Multimeter: Guitar Diagnostics 

METALZOOOOONNEEEE

SET ALL THE GAIN

Set gain to 11, bass to 10, mid to -4 and high to 3. Then push a metalzone pedal through it with the tone, volume and drive all set to 10. Gives it a pretty good metal sound

Just put it in a blender...

You gotta run it through your fx loop

🤣 can’t get enough of hearing “Peckop”

And souldar

I turned the captions on and he said Your Mother's Se*ual Aids.

AlasPoorJordan Ive saved at least $500 in instrument cables alone in the past 5 years simply by knowing how to use the continuity beep and how to solder. I totally agree.

I couldn't place what seemed so unusual about the guy. You're right. And thank you for confirming the info is legitimate. I'm typical in not knowing much about the subject, but I'm interested in learning.

After much failure and disappointment, my mother is now using diesel power.....reliability is important to her.

Its an American thing. soder....

InsomniacMatt and that cuts me deep down inside like a kanife, because the D is silent! It's Djent! Not duh-jent!

Keith Buck Speak for yourself. Im American and I go out of my way to pronouNBC e it as "solder" just to help the next person remember it and say it properly. Same goes for Porsche...its Porsche-uh. Just doing my part.

JackstandJohnny it's "sodder". the brits lost the language when they lost the war. ;)

Great to hear solder and nice hair. No silly baseball caps the wrong way around

Aye, you right. He does cover this in his cable mod/fixing video though.

good point, also on 5:10 .You need to test the center and one of the others pins of the potentiometer and turn it all the way, looking for a smooth movement of the resistance. sometimes, for some short or dirt on the track, you end up with cracks and noise. Hope my english was good enough to be understand.

Do you mean when measuring the DC resistance of the coil, or the general output of the pickup while in operation?

@@ScienceofLoud Either really, I do have a multimeter but I'm a bit clueless. I installed some fluence moderns and they sound thin and weak in all pickup positions and voicings :(

+L Desmond one of them has lots of gain, the other doesn't. What else would you like to know about them?

CSGuitars well I play very clean and I was wondering which would be better for me low or high gain (the amp would be about 50 watts tube)

L Desmond . I don't mean to butt in, but if you want the cleanest tube amp possible go for higher wattage. The lower wattage usually means it will break up or distort sooner as you raise the volume. In general, the higher the wattage the higher the "headroom", or in other words, the more volume you can crank up before you get distortion in your signal. I hope that helps! :-)

L Desmond - If you want a very clean sound, you should definitely have a listen to the individuals amplifiers you are interested in. I mean, some are so much about "Rock and Metal" that they're difficult to keep from overdriving the signal, sometimes even the "clean" channel, which can still go into a light overdrive. - "High gain" usually means that they're designed to just have loads of distortion, like Randall amps are generally "high gain" because the pre-amps just have loads of output. That doesn't mean they can't do great cleans. Again to just use Randall as an example, they can actually have beautiful clean sounds. - But it also depends on the design. Take Roland amplifiers for example, especially the ones like "Jazz Chorus" models, they don't even have a drive-circuit built in, at least for the longest time. Now the models that also have digital modeling in them might have drive sounds, but they're still fantastic at creating a very clean and clear sound. - Also mind what you plug into them. I don't suppose you have high output pickups, because those tend to push the signal too hard as well. - It's about lower output from the guitar and pre-amp, with plenty of headroom.
