[ukLeeham720]

Aarons drunk as shit and awkward

[maxtoy440]

is that pink floyd--coming back to life at 2:30 and 2:40?

[pivetlord13]

what was so funny when aronn said: Dimarzio!

[grungeboy31]

@pivetlord13 because he actually knew the answer without his tech answering for him XD

[DReidGuitars]

decepticon tatoo!!!!! 0:49

[JwarsE5]

Did anyone see what bens bass, middle and treble were? I paused it and still cant tell

[wesdude2448]

Ben sounds really drunk or hungover

[brakingben4lyfe]

I wonder what songs he uses the whammy pedal in..

[kpExperiment]

Nice stuff. Aaron can't explain his shit worth a shit though, haha.

[pivetlord13]

aaron may not be a shredder, but hes an amazing rythm player

[flawflaw1]

is that Sevendust - Black at 4:58 in the background? :)

[pivetlord13]

"what kind of pickups are in these?"

"Dimarzio!" lmao XD

[KennyUchiha08]

lol "My buddy Tony :D" xD

Haha first time I've seen Aaron being silly xD

BREAKING BENJAMIN FTW!!!

[XDarkF3arX]

Goddamn, his baritone is the coolest fucking guitar I've ever seen.

[jaredwhorton41]

not craaazyyy, i think iits just an inch looongerrr, righttt?

God he's shwasteddd

[wehurtthosewelove]

ahhhhh it hurts me to see ben bang that prs on the other one

[wohoSG]

aww i wanted to see the drum set!

[damus1cmahn]

@neuracer i dont recall mccarty models having 24 frets...all of the mccarty's have 22...i think thats a standard 24

[dbj0hn]

Man, I freakin' love Ben's Baritone. So damn nice looking!

[rocklee5x]

I like Wookie, he seems nice :D

[rocklee5x]

*ben pointing at his bitch* "hes over there tuning my guitar"

[oBIGxREDo]

3:53.... "ARE YOU READY?" certain people will know what I mean :D

[jmfrechay]

@neuracer mcarty's normally have a toggle switch pickup selector, prs custom 22's and 4's have a rotary switch.

[punk9999643]

Hahah, random stick at 3:58

[pivetlord13]

i thought aaron used emg!?

[th3m1ke]

Not only was this done very well and extensivley - but I enjoyed seeing Ben describe everything himself, not a tech (no offense Hoogie).

[H3lloSE]

@th3m1ke wookie man

[th3m1ke]

@H3lloSE Hoogie was/is Ben's tech - here: watch?v=ONhe-57mJGo

[krazykog]

@th3m1ke I completely agree. Couldn't have said it better.

[steveclarkeee222]

@th3m1ke lol hoogie?.. wookie

[vordlodemort]

@steveclarkeee222 Hoogie is Ben's guitar tech; Wookie is Aaron's.

[damus1cmahn]

i hear "Black" - Sevendust in the background in Aaron's segment xDDDDD

[jmfrechay]

thats not a mccarty 

[SuperPureawesomness]

I think arrons kinda tanked lol

[BenzIROCZ]

Why do people sometimes call them Breaking Benjamins, come on.

[caraudioman16]

where was this recorded? It looks like the Val Air Ballroom where i saw them in west des moines, Iowa

[GuitarEdge]

@caraudioman16 It was at Val Air. Good Eye!

[caraudioman16]

@GuitarEdge That is AWESOME!!! I live a couple miles from there!!! They are my favorite band!!!!

[ComfortablyNumbAgain]

wonder why Aaron left EMG pickups and went to dizaro

[Ralenissocold]

@ComfortablyNumbAgain maybe he prefers passive pups 

[ComfortablyNumbAgain]

@Ralenissocold true. but in the guitaredge issue with B.B. he had emgs on his guitar

[Ralenissocold]

@ComfortablyNumbAgain prolly changed them after the issue was released

[LuckyShotMations]

him playing Lights Out at the beginning is epic

[angelacampbell08]

drumstick fly at 3:54 ? hahahaha

[josh123mohikasurf]

whats that on bens middle finger

[josh123mohikasurf]

@josh123mohikasurf decepticon on bens middle finger o transformer

[josh123mohikasurf]

@josh123mohikasurf auto bots in the other

[abigail1403]

@josh123mohikasurf also he has autobot on his other hand middle finger

[YearsBecomeDays]

@josh123mohikasurf

transformers sign

[ryanevans00]

When Aaron says he's "never touched a tone knob" does he mean hes got it constantly down or constantly up?

[Ralenissocold]

@ryanevans00 probably constantly up.....if it was down the guitar would sound bad

[ComfortablyNumbAgain]

@ryanevans00 good point. up would be my guess

[rambo9791]

wow they hav lotsa guitars...they dont play with just 1 or 2

[Gridtrackers9Studio]

@rambo9791 they have to have a lot of guitars because they usually play 2-3 songs from each album, each album has a different tuning.

[Ralenissocold]

lmao i completely agree w/ aaron in the fact that tone nobs are completely useless. I'm with him when i say that i NEVER touch the tone nob lol

[MTLittleWolf]

what is the song at 0:09 ?

[brakingben4lyfe]

@MTLittleWolf Lights out

[caparison092]

@MTLittleWolf lights out

[lucskywalker16]

3:58 ...drummer gettin fancy :P

[bojosoto]

whats the song they are playing at the beginning? so riffy!

[ldblumhorst]

i love breaking benjamin but im kinda surprised at how little they know about their own gear...

[Ralenissocold]

@ldblumhorst haha i think the only mistake i found was ben mistaking his CE24 as a mccarty....unless its custom designed....but honestly aaron talked as if he didnt give a shit which i found hysterical

[cherrygurl4531]

Ben has a gold band on his finger now...

[cherrygurl4531]

Did you even read the comment, HE HAS A GOLD BAND ON HIS FINGER - FINGER MAN- GOLD BAND ON HIS DIGIT!

[WeAreJaneDoe]

@cherrygurl4531 He's not married though. I have the interview to prove it.

[samuxxn]

4:20 whats that song?

[drummedout]

@samuxxn

I Will Not Bow

[BrinkOfInsanityMusic]

Omg this video is awesome!

[damus1cmahn]

Hughes and Kettner Rotosphere

[18ALife]

he does and 1 question what was that pedal that he was talking about he used for so cold?

[brakingben4lyfe]

Is it just me or is Aaron a little buzzed? lol

[carlosbenb]

yes , he is

[brakingben4lyfe]

LOL at the drumstick flying at 4:00..this is awesome, I've been looking to get a setup like theirs but I didn't know what they had!

[coleby6661]

That was actually a CE24 or CU24 not a Mccarty model.

[whiterice003]

That was a dream come true watching this video!

[RisenInThreeDays]

exactly what i was thinking man
