    I'm a keyboard player learning guitar... boy, I always made fun of guitarists because I thought all guitarists needed to learn were shapes and then they play, but now that i'm working on it myself, sound sources are vast! Not just pedals, but pickups, strings, body, amp, light touch, hard playing... so much that can be done to make a certain sound. And it's so tactile! it's going to take me years to master. Thanks for the video!

    • @hawedehre
      @hawedehre 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      yes exactly. From 🎹 to 🎸 is tough. If you buy a good keyboards and speakers or headphones your „sound“ will be good from day one. regardless how good you play. guitar drives me nuts. how to fret that it is not snarly, where to pick. how to pick with which plektrum. one amp sounds good with pedals x and pickup y, the other not. then the whole impedance mess from pickup, pots, cable to the cab. it is a true nightmare. with keys you have line out and it works with your mixer, interface and whatever. the electric guitar world is an absolute mess, where thousands of people must have gone mad to accomplish a certain tone and wasted thousands on gear until you find a acceptable setup. lucky who has a tolerant guitar store where you can try before buy.

    • @7stringslinger74
      @7stringslinger74 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Not only that, and not to diminish the skill it takes to play the piano well, but when playing piano, you're only playing linearly, and a chord in a certain position can only be played in that position. On a guitar, you're playing across and up and down, with the same note in multiple places. And you can finger the exact same chord in multiple positions, each with a different timbre. Gives you a lot more options, but can be a lot more confusing!

  • @michaelinglis567
    @michaelinglis567 4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Those Shuguang "chinese" 12ax7b's are actually great preamp tubes. They aren't too bass heavy or bright and keep everything nice and tight. Marshall ships their DSL100HR's with a low noise jj ecc83 in v1 (the only JJ tube I've ever really liked was the v1 stock low noise selected JJ ecc83 in my DSL100HR) and then 3 shuguang 12ax7b's for (v2 v3 v4). I love EHX EL34 power tubes and that's all I'll use for Marshalls (massive improvement over the mushy flubby low end you get with JJ EL34'S, I've tried countless JJ el34s and they all negatively affected the amps I put them in. But when I got my new DSL I tried every preamp tube you could imagine sovteks, tung sol, mullard 12ax7 and cv4004's, EHX etc. But the stock low noise JJ ECC83 with the 3 shuguang 12ax7b's always sounded best. Now I have one if my best Mullard CV4004's in v2 but that's just for a bit fuller tone not so much better just different. Anyways I just wanted to point out that there's a reason so many amp manufacturers are using 12ax7b's and it's not just cause they are cheap. Anyways if anyone reading this is about to roll tubes I suggest picking up a few 12ax7b's they really are worth considering for their sound quality. The fact that they are likely some of the cheapest preamp tubes on the market is just a bonus. They are high gain and in my amps they always sound very balanced. The problem with some tubes is they are either too bright (tung sol) or too warm (mullard 12ax7's /cv4004) and sometimes that's just what your amp needs. But I've found that most of the time a balanced tube like the 12ax7b is just the ticket.

      I was initially looking at a vh2 or possibly a vh4, because I primarily play hard rock/metal. But when I decided on the vh4 was when I heard channel 2. That totally sold me. It's definitely the part of the vh4 no one talks about and the owners of them really appreciate the most.
      Yes, if you just wanna do brutal chugs, the vh2 will do just fine for you, but otherwise, the 4 is SO worth the extra money.

    I have a JCM800 with Ruby tube's.
    I use a Mesa Boogie cabinet with two 90 black Shadows.
    I also use a Vox SE Tonelab pedalboard- plenty of volume,
    and lots of control.
    I think you can actually plug that Vox
    into almost any amp and it'll model whatever sound you're looking for.
    No plugs, no batteries.
    Try plugging one straight into a PA.

      Stuart Tayler noice! In the plugin they have 120 different “recording chains”, basically IRs, with a description of the cab, its speakers and the preamp and EQ used to capture the tone. There are quite a few Mesa 4x12 chains in there! To me the best starting point is usually channel three with the 1st IR (for some odd reason the default preset loads the 9th one which is a lot darker). Plugin alliance extended their trials to 30 days and it’s also in their $10 a month bundle

    Nice demo! I remember the first time I tried an SLO in Hollywood in '86. Word was getting around about these things and I needed to try one. It sounded unbelievable. I'd say the SLO is to the Marshall what the Dumble OS is to Fenders, just the ultimate, the Marshall tone perfected with amazing headroom and build quality. But when I found out the price I almost cried. I was thirteen and couldn't even afford the Peavey solid state my dad got me for my birthday. I've tried Diezels and they are amazing. Also love Bogners and VHT/Fryette Pitbulls, etc. I owned a Boogie 50 cal but that was the only Boogie I could stand. They are just not my cup of tea.

    Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeet! Monster tones from that amp. I’m really impressed with the lower gain tones also. I had heard that the VH4 could do it all but this is the best demonstration I have seen of that. Thanks Tim. Have an amazing day! 😊🤟🏽

    Saw a guy playing a VH4 in a tiny dive bar doing rock and metal covers with a 4 piece band. I think all his gear was worth more than the building. But it was one of the best sounding live amps I've ever heard. He only had a small pedal board for wah, chorus, etc.
