Marshall Slash SL-5 - WORLD EXCLUSIVE

[@SuperTastywaves]

These two could review my Mom and I would still love it. Favorite youtube channel, by far.

[@maryshelleydinner]

This may be the best review done of anything ever.

[@MrFreakrose]

I'm german, and I laughed at the part where the Captain tried to speak german :D It wasn't actually that bad, I understood it, but next time try a bit less angriness in your tone ;) PS: great video and DAMN that amp is fuckin' great!!

[@MrDarrenBrownie]

Der "Deutsch-Part" war genial :D

[@MrFreakrose]

***** Oja! Das sollten die öfters machen :D

[@riccardopanella4873]

German is the right language to give orders ! Just like French is the one to say love words

[@phenixreturns]

*MArshall sl5 : great demo with its best pedal **kzbin.info/www/bejne/d5WnlqKaqpplZ6s*

[@IanWrigleyNZ]

Surprisingly good sound from a 5watt unit!

[@asifrocker2012]

Killed the knocking on heavens door solo ... Good video

[@MurrisPCGaming]

Just came back from the Slash concert in Helsinki. Can´t stop lovin' dat tone :D

[@Gullintanne]

i must say i love the tone of chappers' guitar. it has just that "errr" kind of sound on the low end. like a growl, while at the same time sounding full and dark.

[@ZeroG84]

So I'm guessing right around the part with the german language and the double penetration jokes Marshall thought it would be a good idea to not give you guys anymore exclusives... Am I right?

[@ZeroG84]

You are fashionably 3 years late. :) But yes, that comeback was really worth the wait.

[@briangrant5727]

Love my Marshall SL5 .A great all round amp.

[@Chabub]

a lot of people on here need to lighten up - two guys doing a brilliant review and having a laugh - what's the problem ? They're doing exactly what I do when I've got a guitar in my hand - having fun. Great review - great amp - mine arrives tomorrow.

[@VivaLaBenji93]

Played a LP special through one of these the other day... heavenly crunch tone!

[@lockpicker2k]

Sweetwater (USA) is selling these now $699.00 as a pre-order. I understand the appeal/niche of a low watt amp but I think it's a bit pricey considering other choices at around the same price range. Like others have mentioned the lack of an effects loop is a deal breaker for me as well. Sounds great though!

[@LJPV777]

I suppose if someone was totally obsessed with Slash, they wouldn't see a problem in buying it, but I think you can get a new kick-ass combo for that price, maybe even a used half stack.

[@shield400]

I've been looking forward to a review of this amp since I saw it featured in a NAMM video. I MUST have one! Thanks!

[@Dodgybackjack]

The best reviews on youtube BY FAR

[@klaymeister]

At the end is a song called Too Weak. Rob also played Aeromancy with his guitar.

[@Comp3630]

Clean = not bad Overdrive = Awesome

[@cascaprogres]

9:28 never do that when the amp is ON

[@TRiToX91]

That is a delicious tone.

[@mk_6]

im way to excited for this video!

[@rmaclema]

Great video as always.

[@billyb440]

Already have one of these Amps ordered........... should get it in the summer. But wow what an awesome sound. Although I do have an AFD 100, already, I still want one of these amps.

[@pahblol]

One of your best videos!

[@meshiura]

The ibanez 25th aniversary is still the best video you've done.

[@the59gibsonlespaul]

Love the ML-3 T-types have always been one of favs :D

[@IvoCabrera]

Sounds awesome!

[@SessionGold]

One of the best versions of Knocking On Heavens Door solo i've ever heard, great demo! :)

[@brandonhance2872]

I wish there was a head version available!!!

[@TobyKBTY]

This thing just has awesome rock tone. Man.

[@MrCmd7572]

wish i lived in uk you guys treat customers like family your great....reviews demo,s awesome....

[@enriqueramirez4453]

That strat sounds awesome with that amp!

[@TheMysteryG]

Nice bottom end in hole no2. I think the comradery is gold. Oh yeah the amp, nice.

[@christhesnaildriver]

Likely deliberate to avoid the copyright police as it's a piece from a big artist. Rob and other youtube guitarists often play licks and solos slightly wrong or cut them short for this reason.

[@MrPrytania1]

Yeah, You are correct. I have a Vox AC4TV (tube) which can go 4, 1 and 1/4 watt and 1/4 watt is quite loud to play at home.

[@M81_WOODLAND]

So glad I still have this great amp. 🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@tdm036]

how is its dynamics?

[@DrThrashmaster]

Live in your eyes!!

[@philquin1991]

Awesome Video and always making laugh so much that I can't breathe at times :) Plus I love Stick's Laughs ;)

[@keithg1313]

I dug the Strat. Sounded great.

[@SimmyJaville]

Again it has to be said, Cpt Lee is funny and makes theese videos badass

[@marcuskiesbye6775]

LIVE IN YOUR EYES!

[@joedangle]

I picked up 1 from MF used (lvl1) can't wait till it gets here. If anyone really wants this amp but needs a loop, get a bad cat unleash. It's an attenuator with a built in effects loop.

[@ratsalad80]

Gibson only used the baked maple for what was produced second quarter of 2012. The guitar used in this video is a 2013 Signature T, and the fretboard is indeed rosewood.

[@cmonsterz]

A Marshall bedtime story? Brilliant! Yes please!

[@flatfoot1983]

I think so, too. It was also funnier before an absolutely clear reference was made. Still love Stick's laugh, though. Cracks me up just hearing it.

[@Ibeenez]

If the venue mics up the amp the sound engineer can turn you up through the PA so it should be fine in that case. More ideal for small venues though because you need more head room for large venues really.

[@chuckh4532]

Rob's facial expression when the other guy said he's 'a hole 2 kinda guy' was priceless! Lmao

[@TheLambLive]

Fair play, that's an excellent video you've shot. Thanks :-)

[@jackgrimes1366]

Is it loud enough to do pub gigs with? Please answer :)

[@user-hm8xi5zt5c]

Most definitely.. I rarely go past 4 volume.

[@MaggaraMarine]

There's a volume knob for a reason and IMO it doesn't sound bad at all if you don't crank it (I have my volume at 1 on my Laney VC30 and it sounds great). And in bedroom you don't need to have the best tone ever. Amps are there to make you sound louder. Of course today even the stage players might not need that much power because they can rely on the PA to make them louder and the amps are just miced. You could even gig with a Roland Microcube. :D

[@RoccoPezzin]

love it!!

[@davidpettis5100]

Loved the "hole jokes" your videos are entertaining and informative!

[@OperationEndGame]

Is the gain channel fully cranked on this video? It sounded like they have it set on 12 o'clock... I want to hear more before I commit to buying one.

[@bernieadams6606]

Around 11:00 it makes me so uncomfortable when Rob keeps looking at Capt while strumming

[@petarsutaric6909]

+Bernie Adams why?

[@twidget59]

Why? Really, it's just kind of the way they communicate. Rob's in a band, so he's usually looking over at one of the other bandmates, how you communicate. The two of them have been working together for years, and often switch up the tone on amps for each other, and it's usually with a look.

[@4572dk]

+JD Hoov hes asking why u feel weird

[@1jimif]

I have a Hughes & Kettner, it can run a 18, 5, or 1 watt. One watt of tube power is actually loud, I almost never take it off 1 watt when I'm practicing without a drummer. My friend has a 1 watt BlackStar it is way loud through a 4X12 cab.

[@Mr.5hady]

oh fellas, you start in number one and finish in the two! x)

[@arthurxafis]

Awesome vid guys. Chappers I know you don't do many lessons but it would awesome if you could teach Aeromancy such an awesome riff/song.

[@edwardstables5153]

In a video from a couple of weeks ago he said that they would need to get several more prototypes from the factory. Until this is done they can't give a accurate price. He said that summer 2013 will be the earliest possible time.

[@rogebox]

Going through standby to on can blow your power tube. Once got advice from a Marshall Tech to either remove the standby section or always leave it in the off position,

[@dannyrascalmusic]

And the sneaky mention of a 3 way!

[@SakariKempas]

How about a demo of Laney TI15-112? This amp sounds really great and I really think it's really affordable to be all tube, have a Celestion V30 in it + footswitchable channels. Nice guitar playing there, Chappers.

[@ramonaHQ]

Perfect if you're after that '89 Metal tone.

[@rickyistheman]

Are we gonna get a proper demo of the Chapman signature?

[@DonLeeelbow667]

what make/model was the telecaster looking thingy? loved that tone!

[@kanGaBanGaZ]

Yep, getting one

[@BillGetsItDunn]

I cringe everytime Rob plays Sweet Child O Mine...

[@jweire9756]

He isn't allowed to play it correctly Perfect cause his shit gets flagged or claimed for copyright and then stricter countries can't see it

[@MisiekASG]

@Jb The clown what a bullshit...

[@phenixreturns]

*MArshall sl5 : great demo with its best pedal **kzbin.info/www/bejne/d5WnlqKaqpplZ6s*

[@mixed34]

@@phenixreturns your video was awful. Couldn't watch.

[@Heddy12311]

My God, that is amazing!

[@sulutkin]

This is the very first one that really sounds good enough with Les Paul but also Stratocaster is tasty and juicy. That Knockin´on heaven´s door was what was I waiting for, nice clean sound and good enough and then than hard pushing turbo but still very controllable high gain. Before this I thought 5watts is nothing and 1w is a damn lousy joke comparing to those 50w and 100w heads with 400w cabinet. 5w is a lot when it comes to tube amps. I have never liked Marshall clean sounds but this is good enough no matter if you have LP or Strat. p.s. I would have loved to hear that sound of a double penetration ;)

[@arsenalfanrichi]

Played one for the first time today, and it is absolutely fantastic! Buying one imminently.

[@TheBigDean18]

Giggity

[@littleredguitars2]

cam el toe sounds fantastic

[@TenThousandTacos]

Is that Les Paul loaded with it's stock '57 Classic pickups or did they chuck Slash's Signature Duncans in it for the demo?

[@ivo215]

I've got the little 5 watt Laney Lionheart, and believe me, 5 Watts from a proper tube amp is more than enough to annoy the neighbours. This Marshall 5W sounds really good, I like it. If this was out 2 years ago I may not have bought the Laney, though the Laney is very good too and I have no regrets. They have the same concept in tube configuration, "oversized" cab, an excellent celestion speaker, 2 inputs, 2 channels. BTW, could it be time for a revised how to sound like Slash for > 1000?

[@MyxomaStrain]

They REALLY need to release that album

[@funriffjay]

Rockin the Hawaiian shirt Chappers! Perfect playing guys! =)

[@1jimif]

Sorry if I went a little over board with my comment. It does sound really good, I do hope for a miracle on an effects loop in it before it's released. It sounds so good, I may have to get one anyhow and mod it!

[@Min3freak]

with the neck pickup selected, Slash tends to dig his pick to get slight pinch harmonics like in paradise city. it makes the neck pickup sound less deep and helps it ring through.

[@mrQDQ]

Are you uploading any tour-footage??

[@guitar4496]

Is that the rob chapman 7 string in the background? it has the infinity inlay and is tele shaped...... or is that not out yet?

[@chrishopkins77]

Didn't you and the captain once tour the Northern clubs as Norfolk & Goode? :-) Keep up the good work guys!

[@Xithz]

I was gonna watch the walking dead but a Chappers video about a Slash amp!? Shit can't get any better then that!

[@superman1478]

Live in your eyes.

[@MrGamer90210]

Damn, guys, help me! Is the song Rob plays on about 15.45 an improvisation, or is it existant song? Liked it very much!

[@smallgingerskater]

It's a song called Aeromancy by Rob's band, Dorje. :) (Go and buy the EP now.) (Seriously, buy it.)

[@faridzayish]

wonderful tunes Captain Lee got there

[@DeaniieBoii]

I need that chapman tele! When can we get one!?

[@meanstreetman22]

what kind of strat was that?? i love surf green and 70s headstocks!!!

[@Civilian2.0]

Its all about Andertons having a world exclusive - if only they put as much effort into customer service. I e-mailed them before buying a Gibson Les Paul traditional, asking if they had any 'standout' flame tops. The reply was, 'if buying online you will get the first one we come to on the shelf'. needless to say I shopped somewhere that could supply me with pictures of the guitar I was buying,

[@henningvdm]

Rob can you do a comparison video between Marshall SL5 and Marchall DSL5?

[@VitorDuzarte]

Do you mean where is the Andertons store located?

[@Trv3GuY]

I would love to see a demo of the Les Paul (it's a Signature T, isn't it?).

[@fmcnally]

Rob could you name the melody at 15:38. i really liked that :)

[@spanky10940]

yo chappers.. diggin the dreads man.. rock on!

[@SickMetalAddict]

Guys in another review of Slash's amp, the 100 watt version, they almost nailed the tone but it still was sounding thin until Rob changed the strings to 11's. Slash uses 11's too, or probably used to use them, not sure actually, but anyway if you've got your own amp and you're trying to get Slash's tone, you might as well try gauge 11 and see how much that helps, it made a huge difference with Rob and he was spot on with the 11 gauge.

[@UndeadShinobi158]

will there be a cptlee EP including carmel tow?

[@SagaMediaNet]

Time to see how much better this is than the HT-5 that Chappers & me love...

[@qwertzuuuuuu]

Can i also play it with headphones ?????

[@Martyr9991]

When are we gonna see a demo of that gorgeous Chapper's signature guitar?

[@Machin3God]

Chapper's G'n'R licks have a hint of Brian May. Awesome.

[@JIMJAMSC]

Probably a lot of guys out there like me who own a lot of Marshall heads already have numerous cabs most loaded with V30s. I am not a Slash follower but would buy it for its sound and low watt heads are what I have been buying recently. Bottom line is I do not need a combo and would plug this amp right into a larger cab. I already do that with my class 5 . Come out with a head only version and I would buy it.

[@Jase.Manley]

YES! I love u guys maaaan

[@jAMMAN798]

Sounds OK, but since it is a Marshall, it can sound even slightly better by using the guitar's volume knob for just the right tone.

[@qwertzuuuuuu]

Great Job Guys !!! What about a report on that beautiful guitar ????

[@lewiswhatley687]

I think thats the rob chapman signature model, and I not sure that the seven string has been prototyped yet
