I've been playing my Ibanez RG7's in church for decades and they fit in perfectly. Plus the locking systems have the added bonus of rarely going out of tune.
Nice! 7 strings can traverse the baritone and regular electric guitar space. And people don't realise how practical a double locking bridge is, considering I have to retune twice a service.
True story- started in worship with an EVH crop circles, single humbucker, one volume knob, there's some magic in that simplicity. The Jacksons are really nice instruments, love the sounds you get out of both of them, great take on Lion and the Lamb!!
And as I learnt doing this video, I severely under-estimated the single humbucker, single volume knob setup! Thanks for the kind words! I had a blast playing something near and dear to my heart (2000's hard/punk/emo rock).
theres a story of my dad id like to share. his main guitar for he longest time till he passed it down to me was a bc rich warlock with a replacement neck. it has ibanez blade pickups. he loved to play a lot of stuff other than metal on it. one time about ten years ago he took it to the church we went to when i was a kid. the guitarist was shocked to see what was in the case. it was that very warlock. but needless to say that guitar is easily one of the most versatile guitars i've ever used and heard. bottom line is. anything can be used for anything if in the right hands. this video hit the nail right on the head. awesome video, keep up the great work.
If that guitar sounds too loud, turn the volume down a little bit and you can also play ALL Sorts of music using ANY "shredder guitar". It is not only for heavy-metal songs. I play U2 music using an EVH Wolfgang Special, and it can be as LOUD as most guitars and it can sound just as beautiful when playing soft music or even the classic blues. It all depends on what you can do with an instrument. As for the "design" or shape of the guitar, it does not matter. God loves all guitar shapes, it is also the reason He made all humans to look different and come in many cool skin colors ! God bless all and Rock on !
Your rendition on that song was nice! I wish (in my bias) most churches/churchgoers were more inclusive on aggressive genres and styles. What matters to me is where your heart is with Christ. I could give christian metal to my mom and she'd still call it devil's music lol! If churches played christian rock and metal for worship nights (non-sunday service) I would love it. Lovely video by the way. I believe each guitar has it's strengths and weaknesses- otherwise everyone would just play one type of guitar for every situation. I believe high output guitars would do great for shreddy-lead and ambient shredding.
Thanks for the kind words, and like you I wish there was a time and space for us metalheads (or ex- or closet metalheads) to gather and appreciate this style of worship together. I have heard of the Metal Mass in Finland and I'm enamoured by the concept.
@@AllAboutWorshipGuitar It's the one in my avatar, 2017 Dinky, quilted maple top in chlorine burst. I put a DiMarzio Fred in the bridge position and added a kill switch, also had it plekd, plays pretty nice!
I have a Purple Jackson dinky I’ve used at church once. So fun! I don’t really do metal things on it but that purple evokes the Royal kingship of our God to me.
I have two USA Select Jackson DK1's with EMG 81/85s as my main guitars. I have e-created a number of the Pod Go patches you and @heyworshipleader have made on YT and I find for the most part, I just need to reduce the amount of gain you guys would normally put on your amp settings to be in line with your sound. (which, your guy's patches are awesome!) The neck pickup provides some very deep tones I use mostly for clean and chimey/ambient sounds.
Those sound like (pun intended) beautiful guitars! Aw thanks for the kind words, to be in the same sentence as Jimmy is such an honour :) Hot pickups get a bad rap in the worship scene. We gotta change that, one guitar at a time!
I have Jackson Virtuoso in "Ocean". Other than the pointy headstock and Floyd Rose, it's not that out there. It sounds great too, I'd rock it in church. It even has coil tap on the selector, so you can get some very not metal tones from it.
Nice! I just used a Majesty for an extended night of worship. Indeed that coil split tone is legit church-ready. The light weight was the selling point for me, being able to stand for 3 hours!
Finaly mann thx (forgot the rr but anyway it sound great) and about your cuestión thats why i wanted some one else play that kind of guitars in this "genre" be cause if i like it it's ok but how is it going to sound on the other hand its my concern
Yeah man I tried asking for the RR but the store was reluctant to bring it down due to how pointy it was. The Kelly just happened to be in store, otherwise I was going to demo two Soloists, haha! I’m going to release a video on using an Ernie Ball Majesty in church, with playing samples from a live worship event. Look out for that too!
