Billy Blades Update

[charveldan]

With the right marketing and R & D Blades amps could easily succeed.

Plenty of room in the ever growing music gear industry.

It would also help if everyone came down with a severe case of amnesia

Well, Dan is right here.

Regardless if you guys all think the cabs and shells are hideous. I garauntee there any many players out there who would LOVE a hubcab on their combo amp or players who think lightning bolts are the coolest thing ever.

I kinda dig the Venom look. One thing for sure that no one can argue is that Blades amps look different than every other design. Now don't burn me at the stake here , I very well could be wrong but I do not think that all guitarists love that typical and classic Marshall look. I do not.

As far as amnesia. There are what 100 people 200 people tops that give a shit about the forum threads let alone even know about the story and accusations weather true or false?

Hi Mike Himmel here, I played on the Blades amp video..

I'm a noob to all of this forum/rig talk.. It's a pleasure to be onboard with people who are so passionate about amp's and tone. I can't speak to the earlier commentary about Billy Blades, however I can say he has personally treated me with kindness and respect. As to those who don't like the visual content of the Blades video, it's ok I'm not offended. I would find it very difficult sit there and watch an ugly guy like me in a 7+ minute video, so I tried to spice it up. I edited the video so I apologize for any fails visually.

Here's the latest video using the amp

Thanks, and it's a great honor to be allowed here on this forum.

I don't care what the rest of the forum says. That video is badass!

Great tone and great playing. welcome to the forum.

Well Mike welcome to the forum. Let me give you a crash course to success. I as a player of 40 years don't want to see a montage' of other dewds and Harleys, could care less, could even care less about your note for note compilation.

Youtube is full of 8 year olds who can play Eric Johnson and anyone else note for note.

Guys want pussy and good looking trim.

Find this gal above for ur next video.

And tell Billy to come up with a cross between a Jet City, Bugera and SLO at a blue collar working mans price and all you fuggars will be rich.

Thank you that will be 5K ...

Hi Mike , if it actually you i would like to say i enjoy your playing style and production.
Is it possible to do some Dokken/Lynch vids with the same amp and production like you do for the EVH stuff ?

See, there you have it kindness and respect. The same exact communication I got from Billy Blades. I am sorry to those who experienced anything different but for those who have had no experience and are just judging off something you read then shame on you, no cookies.

Now that Mike is here we may have another 40+ pages.

Long live the Bladez thread, this may be the biggest thread in Rig-Talk history.

Thank you so much for your comments and your candor concerning my videos and guitar playing, both good and bad.. I apologize if my videos were offensive to anyone, it was just for fun really. Also my guitar playing style is not for everyone so it's okay to say whatever you feel concerning that. I joined because I thought this could be group of really cool guy's who liked great guitar tone and wanted to share about it is all.

I look forward to learning more in the future..

Best,

Mike

Damn, coming to Billy Blades Talk rarely results in something worth the visit. Great tone and playing!!!! And video's pretty cool too.

 

[Kapo_Polenton]

What do you mean your playing isn't for everyone? I thought the vids were a bit cheesy and self serving but nobody can deny that you are a monster player. Loved that part. I do believe you could make a metal zone through a solid state fender sound good too though..

You're an idiot Dan

You clearly didn't watch the video or you would have seen the chicks that are much hotter than the skank in the video that you posted. And if you have been playing for 40 years, you should have hung it up 39 years ago.

Honestly I'm getting tired of the attempts at aping VH riffs and tone all the time in demo videos. I agree pretty cool video though.

charveldan..

The "gal" in the video is my wife. I would ask that you please be respectful concerning personal comments. I can understand if you don't care for the quality or content of the video's or you don't care for my playing, that's ok. I just joined this forum today to make new friends and talk about amp's, tone chasing and fun music stuff. I didn't sign up here today to be attacked.

thanks in advance for understanding,

Mike

Charveldan exists on a number of guitar forums... well the ones he hasn't been banned from or run out of town on the rails that is.

He all at once presents himself as internet toughguy/bully, guru of tone, master of his domain, and maintains the very creepy ability to post pictures of women who aren't quite women, at a moments notice.

He is really just looking for friends, and thinks that typing in an ebonics/tween manner will attract people to him.

Best bet is to ignore him, or as some do, just turn his posts around, right back into his sweaty little lap.

BTW, great video and amazing playing. What kind of delay/effects are you using?

Boy did you ever come to the wrong place.

JK there are some alright people here. Alot of trolls and assholes though. I have been guilty myself.

I like Rig-Talk because it is right in the middle of the road.

It is active and there are alot of knowledgable people here but not TOO active like some other forums where it is so hard to keep up with all of the unorganised chaos.
