I like this very much. Not only because I also own a DR-201, but because Armand really has got his act together. He rocks and doesn't bore, which is more than can be said of many so-called alternative rock bands of our time (Kings of Leon, e.g., but I could go on). I especially like the James-Chance-meets-David-Byrne-Funkiness of the song. Armand obviously was around in the early 80ies, and so was I.
Very original. Very cool. But...why the fucking Hiwatt equipment? Hope you put it to good use with other styles of music, because you're not exactly going for tone here, it seems...
@Aniva66 Mine's a '69 as well ... but it has the jimmy page type front end gain which is not typicle but is original to the amp - search for "vintage HIWATT SAP cranked thru THD Hotplate"
@skaboosh ok. What does 'SAP' mean or better is SAP a sort of modification,customization? what about old partridge transformers. some guys told me they were the best constructed,strong,reliable possible in the whole world of guitar and bass amplifier..is it true? hasn't anyone a link about pics of early hiwatt 201 circuit boards?
Rispondi a questo video... i get that other video named "vintage HIWATT SAP cranked thru THD Hotplate". very very fine! fine amp! i knew nothing about hiwatt 200watts! why do u take the jack cable out from the head at minute 0:54? does it serve to lower/reduce the guitar signal in entrance to the the amp? (sorry in advance my messely english)
I watched this video ages ago and had to find it again, this is different but I love it. I actually have nothing else to say, I dont know why, but I like this haha.
i like the fact that you are doing something different.... but i dont like the abuse of a great guitar and the waste of 2 amazing amplifiers to do it! get a squier strat and a line 6!
seriously though, i do applaud you for sticking your neck out and trying something different. got my vote!
I didn't realize that you were Armand from the french band SLOY. Stupid guys below must not even know that your first band was produced by Steve Albini.
Nevermind the "guitar fundamentalists" (stupid guys who forget that their lovely idols didn't wanna play the academic style and that's what they became so great and innovative). The sound is amazing.
Nice to see someone trying something different. There are no rules in music, all the negative idiots on here seem to think there are! Keep doing it dude!
I love the way people wig out just because "ol' so and so" has some expensive gear and isn't using it the way that they think it should be used. Come on... Did we really need another clip on the internet of some generic balls-rock being played through a cranked HIWATT? Who cares if it was kinda goofy sounding?!? "Dude, you totally should have played some Hendrix/Tull/Zeppelin/Cream, ect.," 'cause it's not like that shit's been done before a thousand times! I even love that stuff, but jeez..
come on guys you cant talk shit on this one....its unique. i can see how you can poke fun at it cuz youve seen nothin like it lol freakin awesome man...and thats comin from a relatively closed minded Who nut lol
Lol en voyant ça je me suis d'abord dit : "ben il s'embête pas, lui, il a la même gratte, le même ampli et les mêmes fringues qu'Armand Gonzalez, c'est pousser loin l'idolâtrie." Et puis après : "Euh attends, il a un peu la même tête et la même voix aussi." :D
Merci pour tous ces bons concerts, à toi, à Virginie et à Cyril.
