My Best Lead Tone for Sustain and Feedback with the Helix

[@kimipaunonen]

We NEED this in the folder ❤️

[@bogse]

What does this folder mean? Why dont he put this to Line 6 Customtones?

[@umatgeratonleik2584]

I don't know if you've noticed yourself, but I've watched a lot of your older videos, and it's really clear to me that you're advancing a lot year by year. I mean, you might be becoming one of my favourite guitarists alive today

[@tonyleeglenn]

I think he’s the new Eric Johnson.

[@sobellfanatic]

@@tonyleeglenn The Old Eric Johnson is Joe Bonamassa 🤣😂

[@tonyleeglenn]

@@sobellfanatic Ha good one. I honestly don’t think Joe has ever gotten as close as JCord.

[@jackprice7828]

I listen to John more than any other guitarist on KZbin. He inspires, teaches, and brings honest opinions

[@descendre]

Pretty awesome tone! I love how your lines blossom into feedback.

[@timothy5974]

I agree. Coming to this channel more to watch his playing and phrasing. I’m growing fond of that guitar as well.

[@jakollee]

Glorious! You were burning up the fretboard! Would love to hear this tone with a bridge humbucker.

[@thehumblepundit9790]

Here's what's interesting to me. I click on your videos immediately. I don't even look at the title. As soon as you start playing, I can tell which vids have a Fractal in it, and which don't. I love your playing style and the percussive nature of the Fractal modelling is really evident in the way you play. In a great way. Somehow, you are able to really bring out that articulating nature of how Fractal does its thing. Very cool. Love your channel!

[@reesehaller4085]

Holy cow that patch sounds incredible! Love the playing!

[@JUN01985]

Yes drop it in please! My apartment neighbors are going to love this tone when I get home from work ha

[@blessedheavyelements8544]

Always good to see your videos in my feed Sir. Best Regards as always!

[@naptownbucks]

Amazing playing and incredible tones. Purchased your Helix patches! Keep up the amazing work!

[@sickness170]

Drop that god damm tone. Thanks for everything you do 😎🤘

[@jessenicholson1777]

Wow. That was killer. I love how the lower gain version of this sounds but this kind of proves that more is more.

[@mickctout]

Wow Johnnathan, your style strikes me and other!! As one of these talented musicians: Frank Gambale, Allan Holdworth and Eric Johnson and i love them soo. GO ON, You have so much talent!!!!

[@georgeespia334]

Smooth playing.

[@elkuervojuarez1890]

Love that ... its like classy shred.. its exactly what eludes me. I can only shred . From the archives of a simple metal head

[@Steve--RR666]

Thanks For leaving the Garro patch in the folder JC Seen the man perform many times in his home town

[@groovecartell]

Your playing is stunning mate.

[@BrianVallotton]

Thanks Johnathan! You are an inspiration to so many of us. Please keep up your great work. God bless.

[@filthyrich93]

Thanks for this preset. I was using it for 2 hours yesterday and I love it. It is one of the best sounding preset every. Thanks again and keep up the great work.

[@chenko5729]

Sorry man, Where do I can find this preset? Thanks

[@Caitanya2001]

Absolutaly in the folder!! This is a great lead tone, thanks man!

[@Tamayopdx]

Dang that first lick it’s fire

[@MattMcEwen]

Some of your best playing! Absolutely ripping 🤘🤘

[@LS-qw6xq]

Your channel deserves way more subs! Really appreciate your awesome vids.

[@nicolasperezorona4745]

Your tone is better every single day

[@samb2538]

I would love that tone to appear in the Helix folder too please John, sounds great!

[@MarkSchuster-ym3iy]

John that’s soooo good.

[@mgie22]

Very creative, glad to see some tweaks to something that was already great.

[@michaelpurdy9165]

Fantastic vid john, you’re a very polished player.

[@mq8dj22000]

That is the coolest thing I have ever seen for the Helen!,,

[@pvdmac]

What an amazing talent you have…Your guitar playing is outrageous……any budding guitarist should watch your videos…and if that doesn’t inspire them…they should use their guitar as a tennis racquet

[@jackprice7828]

John I love this feedback and high gain lead tone. Incredible! Something I have been experimenting with lately is going back to trying the built in amp/cab models and not using a 3rd party IR. So far I am liking my results with the Matchless 1 with the 2x12 Match cab. I like being able to tweek the cab controls. Also the Litigator and Divide/13 are great as well for a broad range of tones from clean to lead gain.

[@stephenconsello9771]

Of course we want it in the folder, bruv.

[@spiritofatlantis8739]

Sounds fantastic!

[@theericbeaty]

Along the same lines for a feedback effect, have you tried out the Digitech Freqout pedal? I have one and it’s amazing. It would be nice to see if you could come up with a similar effect within Helix.

[@michaelross6311]

Beautiful colours. drop that in the foulder!!

[@AlainChatignon]

Bravo very nice this preset

[@Steelianos]

Hey man. With all the Updates Helix has done, most of these tones sound nothing like they used to. Any tips on tweaking something that will bring the magic back?

[@marksr12]

Nice feedback!

[@israelr6636]

EPIC sounds!!

[@bobbysbackingtracks]

Love it bro..... I wanna give you some backingtracks 🙏❤️😊

[@chrisfunkmagic]

Would love the patch!!!! I think it would sound amazing with my new Suhr Roughneck!!!!

[@johnnathancordy]

FOLDAH?! Have you been snooping on my personal chats...

[@nicktshredz]

Amazing as always John, I've been putting off getting into your tones folder for a year. Looks like I'll bite. Out of curiosity: do you make your own tracks or do you use tracks from others? I'm always impressed by the mix of your intro jams. Thanks!

[@ksharpe10]

He makes up Most all of his backing tracks, he will point it out if he used someone else's.

[@jerryreff1857]

Great patch! What is the name of this patch if I wanted to buy it? You have REALLY mastered the technique of Eric Johnson

[@mundorocanrola]

Hi John ! I own a Quad Cortex and I have been trying to find something similar to this preset (Sustain and Feedback); could you please review or show / Share if it's possible over the QC. This will be appreciated so much ! Thank you !

[@MajorUpgrade]

Reminded me of Steve Vai in the opening jam.

[@fcallari581]

This tone! What else...

[@ranepoppa6654]

Please add this to the folder!

[@thomasmoore3822]

can you do a pod go version and put it in the folder. thanks

[@Islandsoundzz]

This guitar and the patch sounds outstanding. Out of curiosity, is the pickguard on this guitar a standard pickguard that's easily replaceable with others from fender or emg?

[@johnnathancordy]

Not too sure I'm afraid chap sorry!! Sort of looks like it might be?

[@jackarcher_]

They definitely sell tortoise shell pickguard for fender and I would have to believe emg too

[@botulandia]

Please, where and how can we get that patch? TYA

[@ToneChaser2001]

Killer tone. How does it handle buckers?

[@FelixHunte]

Excellent playing! Do you have an insight when Sire will release this color variant (I assume it’s the existing vintage model)?

[@johnnathancordy]

Hey Felix, I actually have no idea, it's the Vintage model, but I specifically requested this colour - not sure if they ever plan to make it available on the Vintage model, but it might not hurt to ask?

can we make feedback with headphones??

[@KeithShelley1]

I'm sure I've asked you a dozen times but what studio monitors do you use? Also, it looks like you run your Stomp into an interface instead of USB. Do you notice a difference?

[@johnnathancordy]

Hey Keith, still using JBL LSR305 - I don't notice any difference except I don't have to keep plugging/unplugging USBs etc and resetting DAW when I change devices - it's way more practical for me to just have a normal interface
