This video sets the standards on how to demo an amp. Different guitars, different settings, straight into the amp, with no added effects. Well done!

0:32 playing “My Heroine” by Silverstein. made me smile :)

Tobey is one of the greatest heroes in the guitar community. He serves these delicious and absolutely over the top reviews for years now and he does not even have a six digit subscriber count. Tobey, we love you but we don’t deserve you.

Great demo dude. Ive never wanted a marshall. Til this one.

Awesome review man ❤❤❤

Thank you for adding the white dot in the amp settings visuals.

This Amp Rocks, awesome demo!!! Best investment I've ever made. 👌

0:31 Silverstein - My Heroine👌

It sounds phenomenal in my origin 2x12a cab loaded with a 25watt g12m greenback and a 30w g12h anniversary. Greenback sitting at the top. Can check ny channel doing a comparison of the origin 50, studio vintage and studio jtm. Its using raw phons mic.

Silverstein! Yesssss

Now we need a comparison with the origin 20 and studio classic!

Hey Toby, if you have the time in your schedule, would you PLEASE consider doing a comparison video of this amp vs the Laney Studio Supergroup head??

I miss your videos dude, get well soon

Wtf?! Those tones are straight nasty!! Like crunchy dirty nasty 😎 sounds so damn good.

Another fantastic demo! You always demo the important aspects of an amp with very consistent playing. Since you've played both, which do you personally like more, the Studio JTM or the Studio Plexi? I find it perplexing that Marshal chose the 65M Creamback to have in the cabs for the Studio JTM. You'd think they would have gone with the Greenback for comparable wattage, tone and more vintage correctness. At least the combo version of the Studio JTM has a 12 inch speaker not a 10 inch like the Plexi and JCM800 combos have. I never understood that!

@TobysGuitarGearDemos

11 ай бұрын

Thanks. Yea I agree on the Creamback. A Greenback would work better as the Cream has a lot of low end and JTMs are quite bassy. I don’t know if they are concerned that a 25W speaker couldn’t take 20W if it was cranked all the time so went with the cream to be safe. Between the JTM and Studio Vintage I prefer the SV. The SV breaks up earlier and has more treble so I like it better for rhythm distorted guitar 👍

@markn4526

You may be right. I tried a pair of Creamback 65M's in a 2x12 closed back cab to use with a couple different Marshall amps as a higher power-handling Greenback alternative and I didn't like them. The bass sounded really big, but weird to me and I couldn't get the kind of highs I'm used to with Greenbacks. They're also a little more scooped or have a shifted midrange, i.e. less vocal-sounding. They might be better in an open back cab though. I was told by "Dr. Decibel" from Celestion that Greenbacks can handle more power than what they're rated at. Exactly how much more...I don't know.

@markn4526

Just one more thing...a lot of what people recognize as the classic, vintage Marshall sound is coming from a speaker(s) being driven hard (distorting) like from lower wattage Greenbacks. I think it would be very interesting to compare the sound of the Studio JTM amp from a stock ST212 cab with Creambacks and the same cab replaced with Greenbacks. Keep up the great work!

Some nice sounds there tho I'm not sure of PCB mounted valves and controls, my old 79 Marshall mk 11 master vol combos gave decades of trouble free gigging, but then those Marshall MG amps have their controls PCB mounted too.

Hello Toby, your videos are very good! The Creamback sound great! How will they get along with the OR15? good comparison... or also the SV20H against the OR15 with Creambacks... interesting. Which one do you like the most? Greetings from Argentina!

@TobysGuitarGearDemos

7 ай бұрын

Hey, thanks. The Creambacks have more bass than the V30s I usually use. I think V30s work better with Orange amps. The OR15 is fat sounding and the V30s help it cut through. The Studio Vintage would probably work well with the Creambacks as it's quite a bright amp. Of those 3 amps the OR15 + SV20 are my favourite. The SV is the classic Marshall drive sound but like the JTM it needs for volume for distortion. The OR15 is very Orangy and fat but versatile and it can be played at bedroom volumes 👍

@PeterDad60 The real JTM 45 can use KT66s (what I have in mine), 5881s, or EL34s, but to swap even a new set of KT66s in, you have to know how to bias an amp. On Ceriatone clones like mine, it’s really simple, but on the Studio line, apparently you can just swap in other tubes because they’re cathode biased. I don’t know for sure if that’s true though, but that would be a nice feature.

Hell no. I used to have an Origin 20, which most people say is a lot closer to a JTM than a Plexi and I’d agree, although I have more JTM experience than Plexi, and even on .3 watts it was too loud to turn above 5 or 6. Definitely get an attenuator.

Hmmm, when you showed the drive pedal and played ariels it sounded very tight, yet when i chuck and distortion in front on my jtm is sounds very flubby and muddy, any thoughts as go why?

@TobysGuitarGearDemos

I found it depends a lot on the pedal. That Bognor La Grange pedal I used has so many controls that it can be tailored to most amps. Before I used the Bognor with the JTM I tried a Fulltone OCD clone and didn’t like how it sounded. There are a lot of bands using drives infront of JTMs for their main sound so I’m guessing it just depends on the pedal. There’s a video on KZread of Luke Caley from Press To Meco talking about using the JTM 30W as a pedal platform. Also when I was setting it up I spent a while playing with the volume levels on the JTM with the drive on. You can change the way the pedal feels / sags by changing the volume on the amp 👍

Yes! I had one of these HB attenuators it was £60. It did the job but reduced the high end a lot. I’ve recently got a Two Notes Captor X and the attenuator that is much better sounding (although it only has 2 attenuation levels). So yes it could be the attenuator causing this.

Love this amp but the price is insane in the US when I can get a Friedman Little Sister for less, handwired from a boutique brand.

@watersnortmoment3734

You can also get a Wangs handwired Plexi, or a Ceriatone JTM clone, with the clones, you at least get a tube rectifier, and they’re handwired from boutique brands as well. Ceriatone will even customize them for you, I got mine used, but it’s a JTM45 with a PPIMV meaning I can crank it without attenuation since it’s built in. Marshall is really bad about pricing in the US. They refuse to set up a distribution network over here, so they use places like Sweetwater as a middleman, which increases prices. It’s kind of sad because I like Marshall, but they’ve priced themselves completely out of the US market, since you can get handwired Friedmans, or actual JTM45 handwired clones for less.

Whats the difference between the SV20H and this amp? Looks different but is there tecnically something different? I tried to google it but my 15 minute research wasnt that successfull.

@TobysGuitarGearDemos

Very good question. The Jtm is cleaner and bassier than the Studio Vintage. You can get SV tones out of the JTM but you need to dime the treble and presence. Using single coils with the SV can be a bit overbearing in the high end. They sit really nice with the JTM 👍

Different output tubes 5881s in this new release versus EL34s in the SV20. Probably some minor variations to the circuit in line with the different output tubes. Overall, very similar amps.

@markn4526

11 ай бұрын

Yeah, the power tube type can make a big difference. Also I think the JTM is most likely using different filter caps so the tone controls are active in different frequency ranges. I think the JTM is classic Marshall tone with maybe 20% classic Fender tone injected in. I think it would have been really cool if Marshall had designed the Studio JTM with a tube rectifier like the JTM45. That would have separated it even more from the Studio Vintage which uses a SS rectifier. Maybe they felt that it would have too much sag at the lower wattage.

How loud is this beast compared to the SV20? It’s my understanding it’s a bit quieter and manageable at home levels.

If only Marshall could price the Studio series well in the United States. None of the studio series is in any way worth 1300 dollars. In Europe the prices are fair, 700 dollars is the market these amps should be in, and they are in Europe. However, for the price of these, you could buy a handwired clone, which will sound more like the original, and you actually get the tube sag the amp is known for with a tube rectifier. I just don’t see the point of buying one if you live in the United States.
