Thanks for the kind words! It’s hard to capture these amps as an amateur. The crunch circuit does the clarity and dynamic bright side of things while the se adds the low end thump to tie everything together.
Would love to see how the CAE compares to Pete & meat, seems like the dookie mod is the same thing with 1 or 2 values changed. Always wondered if the CAE is just a rehoused Pete & meat with an added 3rd channel
So from what Suhr explained to me, channel one is a fender blackface clean tone, channel two was inspired by the crunch circuit, and the lead channel is inspired by the se lead circuit. Overall pretty similar. I’m sure the power amp plays a bit of deal in the tone as well. If you use a 6l6 power amp probably will sound more like a mesa, but a plexi power amp like how Green Day runs them will sound more like the amps I’d assume.
Running both into one 1960BV. I found the SE100 is a bit smoother than the modded Marshall. They’re more or less the same circuit, but the different transformers must play a good bit of difference.
@@johnp.3225 the Marshall cab has a stereo switch that runs two speakers at 8 ohms each. A company called radial also makes a pedal that you can run two heads into one cab, but I haven’t used that product before.
Would be interesting to hear how close a wall of 5-6 hard panned dts from just the Martin Golub Crunch mod amp sounds in comparison to the isolated dookie gtr sound. Bet it would be identical..
The crunch mod is the Dookie amp 100%. A sm57 &md421 slammed with a compressor nails the tone 100%. Really only need 4 tracks total to get the beefy tracks.
@@jimmykrutakofficial294 I no longer have a md421, but I’ve been focusing heavily on the American idiot guitar tone, including all the post editing. I plan on doing a video in the coming weeks with my guitar sound from that album. I’m sure I could do something similar with the Dookie album after that.
@@jacobgainor5219Hey man, long time fan. American Idiot tone is 80% SE Lead Mod + LP Jr. Cab loaded with Greenbacks i think. There was a magazine article where Rob Cavallo shared some details…can’t find it anymore.
@@jacobgainor5219The Dookie Mod wasn’t used as heavily on American Idiot too. In Heart like a Hand Grenade Billie said the guitars sounded “tame”…thinking cause the dookie head is smoother.
Very interesting, great work, mate. Just curious: 1-The heads are chained directly one to another (for increasing EQ and gain) or did you use some kind of ABY box for running the 2 heads at the same time but independly one from another? 2- How these 4 G12 Vintage speakers can handle 200w from the 2 heads? Thanks for your attention, mate.
Nope. No room for the se mod as that adds a 4th preamp tube. The SV and sc 20 line isn’t really great for modding as is because the circuit boards are quite tight and busy. They also don’t have the ass that 100 watt amps have. I had a 50 watt crunch modded amp and it was a bit flat and flabby compared to the 100 watt version I have. Best bet is to order custom built heads from Suhr with the crunch and lead circuit. Everywhere else that offers “Dookie mods” just don’t sound right, so to me the only logical thing to do is order from the creator who is John Suhr.
This is incredible and my dream tone. Would be awesome if you could make that video showing the isolated individual amps
Absolutely perfect tone
Yes! This is the sound. Been looking high and low for a decent demo. The right amount of scratchy grit on the top and low rumbling in the bottom end.

I was just going to ask what the difference was between the SE Lead MOD and the Crunch MOD
This is the best demo on TH-cam! And both modded by Golub! Gonna have to build an SE Lead Mod soon
This is genuinely the best i think i've ever seen on youtube, keep it up yo
Thanks for the kind words. Been working after this tone for almost 10 years.
Thats some time well spent brotha@@jacobgainor5219
Hey, fantastic job! Have you considered capturing this awesome tone as a Kemper profile? Every guitarist would be in your debt forever! 😀
Don’t own a kemper sorry.
Perfect!! nailed that tone..
excellent job and Thank you as always share demo Like this

Holy crap that is pretty freakin accurate, especially when you layered the guitars

I love this this is actually perfect
Do u think 2 modded sv20h could get there too?
It’ll be cheaper hahaa and smaller
perfect 👋
Thanks!
Very well done.
Thanks Mel. The SE Lead amp is kicking ass!
Sweet mate...not many youtube people have gotten so close :-P
Awesome! Are you running these through two separate cabs? Also, does the Golub SE Lead sound different from the SE100?
Running both into one 1960BV. I found the SE100 is a bit smoother than the modded Marshall. They’re more or less the same circuit, but the different transformers must play a good bit of difference.
How to make 2 heads run in just 1 cab?
@@johnp.3225 the Marshall cab has a stereo switch that runs two speakers at 8 ohms each. A company called radial also makes a pedal that you can run two heads into one cab, but I haven’t used that product before.
Ok. But running 2 Marshall 100 watt heads in 1 cabinet with 4 Celestion V30s wouldnt blow these speakers?

This is so perfect!
What speaker cab is it?
Gear list is at the beginning of the video.
Would be interesting to know if you think it would be possible to recreate this with the Studio Vintage heads?

@@jacobgainor5219 yeah that makes sense with the smaller heads.
Oh, does Suhr have a crush/dookie amp as well? SE100 sounds great!
@@williamsoderlund1404not in production, but he will do the crunch circuit inside a SL68.
What G12 vintage speakers are in there though..?
Marshall G12 Vintages.
