Sound travels at different speeds depending on the medium it travels through. Different woods have a different density and a different resonant frequency. To say wood has no effect or does not matter is a ludicrous argument. Now what sounds best is subjective. An acoustically resonant object will have its own resonance frequency and also will possess harmonics at which it will more readily vibrate thus amplifying these. So there are differences in tone. Different Strings & pups also change tone.
hey phil ! we get it ...you play classic rock....but a review without the settings of the amp on high gain is not a decent review at all .that gibson kicks ass though
You guys are So Immature. Learn the truth about things. Look, take the pickps out, plug the guitar in, see if you van hear the wood. Okay? Yiu wnt, because it has no effect when plugged in.
@stonedrocker666 actually it does. you really must be stoned if you think the wood has nothing to do with the tone. different wood, different tone...simple as that. btw, you can hear the difference in wood tones with the pickups turned down just as easily as you can when they're turned up full blast.
@stonedrocker666 of course wood makes a difference!!! mahogany, basswood, ash, alder, maple and rosewood have very distinct tones!! if you played a tele with a maple neck and rosewood fretboard, and then changed the neck for an all-maple one it would have a brighter sound.
@stonedrocker666 Common sense like the sky being brown and grass being blaze fucking orange. You should take your idiocy over to the Harmony Central forums where you belong, with all the other monkeys that think they're scientists.
Fuckin hell I think you've stumbled onto something fuckin big here. I guess all the fuckin marketing dollars and research that has gone into them was a waste of time. I guess thousands of buyers worldwide are all wrong as well. I bet Fender and Gibson are shitting themselves with your revelations my friend. Gibson have already risked prison in their wood sourcing, you've made it so much easier for them with your research findings. Fucking amazing stuff.
That reverb pedal is like a night out drinkin', the later into the night it gets "9:00, midnight, 3:00" The more drunk you get, and the more distorted and strange everything sounds around you.
@baconbut95 well ive tried several straps but i want a leather strap that fits my height because i bought one and it fits me but i cant put it as low as phil has it on this vid
I dont know why everyone hates the “Norlin Era”. They are still high quality guitars. They have more sustain and heavier bodies, thats pretty much it.
I guess it depends on how you view the history of PRIEST...Al Atkins wrote this song WHISKEY WOMAN before leaving Priest, which became a PRIEST Classic. The guy who replaced Al, Rob Halford wrote a song called RED LIGHT LADY, and the band put the two songs together and titled it VICTIM OF CHANGES.
hey, my name is anthony and I'm from Brazil. every day I see the videos of Phil x and not get tired of seeing. Phil x is the best guitarist in the world!
okay phil, i see that wolf looking guitar at :35. i can also see the tiger looking one behind it. can you pleaaasse do jerry garcia justice and play those guitars. PLLEEEAASE :)
I dont know which to get, im mostly trying to figure out if i want the ac30 of evil robot. I have a 1966 fender mustang and 1962 Strat. i like to play music by red hot chilli peppers, arctic monkeys, the strokes... pretty much any rock music from the 90's to now. i can afford to buy both, but idk which to get? any advice?
@animepwn3r yeah i did a lot and played the AC15 and AC30 a lot in guitar center. i already bought an ac30, seeing as how it has such great clean sounds.
@sekacbarc AC30 is great for clean. I mean, Jimmy Page used AC30’s on stage with Marshall 100 watt heads. The Evil Robot has (I know this is the wrong word) a “Cheaper” sound, great for 90’s music.
hmmm??..Besides this guitar looking different, feeling different, and sounding absouloutly nothing like a regular les paul.....I think its just like a regular les paul custom.
YOU REALLY AT PLAYING THE GUITAR AS MOST SERIOUS MUSICIANS ARE
BUT ?? BUT , CAN YOU BUILD A REAL ELECTRIC GUITAR??
I WANNA SEE A NEW SEGMENT ON YOUR YOUTUBE VIDEOS AS A GOOD SUGGESTION
WHERE IN REAL TIME, WE CAN SEE YOU WALKING TO A LOCAL HOME DEPOT, ORDERING A PIECE OF WOOD, THEN GOING TO THE WOODSHOP AND CUTTING OUT A NICE COOL SHAPE :) THEN YOU ADD IN THE STRINGS, THE NECK, THE PICK-UPS, DO A NICE PAINTJOB ON YOUR NEW CUSTOM GUITAR & PLAY IT?
awesome man haha the maple neck kinda made it sound straty in the clean tone!
