Just my 2 cents, I think the Stiletto sounds more like a JCM 800 when it's set to Tight gain.

Then its not a 150 dollar bass

MESA NOMAD is also Hated. I always get the 100 with the 5 band EQ. Those amps are very interactive, and with just slight attenuation of any knob changes the tone structure alot. Lots of Mark tones can be had as well as cleaner Black face tones. Tweaking the controls is very rewarding, and experimenting is never ending LOL. I find that my Nomad sounds better through the Mesa 4 x 12 Recto trad cabinet. A Lot of Hate for the Mesa Nomads, but as you said. Use your ears instead of looking where the pots are set at. The Nomads have 3 independent channels with noticeable different modes to switch on each channel like Raw, and Modern, or Vintage. You can a good one with the much needed foot switch for under a $Grand today. Years ago they were selling in the $600.00 to $700.00 range. I love my Mesa Nomad 100 . Thanks for the great Vid

Man, that thing chirps with the volume and tone pushed! I agree, it’s cool on the Marshall for a little push but got weird on the higher gain stuff.

13:29 can you give away this to me i have a dream to become a guitarist but can't have money to buy guitar

No pickup selector switch?

did you use the stock strings or change them to something else? cause the stock strings are better for playing in C-B standard or Drop A#-A. Using those stock strings to go down to Drop G is like using 9s on a 25.5" scale guitar to reach Drop C. you can do it, but the low string is going to be very tubby. also locking tuners would've been a better call. it's just one of those minor gripes that's no more than a $100 fix

How has the tuning stability been after play sessions?

What tuning were you doing the demos in ?

Those red pickups are horrific looking.

Stop multicaming. Breath more. Eyebrows are amazing. Playing is even better.

👍👍👍

They made Les Paul Traditionals in 2020? I thought that model was discontinued with the introduction of the new 2019 Standards.

Love this 👍🎶😀

Very Nice vídeo continue, thanks for share !

Cool demo 👍 picked up one of these Mustaine Flying Vs in Natural back a couple months ago… it came with dark grey hardware not the black. Looks like they’ve made a few changes recently. Cheers 🍻

The new Schaller S-Locks are junk....

Epiphone over Gibson and all day long

The gem there is your Fender Highway One

Wow that 1965 Gibson is so beautiful your dad had good taste

I think your 50's Baja telecaster is my favorite one.... especially after all the mods you did to it. Hipshot drop D tuner on the low E string/ banjo drop tuners on the high E and A strings/Hipshot open back locking tuners on the rest/brass roller nut/strap pull double B/G Bender/reversed the control plate and added a 1000k linear volume pot..... better for volume swells/6 saddle Wilkinson bridge/ brass saddles on the high E and B strings/steel saddles on the G and D strings and aluminum saddles on the low E and A strings. Looks like you set it up to emulate a pedal steel guitar' to get a PSG guitar sound.

That IR sounds pretty damn good, even simply coming out of this iPad I’m on atm 🤙 I have 4 amps, 3 tube amps and a Spark anyhow one is a Friedman Dirty Shirley and it sounds really good. Mine is going into an older 2 x 12 Tone Tubby cab and it’s my go to when I am looking for a more crunch sound. Thanks for sharing 🤙

Hello Mike and Merry Christmas. First time I stumbled across your channel and I’ve got to say you have an awesome collection, I love Gibsons as well and thanks for sharing 🤟

Great video!

That L-5 is gorgeous! I am fortunate enough to be the caretaker of my wife's 1962 ES 175 that she inherited from her dad and I try and play it a little every day. I also have a 1967 ES 330, which is my favorite, I got it in 1978 and it is the one I have owned the longest. My next oldest is my 1976 Les Paul Deluxe, which I acquired in 1980, and was my main gigging guitar for decades. Plays and sounds like a dream, but it's almost 12 lbs so I retired it from gigging for the sake of my back. Curious how heavy your 1979 is, the Norlin era guitars are often pretty heavy, but I think they play and sound fantastic.

The Wolfgang toggle switch isn't wired backwards, that's how Eddie preferred his.

L5 is lovely 🤙🏻

If you play with just a guitar and amp then each is one half your sound. Both items are relatively pricey. With just one in comparison cheap pedal, that pedal becomes one third your sound. It is what makes pedal amazing. In short it means we all can make a major change in our sound at a totally affordable price. I would love to see more pedals on the show.

This sounds fantastic. I keep bouncing between getting IR-X or IR-D. As soon as I think I have my mind made up someone puts out a killer new demo like this. 😂🤘

Have an Gibson SGJ Fire burst fully stock as my first guitar this year and it's been great! Nice video!♥

The Duncan Thrash Factor are clearly hotter and brighter. I think the difference would have less obsvious with the burstbuckers in the Mustaine V with the longer scale length. Do you know if the Flying V has 300k pots? it sounds very dark even for burstbuckers.

What tuners did you use and were they direct drop ins with no drilling of mounting holes besides the use of the original adapters?

the most important is the pickup alnico 5 does it

Hi, this is a great pedal and the best sound I've ever had in a pedalboard format. I use it with an HX One with effects in front of and after the Friedman and then a GFI Specular-tempus, just three pedals and I have the best sound I've ever had. By the way, I also have a Quad Cortex and I like it, but the Friedman is much more real, direct and easy to use.

Jesus, that Marshall sound AMAZING!!!!

The tones you got out of that thing sound great!

I was googling Stilettos since I saw one yelling my name locally. Glad to meke it & excellent vid.

I added a Fender HiMass and active EMG pickups to my Fender Jazz V string. The HiMass added a considerable amount of sustain, especially the low B, and it feels less floppy. I wired the EMGs to the 18 volt config and routed the back for a dual 9 volt battery compartment. The pickups are dead quiet and have much more output and tonal options. I spent about $275 and am very happy with the results. I did end up adding an abalone looking pickguard and chrome/abalone knobs which look really good. The pickguard and knobs were not included in the $275.

Needed a different song version on your demo. You played the same thing. Hard to get the difference.

Another great video. As a fan and owner of Tele’s and LP Juniors this model just spoke to me. Definitely quirky but a solid piece!

Love it!!

Just ordered one 😅

Great guitar, excellent tone. Very nice work my man!

If you would demo the pedals without a mix, it would be more relatable to most people since we are just trying to hear what the pedal sounds like by itself

I put a pickguard on my 2014 LPJ to keep the finish looking good. Also I put a Les Paul signature truss rod cover on it cause every Les Paul should have his name on it

It's a pretty good SOUNDING amp, but at 120 watts it's incredibly quiet until you get to 7-8 on the volume with a full band unless you have a kitten for a drummer.

The 24 fret, 24-3/4” guitars that Gibson makes definitely seem…strange. We had an SG Modern with the same configuration and it felt…strange. Love a nice cheap Gibson beater though. Cool guitar!

You don't know how to use a pair of channel lock pliers? I pity you

why not the whole bridge? gives you 3 tuning options no?

Waiting for a Standard 50s in Sparkling Burgundy to arrive at the moment. Couldn’t find a single dealer in Australia who had one in stock, so had to take a chance buying unseen, which is a bit scary at this price point. Fingers crossed. Should have it in a week or two.
