the exploding mugs never get old
They got prehistoric a good couple of years ago, now they're just tedious.
I love them lol
No even though they should do they just don't. It's just so stupid that it's funny.
If anyone was ever doubting the honesty of these videos, this one should change your mind. Hugely ballsy to post this especially with the Victory comments/score. Respect to the Andertons guys!
Shocked he hated the Kraken. Everything I've heard from it in other videos it sounds great. Speaker placement perhaps...
I was literally going to post your exact comment, what he said about the Victory amp knowing Anderton's close relationship to them and still posted this video, that really says something about the integrity of Anderton's and these videos.
it honestly could be just tone adjustments to change whether he liked them or not. i definitely agree
Dave Crider His relationship is more than a little close. Anderton is a primary owner, and I do believe Chappers also is a partner.
The address for Victory Amps given on the back of the amps is in Woking - the same address to which Andertons is registered at Companies House...
There goes Robs endorsement with Victory
Dannnnng he destroyed it with that rating!
@@jakecal6802 And now separated from Victory, the circle is complete lol
@Ryan Grandon *Rob's
@Jake Cal *Daaaaang - I doubt you'd say it the way you spelled it...
@@dildojizzbaggins6969 good job, ya jabroni.
@@dildojizzbaggins6969 what?
You should’ve thrown in the miku, just to see robs reaction when he plays the first chord 😂
That thing is ridiculous lol

29:33 The moment every owner who owns a Katana has a grin so syrupy you could pour it over a waffle.
Yes, except at the end the Captain told Rob he only gave it a 5.9, not an 8.5!!! The 5.9 was for the Bogner. Quibbles aside, great comparisons. I have a Katana 100, and for my HR Deluxe, I use a BE-OD, I was very excited to see 2 pieces of gear I own featured, and both wind up in the top 4, especially with some of the competition! (Sorry for rezzing this necro thread, lol)
@@jdragsdale I agree, that BEOD is hard to beat.
Maxx61 as a proud owner of a katana 50.. "this does bring a smile to my face"
@@jdragsdale necrothread... love it
The mk2 rules
You should install a couple of ceiling speakers so when Rabea speaks from the booth, he can be like the voice of god
Yeah he almost sounded a bit like Darth Vader, it would be good if they could enhance it
OOOLLYMPICCCC... WHIIIIITEEEE....
It's Arctic fookin' White!
PLEASE
With lots of reverb!!!!!
Should have just used 10 high-end amps, asked Rob to pick out which ones are pedals, grab some popcorn and enjoy!
Goes to show...tweaking settings to your own likings goes a long, long way to make you go "I love it" instead of "it's rubbish"
Moregain Friedman
Run a Morgan amp and a Friedman amp in dual amp setup. "Morgan Friedman"
Except Rob favors Moregain's little brother, Lessgain Friedman.
That Strymon Riverside though. It's just so good.
I think this series successfully proves that gear snobbery (looking down on anything that's not a valve amp from the 60s)is absolute crap.
SS sucks for band rehearsals. Tube amps just sound better the louder they get. SS amps sound worse. Not snobbery, just my experience
@@lo3572 you probably haven't played with good ss amps man
@@lo3572 there absolutely are SS amps that can go really loud and do it brilliantly, given they run into a decent cab (most of the amps we tend to think about when thinking SS lack at that certain area). Buuuut I'd say: for certain kind of sounds, say: 60s mid-gain sounds, valve still has a different response and will do a better job than any (non-digital-modelling) SS.
but it has its reasons why nearly every really important high gain sound on any heavy record was based at least partially on pedals. The differences in "harmonic structure" as rob puts it get less and less pronounced the more gainstages you stag together.
He obviously was listening for a certain kind of sound which he identified as "valve" (maybe a bit more into overdrive territory than compressed higain) which led him to misidentifying every hi gain amp in the video.
darillio I recently tried a lauded Marshall Valvestate (the one Chuck Schuldiner used) into a H&K 4x12 with V30’s & it was horrible. Sounded just like a remember SS amps to; squishy bottom end & piercing highs with no body at all. The louder it got, the worse it sounded. Compared to even a bad tube amp there was no comparison
@@lo3572 seems to me like you're one of those people that "listen" with their eyes. Guarantee you if you were blindfolded, I bet you wouldn't be able to tell the difference.
I've seen so many of these videos...that exploding/shattering drink thing shouldn't still be funny...but it is. Every time.
It never ceases to amaze me how every time I hear the Kraken, it just pleases my ears more than any other amp in the world.
You’re smoking kraken if you think victory amps sound good
I am very disappointed there were no Boss Metal Zones
@Joe Figueroa at 0.5 gain lolo
@Joe Figueroa I think the guitarist Ola Englund in one of his videos reviewing the pedal says that. Not a bad pedal but you have to proper set it.
It’s Tuesday at 2 AM, I had a terrible day at work, I can’t sleep... But oh man, there’s something about Anderton's that just makes me forget about everything and just paints a smile on my face! Thanks for everything Mr. Lee!
I almost blew beer out my nose when Lee said high gain turkey!
Rob's favourite head after the Kemper is a Strymon pedal :P
After watching maybe all the blindfold challenges I have realized that you need a small blindfold test area instore!
Listening with our eyes, we're all a bit gear snobbish.
This was great, thanks guys
These are gold. Best series in a while.
Those were some of the greatest mating calls I've ever heard.
He called the EVH 5150 III a "semi- affordable multi-effects gain" pedal...ouch...
I think Rob's ears were broken in this clip lol
@@jmcsquared18 yeah if someone makes a pedal that sounds like that sign me up, sounded so valve to me, the 'undefined low end' sounded like tube bloom and compression to me, no digital or transistor piece of gear has ever sounded like that to me. Not necessarily favourable qualities but thats what amps do! The Riverside sounded great but had a tightness that doesn't sound like any of the amps here.
the editing of these videos is so good. Hilarious and satisfying to watch, while feeling authentic.
I love these blindfold challenges and all the editing gags you guys slip in. Rock on!

37:44 clean platform amp - Morgan SW50R
You should really speak to Henning about the switching system that he uses in his studio to go between amps, and use that for shootouts like this, so you don't have to re-cable everything, you just press a button and it switches what you are attached to.
Robert Baker you’d think they sold some switching pedals at Anderson’s. :/
Gigrig is best!!!
Then what would be the excuse for the singing? :)
From the bottom of my heart, i love you guys man...been watching since i was 12 years old and well i cant put into words what this channel means to me
Fabulous video, these get better and better. Always look forward to the challenges and this one is one of the best yet.
You guys are such a treasured part of my childhood

Lee: For those of you that have a memory of a mosquito, we are on number 5.
Also Lee: *Looks at the board to make sure he knows what number they are on*
The part where Rob plays with the guitar stand and says "Ello!" Had me in stitches! Love the video, great representation of how good digital amplifiers can sound!
Chappers, your usually uncanny recognition of gear was a little off but I could never do as well as you so hats off because it's always interesting, educational, and entertaining to hear you and the Captain and all the other guys try out and talk about gear. Thanks and keep doing these great videos!
Wow, his three lowest scores that he gave were towards badass valve amplifiers. That 5150 III and Marshall Jubilee were especially amazing. This is definitely Rob's weakness.
Captain hints to his dear friend “unleash your sound” with the victory Kraken. I don’t blame him. Doesn’t choppers have a relationship with Victory? Brave guys. I appreciate the honesty.
they both hold the shares of that company
I mean, I know this is a 3 year old comment, but he clearly said unleash your tuner pedal
Great show. Keep doing this type of format for things. It helps bring to light what types of differences are noticeable and what isn't which is really interesting.
Content like this is what makes this channel the best. Love it
I see an Andertons blindfold test video and I instantly click and watch even though I'm at work :)
SAME HERE :D
Same ^^
Yep
Well specially when at work :)
That seems to me to be the best time to watch videos!
Would be cool if Rob made a video on what he listens for in those blindfold tests. Or instead of a dedicated video, a quick explanation every video would be great. Just like he did in the actives vs passives challenge where he explained to Lee how he listened to the feedback to figure it out. Would work for guitars too, explaining for example the differences in neck shapes from company to company. Not that most of us had any practical use for it, I just think it's interesting to hear how the different stuff works and how that effects things.
Sweet! Been waiting for the next blindfold(ish) challenge from you two. They're always fun. Thanks guys!
Another great blindfold challenge. Thanks for all the hard work to make these happen!
If it wasn't for this video, I would be still movin the lawn
could you help me move my lawn? its very heavy and i can't do it on my own
God dang it Bobby I thought I told you not to watch those loud hard rock movies on the internet.
Chappers and the Cpt are quite fun, but I really think I keep coming back for the mug ception.
I love the post production edits in the videos. Please keep doing them. They are hilarious.
Glad to see these are back! (Cap and Chap)
This channel took a massive hit but I’m sure you guys exquisitely hilarious and informative videos for us fellow musicians will bring it back to where it belongs! Cheers from Houston, Texas🖖🏽🇺🇸
This just shows you perfectly what all the talking of the tube fanboys is worth.
Looking like the real winner here's gonna be the Morgan!
I have to agree, those pedals sounded better then Idve heard them in most videos, that amp and speaker combo loves high gain pedals. Also Kemper 5150 was pretty good.
Morgans are djent machines, Tosin Abasi uses one
And the Katana!
I have an SWR50 - killer amp with pedals and gorgeous clean tones by itself
Love the show...from Moncton...New Brunswick Canada.....you are one of the best entertaining shows on the net....thanks
Brave vid Guys. Well done and as always great fun to watch
This PRS out of tune most of the time is driving my attention.
Rafael Yamaga shut up
I'm not a PRS fan at all, but Chappers manages to make every guitar sound out of tune.
Jimmy Running Dog I agree it’s really annoying I swear he can’t play in tune
My prs has certain strings that cant hold tune for longer than 5 mins as well. Its a floating bridge thing more than prs but i thought id add to the thread.
i read quite a lot of these comments hating on Chapman for "not being able to hear his guitar is out of tune" and some such and I listened closely time and time again and either, even after 15 years of playing now, I have yet to achieve the sanctimonious epiphany that you all seem to have had considering my pitch listening abilities, or you guys are full of shit and just hate on chords that you don't like because your dad-rock ain't got none of this bologna.
The Marshall 2525H uses diodes to clip the lead and crunch modes, so Rob's comments about harmonics were spot on.
LOL, whether authentic or set up, these are still great fun to watch because the Anderton’s staff are a great cast of characters....and very talented ones for sure!😎🤙🏻
One of your best and funniest reviews. Top marks guys
dang, never seen Rob get em so far off the mark like this before. I'm sure the Captain is totally feeling a wee bit of redemption from some past episodes XD
Seems like every time the Boss Katanas have been used they have over performed based on thier price point.
Finally! :D thanks guys I'm a huge pedal believer and have been waiting on this video for so long
Love these series . . . Thanks for sharing 😃
Was "Head or Ped" shot down as a name for this one?
Makes much more sense tho
I'm guessing they decided to beat UA-cam to the punch on that decision.
I look forward to these very funny videos from you guys.
It just goes to show that it's not about whether it's valve or solid state etc. It's about how it sounds to you at that moment in time... Hell, I use a Boss GT10 through the clean channel of a Katana 100 on stage and in sessions - and do you think the punters/clients notice or even care..? ...The answer is, no (of course they don't...) If it sounds good, doesn't weigh a ton and fits in the boot (trunk) of my car, then it's a win for me..! :-)
Yep I think the Katana, considering what it is, more than held it's own here...
(Fnaar, Fnaar!)
you should try the gt-100 in line then or even now the newest gt-1000.
Already saving my pennies for the GT1000 :-)
hey I am using gt10 too :)
I plug it into my only amo fender mustang, they are great and I create some very nice tones from them :)
It's always a joy to watch Chappers and the Captain!
absolutely love these videos!
You guys should do an Eric Clapton amp shootout!! Go from a bluesbreaker to tweed champs to musicman to Marshall to slo100 to vibrokings to tweed twins. It would be really cool and I bet lee would love it!!
Awesome video, but I'm still waiting for the Epiphone relic challenge
Hello from Los Angeles! Love these blindfold tests!
These blind challenges are my favourite. Good stuff.
Btw mod your epiphone challenge on a budget?
Like £1000 for guitar & mods kinda deal?
Shane Callan that's a lot of money xD
LucianSarbu MD2 thought ypu meant 1000£ for just mods 👍didnt read it right xP
Yep to this Please =0
Well not exactly 500 guitar 500 mods, they could potentially buy a cheaper guitar and have more money for mods or more expensive guitar and less mods etc
Where can I find one of these "High Gain Turkeys"?
in the "Tone Woods"
In Turkey of course !
behind geddy lee.
Another awesome video guys 👏👏👏👌
This was a fun watch. Thanks guys!
That strymon sounded the best to my little ears
Andrew Crawley
Agreed Andrew, that Strymon did sound damn good!
Agreed, it's a favorite on my board for backline gigs.
Andrew Crawley
Had great mids in this vid.
Strymon is now doing distortion right too! Amazing company.
The new Emery album is all an AC30 boosted with a Riverside
Lee's "Kanye scatting" was more entertaining than the original thing.
God, I love these videos you guys do.
These videos are tops -- so good.
I can't believe chappers didn't like the EVH 5150....I thought it sounded awesome
I wonder how loud it was in the room, valve amps really don't like being played quietly, it kills the tone. A Kemper can do the tone of a loud valve amp at any volume.
Based on the sounds they were getting it was quite obviously cranked to me.
Wow that was just awesome - fantastic vid
This video just pushed me over the edge to buy the Strymon Riverside. Thanks!
I really don't like that Riverside. It sounds too good. I just can't be snobby about it.
Cue Zephyr
I must agree Cue, that Strymon did sound damn good!
Think you should do Kemper vs Helix.
Been waiting years for this!
I have no idea how I've missed this video- for four years! But what a great vid. Chapman has subsequently left Victory! Jokes aside what a great video and just goes to show how ridiculous 'tube snobbery' is !
Lee!! Katana was 8.5!! Chicken scratcher!! lol
also what ive learned from all of these videos is that i should own a kemper.
Excellent video!
Very entertaining as always! Rob is a fantastic guitar player! I would enjoy some of these blind shootouts with clean sounds and not the high gain sounds we’re used to hearing
At 7:20 he says he's plugging in an amp
I noticed that too...
I think my favorite was the Victory Kraken
Like I always say, if you didn't hear it blind, you didn't really hear it. Loved the honesty.
Gear aside, is always fun to watch you guys. Thanks

Entertaining as always, gents. I think my favorite was the EVH 5150 head. That sounded awesome to me, but obviously that is to my taste.
Ahhhh......That classic Chapman slightly out of tune drop D sound. Tuning aside, great video guys.
What was Pete showing Joss?
Oh poor chappers. We found something he can’t Id from across the room. This was balsy to post. Thank you guys :)
Love the "noise" inbetween each selection lol ....:-) . That Riverside sounds great !
Finally Rob proves his ears are not perfect
As a teacher (mathematics and computer science) I definetely need this Lee's t-shirt :) The link to "Buy a T Shirt" doesn't work btw.
Georg Mierau Go to the Andertons website. When you get there type T Shirt into the search box at the top of the page. Hit enter. Et voilà.
@andertons I just love these Blindfold challenges.
Yet another GREAT pedal from Strymon! 😮
