[XxGodSlappedBOYxX]

Im just starting to learn guitar, so i didn't spend a whole lot of money on an amp or guitar, my amp has an overdrive, but its only a button, no drive or level. Also i only have High and Low, other than that this was helpful to learn all the basics of my amp.

[pya114]

Brilliant, but one last thing - Can I have you guitars?!

[emilowich]

Hey 'm a beginner just trying to buy a guitar, and I've got to know, does buying an electric guitar come with an amp or is it seperate? Because money's pretty tight around my family and I want to know if I have enough money.

[mrguit4rmaster]

[Langinator2713]

@devilgloom it's a epiphone les Paul

[12stefy]

Hey, I have a problem. My amplifier only has an overdrive button, gain, tone and volume. I really wanted to buy a cheap amp, thinking it doesn't really matter, but now it doesn't actually help me. I'm just asking if there's anything I can do to get that rock/ heavy metal sound. I have a gibson flying v guitar and a legacy le10d amplifier. I would really appreciate your help.

[devilgloom]

does anyone knows what's the guitar brand?

[tehsilentsoul]

Hey can anyone tell me what guitar he is using? The beginning one please the exact name thanks !!

[lOskarl]

@tehsilentsoul Epiphone Les Paul Standard I think.

[tehsilentsoul]

@lOskarl Hey man thanks, Do you think a ephiphone les paul custom would be good for a first guitar?

[lOskarl]

@tehsilentsoul I don't know because Im buying my first guitar in this month also :D, and Im buying the Epiphone Les Paul Standard. I don't know about custom but I was recommended not to buy the Epiphone Les Paul Special, because it is not that good.

[bornfrentertainment]

Thx Dude i hav leant guitar from youtube ' i hav never taken tutions

this has helped me a lot

keep it up and may god bless u

[xxPanteraxxx]

@bornfrentertainment

Same. I've always found one on one lessons to be quiet boring to be honest. I prefer learning from YouTube videos! :D

[12345jerkboys]

Remember when you could watch a video without having to sit through a commercial?

Remember when music videos were uploaded by users and not VEVO1

Remember when all the info was to the right of the video?

Remember you could rate a video 1-5 stars?

Remember the famous yellow subscribe button?

Remember when the users controlled the site and not corporations?

WE MISS THE OLD YOUTUBE

Post this in every video and lets start a youtube revolution

Thumbs up

[FireIsTheCIeanser]

cool vid SUPER helpful

[Redribbo]

Wow thank you, i used to raise everything to max on my Line 6 spider IV! xD

[TyfutyDude]

hi! great video! i just have a problem. when i do the amp settings, which it seems like it works perfectly fine for you and others, it just sounds like a variation of an acoustic guitar. the only one that works for me that DOESNT sound like that acoustic guitar thing is the heavy metal, which may be because my gain/overdrive is turned all the way. help? my amp is a pyle m-15. thanks

[DrMisterAleksa]

i have more options like midle high and low, gain, drive, and that hromatic booster (my friend gave me AMP of 150 volume and its so big lol until i don t get my own wich will be ibanez). the problem is hromatic booster can t figure out what dose it do. PLZ TELL ME AND THANK YOU FOR THIS LESSON IT REALLY HELPED

[bassieeee7]

really usefull video, very clearly explained. I really liked how you gave examples for amp settings per music style. thanks!

[8Beowulf8]

Great video man! I never really understood the equalizer knobs on an amp. THANK YOU!

[eviliu]

In the first 45 seconds the dude says "guitar input" when he should say output, and "straight up at 5 o'clock" when he should say either at 5 or at 12 o'clock.

[DrMisterAleksa]

i ve gonna get les paul epiphone special 2. what amp do you using and how much did it cost in euro. thank you for itroduction

[funnyrabitbunny]

how much dose the amp cost?

[lolCatdotcom]

[laxdude95125]

[Thrasher5251]

Wat did u guys do first?

[HMBCP]

[benjinan]

"all set straight up to 5 o'clock". ..... lol

[Paulsoriginals97]

My Amp Is a Fender Frontman 15G & It Doesn't Have a Reverb Option, Please Help? :) Thanks..

[tukun3104]

i really like ur video but i have a problem my amp dont has overdrive or gain......but it does have a distortion effect but it doesn't last too long...u know what i mean

i have a peavey raptor plus exp guitar

[msternal]

@tukun3104 Check out some distortion pedals at your local music store to find one that has the distortion you like. Also, a lot of effects companies have samples on their websites.

[Juankinator]

so what about if i need to get distortion sound in the middle of a song without stopping?

[msternal]

@Juankinator Us a pedal. Some amps have a footswitch option that will switch between clean and overdrive channels. You can also use a distortion pedal between your guitar and clean channel, in which case you would not use the amplifier's overdrive channel.

[Juankinator]

@msternal thanks! so can i buy a cheap amp without overdrive and get a distortion pedal separated?

[msternal]

@Juankinator That's correct.

[DylanBStringer91]

3 People Only Play Acoustic!!!

[mentalrock]

i'm curious. I've been playing guitar on a cheap $80 marshal amp i dont use any settings and i keep the over drive unused. its always on clean so i can plug my line6 pocket pod in for effects. how ever the tone knob does still change the sound. should i leave it in the middle because i always had it at 1 before i watched this videos.

[msternal]

@mentalrock If you're getting your tone from the line 6, just leave the Marshall set flat, or in the middle for low, medium and high EQ.

[avatarcollides2day]

Epiphone

[Gurgle528sevrules1]

[modwebby]

is it possible to use headset on electric guitars so no one else hears what you play?

[gerraldd]

@modwebby yes you can if your amp has an input for headphones.

[modwebby]

@gerraldd wil lthat mute all sounds from the strings or will it still give like, acoustic sound? ( i dont want anyone in my house having sound problems )

[gerraldd]

@modwebby Yes it will still produce acoustic sound. Just try not to strum hard :D

[thijsairskater]

[Tekotron07]

Hello. I've started playing guitar a few months ago. I've started with an acoustic guitar, but now I'm also buying an electric one. How could I improve my speed and my picking? Please help. Thank you

thank you so much

[ChixJulie14]

why doesnt my amp do the same thing? ive put all the settings to the same thing as you and it dosnt change the sound... i have a roland cube 15 amp

[markingfeat]

i hate reverb

[BlazeTheChronic]

I got an Electric guitar for christmas and it came with this DVD about basic's by "Fender Presents" with Keith Wyatt, after the introduction he goes straight into learning about power cords but he says that he showed how to tune it before hand, which he didn't. The Amp that came with it is an SP-10 by Squier, it has an Input socket, Volume, a button for OD/Clean, treble and bass. He explains the cords in detail but doesn't mention the amp at all, should I be confused or does Amp stuff come later

[solarflare72]

@BlazeTheChronic

you should be confused - the stuff about the amp settings is the thing you need to get sorted out first -

since all amps have different knobs and different names for their knobs, its hard to find a guide.

I suggest playing around with the settings on your amp until you find something vaguely similar to what you want to hear from your guitar.

[BlazeTheChronic]

@solarflare72 Alright thanks! I don't think that DVD is the full length one, which makes me feel like it's just a waste of time watching it when there is video's like this on YouTube and helpful people around such as yourself. Thanks again, I've just got started and I've already been doubting if I can do this or not, but I guess a dream is a dream haha if it takes me till I'm 80 to learn some Buckethead at least I'll be one badass pensioner.

[solarflare72]

@BlazeTheChronic

haha, no problem.

and actually, i pretty much learned how to play guitar from watching loads of "How to play guitar!" videos on youtube...dvd's that come with the guitars are usually useless, since the people put them together in like 10 minutes lol

and chances are, if you want to learn some buckethead, there are tutorials for some of their songs on youtube, just look up "buckethead tutorials" or "how to play ____ by buckethead" and you might find something you can learn from.

[gamergeek3000]

could you please explain the presence control, and how to use it?

[dagles98]

I need an advice .. I decided to buy a guitar .. I like the bands like gnr,iron maiden,ac dc,aerosmith .. What shuld i take as my first guitar ? Also it has to be less then 220 euros ..

[van1980]

@dagles98 Agile Les PAul, one of the AL series.

[eliasmde4ever]

heavy metal part sounds really nice

[xander4301]

are guitars with only one pickup ok for beginners?

[lebronKYLE23]

Ya know what, My amp doesn't have the same things,, , , I am just gonna ask my cousin who has the same guitar & amp, To help me, he can play TONS of songs, these youtube ones aren't helping.

[jcreppert]

I just purchased my son one for Christmas , this will help him get statred , thank you ! Can't wait til he opens it !!!

[MARHeaven611]

this was really well explained, thankyou!

[MrRedbullkid]

i have that Les Paul its a beauty

[T2WTProductions]

i have three pickups 1 little and 2 bigger.

[undertakeredgar]

my amp does have the gain button and the volume botton nobs, but it also has a selector nob, that says, Overdrive, Distortion, Metal, Metal stack, and tube drive. Which of those should you recomend i use wich channe, i think its what they are called. I have Roland Cube 20x. I am new at this so yeah. Please help

[msternal]

@undertakeredgar They will all give you a heavy sound, some more so than others. So, it's up to what you like best.

[jcodym13]

@undertakeredgar actually its the distortion BUTTON and the gain KNOB. dont get them mixed up.

[bboylophty]

can u give me the futura prphecy fx looks well kool

[dRightLeft]

Can't focus on the lecture.I'm distracted by the LES PAUL.

[realjuvelive]

I don't have level or overdrive on my amp ! I only have bass middle treble volume and gain!!

[msternal]

@realjuvelive Level is the same as Volume. Overdrive is the same as Gain.

Make sure volume is all the way down when you crank the gain, and ease it up slowly or you might piss off your neighbors.

[realjuvelive]

@msternal XD what do you think of gear4music amp?

[schizophrenic10]

@msternal Hi. I am a novice in terms of electric guitar. This video is really cool and consolidates all information for a beginner. Thanks a lot. I have a question related to my amp. I have a treble, middle, bass, volume and Reverb in my amp. But no gain. Which external device should i attach to my amp to get the gain / overdrive effect so that i can start playing rock or heavy metal ? Thanks in advance

[jcodym13]

@msternal dude thanks so much for this video ive never known what EXACT settings (bass,treble,middle) to put my amp on until now

[omaxable]

@realjuvelive is it Yamaha

[realjuvelive]

@omaxable what ? was my question ? remind me point it out

[realjuvelive]

@MegaBunnyProduction Thanks for useful answer

[nennii93]

Hi i have a question: Is learnig acoustic guitar chords the same as electric guitar chords because i want to learn to play the electric guitar and i do have one but im learning with a acoustic guitar book. is that right?

[msternal]

@nennii93 Hello, Yes, they are the same. Check out Easy Guitar Chords DVD if you are just starting out. Very inexpensive, but a lot of information to get you playing all kinds of chords and rhythms in every key.

[kaan866]

@nennii93 itz the same

[realjuvelive]

Hey thanks ! I don't know these things cause just play classical guitar ! XD

[civcity2]

hay man, i love the vid could u pls put more up coz this has helped me more than eny lesson ive ever had :)

[WRCreedRS]

Does every AMP got an overdrive mode?

[msternal]

@WRCreedRS No, some just have a single channel. However, most amps come with overdrive, sometimes called Gain.

[MRCALIfornyay]

i just got a line 6 with effects but its just for learning and after that ill get myself a new guitar of some sort and a vox amp

[miljaardetedju]

I'm going to buy the randall kh120rhs for 750€ about 985 USD It's called the best amp in that price range for metal. But i want to know if it's good becouse you know a lot about amps and guitars so maybe you can help me out.

[msternal]

@miljaardetedju Nice amp! Do it.

[miljaardetedju]

@msternal Ok that's all I wanted to hear from someone who knows about it thanks for the advice.

[Extremest242]

I got 1 question, If Amp has only 10 watts, is it possible that it has less buttons when yours?

[msternal]

@Extremest242 Not exactly, it all depends on the brand. Most have the same or very similar layout.

[MrHavocjk]

Thnks, this saved me money

[AlexanderRaccoon]

do you know anything about the line 6 spider III model

[newmoonlake]

what kind of amp do you suggest for beginners

[msternal]

@newmoonlake What style music do you want to play and what is your price range? I'll give you a list of suggestions that you can check out at a local music store or online.

[newmoonlake]

@msternal I plan on playing metal and classic rock my price range is from $100 to $200

[msternal]

@newmoonlake If it was just Classic Rock, I would say the Epiphone Valve Jr. You can crank it up and get some Metal tones, but you will need to add effects eventually. Visit a music store and try a few amps in that price range.

[RrVvEeNn]

that is the name of this amp ??

[msternal]

The amp is an Epiphone Studio 15R.
