
I keep waiting for Rob to blink his "eyes".
Chappers is such a good player he can make listening to an out of tune guitar for 30+ minutes bearable.
Well played Rob, nicely done! Thanks guys...
The 2555 is my favorite sounding of all Marshalls honestly. SO GOOD
I want to see this but with a Marshall amp, a Kemper, a Headrush or Helix into a cab, BIAS head etc...
Andertons don't stock BIAS heads anymore I don't think. They've done several "can you tell a Kemper profile from the real amp" challenges too.
Rob's knowledge and hearing amazes me !!!???
Are you asking us if it amazes you?
Hey guys! I love your channel and I just wanted to say thank you for making these videos I love the blindfold challenges your content always makes my day better
Great video. Again shows Rob knows his stuff incredible able to detect so much about them despite not being too disimiliar
and lets all be honest the Marshall sounded the best
jebusgod yeah definitely! Best amp they’ve ever made to my ears.
I actually kind of preferred the runt
Was thinking the same, Jordo, Friedman was my favorite, followed by the Marshall then Victory.
Yes, but some of those were pretty close.
@@numberfive3323 Same. Really great tone from that. Part of what makes those older marshalls is the lack of refinement and how raw and unforgiving they are but Dave made the right improvements without taking away too much of that old school mojo.
You should've had at least two other Marshalls there... if only for the lols. Origin 20 and DSL something vs the Silver Jubilee. Maybe also a few "Marshalls-in-a-box" in front of a HRD. And of course a Guv'nor pedal too. =D
Supremely entertaining video, gents! And Rob's ear is amazing! Well done!
That Marshall sounds incredible
Yes, do it with Fender amps with a blindfolded Captain Lee or,this is what I would like to see/hear, Pete doing the same thing with clean amps.
Lee
What mic(s) are you using in these videos at the moment?
Cheers
Loved the intro! Great to see some background on the main video.
I'm playing my first gig tomorrow with my Mini jubilee and I have no worries about tone. Its amazing.
Next blindfold challenge... “play with my Balls” Which Music Man is which?
We've got the biggest BALLS OF THEM ALL!!!!
Rob looks like Sid from Ice Age, i can't stop laughing
I love it when you two do the show
I know people have said this before but the editing is choice hilarious and that look on Captains while Chappers is experimenting is priceless!! Best guitar channel ever!
The man knows his gear
Listen to all of them here: 29:30
Rob, I couldn't beat you.
Good work Rob, impressive work dude
Great video gentlemen, loved it!
Should have used 5 Kemper profiles and 1 Marshall
Or all kemper profiles...........LOL
6 different jubilees tweaked a little bit.
"Can I have just a little bit more gain?"
"Of course you can! God, it's good to have you back, Rob."
😂😂😂
Rob is un-be-lievable. I am just watching those challenges for Lee's face when Rob - again - hits the nail on the head.
Well done, Chappers!
That was fun to watch. I'm 57 years old and started playing when I was 15. I play rock using a stock 70's era Strat and Marshall. The Marsh, 5150, and Boogie were gimmes. The digital stuff is getting pretty good these days but I totally agree with there being 'tactile' differences. I couldn't brand them but I know they are digital. Marshall has that fierce presence and cleans up nicely when you lighten up or roll off...nothing quite like it.
You should have used a line 6 spider
No one should ever use a line 6 spider.
Totally agree.
Bwahahahah!
Maybe you should've added Blackstar (because the ISF feature) and maybe Orange
Man.....a blackstar would have been nice.
Another cool blindfold challenge would be "which amp best does early van halen?". The blackstar might actually fool chappers.....if that's even possible.
Orange definitely have a little bit of unique sound going on, especially the distortion. For Rob it would take roughly two seconds to recognise that it would be an Orange amp, and knowing Rob he could also probably say what exact model it was.
Orange sounds nothing like a Marshall, he would've noticed straight away
@@Icepacalapse So like a Sounds like Van Halen? Been hoping for that one since day one.
Or the yamaha thr 100 hd
I think it would be cool if you introduced all the equipment as you did here every time. its cool to see the thought process to try to trick Chappers. Love the videos guys!!! Much love from the US!!!
I said so many times you need an Ampete switcher for those videos, finally my words have been listened to!
slightly off topic, can we get a SG styled Chapman?? I want to throw money at Chapman Guitars but really want an SG.
Lmao throw the money at Gibson since they're bankrupt.
@@maks-hg2yq honestly Gibson SGs are great and all, but if I was to buy an SG right now, I'd buy a Jaydee (though I still wouldn't buy one, since I'm kind of broke right now)
I honestly don't like SGs in general. A good Les Paul 58-59 for me.
@@maks-hg2yq for me its almost the exact opposite. While I don't hate Les Pauls, I prefer SGs in just about any case
HimTortons Interesting how that works.
Mooer PreAmp live demo would be neat!
When Lee looks straight at the camera I can’t help being reminded of a surprised owl.
Love the vids like this, keep em comin!!
i was wondering why you never use the blackstar id tvp amps?
Fantastic amps!
Totally agree. Wouldn’t swap mine
Or the yamaha thr 100 hd .
There's nothing quite like waking up in the morning to Rob's googly eyes.
Eeuuww. Are you sure about that?
You wake up to that?
Gotta admit, that EVH sounds nice!
Great videos guys!
I'm so glad Rob instantly spotted the Katana. A while back, I took a lot of flack on TH-cam for saying under a Katana video that I'd tried one and didn't like it. I mean people didn't just tell me I'm wrong. They stalked my channel to downvote everything I'd posted and even subscribed so they could downvote me in the future. All because I (politely but firmly) said I didn't like an amp. I had pointed out in that conversation that maybe the Katana did what these other people wanted better but didn't suite my own needs and tastes. Well, I tend to play medium gain Marshalls! Rob just showed that the Katana can't nail the medium gain Marshall sound. So that makes me feel a little better that I'm not nuts. I'm sure there are some things the Katana is great at, because a lot of people like them. For what and how I play in the bands I'm in, I just need an amp that can do medium gain Marshall. Boss' Katana doesn't do that style well. Therefore, for me, it's not a good amp.
Yeah people REALLY love their katana, but they really dont do it for me.
TBH what he picked out on the katana was the built in noise gate.
A true victim. Praise to the hero of the internet, CaptPostmod. May he live in peace until the end of internet time.
That Sebastian guy nailed a jtm45 tone with a katana, so it can be done. But the feel of SS amps is just not the same. I'm sure the noise gate didn't do it any favors either
I took one back. Digital amps tend to trick my ears for about 10 mins then it all falls away is what I've decided.
Axe-FX 3, Helix and Kemper also should be in blind compare. :D
The Kemper can be pretty though to point out as being a Kemper
I think it’s funny how axe fx seems to have to put out completely new devices every so often. Axe fx. Axe ultra, axe fx 2, axe fx 2 XL now axe fx 3. Lol and Kemper has been the exact same unit since the beginning and still sounds the most authentic. I understand there are software and profiler updates along the way, but they keep the same physical unit instead of baiting you to spend another 3k like fractal does.
Really enjoyed this one!
Just wow! Rob, you are amazing.
You should always play short medley of clips of each amp/guitar/whatever you've blindfoldedly (is that a word?) tested :)
hey hey hey... le French? That's my unfunny thing... well... le fine, you can le borrow it!
It's a very strange mix of parallel dimensions and alternate realities to see you comment on an Andertons video. Big fan of your videos!
Lee does this a lot as well. He has relatives from France. I believe his Grand Mother...
Grüße aus Berlin nach Hirschhausen :)
les animaux à la fin
As soon as I read the title I was like hey wtf guys, that's not your gag :p
Very le generous of vous.
Liked that you are running through the Equipment in The beginning !
Rob was totally amazing here ! Awesome job bro ..... golden ears ..... experienced talented player ..... A1+ ... This gentleman REALLY knows his stuff .
Rob's rocking that Kuwaiti fishmongers look rather well.
Pete, get a string butler for your LP. It will rock your world.
Really enjoyed this video I completely agreed with Rob on the amps. Also loved how you said you missed rob. You two are inseparable you got a good thing going don't mess it up, we need rob and chappers. I watch you guys more than anyone else. Thank you gents
I just love your videos. Keep doing them till you die.
