Me And My Guitars - Jackson Matt Tuck Signature 

@@PoisonedandFallen 🙌🏻

Thank you man, so glad you enjoyed. I’m using new and easier editing software to use so longer videos like this are a breeze now!

Thank you so much! 🤘🏻

Yeah man, I had no idea at the time how rare these would turn out to be!

See the js 32 line it has a similar one, then change the picups to emgs

Thank you so much man! Really glad you enjoyed! 🤘🏻🎸

Thank you man I will do! 2 to go.. for now haha

@@nihilist92 haha awesome there’s always room for more guitars!

Thank you I’m glad you think so! 🤘🏻

Yeah I love those silver sparkle ones. Now that’s interesting about your 7 string, As I just bought the RRX24 MG7 and I really like it in Matt black, as I’ve always fancied one of the black versions of the MT rhoads and I does look similar… BUT, you’ve got me thinking now haha.. it would look killer in silver sparkle!

Thanks - I’m made up you enjoyed this!

Thank you!

@@nihilist92 you're most welcome mate and the one thumbs down person must have been in a terrible brain damaging accident bless them

@@lloydnorval1989 hahah, love it 😂

Thank you so much man! Yeah I love Randy. I don’t think guitar playing would be where it is today if it wasn’t for him and we wouldn’t have guys like Zakk who is a massive influence on my playing. Thank you again for your kind words! 🤘🏻🎸

I’m quite jealous that you have it in silver actually haha but I do like my white one. Out of the BC and the Jackson I’d always go with my BC and yeah it sounds better like you said. It feels more substantial when I’m playing it too which makes the Jackson feel a little delicate these days. But my Jackson is definitely my go to guitar for leads etc 🤘🏻

Man you were so lucky with have seen them on that tour! I don’t think Matt gets the credit for what a tight rhythm player he really is.

Thanks man! Ah you’re very lucky! They’re great aren’t they 🤘🏻

@@nihilist92 yeah theyre verry nice. Mine need a refretting

@@Metal__life_ Ah man thats a tricky one! Hope you can get it sorted!

Maann I’m to totally jealous of your silver one haha 😂 there’s a new signature guitar from one of the guys in Gojira which is very similar to this that just been announced. It’s pretty much the same apart from not having the neck pickup though - which is an absolute must for me. The sign in the corner came from a cheap pound shop here in the UK ages ago, like a Home Bargains store kind of thing. I didn’t actually get it myself but that’s where it’s from! 🤘🏻

Hey man! First of all, well done you for finding one of these things as they’re so damn rare now! So I’d snap that thing up and buy it regardless as it will be really tricky to come across another! The first thing I’d say is that each guitar has a different feel and guarantee this guitar will feel so much shorter than your 24 fret ESP. However with getting used to another guitar and finding where things sit positionally kind of comes with the territory regardless of that you buy - so I’d say buy something you like 100% and feel that you can work with. I would 100% recommend that you arrange to go and play the guitar even if it does mean travelling a little. This will not only determine whether you like it or not but whether there’s anything wrong with it being second hand n’all. It’s important that you spend as much time as you like playing it (within reason 😂) and you’re 100% happy with it before purchasing. One last point I’ll make as well as far as the fret access goes.. regardless of the number of frets etc there really is nothing stopping you getting high up there as there’s nothing at all in the way body wise, so access to those upper frets is super easy. This is my go to guitar when it comes to tracking solos for videos on my channel. I hope this helps! 🤘🏻

@@nihilist92 Hey man! Thanks for the detailed reply! I sadly wont be able to play in person as it is 10 hours away and our country is in lockdown so I can't get there anyway. I decided to buy it anyway as I can always onsell if for some reason I do not like it. I did have one more question. My current guitar has a 14 inch radius and I use VERY low action. The Jackson has a 12 to 16 compound so Im just concerned that the higher radius near the nut means I will have to have the action higher than I am used to which I probably wouldn't like. Is the difference rather minimal? Can you still get SUPER low action with this guitar? Cheers!

@@liammcknight3845 Ah man, Im made up you've bought it and I hope that you really enjoy it as much as I enjoy mine! As far as the action goes, Ive got mine super low so I think it just depends on who sets up your guitars. however If you're setting it up yourself you shoud have no issue getting the strings on top of the frets as mine is super low.

I agree with you there, definitely Hard tails for drop tuning.. and absolutely, 8 strings is far too much! 🤘🏻

That’s Poison by Alice Cooper bro. Very cool riff! 🤘🏻

They're tricky to find but they are out there!

@@nihilist92 If all goes well with shipping, I just snagged a silver sparkle one! :D May have overpaid no idea, I saw it and had to have it. What do you recommend for straps as this is my first V? 'm terrified to ruin this guitar.

@@TheColton0117 congrats! I just use my normal straps with this guitar and have had no issues.

I will 100% be doing that at some point! I’ve had a few people ask so I’m just building anticipation now haha

Hi man, Good question! I believe I paid around £800 for this guitar brand new with the hard case. Maybe a little more.

@@nihilist92 god damn, lucky guy. I've been on the hunt for a Matt tuck Jackson or a Paget ESP for a while. Do you have a suggestion of a guitar that would be similar in sound/looks that's a bit more easily available? Thanks

@@Will-uu8ed yeah I had no idea at the time how rare these would become! I’ve always fancied trying to find a silver sparkle one but they’re just impossible to find these days! In terms of a more affordable similar guitar I’d definitely check out the Jackson Js32 line. I believe they do a white rhoads with black bevels similar to this and it’s only around the £200-£300 mark I believe. The guitar player from Gojira had just brought out a signature Jackson rhoads too which is nearly identical to this guitar but just doesn’t have the front pickup (which is imperative for me) so you’re not getting quite the same thing. I hope this helps!

@@nihilist92 thanks for the info, just subbed, your scream aim fire tutorial helped me get the intro down really quickly

@@Will-uu8ed no worries man and thank you for subscribing! I like to do a lesson video on each bullet song I do cover of nowadays so I’m really glad you like the one of SAF. I’m also glad it was easy for you to follow so thanks for the feedback!! Just one other thing too, talking about guitars earlier.. The esps that Padge ended up with as a signature guitars were actually based off of ex Dave mustaine signatures before he moved to Dean. They’re pretty much impossible to find these days but I’d recommend the Dave Mustaine signature VMNTs 100% if you like that big V shape. There’s a few out there now even though he’s moved to Gibson.

They’re pretty much impossible to find now! I was lucky as I got mine off the shelf when they were being sold in stores.

check my latest video - the white one

Ashes of the Innocent chorus by BFMV.. I never noticed how similar it sounds to the bark at the moon pre chorus though!
