My guitar has something to say....

[Casteanguitar]

Plexi + jcm 900 + jcm 800 + Riffguy = Fire!!!

[JonasSweden1]

Paul, the tone and playing on this clip is just,,,,,,ridicously good....! Very tasty, classy and wonderful. A sheer joy to listen. ALMOST makes me want to throw my gear...;-) Thanks for posting. Cheers from Sweden - Jonas

[thecreecher08]

who needs 3 marshall whole stacks......riffguy

[jackstroem1324]

what is the ¨not marshall thingy in the right corner :/

[technoguyx]

@jackstroem1324 A Hiwatt cab, apparently.

[sunburd200]

he shreds but no feeling

[Animeoverlord00]

@sunburd200 Get lost troll. We know your youtube history you big tough guy you, go whine to your momma.

[desastermaster2010]

@sunburd200 WHAT?????r u dumb?

[jujututu]

i think you should spend some of that money you spent on amps foe guitar lessons!! just sayin!

[worldindusa]

@yojomofo123 tape your ears back on man, this guy fuckin shreds

[iBinDaLugge]

What do my eyes see? Yes.

HI - fuckin - WATT

[sonick808]

some people are good, some are great, but only a few have "it". You have "it". 

[KingofPho75]

what is the output on the riffbuckers?

[riffguy]

@KingofPho75 The ones in this guitar are fairly mild...7.5k bridge and 7.0k neck. My high output set are....23.0k bridge and 16.0 neck.

[KingofPho75]

@riffguy thats pretty good pickups then

[AmericanSpiritNatura]

She is beautifull :)!

And the guitar is not bad, too.

[1971SuperLead]

That was cool enough.

[Muso9419]

awesomeness. what scale are you using? minor pentatonic?

[8000cheese]

Your guitar was telling some jokes to me, it has a dirty mind dude!

[davidt3400]

Nice.

[solitajre222]

My guitar has something to say too, unfortunately im not good enough to translate it yet... 

[teegee1952]

Dood... you need to strut this stuff on sixstringplanet [com]

It's great!

[AnthonyConway]

i just seen a bad comment about this!! how the hell can you see anything short of spectacular in this kind of talent no matter if you find it catchy or not!!! go and listen to bloody lady gaga or some shit if you want to be humming pure crap all day like most people!

[fadey2009]

Your Guitar have Ban Spoken "Lets Rule the ROck N Role World"!!!!!

[daletag]

YES, YES, YES!!!! THIS is the ONE!! Is this probably as fat as you could get w/o a ton of feedback? Or, could you wind it with just a TAD more output? ahaha, I mean - this has a RIDICULOUS sound!! I'm just wondering IF you could get it a LITTLE dirtier because I would like to COVER my mistakes and tuning issues with a little less "clean" sound as you have here. If not - no prob!! This is a THOUSAND times improvement over what I have now!!! Btw - GREAT SONG!! You're a HELL of a composer!

[MrRocknroll95]

love the title man!!

[horsecoollover19]

extremely sexy tone :)

[ZakkHendrix666]

love the bluesy feel, keep rockin!

[trilegdog]

well done

[ThePontifix]

The tool that said you have a ways to go to be "Michael Schenker" forgot to plug in his brain when he got up that day. Schenker will never know what you've already forgotten. Comes from being marinated in the shit for 20+ years. Rock on.

[gremlinjr]

nice... pretty clear... but ya still have ways to go to be Michael Schenker.

[ledzep4226]

ur other vids are cool though

[thesecondcaller]

soulful and brilliant, my opinion

[eric1114piromaniac]

good lord all those amps god you are amazinfg hha can i have one

[xTiLkx]

@eric1114piromaniac

You know what they say:

What is better than a Marshall half stack?

3 Marshall half stacks!

[mooch666]

Oh, I was gonna say an ENGL.

[MrWhatthefunk69]

that is true but three FULL STACKS are better. you know, like the ones behind him? haha

[w0ohO]

@xTiLkx and whats better than 3 marshall half stacks? 3 Marshall Full stacks

[SLAYERFAN66610]

Can I buy some Riffbuckers?

[fuckyoucauseyousuck]

kickass guitar dude! And am I wrong if I say that Waterstone guitars are relatively cheap? I've never heard of that brand before but checked it out on their website so..

[L7dreamtheaterfan]

hey riffguy! nice plying. but im guessing this is improv? Because you onlly changed scales when you needed to push an octave. its not a bad thing, its just something that happens in improv. good job man

[SaulHudsonGibson]

ahh...so your saying the asshole next door should shut his whiney mouth cause he makes more noise than you with his bitch ass whining....now i get it

[lkolla10]

i like the camera, you can see the beauty of the marshalls in this one, i just got my first full stack, its a crate but i love how it looks in my basement

[Metalhed09]

Great use of the blues scale...I like it.

[thewoodss]

catrolean is a douche and i don't care what u say after u see this but in order to be a musician, you have to know theory. Some people but not very make it by without it but u should know THEORY to be famous! THATS WHY NOT VERY MANY PEOPLE ARE FAMOUS!!!

[catrolean]

What are you talking about? Many people who know theory are not famous. All I was trying to say was that the way most people get their Marshall stacks and Les Pauls is by getting a job, working, earning money for themselves, and spending money on guitars instead of a shiny car or house.

[thewoodss]

thats my plan actually to buy guitar equip 1st than an apartment and a car. im just sayin if u dont know theory, you wont be able to continue being a musician or a rockstar whatever a rockstar is these days

[catrolean]

I'm sure he knows theory. You don't have to know anything whatsoever to be a rockstar, but you should if you want to be a musician, though you don't have to. Sometimes people just play what they feel. kudos on the plan. I'm going guitar equipment, rented apartment, and more guitars.

[grenadaification]

you have to marketable to be famous...........you dont necessarily have to know theory .......you think ashley simpson knows theory? is she famous?

[thewoodss]

no she probably don't and thats why no one sees much of her anymore until she pays someone to make a song for her haha

[catrolean]

IT seems like nowadays no one wants to be a musician, they want to be a rock star. People don't understand that to live a musician's lifestyle, that means working an ordinary shitty job and not getting everything you want.

[lkolla10]

thats why they just wanna be rock stars. WORK IS ROCK, ROCK IS MONEY, MONEY GETS EVERYTHING YOU WANT.

[grenadaification]

everything you might think you want........................i wonder if shannon hoon got everything he wanted?

[catrolean]

Yeah, I was kind of expecting a talkbox solo or something, but it sounds good.

[EvaSlash]

hey if you work for marshall or something can you give me a deal on some amps?

[mcnutters17]

LOL...your serious?

[blueishblackrain]

jesus thems were some tasty licks

[vetmusician]

I know alot of you guys werent around then, but this sounds like EVERY guitar jam in 1986...............or me just playing guitar while I feed my Cat

[jhump2431]

80's ???????

[PabloakaChuck360]

You got too much money and too much time....Great!!! Keep the good work. Seriously, are you like CEO of some major company or the music companies just love you????

[grimchain]

what do u mean he has too much time.

[awesomeportal]

If you save your money you can have this stuff to. This shit doesn't cost that much. Unless you want vintage gear.

[bulletproovemusic]

Great!

[slashguitarhero100]

ohhh man he loock like hes got somthing in his ass

[justin402055]

Slow boring ehh

[caillousucks]

Check out Twisted Blues loser.....funny..you're the only asshole who thinks that.....

[bonchasilark]

the guitar says "kill me"

[barclosed]

when did you first pick up a guitar

[variablel]

My asshole has somthing to say .....fffffffffffffffffffffffff­ffffffftttttttttttttttt.( translation boring)

[combobommen]

lol

[markelsupremo]

XD hahahahahaha Nice

[Greatmk]

Your guitar has a way with words.

[foxygrandpa20]

riffguy how do i get a riffbucker pickup i want 2 for my washburn guitar they sound so good omg !!!

[riffguy]

You can order them directly from me. Send me a message if you're interested and I can give you the details.

[woodtick71]

damn that is a tasty jam! and the amps are actually 38 years old?

[longlivepantera]

I'd say your guitar makes a pretty damn good point.

[guitarmaster850]

the guitar has spoken man

[archenemylover1]

How much do all of those stacks cost all together??? 20 000$????

[ZakkHendrix666]

Your Guitar Haz Spoken, LET THERE BE ROCK!

[fxmaster11]

wow!!!!!!!!!!!! let me tell you a guitar make of cardboard would sound good on those marshall amps lol

[LittleNICKYYYY]

its talkin shit ahahahahahaha not reeli thats reeli gd

[Blader999]

Great story :]

[GibsonSGlenn]

i now what youre guitar is talking about

:)

[strumpluckbang]

damn im so jealous .. only guitar stack i got is like super clean ..

can anyone recomend any cheap metal amps ?

[guitarists2000]

line 6 spider 3 its solid state but sounds like a tube amp and if u do en up getting it get from a 75 watt and higher because u will get more channels to play with hope i helped

[namohasan]

Line 6 spider III (or IV, they just came =D) , 15W sucks, start at 30W =)

[imneji]

just get yourself a pedal. boss metal zone is what i use, works pretty well.

[asianonkrack]

lol i had three boogie stacks that size before 4500 a piece

[CipollaErMeyo]

that pickups have that fuckin' punchy tone with a lot of harmonic response... they're fuckin' awesome... but i think that you can't buya pickup if you don't try it...

[austinhull20]

how much are your pickups? and where can i get some?

[riffguy]

They start at $130 USD. You can order them directly from me.

[mrmres]

@riffguy $130 USD for a neck & bridge set seems way too cheap, & $130 USD for a single bridge pickup seems waaaaaaaay too much. Please pick another number

[riffguy]

@mrmres $130 each is the base price for an open coil humbucker or $250 for a calibrate bridge/neck pair. If you compare these prices to any other boutique hand wound pickup manufacturer, you'll find it's not out of line. I'm not talking about mass production companies like DiMarzio or Seymour Duncan who wind the majority of their pickups on automated machines.

[rockerdude29]

@mrmres you can get dimarzio/seymour/emg pickups from $60-100+ new each,but ive seen several hand wound sets go for upwards of $300. this isnt a bad price.

[supergamerocks]

dude, your awsome, jesus....

[sgplayer1987]

how many guitars do you own oh my god

[riffguy]

Close to 30....I've lost count.

[samiam196]

wher u get all the money

[riffguy]

I get it from years of working.

[samiam196]

dawm what work do you do dude if u get paid that much

[riffguy]

Remember, I said years of working. This also means years of scrimping, saving, looking for deals, buying damaged equipment and fixing them.

It's not from being rich, it's from being resourceful.

[samiam196]

cool cool well keep on rocking bro

[Masterblag]

Génial :) !!

[ftfnavyseals]

I was half expecting the guitar to talk and just be like, "Hey"... I have to admit, I'm kinda dissapointed. lol Wicked playing, very classic

[poochlives]

what's going on over there, is it a 900 on the left, and a 1959 or 1987 model 800 in the middle?

[Telebiters]

maan u rock....

that's just awesome (cry) xD

haha

[GibsonSGlenn]

i now watt your guitar is saying to me

really good playing

[guitarist0201]

fuckin beautiful

[Quinton1019]

Why have i never herd of you?

[DerSchlaueBaer]

is the right one a vintage plexi or a reissue?

[riffguy]

It's not a plexi, it's a 1971 Marshall Major.

[tonemeister3]

marshalls rule! \m/

[PhoebusRose64]

i smell money :P

[compodude]

do you do gigs? that would be epic to see

[reditreefrogs]

Your great! not good...but great!

[Petie1]

Nice tone,phrasing and style!...Jam and rock on!

[koshiaru]

anybody ever used a lace sensor silver?

[angrygecko]

man I wish I could improvise like that.

That was awesome.

[drfeelgoodlanzarote]

wauw, I love the sound of that guitar. What guitar is that?

[OZZYTS808]

is that a hiwatt cabinet down at the bottom left or line6 cab?

[riffguy]

Hiwatt.

[whammybarfreak]

thats a hiwatt cab at the bottom RIGHT,lol

[SHREDprotigy]

dude your r a very great guitarist

[g3legacy]

ooooooo nice tone man

[Dan23432343]

riffguy what do you think of slash?

[riffguy]

Slash isn't a technical player but he's got great feel and tone.

[Banxee13]

Skills and equipment of a Pro.

[jacktheguitarman]

can u sell me a pair of those pickups?

[krma1970]

Hey, that's Malcolm Young playing a solo for the first time caught on tape :-))

Great sound !

[LeftyLP80]

i think my neiighborhood hates me cuz i play so god damn loud

[humpde479]

its probably a bad combination of your crappy guitar skills your big ego and the fact that you think your a total badass cuz you play guitar

[trex257]

That there folks is what we call a grown up's guitar. Approach and play with caution.

[rafaeybuksh]

how do les pauls and ibanez differ in sound

[0mgh4xftw]

depends on the models.

[rafaeybuksh]

ibanez grx 40 and any les paul

[ChuckMullis]

Les Pauls have a fatter sound than the GRX 40. GRX's are a bit on the thin sounding side.

[ChuckMullis]

Which Ibanez?

[rafaeybuksh]

grx 40

[EndeChayer3]

Is that the Joe #1 bass line in the background?

If Fugazi is tasty,

then this is like baking Fugazi into a pie made of donuts.

I love it

[ChuckMullis]

No donuts for riffguy, it's steak and potato's !!!!

[MrChoc0bo]

O.M.G..... this is just so damn TASTY. I love your playing riffguy!

[mikescharvel]

What exactly is the Mod.? How can I get it done?

[caldrop]

i love the polished frets.clean guitar with a bad attitube

[bluesbreaking]

I know this is a dumb question seeing as how it's a 200 watt amp being played through at least 4 speakers, but I could resist asking since you said you modified the preamp. How loud is this amp at this setting?

[riffguy]

It wasn't too loud, just enough to feel it.

[junka22]

Dude that tone is so sexy, I just want to squeeze it!

[jross68052]

Can you send or sell me a schematic of the pre-amp high gain mod?

[jross68052]

Are you playing through all three heads? Tell me about the heads? What are they? Any mods? How are you feeding them?

Thanks in advance. Great playing dude

[riffguy]

I'm only running one amp here, it's a 1971 Marshall Major. The others are a 1983 50watt JCM800 and a 1991 100 watt JCM900. I've modifed them all with a high gain preamp circuit of my own design and I've installed effects loops in the Major & 800.

[ultimateguitar553]

Man Riffguy, i like the diversity in your playing

[DxRox22]

What did the mod do?

[tetrahemi09]

One of my favorite jams right here!

[pietdepsi]

Hi! You have to be the best guitar player on youtube!!!!! You can shred.... You can make things blues-y... AND you actually play with feeling!!!! =D

[adirl17]

it like she's singin' something very happy :P

[ibanezjuice]

your neighbours must hate you. lol

[MrSandman004]

Are you kidding? I'd love to listen to this guy next door.

although it would make me feel ashamed of my lil 30w marshall.

[Dipshityashit]

is this a backing track. is there a way to make or get this backing track or ones like this to solo to

[Dipshityashit]

is that a backing track in the background. Is there a way i can get that one or make a baking track like that to solo with.

[Kastralis]

theres software called

band in a box

its not free but *cough* limewire *cough* you didnt hear this from me ;)

[oompaloompaman5]

Damn your manerisms remind me of Yngwie, but you have a soul!

[linegeripptist]

lick my salty balls vai infected moron

[jela1190]

I`ve never heard a 335 style axe crying that humanlike... Don`t sell that riffbucker formula to anyone. You are 1 and only.

[alexledzepguy]

I never understood why you didn't go on to make millions.

[ibanezjuice]

nice. V.smooth. LOVE the stack. exelent!

[Captnuendo]

too much. way too much man.. you are my favorite guitarist. ever... ...........im so serious. 10 stars

[EddieVanHelen]

Did you get a new camera?

[FREDMERZRS]

Sick is all I can say.....I liked your earlier shred in YM's style but this is so much more.  Just goes to show more notes isn't always better.......

[lisannhodges67]

Ha your right I do agree.I want them stacks behind you so bad!ROCK ON!

-Tyler

[lonerocker08]

i heard some SRV in this video u some serious chops.

[Ibby1550]

Hey there, great chops! And beautiful tone too, tons of mojo and taste there. Mind trying to explain a mere mortal how insanely loud that Major is? I mean, 200 Watts through a freaking FULL STACK? Your neighbors must love you. :-P

I can't imagine Ritchie Blackmore needing to juice one of those up to 300 Watts... which he did.

[emachines007]

man thats goooooood playin bro!!

[DustOfFreedom]

ur on an road in south italy down somewhere... riding throu the nigh at the beach.. and hear this tone.. :)

[darrelldiamond]

lol the lonley hiwatt amp

[wildchildmetal]

Respect

[hendrixistheking]

whatcha using for reverb?

[riffguy]

I'm running an old Boss RV-1000 digital reverb rack unit through my mixer.

[dangerousecelt]

shut your guitar up, boring mate

[SoloBen247]

Haha do you think that trying to bring other musicians down will up you? either way riffguy is in my honest opinion the best guitarest ive ever heard even out of all the famous ones. so i suggest you go get a life
