I love this! It just goes to show you that even the greatest of guitar players are still human. I think Lincoln Brewster just moved up on my list of favorite players. Mad props for the human side of professional musicians! LOL!!!
It appears like there was something Lincoln was not pleased with during the song, like he had a hard time hearing something in the in-ear mix or something. You could tell he was frustrated.
@shred440 yeah, live he's been playing down a 1/2 step. probably to save his voice, but in this song with the drop D also down 1/2 step, it sounds really beefy. If only he would then play the intro riff to Unchained by VH, that would be epic.
@SteveHubbardGuitar Steve, I've watched a lot of your videos and you definitely know tone, but can you really tell from this video if his tone is better? I'm sure it is since the Axe FX is in a different league than the X3L, but its really hard to tell from a compressed youtube video recorded through a cam mic. He could be playing through a Peavey Bandit for all I know (assuming if I just heard the audio and didn't see the axe fx right behind him)
@tighttritenight You're right - especially with the cam mic thing.. and in reality, the FOH engineer has the end say of his tone.. All in all, I still like this tone better than any of the vids I've watched w/ the Pod.. It seems to have a better high end, and definitely a more scooped sound.
Half-step! XD

miss his pod sound? are you kidding...the axe destroys the pod tone X 100. his tone has never been better.

I guess his voice is wearin out. His guitar is tuned down a half step. Still awesome though. I miss his POD sound though

@lovescarguitar I Know that, but his other strings still are not tuned to standered E, they are in Eb.
Christplayer824 1 year ago
@Christplayer824 the songs and lessons from him ive seen and heard are in standard E tuning. idk about his older songs
lovescarguitar 1 year ago
@lovescarguitar Right, hes always in standard E, this is the first video I have seen him in where hes not in standard E. Thats all Im saying
Christplayer824 1 year ago
@lovescarguitar Actually, in this video, it's drop Db with the rest of the guitar tuned Eb. On his album, your right it is drop D though.

@Christplayer824 this tone smokes the pod IMO. sounds much more like a real amp, and seems to have more 'oomf'
