As a long time viewer of YOUR content It's kinda crazy watching YOU grow and develop as guitar player going from fender amps and Telecaster to Gibson flying V and Marshall jcm800 ! Good for you !

Whoa...that's some righteous tone, man!! Nice demo!!

Really thinking about getting this amp. The 800's are my favorite. Sounds great Shane!

Excellent Guitar and Amplifier Match. Love the tones you're getting. That Cab Sounds great too!

Careful, Shane. Once you start running Gibsons through Marshalls, you might not want to play anything else! Great demo.

Truth told. The Marshall-Gibson match is as addicting as any good drug.

Man... One of the best tone of this amp.

love it. great review, shane. as always. i have the min jubilee in black with the fitted 2x12 and love it. but actually just the one channel of the 800 would do.

Oh yeah! THAT amp sounds amazing. The V looks good on you.

That sounds awesome. That amp is on my radar.

I tried the combo in a music store, it sounded great. The JCM800 has a master volume! of course it can be used as a practise amp! great tones at lowered volume !

I LOVE this amp. After years of using the likes of Mesa Boogie and a PRS MT15, it was a little brighter than what I was used to, but after a bit of tweaking, it's an AMAZING amp. It was only after I owned a Marshall when I realised those amps don't have that much gain and you kinda have to be a better player to use them well. Boost it with a decent overdrive and it absolutely sings! One thing to bear in mind is that Floyd Rose guitars can sound quite shrill through this amp, even with the presence and treble dialled way back, and noticed a decrease in distortion compared to another guitar with a stoptail bridge and a similar pickup. So I would advise maybe putting a brass block in the Floyd and choosing your pickup wisely in order for it to not sound that way. An Alnico Nailbomb by Bare Knuckle Pickup works really well in this case. Boosts the input as well as the midrange for more gain without sounding harsh.

Awesome review. Running a Laney L5 into a 16ohm Marshall C110 in my studio today, sounds killer...

I have a JCM 800 2203X which I love but it's so heavy to carry around. I've been thinking about getting one of these instead. Every clip i've checked out sounds just as good including this one. Great job!

Bloody Hell Shane I just bought one after watching your video. I Love it! I was gonna buy a PT20...you saves me half the cost and with my own name initial (JCM)

Great review, thank you very much!

Hey man that jcm800 sounds great, but I don't really like the speakers that comes in that mx212 cabinet even though I have the SAME cabinet I changed out the 7080 speakers for old old G12M35 speakers THAT just scream with my Marshalls and actually got GREAT results putting the 2 Celestion 7080 speakers into a fender Frontman 212R and now THAT amp sounds like a fender twin on the clean, vox ac30 on the mid drive and full Marshall distortion on the more drive channel out just screams now so I'm happy, glad you dig the new Gibson Marshall sounds😉

I have to share some results I got playing around with speakers and trying for different tones and I realized the only tone I can get with THOSE 7080 speakers is the slash afd tone which is a great tone so I kept a 7080 speaker on 16 ohm so could get that tone but the best Rock and blues tones I got were with higher end and old Celestion speaks or Eminence GB1258 speakers are GREAT and very affordable and pretty high power 50-75 Watts depending on which flavour of the GB Eminence you choose but I got one 12 sent to me door for under $50.00 by shopping around for the best deal + free shipping ! I know you are a tinker of sorts when it comes to your gear and STAGE set up so that's why I share my results, wish I had recordings of the Marshalls so you could hear the doggone difference between the raspy sizzle of the 7080 to the smoother more natural green back tones but to end THIS I must say the 7080 is a high power handler with its 80 watt stamp of approval no doubt has its purposes in high wattage cabinets but sound best in a 412 cab mixed with fuller darker speakers like GB or v30 but I don't like the tone alone on the 7080 , NEVER have, and yes this was before internet dissection of speakers and tubes😄🤣😆😉

I got one in Navy Levant (from Sky ;) ) and got the SV212 cab for it in the same colour. Brilliant amp. I was going to get the plexi but I like a master volume better. It does sound great without pedals but I put a Rat in front of mine. Cleans are very nice as well.

Great Marshall tones and tasty playing.

Great video my man 👍🏿

What’s not to love, that amp can do it all no matter your style of playing. Hope to see you gig with that set up

So it was between this amp and the Friedman Jerry Cantrell Jr. 20 watt. I would recommend checking it out as well. I decided on the Friedman and I don't regret it. Love this Marshall too.

Mate. That V, that Amp 👌🏻

I use it in my bedroom all the time. I have no problem whatsoever turning it down to "bedroom levels". It sill sounds fantastic too. I have the head version and run it through a Marshall 2x12 cabinet. I love the amp sooooooo much. I really don't need or want anything else. IT IS THAT GOOD. Especially with a Gibson Les Paul. I wouldn't do a straight trade for any boutique amp EVER. When you have the best, why mess with the rest?

Good review Shane, as always! Can you get that sound with the dsl?

if you could get your hands on a plexi studio, and even perhaps compare both, that would be beyond amazing!

Great sounding amp and V. Please get some hearing protection to use when playing loud! I have hearing damage from playing too loud. Never dreamed it could happen to me. 110+ dbs is very loud.

THE sound of RAWK! \m/

This amp has such miracles of tones lol

I need one of these... compare it to the Jackman!

That amp is a beast, to much for what I'm doing though. Thanks for the review

For anyone wondering this is a great “live/gigging” amp. It’s very bright as you can tell from this video but, having said that it works great in a live setting. Because you’re not fighting the bass players frequency and you’re cutting through the mix. It’s also extremely touch sensitive. I run a AC booster and or a morning glory in the front and ride my volume on my baja tele and I can get anywhere from heavy overdriven rhythm to sparkly/spanking country twang. It’s definitely an amp that you need to dial in but totally worth the time. Also to note I run the head into a 2x12 vertical cab with two celestion 70/80 speakers.

So far they haven't found any combination that sounds as good as the Marshall-Gibson marriage. Nothing so far even comes close. That's why that particular match is the preference of 90% of professional players.

Man, so many great tones coming out of this thing with little effort.. did you keep it?

I still like the 2x12 Bluesbreaker combos best but this is pretty sweet.

It is pretty trebley eh! Would cut through the mix really well! As you say, can compensate for that with EQ or tone control!

Would you take this amp or the mini Jubilee version and why? Been looking hard at this amp to replace the Peavey 6505 I cannot use in home.

I dig it!

I can see why you made a profile of that amp for the Kemper. Killer tone. I personally wouldn't use an overdrive pedal at all. It seemed to respond well with the volume control on the guitars. So maybe just a boost pedal is all you would need.

@@spada60 you are right. But ever since I got an all tube amp. I use an overdrive or a distortion pedal more like a volume boost for my main tone. Kinda like Stevie Ray Vaughan did with his tube screamer. I do use an overdrive for more gain and what not, and doing a clean boost is just what I am liking right now. That's why I like love playing guitar so much. There is a millions ways to get a tone and everyone has there own way

i have a dsl 40c with the stock 70/80 that i bought new for 399.00 . it is 40 watts 2 channel el 34 with reverb. Compared to this which is a great sounding amp i just cant justify the price. My amp sounds incredible as is. Live or in the studio so much can be done for tone do you really need to spend so much to achieve what can be done for so much less .

That's a really nice V. What model is it?

Great review, great tones. The Seventy 80s are fairly neutral sounding so you get a good idea of what the actual amp sounds like. I've found they seem to break up a little earlier than V30s or G12T 75. Be interesting to hear whether an attenuator would successfully tame it down a bit, or just ruin the tone.

Sounds soooo good! Cant wait to get mine! Very glad to know there crazy loud because I was slightly precautions my very hard hitting drummer would shroud me a bit aha

Can we able to connect it directly to the soundcard via DI out? Thanks

Thank you for showing the low gain tone. Most reviews just show screamer tones!

Hi Shane watching your videos for a while and like them ,I recently bought a Marshall SC20 head and a Peavey 2x12 cabinet ,just a little confused as to how to connect it up. the cab has a stereo /Mono switch on the back which reads 8 ohm in stereo,or 16 ohm in mono what connection do i use on the amp? the speakers are Green backs at 8 ohms each .you tested the amp ,and i loved it ,could you help a beginner guitarist out ,the shop told me connect to the 8 ohm out let ,i have switched it to MONO ,so which one do i connect to 16 ohm or 8 the manual is not much help ,keep up the good work ,thanks .

I’m pretty sure if you have the switch in mono use the 8 ohm output. The cab might be able to have two amps in stereo possibly. If you only hear one speaker in mono let me know but they should both work.

Sounded great! I think I would still pick the dsl20hr over it, just more versatility :). All depends what you’re looking for.

Love the fact you run the 70/80's in these reviews.

This video really demonstrated how a darn good musician can compensate for bad guitar pickups. In my humble opinion, there is no reason to keep ceramic pickups in the Mexico Standard Strat. I have one too, and after some years put Seymour Duncan SSL-1 into it. Never looked back. :) The highs are just so uncomfortable to me in Ceramic Standard ones...

Celestion 70/80s are bright speakers. You might have a different comment about amp’s brightness if cab was loaded w say Celestion G12H Anniversary speakers

I just want to see what people think and take sort of a poll. From what you have heard(or tried) of these two amps, what would you rather have for Punk Rock/Hard Rock in Studio, The JCM 800 Studio (or) the Silver Jubilee Studio??

Do these sound at least as big as the DSL40c?

dude, can you show me this lick that you always do? it's very cool here - 4:22

Hello, who would tell me this piece of music at the very beginning of the video? Thanks

It doesn’t need a cabinet speaker?

It’s worth it cause you have thought about it. I have own this amp and be it in the low or high output it rocks forever. Well of course this is boosted with pedals. Just simple pedals like a delay or reverb and any overdrive. Then you’re all set.

Too me some guitar player's for a lack of better words look awkward or uncomfortable playing the Flyin V guitar. Intheblues guy and his Flying V seems like a natural fit. Diggin the guitar more than the amp head.

It do sound real good, i hav an egnater that goes Down to 2watts,, still very loud, in a house or late at night no way .

Get rid of those 70/80 Celestions and I'll bet that amp would sound a LOT better/less harsh in the high end. Play it through some V30s or Greenbacks. But overall the 70/80 are a pretty crappy speaker. Most DSL40 owners I know, swap that speaker out right away for a V30 or a Greenback and are blown away at the difference in improvement.

The 5 watt mode is incredibly loud contrary to belief. I love mine. The 20 watt mode sounds much fuller than the 5 watt in person but both sound great 👍
