3:09 feeling the wood
That signal chain is mad by modern standards. Obviously works though, the guy has always sounded great
It’s 2024 and we live in the era of programmed delay pedals that snap to BPM of each song via midi along an entire circuit of other pedals and processors. These guys were heroic in making what they did with what they had available.
12:16 I've also got a memory, man
3:09 bro said "feeling the wood"
Huh huh huh huuh (with Butt-Head voice)
I am a big fan of their music. Einziger is a big part of the Incubus sound and composition content. However, as far as his ability to articulate a practical and concise description with any degree of eloquence? zero / zilch / nope
Man that guy in the background needs to shut up.
I love the feel of wood in my hand too
I’ve never seen a guitarist in a band this big playing with combo amps. Wonder why he uses those instead of the big tube heads
Are we going to talk about how dirty the cameras are? A great video otherwise!
So cool to hear specifically the pieces that are implanted on three different songs that are probably incubus faves of mine.
call me old school or romantic , but i will always think of Mike as a PRS player , even though he only played those for a short time in the late 90s- early 2000's , i guess because it coincided with Incubus peak in popularity.
He seems so humble and I absolutely adore his unique use of effects. Mike is a special guitarist no doubt
He looks like a rock and roll version of the late, great Michael Brooks (political commentator)
8:39 I completely forgot about that song. Amazing that he came up with that riff on a gift from Steve Vai!
this needs a 2023 update.
Very melodic guitarist, knows how to serve the song, doesn't play too many notes to impress the fools. See songs like: Just a Phase, Deep Inside, Pardon Me and Stellar…
i find it cool that mike isnt super technical, unlike pedal demo guys (who are all awesome in their own way). like he still prefers the old school.
I’ve used 13’s.. I’m a big dude with big ass hands… they were too heavy ????
Take a drink every time he says “you know” man I love mike one of my top guitar players
Legendary player!!!!
I truly like how these guys, Incubus, is big.. They have gotten BIG over the years. But they still seem very humane and humble. I like that!
This is great but he has such a specific heavy distortion that when he goes from a quiet verse to an extremely heavy (you literally feel the "weight" live) chorus and I really wanna know how he does that! I guess the answer is the distortion of a separate Mesa boogie? I just want to be able to do that with a pedal. Anybody have any recs on a meaty distortion pedal that you can kick in on a chorus that still let's you hear the higher strings? I love big muffs but they cut out the higher strings too much and I need to hear those while playing lower stuff at the same time.
why was he breaking strings? it's not like he plays like Billy Joe Armstrong
Take a drink every time he says "wrist". ????
I am trying to find out what 6 string banjo Mike was playing in Prague for Hans Zimmer. If anyone knows or is able to point me in the right direction, it would mean a lot. Thanks, everyone.
Edit: nevermind. I was able to reach out to Mike directly. Thanks though everyone!
You can really injure ur wrist if you really love the feel of that wood
Wow! You are unique for having no tattoos! You are my fave guitarist.
"I went through a lot of different guitars… Fenders, Gibsons… SGs, Telecasters, Strats…"
No mention of PRS's eh?
He really get’s maximum sound from his gear ????????
