Marshall Class 5 - Full volume blues/rock jam!

[Mr1GingerBread1]

Nice vid :)

What is the Lefty doing at 6:33 ?

[jahjah67]

The amp is awesome and the licks are cool, but the guy on the right seems lost unless he's playing leads. He looked like he was at a complete loss at playing a supporting rhythm when the lefty is playing. Come On!!! Embarrassing!

[Rrracket]

@jahjah67 You're not fit to open his beer. Chappers is a Player and a great guy

[IAmTHEGoD0fHELLFIRE]

Ah pity guy on the left is a lefty, camera isn't placed right to see his finger work although have to say that was some stellar improvised jammin' from all involved.

[skatingisthebest14]

Man, when chappers does the first bend.... I get the shivers. He puts soul into that guitar.

[twentysix23]

wow.... I like It!! amazingly !!

[blitzedST]

I like the idea behind this amp and it sounds good too but its no bedroom amp its way to loud. wish Marshall and other companies would make a valve amp that can be used at real home volume levels clean and overdrive and with a 12" speaker they sound much fuller than a 10" IMO.

I have an AVT20 and if you use some the recommended settings such as the JCM 800 one its so loud as to be pointless, and bare in mind this is a solid state power amp with only a valve pre amp. wish I could play louder :(

[lokeshjatbhambhu]

lokesh jat

[bandslater]

You know that when you have to bend over to play your guitar, your strap is too low!!

[gewerh44]

This video is awesome, However I watched the vid cuz I wanted to hear a live performance using ONLY the Marshall Class 5, no overdrive pedals.

[BurndownBlue]

okay... these guys have fun... BUT WHEN DO GET TO HEAR THE FUCKIN' AMP???

[andrewkadar]

PIZZA!!!

[nine9live5]

omg!!!! I never thought this awesome day would come when i would see The monkey lord and Chris George jamming!! I just got an overdose of awesomeness by seeing the title!!

[pcgam3r666]

YESSSS. Its allways nice to see another lefty drummer <3

[noslen1968]

Great 'touch my monkey' moment at 6:50. I had an in/out put in for an attenuator - don't know how it was done, but it uses the 'speaker out' with an additional 'in' - works as normal when unplugged with no switching required.

[Pink11oyd]

anyone know what the bass set-up is on this, is it the vba 400 or the mb450h

sounds nice

[telmothesixgun]

chris wons

[bumxr]

DAYUM!!!! Rob gets down deep on those blues!!!

[Tennesseerebel1]

I gotta get one of those! That nails that old Cream tone!

[Saimenism]

both amazing guitarists, love it when they combine all those techniques with some good old blues!

[guitgeo]

Got to be the only band I've ever heard where the guitars aren't loud enough !!

[skatingisthebest14]

what a crappy applause for that friken sweet song!!!

[Ukabumba]

so is it loud enough to go against the drums ?

[TheGrandeMartini]

It's probably the WORST blues/rock i've ever heard. JEZUS this sucks big time!

[shckltnebay]

drums and bass are louder than the guitar.

[050296gareth]

chappers, could you connect this amp to a cab?

[defnist47]

@050296gareth "On the rear is an extension speaker 16-Ohm out, so you can run your Marshall Class 5 tube amp into a 4 x 12" cabinet."

[LeftHandedJay]

JESUS ! ! ! ! All I want is a Class 5 and a few stompboxes right now .

[BelloKrebs]

What's the point of this vid if they're both using distortion pedals?

[Pianoblacks]

@BelloKrebs why not, I rarely see anybody play live without pedals nowadays.

[pjxdudex]

is it normal that the marshall is trilling inside when its in a louder volume? sorry for my bad english

[fend14]

@pjxdudex hahaha trilling, you mean shaking/vibrating.

The speaker might be a little loose if it sounds like something's just loose (take off the sticker from the speaker and tighten the screw, if that doesn't fix it, tighten the screws that attach the speaker to the baffle), if it's just a rattle it might be the cab itself, which you can't fix easily.

[PhilipPorter]

Couldn`t the Chris Dude find a long guitar strap?

[StaulkHolm]

theyre 299 gbp? thats fuckin cheap.

[ByronWebb1]

that...... plain and simple is a fucking brilliant jam...... *FULL STOP.

[MrTomZombie]

dude would this amp be able to keep up with a full band like at small gig level... bigger gigs can just like mic it up and have no problems like but ive currently got a laney gh50l and im trying to shift it theres to much power there and i cant crank it but this thing i just wanna crank it and play so i get the full valve tone with a few pedals maybe what you think ?

[stratobiker]

@MrTomZombie - dude, yes it would. It's what I use. For a band practice, and for small gigs it will cope no problem. Where the problem is is in spread. It's just one speaker, and if you or someone stands in front of it they block your sound. For gigs I put a mic in front of it through the PA just to help the spread. It's a great amp, and the more I use it the more I like it. HTH SB

[AJS19]

How did you have you Class 5 and BOR set? What the Class 5 clean, and then you used the BOR for the gain to keep the volume in the place reasonable?

[Jimihendrix6699]

lol i like when rob has the fan tap

[vixo94]

Are you (guitarrist using any stomp boxes?

I'm really looking close to this little guy(marsshall) before i buy it...

[adam10603]

hey dudes you rock ! it was great

and the class5 is a great amp

and the chappers pizza rulez too ;)

[Dytex4]

10 people disliked this? swift backhand for you morons

[666jony666]

Its was more like a solo fight and monster Chappers won!!

[harrymosesgk]

FUCKING HELL! He has alot of piercings.

[MrBIOSkunk]

5:46 After Rob get's knocked down he engages Monkey Strength and pulls out some mightly crazy solo - friggin awesome!

[d3reilly]

is this amp basically (concept-wise) Fender's champ, but with the sound of a plexi?

Also, just my opinion put it seems like the Class 5s' aren't loud enough on the PA.....

[live2rock4u]

Great Artists, Great Jam, .......I have to get a Class5, what a wonderful little amp !!!

[asda6572]

Chris is actually a real awesome guitar player, i'm surprised he's not really famous.

[makingbeaners]

it's not that original

[Hughespipe]

amps aside, i love chris george's style, especially those soulful bluesy overbends that ive seen him do in a couple of vids

[bojon]

Hey Chappers! We miss you back at the Orange board, stop by and say hello why don't ya?! :) Great to see you're doing well. Chris is a truly talanted and tasteful player and seems like an easy going chap. Cheers!

[SilverSkyline92]

nice lil low down groove

[gargano3000]

just like hotel california

[Jacko11120]

Amazing...

I love those amps!

[fretboarder]

they seem like cool little amps but the thing about truning the amp up to get gain is a bit worrying since il only be using it in the house..

[spike0391]

@fretboarder same goes here, im using it in my bedroom and im a bit worried im gonna drive my parents nuts lol

[fretboarder]

what ever you do mate dont go saying that on the marshall preview video with this guy playing on it..the amp freaks will tear you a new one lol...yep thats the only thing putting me off buying one aswel..check out the blackstar ht-5.

[spike0391]

haha your the second person to tell me to try that amp. maybe ill swing down to a music store and test it out

[AntarcticanCommunist]

Overdrive pedal to push it a bit?

[darrenguitar]

just by a digetech bad monkey and lurn the level up and the gain down

[fretboarder]

but that means shelling out for more boxes..

[AGK972]

@fretboarder

I heard that you can connect the combo to a cab using the headphone out jack, and get a great built in attenuator.

[fretboarder]

yeah i seen that in a video here..only problem is then ive got shell out for a cab..if i was going to do that wouldnt it just be wiser to shell out for a better amp in the first place?? cheers..

[UltimateGuitarist17]

HAHAHA Robchappers wearing "Marshall Amplification". Well you know when hes wearing that he a proud convert!!!!!

[Fiarzen]

definitely sounds great!

although the blackheart handsome devil 15 watt combo is exactly the same price and seems to sound a little better...

[redbird963]

FUCK... I ordered one, but it's on backorder 'til 12/23/09 :(

[redbird963]

I CAN'T wait that long!

[gmlasam]

I know what you mean. It seems like Marshall is back logged on these babies and can't meet the demand in time. Seems like the whole world is waiting to get these Class 5. For those you have these amps already, consider yourselves lucky blokes. I hope I get mine before XMas. I can't believe Marshall wants $399 for these amps. Talk about getting more than what you paid for indeed.

[redbird963]

maybe a false demand?.... or people just jumping at the price

[Fiarzen]

that guy was crazy!

he did marshalls demo for class 5 aswell i think

[FaithGuitars]

That pizza needs more Cheese. Definitely not enough cheese.....

Great to see ML and our good friend Mr George having a battle...

Nice work guys.

[iseelh]

Good job, Rob ;-)

[hillysats]

Muhaha, the bass players facial expressions are hilarious, trying to avoid the camera at all times.

[spicbuddha]

A lot of calorie ingestion on that stage haha. dont worry Chappers, just had to take the piss... Make lefty Chapmans, I will buy one...

[mojo292]

Some filthy good licks in this jam! Two great players for sure.

[almostsk8er01]

wow chappers you smoked that guy! thats one tasty lookin' pizza. hut?

[davemis40]

I missed it too ... can I come for Pizza ?

[PGS412]

Great clip! Just watched it again & I gotta say seeing chappers on stage with Chris was tops.

[flvinny521]

Chappers, we really need to do something about your pizza selection haha! That looks awful!

[stratdude83]

sick jam!

[WheresMyCake]

Nathan looks like Steve Buscemi.

[dwg316]

what a jam chappers!!!! having fun are we????

[MonkeyZo0]

Great stuff.

Is that a Gibson Swamp Ash Studio Mark Trem...eh Chris George is playing?

[RobChappers]

No mate Chris play LAG guitars ;-)

[JaysalP]

@RobChappers oh, thought it was godin?

[Morethanl1f3]

what kind of drum beat is that swing, blues, jazz?

[jezus1989]

i don't like the crowd

common people it's the monkeylord in front of you loosen up!

i would have given my left nut if i could be there man

and ML : i would like to hear your thought on de DSL 100

thanks for the awesome vid

awesome as always!

[WedlakeMusic]

I was there and it was awsome. You cant do too much becuase it was a demo in a small room

[sabrakazama]

The crust on that pizza looks fuckin' delicious.

[PGS412]

Got a class 5 on order - can't wait til it gets in!

[HDWMusic]

I just bought a marshall guvnor pedal, ridiculously good value for money, like a jcm in a fucking box!!!!!

How would a class 5 sound with it? i tried it with a fender blues jr, tasty, but the class 5 definitely sounds+looks like a better amp...

[bigleemac]

Two top guitar players there, awesome stuff Rob!

[SwampAshSpecial]

damn thats nice!

[YellowFender]

i dident just buy A marshall how could anyone have just A marshall i got 3 :)

[SolarDeathRay]

Looks like Chris sold his hair to the devil.

[filipdinev1]

The playing was fine, but the pizza...

[Bluesrocknmetal]

Very nice i like chappers way of playing blues, do it more often dude :)

[DeathMetalDean]

That was like the best jam session ever xD niceeeeee

[benjthorn]

Class.

[Griffo2001]

Loving the feedbacky bendy shizzle you were doing :)

Yes, that is the technical term haha ;)

[byrnrob1]

I'm guessing you reeked of WIN at this clinic.

[satch60]

U rock man!!!!!!

[SixMoreReasons]

Im so anoyed! I really wanted to come see you on saturday cause i live real close to exeter but work wouldnt let me have the day off! I was contemplating ringing in sick but that would have been abit of a coincidence! at 8:07 the two girls on the right are on my music performance course that i would have gone with too! dammit!!! i could have met you in pizza hut! ARGH im not happy with work now! Are you going to the music live show at birmingham NEC 6-8th novemeber? if your not then reconsider!

[Darfuria]

Tell them they are the angriest couple I have ever seen in my life, and that they should smile. AND NOT TOUCH THE PRS PRIVATE STOCK.

haha

[lighteningboy]

The lefty is really good, man he hangs his guitar low!

[Sniddelwoods]

Damn.... that Chappers Pizza is awesome!

Watched that part about 5 times.... need one too! :(

[RobChappers]

Yeah mine doesn't really do that... but the cure for it is a Dunlop DD strap! It will grip your shoulder and keep it in place ;-)

[broomiester]

incredibly, extreemly, awesome  as always :D

[CollyStrings]

We finally get to see the genius live playing of the epic Mr. Rob Chapman!

[xxxEnterSandmanXxX]

lol so true!

[GibsonGuitarsForever]

wow man! awesome jam!

it would be so cool trading licks with you man!

[DaMcaAtak]

lololololololol saw across it hes punny XD

[D35J4RD1N5]

that thing that chris george does at 6:00 or so is really cool

awesome video, chappers

[MarkBrim]

chappers!

nice jam man.

also took your advice, got a pack of daddarios, and now i'm really connecting the strings to guitar! they really do reflect well for anyguitars sound.

thanks for doin what you do man, cheers.

[TimJMorrison]

Cheesy bites with pepperoni... should have gone meat feast man.... should have gone meat feast.....

Also, lolpornomusic.

[VelezBiH]

good jam rob, btw i have the same shirt you wore in that video marshall is rock n roll

[samworthington123]

one of the best videos yet by the way!

[samworthington123]

chris george and chappers are the MEN!

[porgy08]

you can see Laurie in around 7:00 mesmerized by this shedding., lol

[Hezus3Christo]

haha i like how you got down and showed him where to tap i think it took a sec to clue in what needed to be done but it was awesome none the less.

[adrianvdb]

Hey nice! I'm glad ur one oof those who understands that music is not about tapping on 400 miles/hour för 10 seconds. Its about feeling dude and you got it.

cheers

[RobChappers]

Mine is just perfect, how do you mean unbalanced? Is your a 401 SM or a 260?

[ArkAngelHFB]

i feel sorry for the bass player... as I bass player I know how this feels... it's kinda like watching someone eat a really big pizza... and you just get bread sticks... T_T

[DeadWhiteButterflies]

OMG, I was there today! I saw the guy in the green T-shirt. Didn'y know it was him. Creepy coincidence.

I was the nerdy looking kid in the tight jeans and blue hoodie, if you saw me.

It was a great show, tried out some lovely PRS guitars and got a photo taken with Jim Marshall. Mind=blown!

[najtrows]

aaaahh! i wanna jam! :D gonna practise some scales now!

[JDinop]

god that is one mohterfucker of a pizza rob...

[Darfuria]

I'm quite fond of Domino's double decker pizzas. I can just imagine someone calling them.

"... and what topping(s) would you like sir?"

"... ANOTHER PIZZA!"

And thus it was so!

[suigie]

what guitar is chris using?

[RobChappers]

It's a LAG mate, really nice!

[Talsbot]

You the man Rob!

[jonesr227]

That other guy's damn good (as well). Also, Rob, I'm concerned about your eating habits. Remember you are what you eat. :)

[Darfuria]

Rob is therefore now Italian win \m/

[B2Rockin]

Chappers REPRESENTIN!! Nice jam bro

[gteamer]

Where is the ML1?

[RobChappers]

I should have prototype 2 in about a fortnight, proto 1 is on it's way to some retailers to look at ;-)

[Stearner]

An awesome jam there- this is what it's all about, two top class musicians interacting together and making music, eh. Nice one Rob, one of your best vids for ages, quality stuff :-)

[RobChappers]

Thanks mate, yeah it was great fun. Chris is a really nice guy ;-)

[SkootSucksAtLife]

Hey Rob! nice playing!!

a quick question.. what was that on your headstock?

[SkootSucksAtLife]

at around 1:20

[fireatwill1994]

it was a tuner

[XxiMattxX]

That rocked! Plus the Class 5 is a great amp 5/5

[MrRalphonzo]

I should pay more attention to the forums cos' I'd have definitely popped up! Did you manage to eat all of that pizza?

[Darfuria]

Nathan certainly struggled with his... Ha ha ha

[RobChappers]

Ha ha.. no mate, I could never eat all of that!

[Darfuria]

Psh, you almost did!

[MaskedEmrys]

Guy at the end there had ham and pineapple... he knows what's up.

[maxlamenace987654321]

WOW! you both can play!!! haha!

This box of rock is pretty nice!

[WedlakeMusic]

After the show i looked up the class 5, MA and Haze 40 and cant decide which id prefer.. any suggestions?

[WedlakeMusic]

Hey Chappers i was one of the twins you met earlier. Awsome playing

[lauriemonk]

how does Chris George play that guitar without getting back ache?!

[WedlakeMusic]

Hey awsome playing. I was there watching

[EddyH7]

Oh my god. Just subbed to you this week and now literally 5 days after I sub to you, you've posted a video with Chris George. I always meet him at the London International Music Show at the Marshall stand. Farid Medjane is a great drummer. Nice to see Rob B and Farid, as they weren't at LIMS this year. Maybe see you at the next LIMS Rob C. :)

[RobChappers]

Cheers mate, yeah I'll see you at LIMS ;-)

[bernhardtsen74]

Nothing beats real Amps!

Line6 sounds, But only sounds like an real amp!

Buy a used Marshall, Vox and anything real amp, and listen to it with real Boss, Dunlop effects and listen to the difference!

Nothing Beats Real Amps!!!!!!!

[gamerska]

Awesome man! Another one of your billion fans right here :)

[RobChappers]

Ha ha nice to meet you ;-)

[soggybomb]

kinda g3 style

[menga111]

marshall \m/

[Moltisanti]

haha that blues jam didn't take long to turn into a shred fest :D

awesome!

[Darfuria]

Sorry about my shaky shaky filming guys! Chappers' usual camera dude couldn't make it, and I'm a terrible filmer - haha!

That band were sweet though. Their drummer is ridiculous!

[RobChappers]

Dude you did a great job ;-)

[MojoPenguin]

You gotta love small venues, nice playing guys \m/

[harryormemusic]

Oh man... Wish I'd been there. Chris and Rob are both such amazing players, massively jealous of all the guys there.

[RevilationGuitar91]

btw at 6:52 did he tap that note? :D

[Darfuria]

I think he did, just about - but not very successfully.

[RobChappers]

He kinda... massaged it... ;-)

[RevilationGuitar91]

hahaha nice :D

[tylerdwells]

I am one of those Gazillion fans from Youtube!

[RobChappers]

Nice to meet you mate ;-)

[RevilationGuitar91]

Damn! I would like to shred like rob :(
