At a recent gig, I played my SV20H through a 1933 style 1x12 loaded with a G12-65. I was floored at how good it sounded... It's making me rethink my live rig going forward! Merry Christmas Johan!
Wow! That thing sounds way bigger than it is. It's got the growl, the bottom end, and still has nice articulation that's very useable. If I was listening blindfolded I would bet money I was hearing a much bigger amp. One with at least 2 10s or 12s. Great find.👍🏼
That's one of the best tones I've heard from you, and you get great tones all the time. I have the SV20 head, running through a 4X12 cab (but only two speakers connected). I have a 2x10 cab somewhere, I'll have to get it hooked up and see how it sounds. Love that SG too, those 70's DiMarzios are very ballsy.
I've been listening to tons of "Ride the lightning" lately and you should look up the history of the "French-made Marshall" they found while in Europe that they used to record the tracks. I guess James also reluctantly used a TS9 to boost it! Great job, Johan!
They went the danish import of Marshall in Copenhagen and borrowed a ton of amps from them. Chose the one(s) they liked. Haven’t heard of a “french” Marshall? What was that?
Sometimes I wonder what Lightning would have sounded like, had James' amp not been stolen. I grew up just outside Boston and never knew until about 15 years ago that the club they were supposed to play that night was The Channel. We used to hear ads for it all the time on the radio in the 80s.
@@finishin.my.coffee8780 I think the first record has a great sound too and I think he was pushing the front end with a pro co rat as a kind of clean-ish boost. That's so cool about The Channel! We never know when we're living through history.
Indeed they feel very firm and dynamic to play. It is like driving a responsive go cart. A full stack feels like driving a fully loaded truck that’s about to fall over in comparison
I've owned this combo for acoupla years now. It's tricky to dial in but once you find the sweet spot( very loud) it's a keeper. Merry Christmas Johan to you and yours.
Well, sounds pretty huge through my car speakers anyways haha. Tons of oomph for a 1x10! Love the greenback sound in this one too. Thanks for the vid Johan!
Thanks for this nice present 🎁 from you, Johan! You really made that 10" greenback shine, but I bet the very specific settings you found out were a big part of the secret sauce 😉 Merry Christmas! 🌲
Hats off to you Johan, for always bringing out the best tone from any gear! You're correct though, Marshall seems to still be able to design great amps, and they are often good at selecting the right speaker. Shout-out to Boss as well. They have a range of pedals that work really well with Marshalls. Did the sound in the room match the recording? God jul Johan!
Massive overtones Johan, love it! I also liked the reliced pedal. It is curious that it as has 10" speaker in it because I think the Studio JTM combo has 12" speaker (I have the head which is amazing), A great Christmas to you and for family and thanks for a fantastic 2024!
I think the stock V-type jr sounds awsome in my sv20c. The V-type has even become one of my favourite Celestions. Would be cool the hear a comparison in this combo since the GB also sounds soo good!Merry xmas
@@DanTheDiggler It is very nice. I had a Creamback, 12 inch that I sold because I'm broke but I tested it and thought it was very nice. Greenback is iffy, though the 10 inch has 5 W more handling capability. G12M65 has enough rating for 20 W. But the V Type is very nice. A little more fizzy than the Creamback. Also 12 inch speaker fits. Bottom baffle needs a cut.
I have the JTM Studio Head, with the JTM 112 (Creamback Ms). I really love it. Such a warm, characterful amp. It's more manageable at lower volumes than these Plexis. Love the glassy cleans with a Strat on neck pickup and a Pedal Pawn Fuzz in front. So much that my next amp will probably either be the SV20H head, OR the Wangs equivalant. I have an Orange Rocker 30, which is awesome for metal too, and nice cleans. But I NEED a Plexi with a closed back cab and a cab with mix of good Greenbacks & V30s in my life. More for hard rock and cranked blues. The Rocker & Plexi would probably blend really nicely. Because the Orange has the low end volume for days. And the Marshall is bitey and incisive as hell.
The sv20c comes stock with a v-type 10" speaker. At least mine did, thoman says v-type too. Though it sounds way better with a greenback. Id dial some of that normal channel too
@@JohanSegeborn Nevertheless a great video! I have a 212 cab and I use the combo as a head. I tried a vintage30 paired with a greenback or a 70th anniversary with the greenback. Which combination would you prefer?
@@dannyturner7967 I use the mid power setting usually; the lowest setting is low enough for conversation, even with the master high... Like my other MV Marshalls, I run the master at 8+ to get the power amp hot, and it's important to do that on the Origin 50 IMO. You also have JTM clean headroom with the 50 if you run it at full power, and lower the master...and it takes pedals well. So I think it's more versatile than the Origin 20...but most of my amps are 100W or more, and I play loud.
Yes the origin 50 with the earliest late 70s early 80s Celestion G12 M 65 watt 16 ohm pair in open back Your favorite boost pedal works well with strats and Gibson!@@JohanSegeborn
Johan, I have been looking a perhaps purchasing this small amp for the past few months. This was an excellent sample of various sounds by the SV20C. I noted that you did not cross patch the amps channels with jumper cables. Perhaps even greater tones from this small amp? I would wish you and your family a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Cheers!
Yeah, but the distortion pedal kan help out smoothing some of it out. Fizzieness is a tricky concept. Great distorted are always on the verge of sounding bad to me
When mine was still in it's combo shell I always disliked the speaker. For recording its pretty great as we can hear here, but in the room it just felt way too dark. Only when it was tilted up at my face did I like it.
Still waiting for a video on g12S 20w speaker with clean sounds on a 1x12" 15-20w combos. and while you are at it, include maybe a. 5e3 amp along with few marshalls 💪🙏 merry christmas!
I personally prefer the head version, nevertheless have returned it and replaced it with a DSL-20 instead. Rocks more for me, is more flexibly adjustable and gives me exactly the hotter sounds, which I do not get out of my still beloved JMP-1 preamp without additional pedals. Apart form this, the VT-Junior speaker is underrated in my opinion, if it comes to 10" speakers. For my taste better than the Ten-30, more balanced than the 10" Greenback and not as thin sounding as a a V10. But, if I use 10" speakers, a 210 closed back cabinet would be my choice. For an open back I preferred a G10-45 Creamback, but it sounds a little different than the rest, alone because of the comparably much more intense bass. The other thing is, the SV-20 (like every other Plexi) is capable of perfectly well compensating all these speaker differences perfectly well (channel blending plus tone and presence controls) with different settings, so for me the speakers are not really the essential component for the sound.
That last remark is actually a good idea for an experiment and a video. I’m afraid I differ in opinion there, but it would be interesting to see how close they get with amp EQ compensation. And the EQ on a plexi influences the character of the tone as well.
@@JohanSegeborn Great idea! The amp will not compensate everything, but if you do, you maybe could also use some Jensen speakers in direct comparison, or even some different ones. My personal favorites would be Oxford, EV-SRO, Jensen Silverbird 10" or 12", Jensen P10R or P10R-F, EVM-12L or Celestion Sidewinder and of course some 10" Celestions. Some sound similar, others not at all. But, if you make such a video, with some of these speakers, in my opinion it made sense, to present a setting with the exactly same and one with the - for the speakers - optimized settings, as they in this case really can vary a lot. And with it you get your eq compensation experiment in it too, but also the neutral version.
Cool, I have many of those. I did a couple of similar videos earlier on where I measured the EQ difference between a Greenback and a V30 and a vintage Greenback, and then used EQ compensation in post to match them. If I remember correctly some of those EQ curves where quite dramatic with very narrow Q factors in the 6k region for instance. Check them out here if you want. th-cam.com/video/Ek41b4XB3uk/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/4rWKZKJi0OU/w-d-xo.html Cheers
@@JohanSegeborn tuve este amplificador, lo conecté a una caja 2x12 con celestion vintage 30 y suena realmente bien, con el parlante v-type a máximo volumen se caga a pedos
The SV20 combo, to me, seems like a better built, more historically accurate version of the Class 5. Judging solely from online demos, the SV20 sounds slightly better than the Class 5. I owned 3 Class 5's...a head and two combos...and the SV20 sounds just a bit more like the original 70s Marshalls. The Class 5 was very bass-heavy and had sort of a farty overdrive, whereas the SV seems to have more harmonics. I owned the combo version of the Studio Classic as well and it was pretty tame without an overdrive pedal.
they should have speaker options for that....because I would pull out the speaker and put in an alnico Celestion G10 Gold ( it's louder, for one thing ) well, personally, I would rather the studio JTM because it has a 12", and I like the beam power tube sound.
Thats how my old DS-1 looks. Scuffed to buggery! 😅 Mine is an 80s one, guessing you're is from the same period by the black screw and silver sticker by the power in.
@@JohanSegeborn you should get a new one to see how the sound has changed in the old one. I bought a new one and its waaaay more fizzy and toppy. I wanted to preserve the old one as much as possible
Stop it bro. They got way to many 1x options that do high gain way better then this. This amp has a shitty eq section with the fact that the amount of gain is mehhhh and has to rely on pedals ( OD Boost EQ ) to get any kind of tight usable tone. For the price it's trash. The old ENGL 1x12 from the 2010s can be bought for 500ish really active eq and tight out the gate and don't need pedals but take them well. Same as the Orange 1x whatevers. Turn the pedal off and show us the usable tones you can get with this amp.....
Yeah 1x12 is better suited than 1x10 for metal that was the premise of the video. Let me which other 1x10 combos you think would do a better job than this one and I’ll compare them.
@JohanSegeborn not per say a 1x10 just single speaker amps. The older ENGL lines like the screamer are great. Orange makes a few good options. Both solidstate and tube. Older Randall RG series 1x12s are great but kinda like the Marshall very dependent on pedals to do the heavy lifting. But honestly the PRS archon 50 1x12 is a killer amp that Flys under the radar. It has the wattage to push a 4x12 but come in a small 1x12 combo that on its own throws down. My complaint with Marshall is this, there are sooo many amp builders that do the Marshall thing but better. From Splawn, Friedman, to some mom and pop builders all over the world. If that many builders are taking your circuits and making loads of money off it but you still won't budge and give us what we want. The DSL TSL was from the early 2000s. There last attempt at furthering the Marshall sound. Let's face it most metal guys want a tight high gain 2203 2204 style amp with some bells and whistles.
You always put out the best content Johan. I enjoy learning about these vintage and modern Marshalls.
Thanks, I’m really you like it!
I've been using my marshall origin 20 with a DS1 for ages. The SD 1 is great, too. I've used a tube screamer to boost the DS1 for a modern metal tone.
Cool!
I boost a Rat with a tubescreamer :) Would love a DS1 though it sounds good.
I boost my Origin with a MkI Guv'nor tks to Johan!
Wow. Great job as always Johan. Would like to see more of this combo from the channel. Thanks.
Thanks! Glad you liked it! Maybe we can make shootout between 10” speakers with it

@JohanSegeborn not per say a 1x10 just single speaker amps. The older ENGL lines like the screamer are great. Orange makes a few good options. Both solidstate and tube. Older Randall RG series 1x12s are great but kinda like the Marshall very dependent on pedals to do the heavy lifting. But honestly the PRS archon 50 1x12 is a killer amp that Flys under the radar. It has the wattage to push a 4x12 but come in a small 1x12 combo that on its own throws down. My complaint with Marshall is this, there are sooo many amp builders that do the Marshall thing but better. From Splawn, Friedman, to some mom and pop builders all over the world. If that many builders are taking your circuits and making loads of money off it but you still won't budge and give us what we want. The DSL TSL was from the early 2000s. There last attempt at furthering the Marshall sound. Let's face it most metal guys want a tight high gain 2203 2204 style amp with some bells and whistles.
