A quick vid of the CM PlexiTone through my Marshall 1987x.



And yes... it was fucking loud!!!
 
Sounds good man, nice playing as usual. Just curious if you have the big box or small box plexitone? Also, have you ever tried it through your 5150 (not like the 5150 needs it), but I was just curious if the plexitone still sounded as Marshally through a different amp.

it's the 2012 Single Channel version of the PlexiTone. Its been my experience that the 5153 doesn't take pedals very well. So I have yet to try it.
 
I had the older version with the Boost. Great pedal but had an AC cord :gethim:
 
Sounds good! How would you compare it to the tone of the 1987x grinding up? Could you do a vid comparison? Also, what is that riff at 3:09?? I hear that everywhere. In fact, I hear it so much i play that lick and i don't know what song i am playing! lol
 
At 3:09 I'm playing ZZ Top's Just Got Paid. Followed by Soren Andersen's Catch Me If You Can.
 
Sounds great. As good as any of the modded Marshall's that people go on about on RT. :yes:
 
Sounds good but tough to get a good feel with the clipping...that bitch musta been loud!! lol

Next time put the phone closer to the front of the cab, sounded a little muffled due to the angle. I'm
looking forward to hearing that set up live. :rock:
 
I had great results with the old Plexitone into the 5153 clean green. I was able to recreate the blue channel sound 99% with more gain on tap..
 
It's definitely a cool pedal. I would be interested to try the older version to see if there was any more gain available with the boost. I think the next pedal I want to check out is the Bogner Red though.
