- Three knobs and the truth. The easy to dial in controls and creamy tones of the Spitfire work super well for both classic and modern sounds. Driven by one 12AX7, simplistic in design but with a wide range of function and tone. The creamy tone of the Spitfire perfectly galvanizes the bridge pickup sound for both classic and modern rock sounds.
Like all Matchless amplifiers, the Spitfire is hand made, point to point wired and tough as nails. User controls are Volume, Tone, and Master Volume.

Black hole sun ❤
That cover of Black Hole Sun gave me chills. That little amp has tone for miles! Amazing playing as well dude \m/
Thanks so much for checking out the video!
your playing is the best. this is whats missing in today’s guitar music, depth rhythm and chord melodies not just riffing and shred
Thanks so much. Appreciate the kind words.
Thanks for posting this. Awesome sounds, great playing!
Simplicity and purity…🙏🏾. That little row of pedals on the shelf look on in envy….
The fact that you're a fan of Royale and you played some of their material makes you even cooler. Not a single bad video from you, hellyeah.
Also that jag
This video convinced me to buy a Spitfire two weeks ago. It is freaking amazing. Zach, great job making these amp demos my dude. The highest quality on TH-cam. I love the way you play actual songs to feature what the product is truly about. You are also an ace when it comes to recording guitar amps. There really is nothing else like it. 10 out of 10.
That Les Paul is straight fire.
After blasting "Wide" earlier today, and now watching this, it's already been a great day!
Awesome! Thanks so much for checking them out!
Man, I love the tones you get out of these amps! Superb as usual.
Man that jazz master is fucking killer!!!
Japanese limited edition
YES! I've been waiting for another demo from you! I love 'em Zach! You are such a well versed player.
Sometimes less is more, such as the case is with this amp. And that loop at the end... Amazing! Always look forward to a new demo from your channel.
Zack, really enjoyable, as always. That Matchless is sweet! Your riff choices are sublime and thanks for giving Band Royale/Joel some love. Thanks.
Wow! This amp loves this les paul. Sounds amazing!
beautiful way to show off the amp. very good sound, both in your fingers and your recording technique.
Another great demo. Great playing, really nice wide varying music choices, and the best thing, its not overly produced/processed/EQ'd, etc.... The sounds you hear sound like what you could expect playing in your home (if I had his chops).
The clean tones are straight up righteous, and so’s the playing
surprisingly great playing, wasn't expecting that in a demo ;)!
This is one amp I have never had the desire to sell....so rich and perfect sounding
Wonderful sound and demo. Really impressive.
Fantastic as always
That. That is the sound I have in my head. I've been hunting for this exact sound. Wow ❤️❤️❤️ Great playing too!
Update: Came home with a Ceriatone Lightning. A worthy consolation prize.
My god that final loop😍😍😍amazing!! I loved it💯
Thanks so much Valerio! That's a tune called "Stranger Things" by The Band Royale. Definitely worth checking out. Thanks for watching!
Absolutely incredible playing and tones.
Thanks so much Billy!
That fender is awesome!!
Perhaps my favourite title for a clip ever. Top marks. Stellar playing and a refreshing blend of familiar and quirky riffs. Subscribed!
Thanks so much! Appreciate the kind words.
I just wanna say I recently upgraded to good studio monitors and a bigass 32 inch screen, so your videos look and sound even better than I thought with my old headset. Still one of my favorite channels ever.
Thanks so much, that's awesome. I'm working off of a 27" iMac with the retina display so I always think videos look great in fullscreen but definitely realize that most people are watching on a phone. Always happy to see another studio monitor / big display person out there!
Great video, as always!
your restraint, tone and taste are verrrry rare these days - really enjoyed your clip - thx!
Thanks so much. Appreciate the kind words!
I could listen all day
Finally found a demo that does this justice. Nice playing!
Thanks so much! Appreciate it.
Great demo
I liked the demo of the wide variety of tones available from the Amp. I use an HX Stomp without external Amps. It's nice to hear a real Amp to provide a basis for "tone matching" on my Modeler. Thanks
I find your lack of Opeth disturbing. Always tasty riffs and tone. Keep 'em coming!
Beautiful voxy sound 😍
Riffs for days. What a babe! Plus that loop tho
Thanks Zach!
Extra 👍🏻 for the Sisters-shirt!
I absolutely love this, I promise myself I will be as good as you one day, I absolutely love the tone and the way you convey your art. Absolutely stellar, I'm so motivated by this. In a year I'll come back and I will hopefully have progressed farther. What an inspiration, much love my dude!
That's awesome. Thanks so much for watching and best of luck in the journey!
How’s it going..?
I´d love to own the Fender Jazzmaster Guitar! Looks AMAZING!
Always amazing 🖤
Thanks so much João!
Dude that jazz master is sick!
Awesome tone for a minimal amp 🎸🤘🏻
Seems like simple is better with amps. The best stuff is stripped down and doesn't give you a lot to fiddle with imo. I'd be lost with a mesa mk v, take me 45 minutes just to dial it in.
Beautiful man.........enjoyable playing. Thanks for choosing this amp to demo.......I've been on low watt El-84 pilgrimage lol........Holy shit look at the huge transformers on that thing?.......wow. I suspect having the correct cab & speaker helped to bring out the intended/best sounds.
I love my Spitfire and my 30/15!
My ears thank you.
That teenage wrist riff though
I vote YES to Zach as Teenage Wrist's second guitar player.
that jazzmaster is nice bro
Please get a Phoenix 35 from Matchless to demo! The El-34 and EF86 combo is something else!
Always excellent videos from you, Zach! If you can get your hands on a HIWATT head, I'd absolutely love to see what you'd do with it.
Thanks so much! I love Hiwatt amps, so if I come across one again, I'll definitely make a video with it.
@@ZachWish Thanks, Zach, really appreciate it!
Killer playing! What guitar stand handles all those guitars and basses?
Wooow superb tones! Les Paul sounds very open! What year is this?
holy smokes you make that thing sing man. Are they paying you for these? Because they're making me wanna buy something I definitely can't afford.
Need to know what picks are in that Les Paul. Wow
What Jazzmaster is that? It looks incredible!
I love that Jazzmaster so much. Are they worth it?
Zach,please review a Redplate Classic Overdrive .
Great cover of Black Hole Sun.
Thanks for checking out the video Andrew!
@@ZachWish rad amp and video. Noice!
Omg howd u get that MIJ Jazzmaster?
Sounds so good! I wish they did this in a 50 watts format
Check out the 30/15. It’s this amp, but much much louder and tighter. The transformers are bigger than most 50 watt amps too!
You really don't need anything louder than a DC30 or a chieftain, 30 watts can be a lot. An AC30 with blues will just about keep up with a Plexi into greenbacks.
Where can one download / buy Adam Meisterhans arrangement of Black Hole Sun? Excellently played. Awesome tone.
Unfortunately I don't think there's a recorded out there that I'm aware of. He's a great player / buddy of mine and saw him play that rendition and it was awesome. He's in a great band called Rozwell Kid as well. Thanks so much for checking out the video!
Dear Zach... speechless Nuno here... again... Christ... You can shutdown this YT channel now.. impossible to do better that this.. from the magnificent entrance till the end.. My god!! I'm going to sell all my stuff and call it off.. Just wish I live near so you can teach me all your fantastic talent, sensibility and musicality you have inside... AWESOME again! Keep it up mate! Cheers cheers cheers! Nuno :)
Hah! Thanks so much for the kind words Nuno. Appreciate it!
Hello. Great video. I’m seriously considering getting a Spitfire, but I play mostly at home (a gig here and there)and I’m concerned that it might be too loud. How good is the master volume? Can you dial nice tones at reasonable, non gig volumes?
If you dont mind me asking, what pickups are in the aerodyne?? Love the sound, got to get me one! Your demo made me pull the trigger on a spitfire!
Pretty sure they are the stock Fender pickups in the Aerodyne. Not sure what model pickups though. And congrats on the Spitfire, definitely a cool amp. Thanks for watching!
Would been cool if ya talked about it a little...spent the whole vid trying to figure out what the third knob controls lol sounds good tho!!
I loved all your guitars through this amp but I think the Tele is a match made in heaven! What speakers are in the cab?
Thanks! Celestion G12H30 and Celestion 12M Greenback.
So besides having less controls/no reverb, how does this differ sonically from the Lightning? From what I can tell they’re almost the same
Just wow. What is that green Fender? Killer guitar and tone.
Thanks! It's a Fender Made in Japan Modern Jazzmaster. Made a video about that guitar here if you're interested! th-cam.com/video/74tKgBMAxwg/w-d-xo.html
What speakers are in your ESD cab? Looks like they used to load the ESD with G12H-30 & G12M-25.........but currently load them with the Creamback versions.
Yeah Black Cow ❤
That's a beautiful Jazzmaster - so clean looking without the pickguard! Is it a custom built model?
th-cam.com/video/74tKgBMAxwg/w-d-xo.html 👍
Chords inspired by Billie “My Future” 👍🏻
What song is that at 6:15? Love this.
Sounds awesome! Is the cab open or closed back and what type of speaker?
Open back cab. Check out the specs here. Thanks! www.matchlessamplifiers.com/amplifiers-and-cabinets/esd212
Ha the Ole lp custom balancing act nice
Do you know where I could look up this cover of black hole sun for tabs
This amp seems to love hummy-bucks.
Rumble?? Yayayayayay Baybay
Maybe a brief commentary on specs bc Im lazy.
What happened to the Road Worn 50s Tele?! :O
Just wanted a pink one. Tonally not really all that different. Both great guitars. Thanks for watching!
That green offset Fender sounded killer. I don't like PAF style humbuckers but that was nice and chimey. I'm guessing the amp helps with that?
I find this guitar to be pretty chimey in general. Pretty low output pickups which tends to help things sound clear. Thanks for checking out the video!
@@ZachWish I really like that tone. Well done.
what is that les paul model??
Do you have the tabs for that soundgarden arrangement? I went through that instagram link and couldn't find it.
What pickups are in that LP? BBs?
Any drive pedals used’ straight in?
Anyone know the song at 2:57?
This vs an AC10? 👀
Hey man I got a question for you I’d appreciate any insight on. So you’re obviously a big fan of the be100 and the ss100. Well I’ve been waiting for over a month now to get a be100 deluxe and an ss100 has popped up I’m coming from the be50 deluxe so I’m wondering how you’d compare the ss100 to the BE sound and if it’ll be better or worse or how different it will be. Just any kind of comparison insight you may have I’d greatly appreciate man.
Hey Joey! They're both killer amps, so it'd be hard to go wrong with either. Not really a matter of better or worse. The BE-100 Deluxe is definitely the flagship for a reason in that you can basically coax the sound of most of the other Friedman heads out of it with all of the switching options and gain structure options. I really like the Smallbox Plexi channel as the "clean" channel of the BE-100 Deluxe. It's great sounding for pristine cleans up through AC/DC-ish levels of gain. The SS-100 is much more stripped down when compared to the Deluxe, but can still get plenty of different tones. I personally gravitate towards simpler amps but I could be happy with either. The SS-100 has a great, pristine Fender-ish clean channel that stays super clean even at really high volumes. I tend to like a little hair on the clean tone though, so I generally hit it with a subtle OD. When comparing the gain channels of both amps, the SS-100 has a tiny bit more low mid content to it to my ears but just by a hair but you could dial them pretty close to one another. They both have that chewy, easy to play vibe. I spend 95% of my time on the gain channel (channel 2) and don't have any of the tone shaping switches engaged. Having owned most of that lineup now over the years, all of the amps have their subtle little differences, so I definitely understand that feeling of wanting to make sure you get the right now (that's why I owned them all at one point or another haha). I will say that for the Friedman lineup, I prefer the 100W heads. But when it really comes down to it, in a mix or live, you can get them all pretty close to one another. If you're really into tweaking tones and getting maximum versatility, the BE-100 Deluxe is the way to go. If you're just into a straight up great distorted tone, any of them will do the trick. Hope that's helpful!
@@ZachWish thanks man! Yeah I waited it out and have the 100 deluxe now and man I’m glad I did! It kills the 50 deluxe in my opinion! And I also don’t really go for a pristine clean sound so I love the plexi channel as well. Man it definitely lives up to its reputation
This or the HC30?
Would you demo some of Tyler Amps?
If I ever got my hands on one, I'd be happy to. Thanks for checking out the video!
What model is that greenish hardtail Fender?
MIJ Fender Modern Jazzmaster HH - mystic ice blue
Yep! @Ricardo Estepa got it. Made in Japan Modern Jazzmaster. This one is in Jasper Olive Metallic. Thanks so much for checking out the video!
amazing sounds! What kind of fender guitar is that??
Thanks! Thats a Fender Made In Japan Modern Jazzmaster. Made a video about it here if you're interested: th-cam.com/video/74tKgBMAxwg/w-d-xo.html
KILLER Z!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Do you apply any eq post-mic?
I try to keep things pretty pure just to showcase an amp so there's just some subtle hi/lo passing that could be from anything but I'm using a Plugin Alliance SSL 4000 E channel strip, a bit of room reverb from Waves rVerb, and then some limiting with the FabFilter Pro-L to get the volume up to commercial volumes. TH-cam also does some normalization on the audio as well if it's not already within a certain range. I would treat the signal differently if I were putting guitars in a mix, but for just solo guitar, this seems to work for me. Thanks so much for checking out the video!
@@ZachWish Thanks for all the info! Is your room treated with sound absorbers/diffusers at all? I can't tell from the video.
Love the Black Hole Sun cover! What tuning was that? Could you give some tabs please?
That was just E-Standard. I don't have any tabs unfortunately. For what it's worth, I learned to play pretty much by ear and while it's a bunch more work and maybe a tad slower in the beginning, it pays off in the long run in terms of just picking stuff out by ear quickly. Also, whenever I do take a look at tabs nowadays, I find they're wrong more often than not. Thanks so much for watching Dennis!
@@ZachWish Thanks for the reply Zach!
@@ZachWish the tabs are always wrong. I kind of wish it weren't so easy for people to take shortcuts instead of using their ears
This is a horrible demo. I need to know how this amp sounds when a barely mediocre guitar player like me plays through the amp.
💀
Why would you need one?
@@scottbrown2383 wat
Hahahahaha
I never understood Matchless amps. They don't sound remarkably different from a Fender or Vox. IMO of course.
especially with such a full pedalboard in front of them ....
