Love listening to these maker videos. & huge congrats to Anderson’s for investing in & promoting UK makers.
Now just got to the end of the vid, & the Ainsley Lister sig amp & LP sound phenomenal - aural joy!
Hear, hear! In fact, off the back of Danish Pete's video of picking up his Rift amp, I submitted a question on the Rift website about some component choices they described there. Got back a very thoughtful, sensible, informative reply from Chris Fantana. Respect!
One of the best LP sounds through an amp I've heard in decades
For me Lee and Pete do a better job than That Pedal Show who have personal opinions for semi pro guitarists. Here you get a professional player and a shop who wont stock stuff unless it is good and tracks buyers wishes
Loved this big time. Inspirational stuff, heard about Rift from a friend a little while ago who uses a Tweed model as one of his test amps whilst building awesome pickups and was very impressed. Love the fact the brand is growing and offering some awesome 'new' designs now as well as classics - thanks for stocking them
RCA Radiotron manual. Every tube amp circuit you need is in there.
Leaving a comment so i can find it when i come home :)
Wonderful interview, please keep doing them like this!
Beautiful guitars, beautiful playing!
Beautiful sounding. The reverb built-in is also exceptional.
Brilliant! i could listen to knowledgeable people talk about old amps all day. Great video, looks like a great product.
It has taken me 3 attempts to get through this video. Not because it's boring, but because I have no ability to stay awake for much more than 15 mins once in a dark room and I look at these before bed. Great video. Informative and entertaining. Chris seems a very likeable chap and his product sounds incredible. Great work all round.
That intro was just gorgeous...
Cool amps, cool dude, cool video.
Cheers, guys
I was fortunate enough to play one of Aynsley's rift amps (before the sig was out) at a guitar weekend and what really blew me away was how sweet it sounded whatever guitar was plugged in. Teles, Strats, LPs, PRS, anything they all sounder killer. Wonderful amps that bring the best out of your instrument.
Another great video! Looking forward tying out a Rift Amp! I reckon Lee and Chris will be as passionate when they are 80! Lee is such a top bloke and Chris comes across a diamond geezer!
50:48 Yesss, Thank you very much for coming in, good luck,(does not hand back the guitar) really appreciate a good gift when i get one...make sure to take some T shirts and mugs on the way out...bye bye ciao...
They just sound marvelous . just wish I could afford one
Man, I listen to all your videos with a Bose speaker and the sound of these amps are so great. Real gear is so out of my range just wish I could play through something that cool.
Loved the show
What a lovely, down to earth guy Chris is. A great player as well.
I love the Rift amps and hope to have one like Aynsley Lister plays when I'm a bit better off. That amp is so perfect for a blues player. No need for pedals.
Nice video, great conceptual designs, informative and the Rift guitar is spankin!!
Great video, great amps! The Aynsley amp sounded stellar at the guitar show :-)
Lovin your leads lately Captain
I would like to see the captain meets lee anderton
just started watching this (less than a minute) and I have to say to "Captain Lee" that your playing has really picked up! Your recent lessons and your effort at actually learning them has REALLY been paying off. Great playing my friend.
I happily watched this whole thing and was pleased to learn how power scaling works! More nerdy stuff, please!
On the subject of good tone at low volume, my dad has an 80s Mesa SOB with an attenuator, and MY GOODNESS. I've heard people say disparaging things about the attenuated tone of that amp, but I disagree. That thing sounds phenomenal
What a nice guy ... so unpretentious about what he does.
Good stuff!
The most down to earth guest ever. Might have to splash out on one of his amps.
Must be skilled if you have fanta in your name
@Captain: when you record your "quicky" videos on facebook, is that just the smartphone mic picking up room sound or does the PR6 have a line-out/headphone jack?
Lee's solo in the intro may be one of my favorites from him! Great tone and feel!
Only 1:10 in and had to comment.. Lee your playing is coming on massively.. Great note choices man
GEEZ ID CHARGE $45 + PARTS! Started in 92 inn Atlanta Ga, had Navy Electronics training, ( retired n 95) still waiting for my big day, congrats man!
Would be interesting to find out what electronics qualification Chris undertook in order to help him on the way. I am interested in amp kits myself. Great story of a guy starting at the bottom of the ladder to become the maker of one of the greatest sounding amps available.
Can’t believe you didn’t sign off with searing riffy version of twinkle twinkle little star!
These sound great. Andertons should also check out Andy Smith and Honeyboy amps. Hand built in Scotland and the most amazing custom coverings and great sounding amps.
Just a thought: maybe someday you could do a The Captain Meets... with Ben Crowe. I know Anderton's doesn't carry Crimson guitars, but it would cool to have Lee sit down with a boutique guitar builder.
Chris what about an all NPN transistor power amp with with a long tailed pair based on BC182L driving 10x IRF250 MOSFETs in the output stage operating in the 200w power range driving a 12" speaker just a suggestion for an addition to your range.
Love u Anderson’s u make the best vids
How refreshing to hear an amp builder say use modelling amps for low volume. I would also add modelling or plugins for recording is also easier for guitar. I mic up cabinets, use 12mtk recording 12 tracks, but quite frankly using S-gear or UA plugins is just as good! Many venues now do not allow big amps or volume so its harder to go beyond 90db
Great to see that England still has some true craftsmen continuing many 100’s of years tradition.
I would like to ask Chris what kind of course he had to do in electonics to be able to get where he is. Or did he self study?
That Ainsley signature sounds amazing! Put one more switchable gain stage in there and it would be the perfect amp for any player from country to hard rock.
The FX loop offers up to 6db boost and is footswitchable
was listening while writing an essay and literally got jumpscared by the lightning strike :DD Don't know why though...
what is the guitar Chris is playing, can`t find it on Andertons site?
1066wastrel someone said it was built for him by hood on brb. Made by Anthony Ryder for Chris.
@@robertwellington2616 yep that absolutely right. Anthony Ryder guitars on facebook
Nice G&L Tele...
A.... Capt... This is great I like the amp and the sound of it . Troy Frost troyster 😎Cool Riffs
What make is the Les Paul copy? Who is the builder? Sounds fantastic...
Made by a chap called Anthony Ryder :)
Thanks!
nice intro Lee, great tone
Please Please Please, Who made that cracking LP copy?
Anthony Ryder
Top bloke and beautiful amps. If money allowed I'd be having a Plexi style in British Racing Green tolex.
Samuel Xavier just get a black star Jared James Nichols sig... it’s basically exactly that😂 it’s a Marshall style amp in British racing green
@@zerohourdrift Now there's a plan. Just need the money now. :D
Samuel Xavier I really want one myself... they sound great and they look sick as
Lee, is that your guitar? If not, it should be. I think you've played it before. Always great sound.
Joe Nichols it’s Pete’s lmao... good luck getting it from him... he hoards his guitars and never sells them😂
The Captain and the Pwerple Dane meets Marcus King. He’s coming to the UK in June. Make it happen.
So is that guitar’s “rift-sawn “ burst where he got the company name from?
Daniel Hoskins lmao that’s built by a completely different guy 😂
Right. I heard that, but he talked about how the idea of a rift-sawn top fitted with how he saw what he was doing with the company, and named it the rift burst.
So I was asking if he named the company after the guitar, or if it was just a coincidence. Otherwise, why name the amp company rift?
Maybe lyao...
The company is named after the guitar on p64 of 'Beauty of the Burst'. The LP I had made came after that, as a sort of tribute
RiftAmps cool, thanks for clearing that up for me!
PANDA WATCH! Oh no wait this is Chris
When is Ainsley Lister on?
would think Aynsley's will be next
He might not charge much for a repair....but the British handmade Amps are very expensive....very high quality....could we get the prices down.....even handmade hardwired Marshalls are the price of a second hand car.....Lee would you please try and get Yngwie Malmsteen on please....just Yngwie and a massive back line of Marshalls....more is more....
So The Captain gets a copy of "I Spy" Electronics for christmas and turns into Michael Faraday on speed. Great very informative video though, keep up the good work
I heard they found a guy living in New Jersey who's not making his own line of boutique amplifiers. But I don't believe it.
Woke up.. New Anderton vid... First like and comment.. Boom. Now where's my coffee??!!
This is really cool, kinda like BadApple amps here in Canada.
Ajay Kumar Goel never heard of them. Now I have to look them up.
@@joerobinson6199 Yeah, man I tried their JTM45 clone at guitarworks premium here in Calgary. It's super good. Reed Shimo demonstrates them a bunch on his channel if you wanna check out their Plexi clone. Also there's video made in Britain for some reason demonstrating the while range. The fender clones aren't too expensive. I'm not sure about the British copies, but I'm sure since they're handwired and done by a smaller company it'll be more expensive than Marshalls reissues. But yeah, hope it goes well man!
Ajay Kumar Goel thx for the info. Although, I went thru a terrible buying spree. No more buying. I now have what I need been playing a long time since I was a little kid. Worked my way up from cheap gear to as I got better I felt I wanted better. Worked, saved, traded. I finally got the best amp I ever played. It’s a keeper the Friedman smallbox limited. So I would love to check it out but I can’t afford any more gear. Selling half my least favorite pedals off one by one.
@@joerobinson6199 Yeah man, that is a great amp too! Hella expensive but worth it. I have a JCM 2000 DSL50 that I love. Now I need a Les Paul haha
Can you build me a 200 watt plexi in a black crocodile skin case but it needs to go to 11 ?
Can you imagine the amount of luck involved in this... "I make guitar amplifiers and it's time for me to try to get into a music retail store" *knock knock knock* "hello there, I'm Captain Lee from Anderson's Music randomly dropping into your she'd to check out your amplifiers".
I take back whatever I said about the price of these amps.If they ate built just by one guy, the price is still low.
I agree. However, just because someone custom builds something and spends a lot of time on it doesn't automatically mean it is "worth" the price.
@@sebah1991 Im not telling, if it is worth or not. But when it is hand built by 1 person, the price is climbing up, because, he have to cover also for his time. And it take a lot of time to hand built something like this ... If it is worth, you have to try one by yourself and judge, if it is worth for you.
Cool guy and great sounding amps. They aren't cheap, but then neither is having one shipped to me. Lol
2012 he built his first kit, 2013 he gives up his job and start his 'amp company'... still building Fender clones. He learned everything off the internet but says "everything is in the old military handbooks".
Who isn't copying Princeton Reverbs with 12"?
"I have trouble getting the transformers wound" --> yeah, because all boutique builders are ordering it too.
Pity no heads as shipping with speakers internationally is just too much!
Bloozz dudez be getting that GAS and an itchy trigger finger
Fantanastic!
Chris Fantana? More like Chris Fantasticana!
Chris fantana must be the 'amperman'. Boom boom.
Chris really needs to bring out an amp called Sex Panther.
Please do Captain meets Yvette Young
Listen guys, you are getting greedy with the ads. Yes this is more than just a Music Store advertising arm, but that's also part of what it is. The store makes a lot of money from the success of these videos. Adding five (5) ads from external companies so you can make more money too is just too many. One or two, ok, but don't take piss.
Oi Anderton, nice interview but stop waggling the jewellery around, yeah-it’s doing my tinnitus a bad turn
37:15 Why would you say something so controversial yet so brave?
for some reason I want an orange soda.
He makes killer a strawberry drink
Anthony Fantanos distant cousin
Best valves in the game
I need a really versatile amp idk what to get im not new to guitar but there's so much choice also i can only spend like £600
snoozel Asmr MARSHALL DSL RANGE
Depends on what you're into. The Roland JC-22 or the bigger JC-40 have beautiful clean tones or for a more bluesy rock sound you could go to a Blackstar HT5R Mkii. You also can't go wrong with a Fender Bluesbreaker 15 combo. Basically 600 quid will get you a lot of amplifier.
Checked out Egnater tweaker?
If I had that budget, it would be the Oranger Rocker 15 in black (can find it easily on the Anderton's site, they have two in stock at the moment) - 15W down to 0.5W. Lots of info out there about this one. (And for a bit more? The PRS Tremonti "lunchbox" head and cab. Delicious.)
Justin D yep I have the tweaker 15 head. Great amp. Lots of options. And very inexpensive.
It's all very incestuous in the online music world now isn't it? Everyone scratching everyone else's back really hard.
Please get joe satriani on the captain meets
