@frankhinckley3756 I've recently purchased the Fishman ToneDEQ direct box to run it through. Sounds amazing with the added built in reverb and compressor.

Very kind, thank you! I'll attempt to answer everything... First, I used a Sennheiser e609 to the right of the cone... a few inches below the actual 'R' of the Fender logo, and like an inch or so to the right of it. I prefer the mic right up against the grill, and I run it into my PreSonus inbox. As far as that mic - and if you're like me and have occasionally noisy neighbors - the pickup pattern of that particular mic is about as close as I can get to perfect. As far as cutting through the mix, I use mine ~mostly~ at my church with a nice bit of gain... more-so during lead solos and stuff. In that particular environment, it cuts through (instrumentally, there is a bassist, drums, keys, an acoustic, and me). For a little extra "oomph," I also use a Greer LIGHTSPEED Organic Overdrive - one of my subscribers just recently turned me on to that pedal. It pairs up with this amp even better than the Wampler Tumnus Deluxe I had been running prior to the Greer pedal. I LOVE this pedal. It gives the cleans that extra edge of breakup sound and the same setting boosts the crunch and extra gain in all the right places. I was asked last week to fill in with a local band, and I quickly realized that the sound I use at church needed to be modified slightly in that tighter-spaced rock band environment. I lowered the reverb and the delay volumes, and I finally found that balance to cut through the mix. I will give you my pedalboard setup, though, if this helps: I run my guitar into the tuner into the Lightspeed direct into the amp. All other effects run through effects loop: I run from the amp Send into a Keeley Halo Andy Timmons Dual Echo > Boss DD8 Digital Delay (set to reverse mode) > Spark Booster mini (for volume boost for solos) > Boss NS2 Noise Suppressor > JHS Little Black Amp Box into the amp Return. I use the NS2 to cut extra high gain noise, the Spark mini to cut through, and the Little Black Amp Box to adjust the overall volume so I don't have to change any of my amp knob settings whether I'm playing live or recording late at night in the studio room. Aside from that, I run humbucker pickups. Hopefully this info helps. Keep me posted, if you will. :)

@onevoiceinc Joe, what an amazing reply. Thank you so much! Excellent job all round and I will try those ideas out on the 30R. Cheers

@BrandonBlatchford how you been?

@@Jamman610 the price on these seems to have dropped overall. You can get a brand new one at Sweetwater for a few dollars more.

@@onevoiceinc Cool & with a foot switch.

@Jamman610 and a warranty. That's all win :)

@Matthew_Scan oh wow. Did they refund it? My two 30s have been running smoothly. They sound better and have more options than my Marshall DSL40. I've heard bad reviews from the 15 model, like lots of bad reviews.

@@onevoiceinc I got it repaired under warranty but ended up selling I wasn’t using it much

@@AuthenticallyMichael thank you for the very kind response. I'm definitely trying. :)

@wowyarkan I'll have to peek inside and see if the grains match - I've never even thought of this stuff - but I'll say, it plays and sounds better than any acoustic I've personally ever owned. I'm primarily an electric guitarist (and I love my Musicman Sabre core model guitars above everything), but for my needs, the Taylor hits it. :)

@onevoiceinc well I suppose any guitar that makes you pickup and play is a good guitar and yes Taylor necks are so nice especially coming from electric.

My Taylor checks all the boxes for me. I’ve played tons of guitars over the years. I have Mexican Teles that beat the US ones by a mile. I have layered a.k.a. laminate guitars and ukuleles that I prefer to solid wood. All due respect, I was once a gear snob, but after playing all these years, I am much happier now. I even find joy in my $100 partscaster.

@@scotmoorhouse2427 I put that in the description (a lonnnnnng time ago, hahaha). That was a goof up I keep paying for. But you are correct. :D

@fedup3449 you have Marshall skills I don't. I applaud that. :)

I wish you could've played my old 2000 Hughes and Kettner Tour Reverb. That thing was 100w of solid state power, and it fooled so many people to thinking it was tube. :) ah, memories... (I miss that amp.)

@@onevoiceinc I don’t need a lot of different sounds, if can get at least one good one out of I’m impressed with any amp… lol

@@PainterDans the Katana is so versatile, too. :) I've personally been running a Fender Bassbreaker 30r these days, BUT if someone tells me they're looking for an amp, the Katana will come up in the conversation for sure.

@@arunkp20 your ear is very consistent. Unlike most of the viewers who commented, you guessed which was which. Good job, especially considering how difficult I tried to make it.

@@terrybeaud9348 awesome!! If you find yourself with any questions as you explore, please feel free to reach out. I'll be carrying this concept further in the weeks ahead. :)

I probably referred to it generically as "binding" in the video, but you're correct, it's a solid ⅜" maple cap. The grain lines flowing through the different colors are awesome.

@Brunosdad thank you thank you thank you. Very encouraging. Finding the balance and how to explain this without a disconnect has always been a major challenge. Very glad it clicked. Before I created this TH-cam channel, I had a free website I made to attempt at this same idea. If you get to a point of mastering the major scale and want to go further, definitely reach out, and I'll be happy to pass on that link. The beauty of that site is that there's no "tricks," no signing up for anything, or any of that. It's all straight up info without agenda. This channel was initially an attempt at expanding what i was trying to teach on that website, before somehow shifting into a mostly guitar review channel. I'll post more lessons in the coming weeks. :)

@shoutitallloud are you referring to major or minor? The notes of the D major scale are D, E, F#, G, A, B, C#... so the chord tones would be D, F#, A. The fretboard pattern/shape remains the same, but the notes change based on where the pattern is placed and what key you're playing. The minor scale is a different matter, because it actually comes from the 6th tone of the major scale. So if you ran the F major scale (F, G, A, Bb, C, D, E) from it's 6th tone to the next 6th tone, you'd now have D minor: D, E, F, G, A, Bb, C. The minor scale uses the basic chord formula 1, b3, 5. So if you are running the D minor scale, you'd have the minor chord notes D, F, A. Hopefully I explained it in an understandable way. If not, please let me know, so I can clarify it better. I'm passionate about helping guitarists to maneuver and ultimately master the fretboard. :) I actually have a free theory site that explains a lot of this stuff further if you're interested. It's free with no catches or sign ups or any of that stuff.

@shoutitallloud just in case, I'll leave this here, to help out. This is my free site that I created years ago. It'll give visual charts and further explanation... plus it'll explain other topics, like modes, the Nashville number system, and a bunch of other things. I left it up just due to how many charts are on it. It'll carry you further than even this video lesson will. The video I posted only covers the major scale in the key of C (to kind of kick start the process), but the website I made goes wayyy further. onevoiceinc.wordpress.com/2010/06/11/14/

@@onevoiceinc Thank you for explanation! I think I got it... but not sure. So, to build a scale (major) we take a note that we want. That would be our root note. And walk upward: fulltone-fulltone-halftone-fulltone-fulltone-fultone-halftone. Then we take 1st,3rd and 5th steps in that scale and that would be the notes of chord? Is that right?

@@shoutitallloud yes, exactly. Sounds like you've grasped it. :)

WWHWWWH. remember that formula. Whole steps. Half steps. this is how you build major scales.

Thank you. :) I find it easier running the two Green channels and use something like a Greer Lightspeed in between to boost as needed and balance both sides better. I'll say, though, I've recently run across a Fender Bassbreaker 30r, and I've been running that pretty regularly now... BUT I still own the Marshall, it just got bumped over for the newer amp, haha. I did a review for that amp also. :)

@@andrewmanara5289 awesome. In its price range, it is pretty incredible, I think. How is it treating you?

@@onevoiceinc so far so good. Haven't plugged it in yet

@caseysniper308 sounds like yours has found a great home :) I'll bet that twin reverb sounds incredible clean.

SG or Ibanez, surprisingly difficult, if you're talking an Ibanez in the same price bracket as the SQ. Ibanez makes some great products. Also keep in mind that I'm biased against the neck scale length of most Gibsons. I'm a 25½ scale guy... that being said, Ibanez would have lots of models to choose from in the SG price range. Being blinded by my own preferences, I'd probably pick the Ibanez. The AZ line has gotten rave reviews also.

@@onevoiceinc Ya actually I'm leaning towards the Ibanez AZ2402-TFF Tri Fade Burst color, It has 2 Seymour Duncan Hyperion humbuckers and costs like 2 grand.

@@onevoiceinc I think you meant RG price range which I was thinking of also buying the RG550 which is 1 grand.

@@HotGates I'll have to look that up, but it sounds like a great guitar. At that price, you might even be able to snag a used Musicman Sabre (but I'm super biased, hahaha)... but if you like Ibanez, they make great guitars, so I applaud your choice. Now I gotta go look that model up. Curiosity is peaked.

@@onevoiceinc I looked up the Musicman Sabre wowww 4 grand.

@NoStringsAttached777 thank you!!! And yeah, I love some AIC. Also, a subscriber told me about running the Greer Lightspeed with the amp vs my Tumnus Deluxe. Wow, what a difference it made! It sounds like the amp, so it just gives you even more of the amp for live dynamic options. I'll be doing some kind of part 2 of this video, but I may end up doing a future video highlighting the pedals I run, why, and what they do. If you end up looking for a ~boost~ kinda pedal, check out the Lightspeed. Like the amp, it doesn't disappoint. :)

I've just noticed if I turn the bass/mid/treble all the way down on my 30r, I lose all volume. This happens on both channels. I can see where this might make sense, but also see where it could be an issue. Any idea if yours has the same behavior?

@@ErikTomblinWrites ​they all do that. When I was researching this amp and watching videos before I bought it I saw it demonstrated by a reviewer. In that way, it's a truer representation of EQ (I'm thinking) in that if, for example, Bass is down to zero, that frequency isn't present. I think it's cool, personally. :)

@twoguncorcoran4733 perhaps amp companies should start selling chicken wire! Hahaha

@amaturemusicians I'm actually working on a lesson video at the moment. I just gotta slow down so I can finish editing it. I plan to try to do a few more down the road.

Hahahaha!!! That combines two things: 1. Accountability (and wives are great for keeping us in check) and 2. Living life full throttle (and buying guitars, as it should be). Rock on!

Thank you! It's a great guitar, for sure.

This amp has definitely become my favorite amp ever. I only recently discovered it a few months ago, and it continues to be a game changer for me. I have a relatively small pedal setup I can pass your way to enhance/fine tune the sound if you need it also. I •was• originally running a Wampler Tumnus Deluxe with it (to add more subtle layers of gain) until just recently when a subscriber introduced me to the Greer Lightspeed (Organic Drive), and it once again became a game changer as well. You may not even need that, though, considering the amp is a powerful sound engine on its own. Regardless, I LOVE this amp, and it easily checks all the boxes. Glad to see you got one!! Fender got this one so right! :)

@@Javier-qk7ms side note: take care of that wife. Sounds like you got a good one. :)

@@onevoiceinc Thanks, I for now will just start with my MXT badass 77 to get a controlled jump in gain/volume for leads when using the crunch channel as rythm, that is because there is a hugh jump in volume going from chrunch to high gain. One thing that I am really interested on is getting or even creating myself a decent profile with the ToneX, I just don't have the reamping boxes needed for that, but I think this is a sound I would hate to loose in the future, after all it is a PCB based circuit so technicians will depend on spare replacement PCBs from Fender to keep these amps alive.

Thank you! They're Pearly Gates Plus (possibly exclusive to that guitar, but not sure) and then a Duncan 59 in the neck. :)

@chrisgeo1642 I normally never go to Guitar Center as is - if I do, it's only because something major popped up and I need it sooner than Sweetwater can ship it. (In that case, I ran out of strings, which I never do... and I let my eyes talk me into that guitar.) That was a woopsie never do that again moment that happened years ago. I lived and I learned, lol.

@matthewfrench5539 very very kind. I'll have to check out the Lightspeed, 'cause you have my curiosity wondering... So yeah, I'm thinking Fender took a risk (I have to applaud them for that), but with a little bit of marketing, I think it could've taken off. Maybe. I love mine. Both of them. In addition to the TH-cam channel, playing for my church, and entertaining the idea of a reunion show with my last original project (do I ~really~ want to do another club gig? Haha. We'll see. If I do, they better let us play at normal volumes), I've been involved in a recording project... and man, the tone options are Crazy! It's easier to operate and balance than my DSL40, and it just absolutely rocks. So happy with it. :) Rock, progressive rock, metal (which I sometimes dabble with), pop, jazz, fusion... it's all there in that little beast. What kind of pedals are you running with yours? The ones I listed in the video are literally what I'm running. It's so good, I parked my Strymon BlueSky and started mostly only using that with my Taylor acoustic (or for occasional layers in recording).

@@onevoiceinc awesome - it really is a fantastic. I think I would be fine in a pinch without any pedals with this amp. But that wouldn’t be any fun, would it?! I have the Greer lightspeed on almost always just to help give a bit of grit at lower volumes. Aside from that gain-wise, I use a Klon-style pedal, mostortion and a fuzz face. And for a little added flavour, a strymon flint, Keeley Halo delay, phase 90 and ce-2 chorus. I’ve rotated things on and off my board for years, but this lineup has lasted longer than any other. Also… try a JHS Little Amp Box in the effects loop of the bassbreaker. Lets you get the gain cooking a bit without needing to run at ear-piercing high volumes.

@matthewfrench5539 oh cool. I run that particular JHS also. It's a great alternative to an actual attenuator. I was explaining my pedal setup to my bassist yesterday: " this one reduces the overall volume without having to change the amp knobs (JHS). This one boosts volume, especially in my solos (Spark mini). This one reduces noise. (Boss NS2). This one adds a ~little~ extra grit (Tumnus Deluxe). This is my new goto delay (Halo) and this one adds that cool backward sound underneath it all (Boss DD8, set to reverse)." It's a great setup. With my DSL, I ultimately bought a Blackstar Amped 3 to run in the return as the new amp brain, with the Marshall becoming a speaker cabinet only for live play. Like most of all those pedals I spent, trying to chase down a sound to try to balance the DSL, it confirmed that (for what I play) the DSL just doesn't cut it for me. I ~may~ eventually do a comparison... but not sure. With the Bassbreaker getting discontinued, not sure if there's even a point for that. Not sure. Anyway, sounds like both of us are loving these particular Fender amps. That's a win. :)

@@DonBeckett thank you! I've since completely changed my entire recording and video setup, but that older stuff served a good purpose. :)

Thank you for the kind words. I figured 1. I love this song and have always wanted to do a version of it (live or video) and 2. Everybody always does shred videos, so why not change it up a little. :) I love (LOVE) the clean tone of this amp.

Thank YOU. :) I've heard that the lower watt Bassbreaker amps have a hand turn knob (rather than the convenient foot switch) to change between channels. I'd suggest doing the research before buying that. As far as the 30r model, I run a JHS Little Black Amp Box in the effects loop, so I'm able to drop it to super low volumes without having to change my knobs on the amp. It's not an expensive pedal, either, so that's an extra perk. Hope this was helpful. :)

@@onevoiceinc Can you elaborate on that JHS box? Honestly I cant understand how different that is to cranking the preamp gain and then lowering the master volume knob. The master volume is meant to control how loud the preamp is being hit by the output of the preamp section.

@Javier-qk7ms absolutely. This particular amp has (on the clean side) a volume and (on the crunch side) a volume - so one volume per side with no overall master volume for a unified overall amp volume. So to balance both (once everything is dialed in and both channels are balanced), the JHS in the effects loop acts as an overall amp volume to adjust without having to mess with the individual volumes. This works best in being able to set an in house volume and a live volume without changing anything on the amp knobs. :) If that makes any sense. The Marshalls have a master volume in addition to channel volumes. This one just has the individual channel volumes. Where this amp shines brightly over the DSL models, however, is in the individual EQs and the ability to balance an overall sound. I was never able to achieve that with my DSL40. It always kinda sounded like different amps EQ-wise every time I would change to another channel. This one you can dial in those frequencies, so your clean, crunch, and lead sound like it's all from the same amp and source.

@@onevoiceinc Thank you, I will keep that in mind. I am getting mine now :)

@shanetx81 thank you so much. I wanted to be super careful with this one, because it's pretty much like ~walking on sacred ground~ to me. :)

Thank you! I haven't gotten to try it in a live setting yet, so I can't answer that definitively. I know it's capable of getting really really loud... but that's all I know currently. Plus most of what I do live these days involves in ear monitors. Shane from @intheblues channel might know more on that. He did a comparison video between it and the Marshall DSL40. I haven't seen that video in a while, though.

@@gregjandt2841 I just watched both the Bassbreaker review and the shootout between it vs the Marshall DSL40 on the intheblues channel (again to refresh my memory). Per Shane fun that channel, they're both easily gigable. I would add, for quiet home practices it might be good to run a JHS Little Black Amp Box through the effects loop... both for taming this beast and to adjust overall volume without altering your gig settings. Hope this is helpful.

What style(s) of music do you play? If you want to go from Dream Theater to AC/DC to RadioHead to old 60's clean tone, the Katana Artist is pretty darn versatile. If you (like myself) prefer a standard straight ahead rock sound (with three to four different stages to go from clean to intense) AND you don't mind buying a very small handful of pedals to add to the sound (I could easily run this with my Wampler Tumnus Deluxe in front and the Keeley Echo Dual Delay in the effetcs loop and call it a day. Two pedals. All the other stuff is for cleaning up gain noise (Boss NS2), lowering my studio room volume without turning the amp knobs (JHS Little Black Amp Box), boosting the overall volume for standout solos in potential live settings (TC Electronic Spark Booster mini), and I just really really like the Boss DD8 reverse delay sound underneath everything, haha!), the Bassbreaker 30 is awesome and where it's at. I will admit I haven't played it live ~yet~ (I'm planning that for next weekend), but if it sounds like how I think it'll sound live, I will probably be replacing my DSL with the Bassbreaker 30 as my new live rig. One other consideration to consider is that these are being discontinued (for whatever reason Fender has for that decision), so supply for new models will be limited. I own both the Kat and the Bassbreaker. I love both. I just really really quickly warmed up to the Bassbreaker sound, right out of the box. It's the sound I've been trying to reconnect to since I sold my old Hughes & Kettner Tour Reverb amp. I think I've found it here. Anyway, hope this was helpful. :)

@@onevoiceinc Thanks for the reply, I usually play Pink Floyd, Guns and Roses and all that stuff, I already have the Peavey 5150 that I bought in 1988 but it doesn't work anymore.

@@Rob-ik6ri I'm mindblown. [Insert explosion sound here.]

@@onevoiceinc lol , is this thing loud enough to jam with drummer , I am buying my first elec guitar and amp , should I buy MARSHALL DSL40 , Fender Champion or Boss katana ?

@Rob-ik6ri it should be loud enough to keep up with a drummer. What style(s) of music are you playing (so I can properly answer the rest of your question)? To be honest, for what I am presently using mine for, I get it remotely close to 10 or 11 o'clock on the 20 watt setting... BUT the drummer isn't right beside me, and he has some plexiglass in front of him so there's that. Regardless, it's a giggable amp, for sure. One other thing... IF you're able, I'm working on a review video for my new Fender Bassbreaker 30r amp. I am personally loving the tone frequencies and the extra features even more than my DSL40 (Totally honest review, right?). I just posted two song videos featuring it (a Peter Gabriel song and a Jimi Hendrix song), but I'm still possibly a few days out in the editing process for that review. LONG story: in the last couple of weeks Fender (JUST) announced they were discontinuing that amp. So there's a lot to consider - I love the amp so much I bought a second one, just in case I ever needed a backup in the years ahead - but it definitely threw me a curve ball in how I'm doing this review. The Bassbreaker 30r has a separate EQ per side (unlike the DSL), but the Marshall DSL is a tiny bit quieter as far as hum/hiss/gain noises associated with high gain (even at lower volumes). A lot to consider. My apologies for such a lengthy response, but I always want to make sure you have as much available info as I can provide before spending that hard earned money for an investment. :)

@@onevoiceinc Thx , I will jam with my father , some Animals , The Shadows , Hej Joe Jimi Hendrix I hope I could learn Purple Haze some day ,mostly old school rock

@@Rob-ik6ri ​@Rob-ik6ri great stuff!! Yeah, the DSL40 should probably do right for you. If you're looking for pedal options, either give me a shout out watch the end of that Peter Gabriel video I did - I listed all the gear I used at the end. It was either that video or the Jimi Hendrix video I just uploaded. One of those two anyway. :)

@Revelation22_5 thank you! I was originally going to try Love or Confusion, but this one jumped out at me. He had so many great songs to pick from.

@@johnnythelion.8670 I actually switched the amp order on different examples. The big reveal is in part 2. :)

I love both of my tube amps- the Marshall DSL and the Fender Bassbreaker 30r. I'm working on a review video for the latter now. Stay tuned. It sounds really really fantastic. :)

@ProcalHarem very kind! I definitely •try• to come at this from the "if I'm on a budget and only able to buy one thing, what would I want to know about with this product?" mindset. For a larger part of my guitar journey, that was my own reality. If I can help one person avoid buyer's remorse (from their own hard earned cash), sign me up! :) On that note, I bought and tried out a VERY competitive amp (to the DSL) a few months ago - the Fender Bassbreaker 30r. If you're looking to buy an amp currently, please look at that also. I'm trying to get a legit review video out for it ASAP, but I can't seem to get it out fast enough with work schedule. Both amps have strong selling points. I find myself loving the Bassbreaker 30r more than the DSL40 (personally for my own individual musical tastes). There are a small handful of review videos on TH-cam in the meantime... while I try to push to get this review out. I'll add, it's also loud! I'm using a JHS Little Black Amp Box and a Boss Noise Suppressor to make it home friendly, but unlike the DSL, it has separate EQs for both the clean and the dirty channel(s). Wanted to put that out there in case one of these amps might be more suited specifically for you. :) With that out of the way, thank you again for your kind words. Makes this channel and the time spent creating it so worth it. Have a wonderful day, friend.

@JamesHawkins-m2s one thing to add (after discovering it a few months ago): try the Fender Bassbreaker 30r, or at least look it up and see if it's the absolute perfect amp. It rocks brutally AND gets those Eric Johnson cleans so well! I'm actually working on a review for it now. I still actively use the Marshall live and still love it, but I've gone over the moon with the Bassbreaker 30r. It has an EQ pet channel, and the natural amp frequencies are to die for. It's a new discovery I've been using the past two or three months (and since posting this Marshall review). :)

@michaelmay9059 THANK YOU! Very kind! Yeah, I love some Soundgarden (and Alice in Chains). I'm currently working on a Fender Bassbreaker 30r review video that will feature AIC's WOULD? and some other cool songs. :) I've finally figured out how to get better audio in my videos along with a better camera. I'd consider replacing the previous videographer guy, except he's me, haha, so... Have a great weekend! :)

@onevoiceinc I'm a huge fan of AIC as well. It's funny cause I know most people, and the music industry group Soundgarden and AIC together because they came out of the same city around the same time, but to me, it's hard to compare them to each other. Its like comparing Led Zeppelin to Pink Floyd. Sure they are both rock bands that came out-of England in the 60s and 70s, and they both changed the landscape of popular music, but they are so different. Idk if that's a good analogy but it makes sense to me.

@onevoiceinc I can totally relate to experimenting with different ways to record audio and video in the pursuit of better tone and higher quality audio. I've been scouring YT and online forums and spent a few thousand dollars on different audio gear learning how to record myself playing guitar. I started a Guitar YT channel about a year ago. I haven't posted anything in about 4 or 5 months because Iost my job and have had some other stressors in my life, but I need to get back to being creative. Honestly, I think I started the YT channel because of the allure of different potential revenue streams and also all the free gear I see other channels get. Lol. If I'm honest with myself I think I'd be misusing my time making gear videos when it's not my true passion and won't help me with what I actually want to do. Instead I've been using my time writing songs and trying to get the best possible recording of them.

@michaelmay9059 believe it or not, I originally started this channel as an extension of a free guitar theory/ education site I had created. Prior to the site, i was going to just do live music theory seminars (?) as an extension of my other musical projects and duties to help guitarists get more out of their instrument and be able to learn live content faster as a result. It got shot down by some ~naysayers~ who could also pull some strings. I refused to be defeated, and I got the idea to start a site and later this channel. My thoughts were to keep it free and keep those annoying commercials off the site and the YT channel, so I never monetized the channel... only to realize YT adds advertising anyway (sigh). Somehow, it's shifted into more of a gear review channel over the years. But yeah, being able to create and help people has been the motivation, even if it's helping people to be able to make better informed information on gear (and not regretting spending their hard earned money on gear they won't like or need). It all starts with creating music, though. From there, creating various forms to deliver it (ie recording, live shows, TH-cam, etc). I visited your channel just now, and noticed you had a Collective Soul song on your site that I've also been working on for the review video I've been working toward. Funny! Small world! But let me say YOU CAN DO MOST OF EVERYTHING YOU SET YOUR MIND TO DO (minus flying or wall crawling. That just doesn't work, haha). I want to STRONGLY encourage you to create and see where it leads you. I'm going to subscribe to your channel right now to add my tiny contribution, and if I can help in any way I'm able to, let me know. We're more than a TH-cam community, we're a musical community. I like what you wrote, and I'll be rooting for you, brother. :) Rock on, loudly!!

@michaelmay9059 yes!! When I used to hear "Seattle bands," I used to ask, "Which one? Hendrix, Heart, Queensryche, Soundgarden, Alice in Chains, Pearl Jam, or?") Such a great music hub for such musical diversity and creativity. :)
