Marshall Class 5 Clean Tone - Fender Strat Custom Shop 54 Pickups

[leuthaluca]

Hey man, you REALLY KICK AZZ!!!!!!!

[kleydj13]

Great playing man, how would you compare the cleans on the Class 5 to other low powered amps? Fender Champ?

[Gitaryzt85]

I have the combo and the head. I love these amps. My main amp is a Two Rock Studio Pro 22, but I probably use my Class 5 head 75% of the time for home playing AND gigging.

[jashobbsie]

another great demo! i love these amps...awesome for recording use as well...cheers! great playing!

[DavidPercan]

Hey, pretty damn sweet playing! Is that a alder or ash body?

Got my strat in to be changed for these puppies:)

Strat on=)

[jpthomps1]

@DavidPercan Alder I imagine - just a standard mexi.

[Philtration]

Really nice.

I have been thinking of putting the 54's in my MIM Strat and this just made up my mind.

Thanks.

[zrouth]

where's the amp volume at/ where's the guitar volume at? Sounds silky btw, nice playing!

[bosscollector]

Very impressive playing and feel. The combination you are using produces a great tone. Nice to hear someone that can PLAY. It just goes to show you that the majority of it is in your fingers. You don't have to have a $3000 amp to sound great. Well done.

[MemorymanDL]

Even with the Verbzilla's horrible buffer this still sounds amazing.

I'm beginning to want this amp more and more.

[zrouth]

God this thing destroys the Super Champ

[sjirk]

well this is a video that will do the class 5 justice!!! thanks very much!

[gc241]

really? Like them better than 10'S. I have 9.5's on my now and looking to change.

[gc241]

Nice! What guage strings are you useing on that?

[jpthomps1]

@gc241 11's

[dontthnk2]

Great tone, great playing, great video!

[dheck311]

Great Video! Thanks for taking the time to make it. You sold me on this amp. I've been shopping for a long time and this video sealed up the deal for me as I use a similar guitar and setup and you and I obviously agree on tone (it should sound like a warm hug). Great playing, great tone, and awesome feel man. I like your pick/finger-picking technique. As we speak I'm nailing down the run you do at 1:08...Love it!

[ZKDanika]

how loud is the class 5 marshall through a 4x12 ?

[jpthomps1]

@TheGrantCave Canon 7D

[ZKDanika]

was the white class 5 a limited edition ?

[jpthomps1]

@ZKDanika Not sure how 'limited' but yes I think it was.

[MrAmbassadeurs]

This amp is sufficient for play with a piano and bass in a little lounge? (sorry ny english)

[jpthomps1]

@MrAmbassadeurs I might be, unless the Piano player is really hammering away. Dont expect much headroom though, but the 5 watts is suprising loud.

[SingSai22]

great playing!

can you tell me the exact settings of the amp and did you turn the guitar down?

thanks

[jpthomps1]

@SingSai22 Cant remember exactly, most likely Bass on really lows, mids and highs dimed. Half volume. Guitar on full volume.

[Psposer]

Wow! That is some gorgeously creamy playing!

[WeeklyIntegrate]

what camera did u shoot this with? sound awesome too

[jpthomps1]

@WeeklyIntegrate Canon 7D. Thanks.

[roccckkerrr]

how does the class 5 take pedals?

[jpthomps1]

@roccckkerrr Only used a reverb pedal with it.

[asieret]

Nice and usefull review. THX

[Iamcmac08]

Is this a rosewood or ebony fretboard? I really enjoyed your playing. I'm modding my Strat the exact same way, just waiting on my '54s to come in!

[jpthomps1]

@Iamcmac08 Its rosewood, but very dark. This particular strat was really dark and the bright 54's seem a perfect compliment.

[LADA878]

Awesome playing

[RedHouseStrat]

Awesome playing.

That Strat is great, I can't get my eyes off of it.

Very nice sounding amp, how much did it cost?

[jpthomps1]

@RedHouseStrat Thanks! I paid $299 new, normally $399 USD

[jeba189]

Wow this sound really nice.

Can you get such a nice sound without an external cabinet aswell?

[jpthomps1]

@jeba189 The stock speaker sounds pretty good (mine is not broken in yet), but through the ext cab and Red Fang it sounds glorius.

[davo171]

I also love my CS54s into my Class 5.

Blues, country, rock, pop. All in there.

[PonchoGreg]

Really sweet playing mate. The Class 5 sounds really nice clean with a bit of reverb!
