Y'all are doing great with the videos. Please don't let any negativity discourage you. Some people get jealous and show their nasty side. A lot of people from all over talk about the great deals and beautiful guitars they have bought from Chicago Music Exchange and I am proudly one of them. Thanks.
Great demo of the Swart. I think most face-off vids tend to show only one setting which the player thinks is optimal. You guys showed the full range , which was much appreciated. They designed the tweed cabinet to look like a Supro- definitely looked like that in the screencap.
1) I had a Two Rock Custom Reverb Signature Version 2 @50 watts with Two Rock 2x12 cabinet, 2) Fuchs ODS/SLX 50 watt combo with Celestion 12/65. 3) Brown Note DLite 44 with EVL. 4) Snider 484 that was killer, 5) Carr Slant 6V head, with 15” speaker, Carr Slant 6V combo as well,Blankenship Fat Boy Supreme with Reverb, 2x 1974 Princeton Reverbs with 12” Jensen Alnico 5 w/ bell , 2x1973 Vibrolux Reverbs, a 1975 Super Reverb, all at the same time!! I have since unloaded all but one Princeton. I would have my guitar buddies over for amp fest. My ears loved it for a while!!!!
I sold off a serious vintage Fender amp collection after buying a Bartel Starwood. It just sounded better than the others and I never used them. The two piece version is easier to haul.
Not going by the demo but from ownership and professional player friends that own them. The Matchless you need to hear in person, the compression from UA-cam just doesn't do the amp justice. The amp is designed off of a Vox, it is handwired with a lot of headroom and honestly you do not need pedals to play it if you don't desire fuzz distorted sounds. It will not hide mistakes like some amps do, it is clean, powerful, and responsive. They must of lightened it up, a 2 x12 used to weigh 96 pounds to ship. That is why I own the head & cab. Single coils, hum buckers and P90's sound great with this amp. Bad Cat started with Mark Sampson one of the prior owners of Matchless, major similarities. Mark left and started his own company Star Amps. Both guys Mark and Phil are really super nice, helpful, and willing to fully explain the amps if you are sincere and seeking the truth. They go out of their way to help honest customers. I heard Mark is building boutique audio stereo amps now and will custom build an amp for individuals. I promise you that you can sound great on stage with a Matchless and no pedals if you are a serious dedicated musician. Thanks.
With all these magnatones behind you, I think a Magnatone Panoramic Stereo could have been added to the shootout :) The most amazing combo amp out there!
I was a hesitant to watch this videos, I was afraid I’d find yet another amp. They all sound great, I really wouldn’t turn any of them down, but it made me realize just how happy I am with my Carr Mercury V.
Bartel sure ticks all boxes (apart from the pricepoint maybe...) #2 Benson, and Swart if you're looking for a bedroom amp with great features. No offence to Evan but the G string of the Strat was a tad flat in the first demos, and a bit more variety would have been nice in the playing although I know it's an amp tone demo... Nice vid, thanks for uploading !
You should check out the Silk tone, parallel, pure class A at 25 W. The tone I can get out of this amp is incredible. Best Tampa I’ve ever owned not cheap though.
The Starwood had a lot more to show you. It has a unique & active treble/bass controls in that when set lower you get more of a British vibe, at noon where you had it is tweed/brownface and at max it is blackface.The artels are incredible amps.
Some great ones. Benson amps are really cool. My favorites of the last year have been Magnatone and Amplified Nation, and I really like the Tone King Royalist as well.
Which AN do you have? I have the Wonderland Overdrive and A&G and love them both. My WO even though its 100 watt can get amazing tones at even lower volumes than the A&G (50 watt) but the A&G also sounds pretty great at lower volumes.
I have a Bartel Roseland and you're right, the drive sounds are awesome. If you want that "American" clean or "Blackface" sound crank both the bass and treble knobs and it sounds fantastic.
Yes please 😃 Love seeing awesome gear that I can’t afford! There’s always Lotto, so hey, you never know? Seriously, I love seeing what’s out there. Some of these amps you can tell are really good. I have a Carl’s Custom 5e3 clone with an excellent master and push/pull eq that cleans up the circuit. It wasn’t cheap (…less than $2k all in) sounds like million bucks. Mark I Z28 Dr Z, that has a crazy amount of harmonic content. Used around $1100. Love ❤ the boutique bespoke builders!
Thanks for showing when an amp starts to break-up which is nothing more than static to my ears. Clean headroom and tone quality for Rock a Billy and Surf is what's important to me. Also, attenuation is a must have for practice with tone. Once an amp is overdriven reverb gets muddy, and I'm done. Most amp reviewers can't wait to go into trash settings like that's all that matters. I like the Benson
@@MartinBabst I have owned several Mark Bartel built amps. Great amps for sure if you like that sound. Step above Two Rock and Top Hat...probably not. In the same league, yes. But, glad you found what you love.
Hello Evan, nice job doing all that demoing for us. Everything sounded very close to your descriptions however, lets talk Matchless. I believe that you started off with the wrong knob positions and you were really never able to get that beautiful instrument to do its thing. That said, I also believe that if you had put the Master at 930-10 o'clock you would have had a better starting point with more feel and more tone at your disposal making it easier while demoing, it seemed a bit choked in the headroom dept.(considering limited time to demo it fairly and your being unfamiliar with it) and I believe that had you plugged into a 1 X 12 it would have been a bit less to handle since it being your first time in pool ;)). Keep up the good work your chops are good and so is your attitude.
Nothing else comes close to the spacious onboard reverb and deep throbbing bias tremolo of any Swart amps. From a simple bluegrass to stupid ambient space travel
Benson and Carr sounded pretty great. Unfortunately that is the worst I have ever heard a Matchless sound. The key is the relationship between the Master Volume and the PreAmp Volume. I love seeing these types of videos. Keep them coming.
I like the player! However, I don’t know if the bass was left up really high once the amps volumes were cranked, but they sounded really farty when cranked. I understand some people like that flubby blown-out sound, but man… it makes such a positive difference to my ear when you turn bass nearly off when cranking an amp way up like that. Cool demo nonetheless.
I had the bartel at one point It’s not super intuitive and definitely not an amp to test with all knobs at noon. That’s probably where it sounds the worst. The eq is hugely interactive ong with the master. You can get anything from clean blackface fender (if I remember right with both the bass and treble way up) to Marshall (with the eq way down if I remember) it breaks up way more or less from the settings on the eq. You have to spend some time with it to wrap your head around it. But it doesn’t sound great just at noon eq wise
@ yeah man those amps really need a deep dive. They really can get a crazy amount of sounds in one amp from one channel but are definitely not easy to just dial in like a normal amp conceptually. I sold mine because of that since I like simple fenders. But they can sound fantastic
Bartel fuzz/Overdrive sounds like a benson Nathan with less top end. Benson Earhart is the top boost one. Not totally a clean fender style one to choose for this shoot out.

@ I don’t think that it is too much to ask that if someone genuinely wanted to find out as much as possible (in a video format) about these very expensive amps, almost anybody else could have put on a more cogent presentation.
Great demo! Liked the Benson cleans the best. Was shocked at the Matchless...if you'd told me it was an old Crate solid state in the wood enclosure I'd believe you. Thought it wasn't just the worst in the video, but one of the worst sounding amps I've ever heard in a demo. To each their own, cheers!
🤘🤘 To each their own! Sounded great in the room. We shot that one last and the shoot took a lot longer than planned so we definitely spent the least amount of time with that one. We may need to do a full feature on Matchless to show off how good they can be. Thanks for watching!
nice presentation. strange how these amps are so expensive, there are a demo of the $500 20 watt Marshall Origin on Segeborne's channel that sounds 10x as expensive
The Benson has a custom ceramic speaker, the Carr has an Eminence Patriot series speaker, the Swart has a Mojotone BV-30H, the Bartel has a Fane Alnico A60 Speaker and the Matchless has two Celestion Creamback G12H75. 🤘🤘
i have one Pure Tone Amps, model the cosmonaut, customized, personalized, in Pink DeSoto made by Serpetsidakis Michalis in Crete Greece, with celestion neocreamback with real gold leaf at a balsa wood cabinet without front panel. i could sell it for 3k. european. i live in spain.

I haven't paid more than $3600 for a Z-80 yet, and it doesn't really do the collapsy puny tones quite like these little Boutique rascals, but its pretty good at loud.

Mark is back with bad cat now
@@jsauce311 Yes. I just saw yesterday the video Bad Cat posted with Mark offering the limited 25th year anniversary amp preorder request.
With all these magnatones behind you, I think a Magnatone Panoramic Stereo could have been added to the shootout :) The most amazing combo amp out there!
This was such a fun and entertaining video to watch. I wish I could play the guitar like you. It was so pleasant. Rock on 🤘🏾
🤘🤘
I was a hesitant to watch this videos, I was afraid I’d find yet another amp. They all sound great, I really wouldn’t turn any of them down, but it made me realize just how happy I am with my Carr Mercury V.
Thanks for watching!! 🤘🤘 Love the Mercury V!
Great amp! Carr makes great stuff
Bartel sure ticks all boxes (apart from the pricepoint maybe...) #2 Benson, and Swart if you're looking for a bedroom amp with great features. No offence to Evan but the G string of the Strat was a tad flat in the first demos, and a bit more variety would have been nice in the playing although I know it's an amp tone demo...

The tone in the background music rules.
You should check out the Silk tone, parallel, pure class A at 25 W. The tone I can get out of this amp is incredible. Best Tampa I’ve ever owned not cheap though.
We've had a few Silktone amps over that last year, love them!
The Starwood had a lot more to show you. It has a unique & active treble/bass controls in that when set lower you get more of a British vibe, at noon where you had it is tweed/brownface and at max it is blackface.The artels are incredible amps.

Hey I didn’t know Ralph Macchio now does demo’s for CME. Cool
😂😂
Nice amps, but another level up in tone would be Two Rock and Top Hat. Both of those brands will end the search for tone.
i have a top hat club royal that i love,i also have a swart str that is awsome...
Nope, sold 2 Two Rocks and I‘m happy now with my Bartel Starwood! Craftmanship of the Bartel is one step above Two Rock actually.
@@MartinBabst I have owned several Mark Bartel built amps. Great amps for sure if you like that sound. Step above Two Rock and Top Hat...probably not. In the same league, yes. But, glad you found what you love.
Matchless for me. sounding thick and badass!
That strat is so damn gorgeous!
Love to see some Victorias

It’s nice to somewhat see and hear amps you won’t in a place like those nationwide guitar garages (GC) 😂

Any time someone says tube amps are dying or dead, I'm gonna show them your face in this entire video. This face doesn't happen with a helix.
Nothing beats that feeling! 🤘🤘

funny how many of them are either tweed or valco related
nice presentation. strange how these amps are so expensive, there are a demo of the $500 20 watt Marshall Origin on Segeborne's channel that sounds 10x as expensive
Just goes to show price isn't everything!! 🤘🤘
Y’all gotta support your local boy and throw a Carstens amp in the mix!
We would have for sure but didn’t have any in stock 😡
Pretty bummed you didn't read the manual or do any research on the Bartel before doing the demo (it seems). The preamp circuit you cannot just leave at noon unless you want a stock tweed only experience. Here's a copy and paste from the manual, that literally transforms this amp into magical things.
1) 60’s Clean Tone 1 (more “mid-scooped”): Vol 3; Treble 10; Bass 10; Master 10
2) 60’s Clean Tone 2 (less “mid-scooped”): Vol 3; Treble 6.5; Bass 6.5; Master 10
3) Tweed Clean: Vol 3; Treble 5.5; Bass 5; Master 10
4) Tweed Overdrive: Vol 7; Treble 5; Bass 5; Master [as desired]
5) Plexi Overdrive: Volume 4; Treble 5; Bass 0; Master [as desired]
6) Saturated Plexi: Vol 7; Treble 0; Bass 0; Master [as desired]
7) Vox Bright Clean Vol 1; Treble 9; Bass 4; Master 10
What brand of speakers were each amp issued with?
The Benson has a custom ceramic speaker, the Carr has an Eminence Patriot series speaker, the Swart has a Mojotone BV-30H, the Bartel has a Fane Alnico A60 Speaker and the Matchless has two Celestion Creamback G12H75. 🤘🤘
And the winner is: Headstrong lil king 😂
What this video needs is more random palming on the floating trem...
All that pulling on the neck and taking it out of tune drives me crazy. Just play it straight.
i have one Pure Tone Amps, model the cosmonaut, customized, personalized, in Pink DeSoto made by Serpetsidakis Michalis in Crete Greece, with celestion neocreamback with real gold leaf at a balsa wood cabinet without front panel. i could sell it for 3k. european. i live in spain.
🤘🤘
When it's at half a watt is that bedroom volumes?
Definitely! 🤘🤘
Matchless did sound very good! Heavy 😢
🤘🤘
This guy typifies the younger player that is in love with THE IDEA of hardwired, boutique and so on but clearly does not know much at all. Nothing I can learn from him.
Shut your pie hole, grampa.🔱☠️
Man that strat…
Nice
🤘🤘
You should be telling us what kind of tubes are in each.
Red Plate
rather hear them just recorded, rather than microphoned up, running through software and all that cus every amp just sounded the same after processing... only had his reaction to go off...
honestly, the best for my ears to approximate the real tones is to mic them few feet away and capture it as we're in the room instead of hearing the scratchiness from speaker paper vibrating, it's just unrealistic since we would never play with our head sticking to the grill listening to microscopic harmonics anyway. Now softwares are just another maze of rabbit holes to debate. Just my humble opinion and preference.
Swart.
love the Swart stuff! 🤘🤘
Whichever one impresses the most lawyers and dentists.
you have to pay an extra 2k just use the word Boutique.... an extra 2k for capitalizing the B
😂😂
I haven't paid more than $3600 for a Z-80 yet, and it doesn't really do the collapsy puny tones quite like these little Boutique rascals, but its pretty good at loud.
Strat is out of tune, or your bending it out, hope not to offend but couldn’t listen 😬
Like listening to vinyl when the center hole is slightly off.
Is it me or is that strat out of tune?
Finally! I thought I was crazy. I think he’s in tune, but his right hand is working the trem.
One day I hope to see a ceriatone amp on here. If you guys ever need one to demo, I can bring one by. 🤘😎🤘
🤘🤘
Well none of those beat my 65 Princeton 12” speaker. All farty sounds. No good clean sounds here.
The best you could find was this stoned teenager to attempt to try an educate us on some of your finest amps?
