One of the best if not the best instructional videos explaining amp settings and tone that I have seen. Very helpful for all guitarists of any skill level. Thank you!

[@makemelaughaturcommentchal4769]

Thanks so much! My whole guitar life, I just made random settings for gigs I’m so embarrassed!

[@MarkoCoconut]

That's awesome. Thanks for sharing.

i'm not a guitar player but recently was trying to make metal using digital instruments and digital amps, and i never really played with EQ or thought they would affect sounds like they did. when you cut the mids all the way and turned the bass up almost all the way, i thought that was weird, but when the guitar was played to demonstrate the sound, it definitely sounds like the heavy metal tone i know and love so i'll be trying this. thank you!

[@MarkoCoconut]

That's awesome. Yes, frequency is EVERYTHING!!! Thanks for sharing.

Yes, boost pedal is a game changer for metal with lower gain setting to remove fizz on top. Any chinese boost pedal with a noise gate if you can is amazing.

@@MarkoCoconut can you please make a video about the types of Pentatonics as simple as this ( explained in very simple terms )

[@MarkoCoconut]

@@kalyanchakravarthy6999 I'm working on a script specifically for Pentatonics. For now, check out Easy Scales, Easy Lead Guitar and Total Scales, Techniques and Applications. You may find one you really like, or even a little from each title.

Hello sir, a loyal subscriber here.. i observe here that you're using a les paul guitar, but would i still attain the same tones with a Stratocaster with the same amp settings as shown here? Regards

[@MarkoCoconut]

Thank you. Yes and No. A Les Paul uses 2 humbucker pickups, which have an entirely different tone than a Startocaster. While the amp settings may be the same for both guitars, the tone will never be the same. So a blues tone for a Les Paul will be different than a blues tone for a Stratocaster. After time, it just becomes a matter of personal preference.

On the guitar it’s an output on the amp it’s an input the headphone jack is an output as well

[@tarared7668]

My fender amp doesnt have mids, can u explain in a simple term what mids does?

[@dominikwisniewski1818]

I'm gonna try to explain it as simply as possible Treble is the higher pitched end sounds that you hear, so the more you turn that up, the more the treble is emphasised. The higher the pitch that you play, ie, playing down the fretboard closer to the body, the more of treble is emphasised. Bass is the lower pitched end of the sounds, so the more you turn that up, the more of bass that is emphasised. The lower pitch sounds, like those from the low E and A strings, the bass is more emphasised. Middle are the sounds in between treble and bass, the more you turn up middle, the more emphasised it is. So anything in between the bass and treble is the middle. I hope this helps

[@MrEvol94]

you saved the best for last

[@s0fia706]

The amp I'm buying, doesn't have Middle. Is that a big issue if I wanna play rock?

[@MarkoCoconut]

Not really. You can blend the tone with less controls.

[@farzinjavid1513]

what about r&b? or hip hop thats the most popular

[@tiomalendraa]

What amp do you use?

[@MarkoCoconut]

Currently using a Mesa Triple Rectifier. I like Soldano too, but currently don't own one.

[@HengParker.01]

Do you use any effect ?

[@MarkoCoconut]

Just what is built into the amplifier. So a clean channel, a gain channel and reverb.

[@kyenufc4295]
