Man, that's a tough choice honestly. There are a lot of really good/interesting players out there. Wes Hauch (probably my choice), Malcom Pugh, Dave Davidson, Jonas Bryssling, etc. Hell, Ryan Knight been killing it since he was in Arsis too. Brandon is a certified freak of nature tho.
Love that sunless empire solo. You can listen to his solos by themselves and they sound awesome. Kind of the definition of what a solo is literally supposed to be
I used to pay lots of money to Florida dominatrix to humiliate me and put me to shame but after discovering this guitar mastery I received more shame and humiliation than that dominatrix ever did now I save so much money probably gonna buy 3 of his signature guitar with it
Dude just parted the skys with magical shredding at the end and then just steps away with ..cool? This band rules. Thanks for letting the fans in on the equipment and the new album
It’s nothing for him to write an absolute ripper while simultaneously being chill as hell. He doesn’t get enough credit or recognition, and neither do this band, they deserve the world 🤘
Definitely gonna get that midi foot switch looks sick! Brandon Ellis is one of the best guitarists out there! I’m always checking out his videos for inspiration!
A wild Marshall appearance. It is worth noting that I also happen to be wearing my recently acquired Wretched shirt. Was so awesome seeing them live again! 💪🤘
Plays the most insane lead in a dead silent venue and then just says "cool" like it's nothing. My god that's a amazing sound, I can almost feel it from my speakers
It warms my heart that there are still shredders out there that are die hard real amp and gear heads! I just wanna say how cool this is and I'm nerding out on your gear hardcore 😂🤘
Even though you’re using the 5150iii on that leg of the tour, cool to hear and see you guys having used the Iconic on the road. Not sure why that amp caught so much crap at first but it’s such a killer amp particularly for the price point.
@Brandon Ellis you work so hard on everything and practice constantly and that is why you are such an amazing guitar player now in my opinion. I enjoyed every bit of the demonstration. Keep it up! I am very much looking forward to the new album and what you have in store for us this time around ✌️
I can’t say enough great things about Brandon, I just adore his playing. I am SO looking forward to the newest album but omg I only just started listening to the last couple he’s been on with TBDM. Can’t get enough Brandon Ellis!
brandon, your musicality is amazing, i dont want to bash your band but you are the one making it what it is and i would love for you to do an unlimited classical high gain guitar peices
I understand the convenience of touring w no amps, but it really sucks for the people in front of the stage when there are no amps on stage. I appreciate when bands still at least have a cab/amp on stage.
Have you tried using noise gates with key inputs? The ISP Decimator Pro Rack G might or even something like the BOSS NS-2 might give you the results you want without having 2 separate pedals. Appreciate you taking the time to do this - thanks to you and the team for keeping TBDM going!
Damn I geeked out on this shit lol Thanks for sharing your pedal chain because I’ve always wondered how you had your setup for leads and rhythms and which noise gates to switch to,my bro good shit!🙏🏽🤙🏽 #BUFFALO #NEWYORK
These are always good. In my opinion anyway. I’m not really a Kelly fan, although they are starting to grow on me, but that finish paired with the maple board and black stone inlays looks absolutely killer 👌.
Dude Brandon's the fucking man!🤘 I've never wanted to be a Jackson guy harder than seeing that Kelly, 27 frets! (My lack of lead skills doesn't warrant it 😅) I at least need to put one of those pickups in one of my guitars for fucksake it's so sick!!
I love your guitar and rigs, pretty simple as simple straight and as cool as setup which i want to set lile that. I agree that don't wanna lots cables on the stage ground. I really wonder if you had have chance to hooked up to parelle fx of wet sounds such as like using minimixer, please share expreiencing
Lol, "don't want it to choke out any of the notes I'm TRYING to play". You don't try to play notes brother you smash everyone effortlessly. Brandon is the GOAT of our decade.
Hi Brandon. I'm Tim. I'm 63 and a guitar player myself and have been playing since the late 70s. I'm not a huge fan of your band and no offense, but I am a huge fan of your playing and gear. Especially your guitars man. Very cool and I love the Floyds you use that I think you said were from Turkey or something in another video? Anyway, very cool kind sir and I dig your playing a lot man. ❤
The man, the myth, the legend himself!!! 😄🖤
Please make this guitar another signature for him! It looks so good!
I've seen how many guitars he has and I think it's reasonable that we all start calling him Brandon E. Jackson moving forward.
Brand on Jackson... if that ain't some simulation shit
@@jacksonguitarsusa PLEASE MAKE MORE Brandon PRO MODELS.
Please buy charvel again and bring back pointy charvels PLEEEEASE ❤️🥺
I love Brandon does these himself instead of needing an annoying TH-cam channel and even worse host.
The hosts on some of those gear channels are unbearable.
... Sorry, *most of those channels.
@@Jeffmetal42 yuh. Can think of a few names.
Ya its awesome that he did this for his own channel
@@__belial__like who?
@@thestuffmikedoes2309My first guess would be Perry from Premier Guitar 😂
Refreshing to see a modern player that still uses real amps
I find it odd people care in the least about that.
If I could magically choose to have the skillz of one guitarist alive today, it would be Brandon Ellis.
Man, that's a tough choice honestly. There are a lot of really good/interesting players out there. Wes Hauch (probably my choice), Malcom Pugh, Dave Davidson, Jonas Bryssling, etc. Hell, Ryan Knight been killing it since he was in Arsis too. Brandon is a certified freak of nature tho.
Practice, practice, practice, and practice my guy
Brandon is slowly becoming my fav guitarist i love the 80s vibe and also the shreddy stuff !
а причем здесь атмосфера 80 ?
@@russianskunk7892 i mean that i like that he has some 80s vibes in his playing
@@krystian_went8537 наверное я от этого далёк. спасибо за ответ :):):) в любом случае мне очень нравится
definitely, love the 80s vibes. Brutal tones, but clean as fuck, and shreds like a maniac. Full package guitarist as far as I'm concerned.
Love that sunless empire solo. You can listen to his solos by themselves and they sound awesome. Kind of the definition of what a solo is literally supposed to be
its a forgotten art these days man. but ppl like brandon show why their should be more shredders in metal.
That solo really emotes, it’s moving to listen to
Every time I see that guitar it blows my mind. One of the coolest guitars ever.
made for one of the coolest players ever
Not available to the public only the 24 fret green and black
Loudest paint job as well
I'm not exaggerating when I say he's the best of his generation.
I used to pay lots of money to Florida dominatrix to humiliate me and put me to shame but after discovering this guitar mastery I received more shame and humiliation than that dominatrix ever did now I save so much money probably gonna buy 3 of his signature guitar with it

Legendary! Thanks Brandon from all of us at Two notes! Killer Rig!
still get goosebumps when I krank up the solo for sunless empire. especially during that last down and up run.
Probably one of the sickest guitars In existence 😮💨
Just the right amount of delay on that lead sound. Nice setup.
I have two Jackson guitars because of Brandon. His talent is super inspiring!
I love checking out other dudes’ rigs HELLLL YEAH BROTHER!
I'd love to check out your rig you musky hunk
BRANDON THE LEGEND! Please bro give us louder guitar for the album servitude it's buried in the mix😂😭
Just focus on the guitar.
That's a really cool and reasonably simple set-up. Definitely clever. Thanks man!
So sick!! New fan here and I can't wait for Bloodstock 2025!!
Definitely gonna get that midi foot switch looks sick! Brandon Ellis is one of the best guitarists out there! I’m always checking out his videos for inspiration!
Dude the new track, Mammoth's Hand, has such an incredible solo. Brandon always steps it up, love to see a playthrough🤘
A wild Marshall appearance. It is worth noting that I also happen to be wearing my recently acquired Wretched shirt. Was so awesome seeing them live again! 💪🤘
Brandon knows is stuff! He's tone is always on spot and the dude plays like hell!!
What an amazing rig. Smart and innovative way to do it. Cheers Brandon!! Keep inspiring
Plays the most insane lead in a dead silent venue and then just says "cool" like it's nothing. My god that's a amazing sound, I can almost feel it from my speakers
This is one of the best and most concise rig rundowns I’ve ever seen. Thanks duder 🔥
Love the setup. Almost expecting a “we are running a Quad Cortex. Here are the amp blocks in running….”
It warms my heart that there are still shredders out there that are die hard real amp and gear heads! I just wanna say how cool this is and I'm nerding out on your gear hardcore 😂🤘
blending the sound of the IR with the mic ist quite interesting, awesome idea
You are Definitely my favorite guitarist on internet your always practicing new things to keep it interesting
He actually stands out, he truly has his own sound. You just know it's an Ellis solo when you hear it. His tone and vibrato are 100% his own 🤙
top10 metal guitarist in the world right now. So glad TBDM decided to go on and not quit, there are still history to be made.
Even though you’re using the 5150iii on that leg of the tour, cool to hear and see you guys having used the Iconic on the road. Not sure why that amp caught so much crap at first but it’s such a killer amp particularly for the price point.
@@K707OR30 all the video I see of the iconic sounded shit. Just good for powering a tone x or something like that.
@@mrjoe9308 “all the video i see” you could try, you know…playing one.
Thats cool simple rig and powerful signal, i hope Ryan get update video rigrundown to do.. love tbdm from Indonesian 👽
@Brandon Ellis you work so hard on everything and practice constantly and that is why you are such an amazing guitar player now in my opinion.
I enjoyed every bit of the demonstration. Keep it up! I am very much looking forward to the new album and what you have in store for us this time around ✌️
Awesome vid. Always love these, time to try a phaser pedal now 😎
The tone is freakin sharp. And the sustain is unreal.
I can’t say enough great things about Brandon, I just adore his playing. I am SO looking forward to the newest album but omg I only just started listening to the last couple he’s been on with TBDM. Can’t get enough Brandon Ellis!
Sustainers are so underrated, when used at the right time they can sound insane.
brandon, your musicality is amazing, i dont want to bash your band but you are the one making it what it is and i would love for you to do an unlimited classical high gain guitar peices
ты лучший в мире гитарист. нет никого кто бы играл так быстро и так чисто. спасибо что ты есть
Thanks for sharing your setup, absolutely fascinating. Your tone is incredible.
My buddy Jordan runs Highwind and his direwolf pedals are sick. Crazy to see it in your rack.
Sweet tones ! Glad you guys are still using real amps. Let the metal flow 🤘
I understand the convenience of touring w no amps, but it really sucks for the people in front of the stage when there are no amps on stage. I appreciate when bands still at least have a cab/amp on stage.
I played your Jackson in a pro series and freaking loved it. Can’t even imagine how lovely the custom shop one is.
That Sunless Empire solo… so dope to hear it splashing around in that big empty room!!
What a treat this was man!
soooo looking forward to the show in Italy. Bro, you and the Knight buddy are legends
I was at that Dublin show! They absolutely crushed it that night!
I like as you mentioned the mix of digital convenience while still using your pedals and amps 👍
Yeah buddy. Thanks for sharing!
Great info. Thanks!🤓
Brandon is a beast leave him alone unless granted..
Have you tried using noise gates with key inputs? The ISP Decimator Pro Rack G might or even something like the BOSS NS-2 might give you the results you want without having 2 separate pedals.
Appreciate you taking the time to do this - thanks to you and the team for keeping TBDM going!
They are not running at the same time, it is either or, for 2 different settings
Damn I geeked out on this shit lol Thanks for sharing your pedal chain because I’ve always wondered how you had your setup for leads and rhythms and which noise gates to switch to,my bro good shit!🙏🏽🤙🏽

A must needed video like this 🤘 been a while since something cool
Hey Brandon, big fan here…
You really should do a complete rig rundown, would love it!
Cheers!
These are always good. In my opinion anyway. I’m not really a Kelly fan, although they are starting to grow on me, but that finish paired with the maple board and black stone inlays looks absolutely killer 👌.
such a dope tone.
Talent beyond talent
Thank you!
Super sick bro!
Beast vibrato as always
Dude Brandon's the fucking man!🤘 I've never wanted to be a Jackson guy harder than seeing that Kelly, 27 frets! (My lack of lead skills doesn't warrant it 😅) I at least need to put one of those pickups in one of my guitars for fucksake it's so sick!!
What about miscellaneous items like picks, strings, etc...Love this video and all the information. Thank you for taking the time to make it.
any chance of releasing that guitar as a signature release? That neck pickup sounds fun!
That guitar really is insane!
That was WAY cool!
💪😎🤘
amazing rig. super utilitarian. i really wish i didnt have to dance on my stomp boxes LOL

That Kelly looks fucking awesome, love the look of it and it sounds awesome as well
I love it.
I can’t believe that I need two noise gates now. lol see you in Seattle Brandon 🤘🏽
Sick.
Copying presets to the surrounding banks?!!? GENIUS! How have I never heard this tip before?!
@brandonellis Love how simple you've made this rig. Groovy.
When are you going to bring that Holoflash Jackson out!
Sigh. I want that guitar.🤘
I fucking love this Man.
legend
**rips the most epic lead to have ever existed**
"cool"
Hell yeah, duder
Lol, "don't want it to choke out any of the notes I'm TRYING to play". You don't try to play notes brother you smash everyone effortlessly. Brandon is the GOAT of our decade.
custom jackson available when? I love the black and gold
Jackson Guitars 💯
That's a cool rig. Simple, but . . .
wickedpawn is the future
Jackson Guitars 💯💯🤘🤘
Rad!

Yayyy
It's the improvising solo at the end for me
Fuck yeah
Man a helix or an axe fx as effect Unit would save so much wiring 😁 but i understand that real pedals Can be fun. Sounds Amazing
Hi Brandon. I'm Tim. I'm 63 and a guitar player myself and have been playing since the late 70s. I'm not a huge fan of your band and no offense, but I am a huge fan of your playing and gear. Especially your guitars man. Very cool and I love the Floyds you use that I think you said were from Turkey or something in another video? Anyway, very cool kind sir and I dig your playing a lot man. ❤
the brand is called hantug!
Huntag Titanium locking bridge and they have been perpetually out of stock for years....cost $1000 when they were in stock. Titanium is expensive lol.
