I found out over the past few years that I tend to like some pickups more than others. I find that some suit certain styles better than others, so I usually end up switching out pickups when I think it will benefit my sound for what I feel that particular guitar is best at. The sound difference depends on the exact guitar. Each has it's own character. You can connect the POD to an amp...commonly by just running the 1/4" output to the clean channel of an amp and letting 'er rip!
Strumming lesson you say? Their recordings have all kinds of strumming patterns from what I can tell...any songs specifically I could use for an example? I've got a specific pattern that I usually use, for better or for worse, but I doubt there's much interest in what I'm doing by habit.
@tee5150II like I am having problems keeping up with the drum beats. I am used to the usual ramones, mifits style. By the way I used american jesus for an analysis in English class. Best grade I ever got. Bad religion songs really advanced by vocabulary
Man, I used to play the PISS out of some Misfits songs like 6-7 years ago. You don't even wanna know.. As far as playing with the drums...I used to just strum with the snare to get a feel for the timing on the chords(still do when I'm learning a song) and then using the muscle memory for that pace, I just strum twice as fast, and faster, to match pace with the recorded guitars. Start slow and be on time, then get progressively faster. Remember, speed is a product of accuracy!
Hey..thanks for the vid. I had my doubts about the Pod x3, but this video probably got Line 6 another customer. And same goes for Edwards, if I can rack up the dough.
And your covers - awesome as always. I don't subscribe to many people, but I am constantly waiting for new videos from you. Although: the fisheye thing kinda messes with my head a bit when I try to learn from your videos.
Thanks man, that's all really awesome to hear. I'm trying to get back in the groove of doing a couple songs a month at least, hopefully sooner than later. I use the fisheye lens for two reasons, 1) I like to show the whole scene as far as not having a random torso playing guitar in the frame the whole time, and 2) it was expensive so I need to justify buying it. I may switch to a different camera soon, or I can set up my camera with a different lens. Stay tuned..
Brilliant video tee! Thanks and thanks for all the other vids you do! They really help!
The quality of your videos are superb!

I'm 90% sure it's the Vintage 59 Classic Alnico V.
I know the bridge is the Crunchy PAT...neck is the V'59 if my memory serves me right.
