Thanks for sharing! His cab looks kinda weird, 2x10?

 

[bartmcartman]

Wow! That was awesome! Major props to his band as well. That drummer was fantastic. Talk about in the pocket!!!

 

[turmoil]

that's awesome. i really dig his tone.
any idea on what amp/effects unit he is using?

 

[RockStarNick]

That was fantastic! Right on! Great phrasing, makes it look effortless.

Man, I can't think of anything more boring than being a bassist in a guitar instrumental trio.

He's got a Palmer speaker simulator on top of his amp.

 

[King Guitar]

All in the fingers his tone is very good though.

He is, without a doubt, very good, but Alex Flouros is still my guitar idol! No one makes it look more effortless than Alex.

I don't think it is. I have a few, there is no indicator light on them. What he is using has one. I thought it was too, but I really don't think it is.

No clue what it is, definitely something palmer though, in High-Def you can see the Palmer logo

You guys are right. But it looks like there are a few extra dials on the one side. Maybe he had it modded for a loop?

[Jim Soloway]

[Digital Jams]

I thought it sounded really good and I liked his tone too!!

 

[Variable]

Definitely talented, but the song didn't really do anything for me. Am I the only one who thinks some of the "virtuoso" playing today is a bit boring and formulaic? Maybe I just long for the days of players like Jimmy Page whose rampant mistakes actually contributed to the emotion of the song.

Meh, I'm an opinionated bastard today


No questioning the awesomeness of his tone though

I like virtuoso playing if its interesting, but this had me yawning after less than a minute. No excitement or passion. Pleasant enough little melodies... unquestionably superb execution... but... (snore.......... YAWN.... nigh nigh.....)

Go listen to "Erotic Cakes" if ya want excitement these days IMO... Can't wait for the next one...
