Mesa boogie studio 22 Plus - Test Sound by Paco Martucci

[@22lucky]

Finally someone who doesn’t use total distortion and rather allows us to hear what the amp sounds like clean and with various guitars. Thnx!

[@EricJohn2112]

Beautiful, soulful playing...

[@MrUltracrab]

This might be the greatest gear demo vid I’ve ever seen. It literally has everything for a demo including the four iconic guitars each being used for their strengths. Man. Well done buddy! Very helpful in trying to decide whether or not to snag a 22 off of CL right now.

[@PacoMartucci]

Thank you very much. I'm glad I could have been helpful. Good music.

[@beautifulreub]

Very intelligent and sophisticated playing! Especially liked the end, beautiful phrasing and chord shapes.

[@adamclarkson9047]

Great playing. This is the best sounding demo of the Studio 22 that I’ve heard so far.

[@PacoMartucci]

Thank you Adam

[@zefferan0]

Your video inspired me to buy one of these little MesaBoogie and that was one of the best decisions I have made. Thank you. 🙏

[@PacoMartucci]

I'm happy that i've be helpful. thanks for wathching

[@Dang...]

Nice demo, tasteful playing. Mesa boogie studio 22 Plus is an incredible sounding amp and built like a tank. I gigged mine for YEARS! Still sounds great too.

[@JoeValenti1968]

Bravissimo! Gran suono :-) 😜

[@tims001]

A strat a tele, les paul and a 335... perfect amp demo. It should be the standard

[@PacoMartucci]

Thanks... 🙏🙏🙏

[@Marcus_C51]

I agree-gives you a superb idea of how the amp is with all of the mainstream guitars. The Standard for demos indeed!

[@jesussavesrick]

Damn, that sounds amazing! Both the playing and the amp!!

[@topografer]

I loved you 335 playing man. Pure genius

[@colintyler7119]

great amp had one since 1995, ton of sounds there, speaker is killer ❤❤❤

[@paulmartin8100]

Beautiful playing, lovely to listen and great to hear the tones you got out of the humble 22+

[@daliborization]

Amazing! Great playing, great tone! I had this amp once, and watching this video makes me feel like it's back in my room. Smell of tube and stuff... Thanks man.

[@Marcus_C51]

Paco-this is one of the best demos I've seen. Your playing is really top notch and stellar! As somebody said yes, it takes the focus away from the amp at times because you are really a fine guitarist! (ha ha) I've been wanting one of these studio 22 pluses for years-have to have reverb on any combo I buy. Hope I can find one for a decent price but I know that may be difficult. Thanks so much for posting this.

[@PacoMartucci]

HI Marcus, I am very grateful for your words. I'm very happy. I hope you find this beautiful amp. Thanks again for your comment. good music.

[@МузвитринаИнтернет-магазин]

Это одно из лучших в мире! Гитарист и звук потрясающий!

[@cs1bo]

Thanks very much for the demo, the Studio .22 Plus sounds particularly nice with teles and semi-hollows.

[@5150powder]

Yep. As others have said. Gorgeous work on your behalf. Well done.

[@catcancrunch7260]

I miss my studio 22 plus I had it for over 15 years and loved that little amp, seriously great playing thanks for your upload 👍🙏🐈

[@catcancrunch7260]

A guitarist in one of the band's I was in was using a jubilee and it was a amazing tone with his Les Paul, cut right through the mix, I was using a Mesa nomad 100 combo and the two amps were really great sounding for blues rock 👍

[@crapuleverte]

Ok dude, I am now litteraly gonna 0.75x what you played with your ES at the end to learn it ; this was awesome !

[@PacoMartucci]

thank you very much. I'm honored

[@PacoMartucci]

wow ... I would be very curious to hear it. thank you very much I am honored.

[@peterrich4557]

Amp sounds great. Beautiful playing.

[@PacoMartucci]

thank you so much Peter..;)

[@LGuitarB]

Very nice demo, sounds beautiful. AND great playing!

[@ggetin]

Really good sound 🎵 with every guitars 🎸 ...

[@jazzFABRYk]

Great and very tasteful playing! And nice tone of course- thanks for sharing - Axel

[@MattTheGuitarGuy]

Stellar playing brother!

[@PacoMartucci]

Thank you so much Matt..

[@juanbalsas4381]

@Paco Martucci qué buenos tonos sacás. Cómo configurás la eq para cada caso?

[@walt957]

Fantastic demo. Tuned in for the studio demo and was distracted by your smooth play. Wondering about which speaker is in your amp. I have the same amp, same switches. I now know how great the amp can sound.

[@ApostolosNikolaidis1]

03:22 Wow! Great tones.

[@UliHeim]

I was looking for a mesa boogie test... and found some outstamding playing! Congrats and thanks!... and subbed for sure :) Uli

[@jazzFABRYk]

Hi Uli, schaue auch gerade nach einem Boogie. Habe ein Auge auf einen DC-2 geworfen, da er zwei komplett getrennte Klangregelungen hat, aber dieser hier klingt auch prima. Hast Du Dich für einen entschieden? LG - Axel

[@lyesbenlarbi7458]

Wonderful, playing. Do you thank this amp would be a good compromise for home and gigging use. I play soul funk sound. (Ideally I would by a Fender twin reverb but they are far too loud). Would the Mesa be a good choice?

[@rockinzhu7998]

太喜欢你的演奏了大哥，别忘了更新啊~ 希望欣赏你更多的演奏！

[@cycloptical26]

Terrific blues chops!

[@dirtydavesgarage8251]

Great amp, and fantastic playing!

[@PacoMartucci]

Thank you so much...!!

[@coreyclark6505]

Really great playing and tones!

[@PacoMartucci]

Thank you so much Corey 🙏🙏🙏

[@abubakr6939]

I just picked one up from an estate sale for 440$ with a free cable and footswitch and mike stand! This amp is unbelievable!

[@PacoMartucci]

Absolutely. Have fun ;) ;)

[@sparkyguitar0058]

That's a fantastic price for a great amp. I got a wood and wicker S O B full of options 10 yrs ago for $800 and thought I did good. But I did do good on the road case $120.

[@Marcus_C51]

Are you serious??!!! Wow...I imagine an estate sale would be a great way to go they see a small amp and have no clue just how fine an amp Mesa Boogies are. Congrats, hope you are still enjoying it!

[@simonsmith2579]

Nice playing man! And you can do the Jazz. Best demo of one of these I can find.

[@room335ko]

I like this demonstration play very much Every guitar sounds very good Is not this amp modified remodeling anywhere? I heard a really good sound I think I will buy it in second hand

[@PacoMartucci]

Hi, I thank you so much. No changes for this amplifier. It is really very beautiful.

[@jamediaconsulting]

Hey Paco, great tone and amazing phrasing! Any chance you remember your settings for the strat and the 335?

[@PacoMartucci]

Hi. Thank you so much.. the two guitar are setting in the same way. 10/46.

[@jamediaconsulting]

Paco Martucci Thank you Paco but what I mean is the amp settings?

[@PacoMartucci]

@@jamediaconsulting hi.. the amp settings are very simple .. in the clean sound, medium highs and lows are more or less in half, depending on the guitar, in the crunch or distorted sound the gain is a little below half

[@jamediaconsulting]

@@PacoMartucci Thanks!

[@paullemieux100]

Just through my tv speakers that clean intro you did is almost Dumble-like to my uneducated ears.

[@antonellonigro9668]

Complimenti ...gusto tocco e tecnica incredibili! Volevo chiederti se questo ampli è gestibile in casa a bassi volumi senza perdere di qualità. Grazie

[@PacoMartucci]

Ciao Antonello, grazie infinite per i complimenti. E' un ampli che ha come potenza 22W quindi non poco, a casa si puo' suonare ma ovviamente a volumi contenuti quindi la pasta a cui ti riferisci forse è difficile da ottenere. Ma per esempio il volume che avevo nel video non era esagerato ma allo stesso tempo molto godibile. Però per esempio con un semplice attenuatore puoi ottenere ciò' che cerchi.

[@antonellonigro9668]

@@PacoMartucci Grazie mille Paco! In Italia abbiamo grandi talenti e mi auguro che tu possa essere ancora più visibile....Per l’attenuatore a cui ti riferisci quale mi consigli?

[@PacoMartucci]

@@antonellonigro9668 ancora grazie🙏🙏🙏. Io da poco sto usando il torpedo captor della two note, davvero moto soddisfacente, è una load-box reattiva quindi volendo puoi collegare direttamente la testa dell'amplificatore alla scheda audio per registrare con ottimi risultati, inoltre assieme alla load la twonote fornisce un software "the Wall of sound" dove all'interno hai moltissimi IR per quanto riguarda la simulazione del cabinet. Sempre della two note è molto bella la load X. Se fai un giro trovi moltissimi video così puoi farti un idea. Spero di essere stato utile.

[@antonellonigro9668]

@@PacoMartucci Perfetto ... Grazie mille!!

[@geoffreymarsan8721]

Hello! Can it be played at room level or does it need an attenuator? Thanks :)

[@graemehill5998]

I got mine. And it’s not for sale. Ever.

[@GuitarManiaytofficial]

Grandissimo suono, e grandi mani 🎸👍🏻

[@Philyppostrat]

Gran playing...come digerisce i pedali? Il clean ha volume prima di saturare? Ho visto che lo ha utilizzato per tanto. Lo reputi versatile?

[@PacoMartucci]

Ciao, grazie per aver scritto..!! A parer mio li digerisce benissimo. I pedali risultano molto più naturali e più' flat rispetto alla risposta data da altri ampli, cosa a mio parere importantissima. Ha un discreto volume prima di saturare ma comunque il suo clean leggermente saturo a mio parere è veramente TOP . Versatilissimo!!! Io ho suonato tanto pop su palchi abbastanza grossi ma anche tanto blues, jazz , soul. Lo reputo adatto proprio ad un tipo di chitarrismo versatile, esattamente quello che ho cercato di comunicare nella demo.

[@Philyppostrat]

Grazie mille per la risposta...a questo punto valuto seriamente di prenderlo, avevo anche tra i preferiti il tuo mesi fa...🤣 ho temporeggiato un po’ troppo...comunque nel tuo video hai comunicato benissimo quello che volevo comunicare...

[@scottjamable]

Does your lead master knob attenuate volume on the the lead channel properly? Can you set the two channels up with the same usable volumes with pure cleans and full distortion? The lead mstr does nothing on my amp and am trying to figure out why.

[@PacoMartucci]

Hi, if I remember correctly, since unfortunately I no longer have the mesa like me, you should have a volume, master and lead and all three have a specific function. The led is the volume of the distortion.

[@BeGloryOrPeace]

awesome video dude, and Great Tone!! 🤘🏽

[@dezmonseth674]

Anybody know if it has a headphone input on the back panel?

[@MarcoMaffioletti]

E che cavolo! Volevo sentire come suona sto ampli, visto che ce n'è uno usato in vendita vicino casa, e scopro un chitarrista della Madonna! E come vuoi che dopo non corra a comprarlo sto Mesa? O che smetta di suonare, perché tanto non gli arrivo alle caviglie a Paco? Bravo e grazie mille!

[@PacoMartucci]

Ciao Marco, grazie infinite per il tuo commento. Sono davvero imbarazzato. Ti ringrazio tantissimo. 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@JONNIE_ROCKER]

Beutiful played

[@francispower1418]

The only amp I have ever regretted selling. Sold it to trade up to a Lone Star Special, which I hated (apart from the clean 5w channel). The studio 22+ is a stand alone classic and not fashionable, so great value for money.

[@PacoMartucci]

absolutely agree..!! ;)

[@1979giano]

Paco !!!! N 1 gran suono te e l ampli!👍🤪

[@PacoMartucci]

Grazie Gianlu... ;)

[@gianluigirossi3172]

Ciao e complimenti per come suoni! Puoi dirmi se in questo video con la strato all'inizio hai usato il canale clean con molto gain o il lead con poco gain? Il master A che livello è? Si riesce ad ottenere buoni suoni da questo ampli a volumi da casa? Grazie mille. Gianluigi

[@PacoMartucci]

Ciao Gianluigi. Ti ringrazio per il complimento. Con la strato in generale gli ho tirato un po' il collo ed in questo modo essendo un 22 watt riesco ad ottenere quel suono leggermente sporco che a me piace tanto. Per quanto riguarda "la casa" sicuramente non puoi dargli tantissimo volume, 22 watt cmq si sentono. Per ottenere questi suoni a volumi casalinghi ti consiglio un attenuatore che porta l'ampli da 22 watt a 10. Cosi facendo puoi dargli volumi ed ottenere un suono simile. Questo vale con tutti gli ampi.

[@northland..]

u jam out like a rockstar. cuz that was siiick

[@metalshredder4life817]

Its a little hard to focus on the amp thats featured in the video when you distract the viewer with showing off your badass guitar collection at the same time. Great playing too man! You seemed really in touch with the strat in particular. But they all sounded nice through the amp as well. I think ill buy the one i found for sale here locally thanks to your video. It helped a lot. Thanks

[@PacoMartucci]

thank you so much ... I'm glad I could help you in your choice. Good music

[@metalshredder4life817]

And I finally picked one of these up on Friday last week and I'm really impressed. It can get really loud really fast and can take whatever you give it. It really shines with humbuckers. It's given me new motivation too play my Les Paul Standard more. And it also sounds great when plugged in to a cab. Thanks again for your video. It made me go from thinking about buying one to just pulling the trigger. Glad I did.

[@PacoMartucci]

@@metalshredder4life817 Fantastic. I am happy to have helped you. With LesPaul it is truly beautiful. Now make a nice video ...;) and if you want, send it to me by E-mail. Good fun

[@MasKNullards]

Super!

[@lovecraftmusic8717]

Ciao, volevo chiederti se é considerato un ampli "inferiore" (diciamo alternativa più economica) rispetto ai mark o se semplicemente é una bestia a parte...ed in tal caso in cosa differisce. Nello specifico vorrei capire com'é il distorto dato che suono metal anni '80.

[@PacoMartucci]

Ciao, scusa se ti rispondo solo ora. Devo dirti la verità non conosco tantissimo il Mark. Ho avuto modo di suonarlo qualche volta ma non sono un gran conoscitore. Questo è un ampli a parer mio versatilissimo, puoi suonarci davvero tutto. Nel distorto che senti con la Les Paul il gain non è al massimo è più o meno a meta.

[@Matte23Pam]

@@PacoMartucci Complimenti per le esecuzioni e per come suoni!! Uno dei test migliori che abbia visto su YT! Una domanda nei suoni hai sempre utilizzato l'eq grafico acceso o spento?

[@PacoMartucci]

@@Matte23Pam Grazie infinite. In questo test è spento. ;))

[@박성욱-f2c]

nice tone

[@terribleligadelmal4541]

can this handle a practice with a hard hitting drummer ? i mean, is loud enough? i am talking about something like prog metal a la dream theater or symphony x (but more amateur obviosly lol )

[@PacoMartucci]

the amp is very nice .. it's a 22 w ii I also played heavy rock. In my opinion with good valves it is a good maintenance it is possible to make it ring at high volumes

[@terribleligadelmal4541]
