Port City 212 - Mesa Boogie Mark Five - Suhr S4 - TC Electronic Nova Delay

[Roubster]

Sounds great man! How come you dont have the Mark V anymore? I really want to get one and not just for metal shinanigans...and I'm waiting for my S3 patiently as well hehe. By the way, nice outro with Mr. Howe's Direct Injection!!! He really kills it on that one...you did a nice job man.

Oh, and you have the SSC circuit on that S4 by the way? Thing sounds dea quiet.

[hkonmoen]

you've got some phase-stuff goin on there, I think.. some top missing.. a bit "closed".. try to place the condencer mic even ferder away from the cabinet. could just be my speakers here that do not sound good enough.. :P great playin man! love it!

[kombik98]

Didn't care much for the sounds early in the clip but I'm glad I hung out for the stuff you played with the backing track. VERY nice moves. Wish I was that good. If this doesn't offend you it reminds me of some of the stuff Slash plays. Bluesy but fast. IMO it's easier on the ears than the normal shredder fare. Keep up the good work.

I like farther micing away slightly off axis with my Mark III too, I feel it captures more of the warmth, depth and "Boogie-ness" of the amp. Excellent tones!

How are the Eminence speakers treating you?

[Alexkvx10]

woo direct injection, sweet playing.

[UGNecrophagist777]

Sounds amazing. Great playing too. How would you compare the port city to other 212 cabs like an orange or mesa recto 212?

[SteveHubbardGuitar]

hey bud, check out my other video on this cab and i do a verbal review, touching on that exact question

[estring777]

Great vid!!!

What humbucker do you have in the Suhr??

[omfgwhale]

woah, what mode were you using for the jam at the end?

[thestillbornone]

Hey guys, Shredder steve here, I've been experimenting with flashier t shirts a bit more. This one has a dual sleeve set up, cotton/polyester blend and regular neck width. The logo has sort of a weird position where it kinda just goes all over the fabric in most every direction, certainly off axis. Im just kinda messin around, trying to get a bit more of a metal edge to my look.

[nezmaster1]

what setting are u using m/s?

[shredd99]

Sounds good. Where can i buy such talent?

[mazenquadri]

wow, you're pretty good

[RandomHero12]

Hey dude, sounds great. Is that some wear on your Suhr's board around the 5th fret?

[SteveHubbardGuitar]

its filth! i usually clean the fretboard every 2 months or so.. its actually all over the place, you just can tell because of the poor lighting.. you would laugh if you could actually see how dirty it is

[meta1983]

1:29~2:08 is so great. What is the song name?

[SteveHubbardGuitar]

just some improv, actually! inspired by the beautiful modded delay sounds :D

[meta1983]

ye the delay sound is awesome~ what is the delay setting? i just got a TC gmajor hopefully i can get same delay sound

[nezmaster1]

SETTINGS SETTINGS SETTINGS! Please post your settings in every video if you could, it would be an incredible help to fellow Mark V owners.

[SteveHubbardGuitar]

yo! with the exception of the gain, i am using the manuals recommendation for the MKIIC+ mode! hard to believe, eh?

[nezmaster1]

@SteveHubbardGuitar Hahah totally.

[shreddlord]

nice sound man!

[col33145]

sound nice mate  love that mark 5 tone

[yamitanomura]

fantastic sound and playing.

Keep on Rocking

[MyLifeChanger]

Really cool! Sounds so nice. I can't wait to get my Mark IV. Do you play together with other people as well? It would be cool to hear how you play in a band-situation.

What's the track you're playing over?

[SteveHubbardGuitar]

yessir, i play in a few bands.. rock / hardrock, and a piano based band.. it cuts through well and sings! the track is a backing of greg howe's "direct injection"

[ManAliive]

Great videos/tone. At 2:14 what channel/stage are you on on the Mark V? Is that Ch.2/Crunch?  I'm waiting on one I ordered from MESA after having sold my lonestar. Love that tone. Take care!

[SteveHubbardGuitar]

channel 2 / crunch mode, no eq, 90 watts.. its such a versatile amp! you'll see what i mean when you get one :D
