NAMM 09 - Andy Wood demoing his new Suhr Modern in the Suhr Booth

[pktunes]

@SurveyofFilmMusic: Please post a video of your music that you hold in such high regard... I eagerly await to see what quality of music comes out of your world. Probably songs about loneliness.

[fatherofusall]

Great vid..I received a Rasmus modern today. Love the guitar but the modern elliptical neck seems a bit fat for what I wanted to do with this guitar. Rock. Fast, shredding..hoping for something closer to the thicker ibanez necks. Which neck do you think? Even c slim or extra c slim? Plus Rasmussen are 16 radius. Should I upgrade to a modern m2 with 10-14 radius? I do own a fender American deluxe with 9.5-14 radius..like it but wanted the modern to be a bit faster or shreddy..problem is I have t

[SurveyofFilmMusic]

Do you find the scrunchie to be something you always play with, or you're comfortable either way?

[downfromup]

@SurveyofFilmMusic either way. i only put it on during multi finger tapping then slide it off.

cheers!

A Wood

[SurveyofFilmMusic]

we all have our personal standards. i respect yours.

[SurveyofFilmMusic]

you can always request the vid to be removed. scott (henderson) has done this w/vids that weren't up to par. for me, if the guitar is outa tune, i don't proceed, if there's a cam on then i DEF. tune... yer a great player, so it does you a mega disservice and it misrepresents... best!

[downfromup]

@SurveyofFilmMusic yeah i could request but ya know, we are all human, we all are out of tune at some point and we all play less than we want sometimes. when vids like this of me are up i just take it as thats just part of it ya know? just goofing off ya know? its just kinda less than cool to imply that i couldn't hear that it was out of tune through all the "fast noodling shit" was a silly statement. i mean, yeah i was just noodling, it was by no means meant as a performance ;)

A Wood

[SurveyofFilmMusic]

all that fast noodling shit and you can't hear the axe is OUT OF TUNE!

[downfromup]

@SurveyofFilmMusic i could hear it was OUT OF TUNE i just didnt give a shit because i was just handed the guitar for the first time. i was to excited about having my first suhr i could care less about screwing with tuning, hate that this random camera vid and its lack of professionalism ruined your youtube viewing ;)

[MrCheese5]

How can i get those tones from me Humbucker Humbucker setup? curious as to what wiring you got in your guitar.. love your playing man keep shredding!!!

[madshredder32]

Hey Andy, What do you think about the PT100 and the OD100se+? If you had to pick one which would you prefer? Any input would be much appreciated.

[downfromup]

@madshredder32 love em both! the pt for more marshall upper mid bite and the od-100 for more low mid smoothness to the gain.

[granpastreetz]

Andy is a badass...but I'm shocked that he doesn't hear that his guitar is out of tune. lol or he probably don't give a damn. listen at 1:57

[downfromup]

@granpastreetz

@zeman1000 I'm into rock and metal but I would never make fun of country, especially the way this guy plays it.

[impala666]

[malamutelocomotive]

This guitar player is incredible but he doesn't play in tune.

Too fast to be able to hear it?

[downfromup]

i just pulled the guitar out of the case in this vid, you can hear the strings stretching as i played, i just was too excited about the new guitar to give a shit about tuning it ;)

A Wood

[malamutelocomotive]
