This is probably the oldest video I’ve watched on KZbin and it’s exactly what I was wanting to learn. You even had a radon ebook back in 2007! Hats off to you and thanks for the video

Blocked my trem but I'm still down diving, bro!🤙

Im glad I found this again almost lost it .

All these years later, i keep coming back to here bob rocking out 🤘

Bret the Hitman Hart on guitar ladies and gentlemen!

What's up, Bob?

Absolutely killed it! Rock on 🤘🏼

Best stage performance I can always appreciate:)

In the almost decade since I watched this series… I’ve advanced FAR BEYOND my expectations. I’v almost “mastered” the fret board, I’m recording studio tracks, playing in a professional band and I’m now teaching lessons on what you taught me. Horns up to you RLM for being my first “modes” instructor.

This is so simple and so good. Thumbs up right away for the silverburst.

This is just superstition , does not have any scientific backing .

Block = metal Body = wood Wood block, metal block =no difference. I've tried both

buen dia compa saludos desde Peru, dios te bendiga cuidate y te deseo mucha salud en estos tiempos dificiles, trabajo en el hospital y esto se esta poniendo triste, pero a levantar cabeza.. no hay mal que dure mil años.. saludos!! te seguire!! crees que puedes hacer lo mismo? sigamos creciendo y muchos exitos en tu canal.

When you zoom out and look at EVERYTHING in your signal chain that creates tone, (especially overdriven or distorted tone) from your pick selection to your speakers, body wood of a guitar accounts for maybe 2% in tone. Neck material and the shape and thickness of the neck along with fretboard material, and the way the neck is attached to the body (bolt on, set/glued, neck through) makes a bigger effect than body wood.

Just the tip. That’s what she said. 😂

Psa!... my dad <nameless> says u r the best pos! (Haha) he's ever had to hold up during a solo! However during that solo u ever the best hes seen... haha ty bob

You are wrong about using metal is the best for blocking, wood is the best.. that metal is always makes a tang sound

How the hell did I end up here?

Useless video.. wtf im here..urgh

I got your 3 core elements hanging brother... Looky here... You need to put the bass on about... 5... Then put the midrange on about... 5... Then put the treble on about... 5...

Anyone who has to block their trem either needs to learn how to properly set it up or should just get a gutiar with a hardtail bridge. It's not rocket science , if floting trems didn't work they would have quit making them years ago

what about Agathis wood?

I can play that.

Wow, you're making dumbasses mess up their guitar There are plenty of trem stabilizers that you can choose from that won't jack up anything and the best part is that ....... IT'S DONE RIGHT

Hey man, it's cool to hear your voice again...

Depends on what style of music you play

you are teaching the modes wrong.

A small metal dowel can be used in a device that costs maybe $3 to make and install in 10 minutes .... that will not prevent dive bombing, but will let a Strat maintain bridge bottom parallel to the top ('float') . No wood or metal block is needed at all and my device is fully adjustable and removable easily. I cannot see how to attach a photo that shows it here.

This one is still better kzbin.info/www/bejne/qIW6kGiOeMSKe9k

If tonewood has an impact on tone it is thanks to one mechanical property : speed of vibration's transmission through wood. The faster the velocity is, the more vibrations you'll get, and also the more you'll get high vibrations (call it brightness). There's no magic into that, just mechanical physic. - It is known that a same variety of wood can have different vibration velocity. - It is known that different varieties of wood can have the same vibration velocity. - It is known that density does not make all about vibration velocity. Grain architecture is very impacting. For instance some very good Douglas fir can have a faster velocity than weak (often figured) Maple, though Douglas density is less dense than Maple. This architecture can be read thanks to tree rings : the closer they are from each other, the faster velocity will be. That's why violin are made with very close tree rings and cellos with more spaced tree rings : violin need to be bright and cellos to be bassy. Plus, the main part of an electric guitar that may impact strings vibrations is the neck. Put a great neck on an average body and you'll get a great sounding instrument, do the opposite and you'll get an average one. Average or fast velocity woods doesn't matter much for the body, but it has a big impact when used for the neck. The whole story is all about finding the required velocity for the neck. You want a bright sounding guitar ? Use a fast velocity wood thanks to close tree rings. You want a warm sounding one ? Use a lower velocity thanks to more spaced tree rings. There you got your "tonewood secret". All the rest is made of lies to make you pay a lot for paranormal bullshit.

What happen to the recording quality? I will have to look for another copy of your video.

Rob Van Dam plays guitar???? Wtf!!!

This locking type restring windings is bs.. I beat the shit out my guitar and still out of tune.

why block :(

Great video. Also having a steep roof pitch that I dont feel comfortable climbing onto, it looks like that Kozy Kollar is the way to go

"SRV did it, therefore I must do it too"

Being that you went through the garage, shouldn't there be some type of fire block or collar? I thought also there should be fire walling material. I'm not saying what you did was wrong, I'm more into the learning stages here.

Glad Your Back, Bob... I chase tone (not as wildly any more~) > comment continue's via email

thanx bro

fucking legend. killed it, w no effort. good shit, bruv. loved it

Thanks for making the video buddy. I'm about to install my system but I got 4" pipes as I assume it would be better ,especially using a larger fan? Checking with a radon monitor the garage I found high reads (not sure if the monitor picks up fuel fumes as radon). Reads are higher than the basement which is odd to me. So I thought fitting a pipe from the basement up as you did, then instead of vertical into the roof, another split into the garage slab and then vertical pipe up. Does it sound right? Is this flashing safe after years? don't want leaks.... Thanks

I learned this technique once from Glen Tipton myself. It's the best!

Bob is the real deal !!My best bro had lessons from him in the 90s and is one of the best guitarist iv heard though he gave up his passion to play 15 years ago..doesnt matter what rig you put him on a cheap line 6 and a single humbucker 90$ Ibanez he would wale

Wow

did you teach at elmores or florez in Peoria in the 90s man you havnt aged bro you taught my bro Corey Cullen and man he jamed..any advice for getting the tone you have

lol i owe you 50 bucks for that 250r years ago man u jam!

You should have fixed that at 2m39s! But thanks for the great lesson, I'm gonna practice this. Should this be played over a G major chord?

ytf would anyone want to block the tasty goodness that is floyd rose?

Nice viral site.

175 are butthurt they didnt win so they disliked it
