Music Gear and Equipment Reviews. All equipment is purchased for my personal use. All videos done on my cellphone to replicate what it's like for all of us to record at home and play it back. You will hear the same sounds and tones that you would hear if you were to do it yourself.I enjoy RU-vid and want like to participate! Music is everything to me and I am a real geek on gear.since my first personal purchase at 11 years old,I've been looking and buying gear.Today's gear is very exciting!! I am a Musician! But I am a Roadie for a living. Lots of fun with gear,Full time. What you see is the gear that I've purchased for my personal Studio! Long live Music! Have fun!
BTW these are very underrated! I kick myself for selling my 1st. It was great for D standard or C sharp stuff. The humbucker sounds good enough for metal for home, and quality was phenomenal. Very surprising
I bought a purple one from gc used but it was basically brand new for $270 I pulled A STUPID move and sold it. immediately bought a schecter platinum, was nice but not really inspiring to me. Sold the schecter and many guitars lately to almost eat! Anyhow I just bought a good condition blue md400 this morning for $130 - $150 total shipped
Yeah it’s fake, yeah it doesn’t sound great, BUT if I put in new pickups it sounds and looks awesome, I don’t care if it’s fake, as long as it’s cool it’s fine for me
Also grounding the tail piece by removing ferrule and drill hole into cavity inside the ferrule hole for ground wire. Most ALL Les Pauls, need this done. Nuff Said
I remember Dime chasing me around my town in a car with Zuess (producer Shadows fall, rob zombie) trying to get me to open up the store so he could buy a Dean on a closed sunday! I should have opened up. My fail.
Yeah, so you are generalizing a lot. Musically goes both ways, and the middle is where most musicians live. I have, even in my own family examples of both types that break your own biases. You sound inexperienced, and like you haven't played in many situations. In the studio world, it is about 50/50 as far as "schooled" vs "self taught" as far as weakness based on their learning. You have "relative pitch", like most musicians do. 2:19 that has nothing to do with perfect pitch, that is theory. Jamming is also done all the time, no less than ever before. Maybe not in your age group. I know in mine, .. (older than you) So... what are intervals... ? Ramble, as you caught yourself doing often... and still not a focused explanation. Ok, at the piano. .." white note are full notes or whole notes if that is what you said.."? And "I Quote: A whole note (American) or semibreve (British) in musical notation is a single note equivalent to or lasting as long as two half notes or four quarter notes." You should work it out a little more before trying to explain stuff. The meandering is confusing to people. And being good at music is just that, no matter how one learns. I just always here self taught coming at the "those who know can't just play, or create" . Proves you are missing something about "creations" elements. \ Keep going on these videos though! More music All the time!!!
Rick Beato's kid can hear whatever he wants to but that's not necessarily going to manifest into a great musician. There are lots of great musicians that don't have perfect pitch, like George Benson and Herbie Hancock. Perfect pitch if unused is nothing more than a parlour trick.
I've been playing piano since 1991 when I was in third grade. I'm good with hearing songs in my head in the correct key (Levitin Effect) but calling out a played note by name has always been tricky for me. My relative pitch is pretty good. If you asked me to sing an "A" I would think of a song in my head in E and climb the scale in my head from there.
Looking at this video, unless you somehow have it mirrored, which I don’t think so, half of that mix isn’t even on the speaker since it’s an offset speaker. Looking at my same amp, it send you may be recording straight plywood. Am I wrong?
Could have gotten iron gear pickups that sound awesome for about 125 a set and saved on pots also. Could have gotten the price down to about 500 and it would still sound and play great.
Just measure the intonation correctly find the right size gauge string and pick the genre you like to would want to play the most and you would want to learn how to tune by ear not by mechanism or technology tuning by ear and sound is the best acute way of accurately fine-tuning a guitar instrument thank you😮
Go over to the Fulton Street Beats you tube channel, to find out that you can own one of these legally, and you can play out with it, and even sell it as long as you specify it's a fake, he's done extensive research into the law,I have a cherry burst standard chibson and a black Angus Young SG with lightening bolt inlays,both guitars put all my other budget guitars to shame, I've found these chibsons are the closest you can get to the real deal, just how they feel in your hands, I would say the necks on both of my chibsons feel exactly like real Gibson necks, and they nailed the looks,knob placement,finish ect, your just not going to find a better guitar for the price, I bought one so I could leave my good guitars at home when I gig, and they turned out so nice, I'm afraid to take them to a gig too.🤣👍
Its sad to see such a prestigious brand name placed onto the headstock of a guitar that is made in a Chinese factory... Is this all just about the desperate need to have the gibson name or is it about the guitar, the heritage and the music... I wonder if Paul Kossoff would have played a, Chibson or if Slash has started collecting them for live performances?
Lots of clear giveaways that it's fake. Real Gibson Les Paul Customs have ebony fretboards, not rosewood. Those gold pickup ring screws should be black. The bridge posts are the import style. The Grover tuners should have the tulip style keys, not kidney bean style. The headstock binding goes past the nut when it should end at the nut. The headstock angle is 14 degrees when it should be 17. The trussrod cover is silk-screened when it should be engraved. The serial number and "Made in USA" is engraved into the painted headstock when it should be stamped into the wood and then painted over. There are many more tells. By the way, the burst that goes around the edge is called Desertburst. The traditional burst is teardrop-shaped.
whats that black les paul body string through schecter looking headstock guitar? im try to guessing whats the bike under the cover..? the shape looks dual round headlight .
@@geargeeks8955 I mean, in the principle, I have nothing against Epiphone making exact copies of Gibson guitars, but some of them are getting close to the 2000$ mark, which is a totally absurd price. For to pay such a price for an Epiphone, it would have to be really really special, like I don't know ... stainless steel jumbo frets, graphite rods reinforced neck, a PLEK fret job, comfort neck to body joint, great fast neck with modern slim taper profile, great locking tuners, compensated graphtech nut, fine tuning stop tailpiece, great pickups and reliable electronics (Bourns 82 series potentiometers, etc) and all the "beauty appointments": great multiply bindings on the top & back of the body, the neck and the headstock + pearl or abalone fretboard inlays, etc... I mean, the whole shebang, like on some great fancy LTD 1000 Deluxe and some more. Otherwise, these import Epiphone "Gibson copies" should only be at a maximum around 1000$ mark and not more. Anyway, HAVE FUN & PLAY LOUD ! 👍👍
I just bought a Chinese Washburn Dimebag. Beautiful guitar but the Floyd is crap. My problem is the abalone block inlays aren't smooth with the fret board, they are raised. They are glued in but it's like they are too tall for the holes or maybe they didn't finish sanding the fret board after they were installed if that's even a thing.
I had this happen on a Les Paul with flame inlays but to fix it I had to pull all the frets, radius sand the fretboard from 800 up to 1600 grit then install and setup all new frets. Now it plays like a dream.
You mentioned the dime bag.. I purchased a real one for $550 with tax and shipping here in the us. I did a video on it you should see it it came out okay. It plays well... I believe the key to the China guitars is buying one from a company that's cheating on a real vendor from USA.. the USA one I purchased is comparable to the $1500 ones I've seen. Sorry for your experience.
