I'm here because of the new video
Same brother
I only discovered the whole meme because of the new video cxD
Pirates fu**ed me all day long, but then I took Jack Sparrow on his knee!?
xD
same, 2019
I used to live in ancient Egypt, but then i took a Pharoah to the knee
I used to be a credible gear reviewer, but then I took a Rob Chapman to the knee.
I love it when I randomly do some research on an older amp, and unwittingly discover you two laughing your asses off. Thanks for the smiles Capt Lee!
I used to be a construction worker, but then I took a wheelbarrow to the knee. :)
"I used to be in a birdwatching show with Bill Oddie, but then I took a sparrow to the knee"
Captain Lee is a legend.
This is beyond satire. It's like every episode of the office compressed into one and set in a guitar shop.
these were discontinued and i'd like to think it was your fault :)
Chandler Crane they took an arrow to the knee

I sincerely feel that this video is the reason why Ampeg Discontinued this range, and hence why I can't get the extension cab for my GVT15-112. Damn you Chappers and Capt'n. Damn you both to hell. And then I took an arrow to the knee.
I used to suffer from aplastic anemia.
Then I took a marrow to the knee.
This vid is a bit like "dinner for one" for guitar geeks ...
Still fun to watch after 3 years ... thank you!
Happy new year.
I just bought one of these amps and this video is part of the reason why.
I used to be middle class
But then i took a harrow to the knee
I was going to say that this was the greatest amp review ever...
...but then I took an arrow to the knee
(Btw, what does that even mean?!?!)
Late reply, woohoo! It's an old phrase which means "I got married."
@@raptovis5068 Even later reply - Most likely a reference to an Elder Scrolls game "I used to be an adventurer like you, but then I took an arrow to the knee" (which as Raptovis said, was a euphemism for getting married). I'd say Skyrim, but I *think* it predates Skyrim and Skyrim just referenced the earlier one.
Mate skyrim
How much weed did you guys smoke before you made this video ?
+Michael Brohl Check out the big bag of Doritos stashed behind the amp.
Why do you think Captain has the glasses?
All of it!
Someone actually recommended me that very same amplifier they were using in the second half of the video...
And then he took an arrow to the knee.
Capt's laugh is so contagious. :'D
The face of the Captain with the sunglasses is EPIC.
Capts jam at 6:57 is one of his best. Beautiful
I wonder where can i find this drum &bass loop
Mick Taylor is very much alive, as others stated already. GVT (I think) stands for Guitar Valve Technology, which is a nod to SVT (Super Valve Technology) the 300w bass amps Ampeg introduced in 1969. Shortly after, the Stones, in desperate need of LOUD amps, asked Ampeg to provide for their US tour which they did. The Stones used them for both bass and guitar amplification and made Ampeg SVT's legendary. But later Ampeg took an arrow to the knee and now their amps are made in China.
gosh i love it when the intra webz, bringz me old vids...
Sparrow to the knee had me dying.. haven't even played skyrim and I love that shit.
From what little bit ingot to hear in the video : as a bass player it still sounds like a bass amp clean. The dirt is very. 70's classic rock ...
I used to grow herbs, but then I took a yarrow to the knee.
Rob is already jamming out the Part of the plan riff here and yet it's been made into a song just now, 7 years later :D
10:39 hahaha when the captains voice cracks a little bit. HILARIOUS!
Best bleeps ever. Thank you Keith Merrow!
I think someone was playing a little too much skyrim when this video was made lol
Lee- Mick Taylor is not the dead one from the Rolling Stones. That's Brian Jones. Mick Taylor was the second lead player in the Stones who replaced Brian. He left because he'd (taken an arrow to the knee and) had enough and was replaced by Ron Wood. :)
Lol the sparrow to the knee joke cracked me up! :p
Made for a good laugh, but it is kind of a shame that you didn't give it the attention it deserves. These are actually really nice, very tweakable amps.. kinda like the early Mesa amps in the sense that fiddling with the knobs offers a wide variety of tone options (The amp doesn't really s o u n d like a Boogie, though). I think they really shine on the clean channel.. roll back the mid knob and they get into classic Fender clean territory, a little darker but still a lot of lush shimmery highs. They take pedals amazingly well on this channel, dirt pedals in particular.. and when you turn the mid knob up, there is a really nice relation between the amp's natural compression and the pedal that allows to hunt for really nice drive tones. Oh, and humbuckers works well, but this amp looooves single coil guitars, and is a fab match with both strats and teles, not to mention an LPjr. with a p90!
Lee missed a great opportunity to answer "Yes." This video clearly killed Ampeg's guitar amp business! I was an avid gardener until I took a barrow to the knee.
20:40
lee used to make arrows on the knee jokes...
then i took a chappers to the face... XD
Normally I hate Skyrim jokes, but watching these two make countless gags about varying implements to knees makes me crack up XD
You guys genuinely have a good time when you do this
I can't stop crying i'm laughing so hard xD The sparrow joke did me in x'D
i meant to watch this video when it was new, but then i took an arrow to the keyboard.
I used to be a brickies labourer but then I took a wheelbarrow to the knee
I don't just come here to check out the gear, I come here to have a laugh whilst checking new gear!
I thought the whole arrow to the knee thing was going out of control. But you guys just pushed it even further...
Love going back and watching the old vids....definitely been drinking
Probably the best product demo videos on UA-cam.
Even I feel responsible to Ampeg for this video. Sorry Ampeg...
My primary amp is a 1966 Ampeg Gemini I. I have tried dozens and dozens of guitar amps over the past 15+ years, and have yet to find anything that has such a sweet, articulate, and sparkling tone as the Gem 1. I've come across a few that came close, namely the Matchless DC-30 being the closest to it, but even with it's 2x12" setup, it can't capture the low mids and bass that my Ampeg can. Truly an amazing amp company that excels at bass amps, but also perfected the guitar amp many decades ago.
... back 9 years later .... still funny as hell!
This video should have way more likes than it does.
I have the gvt 52-212 and it is a monster amp.
Tyron Smith Are you able to run it through an extension cabinet? I found a 1x12 for sale, which is fine on the 25-watt half power setting but at the full 50-watts I'd like to run it thru a 2x12 cab with a set of '77 Celestions I took out of a Marshall JMP that was turned into a head.
Sparrow to the knee.. haha..
should wait to smoke after the video! lol
Damn, even dangerously intoxicated, Chappers can still shred like a king.
@Glockenator Basically all of the guards in Skyrim say "I used to be an adventurer like you, but then i took an arrow in the knee". For some reason it caught on and now its everywhere.
I wish they made the 50 watt as a head. Makes very little sense that the 15 watt is available as a head but the 50 watt is only available as a combo. I'd get the 15 watt, I'm just not that crazy about the 6v6 sound with high-gain stuff, and that's what I'd be getting it for. High-gain rhythm guitar stuff with a clean 6L6 power section is exactly what I need, but I don't want a combo. I was just as disappointed that the new 60 watt version of the 6505 is also only available as a combo.
Sparrow to the knee had me laughing
I used to be on Harry Potter's side, and then I took a Carrow to the knee
lol at hearing Holy Fire in a video from two years ago. just shows how much time you spent developing it. Awesome Job (y)
I do NOT want to go to work today. But I've laughed so much watching this video, that I don't really care anymore. Thanks guys!
Liked this video on the basis of the sparrow to the knee joke
These guys are professionals....let that sink in....they are payed for this.....i love it.
The combo sounded really sweet there for a sec when Lee upped the Mid when it was clean.
You know shit's going down from the start when Chappers has that hat.
Eight people were shot in the knee...
Chappers, you guys owe me a new monitor after that sparrow to the knee joke. It is now soaked in coffee :(
@n1ll3r Children watch our videos as well as adults, you should see the complaints if we don' t bleep!
I was going to audition the Robin Hood themed cover band "The Merry Men" but then I took an arrow to the knee
PERFECT AMP FOR THE STONES :D
Rob, is there any chance at all to do a super short re-demo of the GVT15h cranked up? I'm really interested in this amp, but they're still pretty thin on the gournd.
Drugs... They make you happy. Haha, this is one of the best Andertons videos ever made.
whats the song at 16:00 ??
dont get me wrong, i love these vids, and a good arrow joke, but I'm quite interested in the GVT15H so, would of liked to see a more well done review by these guys, oh well lol
I used to like running around Northumbria, then I took a Jarrow to the knee.
@MonkeyZo0 P.S. I am unable to find the amps on the Andertons website. Are they even available yet?
Laughed my ass off
These guys had the same reaction to Skyrim that I did
Keep in mind, I would’ve been 10 years old when it came out.
whats that tune played at 14:17
Ive heard it alot in these videos but never knew the name of that track.
I like the fact they are talking about an episode of the chase where he cracked up at fanny schmellar lol :D
@RobChappers
i had no idea you were currently developing a tele style guitar.
i'm looking' for a solid axe to buy as well. please keep us in the loop!
The captain used to be able to say this, then he took an arrow to the knee!
what is the song you used played instead of a "beep" at the beginning (about 1:00)???
@antihax91 Yes the clean channels were similar, obviously a head room difference :-)
I started getting a bit depressed when it the video became more informative
Sounds awesome but will it take a metal distortion so so you can go all plethora and switch between sweet cleans and pulverizing distortion quickly
Rob, do you ship your guitars to the USA yet? If so what would the one your playing run? The LP style, is it the ML1?
Very soft, muddy sounding but in a lovely kind of way. I'd have one for lo fi mildly saturated rock, stoner-sludge-doom stuff (btw, Josh Homme anybody?) but my wallet took an arrow in the knee.
dude on the left, you have the best job ever
Hey Chappers, So I was wondering do you guys ship all the way to mexico? I would love me some ML-2 action
please please please answer ... this amp or marshall jtm-1 for blues ? i don't want to use any pedal.... now, please suggest me .... this or marshall jtm1 ?
@RobChappers wow, 12 days after the release of the EP and ur already playing Just a Bullet away! Respect!
Sounds like a godly amp filled with lots of tone! Besides the fairly basic setup, with that cool EQ, I bet you can get a million and one tones on it. Seems super versatile. I like that 1x12. Yum. That crunch!!
@TheBallTicklers Great idea, we are on it :-)
I had forgotten how annoying the arrow jokes were.
+1000 for "Troll! In the dungeons!"
BTW! Rob, where did you get all of that hats?! I want one too!
I reckon the cap'n sounds awesome when he adds a little bit of rock to that blues (and some overdrive too). Loved the Joe Bonamassa esc solo in the middle.
DAMN DEM KNEE-SEEKING ARROWS!
How much (spiked) Eggnog did you guys have before (and during) the making of this video? :D
I used to believe in fortune telling, until I took a Tarot in the knee.
nice:) how would these amps compare to the laney vc30 cleans tho? been using a 2x12 vc30 for years and have yet to find a punchier clean tone
I was going to watch this video.... But then I took an arrow to the knee.
"That Ampeg thing can go fuck for itself."- Lemmy Kilmister
Could have been a worse review, guys.
I wonder what would happen if you asked Lee if there ever were electric guitars without jacks.
Basically plexis with master volumes! Gunna get me one of these suckers.
Oh yeah, these things are monsters. I tried the combo you are talking about in Guitar Center and you can get Fender clean, Mesa high gain and everything in between. The sound incredible in person too, just like modded plexis but with less middle and more balls.
