Lynch on a Quick Rod

[Digital Jams]

I am a fan of Lynch's playing and check out every vid that gets posted, some I dig and some I do not. Look up Lynch threads and I am sure I have posted something in most of them.

Playing a Splawn has nothing to do with what I said and for reference here is imo Lynch when he was on fire,

Lynch in your vid is a shell of what he can do when he feels like it that day.

Again, nothing stated about tone but just commenting on Lynch just so I dont get grouped into the axe-fx stuff. I do comment on axe-fx clips as well John's today freaking ripped and Ed D. I consider a friend and always take the time to say something.

First of all shreder rules.

Secondly, shreder just might be a fanboi for Splawn amps. But if he is, he has been a fanboi of the same, single amp for three years straight. How many of us have been in love with a single amp for three years? Unflinchingly? Unwaveringly? There would be absoultely no use for internet amp forums if everybody else was as satisfied with their amps as Matt is with his.

Thirdly, Matt's support for Scott Splawn and his products is no different than many of us on here (like me) who really like Mark Cameron as a person and celebrate every single tiny step in a positive direction for Cameron Amplification. Matt (and I) do the same for Scott Splawn too. It's not that weird. And Matt has taken some beatings on Rig Talk in the past for his Splawn love.

I have to keep my love a little more under wraps as I am a dealer for Splawn and don't want to sound like some carnival barker for whatever I sell. I sell Splawn amps in my store but that doesn't mean I have to have a Quick Rod at home for the last 2.5 years. I'm like that Hair Club for Men guy, except I don't have any hair.

 

[shreder75]

probably seems that I'm such an uber fan cause I've had the same amp for over three years....in that time frame, some people have claimed no less than at least 4 amps to be the be all end all...

Here we go with the same ol same ol with you and your "I've rubbed my Splawn longer than most and you guys buy too many amps..... blah blah blah."

Give it a rest man.

Ejecta, if you didn't actually go out of your way at being such an insufferable asshole towards me I may actually feel sorry for you. But your skill in the way of dickdom comes from years of studied reflection and practice. I must've struck a nerve.

what I MEANT was, I only talk about what I have EXPERIENCE WITH. And the Quick Rod is the only amp I've owned or played for ANY LENGTH OF TIME FOR THREE YEARS. I don't offer up my opinion on things that I don't own or played for a half hour in guitar center.

THANK YOU!!! YOU get it.

 

[Shiny_Surface]

THANK YOU!!! YOU get it.

I've owned my main amp for 9 years, but I do like to swap in other pieces around it from time to time because I like to keep an open mind on what's available out in the market.

I also consider myself a "free agent" so I'm careful not to come across as too much a fan for any specific piece of gear.

Sup Chub!
First off I have been a fan of the Mesa Boogie MKIV since 1992 and Ive never waved from my opinion of that amp nor have I ever sold it ....just sayin


With that said, IMHO Matt gets shit from people not so much for his beliefs but how he chooses to represent himself and how he seems to process information or should I say how he mis-interprets what people are saying. The comments in this thread were aimed at Georges performance and leave it up to Matt to immeadiately think it was an attack on Splawn or the tone of the amp....tell me Im wrong?
IMHO he does this all the time and If Im being 100% honest, some of his threads come off like he needs to go talk to a psychiatrist.

yes I am busting on you Matt but there is some truth to what I'm saying

Asshole? For saying you do the same ol tired routine? mmmm ok but its true.

Struck a nerve?? About my buying habits? Oh man thats funny. I can afford to do what I do and I have fun doing it so thats why I like trying amps..... all in good fun. Struck a nerve about me having fun???? mmmmmm ok

what I MEANT was, I only talk about what I have EXPERIENCE WITH. And the Quick Rod is the only amp I've owned or played for ANY LENGTH OF TIME FOR THREE YEARS. I don't offer up my opinion on things that I don't own or played for a half hour in guitar center.

Then maybe you should have said that instead.

 

[Hacksaw]

yea it was lynch talk.. not splawn talk.. one mention was the sound.. and the camcorde.. normal stuff..

man.. it's like someone said EVH5153 around here

 

[Vrad]

Lynch played well I thought... It's the camcorder microphone... shit that could have been a phone or something.
Who said that was Mr Scary? Are you feeling ok? LOL!

Anyway, Lynch should have been playing a Splawn years ago. The QR does what his 'thing' perfectly.

Yes, now imagine that Randall Smith was cool and not a total tool and that you were friends with him. Would you look good in a Mesa Boogie cheerleader outfit? I think so!

Listen to the backing track, that is mr scary even though I cant believe it. Guess he has redone the song a tad according to others that have seen his in-store shows.

this thread sure passed the time today...so thanks for that

Yeah the backing track sounds kind of Mr Scary. I can't really make it out too well on these laptop speakers. The recording quality isn't very good. Regardless, he played just fine and I bet it sounded great in the room.

+1
I immediately thought it was Mr Scary too. It just seemed like he was improvising over the top of it. I have had a hard time with "modern day" Lynch. I love "classic" Lynch. Hopefully he comes around. Getting older doesn't need to mean he is becoming less relevant. He is a killer player when he wants to be and has a style all his own.

Matt has always been a cool guy. I have a lot of respect for his playing and has always been helpful to me.

As for being a "fanboi", who cares. If it bothers you that someone sings praises of their current amp then that is your problem. There could be some fault on both sides but who cares. Life's too short to get caught up in this crap.

I think he must have gotten mad and took his clip and went home.
