Marshall Studio Vintage 20 (SV20H) vs Marshall Plexi 1987x (Is The Studio Vintage The REAL DEAL?)

Marshall Studio Vintage 20 (SV20H) vs Marshall Plexi 1987x (Is The Studio Vintage The REAL DEAL?)

I've played Plexis for 15 years now, give or take, and I really love them. Recently Marshall announced a new amp, called the Marshall Studio Vintage, which is a 20 watt version of the Plexi (they also released the Studio Classic, which is a smaller version of the JCM 800). Now everyone can have that Plexi tone, but in a smaller package, because it isn't as crazy loud as the older Plexis. Well, that's what they say at least.

So, does the Studio Vintage sound like a Plexi? Here I compare it to the Marshall 1987x, which is a 50 watt Plexi. See, and hear how they compare. Enjoy!

The gear I most often use.
A Stratocaster of some kind, either an Yngwie Malmsteen Strat, or a custom Strat with a scalloped fretboard. For 7 string stuff I mostly use an Ibanez Universe.
A Marshall 1987x into a Marshall cab.
A Fender Yngwie Malmsteen overdrive, plus a Boss NS-2 noise gate, or a Strymon Sunset.
A Morley Bad Horsie 2 wah, and a delay.
An AKG C-414 mic for the guitar.
For acoustic stuff I use a Taylor 710 short scale thingy.
