[@WesHauchAlluvial]

Rob Scallon thanks dude!

[@Rxbandit421]

O my do I smell a rob scallon Wes hauch collab???

[@Rxbandit421]

Wes Hauch O my do I smell a rob scallon Wes hauch collab???

[@shauntayers]

I want that tone to sit on my face...

[@soulfare333]

@DouglasQuade way to come in with your Line 6 Spider and shit on the party fart knocker.

[@thedeathmachine666]

@DouglasQuade I'd slap the shit out of you myself if the internet and this keyboard wasn't in the way

[@tromboneman4517]

There’s more riffs in this song than most bands come up with in their whole careers.

[@jaredt3985]

Music Lover Yeah man I was literally just thinking he could’ve written a whole album out of the riffs in this track. This guy is god tier.

[@isaiahgrandt5305]

Ya don’t have to bash napalm deaths riffs like that

[@Taylorlit]

I aspire to achieve that level of action economy in my playing .

[@tromboneman4517]

Taylor Littlefield, if I was a guitarist, I would too.

[@moimeme7839]

I aspire to stop economy and start spending millions in all sorts of things I do not need just because I want to do so

[@kmhMESA]

One of the cleanest players alive.. or ever.

[@metalheadblues]

Kevin Horne shame only a handful of people know about him

[@richardjewett7702]

When I first started playing.....Everything was pentatonic and it didn't really make sense to me...Then Malmsteen and all the shredders came along in the 80's and that was more "linear" in the approach that I could understand....Then along comes Wes Hauch and blows everything out of the water....It sounds so abstract but so beautiful....It's a whole 'nother level of musicianship.....

[@guitargogden]

Incredible tone and playing as always! Thumbs up if you wanna see Wes rip through Gabrielle!

[@TheMasamir]

Yeah, this would be awesome!

[@mm31740]

Oh yes please 😢

[@MickZarco]

Yes, please!

[@The1stMrJohn]

Yep

[@v.1triol]

Seeing the Gojira shirt. Imagine Joe Duplatier singing on this.... Amazing playing Wes. Love that album so much.

[@WesThrailkill]

that tone is insane

[@TheMurkGaming]

Wes Thrailkill Dude! Your playing and tone is even better! I love your music man.

[@tromboneman4517]

Wes Thrailkill, it would be cool to see you use a seven string. Given how most of your songs explore the entire range of the guitar, you’ll put it to very good use.

[@tylerwells614]

I’m so glad you keep putting shit out! You’re seriously one of the best musicians we have in metal/guitar today. IMO

[@infernapeDLS]

Him and Jason Richardson are definitely the cleanest and most technical players that are out there in the metal scene. Inspiring that humans can attain this level of skill on guitar xD

[@chrispeterson9447]

One of the sickest metal tones I’ve ever heard. I can’t even get my JP2C to sound quite this good.

[@josuastangl7140]

Wow. Putting 7-strings to good use. I *LOVE* the songwriting. Awesome.

[@josuastangl7140]

and it still melts my face

[@josuastangl7140]

I'm still coming back to this

[@getmeouttahere7638]

Wes could get a better tone through a Black & Decker toaster than I could get out of a Mesa amp.

[@skyline6string]

Top-tier. One of the essential guitarists of our time.

[@mrhamburgler480]

Dude Wes has the best picking technique period. No wasted energy, no unnecessary movements. Dude I aspire to achieve this level of technique every day, I've been re-learning guitar with proper technique (especially my picking chops) applied as much as I possible and the changes after 15+ years of playing have been all positive. Have this dude and a video of his I stumbled across four or five years ago to thank for the motivation to put a mountain on the plateau I was walking across stagnantly for years. Cheers man.

[@andounis]

This is probably the best solo I have heard in modern-era metal...

[@ESPSJ]

That solo has got to be one of my absolute favorites all time and I genuinely mean it. The album version sounds really great as does this.

[@noxify5873]

I like listening to both its kinda cool hearing two different flows

[@BrettFairchild]

You're my absolute favorite player and christ this just reinforces that

[@victorgracia4754]

Man, i love you fkn tone, high gain yet smoothie, with no scooped mids. Damn!

[@renanterezan9922]

That was insane. I love that album.

[@GlockenspielSAS]

You're my hero, dude. Outstanding as always!

[@tonoy13]

Dude you are one the best player alive today!! I would love to see more videos from you

[@Metalltool]

Man that tone is crushing! Love it

[@Allyinchains]

No one person on this planet writes music like Wes!

[@Alphonselle]

maaaaaaaaan, been waiting TOO LONG for a wes hauch vid

[@progpogs]

I rewatch this video all the time. The tones you get with your triple crown are inspiring.

[@OldCrawler5]

Bad ass and right to the point. Great tune, awesome tone. More please

[@Deamonition]

Wes is simply the best metal guitarist on the scene right now.

[@MetalxMasters]

Please upload more videos to your channel. We love your playing, tone and music! :D

[@BTL400]

the tone is just amazing! tight playing as expected from you

[@TheGABYSPEED]

Wes!! Your playing style, awesome guitar and song writing are outstanding🤘🏼 Wating for more videos to watch😎 Demasiado Brutal!!!

[@SuperJimic]

A pleasure to watch as always.

[@WholeLottaBulldog]

Wes you are dearly loved boyo

[@gabrielcarbajal9592]

Those pickups sound amazing!

[@dixinears8004]

Sledge and scalpel hands. Mr Hauch is an incredible player! This video is a win for Mesa.

[@robertfalconer5054]

Ive played one of these things, Absolutely awesome.

[@chrisleguen2813]

I just bought one of these amps and I love it, love Wes Hauchs playing, perfect combination, keep pushing the envelope brother 🤘

[@CygnusVoyager]

The girth on that tone... an absolute unit.

[@hakanates1188]

my fav guitarist insane tone and your hands speak! load more man we miss you! \m/

[@FredBrum]

Impeccable!

[@Erock09291]

Love your videos Wes, you're truly an inspiration! Keep rippin 🤘🔥

[@SuperFrenchyboy]

Just like to say Wes...you are inspiring a generation of metal guitarists with your awesome technique and chops

[@Metalltool]

Perfection

[@doomguy1430]

Wes is back !!!!

[@MartinLink]

Best lead tone I've heard in my life

[@noxify5873]

this goes so hard I had to go back and listen to the album version good times back in high school listening to this

[@chilean_metal]

jesus christ man, this is pure art. Greetings from Chile!!!

[@pablomarques4228]

Insane playing!!!

[@dr.toxxxic2159]

nice playthrough!

[@brokenlevelmusic]

Dude amazing tunes, and your playing, c’mon man, buttery!

[@killerratz]

Sick tone!

[@NorthwestGuitarworks]

The world needs more Wes Haunchs to assult our ears with these heavy riffs. Phrasing on the solo is ridiculous

[@andarks5743]

nice wes!!!

[@cliffdexter38]

DAMN.......That was great guitar playing but your brain is even greater. Loved what you played. Thanks

[@azerty1235931]

It's kinda sad that Wes doesn't post on youtube (I know he's more active on FB/Instagram but come on !) He got that tight and dark-themed yet so bluesy style of riffing/soloing, you just can't help but fall in love with his playing For me he's so inspiring, and he's just the best !

[@xthexadvantagex]

That gain is throaty. Like a super gainy and tight jcm almost

[@adammassacre1981]

so tight so clean so nice! \m/

[@CubiCakePvP]

best song from alluvial

[@SeanTenney777]

Damn this is sick. Gotta bust out my Sheet Happens book and start practicing

[@dominumstudio]

Master Blaster!!!

[@MrSleepyj85]

Maaaaan its a new Wes video!!! Fuckin stoked!!

[@teriakamoto]

Totally inspiring. Talented Musician and innovative Guitarist. This piece is cool. Really edgy, yet melodic and his playing is clean, crisp, and articulate. Those Chords ! a lot of feeling to his playing. I wasn't big on this amp first time I heard it, then after a few quality demos it's got to be one of the best Amps out there. If you're not experienced at playing, you could hurt yourself.

[@maler95]

Man.... THAT was bad ass !

[@patrickcombs3067]

Your badass bro , fo sure . Notched at the top 🎸

[@chriskennedy7262]

amazing wes :)

[@mattman1127]

The best in the world

[@hYpYz]

2021...this video still fkn rules !

[@Franq85]

Sick skill, nice video :)

[@flyboymcgee8059]

Great guitar

[@patrickcombs1272]

Jus downrite badass brother✌️

[@IvanVictim]

The master draws with bold strokes

[@ValdirRocha]

Fuderoso!!!

[@tylradm5]

Nice

[@morpheusdokis175]

SAVAGE!

[@mariomandujano7116]

Should we get you a prescription to buy antibiotics? Loved how you use reverb for lead sounds.

[@ChainsawChristmas]

I bought the Alluvial tab book. It's currently in a glass case with "Break when ready" written on it.

[@adeptusmechanicus1029]

Lmao I feel you. Ive got one as well.

[@IGedeManue]

The best (technical) modern metal guitarist along with Keene. All aspects!

[@conkyjoe8932]

You have GOT to be kidding lol. Keene is washed up, dude prioritizes drugs over playing, the fans, being on time to his own gigs, etc etc. When I saw The Faceless live they were garbage. I mean don't get me wrong, Planetary Duality is one of my favorite metal albums of all-time. But The Faceless are done with.

[@gamerluigi]

DUDE!!!!!!!!!!

[@MIKHAILOFFICIAL]

Ludwig Colindres dude plus 1

[@richardjewett7702]

I didn't think a Triple Crown could sound that great.....

[@crowbars_up6049]

phenomenal. super fucking dark shit i love it

[@ryanpress4219]

that was fucking badass dude

[@archetype.music.studio]

That Blue Channel is where I spend a lot of my high gain time with my own TC

[@patrickcombs1272]

Purrty badass

[@exebor7824]

Jesus if I love these riffs

[@AirGuitar]

Fuck yeah dude! Why does your technique have to be soo good?? Looks awesome!

[@Epochstudios]

@Wes Hauch I'm pretty sure I speak for everyone here that we'd love a Kemper profile of that tone brutha! Especially that Mesa Tc Amp, whew wee that thing smokes! Official Kemper and helix profiles coming soon I hope?

[@teardownthesun]

Perfectly tapered 😚

[@johnnyashtray]

I see your colors... and I ain't runnin. Hospitable

[@soulremoval]

Fuckin love that song hell yeah man

[@EmbarrassedComposer]

So fucking sick!

[@fabriceregnaut3540]

Hy WES HAUCH , I was wondering who played in the amazing Duncan Custom 7' s clip ; I think it was you , fantastic and inspirational !

[@lukesaunders4776]

Filming on this demo is awesome! Nothing can match the playing though...

[@Pashok11]

It`s hardest metal on the Earth! Listening Alluvial 2-3 month. Trying to play this. Can only play Mirelands on 85 % speed. Anyway it gives me mystery!) Hope u`ll be more famous then Rammstein!))

[@The1stMrJohn]

Great construction Chunky Chops Raunchy Riffage ;~)

[@patrickcombs1272]

Your a Killer , bro.

[@iamdifferent777]

Hey @wes, where did you get the pickguard for the FRIX7FEAH Ibanez model?! I can’t find it anywhere and want one like this!!!!

[@Icipher4]

So sick. Finally a proper tc-100 demo. Was this boosted?

[@tarkenton3895]

Hey Wes, was just wondering whether you got that pickguard from Ibanez themselves or was it aftermarket? Looking at picking up this FR if I see one in the wild but fancy a way of getting around the active routing.

[@MateNako]

Jesus..... Yeah dem tonzs are great but DEM SKILLZ

[@AleArzMusic]

I wish I could play half as well as you
