Kyle. First off I'm a HUGE FAN of your channel. Keep ripping man. Secondly, I'm floored by this amp. I'm sold on it. I'll be grabbing one for sure. It encompasses the best of Marshall with modern. What an amp!! Cheers from Alberta CANADA. 🍻🇨🇦
While I have Marshalls, Peaveys, VHT, Sovtek, Blackheart and many other amps, I now own three Ceriatone amps. My first Ceriatone amplifier was a 50-watt Chupacabra... that started my Ceriatone journey... I was hooked. The second Ceriatone was a Plexi 51 All Access (every Plexi version ever made 1968-1973, all in one amp, at the flick of a few switches). My latest is a modified 100/50- watt Silver Jubilee 2555. I added a resonance control, TAD mustard Caps, PPIMV, Buffered FX loop, 3-way bright switch and Ruby Tubes...it's to die for.... Delivered @ under $2k. I'm never going back to assembly Line disposable amps... that cost 3x the price. Ceriatone is the bomb, for sure.
Nice tone. The cab is very important here. This Bogner gives some warm and woody tone to the sound. I use this cab with the Soldano SLO100. One of the best cab ever.
@@stoicscorpio3838 The Bogner 412 loaded with V30 sounds woody and warm. This is perfect with Plexi and SLO, amps with extra bite. The Soldano 4x12 cab (the one atm in production) gives tons of mids : good for a kind of clean and lead guitar, bad for fat riffs. With the Bogner it's balanced. Don't use the Bogner cab with Dual Rectifier 2 channels from the 90's for example : it's going to be muddy. An Engl cab is better here : it's more sharpened. The Bogner cab is good with the Rectifiers multi-watts witch are no more the same amps at all (tighter low end). If you want to go doom and stoner, Matamp or Orange cabs are better (mid scoop) with every heads, not for soloing but rhythms. With something else than the V30, my favorite cabs are the Friedman. The one loaded with Greenback is very good for classic rock (perfect for the channel 2 of a Diezel VH4). The Friedman with Heritage sounds dark for beautiful deep cleans. Tested in Ampete 444. What we are talking here is equalization, not a question of tastes. The good point with the Bogner : if your Soldano head is a boa skin one, you can order a Bogner cab with a matched cover. I own 10 cabs, all 4x12, so I had days to test. The Bogner cab is beautiful for the clean because I engage the bright of the SLO. It's hot for the riffs, and huge for solos. You can play everything with this combo. But depends your style of course. My goal was to get a 90's tone between Corrosion of Conformity and Megadeth for the riffs. George Lynch, Zakk Wylde and Van Halen for the leads. Maybe not your cup of tea...
Out of all your amps this one sounds easily the best. I owned a couple and so did tons of other amps like bogners, diezels, friedmans, etc., Chupa and King Kong were probably my favorite.
Mine is a pretty early version, the pussy trimmer is inside the chassis, underneath. where the guts are! Super inconvenient haha, I use mine for 70s type tones and I’m not really sure where the pussy trimmer should live as far as how hot to set it.
Yo! Because of this video and the one that Derek did, I FINALLY decided and ordered what I call the King Chupacabra 100! Haha So it's Chupa inside the King Kong platform to have a 3 channel amp! I asked for some cosmetic customization as well reagdring tolex and knobs so it will look its own thing! Can't wait to receive it! Since we play in the same type of genres, this video helped me a great deal! Cheers man!
@@belligerentamateur I think so! Hahaha If people like the look and sound of it (I'll try to record some stuff), I thought of asking Nik if he wants to sell it ''as is'' and call it King Chupacabra ;) The front will look like this (but on the KK platform of course) : www.ceriatone.com/hey-what-103/?fbclid=IwAR2PrwLSCuegKS4-3Zmp8spSB99f96LMMSnqtOfVlD6zToiMKFJyMxURAOQ with the Leviathan knobs!
@@lordgraga I love it! It’s my main band practice amp (I’m using my Peavey 3120 for gigs because there’s no way I bring this piece of art at a show in case something happens to it lol Took almost a year to receive it!). Sometimes I have options paralysis because of all the switches and stuff(it’s not a plug and play type of amp) but it sounds phenomenal overall. The price is really “cheap” for what you get. I highly recommend if you’re keen on waiting. It’s very versatile and that’s what I love about it because it doesn’t do just one sound. It can be a tight trash punk metal amp as it can do soft rock, doom, etc
#1 amp in the world and #1 demo for that amp. Always an amazing job on your demos man. You should be in the studio with every metal band making them sound killer. I've never heard all these amps sound so good. Cheers Kyle
Sounds sick! I'm debating on this one or the AH50. Sounds like AH50 would be more suited for "Hard Rock" while the Chupacabra would be more metal? What do you think?
+1. I'd like to see you do a Molecular video too. I had a Yeti 50 and a Molecular 50. Both were pretty killer. Haven't had a chance to try the Chupa yet.
@@bubbastain You sold both? I don’t know if Nik can put the Chupacabra OD inside the King Kong platform as he can do it with the Molecular. I’m still leaning towards the latter but man this demo makes me think haha It sounds even nastier than the Molecular.
Awesome demo, dude. Subscribed. The best chupa/yeti metal demo i have seen so far. Why dont u A/B the modern era of this monster to badlander and stealth using the same riff since u have them all - would be awesome.
Thanks man, that's what I was going for. Maybe down the road I can do a big high gain shootout with the same amp. Unfortunately, those videos take a lot of time, which is something I don't currently have! Lol
Ok so I just dumped a 6 channel flagship Marshall to get this amp. No Deciding between which series. Cause if I can get even half the tone of whats rockn my brain In your demo I'm good as gold 1st payment sent Thanks for the lead I'm all in with the chupacabra
Levi depending on your budget, you ask Nik to have the Chupa inside their King Kong Platform, which means you'd have a 2 channel amp (Xlean + Chupa OD circuit) + a solo boost if you need more than 1 channel.
I've owned one of these for about 3 months now and still haven't hooked up an OD... the amp is so clean it's criminal. I also run my MESA preamp into the FX return sometimes and just use the power amp and it is heaven.
Awesome video of an awesome amp! I just watched a video by an older English gentleman named Tony McKenzie and he showed and went through the guts of one of these. Incredible! How an amp should be made. How in the world Nik can offer a quality amp like this at those prices is beyond me. I love my EVH 5150 III 50 watt and I was considering the Stealth model. But for something different, I WILL be ordering a Ceriatone Chupacabra. Think I’ll go for the 100 watt because......why not?!
The ceriatone is definitely wetter and more loose in the low end. A little bit more variety in tones on tap. If you like super dry and punchy articulation, go Splawn, if you like the slightly wetter 80's feel, go Ceriatone
Cool very dynamic amplifier with own character. But for example, compared to JCM800, it is quite dark. And the point here is not the lack of high or medium frequencies, but the nature of the amplifier is dark. You change the frequency with switches, but the darkness doesn't go anywhere. Just changing frequencies on the "dark" side. By the way, only then, with additional listening on other channels and especially on this, I clearly heard this. In general, when choosing in its direction, this must be taken into account. Good luck to everyone. What do you thinck about it Kyle ?
I think you kind of nailed it. It's a dark amp that has frequencies in the right places to cut through. Overall, the general voicing seems more Mesa than Marshall, but it has it's own thing going on. I liked it the least on the gain switch I spent the most time on, go figure.
@@belligerentamateur Recently, I just finished building my amplifier according to the Niks scheme, but with little differences. I agree with you there are something gloomy like Mesas do. But at the same time with the Marshall character of overload. In terms of frequencies, everythings fine. I only meant that during the movement of the middle and highs (on my amplifiers at least) their magnitude changes, as it should be, but the nature of the "gloom" of this machine does not change. Moreover, for certain tasks it is very cool fiture. Just now I want to change this picture a little bit. I plan to make the sound of mine a little more open and "bright" . Overall the amp is just great . By the way, the sound of this amplifier on your channel turned out to be the most honest on my taste.
This thing sounds fantastic. Do you know if this sounds much different than the Yeti or Gargoyle? Can you get certain sounds from one that you can't get from the other?
@@belligerentamateur Ok ok. I saw the Gargoyle on their website but they didn't really give a description. I just discovered these Ceriatone amps about two weeks ago. They are going to take a lot of money away from the big boys when the word gets out about these things. Take care.
Ok, I ordered the Molecular (Cameron Atomica clone) in back in June, but now told Nik I want to get the King Kong (channel switching Cameron CCV clone) instead.
I think for these amps is imperative to hear them through greenbacks. The hollowness in the mids that you note is totally different when you are running the greenies. We played them through framus cobra cabs with the greenies. Totally slice and dice ginsu shit.
Just opened up my Yeti 50 and apparently it’s mostly a chupa. It was one of the first yeti models so it shared even more parts with the chup. Hopefully it’s the best of both worlds haha
to my ears, the higher frequencies sorta have a twangy nasally sound that I dont care for too much, almost like stepping a wah pedal on just a little bit when it brings the highs in & it gets to that certain point where it doesnt soound very good, but the gain & lows sound real good & the highs too,just a tad bit twangy nasally somehow.
Please review the JCM 900 MkIII. I had one a few years ago and it was such a killer amp. People needa stop sleepin on it. Or keep sleepin on it so I can still get good ones for next to nothing
Hey Kyle is there any chance of borrowing this amp back and maybe trying a demo video of the Legendary Tones HOT MOD V2 EVO? Or for that matter maybe a video with a whole variety of modded Marshalls? I saw the video with the Friedman Runt 50 and the HOT MOD V2 and I thought it sounded great! Keep up the great work! You do a terrific job demoing gear and posting videos with content that a guitarist actually wants to watch and hear!
Wtf do I dare say rhat sounds BETTER than my Marshall, yes I can get Angus, Hoffmann, and E. Lee but this is Virgin birth of all three in one tone. STUNNED!!
The 800 will be just like a 223. Nik can add custom mods to it for you if you want. The CHUP and YETI are very similar, with the Yeti being tighter and having more mids.
@@belligerentamateur Yeah I spoke with Nik about them today. He said the Chupa is brighter than the Yeti but they are essentially the same. I think I might buy Mike Hasty's Jubilee clone
I used to have a Ceriatone JCM800 and its the best amp I've ever owned. I played it with a Marshall 4x12 loaded with greenbacks and it sounded massive.. Ended up trading it for a 6505 and a Single Rectifier and I've regretted it ever since.
@@belligerentamateurthe website says the chupa is tighter, you don't find this to be the case? Hard to believe any marshall clone can be even tighter than this one.
You forgot to mention they sell these as a kit so the hobbyist can build a killer amp for themselves and choose options. I've built two of these amps and they're way cheaper if you build them yourself.
I am SURE that the DECIMATOR is ON but it does NOT color the SOUND. The MXR OD is absolutely not ON, it just has a BUMP knob that is LIT whether the drive is ON or NOT. I am SURE you will have SOMETHING to SAY regardless of this REPLY though :0
Couldn't you at least spend two percent of your time proving it had a clean sound instead of slamming it with a sledgehammer for the whole fifteen minutes, you know, just for the hell of it? Sheez, that was ridiculous.
I don’t think the intend of this amp was really to ever have it clean in the first place. With an amp with 2 gain controls it should be obvious. You’d be better off checking out the overtone series
Thank you for throwing a microphone in front of the cab rather than recording it with a phone mic from across the room.
No doubt! Not enough quality demos of these great amps out there!
I agree! And thank you for not using IR's 💪
The best Ceriatone demo I’ve heard so far 👍🏼
Thanks so much! Hope it was helpful!

I have this head and it’s extremely versatile. What speakers are in the cabinet your using? I’m currently using it with a marshall with g12t75 .
In this demo, v30, but I tend to like Marshall style amps with K100 or T75, depending, to even them out a tad
Legendary tones from this amp. I'm gettin the 100w version ASAP. JCM800 on steroids.
Great demo man. I wonder how the Ceriatone compares to a Splawn, they seems to have some similarities in design/features.

Nice tones
Best w/o boost👍👍👍
This thing sounds killer Kyle.
Gooz 🦖
Does this have the buffered effects loop? Would you recommend?
You can order it with one for an extra $75.
That amp crushes!!! I’m torn between this amp and the Gargoyle and the Molecular. I think I’m going to finally order one next month.
Same as you man! haha I've been debating with myself for two months now!
I haven't tried either of those two but I'd really like to!
My chupa is being made rn, channel switching is senseless when you dial in something that massive and inspiring
Ok, I ordered the Molecular (Cameron Atomica clone) in back in June, but now told Nik I want to get the King Kong (channel switching Cameron CCV clone) instead.
I think for these amps is imperative to hear them through greenbacks. The hollowness in the mids that you note is totally different when you are running the greenies. We played them through framus cobra cabs with the greenies. Totally slice and dice ginsu shit.
Even with no boost, that amp sounds really awesome, comparing to many other Plexi clones.
Just opened up my Yeti 50 and apparently it’s mostly a chupa. It was one of the first yeti models so it shared even more parts with the chup. Hopefully it’s the best of both worlds haha
I know they're close to begin with, but didn't know they went through design changes.
Interesting!
What speakers are in the Bogner cab?
Vintage 30
So your conclusion is, that it doesn't take boost pedals like a Tubescremer, very well? Did you try out different style pedals? Thank you.
Takes pedals just fine in Plexi mode.
What mic? Sounds pretty good. I need that mic. Very responsive.
Just a regular old sm57
to my ears, the higher frequencies sorta have a twangy nasally sound that I dont care for too much, almost like stepping a wah pedal on just a little bit when it brings the highs in & it gets to that certain point where it doesnt soound very good, but the gain & lows sound real good & the highs too,just a tad bit twangy nasally somehow.
You sold me on this amp man. Will order one later this year. Have you tried pairing it with a rectifier?
I havent! But I'm sure they'd pair well as Mesa and Marshall tend to do!
Anybody know a demo with someone who knows how to play something other than power chords?
Great Review. What's with the picking hand.
Lol what do you mean?
This amp almost sounds like an HM-2 dialed in right! sick
Heard that too. Maybe people don’t like that, but I personally think it sound supah sic asf like that.
Man Kyle, sounds unreal. Do you know if the King Kong 100 can get the same tones and more?
Yes, it's a 2 channel Yeti or Chup with a clean channel
Please review the JCM 900 MkIII. I had one a few years ago and it was such a killer amp. People needa stop sleepin on it. Or keep sleepin on it so I can still get good ones for next to nothing
I just missed out on one for $650 the other day
Best sounding amp so far
It sounded killer here. Loved making this one!
I had seen ceriatones around, but never checked them out, hot on my radar now

Bought it back from Derrick, but there really is no need for the hot mod in this amp. It already has insane amounts of gain and low end in stock form
@@belligerentamateur what tubes are you using in it?
This was the metal version of the pottery scene from the movie Ghost.

I am SURE that the DECIMATOR is ON but it does NOT color the SOUND. The MXR OD is absolutely not ON, it just has a BUMP knob that is LIT whether the drive is ON or NOT. I am SURE you will have SOMETHING to SAY regardless of this REPLY though :0
Shit man....now i want one :D
Go get you a present
Holy crap does this sound tasty
Man, this amp and Omega sound very similar. I thought Omega was actually something special 😭😭😭😭
They literally sound nothing alike. Haha
@@belligerentamateur thank God then. I can buy a King Kong, Obsidian, Molecular and Leviathan and be completely safe then. Good.
You remind me of Matt Damon.
Get it every day, haha
how can we call this affordable. 1 person has 200.00 another has 900.00 , so I guess its affordable to people with enough money lol
Looks like skinnier Heavy Metal Matt Damon....
crap box!!
Couldn't you at least spend two percent of your time proving it had a clean sound instead of slamming it with a sledgehammer for the whole fifteen minutes, you know, just for the hell of it? Sheez, that was ridiculous.
No
I don’t think the intend of this amp was really to ever have it clean in the first place. With an amp with 2 gain controls it should be obvious. You’d be better off checking out the overtone series
@@Zoso7227 Every amp has a clean. It's just a matter of how good it is and how loud it is.
