[mclvstac]

faded line is such a good song.. the continuous double pedal and siren towards the end makes my mouth water

[drumbum4628]

[ScrewUthing]

[james6128402]

"THE BLBLBBLBLELABLBLBLLLL RIFF..."

[hunterW1134]

That riff from the faded line is insane. I can play it, but I don't think I'll ever understand how he can play that chorus riff..

[sukablianah2]

Did anyone get how EXACTLY he plays bulublulululu-riff? gtp versions sound nottoo accurate...

[DeanxPure]

@IamAnoob44 no reason to mug me? I haven't been playing a guitar very long, just wanna know how to do it...

[DeanxPure]

Anyone knows what kind of effects Mark uses? I mean, i've been thinking "how the hell can he bend the 6th string and make it sound like the 1st?"

[owenw72]

@DeanxPure if your talkin about the thing he does when he's messin about with the guitar then it's not an effect, he's just doing a pinch harmonic

[IamAnoob44]

@DeanxPure LOL ARE YOU TROLLING? IT'S CALLED A PINCH HARMONIC MY FRIEND.

[MetalSk8Shred]

Wow, I'm the 99,999th viewer!

[Valde320]

the "lblbllobloblb"riff

[missanajade]

lol i love this. I want his babies!!

[staybrutal216]

aw fuck i jizzed all over my fuckin screen

[brooklynstudio]

the blalalelalela riff HAHAHA

[fisttofaceband]

this is the faded line...well, the verse to the faded line, its not the first riff, its the verse riff...the bledubledebleh riff gotta love mark

[jamjar1984]

The guitar is a jackson swee tone archtop.

[anthony0803]

Actualy the mark 4 came out in 94 so it was impossible to be on and justice for all. All rhythm tracks were laid with a mark 2 c+ and quads were used live.

[metalheadblues]

did mesa name the mark series after Mark Morton?I've always wondered this

chunky as hell

[Bollehamsteren]

@metalheadblues Uhm, the first Mark amp came out long before LoG even knew eachother, so... No.

[metalheadblues]

@Bollehamsteren yep finally did a check on google

good stuff non the less

[allenhalligan]

@metalheadblues no, Mesa-Boogie Mark IV's have been around for a long time, they were used by Metallica on the record And Justice For All...

[nolfavrellcalamakta]

@allenhalligan sorry but metallica used Mesa Markiic+ and Mesa Quad Preamps on justice

[allenhalligan]

@nolfavrellcalamakta you DO know that the ii2C+ and the Quad made the Mark IV right? thats what created the Mark IV was combining those 2, i appreciate the help, but i dont need it, i know my shit

[nolfavrellcalamakta]

@allenhalligan "lol" is all i have to say

[allenhalligan]

@nolfavrellcalamakta if you knew how mesa boogie came up with the Mark IV then you would know that those two components were crucial in making the Mark IV what it is, so laugh if you want to, it's good for you

[akhtab94]

what guitar is that? i thought he uses Jacksons?

[schecterguitar08]

@akhtab94 its a framus

[guitarphillip]

@akhtab94

It is a Jackson Swee-tone with an SD invader in the bridge and a SD jazz in the neck

[jrfireboy86]

"the blablablablablabla riff" lmao i love it

[fairlystupidjello]

I feel so retarded when it comes to guitar equpiment like that I'm just used to an amp and a few pedals lol

[ShredGeo11]

he is so good at pinch harmonics

[4everRock666]

whats marks guitar here?

[StephanSteijger]

There it is!

[hottaco11]

Mark looks like a heavy metal version of Jesus.

[kwiatekzgniezna]

shred, please ?

[ChannelxxAUSTRIAxx01]

Hell yeah i cought a guitar pick of Mark yesterday on the concert at Munich!! Fuckin awesome!!

[RobArtize]

Nice! I caught one on the concert in stockolm on the 5th of mars!

[ChannelxxAUSTRIAxx01]

@RobArtize

Awesome, i just hold it in my hand.

[slayer47]

@RobArtize  Me too! Han kasta det i bröstet på mig hah

[novitec360]

WTF?! someone mind explaining to me......i thought you just plug your guitar into one amp head, what with the splitting here then splitting again and all that......?

[makingbeaners]

more power

[novitec360]

could you explain exactly what's happening though bra?

[superjesus117]

@novitec360

He splits his signal so he can run two heads at once, so if one fails (which can easily happen, and can ruin a show) the other is still going strong

He goes in through the wireless, splits the signal into a gate, which eliminates any nasty hissing, into the heads, then in the loops of each head he runs a compressor which just helps his tone get to where he likes it.

Its actually extremely simple XD

[killeroforce]

Mesa Boogie are Nice

[secondfish]

Mark Morton has a signature guitar, the Jackson Dominion.

[sthrnynky7]

why the fake cabs?

[curtspolyphonic]

looks better.

[sthrnynky7]

Makes sense. Just curious.

[curtspolyphonic]

yea, if you have a huge stage space to fill up then it just kind of goes with the image of bigger is better. it would look strange with such a big band like lamb of god playing big stages with just two cabs lol.

[sthrnynky7]

yea i see what your saying. i guess its kinda like zakk wylde's wall of doom. just presents a more ominous look.

[Bobbajoowop]

Dude, everybody, it's a Jackson Sweetone.

[LukeBodom]

@Bobbajoowop im glad someone knows what it really is lol.

i love it.

im saving up the $4000 to get the Custom Shop to build me one with a few minor changes.

[iceboomerang]

laguna guitar???

[cradie1]

fuck off quierodoritos! i see mark morton with a signature model and dont see you with shit bitc so pinch that harmonic bitch, you suck anyway ass hole

[xXlopoXx]

pinch harmonics arents hard at all haha especially when you use a thick ass pick like mark's... dont get me wrong though, i love mark =p

[BigD1315666]

what kind of guitar does he have

[TehNazz]

signature model fuckface

[lguukietar]

nope its a normal jacksom i think hes only just had a sig model

[TehNazz]

yeah thats a normal jackson in this video but he has a sig model.....

fuckface

[weemankyle]

the blelelalalla... riff. XD

[xXlopoXx]

wat song was he playing??????

[alexguerreiro15]

the faded line

[manchiscap]

Hes looks reminds me of Andreas from Sepultura

[crazay99]

id give anything to have pinch harmonics as awesome as that

[MarcusFenixtheMan]

would you practice 8 hours a day for the rest of your life?

[crazay99]

well... i did say ANYTHING but that might be too much lol

[blayze101]

lol it dosn't take 8 hours a fucking day for the rest of your life to produce pinch harmonics like that.

They're not that hard you know

[MarcusFenixtheMan]

did i say it did faggot? i said "would you practice 8 hours a day for the rest of your life" (playing off the fact that he said he'd do "anything") not "the single ONLY way you can get pinch harmonics like that is to practice 8 hours a day for the rest of you life"

[blayze101]

you're a moron arent you, read what he said, then what you said, then think how one would interpret it. im guessing you're probably american.

[MarcusFenixtheMan]

yes i get that you misinterpreted what i said but that's because you're retarded not because im american

[blayze101]

Fair enough, i was in a fucked mood at the time, so i apologize for bringing up the american thing, that was uncalled for.

Have a nice day dude.

[quierodoritos]

pinch harmonics aren't hard at all

[lionslicer9999]

mark 4 mesa heads :P

rare

[pooker5231]

willie uses a framus

[caboose1289]

Man those Mesa Mark IV's are just incredible, super great tone and insane versatility.

[gosharksgo1414]

mark duane morton = god and jesus combined

[rabbitspliff]

love your enthusiasm, but i think god is phil anselmo, because i fell asleep listening to Jail, of Down's album NOLA, and he came to me and told me to grow a pair. sure phils more of a dickhead but he's had a harder life lol. as for mark [jesus], he's probs my fave guitarist. total legend. he knows how to add soul to his parts, as opposed to willie's more technical style. as a general rule i say of fast, heavy and bluesy you can only play 2 at a time max. mark can do all 3. that is skill.

[tobiwankenobi2109]

Right...most of it....except: God has a red beard and calls himself Dimebag Darrel; )

[BigD1315666]

@tobiwankenobi2109 nawwwwww id say morton is god over dimebag

[RostamTheGreat]

now i know were he got that look from exactly like jesus!

[gosharksgo1414]

the faded line...nuff said

[GodaimeG]

LOL the blablplbleblapleble riff haha!

[pooker5231]

i met mark and hes using a JACKSON SWEE-TONE

[caboose1289]

Whoops sorry about that Willie was playing a Framus Camarillo not a Diablo.

[swiftninja23]

noo they both play frames guitars. thats the guitar in this vid

[caboose1289]

No, Willie played a Framus Diablo and Mark played a Jackson Swee-Tone.

[guitarguru48]

no buddy nice try, marks playing a jackson

[8stringerr]

that there is not a jackson

[NYCTAT]

your right, its a framus

[torsnn]

No really, the one he's playing there is a custom model of Jackson he made. Looks like a Framus tho.

THe framus models mark played looked more like a telecaster and somekind of LP/PRS. But that one there is a Jackson Custom Swee-Tone.

[Gilbertdos89]

no that is a jackson swee tone archtop

its the old style logo

[8stringerr]

yeah? back it up.

[LukeBodom]

yes it is. everyone thinks it was a framus diablo custom. but its a jackson swee tone. rare guitars. you can alson see the J on the headstock and the headstock also looks like his current jackson dominions headstocks. its a jackson swee tone people. look it up.

[tnaolly13]

Jesus(mark morton)

[joshwakbak3]

Yeh he is playing a jackson swee tone :) i don't think they make them anymore though man.

[Hallman88]

does anyone know what jackson mark is playing in this video? im pretty sure it was a one of a kind jackson custom shop.

[syxxsyxxsyxx]

Its not a jackson. He was playing Framus back then. He is using Jacksons as of Late.

[Hallman88]

mark never played framus. willie is the only one who played framus. mark has always played jacksons. on this tour he played a RR jackson and this jackson swee tone. i just got the killadelphia DVD today and he plays jackson.

[syxxsyxxsyxx]

Yes he did mate, and the guitar has in this video is a Framus. He used 2 framus'. Framus Renegade Pro (With neck pickup removed), Framus Panthera. Only now he uses Jackson since they did a Signature Model for him.

[Hallman88]

watch the willie adler sound check. you will see that willie says that both guitars you just described are what he plays and r his. if you dont believe me look at the head stock on marks guitar now and then. it is the same as his dominion model and has a J on the top of it for jackson. ask joshwakbak3 if u dont believe me.

[GRYNreaper001]

its a jackson. willie played framus. its a jackson jazz model that wasnt around for too long

[xshold]

Love u mark <3

[Armyy33]

ya i know

[Armyy33]

i have his signature in red XD

[esb48975]

nice, that ones sexy

[joshdrockss]

[borednessislife]

[FreakKitchen94]

0:51 XD hahahahahahaha XD

[Kingsammich2]

He is my fucking idol. Mark is the man.

[DaveJiV]

@Kingsammich2 i have a guitar pick of his signed from the first ever show in Portugal :D

[littledorkdoll11]

ahh such a good guitar player!!!

[tehstreetlight]

Haha "The rest of them are fake."

[KillingYouForMe]

At the end his voice reminds me of Herbert from Family Guy...lol

But seriously thats a fucking heavy tone he's got there, it almost makes it sound like he's tuned down a hellova lot, but he never goes below half step

[guitarman104]

hes always in dropped d i thought what songs does he tune down for

[KillingYouForMe]

Mostly yeah, but theres a few songs on Wrath that are in D flat

[childgod18]

can anyone please tell me how i can tune down to d without making my string wabblee???

[bleedingfly]

Buy thicker strings. Dimebag signature DR strings are good for it. Thick bottom light top. \m/_

[Rocket1771]

raise your action

[guitarman104]

realy what ones

[XxSuPaMaNxX101]

ur right always drop d

[XxD1sturbedxX]

does any1 know wat amp he uses!?

[a7xmetalhead16]

mesa boogie mark IV, he said it in the video....

[braindrillskater69]

he says in the video, mesa boogie mark 4

[91804893]

what kind of amp use mark?

[manchiscap]

Mesa Boogie Mark IV

[91804893]

WHAT KIND OF PEDAL USE MARK MORTON?

[longlivepantera]

he doesnt use pedals, its amp distortion.

[syxxsyxxsyxx]

He Uses a MXR GT-OD for Boost on Solos. Otherwise its just Mesa MKIV Distortion.

[diabeticmonkey]

The guitar in the video is a jackson swee-tone. They are custom order only.

[derdara152]

they had standards back in 2001-2005

then they discontinued the guitar

[69Acolyte69]

What is the name of that guitar mark has? Its the same one as in the laid to rest video and isnt his signature dominion. Iv been trying to find it for months but i cant!

anybody help me out?

[41odyssey]

ive always wanted one of them house of shock and horror shirts that mark always wears, just dont know were the fuck to find one.

[viktorsjogren]

the "bludublububludublubua"-riff

[lightyellowcarrot]

Mark Morton, the best guitarist ever!

[juggalo57]

lol, that riff is a bitch to play sometimes :P

[dl1892]

but its so sick haha

[king666nothing]

Mark Morton, didn't your mother tell you not to play not warmed up??? It's bad for you.

[doctorrigby]

Question, sorry if this is dumb, why does Mark split his guitar into 2 heads?

[espltd12]

to create different harmonic dynamics one may be set more trebly while one is set more bassy to create a more dynamic tone. Or more volume going through the speakers.

[bboren]

just to give him 'his' tone. i believe one mark IV head has 6L6 tubes and the other has el34's, i think thats right.

[tripletsboy]

what guitar is he useing in this vid is it one if the framus guitars he used to use if so whats it called?

[skullchick88]

I think it´s a Jackson Sweetone (chambered body) - but they don´t produce it anymore...

[tripletsboy]

oh bummer ill have to look on ebay do u know if its anygood?

[skullchick88]

You can try to get the Signature Mark Morton Jackson it´s similiar soundwise (also chambered body) - but the body is different (IMO)

[Zstillwagon]

i hate when people use fake cabs. he should use the all

[Jakethysnake93]

YES!

[Altered6Chicken]

and go completely deaf? haha

[WRannet]

you look manlier when you have a huge stack behind you

[XFunkWizardX]

Seeing LAMB OF GOD in less than 24 hours!!!!!! Defenders of the faith tour here we come.

[srcdisaster]

[awesomenessness1792]

morton's rig is fuckin' awesome, i love seymour duncans and mesa boogies.

[MarkArandjus]
