EvinKieransMusic I saw Rabea picking an American rig and thought something along the lines of a PRS Custom through a Peavey or EVH 5150 style amp. Especially after wanting to crush them. I dig the rig, but Rabea is like my favourite guitarist on RU-vid and it felt weird seeing something that wasn't his in your face metal stuff.

Her rocking ability has far surpassed the Squier Strat that she's been practicing on for 11 years, so now it's time to Flying V 4life.

+SamBrev i was going to say. for guitars. Gibson and fender are phenominal, but i was hoping your 3rd choice is not ibanez? christ lol, replace that with PRS, or ESP, i would play a shector over ibanez, i will never play an ibanez, after you own a gibson les paul, i own a marshall jcm 2000 but i never use it, i love my fender 65 reissue tube amp, however, on my pedal board i love my HT dual distortion pedal by blackstar, so i have a british valve distortion pedal going into an american clean tone amp, sounds so good, it sounds like gold mixed with diamonds.

Music man guitars are light years ahead of Gibson. $2000 musicmans in the stores are simply vastly better in every regard than Gib standards. If you want a good Gibson, you have to pay much higher than any musicmans price. And for $5000, really, every luthier in the world can make you a dream guitar.

Well. A lot of musician's trust music man and their guitars. Especially the Steve Morse signature and John Petrucci's Majesty are looking very interesting and at the same time versatile.

And PRS is way better for way less. Gibsons are as overrated as they come. They have nice necks, but Les Pauls are horribly uncomfortable to play in most positions (no tummy cut), the neck joint is crap (not that PRS is better, to be fair), they're heavy, and nowhere near worth the amount of money they cost.

I can tell that Rabea does not like Joe from his facial expressions.

@richardharrold9736 8 лет назад

Rabea's facial expressions are always odd. You know when he's really LOVING a tone from the grimace of disgust on his face. He's sort of the exact opposite of what you'd expect.

@yuuyacook355 7 лет назад

he doesn't listen to rabea at all, and he takes all the spotlight and doesn't share it. he's the stereotypical loud, selfish, and arrognt american. also he picked a fucking musicman. he had fender AND gibson. what the actual fuck is wrong with that man

Blaz Pogacnik the "arrogant American" is most definitely not something an American would joke about.

@JBiggsNewJersey 8 лет назад

Joe went with some weird picks.. after they brought in the JCM 800 I thought they were gonna bring in a Mesa rig and a Gibby or PRS or something for the sake of one-upmanship

@ibalrog 3 года назад

It's vastly amusing to hear God Save the Queen - without lyrics - in a US vs UK context. My country, 'tis of thee...

@stevematsukawa6342 7 лет назад

The iconic rig is of course, a Gibson SG into a Marshall JCM800. But a good American amp would have been a Peavey 5150 or a Mesa double rectifier. With the Gibson SG of course, Standard or Deluxe or whichever.

@IronOrePickaxe 9 лет назад

Using a little combo against a Marshall head and 4x12 cab is like using a plastic ruler against a guy with a sword.

I agree, although the young chap on the British rig sounded as smooth as a stick of butter, that little Tone King sounded like a tub of butter, Fat, and thick like most Americans... Both rigs ruled!!

"We can't be pick the LTD, because it's American, instead, we're picking Chapman guitars because they're British." PS: LTD and Chapman guitars are made in the same country, in the same city, in the same factory, by the same people. World Musical Instruments.

Rob Chapman I am from New York but I must say that the British Rig was far better of a choice overall, including sound and dollar for dollar, even though money was no option, there could have been better choices for the American rig- personal preference-

As a Brit I know that there are many things that the British simply do better than the Yanks. But when it comes to guitars I should - nae must - give a hats off to the states. USA vs UK when it comes to guitars = a USA victory. We make the best amps though, hands down.

Not sure why team US didn't go with something like a nice PRS or upper level Gibson with a Mesa Boogie head...Would've been much better than what they used.

@georgesuarez1949 9 лет назад

I'm not sure Riff City carries PRS guitars....maybe thats why...either way, their choice was awesome and creative...

@drdoom8793 9 лет назад

They weren't at Riff City. They were at Anderton's. Did you not notice the several PRSes on the wall of the room they did the battle in?

@drdoom8793 9 лет назад

Fair enough. But to that argument, Marshall (and Orange) was the obvious choice for the UK team's amp. And honestly, I'd say Fender would be a more obvious choice than PRS.

@georgesuarez1949 9 лет назад

drdoom8793 yes...but the owner for Riff City was picking out the US rig...why would he pick out a guitar that he can't sell...If you notice the amp that he picked out is a vendor that is coming to Riff City. Basic business...I would do the same.

@Tweek5470 9 лет назад

They both chose wrong. The correct amps would have been a Marshall top with an Orange cab, and a triple rec into a Boogie cab! Also I think Ibanez and LTD are Japanese guitar companies.

How about an Axis Vs. Allies showdown German and Japanese gear vs American British gear. Would be interesting. I thought the American rig had clearer definition on the top end. So I would pick that. overall but for some sounds I would like the British rig.

@jimmyg5608 9 лет назад

Sounds highly politically correct

@orlock20 9 лет назад

In general terms the U.S. tone is clean and the British tone is crunch. As far as the Axis and Allies twist I'd go with Ibenez Iceman in an Engl Powerball II with Engl 4x12 cabinet vs a PRS 513 in a Vox AC30 combo.
