History at its best ... thanks a lot for sharing these gems

[rayvandragon]

The boogie mark IV is my real love. 🤘😎🎸

[Squall]

Ngl I got giddy when that Mesa came roaring in

[DaNooch]

Every time I'm interested in a certain topic, you've made a video matching it exactly the day before. That's my queue to subscribe

Tube amp heaven there!!! That was amazing Johan! So many great tones! What an absolute joy… I’m speechless, that was so good. 😊

[otavioaguiar]

This vídeo brought me a large smile just early in the day, thanks!

[maxwellblakely]

Crate VC 50 was my first amp. Absolutely killer tone!

[klepetar]

Johan..you are the most useful source of amp sounds on youtube.. !!

[CosmicKnight]

I love it when you do these! My favs where the JCM800 and JMP-1, but I heard so many familiar sounds in all the others. I appreciate you making this video, thank Johan.

[alanst.]

Thanks for the last year's valve tone summary, Johan! I really did enjoy it, all incarnations of the Superlead and the 1974 were probably my favourites, but all of those amps are just awesome depending on one's tastes. Must have taken a lot of work to edit into such a comprehensive package. Kudos👍

[blakestone]

Might as well be called "15 legendary riffs... And oh some amps too." Killer playing as always.

[jahjah]

So many great tones! My personal faves were the two Super Lead clips, Friedman DS, JMP-1 and the ‘54 Bassman. I’m glad you had the Jensen’s included here with the Super Lead because in a comparison with the Greenbacks it really does shine. I’m surprised I liked it so much. You’re recent video with the Jensens sounded great but they really sounded great in this video. Also I have to say that Friedman DS sounded so close to the Super Lead with the Jensens. Impressive. I’ve had Dave mod many amps for me and the guy just has incredible ears. Johan, Dave tweaks the SV20 to do something a stock one doesn’t do. It might not seem worth it but the mod is only a couple hundred bucks or so and I really think you’d be impressed with the difference in it and a stock amp. You covered so many great tones here!

[marcelbelanger]

Inspiring. When I started this video, I wouldn't have guessed that one of my favorite (recorded) tones would come from the 1 watt amp!

[noahzark]

Nice comparison Johan! I’ve been buying odd cheap tube combos when I find them for a deal. Just picked up a Bogner Alchemist. I believe it’s a highly passed over amp but I really dig it! Has some tasty sounding overdrive.
Take care and keep on rockin!

[fakenews]

Best and most entertaining Amp show on the Planet.
Bravo mate.!!!

[strangelet]

No Soldano??? I just bought one and I NEED the legend to verify my purchase! 😅. Love the channel, Johan. 🤘🤘

[FleshOnGear]

I would love to hear you demo more Vox amps. There are so many versions from over the years, it’s hard to know what to look for in a Vox. Just thinking out loud. Love the demos, keep up the good work!

[mohamedtlass]

The AC10 and 54 Bassman were so good with that CS Tele!

[GunnarLoeb]

Jag var tvungen att kolla direkt! Tack!
