whats up w/ the painted figernails, dude?!!!
Everything I needed to know – very helpful!!
Pantera reference spotted ????????
Dude had everyone’s coffee this morning
You make great videos, but PLEASE talk slower.
YIKES on the metal zone
Does anybody know if the riff he played with the boss pedal at 18:45 is a real song or just some shredding?
Still have my original boss metalzone from 2001 lol , great boost pedal imo
This dude paints his nails black
Thanks brother. So much fun to watch.????
Metal guitar is weird, you boost the mids with a tube screamer and then you cut them with the EQ pedal/amp.
Empress Heavy Menace,… please.
would this combination of pedals work on a combo amp?
I found a pedal I really like, it's from PRS. Called Mary Cries. I use it as a second compressor, right after my Skreddy P19. Love the sound of it. It is not only a compressor.
On my artiphon orba 2 synthesizer ???? I learned the arcana minor B A G F E D C thanks ???? Take Care ???? tuning vill ????
I love you degan your programme really helps! Thanks brother from Warren. ????
9:38 9:52
what a waste of time
Hey what about the Boss Metal Core it is worth hearing it sounds really good in tone compared to boss metal zone i think.
I’ve owned or still own all of these pedals or variations of these pedals. I gotta say this is a good selection to get you almost anywhere within metal.
The mxr 5150 lead me to the purchase of my evh 5150iiis el34 100 watt head.
I had the 10 band version of that eq. Which it was solid but I have since moved on to a boss eq200. But there’s nothing wrong with the mxr
The boss mt2 does MUCH better in the fx loop as a preamp pedal rather than into the preamp section of your amp. And it is rock solid if used properly.
The tube screamer really needs no discription whatsoever.
I have the pitchfork+ and replaced my whammy dt. It does all the cool stuff. It takes an exp pedal. It takes a 3 button control pedal. It has in and out options the whammy does not. And it’s only 9v. It’s such a badass whammy alternative.
I’ve never used that gate before but I can’t imagine it’s bad. I use the tc electronics sentry and it’s stellar.
If you’ve read this far, you’re probably a total nerd just like me and you friggin rock!!!
Ibanez Screamer and the m x r EQ sounds great.
The other ones not so much
Mosky Black Rat Distortion.
200 for smart gate ????
Thanks for the knowledge! Just ordered this gear.
I just got a Orange Super Crush 100 amp head with a Orange pro 4×12 240 cab with my Charvel HSS hardtail. ❤
So.. the.. shit I need to buy a book or something… the bypass mode with the preamp thing that goes through the something something and does a thingamajig… can anyone recommend a book of some kind that could explain guitar amp configs?
How the F do British dudes make scarfs so cool..
That’s a scarf right?
I use a boss metalcore
Uh you forget compression
Got a Maxon 808 used, and it's flippin fun!
What riff is that from 7:20
I just discovered the tired and cliched "my brother from another mother" in Dagan and he kicks major ass. First guy on YT that is a straight up metal head that I've seen. He plays what I want to hear and is literally chock full of the best info guys like me/us need. Dude is an old skool metaller man – pedal point, muted metal. What a pleasure after listening to a bunch of guys wank to Sir Edward riffs or those annoying, loud open death metal chords that I guess are supposed to be out of tune? 2 things really piss me off: bad camera men in porn and demo guitar guys wanking with leads instead of fucking power chords and galloping riffs.
Holy war distortion pedal is way cheaper and just as good as any other distortion pedal. Very wide range of sound
I’d say that probably the best all rounded is the metal zone pedal.
Metal zone is always a good time
That 5150 pedal didnt have enough gain for me
So only have one amp, when he says distortion in pre-amp….is he saying that run distortion through the send/return effects loop?
