Marshall 2555x Silver Jubilee Review & Comparison

[@eds4754]

I like the MKIII best here! Nice video

[@totallyradguitars959]

Thank you!

[@MorGuitarz]

Best highlight vid of the Jube (and the MKIII, which I also have) out there. Thanks for posting!

[@totallyradguitars959]

Thanks, much appreciated. I have a few ideas for the next one to improve the mic quality and maybe take a little more time in advance to record good riffs. I kind of just threw these together because I had to get rid of the amp the next morning so it was a little rushed. Maybe in the future I'll get another and have a chance to revisit it - and I agree, the Mk III is really great, as long as you can live without a clean channel and use your guitar volume. That one deserves its own video too I think.

You got a new sub from Texas, I saw your Blue Splawn demo and it was 👌. Also your 80's logo won me over because I'm an 80's kid (47yrs old)

[@totallyradguitars959]

Thanks! I just threw something together and thought it looked pretty cool for a T-shirt and ended up making it my logo. Glad to have you along!

[@neutron_audio]

EPIC!"

[@portuguesebeer5069]

But is the Silver Jub an all tube amp? Could you review the studio version? Cheers from Portugal 🤘🍺🇵🇹

1.800 2.SJ 3.900 Please do another review on your new SJ.

[@r1deftone]

I'd like to see you review a JCM900. I have the SL-X and the Hi Gain Dual reverb, both are stellar amps. I like them better than my JCM800 2205 & 2204.

[@totallyradguitars959]

Thanks! This whole video deserves a bit of a re-do I think. I love my SL-X, and my 2205. I have a 900DR too, a Reissue so maybe that's part of it, but I just don't "love" it compared to the others. Still a great amp, still going to keep it, but if I could only have one it wouldn't make the cut. Cheers

[@kieranmcgee3610]

Maybe an unpopular opinion, but my least favourite was the Jubilee. All things considered I think I'd go for the MKiii above the others!

[@totallyradguitars959]

I liked the 2205 most, the Mk III second. I sold the Jubilee after the review and got a lot of comments basically saying I didn't really do it right - so I bought another one haha. I still think I like the 2205 and Mk III more, but I'm probably going to re-do this comparison test now that I have another + a nicer studio. Cheers!

[@kieranmcgee3610]

@@totallyradguitars959 looking forward to that one!

[@portuguesebeer5069]

​@@totallyradguitars959 waiting for your new review of the Silver Jub. Have you done it si far? Cheers from Portugal 🤘🍺🇵🇹

[@MorGuitarz]

The MKIII is no slouch... Sounds more defined

[@joelbates87]

That Kramer is fucking rad!

[@techdeathhippie6319]

I need one someday .

[@davidetorriglia1994]

Hi. I like to try This amp … For you This is a good amp? I have 2203x modded #34#36 and jose arredondo 1959slp…. Never had the opportunity for try 2555x. How is the built quality? Regards

[@totallyradguitars959]

Hey, quality is very good on the build but personally I prefer my 2205 and 2210 to this 2555. That's not to say it is a bad amp, just a personal preference thing - the 2555 feels a bit less aggressive and maybe a bit warmer than something like your Jose amp will feel, so it might be a nice flavor to add to your collection. Cheers

[@davidetorriglia1994]

@@totallyradguitars959 Thanks for your comment. Best regards

[@portuguesebeer5069]

Also id like to know if the "diodes" are allways working or if they just work when you pull the rhithm clip. Thanks!

[@totallyradguitars959]

Hey! The diodes are not engaged in the rhythm channel unless you pull the rhythm clip - but a different set of diodes is always on in the lead channel and can’t be turned off.

[@nunoharris]

Hi. Whats the brand of your Pickups? Thanks

[@totallyradguitars959]

Hey, EMG’s in this video

[@InDecemberOfficial]

4:41 still no 2205 on the channel :(

[@totallyradguitars959]

Don’t worry! I still own that one as well as a 2210. Those and the 2203 are the very next amps I plan to cover, I’ve just been really tied up with real life responsibilities. But it’s coming!

[@davidledford6482]

who needs passive pickups, go listen to deep purple,s,....made in japan, an ritchies tone thru the modded marshall majors,an he is never fizzy or fuzzy,an has sense enough to play strats to keep things in control...........

[@zxexrxox]

What VHT amp is that in the background?

[@totallyradguitars959]

Hey, it's a 2003 VHT Pittbull 50/CL with the spring reverb option. Easily one of my favorite amps, especially for lead tones, but it's much darker than your average Marshall so not for everyone.

[@zxexrxox]

@@totallyradguitars959 You should make a video of it.

[@totallyradguitars959]

@@zxexrxox I absolutely will, just been very busy lately with work. That amp and an Orange OR50 I just picked up are right at the top of my list for the next video.

[@DenBoogieden]

Still waiting a video about 2205🙃

[@totallyradguitars959]

Hmmm that sounds like the one I should do next. My favorite amp - I also have a 2210. I'd really like to acquire an earlier 82-84 one before I do the deep dive on it so I can compare the circuits - there were some really big changes between those years

[@scottpeters4401]

Nobody buys a Jubilee for the clean channel...it’s an old school Marshall,meant to be turned up loud....I have an original one I bought new in 87...I also have the reissue...the new ones are very close to the originals...Great amps though for that classic Marshall grind...they come alive when you get the volume around 6 or so....Those EMG’s sound great thru it..

[@totallyradguitars959]

Thanks! I really liked it as well. I was actually surprised how much I did like the clean channel, it's no fendery clean but not bad at all, compared to a few other high gainers I have where the clean really is an afterthought.

[@truthfactreality6814]

I have this amp. Both channels are excellent. John Frusciante and slash all in one box

[@davidledford6482]

way too much talk,an explanation etc...i dont care about all the hi tech trickery etc..sure it sounds good a bit too muddy an full, never fails unless you got a good strat...........

[@Maverick20132]

The point of this channel is to break things down to the core to get a full understanding of what you’re buying. 😂
