Why all the HATE for these classic guitar amps? GORILLA

Johan Segeborn 2026-09-30 | Why all the HATE for these classic guitar amps? GORILLA

Get at Full Natural Guitar Tone by reducing PHASE CANCELLATION!

Johan Segeborn 2024-05-18 | In this video I go through the annoying phenomenon of phase cancellation, you know when the sound waves from multiple speakers collide and cancel each other out. This usually results in a thin, tinny guitar tone. I go through a couple of method how avoid this and get a full, natural and spatially rich guitar sound.

I'm using a 2021 Marshall Studio Vintage SV20H with a 1970 Marshall 2x12 model 1972B with T1221 Celestion Pulsonic Greenbacks. The guitar is a 1973 Gibson Les Paul Custom

Your PRESENCE knob isnt as innocent as it seems....

Johan Segeborn 2024-05-15 | In this video I investigate the influence of presence on your Marhall or Fender Amp. I realize I have vastly underestimated it's influence. Treaked right it can really sound like fundamentally different amps! I'm using a 2021 Marshall Studio Vintage SV20H and a 2021 Fender Telecaster Custom Shop 1960 Relic!

A Marshall Full Stack gets SCHOOLED by a LEMMY Full Stack!

Johan Segeborn 2024-05-13 | I'm comparing a Marshall 100W Full Stack to a BRUTAL Lemmy Marshall Full Stack, which means that the bottom cab is a 4x15 instead of a 4x12! I'm using a 1973 Gibson Les Paul Custom and a 1974 Gibson Grabber bass (you'd be surprised how much Rickenbacker this one sounds)

How much Marshall do you need? SV20 or 1987 or even 1959!?

Johan Segeborn 2024-05-11 | In this video I compare the the three versions of the classic JMP line that Marshall currently offers in their product line up:

100W Marshall Super Lead (Model 1959SLP) The current one is HW though
50W Marshall 50W Lead (Model 1987X)
20W Marshall Studion Vintage SV20H

I'm playing all three amps through a 1971 Marshall 1960A and B Full stack, using a 1973 Gibson Les Paul Custom and a 2021 Fender Custom Shop telecaster 1960 Relic.

Can a Marshall Studio Vintage 20W Drive a FULL STACK?

Johan Segeborn 2024-05-08 | I'm playing a Marshall Studio Vintage SV20H 20W head through a 1971 Marshall Full Stack consisting a two Marshall 1960A and B 4x12 speaker cabinets. I'm investigating how loud this rig is and whether it can keep up with a drummer. I'm playing it with a 1973 Gibson Les Paul Custom.

So, is a Marshall Wall MEANINGLESS or the ULTIMATE tone?

Johan Segeborn 2024-05-06 | In this video I'm playing a Marshall WALL consisting of three JMP Full Stacks, so 24 Speakers! Many bands had Marshall walls on stage but often only one amp was actually plugged in, so it was mostly for looks. Many people prefer to record with smaller setups, so in this video we're finding out if you can actually capture a Marshall wall in a recording or if it's mainly for looks.

Gear:
1971 Marshall JMP Super Lead with
1971 Marshall 1960A
1972 Marshall 1960B

The Creedence Clearwater Revival TUCK & ROLL Amp BLEW US AWAY!

Johan Segeborn 2024-05-04 | We are playing an amazing early 1970s Kustom K150-8 Tuck and Roll Amp. This amp produces so many classic instantly recognizable tones! And it's actually completely solid state!! It's a 4x10 combo using CTS Alnico speakers. Simon Karlsson is playing a 1969 Fender Stratocaster and I'm playing a Gibson Custom Shope 1974 Les Paul Custom Reissue.

Fender Vibrolux Reverb Comparison - Blackface Vs Silverface

Johan Segeborn 2024-04-29 | I'm comparing two original vintage Fender Vibrolux Reverb Combos: 1966 Blackface Vs 1973 Silverface. I'm playing them using a 1973 Gibson Les Paul Custom. I play the amps using their own cabs but I also play both amps through the same 1972 Marshall 1960B Cab with Celestion Greenbacks G12M25 75Hz Greenbacks with Pulsonic cones.

I Finally did the Great Supro Thunderbolt Reissue Justice!!

Peavey Bandit RED Stripe - Ridiculous Bang for the Buck!!

Johan Segeborn 2024-04-22 | I'm playing an early 2000s Peavey Bandit Transtube series II also known as "Red Stripe". This is an 80-100W solid state amp and it sounds just like so many of my favorite 1970s tones. I'm playing it using a 1969 Gibson SG Special (P90s), a 1973 Gibson Les Paul Custom (Humbuckers) and a 2021 Fender Telecaster 1960CS Relic (Single coils).

Getting the HUGE 1977 Kiss Guitar tone with a SMALL COMBO!

Johan Segeborn 2024-04-08 | Finally a combo that sounds like a complete 4x12 rig! I'm getting a tone very close to the one Kiss had on their 1977 Alive 2 Album. I'm using a 1961 Silvertone 1472 1x12 with a 1973 Celestion G12M25 75Hz Pulsonic Greenback in it with a 1973 Gibson Les Paul Custom with a 1977 Dimarzio Super distortion in the bridge.

The BRUTAL Terry JTM Marshall Amp! THOR AMP!

Johan Segeborn 2024-03-25 | This a super rare early 1970s tube guitar amp built by Terry Marshall, the son of Jim Marshall and the 'T' in JTM. I sounds like a JTM to me, wonderful. I'm playin g it through a 1972 Marshall 1960B with T1221 G12M Greenbacks with Pulsonic cones using a 1973 Gibson Les Paul Custom with a 1977 DiMarzio Super distortion ion the bridge.

The Influential Kiss - Eddie Kramer Signal Chain

Johan Segeborn 2024-03-18 | In this video I'm investigating how Eddie Kramer and Kiss in 1975 created the classic extreme, bright and gainy lead tone that later inspired Eddie Van Halen and Slash to create their signature sounds. I'm discussing which role guitars, pickups, amps, speakers, mics, compressor, EQ and all other factors may likely have contributed. I'm futhermore making expirements to investigate if the guitars were recorded through a 4x12 or a 1x12, whether they used Greenbacks or Blackbacks, what role pedals (EHX LPB-1) played and what desk EQ that was applied.

The SABBATH Greenback VS the ZEPPELIN Greenback

Johan Segeborn 2024-03-10 | In this video I compare the rather unusual Greenback version that Tony Iommi of Black Sabbath used in the 1970s; the T1976 G12H30 75Hz to one of the standard Greenback models; a T1281 G12H30 55Hz that was used by Jimmy Page, Jimi Hendrix, Kiss and many more!

So T1976 vs T1281!

Gear:
1971 Celestion G12H30 55Hz T1281
1972 Celestion G12H30 75Hz T1976

Johan Segeborn 2024-02-28 | I'm demoing a wonderful Silvertone Model 1472 guitar amp from 1961 using a 1973 Gibson Les Paul Custom. These amps were built for Sears by Danelectro and there still really affordable.

Orange Dual Terror NAILS Many Classic Rock Tones!

Johan Segeborn 2024-02-19 | Orange's lunchbox amp Dual Terror sounds like a million buck through this 1971 Marshall 1960A 4x12 Cabinbet. I'm playing it with a 1973 Gibson Les Paul Custom. Recording signal paths: Close mic Unidyne 548 into LA610 Preamp into 1176 rev F compressor. Room mic AKG C414BXLII into API 312 Preamp into 1176 rev H compressor.

The Marshall MG100FX is a great amp IF you tweak it like THIS!

Johan Segeborn 2024-02-12 | In this video I explain how I tweak a Marshall MG100FX to make it sound great! I'm playing a 2010 Marshall MG100FX 2x12 Combo using a 1973 Gibson Les Paul Custom.

Marshalls Best Solid State Amp? | Model 5010 | Nails so many classics!

Johan Segeborn 2024-01-05 | The Marshall Master Lead Combo model 5010 is the solid state version of the JCM800 model 4010 combo which is the combo version of the 2204. This is an amazing amp. It may not sound like the amp it's meant to emulate but it does so many other classic vintage tones beautifully. Today I'm playing an early 1985 Marshall model 5010 with a 1969 Gibson SG Special, a 2021 Fender Telecaster CS 1960 Aged and a 2008 Gibson Les Paul R9.

David Gilmour Speakers | FANE Crescendo PULSONIC 12 vs 15

Johan Segeborn 2024-01-01 | I'm comparing two versions of Fane Crescendos with Pulsonic cones from 1973; the 12" version and the 15" version. David Gilmour used the 12" version in his WEM Starfinder cabs. The purpose of this video is to determine if you get close to that tone also with the 15" version. I'm playing the speakers with a 1981 Hiwatt DR103 and a 1973 Fender Stratocaster and a 2008 Gibson Les Paul R9.

Marshall JCM800 vs JMP | Super Lead Comparison

Johan Segeborn 2023-12-29 | I bet some of you didn't know that Marshall kept producing Super Lead and Super Bass also throughout the 1980s in the JCM800 series. Today I'm comaring a 1987 Marshall JCM800 Super Lead to a 1976 Marshall JMP Super Lead to determine if they still had the tone in the 1980s! I'm using a 2008 Gibson Les Paul R9 and a 1971 Marshall 4x12 model 1960A with the stock Celestion G12M25 75Hz Greenbacks with Pulsonic cones.

Marshall Baby Bluesbreaker is a COPY of this MASTERPIECE!

Johan Segeborn 2023-12-15 | I'm playing a 2023 Magnatone Twilighter Mono 22W guitar combo using a 1975 Gibson Flying V and I'm loving it. This amp and speaker holds up to any vintage american sounding combo ever. I've played many vintage Magnatones which I have loved, you can find them if you browse the channel.

Johan Segeborn 2023-12-07 | I compare the two most classic Gibson SG versions in this video: SG Standard and SG Special. Standard is the classic AC/DC guitar and Special is the classic Black Sabbath and the Who guitar. They are much more different than you may think! And both have instantly recognizable tones!

Johan Segeborn 2023-12-05 | I'm comparing a 1956 Heppner 12" Guitar speaker tomaybe the most classic Fender Tweed style guitar speaker of all time: 1960 Jensen P12N. The Heppner speakers are still affordable and arguably the best bang for the buck today. I'm putting both speakers in Marshall model 1933 1x12 cabinets, and play them with a 2023 Tone King Royalist Mk3 and a 2013 Gibson SG Standard Aged custom shop.

Johan Segeborn 2023-10-24 | I'm playing and comparing the three series of JBL guitar 12" speakers; The D-series (until 1973), the K-series (1974-1979), the E-series (1979-1980s). These are mind blowing speakers way to expensive to build and sell today. The speakers are:
D120F (8 Ohm), Alnico, 35-100W
K120 (4 Ohm), Alnico, 150W
E120 (8 Ohm), Ceramic, 300W

I'm using a Gibson Les Paul 1959 Standard Reissue and a Fender 60 CS Relic Telecaster though a ToneKing Royalist MkIII. The cab is a Marshall JCM800 4010 (only cabinet).
