I will not make this video about the Revv Generator 120 MKIII - 10th-anniversary Edition

[@RevvAmps]

Thank goodness that this was not a video about the Generator 120 10th Anniversary edition. There is no way we could sit through more of those killer tones, and amazing features you described ;). Others here have already said it, but you should put out an album with your tracks, that intro F$*king ripped. Thanks Bahd!

[@BigHairyGuitars]

Thanks SO much for being a good sport about the title! The video is about riding the inspiration that a great piece of gear can provide. The video was originally going to be 30 seconds of a tune, then I kept finding new tones that inspired new parts, and kept adding on, then ended up with a 3min tune, and was like, "Well, I guess a video IS happening!"

[@jimdavignon]

I know this is mostly a tone chasing channel and I love that, but Michael needs more props for his actual playing. Chops and versatility, in both rhythm and lead playing, are outstanding. He's a super player on it's own.

[@SolarWarden88]

💯 I was just gonna post, like damn bro, your playing is so underrated lol

[@petemitchell6449]

Dude has gear and knows how to use it! His playing is really good..

[@user-mr6vv1bk5k]

ya man

[@user-mr6vv1bk5k]

Unfortunately, now, in 00's guitar-based music is not so popular, so it's wery hard to became famous just using talents. To became famous guitarist you also need very powerfull advertising... It's so sad... @@SolarWarden88

[@Mossy5150]

"Alexa, shuffle songs by Michael Nielsen" and then get ready to have your ears melt...

[@theprisonier]

KZbin is too small for Michael Nielsen !!!

[@evan2757]

Damn man, that opening song is freaking killer! Please drop an album already 🤟

[@ianfurqueron5850]

Yeah... he should write instrumental music for living... oh wait... 🙃 But I agree... a CD release of some of these songs would be awesome.

[@caseylockwood5512]

2:47 I had another tab open, applying for jobs and eating breakfast while I listened. But then this part happened, and it completely stole my attention mid-application. Damn Michael, you cooked with this one!

[@gr070491]

The opening track is pure perfection: the perfect balance between a perfect circle and alter bridge❤

[@Wyldwulf]

New Order vibes out the gate...then went metal. Someone needs a full album. I'd listen to this all day.

[@ShawnTubbs]

Killer playing and writing Michael!

[@MercutioUK2006]

If you released an album's worth of tunes, I'm sure it would sell.......the intro songs are AWESOME.

[@jayl5941]

Holy crap what a composition that was!! Everything including the guitar, bass, drums, and the dynamics in that tune. Really impressive.

[@marmaladecreammedia]

Absolutely killer intro. Playing, composition, tones, mixing, it's all there!

[@user-mr6vv1bk5k]

It’s so nice to see a person who plays perfectly and also knows how to use equipment, it’s something like a utopia... It saddens me to think that few people know about you, and those who know you are mostly avid guitarists. However, this is not so bad, because if you were famous, you would not have time to create such good videos, I think. You know all this stuff: national tours, interviews and stuff like that. In any case, thank you for the wonderful material, glad to see you in good health!

[@jimmcdougall9973]

Michael is better known than you think. Together with his musical partner, they do a lot of soundtracks for games, film etc. but yes, he truly is a great guitarist and very inspirational.

[@NikolajChristensen]

Never was about the amp. How can it be after that FANFOOKINGTASTIC intro. Seriously. That was next level.

[@RabihSaadguitars]

Your compositions and playing are to the roof Michael. Seriously brother you should release an album with all these Reviews playing videos.

[@dougfa3515]

Well, as long as you’re not making this video about the Revv Generator 120 MkIII 10th Anniversary Edition, I am definitely gonna watch!

[@6Stringers]

That intro blew my hair off! Fortunately, I keep my feathers numbered for just such an occasion............................ Great vid! love Revv's stuff

[@RevvAmps]

Who gives a shit about the rest of the info on the amp, put the first 5 min on repeat.....let's go.

[@SapperRJMorgan]

Honestly one of my favorite musicians on KZbin. Thank you Michael. I’m one happy Canadian. I also love my REVV gear.

[@bryanfarless9579]

That was absolutely, by far, incredible. I fell into a dream and saw inspiration.

[@MKRISING75]

The song was incredible it’s the best instrumental song of the year and next year also 🤟🏻💰

[@christopheranderson2158]

That intro tune gave me goosebumps. Congrats, Michael......that rarely happens to me with most modern music.......seriously cool! 🤘🤘

[@beargonefission6160]

Best long cold open ever!

[@gspit391]

that "kids in the hall" thing at the end of the video made me spit out my beer. F'n funny.😂

[@BigHairyGuitars]

I wasn't sure if anyone would even know what that reference was! 🤣

[@gspit391]

prince geoge bc

[@gspit391]

Canadian to the core!!!!!!@@BigHairyGuitars

[@monkeymonk4082]

that intro was a technique lesson. your composition has nice contrast and surprise...y'know like music is supposed to be, not just technique. im def stealing/picking up some of those transitions though. it's time to make an album if you haven't already started.

[@BigHairyGuitars]

That's a lovely compliment! Thanks so much!

[@monkeymonk4082]

it is a compliment, it's also an objectivly critical observation.

[@Manley156]

Michael, you've been going super saiyan as of late man

[@johanaavit]

My wife usually don't care when i watch demos, but now she demands that your release the intro song. She wants it on her playlist.

[@BigHairyGuitars]

Wow! Thanks!!!!

[@artysanmobile]

You reveal some major compositional brilliance in everything you play. Not just on occasion, I hear the roots of songwriting everywhere in your playing. Have you ever been interested in working with a singer? Your ideas are very lyrical and if you found someone who hears your muse, it can mean relating to a lot much wider audience.

[@ianmacneil556]

That was great for the music alone!

[@Billywagner22]

Great tones and playing. I’m a diehard Orioles fan. Cya in the World Series Boi!!!!!

[@marconati3132]

Mr. Nielsen this song is a Masterclass in every aspect of all the processes!! From composition to mastering. And playing is top notch too! Congratulations!

[@jimmcdougall9973]

Great into. I could put that on replay for hours.

[@jmp-es1gv]

Only got one complaint - get the angle of the neck sorted so we can see your fretting hand clearly - awesome tones , tune and chops ! Fkn 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

[@metaltheater1239]

That intro was killer sounding😎🤘🤘

[@PerfectCircle91]

That intro brother is like a beautiful marriage between your own style and A Perfect Circle. Billy Howerdel and the Mer De Noms record are HUGE influences on me and made me practice that much harder as youngster. You RIP michael and as everyone already said I'd buy your album in a second dude.

[@wadekresak2149]

Hitting those GLynch tones. I miss fun players that you represent well. ❤

[@joukovaananen5951]

Killer tune & tones!! Audience wants a Michael Nielsen solo album and live gigs!! 🤟

[@liamkirkby6463]

Huge tone, absolutely ripping 🔥

[@colejustesen]

That intro song was absolutely incredible! Bravo!

[@firststep7750]

So I was doing work whilst listening to this in the background and never switched to youtube quicker in my life - 9:50 :)

[@BradRocker]

Sounds truly Killer .....love that zuta phaser too.

[@user-bj7gy3ul9o]

Michael Nielsen with Puerto Rican heritage. that's awesome! Please do a Spanish language video y a Comer chicharrones todo El Mundo con LA Abuela! saludos desde PR

[@HughJassill]

That intro was incredible

[@juhalehtonen9000]

That opening song and the tones...easily my favorite youtuber

[@TavaresProject]

Michael....sick sick song!!!! Amazing production. Great solos

[@wakjob961]

Damn that amp sounds nice. Great video. Thanks for not demoing it.

[@joewolf-xq7lv]

I digg this !!!!!! Love my g3 pedal run thrue my clean chan on my marshall. It just rips. Great demo and song ...beautifull !!!!

[@colinrobertson4569]

Man these opening tracks are killer. And as said previously, what about those chops 🤘🤘

[@pbgas3434]

I will not watch this.....oh wait.....damn you Mike....but....thank you! Amazing job as always!

[@petemitchell6449]

I wish i had 1/16 of your talent and gear! Well Done! I look forward to your videos... PM

[@shovington67]

Ok. We've had a difference of opinions before. But this time we're on the same page. I've got serial number 00014. It took me a long time to save up for a new amp.... long time. I was ready to buy the regular Generator 120, but I had a delightful talk with Derek, and I bought the 10th Anniversary instead. I'm really pleased. I fully believe it will be my last amp (pushing 60), and my money is going to purchase EL34 & 12AX7 tubes, before they stop making them. Great video....

[@PistolsPlayground]

Damn Michael, your playing is amazing. Taste, tone, chops, and making everything fit flawlessly to serve the song. You are truly an outstanding musician, I'm always impressed by the songs you craft for your demo videos.

[@ikestoddard2458]

Thanks for making this kind of video. It’s more than a simple playthrough, and better than a “inside the mix” demo. I agree about the sound of the amp, and the modes. Fun!

[@davidjoel111]

An amp that sounds like mofongo with chicharrones is up my alley 🇵🇷

[@BigHairyGuitars]

🤘😆🤣

[@GSN1972]

You’re the reason I have my Runt 50 & Friedman 4x12. Love your demos, best of the best. Your compositions are unbelievable. I already have the Generator 120-3a & Revv 4x12, coincidentally, in Bronco Black🤘bad enough wanting everything you review 😂 Would love a 10th Anniversary🙏 REVVRULES🤘🤘🤘

[@fabienbourdier9847]

Loved the intro, killer toan and playing, thinking about this amp for my first real big boi

[@luminoxx5150]

Impeccable phrasing and rhythm!

[@trevorstine5732]

That intro is awesome man

[@Dave_Sacca]

Another great intro song

[@Twobarpsi]

That intro was killer man 🤘🤘🤘!!

[@mercery13]

Your music is amazing. We need more! 🤘

[@toddcralley7015]

Bro!!! Nice job. You can play and it was a joy to hear you. Nicely done. You are truly blessed.

[@kevinmiracle8233]

i went back and listened to the 5 minute of self indulgent guitar fun! ;)

[@michaeltoren]

That intro!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@skipneumann1]

Such creativity and originality is so cool! Love the piece

[@TONEWARSgearshow]

DUUUUUUUUUDE, that intro was SICK!

[@BCyr1991]

Wait a minute. This head has already been crushed!

[@LeonTodd]

02:40 - BRO!

[@tomford8286]

Awesome intro song!!!

[@nohjoh08]

Well, shoot! I guess I need to buy this particular product(s). Generator 120. Lollar imperial. Greenback. Etc. oh. That gate. Sheeeeeeesh. 🙌

[@BigHairyGuitars]

If you move closer, we can share!

[@Mossy5150]

Cinematic as fuck. When are you going to do a major motion picture soundtrack? I feel like you should work with Hans on Dune 3

[@coreybray9834]

Awesome intro, loved it!

[@RiffsAndBeards]

What amp did you use? Was it the one behind you? What is it?

[@BigHairyGuitars]

YO! I had just recorded something like five 100w amp demos in a row, and thought, I can't do another one. So I was trying to make this a not amp video, which I failed miserably, and ended up just making an amp video that is weird. Revv Generator 120 MKIII - 10th-anniversary Edition was everything in the video. it's pretty dope. Have you tried that one? It's my first time trying REVV stuff. I know I've seen them on your channel and Robert Baker's and they've always sounded cool. They have a distinct personality to my ear. Pretttttty. pretttaaaaay good.

[@francescomainino8320]

Man, kick ass piece of Music! 🔥

[@LucasLeCompteMusic]

7:10 is the best part of the video.

[@SwinginBluesTube]

Wow that was kick ass

[@jasonstone1046]

Man, hurry up and release a feckin album or something. Killer intro track.

[@bonerhed]

Had to watch that lick at 2:47 more times that I watch Phoebe Cates coming out of the pool back in the day! 🔥🔥🔥Great sounding amp. "Greater" playing.

[@dalepiwek]

Killer man and like i said in buddys comment i find your tone trustworthy 😂😂🤘so thanks. I wanna send u an old amp i customized some day. For the honesty

[@jasonleib4840]

Holy crap. This was incredible! Nice job, man.

[@hv3459]

So when are we getting an album of your music? The intro kicked ass!

[@Stereostupid]

You always have fantastic melodic lines ,great tracks and riffs ! your chops on this really showcase that fire within!

[@vincenttaylor9691]

Amazing playing man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@gsauce132able]

Awesome music intro! F***ing drums sound monstrous and huge! Where did you get the drum tracks from? I just put together a DAW system and looking for heavy drums. Love the guitar playing! That Shabat is awesome, I'm jealous.

[@laufonseca4444]

Great song! You should make a tutorial vídeo while you record and mix. Keep rockin'. Also... the amp sounds wonderfull but that bass tone is just superb and gives a weight to the song that is just fantastic.

[@DavidLee07]

Michael Nielsen, COMPOSER who plays killer guitar.

[@b.scottfarthingsworth]

FUCKIN YIPES! Holy Jeeziss on a Big Wheel that was huge. Not only is the tone[s] insane, bro your playing and composition... just frikkin beyondo stellar. Thank you for what you do for our ears and brains. Well aside from you bringing us the Samsquantch huevos and Chicharrones, it's REVV that gets the award here. Now I have to sell 20 amps ffs dangit. Thank you Sir.

[@basilevse]

great intro very !

[@tah5w]

Super awesome track man

[@marcusware4586]

EPIC open!!!! 🤘🤘🤘🤘

[@OUTTATIMEMTL]

That amp is a canadian thing!!

[@AlbertoBarrero1]

Absolutely Killer man !!

[@MarkKirbyMusic]

Dude- Awesome video, Michael! Epic intro song reminded of Alter Bridge, which always a good thing. The “gate business” is always a good investment, IMO. Halo rules, is it in the effects loop? Or, after the speaker 🔈?? I’ve been experimenting with doing that lately to get a “stereo out” into my interface. Cheers!

[@BigHairyGuitars]

It was in front. All of the FX were in line going into the input of the amp. It's just how my pedalboard was set up at the moment. The more stereo FX were added in the DAW when mixing.

[@MarkKirbyMusic]

@@BigHairyGuitars oh, OK I just re-watched it. Yeah the clean sound with the halo in front of amp makes sense 👍🏼

[@michaelgeeves3026]

Great video and killer playing! Love Revv Amps!!

[@botisi]

Chicharrones 😂😂 hi from 🇵🇷 You killed with that intro brother!

[@OnfloorAudio]

Killer sounds Killer playing Killer Video 👍🏼

Hey man sounds great!!! Love your videos, dude!!!

Thanks Benson!

Bori ese intro estaba por la maseta 🔥🔥🔥

[@EdwardYasko]

Holy shit that tune fucking rocks!

[@TheOtherJohnBrowne]

WOW!

[@sonicfrog1]

Hi Michael, excellent intro song once again! Pleeeeease, set up a gofund me or something of that nature for preorder for an actual CD or album release of your material. All of these demo songs you are putting out to review gear are easily an album's worth of great content! Not just noodling around, "look at how good I am" guitar instrumentals like 95% of what's out there, but real deal superb songs! I think your disc would EASILY fit right next to Surfing with the Alien, Blow BY Blow, Passion & Warfare, Ah Via Musicom, EE Ticket, etc. you know the level of musicianship here. Please... you have 40k+ subscribers, I would be willing to bet, 10% of them at least would buy an actual CD. Thanks again for the great MUSICAL song! (and the review too.) :)
