WOW!! OK, here's the takeaways for me. I found myself preferring the MT-15 through the cleans and the fist segment of gain. THEN you set about making the PRS sound like the LBXS, due to YOUR preference of the other amp. However, you surprised me with how good that LBXS was as times in the subsequent demos. It's really more competitive than I expected TBH. In the mix, I found myself liking the fuller, less gritty (?) sound of the MT-15. Seemed to have some deeper, richer frequencies. Looks like you're getting into those more treble-y sounds after all bro! So I put the PRS as my winner, but I'd still own either one. GREAT vid!
4:59 I tried out both and I just loved the MT-15 . I actually love them both. The EVH was brighter, the MT-15 chugs. The MT-15 reminded me of an Orange but better. That would be a better face off. Both are great, the Mt-15 exceeded expectations. It depends what you want.
I’ve had a few of these little lunchbox heads, they sound great and all, the ones with smaller power tubes just lack that full bottom end sound you get from 6l6’s/5881 tube amps. Of all the ones I’ve had I’ve hung onto my MT15 and orange Brent hinds terror (which I do need to boost to get it into the MT15 territory)
Tried both of these yesterday. Both good amps but, I had to go with the EVH LXB-S because the distortion tone is much closer to the tone I’ve been looking for most of my life.
Fantastic demo! Fantastic playing. They both sound incredible! I'm a little partial to the evh I just hear something and maybe it's psychological LOL plus I've owned a pv5150 and an a evh combo plus Wolfgang and music man guitars so I'm a little partial to evh! But that PRS is the only other amp that sounds incredible to me. I'm going to go with the evh. Keep up the great work bro appreciate you
Always killing it man! I still have my MT15 - now I need a Mudkiller..... Both of these amps punch way above their weight class for sure! Keep doing the good stuff!🤘😁🤘
looks like all the dials are set at 1:00 on the MT15 are the dials at noon on the stealth??? the Mt15 sounds fuller on cleans. and Im wondering maybe thats why with the dials at 1:00
Great video , very relevant. I personally find the MT-15 to be a fatter, fuller beefier tone than the lbx Stealth. Also darker of course. Both are great but the MT-15 is/was my choice. That being said the 50 watt Stealth is my current favorite full size-ish head until my KSR Ares arrives. 🤘🏻😎🤘🏻
@@Mesatallic Honestly, I have no idea LOL. It's just something I made up and I do not know anything about theory at all. I wish I could be of more help to you, sorry
Both sound good, but to my ear the MT-15 sounds bigger and more full. The cleans aren’t even close. MT-15 is far superior sounding. For the money the MT is the better amp IMO. The only reason I sold mine is I landed an Engl Fireball 25 that is a notch above the MT for me personally.
@@kenjicarlos8402agreed. I’ve had my mt15 since early 2020 when they first came out. I love it, it’s powerful, full and aggressive. However I want to replace it. Partially due to the FX loop but it also just kinda feels a bit too perfect. Too refined high gain, too sculpted. It just needs more actual filth and grind.
EVH is brighter, more aggressive and more transparent, makes the guitar stand out in a mix. The MT15 is darker and fuller. Sounds better with the guitar by itself (the cleans were insane! so much body), better for a single guitar band or with a soft drummer/bass player...
MT15 all day long, especially with a band..Fuller fatter, bigger transformer and 6L6 tubes...At med to low vol, both Crush it, live and loud with a band, MT15 owns it. It competes with my other guitar player's 50w Marshall half stack....When I use the LBX, it;s great until we get to drummer volum, then it gets lost..The MT15 is amazing!
Wow! I'm so impresses of how identical both amps are, you can't go wrong with both amps
I added a bright cap to my MT15 gain pot (like the 5150 and JCM800) and it adds a lot of natural agression!
What bright cap did you use exactly and how do you install it?
I don’t know anything about amps and my playing doesn’t sound good through any of them, but I thoroughly enjoyed this video!

That was a great review, just bought the Stealth today, cant wait till it gets here

Definitely the best straight shoot out. No bullshit..very well done.. my first time on your channel and it definitely won't be my last great job
I compared both on different cabs and I really prefer the MT-15. It sounds bigger and better to my ears.
I like both of'em, they sound amazing to my ears.

I like the voicing better on the lbx-s but feel it needed a bit higher level on the bass or resonance to compete with the 6l6 tubes in the mt15.

Thank you!! I really appreciate the kind words. I'm glad you found good information in this video. Cheers!

How is the noise everyone is talking about this amp?

Love um both. Pedals make a difference for sure.
Agreed. Both are great. A good od pedal can fix almost anything
another great vid!
Awesome, with the cleans & chorus etc,
it reminded me of Porno For Pyros,
“Pets”.
Coool guitar player in that band!!!!
MT15 for sure
Is the stealth loud enough to jam with a band like the Prs
How is the noise floor on the LBX compared to the Mt15?
Kinda liked the MT15 . Both were really nice though
Awesome

Both are good amps, but big tubes rule over small tubes any day. I wouldn't trade my 5881 loaded MT15 for any EL84 lunchbox out there.
Not familiar with the Doken song, what’s it called @ 8:08? 🤔🤘
Unchain The Night
What song are you playing @ 8:41 ? 🤘😀🤘
Thanks for asking, it's just some mix that I wrote for demonstrating amplifiers and shooting them out
Thanks. What type of scale is the run @ 9:15 ?

Mt for leads and cleans, LBX S for cutting through the mix with riffage
Mt15 is a truly special amp love evh amps but the mt15 I will digress is a fkn savage animal with some hefty hefty balls
The answer is actually, the Fireball 25.
Hahahahhahaha.....
You are right. You really are right. 🙏
I gave a like from one michigander to another. hello from saint clair shores.
Thank you!! It's always good to hear from local people

Only thing keeping me from the mt between these two is the consistent noise loop issue…..

My guess is the MT15 is going to sound bigger. This should be interesting though. Evh is no slouch.
Loved the MT-15. It has more cojones. 💪😅
MT15 All Day!! Way bigger Fuller sound!
MT-15. Clean and dirty.

I don’t care both sound bad ass!!!!
Для EVH не нужна дополнительная педаль, она портит звук. EVH и так очень красивый и фактурный.
MT15 all the way
Evh was good but the MT15 wins for sure. Better tone on cleans and distortion.
Mt15 wins.....evh is good....but the mt15
To much talking not enough playing.
