Monkey Lord has a DiMarzio Day! ;-)

[jaiwook63]

my pants would literally explode if I received a box with that much win contained in it.

[QUISOTE]

se echa de menos tu pelo largo :)

[arcademachines]

I like the Stylophone censorship.

[meekdoug]

YOU ARE A FRAUD !! I bought every single one of thos pups and attached them to my banjo only to have my mate Mental Baz describe my rendition of Rodrigos " Adagio in C flat minor as ,and I quote "Sucking big sweaty balls " .My lawyers will be in touch.!!

[EricClaptonFan24]

Still endorsed by DiMarzio? Think i'm going to put some in my ML1.

[deadbunny001]

That are ALOT of pickups, you know, the ml3 has to have 4 humbuckers or something, you know something ......RADICAL LOL

[londonkol]

My friend has a HSS Strat,a and he said to meput what pickups you want in it, after watching this vid, I knoe he was having Fred, Chopper, Pro Track, then the guitar got its new pickups, he hated the combination, and then went on a DiMarzio hate-spree, he's useless now.

[StreakingInJanuary]

No Super Distortion or X2N?

[cv41393]

ma cist è tutt strunz!!!

[Antrosyle]

gift me a cable plz !!

[bumsex4me]

Im not an expert on pickups but what dimarzio pickups would be good to start with? Im thinkin of mixing emg with dimarzio cause im cool

[travis5352]

some day i will sign a contract with them too! ^_^

[darkvoid86]

Have you tried the Chopper in the neck? Apparently it is the closest you will get to a sick Yngwie neck tone, humbucking and with decent output? Chopper in the neck = WIN for sweep picking?

[jpjdo1212]

you lucky bastard.... i wish i had all that dimarzio stuff... too bad im only 15

[EradicatedVoid]

Fuck yeah, a shelf of DiMarzio win would be awesome! I've been in love with their pickups since the first time I plugged my Ibanez XPT700 in, it came with stock D'Activators. Bet those setups really make your guitars sing!

[mellineitor]

Hi Rob .. could you help me please? I have a LTD FX 260 and I'm wondering what would be better: evolution for both neck and bridge or like you did, evolution for the bridge and humbucker from hell for the neck? please answer, thanks :)

[Vandude13]

I also want a DiMarzio Day, no just kidding. By the way awesome stuff Rob.

[GuitarmanIeuan]

:O Where do I sign? Hahahaha

[GeetarGuy101]

Rob, im thinking about getting new pickups and I'm thinking about getting a Mo'Joe and.. well, thats the thing i don't know! would like another humbucker, but I'm clueless really.. the mo joe is the shredding HB of the two, right? Anyway..what other humbucker would you choose to go with a Mo'Joe?

[Doddus]

SO JEALOUS OF YOUR NEON DIMARZIO CABLES THAT I HAD TO WRITE IN CAPITALS AND POSSIBLY GO BUY SOME NOW.

Youtube marketing works...

really really well..

[TheBloodofheros]

Chappers ..... a quick question how do you get signed to companys ????

PLEASE ANSWER !!! haha from josh =)

[25jonathan]

Im looking into putting new pups in my ibanez prestige. Its currently equipped with dimarzio ibz.

Any ideas for a new dimarzio pup? Im looking into a hot and well defined pup

[scorpia616]

@25jonathan super distortion bro.

[yobhsiFehT]

lol Neon is one of the VERY few things I'm glad survived the 80s:D

Hm, anyway, now that I'm a subscriber, I keep stumbling on more and more videos of yours that make me A.) exceedingly jealous of you, B.) want to meet you and hang out, and C.) want to remind you (in case you've had any spare time to forget;)) how blessed you are:)

You're a great player, seem like a great guy, and I wish you all the best in your various endeavors!

[madews]

Ur a lucky man

[KillModzzor]

Daaamn, DiMarzio hooked you up!

[teezer123]

jesus if i got that box full id shit myself :O

[RAIDERZ52]

Dude, seriously...........as good as you are and all of the great toys you have.......and you have Ruby Tubes? Come on, the monkey can not be lord with out real tubes can he?

[TallonIV776V]

I want an endoresment deal with Dimarzio!

[ToddHakes]

I wish we could see the FX in action again... It's been a while since you've made anything showcasing it.

[MansightJoker]

Looks like Christmas came early Chappers!!! :D

[tragictravisty]

the humbucker from hell is the best pickup i've ever played

[gmbob22]

evo and air norton for the win

[XAlphaZEROX]

@gmbob22 my all time favorite combination, evo in the bridge and norton S in the neck! C:

[TheFrostyDealer]

What would be better......I'm getting a prs se and changin' the pickups which would be better :mo'joe in the bridge or Fred with a joe satch paf........or seymour duncan hotrodded set( JB & Jazz)....I thought about the Vai pickups( breed & evo) but think that that would be a little too much. Anyways thanks.

[ruffles272]

why would you say you're "going to get" a prs se and then change the pickups. if you go in with that mindset then you won't be able to hear the true sound of the pickups. for all you know, they're the best sounding pickups ever, but you just didn't give them a try

[8x26x08]

what kind of picks do you use?

[waax3]

awesome:D.. ilove chappers and i love dimarzio <3

[Ibik]

marry me please

[evhguitarstv43608]

how expensive was all of this?

[TheDSparky]

Chappers, How are those Dimarzio cables? How do they compare to Monster or Planet Waves? I'm thinking of getting some.

Sparky.

[8x26x08]

@TheDSparky they're quality and inexpensive, but there is a tad more interference with the signal with them comared to the onesyou mentioned, especially monster because monster is a specialty cable brand. thats why they're so costy

[Hogweedmusic]

Will there be Dimarzio pickups on the next few guitars from Chapman guitars then?? or??

[anc13ntr4ng1]

im truly truly jealous of all the goods on the table. =P cheers chappers!

[sonydragonmaker]

any suggestions for a bridge and neck humbucker for a ibanez? i play mostly rock, sometimes metal or blues

[geicowithdagheko1]

Which bridge pickup do you like the best and why? (if you don't mind my asking)

[skycaptain141]

what are u gonna do with the emgs

[jonnyj0987654321]

How big who's hands are? XD

[XAlphaZEROX]

Omigoodness. How did you get signed by DiMarzio?! Thats crazy, I like your band name by the way.

[HDWMusic]

tiny terror or marshall haze?

[22Rocker22]

haze :)

[HDWMusic]

cheers

[bassist13]

Im thinking about getting a D activator, anyone have some input on them for a metal sound?

[chriscoooley]

from looking at your guitar, it looks like it would sound good in the schecter. d sonic would also be looking at if you want really huge, tight chunk

[gman1280]

@bassist13 Played the ibanez xiphos and iceman with them preinstalled, amazing, I have a SD Blackout in my ibanez RG, and these can hang with the SD easily - Chris Broderick uses them OVER Bareknuckles - nuff said

[1jack369]

ill buy your emg's from your 401-sm

[drakester115]

can u demo those pickups? please

[satch60]

I have Monkey Lord envy, it must be mint being u lol....

[66Titan66]

Getting a Dimarzio Crunch Lab myself soon, Dimarzio are the best pickups for versatility hands down.

[nomis69]

lord of the monkey when are the monkey fest tickets going to be available so i can purchase 1 or 20???

[robostomo1]

u lucky bastard

[lordbibaldi]

DiMarzio FTW! I had a Super Distortion in the bridge of my Ibanez before. Hard to think of a pickup with so much chugg that still retains clarity.

[robibm2003]

+1 on that, dude. The Super Distortion sounds fucking sweet!

[angrygoldfish]

Always a pleasure to see how your life is win and my life is fail.

=[

hehe

[FinalFight323]

Fucking sweet mate, looking to get a Tone Zone put in the bridge of my Explorer soonish.

[Rhaabjorn]

tone zone in mahogany is win, i love tone zone

[stratdude83]

what an awesome gig...u just get free guitar shit in the mail all the time...life is good

[wrokjon]

man how do you get endorsed by dimarzio

[sweeznit]

I would loveeeee one of those cables. My cat bit mine to bits sadly. Very unfortunate :(

[NikitasTsaousis]

are dimarzio cables good???

[kwaka69]

Nice box of win! but are you not worried about losing the unique sound of the ML1? I know the ML1 was created for modding but for it to turn up sounding as good as it does with the stock pickups is a bonus (a bit like the olp mm1 & 4 did) . I think you might miss the original sound!

[WedlakeMusic]

Hoping to get a Tone Zone and Air Norton for my Ibanez Rg2550z

[mjwoodworth]

can i have a bridge humbucker please? anyone you perhaps dont want...?

mines jsut fell into my guitar :'(

(hopes to god chappers has a case of the love bug and reads only my comment)

haha....i'm so jealous of you man! signed with d'marzio, fuck showing if the 80's are back, that should show you that you are big mate!

[ronjcharity]

I have Evos and a blue velvet in my 1570...great pickups.

[jebachina]

lucky bastard !!!

I want that cables too !

:D:D:D

hahahah

enjoy mate !!!

[jswin334]

Hooray, if I were to pick one sponsor it would be Dimarzio. Congratulations mate!

[B2Rockin]

You're losing the emgs?!!! can I have the old bridge pup? haha, damn i love when you jam on the 401 with emgs...

[GiGaMoG]

That shelf is full of win :D

[schecterGman]

rob rob rob...

can you send me the pickups you dont like???

haha.

just trying to be lamely funny.

good to see somebody living his dream. \m/

[BraveCaveDave]

a contract with dimarzio, amazing :D

[guitarinsteve]

I've got to get those cables - they look faire sturdy!

[LeJo82]

Nice looking shelve huh ! Some before and after videos with the changed pickups would be very much appreciated indeed ! Rock on old chap.

[nicoooh]

Great Stuff, you + DiMarzio = WIN!

Finally I will see some good demos of the Fred, Mo'Joe and the Humbucker from Hell. I will, right?

[prydogga]

I hope I see you in the DiMarzio site with a pic of you rockin out soon! Top stuff Rob!

[PYROSF]

I'm thinking of getting a dimarzio tone zone for my squier strat I'm fixing up and refinishing. What does f spaced mean?? Is it like the two coils on the humbucker are separated a little?

[nicoooh]

It means that the space between the polepieces is a little bigger to match wider string spacing found on Fender and FloydRose guitars (hence the F). To my knowledge, except for Les Pauls, I would always take F-Spaced for Bridge Humbuckers.

[PYROSF]

@nicoooh so i should get an f spaced tone zone?

[nicoooh]

Yes, for a Squier you should definetely get the F-Spaced version. Note that Rob's Bridge Humbuckers are all F-Spaced in the Video (for a Strat-Type guitar)

[RomanianDanIrukandji]

Whoa, pickups of win!! Jealous!!

[TimJMorrison]

I misread your ibanez tube screamer box as:

"The Creamer"

[hiitsmcjosh]

Hey Rob, you spelled "bear" wrong at 1:15.

[JMcDonnell91]

a serious array of win right there, what id give to be in your shoes rob!

[aligatorsandwitch72]

dear god when i watched this video i cried a little bit because of how beautiful it was..... Please tell me they sent it to you for free because your really awesome.

[veers0r]

Please make some "before and after" videos when you change the pickups. That would be awesome! ;)

[tstj123]

So you can't use Planet Waves Stuff anymore?

[Al4Projects]

Epic Duo will be amazingly EPIC!!!

[weirdotis]

Chappers, did you know Ruby tubes are nothing more than matched Chinese tubes? You need to check out JJ or Winged C. But you are one lucky, lucky man :)

[MiKill93]

Whoa thats better than Christmas Day

[MarekCartoonJay]

Hey, what do u think about EVO2 for a bridge of a fender strat? for some rock/prog/metal, yet funk...ty ML ...and hope u will have a lot of fun with all those DiMarzios!!!:D

[EricMaldonadoMusic]

So Cool!! I've been with DiMarzio for almost a year now and I am so happy to be apart of there company. And to be amongst players like Vai, Satch, EJ and now You!

[r0kas]

0:32 dr. hibert lough (from simpsons)

[B3nScott777]

You should definitely check out the ToneZone dude!

That is one quality pick up from DImarzio.

[suckit69er]

i cant belive it! well done m8

best pickups ever i bet your so chuffed!

[Robbiedbee]

No Super Distortion? That's the winnest pickup of the lot.

[V3ryM3tal]

S.O.B.

Neon cables? Yes.

[TheAkaviri]

you are one lucky son of a

[B3nScott777]

Don't mean to sound pedantic but the last pickup is pronounced P.A.F :P All the letters said seperately.

[cderycke]

When you meeting Paul Gilbert dude?? And can I come too? :)

Dimarzio broughteth the WIN!!!

[lizrainsberrymusic]

Woah congrats for the signage! And beaut of pickups (:

[xeniousAR]

man oh man I wants to put some Area '67's into an ML1 with an EJ custom bridge pickup.

[theboywhocantollie]

how did he sign a deal with them is he sponsered? how!!!!

[SwampAshSpecial]

you can have a deal with more than one company!

[theboywhocantollie]

how did he get the deal???

[SwampAshSpecial]

he aksed Dimarzio and they said yes :p

[Hailstonedpikachu]

damn i wanna know who u r meeting who u have never met before

[lpunknown]

from the big hands thing im guessing Paul Gilbert...

but who knows

[dwg316]

well done da chappers!!!!

[recall34]

gimme your cables

[MrStevelovesguitars]

your one lucky bastard rob, you make me gelious!

[marconiiii]

insane *0*

[GeetarGuy101]

I wanna be a chappers when I grow up :|

[paddypb]

i hate to insult you Chappers, but my mum has that fleece...

[kakashihatake1321]

does this mean know more planet waves ?

[livemit]

hey mate good to see you have got a contract with dimarzio. i was just wondering if you could recommend me some dimarzio single coils. i have an i banez guitar with humbucker, single coil single coil pickups( just like the ML1) and i have just put a Dimarzio super distortion in the bridge. im looking for two single coils. i mainly play hard rock/ metal/ blues but do go into jazz etc. any recommendations would be fantastic

cheers

tim bloomer

[Rawrb1063]

Do you buy this or get it sponsored? :D

[mhskeide]

oh lord!

ENVYYYYYYYYYY

pleeease do a review of the chopper, I`m planning on installing a chopper or Tone Zone S in my strat :)

[Freakmonday]

give!!!

[Blade686]

OK now I'm officially 100% jealous.

[Nicces1]

oh man you must be the happiest man in the world!

[bizzle1783]

well done rob you're living the dream mate

[jakeblandjk47]

Mr C, you have no idea how jelous i am of you... why does being a shredmonkey have to be so expensive for us non signees :( hehe

[filipdinev1]

you're the happiest man in the world...

[kareemb0]

CHAPPERS!

Humbucker From Hell + Evolution is the best combo ever! I have that same combo too. Versatilitaye!

[Nameless164]

Coolest cables in the world :D

[ems81ar]

Rob! I think you can have a better "combo" with chopper - cruiser - mo´ joe and pro track - fast track - fred. The fast track I splits great but doesn´t sound so great in the neck (at least for me!) - Sorry for my crapy english :-)

[ems81ar]

I want a contract with dimarzio!!! hahaha! I love thier pickups! I have a few and love them! (paf pro, tone zone, steve´s special, d-activator, cruiser and chopper!!! I love them all!!!)

[RevilationGuitar91]

lol nice :P

[najtrows]

ive never tried a dimarzio to be honest!

but they seem nice! and you seem satisfied.

i wish you well in the lands of Dimarzio!

[slicer789]

So, who of the dimarzio users are you gonna meet chappers? You'd better post a video of the win if you do :)

and what is that beaut of a wooden amp behind you at roughly 1:50

[RobChappers]

@slicer789 I have already met Joe & Yngwie ;-) That amp is a Coolidge Outlander - It was custom made for me ;-)

[slicer789]

nice man! must be great to meet your idols :-) What sound does that Coolidge give?

[HighZombiesRule]

Ok, ok, you probably were expecting this, but is Yngwie mean? :)

[RobChappers]

No he is a nice guy ;-)

[HighZombiesRule]

Ha ha, cool. Guess you can't trust rumors. Cheers on your box of win!

[Lordgout]

Dude thats freaking sick! Have you checked the Virtual PAF? I got a pacifica with that in the bridge its a nice pickup, very well balanced!

[AdamLeeGuitarist]

Wow, that's amazing! A shelf of some of the nicest pickups in the world! :-) I'm looking for a new pair of humbuckers . . . was going to try some Bare Knuckles, but I must admit, I already have a set of DiMarzios (Fred and Paf Pro) in one of my guitars, and they rock! Powerful, yet wonderfully transparent at the same time. Go Chappers! Congrats on your signing with these guys!

By the time you're done with it, you'll have a SML-1 (Super ML-1). Maybe choose a different name . . . :-)

[glassprisoner417]

i went through different pickup companies until i settled with dimarzio....seymour duncan, EMG, and Bareknuckle just didn't cut it...dimarzio all the way

[HighZombiesRule]

Interesting, which Bareknuckles did you try?

[glassprisoner417]

i had a warpig that i pulled out of my buddy's caparison that i used for a few gigs and it just didn't feel right...and i was looking for a cleaner john petrucci sound, so i went with the d sonic

[HighZombiesRule]

Umm, no wonder? Well, if you're trying to go for a John Petrucci kind of sound, I'd recommend DiMarzio anyways, seeing as that's what he uses. Though I will say that maybe a ceramic pickup with that much output wasn't fair to compare. -.-'

I do want to try the new D Activator X and the new Liquifire pickup though. :)

[glassprisoner417]

the D activator X is great and i'm a little dissappointed with the liquifire, the air norton is more for me

[HighZombiesRule]

Really? Because I was thinking of using a Liquifire for a smooth lead tone paired with high gain amps, being an A5, and medium sort of output. What was the dissappointment? Cannots waits to try DAX.

[glassprisoner417]

the liquifire felt very single coily to me, i dunno i'll give it another shot and maybe i can give a better recommendation, but the D-Activator X is in my jackson rhoads, and it's very gained out, very midsy

[HighZombiesRule]

:D That's good news.

[ngshredtolive]

this video is full of the dogs pants.

yes, the dogs pants.

[bigrock007]

wow a CHAPPER pickup

[guitarlad24]

congrats!

[wickedexp]

Demo the pickups if you can. I'm curious of their sound. I own a X2N & I love it for the serious heavy stuff or if I wanna sound like Symphony X, but it isn't as flexible as other pickups, though not sure which of the others is the one I want.

[wackyzachy731]

congrads dude!! very excited to here what the monkeylord group has in store for all of us! those are some nice pick ups!! have fun playing with em.

[Sjusovaren]

Fucking hell, that's awesome! Massive envy mate... Have you tried the Steve Morse set? I have 'em in a really old Ibanez and it sounds amazing plugged in, even though it's completely dead acoustically!

[theblackpiglet]

lmao...lots of dimarzio-age going on there..I have an evo set in my ibby, love them :-)

[GibsonManPaulPlaya]

Monkey Lord has become a advert/endorsement whore. Chappers, what's up with all the gear? I love reviews as much as the next bloke but I go to other channels for that mate! I subscribed to your bit and pieces for the awesome playing and rippage. I suppose you've succumbed to the monetary embellishment as opposed to the CHORD embellishment. Get a little notoriety and it goes strait to your head mate. So sad you have sold out old man......

Toodle pip Old Bean....... I'm un-subing!

[D35J4RD1N5]

Quick fact check for you, What does Selling out entail?

the fact that he's making money from endorsements now that he's made a form of notoriety doesn't mean he's become any less of a musician or a guitarist, because, his youtube page, has been and probably always will be, just where he posts random shit that he's been doing and what's been going on in his life, because he's a guitarist, this includes awesome playing, but because he's also trying to make money, it'll also involve money-making.

[RobChappers]

@GibsonManPaulPlaya I don't make any money from any of my endorsements. Thanks for your comment ;-)

[LesPaulRockerProduct]

which you you recommend

dimarzio or seymour duncan

strat or prs

[JerkyChid]

Aww Chappers isn't gonna have good tone anymore... jk, good for you man

[dadudeguy2]

I have never been more Jealous in my entire life. Have fun with those dimarzios rob!

[thork86]

1:15 ftw!

[TheGamingGuitarist]

I have a Cliplock strap like the one you have on your Strat. I love it! It's very comfortable and will never come off your guitar no matter how crazy you play with it!

[Wyvernx]

I think my brain melted.

[RiffinGriffin]

DiMazios rock man but i didnt see the holy grail of pickups witch is the tone zone! i recomend you tell them to send you one for the brige man!

[TheGamingGuitarist]

Don't forget about the Super Distortion. I want one so bad but I already know it's going to sound amazing when I have it installed!

[guitarbassdrums]

your gonna meet paul gilbert?! :O

[HighZombiesRule]

What happened to Bareknuckle pu's?

[mean0machine0]

now you have to make a vid of you installing them XD

[MarkBrim]

DUDE! congrats on the contract man. Dimarzio are impressive, and i want some.

[brokensoul70]

I see you have a DiMarzio Evolution there, that is one damn good pickup.

[illusionfreak]

Slap em' in mate! Lets hear those bad boys in action!

[bernhardtsen74]

I have had Dimarzios on my rg350dx which sounded pretty badass!

I had Paf pro in neck and Mo´ Joe in bridge!

I now use them in my old ltd kh202!

[tango616]

how do you just get signed with all these companies so fast dude? your like signing with a new one every couple months!, do you just send like 40 emails to each company?! thanks for the help.
