Rivera Ktre Demo w/ Jon Donais of Shadows Fall

[pietromestu]

why using a fu***** maxon on a rivera!! krank that thing up!!

[MrWeegee64]

His amp sounds awesome, picked a KR100 sounds just as good. boost it with a sd-1 keeley mod pedal.

[TheSwampLion]

i use a BBE GreenScreamer, their version of a tubescreamer. it's pretty sick.

[aligatorsandwitch72]

Haha, did they release this video before ESP announced the Jon Donais signature guitar?

[bornburied]

awesome sounding amp!!!!

[LambOfGod4Life888]

i v bought the Rivera KTRE combo but it sounds not so hard and dry, it is heavy but not with the dirty distortion, can anyone tell me how to make the distortion dirty, such as mick thomson's distortion or mark morton's by using KTRE COMBO?

[FungusLabel]

boost it with maxon od808 or ibanez ts9

[ahvaimusicom]

even the 808 would work

[LambOfGod4Life888]

@FungusLabel In theory, is it ok to boost a tube amp with boss mt2?

[FungusLabel]

I have never had boss mt2 but it is a distortion pedal so its not good idea to boost amp with it. Check out overdrive pedals, but really I recommend Maxon OD808 Every amp sounds like on steroids with it.

[Dragonf4ll]

@LambOfGod4Life888 :

I'd put a Tubescreamer in front of it. The Tubescreamer should give you exactly what you want ;)

[LambOfGod4Life888]

@Dragonf4ll You mean the Ibanez tubescreamer? i would try, thanks!

[Dragonf4ll]

@LambOfGod4Life888 Yeah, I mean it. You could try the Maxon one, too...just Like Jon Donais here. But in my opinion the sound of the TS808 Reissue is a bit better.

[nekromachine]

@Dragonf4ll They are made in the same factory. The exact same pedal except the maxon is cheaper RRP. Where did the Ibanez TS808 pickup any extra 'bit better' as it simply does not :palm over face:

[catstudent1]

one of the few metalcore band that actually writes good music

[veers0r]

Sounds quite a bit like a rectifier + ts to me.

[pivotshabz]

4:33 O.o was that the riff from "fleshold"??

[LoGAtRUnEaRtH428]

i dont get how he alt. pick the way he does when hes going on the fast runs....the pick is almost completely flat and parallel with the string...

[DethDaeNossi]

He is so good.

[scarter1192]

I knew the brotha could shred... But that was the best Ive seen from him

[VOCIFERLOL]

amazing song, i like metal

[leopardspots13]

i love jon! can't wait til 9-15-09!!!!!!

[ShadowsFallMetalGods]

New Signature model it looks like!!! Thats a bare bones white ESP!!! Nice!!! Hopefully esp releases that baby soon. Im buying it for sure.

[Riveraprod]

oops!!

[ShadowsFallMetalGods]

Were we not supossed to find out about this beast? Its sweet looking for sure.

[JDK0316191]

"Oops" what?

[Riveraprod]

new video will explain that in a few days

[JDK0316191]

It's already released but just not in white!

[ShadowsFallMetalGods]

Yea i know im a jon donais nut. I own all his guitars for a collectors purpose. I have both esps in black and natural and both washburns. I only use the natural washburn time to time because its my first ever guitar. I want a white esp like that and actually thought about ordering a custom shop one same shape and what not cant now. Jon beat me to the punch lol.

[JDK0316191]

I don't believe they released the natural ESP!

[JDK0316191]

I was wrong about them not releasing the Natural satin one. YOU SPENT 4FUCKINGTHOUSAND ON IT?

[ShadowsFallMetalGods]

Yes all custom shop esps are about that much

[JDK0316191]

But there is a Jon Donais model on zzoudns for 999!

[ShadowsFallMetalGods]

Yea thats the ltd not esp. Im not playing the bllack guitar otherwise i would of got the ltd. I have the ltd alexi 600 se and im starting to become disappointed in it . I just picked up a bullet for my valentine matt tuck signature jackson and loved it over the ltd. Im selling the pink guitar for the jackson because its a pro series jackson not a machine cut ltd. The esps are like jacksons hand cut not machined like the ltd.

[JDK0316191]

I am a Mick Thomson nut so I know exactly where you stand.

[asianaxeman]

@ShadowsFallMetalGods SOUNDS EXACTLY like old trivium, esp is a bit simple here, same old bog standard emg sound

[untoldguitarist]

This video doesn't do this amp any justice because the Ktre sounds amazing when heard in person.

[ahvaimusicom]

holy crap that amp has balls!

[cauzer1595]

shadows Fall....Got Nothing To Say JUst That jason bittner is an awesome drummer.

[JDK0316191]

How about that Jon Donais is a fuckign monster!

[ahvaimusicom]

no really?!

[JDK0316191]

he is!
