Geartorial S1:E20 - 73' Marshall vs. Trainwreck Express Amp

The topology is worlds apart though. The Marshall has a cathode follower which can thicken the timbre. Both amps have a similar P.I. stage. The output transformers are really different. The power supplies are similar but the caps sizes are different.

[@dan5danPT]

I have to say that Express sounds amazing. Glad to hear the new era TW can still hang with the best that Marshall has to offer from their golden days. Might have to get in touch with JM!

[@roberthurless4615]

I have to say I like 50 watt Marshalls over the 100 watt models. In this case I would go with the Marshall. You can tell it's a metal panel from the upper mids and highs thought. I find that changing the bright cap to between 100 pf and 250pf removes the ear piercing highs. It just goes to show that a classic circuit does not need to be changed or messed with for awesome tone.

[@MOBontv]

Thanks for the tips and watching!

So there has to be more to the story on that Marshall. I have owned quite a few vintage Marshalls and you are correct that some are magic, most are pigs additionally they will sound different from venue to venue. This one has to have had some mods along the way, can you elaborate on them please? I always though Ken voiced his amps more for single coil guitars as the strat shines through your wreck. Great Demo!

[@MOBontv]

As far as I know, that Marshall is stock with the exception of the master volume. And it actually works well in it. Who knows who did the master, maybe Ken? Wouldn't surprise me. Most of the cats here in NJ did go to Ken a lot over the years. I haven't seen in the inside of that amp thou. If I find out any info on it, I'll reach out.

[@andreas5153]

Maybe you should check the bias adjustment and the health of your tubes. The OT can be damaged. Filter caps may have to be replaced.

[@justinainsworth6264]

This comment is somewhat old now, but if you still have the Marshall don't underestimate speakers and cabinet choice. A 4x12 G12M cab is the voice that a Marshall shines the best through. The right cab and speakers can make an amp sound totally different. Also a lot of old Marshalls like to see the guitar volume at 8-9(no treble bleed for Marshalls) instead of 10 for a fatter and less harsh lead tone. Longer cables also help as they were voiced brighter and brighter to accommodate people running 30-50 ft cables on stage in the 70s. Again you may know all of this but is worth mentioning. My Marshall sounds amazing with about 20-30 ft of cable(think Kossoff's velvety midrange texture) and very bright and harsh with a 10 ft cable. So the variance between Marshalls can be drastically affected by the cables you are using on each one. They are very sensitive to every piece of the chain plugged into them. EQ and presence needs to be as high as possible for maximum gain and clarity while the bass knob has the most drastic change over character of tone. Bass from 6-10(the amp is actually brighter with bass on 10 vs 8-9 because it allows the full signal to flow through preamp) the mids are pulled back some(think EVH and Jimmy Page), and with the bass on about 0-5 you get more of a woody low mid boost as opposed to bass frequencies and a softer treble(think Angus's 75-81 tone). Didn't plan to write so much, but I love Marshall tone and these things are what I don't see discussed enough on forums minus the speaker choice part. Cheers!

[@howabouthetruth2157]

First off, I love your playing & voice Brother. Probably share the same opinion as many other viewers ( listeners ): Both amps sound great, but I think the Trainwreck has better cleans, while the old Marshall has better high gain tone. ( Too each his/her own of course. ) Have ya had a chance to try the fairly new Marshall SV20 ( "Studio Vintage" ......in head or combo )??? Marshall did their best to recreate the tone & layout of a 100w Plexi, but downsized to a 20w version.......and I believe they passed with flying colors. Man, from what I've heard on various videos, it sounds awesome, especially when jumping both channels. Their goal was to recreate the tone of a 100w Plexi driven hard, but at a sound level that doesn't give you tinnitus and sheer the enamel off of your teeth, lol.........in a much smaller & lighter package too......of course. Nice clean tones too.

[@MOBontv]

Thanks so much! Haven't had a chance to try the 20w yet but I'll put it on the list. Trainwreck is my favorite always but it is nice to explore other tones. Thanks so much for watching and chiming in. Love the info and feedback.

[@howabouthetruth2157]

@@MOBontv The pleasure was all mine Brother. if ya ever get around to trying the new little Marshall ( head or combo ).......make sure it's the SV20.......NOT the SC20. The SC20 is just a small version of a later JCM. I watched a comparison video between the two, and the little JCM ( SC20 ) really struggled to get good clean tones. Sure, it has more gain than "the new mini Plexi SV20", but a good pedal can always be used. You know how it is, it's much easier to add than subtract from what an amp already has. I truly believe you will be pleasantly surprised with the SV20. And it's 100% made in the UK Marshall factory. Some of it's circuitry was hand wired/soldered too. That's always a plus with mass produced amps. It's also loud as hell for a small amp, great for small to medium sized venues.......and practice with the band where volume has to be kept down.

[@shanecgriffo]

both are awesome .. i jumped ship to a line 6 helix recently and in the last firmware update they modelled a trainwreck called ingrid from around the mid 80's and a marshall 50w (but a plexi model) and i have to say both sound amazing with an outstanding feel as well.. that's as close as i'll be getting to the real thing i think 😉
