@@SHREDTILLDEAD I did an even trade for my Kiesel Osiris. It worked out great, as I paid $700 less for my Kiesel brand new as the Strandberg was brand new
I want to try one because of the very unique neck design. They're supposed to be the most ergonomic guitars every designed. I'd like to see if this is the case. I almost bought a Steinberg in the 80s but the big problem was the cost of double-ball end strings which are still outrageously expensive. Although they do make these adapters so you can use regular strings. I'm quite happy with my PRS and strats. Just curious about Strandberg.
How great would it be have Plini as your neighbor? Probably doesn't wail too loud at his home studio (seems like a considerate fellow), but you could probably crack a window every now and then and catch some sweet riffage coming over the fence.
The brilliant thing about that guitar is that they extended the scale for the bass strings at the bridge instead of the nut end. That makes this considerably more playable than guitars that do it at the other end or both ends, especially for people with smaller hands.
Steve Vai,besides beeing a monster virtuoso, has great taste in music and genuinly likes to promote other talented people. Remember, he helped Devin Townsend to start his career back in the 90´s.
@@mattmurray07 lol they do it all the time! I remember Zakk Wylde praised Synyster Gates just before Zakk's album was coming out. Zakk's album was melodic, was good , reached 2nd in Billboard. It's win-win for both Synyster and Zakk. Synyster was upcoming rockstar, he needed endorsement from giants, where as Zakk needed love of A7x fans.
Well I just have to say this cause I got the digital album ahead (of release) cause of SH pre order but wow since I have known about you, you have your own style and dude you're Allan Holdsworth in a different format! I mean that to the most distinct meaning/sound!
1:50 It says "using compressed DI", is it normal to record your DI with compression on it? How is this achieved and is it a good thing? I can record DI by going straight into my audio interface, but is it normal to put a compressor in front of that?
@@jacob7225 I'm asking for along the lines that I was under the impression that the DI should just be the raw signal so you can reamp it however you want. I was actually curious if compressing the DI actually makes it more playable or something. I guess I could just try it and see, but I'd have to figure out how to route the signal correctly to get a compressed DI AND the tone from his Archetype plugin.
@@HaydenCraig000 The Archetype Abasi's first amp has a blend knob that blends DI with the amp, so you could use that with the pathos to get the same effect.
For me, the more "airy" the pickup sound, the harsher the sound once it has any level of distortion. Try adding heavy distortion to a bright Strat and you'll see what I mean. I like bright pickups for very clean, glassy Fender-type sounds, but for warm fat distortion, you should really dial it down.
@@distortingjack I agree with you wholeheartedly, but I'd rather have pickups that sound nice and airy by themselves and when the highs are too much...hey, the thing has knobs to turn that down. You can't add air, but you cán roll off some of the tone.
@@rienoceros I have found that the air is usually a resonant frequency in the treble, and the tone knob doesn't shift that much, meaning it's still harsher than a mellower voicing such as these pickups. It's a matter of taste, but if you want smooth tone, start with smooth, slightly dark pickups.
How would you visualize a quintuplet swing? Like, if regular triplet swing is "1 x 3 2 x 3 3 x 3 4 x 3" would quintuplet swing be like " 1 x x x 5 1x x x 5...."? Im curious lol
@@chadmarx7718 something between str8 and swing. (123 12/ accenting on 1 and 4 1xx4x- Taa ta; taa ta) see shawn crowders video about it... Im still trying to get it myself
@@chadmarx7718 hahaha i had that FZ photo for years ,that i just forgot about it , i knew his rhyms were weird but never really listen to them closley or whatever
Disclaimer: the original pickups doesn’t come with plini skills and creativity
Oh snap, now I have to buy his expensive skills at practice.com, too costly.
I can settle with the Plini hair and black sleeves collection
😞😞😞
work* were commanded by god to work. all you have to do is work guys.......
If they keep this up, the whole world will be playing Strandbergs before we know it 🚀
You know why plini seems so silent and quiet all the time?
He has the power to make his guitar do all the talking.
im convinced that plini is the guitar and the dude playing it is just some random guy
@@lucassims3538 lol
I love that you show how it sounds unprocessed at the end.. 2:59 so good! 😎
this marketing is working. I really want to try a strandberg guitar.
They are definitely worth it! I traded my Kiesel headless for a Strandberg Metal and it was the great thing I’ve ever done.
@Flake28 the tone is in the fingers. No amount of gear will make you sound good on its own.
Ive wanted to play one since Id seen it

This album is already awesome
Sounds really balanced!
This guys melodic sense is on another fucking level I'm tellin you man. Genius
Love it when it's not high output, sounds even in EQ and very woody sounding yet you still can hear that harmonic content ringing out.
...what does woody even mean lol
@@thekramer1097 That tone you can use in the song "You've got a friend in me". A bit country like.
We must be listening to two quite different sets of pickups.
This has been being waited for so long ❤️

I'm just here for sneak peeks at the new album
very interesting to hear how the tones sound on their own and then in a mix.
Those pickups sound great!
Plini: Gets more successful
Also Plini: Still rockin the bedhead
This guitar sounds insane! Been listening to the " Every piece matters" and this guitar sound is absolutely my all time favorite!
Love the Bondi Effects in the background!

Cant wait for new album
Very solid as usual plini, impressive af.
I love you Plini!
I am very excited for the new album!
*We love you, man!*
1:10 riff of the day, at least for me :D
Pickups sound rad! Lovely cleans and smashing lead tones 🤩
Simon Should demo his bass. Would love to get an unproduced raw sample of his tone.
@James Collins Yeah definitely
and nice profile picture ;)
This album is sounding great!
Still in love with the Jazz/JB combo in the Strandberg Plini 1.0
Still waiting to order your neckthrough signature. Dream guitar
Just 2 days left' CAN'T WAIT!!
Parah nih Plini, bikin pengen punya gitar strandberg. Sayang aku miskin jd ga mampu beli :'''"
Great sound!
I know I'm supposed to be paying attention to the pick ups, but that's a cool desk set up.
Might be my next guitar
Steve vai admires you. That says something
sounds like this Vai guy has some good taste

Good vibes from Chile, you're a genius bro
I was about to say, hey this sounds a lot like electric sunrise, and then I saw the channel
Awesome 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

pickups.
Came here just to give all my love
awesome, loved the album though🤩

How do these compare to the Suhr pickups that you were using?
That's real good
Nica playing sir
Ayyy man you need to drop those presets for the album!! We'll buy them if they're for sale!
Will the neck-thru model become available for purchase on strandberg? WE NEED TO KNOW! 🤣
I didnt buy a strand yet cuz im waiting for it... he wont answer 😢
I think we will probably see a neck-thru Plini model at/after NAMM. Ola said that Plini has been begging for one for years.
Spotless playing as usually. And I alo see there are closed barbershops and hairdresers in Australia.
And that's how you sell something. No Cheap Talking just ACTION and show how the product it's FUCKING NICE !!!

Hey) good job. Whats Yamaha use here? 5?
Dude the trees in the back ground react to your music !
Dig those pick ups and Plini’s Rona hairdo...
Gotta say I prefered the sound of the Suhr pickups to these, I'm interested to see what Plini's signature set will sound like though
I think these are his mate
@@Owtyg23 He says in the description they aren't

Are we ever gonna be able to buy strandbergs in australia? :(

Is that what you think about when you're sitting putting lipstick on with your toes?
@@sonatedaquiTFM I see you're not a true fan
⚆ _ ⚆
Stupid
Wow, these sound tight..almost compressed from the get-go. Could do with a bit more top-end airiness IMHO, but that's a matter of taste of course.
For me, the more "airy" the pickup sound, the harsher the sound once it has any level of distortion. Try adding heavy distortion to a bright Strat and you'll see what I mean.

Guys wtf we have now bright, dark, clean, glassy, warm, fat and now airy? lol
@@MrPabsify I've been waiting to add this one to this list but since we're here, I would like it to sound just a touch more "velvety" ;)
Nice
Awesome playing, as always, already preordered the album and really looking forward to the release
As if I wasn't already out of my mind with anticipation :D Oh, btw, just bought the Plini plugin 👍
Would've loved to hear the middle position split clean
PogChamp indeed
I
Is that an OP-1 on Plini's desk? Would love to see what he can do with that too
don't you just hate someone with perfect skills and technique
Plini, we talked about this before. Everyone knows these videos are not shot in your room. No one has a desk that clean and free of clutter. :-P
He just doesn't live there
what studio monitrs ie he using? yaaha i think but what size? I just have small ones and wanna know what would be beter (there m audiobx3
They look like yamaha HS's
@plini what string gauges are you using?
Sexy, what do you have under the iMac? Axe? Nice idea to get the iMac higher
will be a new signature Plini guitar ?
there should be a spoiler alert lol so the new album is recorded with the new pickups?
Where can one buy these pickups?
You can do that with compressors?!?
🌙🤙🏻
Is it suhr ssv and ssh plus?
Man these sound stupid good haha
Will you be able to buy these separately or only in a strandberg?
Separately
Been looking for a copy of your handmade cities vinyl forever, anyone know if there are any sources that still have them?
Check sheet happens if ya haven't already
Is that a Sick As Overdrive pedal?
ugh,fine,i guess you are my little progchamp
where's the Plini Salen? :((((((((
