Aint those replacement pickups on the SG? They`re usually chrome covers or no covers at all !!....!Just wondered! Peace Ye`all !! PS ! Loving these riffs ! Have to check out the band !Peace Ye`all !!!

i wanna make a diddley bow, should i get a acoustic guitar pickup or a electric guitar pickup?

[MrMortadelas]

nice tutorial, few things though.

a)Sell the line6, get the amp you simulate most, you'll love the actual sound.

b)You sound like you borrowed the guitars, also sell em and get one that suits your riffing.

This is a bad tutorial. You use use the bridge pickup for rhythmic playing awhile using the neck for more "expressive" playing.

that riff is core bullshit, not metal. i cant stand that garbage.

and get a good guitar for fucks sake, these 2 guitars are garbage. get a jackson soloist and a real sg and keep em STOCK

Great videos, but unfortunately the tone on the guitars is absolutely abysmal, and the guy with a guitar doesn't know how to play at all. I still watched through your guitar series though, expected the tone to improve but it didn't.

[chriscoooley]

it would help if the guy knew how to play

@asdfasdsfsa Dude, that's exactly what it is, take a look at the next video...

[ILikeJuice]

I think that the guitars would have a LOT more tonal difference if the amp weren't a Line 6. Those things color the sound a LOT! I noticed a huge difference playing store guitars with different pickups/woods through the tube amps. Unfortunately, I have 1 normal guitar, and 1 fretless so the video would be kinda pointless.

sounds like recorded with a crappy effects processor... this doesn't even sound like a miced amp.
