I agree. The model john is playing in this video looks nearly identical to the TAO. Minus the lack of a tone pot & chrome pickup pole screws. This model was most likely a prototype & I doubt we'll ever see It in mass production. But I love the purple burst top! On second thought, I think I recall john saying, "schecter got this guitar right on the first try" when he was speaking on the TAO's release. So I could be wrong
Wake up babe, new Browne amp video dropped Also I unironically love the clean channel on my 6505MH lmao. Guess I've learned from the school of Drew Goddard (though he tolerates it more than anything)
Sounds fantastic. 8 string looks and sounds great and the guitar & amp combo for metal tones is hard to beat 4 sure. Thank you for the review and I hope to see that 8 string released soon because I want to see what your USA will come out to be, but whatever it is, it looks and sounds killer. Great job.
this will just go around in circles the next weeks on every gear related channel apparently as usual and will also takes months to years to be available in germany..as usual 🤣🙈
Still the GOAT. I bought a Tao-6 and it's been what I've been looking for in terms of what a guitar should sound like in my head for years, even after bumping around very boutique guitars. You just got the sauce for this stuff
@@JohnBrownemonuments I was already looking at a USA merrow solely because I wanted a qatsi and they're almost unobtainable in the US below 4 grand, so I guess it was just perfect timing that you changed over to what I was already looking at with a better guitar I'm fully expecting to be back on the ramen diet once a USA production model inevitably comes
I'm the guy using the 5150 and 6505 for the clean channel. I mean, not just for that of course, but for my stoner band, it's hard to beat the clean of my 6505 as a pedal platform for preamps and overdrives!
Seem’s good, but I’m a 70s born guy, and no matter what I just can’t get used to a guitar that is tuned to, or sound’s like a bass guitar plugged into a guitar amp. Each to their own. 🤘
it was a good decision to keep my peavey 50/50 poweramps apparently, the synergy syn 5050 is not to great at all imo...i`m also looking forward to hear how it sounds with the syn 50 head when it will be available in the EU in 2025!? 🥺
Man, your ears are pretty finely tuned! What are you hearing that leads you to this conclusion? Is negative feedback adjustable, like bias? Asking both in a general sense but wondering if it relates to the internal three position switch on these modules.
Silly question (Absolutely love the tone and how it sounds, absolutely fat!) But off topic! Where the hell do you get your AWESOME trousers Browne? Keep seeing you wear them and become more and more eager to get my hands on some! Best guitarist in the game in my opinion, massive fan and hope to see you live one day!
Baso - Mayones stopped producing the bridge that browne used for his 7/8 string sigs, so he fucked them off and joined schecter who provided a similar spec model
Oh cool I didn't know about Synergy, I see they're doing the same thing as that Randall modular amp design from a long time ago. Neat, I was wondering if anyone would pick up that design.
we've been waiting for a 5150/6505 module since synergy launched. I ordered one today from sweetwater. I wonder how many months I'll have to wait for it to arrive!
Seeing this video on my birthday was an awesome surprise, always good to hear you play, this sounds absolutely awesome, congrats on the new guitar, hope you come back to Vancouver again.
@@JohnBrownemonuments 😅pardon for my mistake, let me rephrase it. Will you do a comparison of that 8 string Schecter guitar with one of your Mayones? Just like the one you did with Solar Guitars :)
ปีที่แล้ว
Try some Bethametasone, Clotrimazole, Gentramicin on the hands, got the same thing under control in no time.
It was fantastic meeting you in Glasgow on the Leprous x Kalandra Tour dude, hope you guys are all recovered now! Would you replace the Soldano or the Bogner with this new 5150 module? (Bogner right? bc Soldano is God!)
why did i sell my 5150 mk1 ? i d o n o t k n o w . Back then a maid fed the amp with a can of beer,,,,, and unbelievably Peavy repaired it for free! A true raw beast of an amp!
I think it must be a prototype; Since the headstock is marked "Diamond Series", Schecter puts this on their import models, it's a shame it's not available because it looks amazing!
Neh I sold my Synergy system, just not the thing for me. I was really missing character specially for recording. I didn’t like the little baby knobs either.
Yes! It’s a been a while and I am so happy to open my TH-cam app and see Browne at the top of my feed!
Sounds great as always
So excited to see you back making videos! One of my favorite guitarists that does demos right 🤘
this sounds great mate well done!
Glad you enjoy it!
John, please, we need TAO in that color
Just sand it

Probs the USA version they are sorting out for him
@@MrBigggs this exactly. Artists can say their models are the same, but that’s hardly ever factual. It’s probably one from the custom shop.
@@thisguy2973 nah this was the Korean prototype notice the different contours
The TOAN is so good. The 8 string chugs made my monitors shake the table so much wtf
poor isolation hoss
Hey, John. We drank beers on a sidewalk in Trenton, NJ. Good times. This tone sounds sick. 🤘🤘
Damn, only played Trenton once so that was 9 years ago….
Welcome back from the amazing tour king! I need one of your sig guitars :)
Dude! 2 days ago I checked your channel to see what's up and was disappointed it wasn't that active.
Now this! Whoohoo
As much as I'm into the gear comparisons, those trousers are FLYYYY!!!!!!
Good to see you're back making the videos.
Glad you like them! Demobaza rules
Wake up babe, new Browne amp video dropped
Also I unironically love the clean channel on my 6505MH lmao. Guess I've learned from the school of Drew Goddard (though he tolerates it more than anything)
Cool to John back in one of these. Sounded pretty tight.
Thanks for listening
@@JohnBrownemonuments always do!!
Oh, please tell me that color scheme on the Schecter’s gonna be available to buy sometime. So classy.
new Browne video. It's gunna be a good day
Stoked to see that 8 string in your hands. Massive tones from the synergy. Are there plans to bring this purple burst to your production models?
Agreed. Great vid! More 8 action 🙏🤘🏼
if they bring out the purple burst that might fully sell me on the new sig. loved everything about it except the color, which just didn't pop enough.
I'm more interested in those pants! JKJKJK Sounds great, especially when you're the one behind the controls
guitar looks amazing wtf
Ermagherd he’s back!
omg John Browne omg!
its good to see you brother. The Tao is amazing
John's pants remind me of iori yagami

I'm so distracted by those pants 😂
Dat schecter doe 😱😱😱🔥🔥🔥🔥
WE NEED A TAO IN THAT FINISH!!!
this will just go around in circles the next weeks on every gear related channel apparently as usual and will also takes months to years to be available in germany..as usual 🤣🙈
You forgot there’s a 3 way selector internally that changes the feel and subtly tone wise.
Still the GOAT. I bought a Tao-6 and it's been what I've been looking for in terms of what a guitar should sound like in my head for years, even after bumping around very boutique guitars. You just got the sauce for this stuff
Yeh it’s a great guitar isn’t it, Schecter did a great job
@@JohnBrownemonuments I was already looking at a USA merrow solely because I wanted a qatsi and they're almost unobtainable in the US below 4 grand, so I guess it was just perfect timing that you changed over to what I was already looking at with a better guitar

Hi, where can i find the john browne lessons that where on riffhard?
what the hell are those pants? lmao
John can you do a making of / reflections on the making of the amanuensis?
I'm the guy using the 5150 and 6505 for the clean channel.
I mean, not just for that of course, but for my stoner band, it's hard to beat the clean of my 6505 as a pedal platform for preamps and overdrives!
Here in case you play that intro riff of the upcoming new Monuments song lol been stuck in my head since your livestream
i know it has nothing to do with the video, but i'm really digging John's outfits lately. Looks like a guitar master from dune or something
We need a video of your top 5 favorite amps already!
John I thought you used the Mesa Road King on In Stasis. Did the guitars end up getting reamped with a 5150 or did George use Archetype: Nolly?
There’s parts of in stasis quad tracked with 5150 and then overlayed with road king,
I don’t give DI’s 🤣
@@JohnBrownemonuments Good man John! Committing to a sound and not allowing changes brings a liveliness to the record.
Those pants look like they belong on the set of the 5th Element.
Woooo a new video!!!! Will we ever see a playthrough for no one will teach you?
Only here for the riffs🤘
Talk about a rare feeling seeing a FRESH john browne vid, blessed
great comparision
Hope you are back with some vids soon!
Is something wrong with his neck?
Seem’s good, but I’m a 70s born guy, and no matter what I just can’t get used to a guitar that is tuned to, or sound’s like a bass guitar plugged into a guitar amp.
Each to their own. 🤘
Just being off-topic which amp do you like for thrash the Mr. Hecto or the Savage 120
Dude those pants are 🔥 Love the new Schecter BTW!!!🤘
yeah i want to know where he got them from haha
Forget the rig rundown... Tell us about those JEANS, my guy!
Brother Browne - the Reigning King of Tone and Thread
The modual sounds tighter and clearer than the amp. How does it compare to the SLO modual as the 5150 was based on the Slo?
Curious too !
@@yannicklherron2315 Check out pete thorns video, he does a comparison. TLDW the 6505 is tighter a bit more scooped and chunkier
Where did you get that vertical pedalboard from, looks great!
He is back!
it was a good decision to keep my peavey 50/50 poweramps apparently, the synergy syn 5050 is not to great at all imo...i`m also looking forward to hear how it sounds with the syn 50 head when it will be available in the EU in 2025!? 🥺
Good choice!
Could also be that the 5150 head is configured with a tad bit more negative feedback than the synergy counterpart. At least sounds like it!
Man, your ears are pretty finely tuned! What are you hearing that leads you to this conclusion? Is negative feedback adjustable, like bias?
Asking both in a general sense but wondering if it relates to the internal three position switch on these modules.
Looking for an Orion 32+ gen 4 review
Silly question (Absolutely love the tone and how it sounds, absolutely fat!) But off topic! Where the hell do you get your AWESOME trousers Browne? Keep seeing you wear them and become more and more eager to get my hands on some!
Best guitarist in the game in my opinion, massive fan and hope to see you live one day!
dude those jeans are awesome!! what are they?!?!
Hey John, forgive me if you have mentioned this previously before but why the switch from Mayone to Schecter?
Baso - Mayones stopped producing the bridge that browne used for his 7/8 string sigs, so he fucked them off and joined schecter who provided a similar spec model
Oh cool I didn't know about Synergy, I see they're doing the same thing as that Randall modular amp design from a long time ago. Neat, I was wondering if anyone would pick up that design.
Randall actually had a hand in the development of this btw iirc
Only here to enjoy John play

Niiice! Was wondering if you’d make a vid. Thanks for this.
Fucking love it 🔥
Where can I get those pants
Demobaza
Will you do an honest review on these like you did with solar guitars?
I’m using the 6505/SLO modules live…is that honest enough? 🤣
@@JohnBrownemonuments 😅pardon for my mistake, let me rephrase it.

Try some Bethametasone, Clotrimazole, Gentramicin on the hands, got the same thing under control in no time.
I've been thinking about using the synergy with the power amp section of my triple rectifier.
It was fantastic meeting you in Glasgow on the Leprous x Kalandra Tour dude, hope you guys are all recovered now! Would you replace the Soldano or the Bogner with this new 5150 module? (Bogner right? bc Soldano is God!)

I don’t think I’ve heard you talk about the 5150 before. Had you used the 5150 before the last record?
Now I had to fire up my 800 and put it on 6 6 6, because metal.
Pretty close but not quite there yet
Such an awesome demo! Using the power side of a real 5150, and the feel is close! Damn!
I wish the Tao would of released in this color!
Im not a gear guy.
Im more impressed by the strangeness of your pants.🎉
The master is back!! 🤟🤟🤟
The housing is so overpriced for the module. They should've made the housing around £150, then people would be far more inclined to buy more modules.
8:40 Jukai?
Ya
Your usual Riffhard link is missing from your description, are you leaving Riffhard?
Is this schecter a custom shop. Don't see that finish on the website
He's mentioned the original prototype has this burst finish but they simplified it on the production model for better consistency.
I think it must be a prototype; Since the headstock is marked "Diamond Series", Schecter puts this on their import models, it's a shame it's not available because it looks amazing!
Nah it’s the prototypes
those are the special pants you get when you want to stop yourself from spontaneously doing the splits all the time
I bought them so I purposefully don’t manspread everywhere
The GOAT
What happened to you man. You just disappeared....you were my hero...😢
We haven't see how you walk in those 'trousers' though.
I know this is going to be an annoying question John but is your 5150 moded at all?
Nope completely stock. Pretty sure the tubes are quite old in it too.
Did you tune that guitar down to H? Sounds horrible.
the original is miles better. its more mid focused and tight and mean. the preamp sounds closed down more like a neck pickup
🖤
Let’s talk about the pantaloons
Sorry John, but I still prefer my Vox AC30 for that gnarly distorted tone
Thats a nicest looking Schecter signature you got there John!
But fuck that pants john. Thats from mad max 😅
Evertune would be very welcome.
Does it come with those pants? Cuz if not, I'm not buying it.
Demobaza for the pants
🤘
Love the video, but my, those are some strange ass pants you've got on there.
I’m dressing for the end of the world of course.
@@JohnBrownemonuments Oh yeah, so it's your naughty nightwear.
wuuuut, no moe MAYONES ?...
that low string made me poo
Neh I sold my Synergy system, just not the thing for me. I was really missing character specially for recording. I didn’t like the little baby knobs either.
bruh those pants
Not sure about those pants man.
🤘🏽🎸🔥
John, please, we need new flux conduct. (Please)
Love the look of these Schechters. Shoulda been the tao sig
