x10000!
And for the record, I wasn't (or at least I sincerely FEEL I wasn't) shitting on Kyle at all. But when a genuine question is being shrugged off, twisted and projected, am I not allowed to voice my opinion? That Kyle's channel went into a direction I didn't care for... That I'm not fond...
It's the same with failed movies, where the studio is force-feeding the crowd diversity and inclusion and when the movie itself is just subpar, they defend it with 'Y'all racist or can't stand a lesbian lead" or something if the ratings and reviews are low... When something's shitty, something's...
So...lemme get this straight... because YOU can't catch on to my analogy about integrity, *I* have autism?
And even more rich; you totally accept hyperboles from Youtubers solely for their clout ("everyone...YES...every-fucking-one is using the wrong pickups for metal"), "Hey man, it's just...
Dude, you keep hanging on to the title thing. No, that's just a small part of it. So, @thegame was completely right with his 'Entrenchmentism' comment towards you. Your referring to hypothetical buddies wearing poloshirts for conglomorates... That's not the fuckin' point. AT ALL.
It's about...
I actually tried that thing next to a Digitech Genesis 3 (which I bought back then) and the POD 2.0... Sounds like some guys I know that make decent sounding records, all with an early 90's Alesis SR16 drummachine.
1) If you weren't involved in the original debate, don't come here all high and mighty FULL of assumptions. Because I choose my wording carefully back then and I'm still doing it now.
2) I never called Kyle names FWIW, I never suggested he was a dumbass.
3) Not triggered at all, but I have a...
Not only that; directly after doing some contradictionary videos (first: 'y'all wrong for using high gain pickups' and literally the next video he does is 'I'm testing this IIC+ RI with 7 different guitars, 4 of which have very high output pickusp') and being called out on that on this forum, he...
Interestingly enough you hardly see pro's with Epiphones, save for some exotic (jazzy) models perhaps, yet LTD's are plenty and probably more ubiquitous than ESP's.
This!
I have 2 originals from '81 and a Heritage RI (which sounds fairly close), but for home noodling (living room volumes, not talking about a -50dB+ isolated basement), these are a dark-ish sounding speaker.
The vented (or non-vented, but serifed font label) T75 are better in that regard...
I'm definitely aware of that, and that's one of the reasons there's NO PAF Pro in any of my guitars nor in my spare pickup drawer.
But ya gotta try the Breed Neck in a mahogany/ebony guitar, the Norton, the 36th Anniv PAF neck, heck or the Super D in a Les Paul...
Based on you liking Schaffer's...
Yeah, they're pretty cool. 🤘
And for once a band where you can actually hear that the guy is playing an SG (that reedy, kinda bitey crunch).
We have an older song "Heartless Scat" of theirs for years on a special Spotify playlist.
Totally with you on the first 3 points. :cheers:
So-so on the fourth (I sorta make 'em work when I have too...playing EVH covers in a band for instance, but I naturally gravitate towards fixed bridges) and I installed a Dimarzio Vintage Heavy Blues II on my strat for exactly that reason; more...
As I've said before,
either Klotz LaGrange (high quality, but a tad stiff) or Sommer Spirit XXL; very flexible and high quality. Both have a low capacitance.
I used Mogami, various Tasker, Belden, Cordial and Monster (rock) in the past. Still have some of those.
So good quality, but nothing too...
Owned and sold the V3M (smaller, 4xEL84 version). Mine came with a scratched top cover, so I spray painted it black myself. Came out nicely, I think.
I was hoping too that it would be the ultimate 3-channel lunchbox amp for small gigs, but like @MadAsAHatter said, there was a certain fizziness...
@the rossness allow me to add my 2ct:
Years ago, I helped a buddy pick out a 100W tube head at a store, that had the nicer heads around, including some Diezels and the SLO100, alongside some Engls and Mesa's.
We played a whole bunch and in the end he settled for the Invader 100 like I have...
