  • review/Demo? Either way thank you for checking out the channel. I must say I absolutely love both the amp and the guitar. The guitar is a little different for me because I usually play PRS Custom 24 which have medium jumbo frets vs. this Gibson with medium. I’m getting used to it so the guitar is staying. I should have however set the guitar up with heavier strings like I’m used to. You will catch some over bends. Thank you for watching and be sure to like and subscribe!

    Thanks for the great demo. I always wanted a gold top Les Paul. That's a very sharp looking guitar.

      equinoxpete Thank you! I’ve been wanting a gold top Les Paul since I first played one in 07. Finally I got around to buying it.

    That amp has fantastic cleans. Almost sounds like Fender sparkle meets Vox chime. This will be my next amp acquisition.

    Beautiful amp and guitar. Friedman are the best amps out on the market, and Dave Friedman is a tone genius! Distortion on your amp is a little over kill. I prefer my Friedman BE-50 Deluxe. Nonetheless, You still have a very nice amp, and I like your playing. I used to live in the Seattle area during the Grunge Era. Awesome time to live there back then. I actually lived on Bainbridge Island, a 30 minute ferryboat ride from Seattle across Puget Sound. I used to work at a place called the Streamliner Diner. Chad Channing, the original drummer from Nirvana worked with me. Cool guy. Another guy by the name of Kevin Wood worked with me. Kevin is the brother of Andy Wood, that was in Mother Love Bone, which became Pearl Jam. Kevin is an amazing guitar player. If your familiar with the song, "Say hello to Heaven", by Temple of the Dog, they refer to Bainbridge Island on there, when they say he came from an island, but died from the streets. I just subscribed to your channel. Looking forward to more of your videos. Have a good one.

      Sonny Seabury thank you for sharing! That is amazing you were there for the grunge era. I know very well of every band you speak of and can’t believe you were just kinda in the mix witnessing the whole development. The 90s were my favorite decade and actually almost moved there when I got out of the military back in 01’. I know that was a little late but, I still have this force pulling me to the West coast haha! I at the least need to visit. My amp was definitely hot for the video and I should have dialed it around. I thank you for the support and look forward to chatting with you in the future!!

    It's a beautiful guitar! I tried this model and it just wasn't what I was looking for. I decided to go with the 2018 Standard heritage cherry sunburst! I tried both and the standard was the one that spoke to me!

    • @chefjlb
      @chefjlb 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I guess it just depends on the personal preference of neck profile you like. I prefer a slimmer neck because of the speed. But it varies with each guitar. You go into a store with a particular model in mind and end up leaving with a different one. I don't buy a guitar just to buy one. It has to have the magic feeling for me. If I pick up a guitar and it feels wrong I don't get it.

    • @awvmusic216
      @awvmusic216  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Jason Bland I agree 100%. The only thing that sucks is when nobody carries what you want locally. Then it’s a gamble when you order. I definitely got lucky with this one

    • @chefjlb
      @chefjlb 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah haven't taken a chance on ordering a guitar yet. You buy a car you've never test driven so I don't buy guitars I've never played on before! Do you live in a small town? No Guitar Center or mom and pop shops?

    @johnkonstantine9115 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Love the Double J and Drop Db. I use a MarkV but I lust after the JJ. I like getting three stages of tone but I think that JJ sounds consistent, unlike my Mark which if I fuck with the settings winds up sounding way different. I also eat power tubes (6L6) MarkV can use either tube ( 6L6- EL34) but I have not tried the latter. Does the JJ have fixed bias? I tried biasing my Marshall once & fried it LOL

  • @RockDrillSuite
    @RockDrillSuite 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I played a 2000 LP Classic and loved the slim profile neck (should have bought it but it was on hold to clear possible theft since it was a trade in), anyway, I’m now looking at the 2019 Classic Gold Top like yours. Nothing local so it will have to be online. I know the differences in pickups but I have to try one.
    I would love the JJ Friedman but it’s not practical. I am waiting for the JJ Junior 20 Watt though!!!
    I applaud your taste in gear. Can’t wait to try the Classic out and the JJ Mini!

    • @awvmusic216
      @awvmusic216  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      RockDrillSuite I love the slim profile neck and had to order mine without trying as well but don’t regret it. I seriously love this guitar! As for the JJ, if it’s anything like it’s big brother (which it sounds like) it will be as well! Good luck and let me know what you think when you get them.
