Glad you're enjoying the AFD100 guys! The Gibson sounds absolutely immense through it

[@CaptAnderton]

Does that mean you'll make some more amps like this??? Please??? Pretty please???

[@diegovasta8755]

CaptAnderton hello capt , i know this has nothing to do with the vid but...... can you guys make a vid on a vernon reid signature guitar pleassssssseee

[@loopedproduction]

CaptAnderton The best amp marshall made in 20 years and this is the first time you actually use is? Got to love owning a guitar store :D

[@Kenman540]

I love this Marshall Please bring us another amp like this, as I missed out!!!

[@TheGamerx584]

Please make some more AFD100 ! 100 is not fair :(

[@ravenjames3873]

go watch something else

[@nacksving2464]

Duncan Douglas there is no way a human can dislike sweet child o mine

[@Harpazo_to_Yeshua]

Welcome to the Jungle - 10:04 - Sounds so good! Loved it! :) The whole package really did sound just like Slash! Very nice! So Slash went to Marshall and got his amp tweaked to a specific tone that all of their other amps did not have all those years ago. They probably made a deal to only make that set amount, because Slash did not want many people sounding just like him. lol

[@JohyeahM]

Wow, that vermillion is amaz...HOLY FUCK THOSE MUSTACHES!!! Can't unsee them...

[@TiggyRainbow]

Anyone else start playing through Duff's bass lines in their head when Rob played Sweet Child O' Mine?

[@Skullheadfred]

YEP

[@duffstephens258]

I started to hum it while he was playing

[@mistabonge]

Willmaatealrii I you just can’t help it can you

[@CraigHarrisMusic]

Could we have a video of Chappers just playing riffs through that setup? I like the talking, very informative, but I just want a 10 minute clip of Chappers ripping Slash Riffs through that set up

[@StereoSlasher]

The flame on the body is bloody beautiful

[@rubentrevino6288]

I agree with the captain on his comments on the tone of the amp and the axe, both are the total schizz!

[@bobkat321]

Now that is a rock n roll, Garry Moore would have a big smile on his face, god rest his soul - great marshall player.

[@MDwng]

...couldn't agree more about how ridiculously incredible that AFD 100 sounds. Best Marshall I've, personally, ever heard

[@smackenurjunk]

I agree with the Captain. That is THE best sounding Marshall ever made.

[@felixnilbog4517]

Am i still asleep or does everyone have a stache?

[@felixnilbog4517]

Ah that makes sense

[@ravenjames3873]

your eyes are deceiving you

[@ZachBroyles]

One thing that comes across in the countless videos you guys have made is how despite the gear you guys still sound like yourself when you play. When friends ask me why they don't the sound same as me when they play my rig I just hold my hands up and say "these". Really interesting hearing that in these videos.

[@JamesRussoMillas]

This is officially my fav guitar channel now! Keep it up guys!

[@HarisAlino1haris]

Most authentic sounding SLASH tone....i've ever heard....I wonder why ur not having any copyright issues...slash wud go insane if he heard this :p

[@pacovl46]

He wouldn't because that's exactly why they made his signature guitars and amps! ;-)

[@Akatsuki911100]

pacovl46 slash doesn't care his focus on his work or whatever he calls it!!!

[@HarisAlino1haris]

I knw it was an obvious joke :p

[@tufnel1970]

Just a reply to let you know I am really enjoying your videos. I have only discovered you at the beginning of November when I was doing a youtube search on Fender, now I am checking youtube every day for new videos. Well done.

[@6672rock]

I liked the Slash model with the abalone mother-of-pearl coiled snake inlay in the neck and body. It's probably discontinued by now.

[@GunsnRosesfan2012]

The Snakepit les Paul has been discontinued for years.

[@austinbilbro770]

it's also ridiculously expensive

[@navidds2300]

6672rock there was one on ebay recently with like a $35k price tag. it's hard to find even the epiphone version of snakepit les pauls these days

[@vondoom2876]

I loved this! Andertons vids have come on a long way in terms of production, but this is the real guys having fun and being honest that makes the andertons vids great. What a classic.

[@FarhanRahman1]

Omg the tone on this combination is unbelievable!

[@T00DEEPBLUE]

I have never heard someone play Sweet Child O' Mine and have it sound THAT close to original in my entire life.

[@whatyoumakeofit6635]

Slashs amp he rented was a tremolo amp. Was modded to make the tremolo circuit become another gain stage. The jcm he used on tour is what the afd100 is modeled after.

[@NelsonBlakeII]

I'm just glad they lubed the nut before playing. Had to do it! Thanks for another great vid.

[@duffstephens258]

Man if I had15K to throw away I would totally get this setup...

[@raging8r]

10:09 feel it chappers feel it

[@guitarnut7438]

that sound is to die for!!! That is THE sound!

[@adamjones4220]

I thought I'd never see the Special edition Slash Amp again! THANK YOU! Brilliant video, once again! Another note, weight seems to just be falling off chappers more and more, it's great! Top playing! Well done chaps!

[@geordieinexile1973]

Oh man, I'd die for that set up!!!!! Good work and that tone, just huge tone, awesome!!!!

[@LukeStucatz]

That thing sounds amazing!

[@EventHorizonPrdctns]

Mr. Brownstone. Most awesome, pure, straighforward rock song GNR ever put out. And holy crap, I started laughing too! Had to cover my mouth cuz I was eating and couldn't stop myself from laughing, that's F'ing AWESOME!

[@AdamCross200]

Love how ridiculously good that sounds! So glad I've got myself that guitar! Sounds exactly like Slash!

[@pawcio247]

8:53 - here I am Capt. Slash used #36 mod by Frank Levi based on a Marshall 1977 (SL/A07422J) model 1959th which basically stands for Marshall 1959th Super Lead Plexi. The JCM800 (2203) which Capt is talking about was used as a #34 mod in recording of "Use Your Illusion" album (alongside with 2 different amps [I believe it was a Silver Jubilee and #36 mod used on AFD]).

[@simonsmanor]

i'll correct you Capt! The AFD is based on a hot rodded non master vol 1959T from the early 70's, I believe the tremolo circuit was taken out and an extra gain stage put in its place. The #34 mode is based on a modded JCM800 he had in the late 80's early 90's. It has 6550 (which are unusual in the UK) as Marshall used to ship the amps without valves and the local distributors put the valves in.

[@danibarack552]

you said those pickups were cheap... they are twice as expensive as my current guitar :))))))))

[@Tecnicasdeguitarra]

hahaha I feel you

[@Wh1te.fe1]

So you have a one hundred dollar guitar?...

[@harryevans1117]

+David Gonzalez he may do but when I was learning, I had a £10 brandless nylon string and after playing for about a year, I can now successfully play the solo to back in black on a Squire Bullet Strat. We all got a start somewhere.

[@yonikup2865]

Dani Barac they cost around 170-200$

[@Zuhlsmann1]

3:06 the face of satisfaction

[@RadeMusic]

The sweet child riff sounded almost completely alike! It has that feeling that the guitar as well as chappers is able to replicate :)

[@alfons1976]

That welcome to the jungle intro tone was 10/10!! Amazing amp!!

[@jordanb433]

Wow, I just watched this video again and this is the best tone I've ever heard. Especially on the neck pickup!

[@pacovl46]

Jordan Bannantine Sorry, I accidentally replied to the wrong guy.

[@jordanb433]

pacovl46 Oh, no problem dude. I'll delete my comment then, my bad!! Haha

[@d4dan98]

You guys are awesome, every video is entertaining.

[@caponi14]

what Lee say at 7:20 makes me love my AFD100 even more! He is totally right :)

[@IndoorRaccoon7]

Definitely agree with Captain, it is the best sounding Marshall I've heard recently, even just on a KZbin video. Also, when Rob is playing (what I believe is) the riff for "Paradise City," at about 8 minutes in, that is also the TIGHTEST sound I've ever heard come from a Marshall, and I LOVE it! \m/

[@TheSully807]

The afd100 is built on a jcm800 reissue that's been modded by Santiago with slash's guidance to capture the afd sound created by the combination of the derrig les Paul and the rented SIR #36 head which is believed to be a modded marshall jmp tremolo head which had the tremolo circuit modded to be another gain stage, it's the same amp george lunch rented, toured and recorded with before slash in dokken (just some info as the cap was asking)

[@totrodder97]

So glad you guys did another slash video and they both sound amazing, ish all be investing in one of these sooner or later

[@FelixIsMyName]

That's proper balls to the wall tone. Really stunned how identical it sounds to Slash's sound.

[@MashaT22]

How does the Epi Rosso Corsa's (or Vermillion's) sound and build quality compare to the Gibson version. I tried to see if you guys did a comparison video of both, but maybe I'm not finding it. I'd love to hear your input. I wonder if a new Gibson/Epi Slash guitar will be released soon since its been a few years since the last version. Part of me would love a Rosso Corsa or Vermillion, but I'm worried something even more kick ass will be released soon after my purchase . . . and while this is a great guitar, I'd be uber super pissed if I missed a new awesome feature. Also, I'd like to make a video request! Can you do a video that talks about the value of Les Pauls (both Gibson and Epi)? When you buy a Les Paul, it's like making an investment with the hope that it'll gain in value someday (not that I'd sell, but maybe the lucky inheritor would be insane enough to after I'm playing Stairway IN Heaven!). I'm curious if it makes sense to buy popular or unique colors and/or other features. I also know people change the action height, swap pickups and other hardware, etc., and I'd like to know how these choices may or may not affect value too. It's worth shit if you can't play the damn thing, but I'd hate to buy one and do some optional revision to it that I'll regret in the future. Since you guys clearly know your shit when it comes to Les Pauls, I'd love to see a vid on this subject! Thanks!!

[@JohnSmith-tb1jp]

the gibson is probably a better finish on the body a more matte finish as the epiphone's is a similar finish to a glossy cheaper guitar as it is of course but they both use the slash seymour duncan alnico 2 pickups ii think definantly seymour duncan slash signatures so they will have a similar sound maybe evern the same though but overall id say the gibson looks better of course with the headstock snd that but the epiphone is the closest and near quality to a gibson your gonna get as they gibson own epiphone now and have done for some time but hey most les pauls are lacking quality now as the lower more affordable ranges are built cheaper with cheaper labour meaning quality wise it isn't as good but the slash model will defiantly be made in america nashville explains why it is like £3000 new but the epi i dont know where that is bulit maybe china but the epi is still a good guitar anyways

[@fmvgomes]

This amp is the best lead tone machine I ever played specially if you pair it with a fat sounding Les Paul. It's insane crunchy Marshall tone out of this box.

[@deltafit]

Slash might not be the best player in the world, but my god for RIFFS...I reckon he's in the top 3 of all time. Can that man write a good lick!

[@wickedout2010]

That's a sick Slash guitar with a sick Marshall amp! It's amazing sounding!

[@KCAugustine]

Awww, Chappers was just a baby man-child back then. So cute!

[@howlingmine]

Yes Scott, it's all about the wood, and well all know you love stroking your wood.

[@bigleemac]

Love that amp, love that guitar through that amp. God damn you Chappers and Lee, the gas, it cometh.

[@MrPorsche27]

i think that sweet child is better sounding when played normally and not hybrid picked. Just sayin...

[@davidnuijten8133]

It actually was a 1957 marshall super tremolo but the tremolo circuit was modded and changed to a gain circuit

[@MB-yw3pv]

AND THE GUITAR HE USED FOR THE ALBUM WASENT EVEN A REAL GIBSON

[@vk2afl]

Ten? Eleven, surely! Great video guys, thanks. Long live plexi looking Marshalls. I love my Class 5 Head - my own little piece of plexi-land goodness.

[@stianstrana]

Finaly a classic Rob and Cap. video!

[@antonioalbares]

tune up before filming!!

[@elevenAD]

damn! that sounds fantastic!

[@BudMovies]

The amp that was used on AFD was a modded Marshall 1959 Super Lead. I recently saw the guitar at a music store and think about getting one now, gonna sound wicked through my Marshall YJM100!

[@ericwarner7787]

i miss this era of guitar youtube

[@BionicSammich]

The amp was the star of this video. I wish Marshall would reissue it!

[@jenson-2460]

Amazing video guys! This combination of amp and lp drives me nuts...thanks for that!

[@kendall280z]

dude I'm lot a particular Les Paul lover but that color is so sweeeeeet I love it so badass

[@davidcasey7828]

3-1/2 years later I stumble across this video, nice. I was fortunate enough to pick up one of these LPSS Vermillion's. I have #330. It is way cool that it is a Slash limited edition, but the real beauty is that these are proper LP's. Everyone who has played mine has been amazed. BTW, love the Chapman 2017 MLV in Iris! I am going to pick one up!

[@dietermartinez7174]

How you know the number?

[@nkmcfrln]

Slash remembered the amplifier that was used for AFD as being a JCM800 but it was actually a 1959 Super Lead.

[@W4RD1N8ER]

I wish I could have been in that room when he was playing that guitar sounds bloody amazing!

[@MrStuartantony]

Lol, so many people giving Rob hassle about his tuning. It's a Les Paul folks, they never sound right in tune, that's why they build 'em that way hehe.

[@elliothaskell4568]

Chappers' face at 10:09 is just fantastic!

[@westkamenoi]

The best job ever!! Being a guitar reviewer coz you play with all the guitar!!

[@rmnyc1]

Incredible. Alson ran her thru my Line 6 DT-50 via my Line 6 HD 500...the guitar was a beast. Then about 4 weeks ago I opened my case to practice and to my absolute horror there was an indent from mech pickup by the middle screw going horizontally up the body as well as to the edge of the fretboard to 18th fret. I blew a gasket in my brain and was like OH NOOOOO how could this be. So I sent her back to Gibson after bringing her to my friend who is a Gibson certified Luthier and before I took her

[@kbtrock]

I answered the question with FRAMPTON!!! Great video guys!!!

[@boynamedlen]

Prettiest color for an LP I've ever seen, closely followed by black and the blueburst the Epi LP standard came/comes in.

[@rustedhero888]

Slash's Custom-made Les Paul by Alan di Perna

If I have the vermillion in my collection i would probably wouldn't see the light of the day ever again

Believe me Lee... if you buy a standard sg, a marshall super lead and a cab 4x12 with greenbacks... you will sound like angus young...

Couldn't have made it a better review! Thanks! :)

[@davidwillis7660]

I have the AFD-100 amp plus Les Paul with the SlashPickups - you are 1200% it is the best sounding Marshall I've ever owned (and for your comment near the end of the video, I've also got a couple of JEMs :-)

[@wolfendoom7269]

That les Paul looks and sounds great

[@nickk1704]

It's pretty annoying hearing the sweet child o mine riff played with the middle finger!!!

[@HenkBenk88]

Yes his hybrid picking on sweet child sound so bad, and he has done it several times in their videos, each one sounding worse than the other, but since people always comment on it i think he does it as a joke more than a serious attempt at sounding true to the original

[@rushflare8208]

I know. I hate it when people play slash riffs and they don't use slashs style. But chappers and the cap are still awesome.

[@deadshot4245]

and tone knob not rolled back

[@Sniperfire24]

Slash plays it like that aswell but it's the hybrid picking and "legato"(not stopping each note before playing the next)

[@ravenjames3873]

who cares, you heard the riff that's all that matters.

[@mat2941]

Two of the things i want the most in this world

[@andy474x]

cool guitar and cool amp! great tone with this combo

[@rmnyc1]

Oops hit wrong button...anyway I was unable to purchase any of the previous Gibson Slash LP's until I purchased a Rosso Corsa from AMS as they offered 12 mo 0% financing. I was stoked, until it came in the wrong case (regular Gibson USA case) and smashed to pieces toggle switch. AMS was great in sending me a new one next day even before I returned the first one. thanks to Joe in Tech dept! I slapped Ernie Ball RPS 11's on her and have the IK Multimedia Slash Amplitube interface and sounded
