  • get rid of the maximizer and learn to eq

  • sounds like my speaker is broken

  • ffs before putting a sonic maximizer to a 5150 you should bias it to the right tone. this is chainsaw crap tone.

  • DUDE YOU GOT A 6505 AND A SONIC MAXIMIZER AND THIS IS THE END RESULT.... IM GONNA POST MY VIDEO WITH A 5150 COMBO WITH NO MAXIMIZER ...JUST A TC G MAJOR AND 10 BAND EQ...AND IM GONNA WHIP YOUR HALF STACKS ASS. YOU GOT TWICE AS MANY DISLIKES AS LIKES AND THATS BECAUSE YOURE USING BAD ASS EQUPITMENT AND IT SOUNDS LIKE SHIT

  • INVEST IN A NOISE GATE PEDAL, SAVE YOUR HEARING FOR WHEN YOUR IN YOUR EARLIER TWENTIES BRO

  • buy a proper mic...

  • My advise: take that piece of shit BBE and whatever the hell else out of the loop, turn your treble ALL the way down...use your mid sparingly and put some low end on that bitch....once you do that, then insert the maximizer back into the mix and trade off the amps LOW END for the BBE's LOW END, and again fine tune the process end of the BBE ever so slightly.

    Its "RACK GEAR" not a cover up my shitty sound with layer after layer of screechy bullshit.

  • nice ears:D

  • you'd be good if you were in drop g and had decent tone

  • you'd be good if you were in drop g and had decent tone

  • Dude, no offence, but you really have no idea how to use an amp "tone wise" do you... My 6505 sounds so much better than that..... you've turned so many people off who've thought about getting a 6505 matey... No offence, but you've got all the gear and no idea.

  • its been said before n i'll say it again

    your tone sucks

    how did u butcher the peavey so badly?!?

  • @Icemannsam it takes talent, dedication, and a sledge hammer.

  • you flat out suck at guitar. you look like you had fun with this, so i wont knock you too hard, but damn,,,,,at least correct that treble fucked tone. fyi, the bbe max is intended to alter the signal gate of the bass treble and mid freq, letting them out of your speakers at diff intervals, so use it to perfect your tone, not enhance the treble.....bc u killed it

  • drop c is gross

  • I'm pretty sure its the microphone quality that is making his tone sound bad.

  • hahahaha,,,funny vid man.... you are a good actor... i almost believed you truely were a dumb ass...truely...no...truely...D­umb ass

  • those are pinch harmonics not natural and that shounds like shit

    Im 14 been playing guitar for about 2 yrs. and could pown u

  • take off the bbe!

  • needs some low end. less mids and that should do it

  • Your tone SUCKS.

  • your tone sucks.

  • people like you don't deserve gear like this.

  • I can't tell if this is a serious video or not... Way to destroy a great sounding amp.

  • add some low end in there =D

  • nice peavey vandenberg.

  • gotta love drop C?

    hah

    tune to drop a

    fix up your tone

    either full on headbang or don't do it at all (no half ass)

    then repost this video

  • get some hair on ur head u wont look noob . nodding ur head :P

  • it's not really the amp as much as it is terrible sound recording. when are people going to learn, recording distortion with most video cameras is a bad idea....

  • u sure have mastered deep, toneless chugging...

  • Get rid of the Marshall cab get a Vader and you will have a massive sound improvement.

  • @hotbox81  vader cabs are meh man, too much power not enough work for the amp to do :P

  • sounds like....

    if my head under water

    ~Shit~

  • wow shit ass tone lol

  • I'd seriously spend an hour just dorking with all your settings on the amp. I think you went all out metal and left it. Play around with it. I get better tone out of a digitech distortion factory because I spent some time dorking with it and my amp's EQ's. Not band playing though

  • Ive heard better tone from a 5 watt kustom amp

  • @XXxESPxXX agreed, this sounds like shit

  • @XXxESPxXX bad camera mic = bad tone. its no the amp you idiot

  • @Drhappypill no, your amp is shit, you just dont know what good tone takes.

  • @XXxESPxXX how do you know my amp is shit? Maby i Don"t even own an amp of any sort but happen to know something about cameras and microphones and the simple fact that a $100-$200 camera does not have a good mic.

  • @Drhappypill exactly, lmao that mic wasnt picking up the tone at all. sucks too bcuz that was some awesome riffing! I would have liked to hear it in the room or on a recording! fuck these dipshits talkin out their ass

  • @XXxESPxXX It's cause of the camera....don't be trollin now...

  • @XXxESPxXX its a peavey what do you expect its all about that line 6 hd150 spider3

  • shiiiiittttyyyy

  • hey man, a little tip for your tone. You may want to consider changing the speakers in your cab. I have the same cab (1960a) and replaced 2 of the g12t-75s with v30s (X-pattern) and it sounds GREAT now. Also use a mid-heavy tone.

  • how many ohms does that hot plate have?

  • i think blue is 16 ohms

  • ew dude my broken crate head has a better tone than that.

  • C is too high. Get it to fucking G.

  • Just go Drop F AWESOME....:hust:

  • thats what i tune in

  • @Marquischacha or just get an 8 string :p

  • @Marquischacha

    its quite hard to tune a floyd rose down, just for the record, but yea youre right:)

  • nice

  • lol, plug your guitar into anything with an input and then slice the speaker with a razor a few times

  • when are people going to realize you can't judge a tone by a camera with a shit mic

  • hooooly shit!

  • this proves that you cant always buy great tone.

  • LOL!

  • no it just proves the camera is shit duh think next time

  • no.. it proves that a novice with good gear is not gonna make it sound good. especially when they dont know how to use the EQ.

  • dude cameras arent meant for recording audio they are meant for video so auio specs are suck 8 time outa 10 get your head out your ass stop being a jerk and realize what EQ hes using then think how youtube lowers video quality and how recording on not so expinsive digital cameras effect the tone coming through the small holes for the audio recording damn i hate snobby know-it-all who dont know shit and try to put ppl down shut the fuck up and dont even reply eat this and shut the fuck up!

  • and one who know 6505s know that they come out of the factory biased cold as fuck which gives you a fizzy cold sound, that is what im hearing, im guessing hes scooping the mids. and the cab hes using might not match the head as well as it could. a camera is not gonna capture the full tone of an amp, but its not gonna make it sound like complete shit unless its like 10 years old.

  • or the camera is shit you dumbass damn

  • got that amp. so awesome. but dude try experimenting different tone.

  • yeah i thought it was good but random question drop c or drop b

  • i would sound miles better its not recorded with a camera remeber.. so obviously it woiuld make the tone diffrent

  • How well does the hotplate work with this amp? any tone suck?

  • hey dude, if you like the sound you're getting, then good for you. but really, that setup is capable of soooooo much more.

  • hey could you tell me how, becuz i am getting a Peavey 6505 plus soon

  • nice but to crunchy for me miss

  • why spending 3000$ worth of gear if it sounds the same like a transistor amp with bad settings

  • bad azz!!!dude wat kinda guitar is tht?

  • I LOVE people arguing on youtube! =D

  • play in b

  • Why?

  • it would be more hardcore

  • c is for bitches.

  • rofl

  • i have to agree, i dont like this stuff just as much as any other person that complains, but hes playing what he wants to play and likes to play and isnt that what playing guitar is about? i just had to put that out there to all the people bitching about "wasting good equipment" so shut the fuck up

  • im glad to see you know how to work that 6505. pshhhhhh. what a waist of good equipment.

  • waist

  • It's very disheartening to see so many people using good equipment with cruddy guitars. There's seems to be an epidemic of retard tuning and tone deafness being the norm these days.

    I'd love to see a good player use a Gibson, or some other quality guitar with the knobs and the tuning at a more understandable pitch.

  • people just play with the equipment they want, so don't say it's crap because I think every one that plays with his equipment loves the sound.

    if it is a Gibson or a weird sounding guitar.

    it doesn,t matter because they like it.

  • Any more gain and we all wouldn't be able to tell how shitty you were doing at guitar.

  • you would never expect this dude to be a metal head, he looks more like a milkman

  • lmao... i agree, hes different, but i like it

    he looks like one good old fashioned church guy i know

  • Are you getting that tone strait from the head?

  • This guy plays his own style and is fond of it !!! So stop write your fucking comment about his playing !! All of you puussies who didnt even try to post a vid of your superb playing!!! Are you too fine for youtube !?!?!

  • thats a nice jamming there :) the room must be shaking. keep it up

  • dude, you're supposed to play music with guitar. :sss *facepalm*

  • agreed, facepalm.jpg

  • w00t! foruhmz langauge ftw!

  • get a fucking life dick wee, metal heads dont cut them selves, emo fag tards do, go do some research you fucking cunt

  • the only metal band of those 5 is sabbath and they never use harmonics.whore!!!!!!!!!!

  • you are fucking gay

  • shmeeet cmt c'est craintif :p

  • I don't see why people keep bashing the tone or how he's playing.

    I like it.

  • what kind of guitar is tht?dope .man!!!

  • you play good, but i dislike the sound of amp

  • F*** yeah keep on thrashing dude!

  • Hehe just heard the same bend over and over again lol

  • seriously mate, you are shit

  • hahahahahaha aww perfect

  • lol breakdown at 1:43

  • drop that bbe sonic max ASAP! it's bullshit!

  • it's funny when people see an instrument/amp they like and flame the video cause it's not played the way they'd like it. i enjoyed the video.

  • rockin!! ppl only criticize cos they see u as competition

  • for all of you who say it sounds like crap - how the fuck would you know?? have you ever tried to record through a camera mic? I'm actually stunned at the sound quality of many of these videos given the mics in cameras. also, this guy doesnt suck. he may or may not be good but he clearly doesnt suck. maybe you can jack it faster - so the fuck what? I dont see him making any claims to be the greatest do you? he's jammin so just chill.

  • i think i've seen your comments before...you really fucking hate the mics on cams, huh?

  • uhhhh......thats just a weird comment. the whole point is that its hard to judge someone's sound/tone through a camera mic. I dont hate camera mics and I dont love camera mics. they are great for what they are and like I said, I'm amazed at how good they do sometimes record the sounds coming out of some amps etc. Regardless, you're missing the point. Its more of a comment on peoples' attitudes/expectations/reality­.

  • nice equipment but I'd drop it another step down hah

  • you SUCK!

  • really man, maybe you should invest in some lessons before buying all this gear. but since you already have it id suggest taking some.

  • i honestly think that a marshall MG 15 watt solid state sounds better than that. This folks, just goes to show that simply buying a good amp isn't enough. You also can't be a tone deaf dipshit assfuck like this cuntbag. Shit tone dude, sell your gear and give up, you're hopeless.

  • i'm with you, and he's even got a sonic maximizer!

  • Now that's just uncalled for. It's obvious, from the title of the video that he's not trying to impress anyone--just chuggin' along there...

    And dont even try to pin the tonal issues on him--for all you know he could be using a garbage-ish mic or camera (which in most likely hood it is probably a camera); which I find to take tones badly.

    It's obvious that he knows SOMETHING about what he's doing, so give the guy some credit.

    Sidenote: tone-deaf generally applies to the vocalist.

  • sounds like shit....shit loads of gain is no substitue for shoddy guitar playing

  • omg thats hilarious haahahaha killing a whole genra but who cares and i think they better use that free hand to put a gun to there heads

  • eh i bet you guys all suck at guitar anyways. Who doesn't love just chuggin away for a while?

  • you fail!

  • i believe the title did say it was chugging =P

  • lol you guys are kinda hard on him, maybe he just got the amp. the day i got my 5150 II the first 30 minutes i played it i couldnt play anything good because i wanted to chug soo much to hear that awesome 5150 crunch sound hahah. watch my "peavey 5150" video. its terrrible ahah (o noes i spammed my page!)

  • wow dude you suck but nice equipment

  • tight song wat kind of guittar is that?is it an ltd?

  • sounds like someones listened to too much stone sour. also you get an A for repetetiveness.your playing the same fucknig thing over and over. its not really chugging harmonics or whatever. sounds like a cover of stone sour minus goodness

  • are you fucking special:| ?

    you do not deserve that amp at all

  • haha.

  • thoose deep harmonics sounds so friggin awesome.. i just have a major problem making them :'(

  • mf is freeballin!!!

  • Whats that on the headstock?

  • your sack is bouncing

  • LOL! YMMD HAHA

  • If you could hear more bass and contour in this video he would have a fuckin killer heavy chug sound

  • Yeah, I'd say this kinda vid does not really translate well on youtube.

  • 哈哈哈哈 这个兄弟真有意思 你是哪国人啊  我是中国人

  • is that a 482i bbe or an 882? and whats the blue unit above that. in the effects loop on my 6505+ i run a t.c. c300 gate/compressor, and a bbe 482i. i also run a '83 carvin 4x12 cab with celestion g12m70's. simple set up but you dont have to do much more with the sound out of these crazy ass amps.

  • The blue unit is a THD Hot Plate I'm assuming, power attenuator.

  • love it... what pickups u use?

  • look at the tags

  • killing brutal riffs, whatever the setup he got, his tone is good for what he played

  • Wow that's terribly uninspired and boring. You could make thousands of dollars playing metalcore/being a bullshit musician.

  • Listen mate, if you don't like what he is playing why don't you just close the fucking video and not insult the poor guy? Atleast he is giving it a go. If you think people who play metalcore music are "bullshit musicians" how about you post a video of you playing your little piece of shit so we can all insult you.

  • thats some horrible amp tone right there

  • probably due to a bad audio recording method (AKA digital camera)

    the only way to clearly record audio is either with software and audio ports/mics or with a really good hand held digital recorder, which can run for a lot

  • Check out the Black Dahlia Murder (A Vulgar Picture). Really great drop C. Triplets.

  • im sorry, but your a horrible guitar player.

    and whats the point of having a chromatic tuner when your unable to use it due to it being completley covered by piles of pointless shit you wasted your money on.

  • HAHAHAH..

  • they're probably noise gates for this ridiculous gain

  • lmao

  • your playing shit riffs, play some proppa!!

  • would the bass line be the same notes, or would you mix it up and integrate intervallic half-diminished jazz runs?

  • yo ive got pretty much the same setup as you expect i gota 6505+ how do u have your pedals and maximizer set up? thru the effects loop?

  • i love and hate my 5150. killer face melting lead tone but not very tight tracking. farty cleans at high volume. horrible crunch tones.. the gain seems to be on or off. anybody had any luck getting some usable crunch tones?

  • try replacing pre amp tubes first

    and if that doesn't work, replace all tubes.

    but save the old ones just incase

  • i put NOS tubes in the preamp. it sounds very tonally rich, has a lot more gain & a great smooth sustain into feedback when holding a note value. but, it still has 6 gain stages for the clean (same as the lead), only 1 tone stack, & the "crunch" is w/o a foot switch and sounds crappy. Im installing an adjustable bias, choke, & dual tube rectifier to try & compress it more & give it a more natural musical tone w/ tighter tracking. if that doesnt work im tossing the bitch out the fuckin window.

  • the amp??

  • im frustrated. i want a dual rectifier road king mk II or a H&K triamp mk II.  those amps are sweet. 5150 has comparable lead tone w/o pedals but those amps are just better quality and also have good cleans and crunches.

  • play some better stuff...

    and lower that strap and guitar bro...but descent shit...

  • me too i love drop C ;)

  • really awesome. just one question though, i have a hard time doing pinch harmonics on the low e bass string, when in drop c. do i just gotta work on my technique or should i get some heavy distortion pedal? im using a bc rich bich and a 15 watt fender amp with some decent distortion.

  • Everything kind of plays into it. For example, some pickups are easier to do it on than others. But if you practice your technique you'll be able to overcome any obstacles. One tip: try slightly different spots on where your pick plucks the string. You can get different sounding harmonics and or no harmonics depending on where you pluck. Sometimes you pluck a "dead zone" other times you nail a screaming harmonic. Just keep at it my friend, and soon it'll come natural without even thinking.

  • First of all, get a decent amp. Second of all, use the bridge pickup.

  • your saying a 6505 isn't a decent amp

    you really must not know what your saying

  • Dude... that was a response "anactivegrenade". He said he has a fender 15w (im guessing frontman). The 6505 is great.

  • you say "when in drop C" so i can infer your main tuning is either standard or d.

    when you tune to C you need thicker strings to accommodate for the lost tension.

    i play earnie ball skinny top heavy bottoms and they're great for C, D standard, and B

  • ur to tall to play metal with the head banging- it just looks so funny, lower ur guitar, and power stance- i cant stop laughing- its just so funny

  • i dont get why poeple a being so mean. this is really good. i would definiatly buy this guys cd

  • Hey thanks man. I appreciate it.

  • no problem
