Loving my squire with HSS stock pickups... The humbucker in the bridge is extremely aggressive for no reason but I love it, you can play all the 80's Dokken style bands no problem. The best tone is when you combine the H with S (2nd position). the rest of the pick ups is good too, you get that classic Stratocaster-ish single coil vibe. Of course they're not perfect you can get much better tone from professional pickups, but they will cost you the price of the whole guitar. Though these stock pick ups get the job done and most of the audience won't even notice they're cheap. One last thing: the woods.. they're amazing comparable to real Fender guitars, honestly it's the best neck I've ever touched even comparing to other guitars I've played that cost more than 1K in €. There's nothing on the market that gives you so much quality for that price
I'd say it's not so much a scam as "diminishing returns." Your amp, speakers and pickups always do the heavy lifting, everything else only adds tiny differs that few people will notice, particularly in hard rock and metal, where the distortion and other effects hides many sins. But you'll notice the differences tonewood makes on acoustic instruments and cleaner electric sounds. Basically, if you're going to play mostly distorted, invest in a good amp and save on the guitar.
@@f3rny_66 that and amp and settings. Then effects of course. I’ve often thought about finding a cheaper guitar that feels good and plays well and then upgrading pickups and anything else. See if I can do it cheaper than a more expensive guitar
You’d be amazed at the high gain tones that can be gotten out of a single coil - it can take a bit more gain on the amp end, and leads to a bit more noise, but is so worth it - a super unique metal rhythm guitar tone, for sure
@@DBMorris I picked the Squier because i just listened to this video the first time and liked that extra clarity but once i seen it was a Squier it did not sound as good? I proved a point to myself. I am biased by my eyes.
The Mustaine sounds MONSTROUS, and the EVH isn't far behind. I expected to like the Merrow more than I did. Maybe it needs a different amp behind it. Great vid Ola 👌
I guess what Glen Fricker said is true. Guitarist hear with their eyes. This just hammers the knowledge home that its literally everything else that affects your "tone" besodes what pickups you have. All ten of these sound nearly identical, to an indistinguishable level. Play these again in mixed up order with no visuals, and not one person will know which guitar is which. Guranteed. Thanks for the video Ola! 🤘🏻
I wasn’t watching the video and could hear differences. I’m pretty sure Glen thinks guitars are supposed to sound wildly different from each other. As if it’s different instruments. The differences are subtle but make a big difference in a mix. Glen wouldn’t know that because his ear for mixing isn’t good
They all sound similar and the average audience could not tell the difference, but "nearly identical, to an indistinguishable level"? Skip between them and there are differences. And the more you dive into a topic the more small things matter. Also, since when is it the point to pick a guitar out of a croud just by listening?
These were always the best type of videos you made (imo), not to take away from you the cool and funny antics that show Ola's down to Earth side, but, there's just something about seeing you do what you do better than most. I kinda miss the early days of Ola showing us no B.S. demo vids.
Paul Reed Smith when he sees this video: 😡 In all seriousness, killer video dude! You've done the best job of showing that the amp/pedals/mic etc. are the great equaliser when it comes to tone. I always feel like the guitar part should come down to playability first and foremost. Thanks bro!
Doing PRS a favor by not featuring it because then everyone would think PRS is the same. That brand has a certain mystique behind it and it’s advertised as being the guitar player’s guitar. When in reality it’s literally the same as every other brand.
Nothing in this video refutes what Paul says and stands for. Everyone who advocates for tonewood (facts), acknowledges that the more compression and distortion, the less you can tell the difference, the more the nuances disappear. Needless PRS hate for the sake of it.
@@adriansoul7223 PRS deserves hate for comparing solid-body electric guitars and acoustic violins as if there were any useful similarities, and saying that it stands to reason solid "tonewood" guitar bodies are a good idea because "the instrument matters." He understands the physics well enough by now to know that's just profoundly false, and he is obviously LYING FOR MONEY. PRS IS A LYING WEASEL.
Cool riffs! It's good to see ESP coming back into the limelight. I love ESP guitars and my ESP Standard Black Explorer that I bought around 2002 was my first "real love" when it comes to guitars. Recorded and played a lot live with that one.
Gotta love Ola's playing technique. A MEGA solid right hand which makes all the difference in the world because he's so good at articulating every stroke. That makes every guitar in this clip sound fat as hell and good to go recording with. It's in the hands as well as the equipment...
They all sound great, because you are an amazing player and tone crafter, but I slightly liked the ESP and Washburn more. As a beginner guitarist I think that wat matters most is that the guitar is comfortable and makes you want to pick it up and play. And let's not forget the most important thing of all: having fun!
Yup, those three, plus the EVH sounded brighter, more forward, than most. While you can tame brightness, it's much harder to add what isn't there, so I'd err on the side of slightly bright. But it's really differences of 1% or so overall.
@@GeoffModulate I'd say it's like 10%, but I agree. It's always safer/easier to take away when you have too much than to add what isn't there! You can always EQ something _out_ much better.
This once again shows the amp to be the deciding factor in a metal setting at least. The mustain really stood out. Fun video. Do more! You must have a 100 guitars.
To me, the Mustaine is the winner. Incredible sound. The EVH and the Charvel right after and, yes, I have to admit that I LOVED that single coil sound from the Squier too so I put it in the 4th place just because of the impressive sound you can get for that price !
The Squier sounds really good in the mix im suprised. Also good to see the classic ola's MTM2 guitar, thankyou for all the gear demos back in the day man.
This pretty much backs up what Glenn @SpectreSound has been saying that for distorted tones, 'in the mix', there really isn't much difference between any of the pickups.
even without the mix, I can't notice much difference. There's an extra aggression with the Mustaine and the first dimebag one e.g. but I imagine you can just change some presence or add a boost pedal/EQ with more mids or sth to get that with the others?
100% yup. I'm sure every one of these guitars feels and plays completely different, but in a mix they are virtually indistinguishable. And yet I still lust for new guitars...
I think the biggest difference was with the Mustaine guitar, for whatever reason. And the single coil, I guess, but not as much as I would have thought. It would be interesting to hear how they all sound with the output level matched.
Ola PLEASE, a whole video on how you mic up your amp, what kind of mics you use, the placement, DAW you use, what you tweak on the DAW usually, and tutorial on how to record and upload such a great tone!!
the thrash factors in the Mustaine V sounded best to my ears - but very minor differences in tones overall - probably could be made to same the same with EQ (except the single coils in the strat)
That Gibson DM sounds amazing. I'm in my 50s and everytime I've seen metal played on a Strat makes me go, "Whoa..." I'll never get used to it, lol. That Schecter sounded rad as well.
@@mrhyde2250 That's the usual problem with guitar players: They are very susceptible for every guitar sound voodoo bullshit while the audience doesn't give a shit at all. No one cares for such "differences". No one.
That proves that the guitar's tone it's made by the amp, the cab and your style of playing, not what kind of guitar you are playing to. The mics, as Glenn Flicker said, if they're similar (humbuckers vs humbuckers), the difference is barely audible but not that you can distinguish right away between them. But the Squier, with those single coils, proves that, in this case, a solid approach, a really solid performance as Ola has, can make all type of guitars sound pretty equal.
As much as I hate to admit it, I liked the Gibson the best XD. The Schechter sounded very similar, the Skervesen ripped and the Squier Bullet gets an honorable mention for biggest surprise.
As Im not listening to this through a shit hot set of studio monitors its REALLY hard to tell them apart. They all sounded killer. Love me a B.C Rich so the Warlock sounded sick AF due to bias. Awsome riff through an awesome rig.
@@victortesla4198 great point! i think the differences would be a lot bigger with a more distinguishable sound like edge of breakup or something like that
When you guys flip between 0:42 and 2:12, those sound the same to you and are hard to tell apart? There's a pretty big difference in the low end, high end, and clarity to me. I'm not saying it sounds particularly dark and muddy compared to the average, but the latter of those two is significantly darker and muddier than the former.
I listened to a few of them over again a couple times and the ESP and Dave Mustaine Gibson personally appeal to me the most. With the ESP taking top honors with the 81 pick up
They all sound great through that rig. Only strong differences were output levels driving slightly different saturations. Beyond that, they all sounded alike. Who'd have thought!
dude this video is fkn awesome. So much information in such tight and succinct presentation. Imma hafta watch it a handful of times to wrap my head around all the tones lol
Was asked to do this blindfolded. The Ibanez came out on top for me. When I found out it was equipped with a Dimebucker, made total sense, it’s what I hear almost everyday.
madness from Ola as usual. all these guitars sound pretty great, even the strat. I think the Gibson was the chunkiest. one thing though, the intro is literally PLUCK by System LOL
I love the fact that I have been de-programmed by SMG and know that these guitars all sound pretty much the same and this video is an exercise in how awesome Ola is as a player and mixer.
@@spy-v-spy1848 You wouldn't have to route the neck area of the body, under that Pickguard is a H-S-H route all you would need to do is get a HH pickguard from Warmoth.

I've been recording a couple of metal tracks with a SSS strat. Honestly, it sits in the mix almost nicer than a humbucker since the sound is a bit thinner and more defined ... but can still be metal AF!
Kudos to the Squier Bullet for totally doing the job. Honestly those Squier have become really good.
It didn’t sound significantly worse for the value difference at all. I think it’s the pickups doing most of the heavy lifting in these guitars

That was my thoughts as well. I was really surprised by the Squier.
Ceramic magnets in those cheap squire pickups help them sound decent with high gain.

The one thing that isn't being commented on enough is Ola's wickedly consistent playing between ten guitars and who knows how many takes!
Funny, I was just thinking the same thing. He's nailing that riff time after time.
I wasn't expecting that but I actually loved that Mustaine one! The Skervensen was amazing too with that BareKnuckle
Its the gibson sound! the pickup is closer to the bridge and gives it an aggressiveness that other brands don't have!
Same here. Even im not a big MD fan. But that guitar has balls.
Agreed!
@@pedrolourenco2707 must be why i love SG's so much
Agree!
The Dave Mustaine one is killing it!
It better be for the price lol
😂😂😂😂😂
Well, Glenn Fricker doesn't agree though😂
Sounded the best imo. Especially for a thrashy track like that
It does sound the best IMO
I can’t believe a $200 bullet Squier Strat, with single coils sounded that good for that style of music! 👍🏼
It's because for high gain sounds the amp and cab always matter way more than the guitar or the pickups.
You can tell the Mustaine was built to be played through a Marshall. Sounds lethal.
The Mustaine sounds MONSTROUS, and the EVH isn't far behind. I expected to like the Merrow more than I did. Maybe it needs a different amp behind it. Great vid Ola 👌
To me they pretty much sounded the same, except the Mustaine V, which had a bigger bolder sound. I love the look of the Skervesen, it's beautiful.
The Mustaine sound cuts so damn good

The Gibson V Dave Mustaine takes the cake IMO, What a fantastic video!
I was hoping there would be a solar included but I appreciate that Ola doesn’t only promote his brand
All of them sound great through that rig ! I like the ESP the best.
The Skervesen Swan sounds KILLER! Love me a good o' biting and punchy tone!
Thank you Ola, this proves a point in my searching for guitar tone, it's the amp and its speaker.
That mustain guitar actually sounds awesome.. I might have to look into a thrash factor pickup
The EVH had a sound that has me about to swap out my stock pickups with Wolfgang pickups. Great video.

Mustaine V, Schecter and Swan were my favs in that order. They all sounded great though, because technique+amp is more important than guitar IMO.
Love how similar and good they all sound
True, tbh nobody could probably tell them apart all in a blind test.
I've noticed it too. Probably because the sound depends on the amp, rather than the guitar.
Even the squire sounded brutal.Its the amp and the picking for me.
@@CureEclipse11 yup as Glen from SMG is saying all the time no you don't need to change pickups but speaker/amp if you want masive tone upgrade
@@CureEclipse11 Not the amp, amps also only make a small difference. The biggest diff is the speaker/cabinet
Man that Dave Mustaine V is killing it I regret selling my Dean V I used to own it was a beast in Drop A#
Yea It sounded great, I also had a Dean Mustaine model that I sold and wish I still had.
surprised by the Squire but ...
That Dave Mustaine one is a banger !!
To me the Thrash Factors sound the best, followed surprisingly by the Squier! And then the Bare Knuckle.
This was awesome to watch!! And listen to. I could listen to you play this riff with the drums for a good while
The ESP M-II is such a metal classic.
All of them sounds killer.
In an aesthetic point of view … omg the Charvel … it drive me nuts !!!

Skervesen nr1 followed closely by Mustaine nr2. Those 2 are killing it.
I was expecting smaller differences. But the Dave Mustaine sig absolutely RIPPS 😲
Glad this video shines some light on how influential scale length is to sound, probably more so than pickup choice
I loved how all those different guitars sound exactly the same.
😂
