Glenn doesn't scream at you. He just talks like there's music playing in the background.

[@Paultreat]

🤣Yes When you talk to Glen it´s allways like a meeting in a concert😂 I only met him once - by coincidense, he wasn´t that famous. He allways has a lot to tell and he has allways the eager to spreat good emotions when he feels right! He is a great guy to have around, and he is a honist person!

[@TobyKBTY]

After being lucky enough to own some of my dream amps so far (a 5150, a recto, a Rockerverb, an EVH) and using them through the same cab (trusty closed back Orange 2x12) and same overdrives, I've also come to the conclusion many of these amps can sound similar or you can get them to sound the same. Not to say that's a bad thing, they aren't bad sounds by any means. They sound massive and incredible. But when you put them through a mic or IR or have them blasting beside a drummer, those individual differences don't seem to matter in the big picture. With that said, I'm still totally buying a good amp on a good deal when they pop up lmao

[@jcugnoni]

I love how honest both of you are. Just real dudes living their passion. That's why so many people feel that you are their buddies even if we nether met!

First lets recover from this bombastic Episode!

[@thirteenthandy]

That Stevie T comment has my jaw on the floor. I can't believe he doesn't have amps!

[@EveReznor]

I think Steve has 2 small amps, which one of it is NUX lite and that's it. He does everything via Scarlett and amp sims. Tbh a lot more comfortable imo. Myself I have one small amp and I don't even use it that much, I play guitar via audio interface and DAW and so far it's enough. Glenn is really cool tho for telling truth about the gear and always being honest about that that high price not always means best :D

[@greekfreak1980]

Nita Strauss even doesn't use a proper amp anymore when she's touring with Alice Cooper, she just plugs her multi-effects unit into the venue's P.A. system and gets the job done.

[@thirteenthandy]

@@greekfreak1980 That's very common these days. Kiko was using a Quad Cortex on his last Megadeth tour, for example. That doesn't mean Nita (or Kiko for that matter) doesn't own an amp or have experience playing through one. I was shocked that Stevie T doesn't even have one.

[@MikaTarkela]

Plini has also stated that he started with plugins. Just a different way.

Picked up Hesu Demons for a 4x12 Cab I'm building not long ago. While working on getting the 4x12 done I put one of the Hesu speakers into a 2x12 I built combined with a Celestion Creamback Neo to test them out. Using a Peavey 6505+ 112 (I converted to a head) through the 2x12 all I can say is I am very much in love with the Hesu Demon speakers. They are amazing with the Creamback Neo's and by themselves. Can't wait to get my 4x12 finished and have them cranked. Thanks Glen and Ola for always giving us a leg up in finding our sound.

[@ossieguitarchannel2717]

Glenns video "stop holding yourself back" about recording without huge budget was mindblowing to me. I have great gear and made some great recordings with it. Thank you so much Glenn you're the best

[@denniskielton2447]

EDIT: 2006-2009 or so is what I call the "hardcore heyday." there were like 7-8 venues in my area doing shows every weekend, I saw both Animals as Leaders, Bring me The Horizon, & The Devil Wears Prada at local venues, both before they got huge, along with a ton of others that were already huge touring bands, it was insane. Now- That 'don't assume your amp is holding you back" is assuming a LOT haha. How about the kids going through tiny spiders and fender modeling amps meant for beginners, could you make a pro record with those? P.s. this is why I tell all my students to either get a modeling pedalboard like a pod go or something that's the same price as those "cheap" amps, they just need a speaker to put them through. And if they already own a computer (which is only 3 out of 23 current students) I tell them to get an interface and free amp sims liek the ones Glenn recommends. But a LOT of kids are stuck in that rut because their parents were sold on some cheap fender practice amp that has a bad clean tone and minimal, VERY harsh sounding overdrive that you can only control by pushing a little white button. I have several students using these (or for bass, fender rumbles, which sound like 50's amps because they essentially are) just because that's what their parents got them. I'd say for a lot of them, the advanced ones and fast learners, that their amps are for SURE holding them back lol. just a bit of my real world experience being a full time guitar teacher, for the last 15 years.
