If you turn the sound down on this video, you can still hear the amp coming in through your windows. This is insane. 600watt amp.

Companies make 100watt amps and big bands use them. As a consequence, thousands of people buy them. If the Foo Fighters or U2 or the Stones used one of these for ...

@briansmoke ER... I Know it's spelt Humbucker.

@JerryBeatFreak You'd probably have some issues with a 4 watt amp in a band setting. I've got an 18 watter that I build, and it has plenty of volume.

@IverDaBest He's not actually doing this for just anyone who can log onto youtube. He's doing this for people who can play, and who want to play better, or get inspired.

I really think that Guthrie Govan's ability to grab the feel of Eric Johnson, or Steve Morse, Steve Vai, or anyone, and be totally musically convincing sets him apart as a great guitar player. He has put in the hours, but what he plays is not monotonous (i mean that literally). He is creative w...

Nice work. Jimmy Page actually recorded this with a Telecaster in the middle position.

I'm midway through building my own SL18. Finished all the chassis wiring tonight. I'm going to start testing it tomorrow, and hopefully get some sound from it soon. It is currently at PP18 stage. Really looking forward to getting some nice sounds from it.

@Kaylaaagirl There is no god.

Bollocks!

The song is called Apostrophe. The comment - "Your Welcome" is grammatically ironic.

If you can afford it. Get the spectrum DI. It gives you more tools for performance. I had a Aura Dreadnought (just like this, but preset images). I also had to take a pre-amp and compressor to gigs. The spectrum DI does all this and more.

@sarego2008 There is no way of knowing without contacting Fishman. On the individual pedals, they didn't list what the images were, they do on this one. You will however be able to find some images that sound tasty with your guitar and load them into the user bank for your own use.

I had the...

It won't make your guitar sound like another type of guitar, for example, if you start with a dreadnought guitar, and put it through this, only the appropriate dreadnought guitar images would sound appropriate. I have one and I'v used the Aura software to put a few images of guitars of a similar ...

I've got an Aura Spectrum DI right beside me. The sound of this is amazing. I used to take along a preamp and a compressor, and the previous Aura Dreadnought pedal.

This has a tuner - EQ section, Aura images for practically any acoustic band instrument, a compressor,anti-feedback, XLR DI, effe...

I'd rather hear the guitar and not the masses of reverb on this.

@secretpal666 I think that the point is that we shouldn't be raising lions in captivity. Great story, but the text on the video has been written very badly. Never mind.

2:54 'Impossimal'. Can't fix that though.

@helterskelter786 It wounds? Eh!!??

@gonzalezmacias Need More!!!!!!

Finally companies are making multi effects which use amp effects loops properly. I've been waiting for this to happen for years.

@chexycat 'there's no such thing as rockstars, there's just people who play music - some of them are just like us and some of them are dicks.'

Nice banjo playing.

Ketchup is not a tomato based solvent. It is a vinegar based solvent. This works for making bulshit based speakers.

To get the foil to move any air, you'd need the penny to move. To get the penny to move, you'd need some kind of inductor (like an electromagnet). This can't work because you can't get the foil to move. You just can't. A shiny penny will make no difference. One cent is made of 97.5% Zinc ...

They're getting a platinum award because of the way they look. Fantastic. Perhaps someone should write a script (and stick to it).

That's an Elm tree in the meadows he's riding up. I miss Edinburgh.

This is a digital delay. It take the input, converts it to digital - processes it (does the delay) - then converts it back to analog and sends it out according to how you've set it.

The TC stuff has very high quality digital converters. The result is very smooth and musical delays. I've got ...

@Johannagiudice Not so happy. He smashed up his 1972 Gibson ES-325 guitar after this gig and threw it into the crowd due to sound problems. The backing tapes that they have with the extra guitar and synth parts weren't audible out front. He was very pissed off. The bits were retrieved and Gib...

The keyboards sound like they're done on a stylophone

This is actually a really clean way of hooking up guitars, amps and pedals. I have a 6 way custom pedalsnake with 6 standard lines. It powers all of my pedals carrying 9vDC/12VDC and 12vAC through three lines, with guitar signal in another. Amp switch in another, and effects loop send/return in...

His current band are amazing. I've seen him and Marillion a few times over the years in all guises. I saw him solo a few times upstairs from the Liquid Room in what was the Preservation Hall 20 years ago. I saw him last year in Norwich, and he still has all the power and charm he ever had. Hi...

WTF is Titel? Don't you mean Title?

I'm wondering if he got paid for writing this. Also, is it hard to play. What a lot of wank.

This is completely unwatchable. The fact that you thought this would be interesting enough to post on here is mind-boggling.
