- - - EVH GEAR GIVEAWAY! - - - Hey dudes, thank you for watching! There's an EVH Gear Giveaway up for grabs on my Instagram @keyanhoushmandlive, head over there for all the details!
@@heavyvibrationstudiopl3256 Yes it is you have to tune the evertune higher than your string"s key then lower the tuner to the key your in & then you can bend but you have to bend higher than usual & that can take some getting used to . This idiot cant play any lead so he probably doesn't know this, its so rude of him not to even addressed you'r comment .So that your answer.
The tone is amazing (as always) but I just wanted to say that you're such an inspiration for me, it's crazy. Everytime I hear you play, I just want to grab my guitar and play for hours until I can have at least 5% of your skills ! Thank you for that ! I'm still trying to get the first section of 'Black' clean ahah ! I swear I'll be able to play that song one day.
DUDEEEE! It's so cool that you used the "Stay" riff you made in the short video. That riff is actually so good a full song would be a blessing but that's too much to ask
Stoked to see more videos showing what the iconic can do, instead of all the negative reviews of it when it first dropped. You got a solid tone out of it. Sounds sick dude!
This was a cool take on gear! I've literally NEVER seen someone try to make a tube amp sound like a plugin (as typically plugins are thin and generic and don't have that UMPH a dimed tube amp has) but you did a killer job and it sounds really good! I was pretty skeptical about where this was going but I'm glad I watched! And you're a sick player btw.
I love my EVH iconic. I feel the green channel has a lot to offer from nice cleans, punchy crunch tones, to high gain rhythm. The red channel is a beast for great tones
I'm with you, I prefer the rhythm tones using the Green channel. I put the crunch gain way up and put the precision in front with 25 percent gain and it's better to my ears
I love my Peavey 5150 (the first made one) it's a MONSTER the bass is so tight it feels like you're getting punched. Here's the thing, I've played 3 5150s... and they all sound different which is cool and scary at the same time
man’s so sweet replying to early commenters, also when this amp dropped i kinda pictured it being all the amp sim guys’ first amp so it’s cool to see that being true
I have been playing since the 80’s and like you this is the best amp I have ever purchased It is just the sound you know it when you hear it It really has inspired me in a way I have not been in so many years! This amp ROCKS!!
I just bought the Iconic combo, and this video is like a dream come true. The amp rocks, but yeah it does need a little help going to that modern territory. Time to bring out the old graphic EQ for that ultra modern sound.
You know, I really want to like this video, but at the time of commenting, you are on 777 likes and my OCD won't let me :) Amp sounds great and I really liked how you went through your setup process. At the end of the day, if you can get the sound out of any amp/pedals/cab that matches what you want to hear in your head - it's a win.
I didn't like the sound of the stock 5150 Iconic amp (sounded to woofy), but with pedals it sounds really good. My favourite amp 5150 amp is the EVH 50W/100W Stealth. I played it a few times and it doesn't need a pedal to get a great tone.
With low tunings and extended range guitars it’s very rare to not need an overdrive at the front. The 5150Iconic sounds really good by itself with my 6 string in drop C, the purr is great!
@@KeyanHoushmandLive true. Even if a an amp sounds good with a low tuned guitar, it always sounds better with a pedal. I've noticed the iconic amps are trying to replicate the Original 5150 amps, which have that nice midrangey purr. It's a great amp you got there!
@@KeyanHoushmandLive You might be interested in an amp called the bluguitar amp1 iridium. It can cover most guitar tones but the metal tone is super tight. video link: th-cam.com/video/xktyqmua3_Y/w-d-xo.html Timestamp: 1:58
I bought both the EL34 and the 6L6 last Saturday. I set them both up next to my JCM 800 and I have to say, the EL34 gets pretty close to the JCM 800 tone on the green channel with overdrive on and drive set about 2. With a TS9 Tube Screamer in front of it with level dimed, tone at 12 o'clock and drive at 0. Eq Settings were Low at 8, mid 4, trebbile 8, resonance 2, Prescence 6. Kick in that TS9 and closed my eyes, and A-B back and fourth to my 2203 JCM 800 and sounds incredibly close On red channel, same eq settings and red channel drive at 2 with a Boss SD1 overdrive in front, drive at 0, tone at 12 o'clock and level dimed it has a killer tone for the heavvier stuff. I don't like the burn button, it is just way to much. I also running a CE5 Stero chorus, HOF Reverb, FlahBack2 delay and a EH 720 Looper in the effects loop and do not use the amp reverb. In front I am running Les Paul Custom Shop into a TU2 tunner, into Boss 200EQ to better shape the tone, into Morley Mark Tremonti Wah, then to TS9, SD1 and OC5 Octave. Last in Chain is NS2 Noise gate. The EQ pedal allows you to refine the tone really well. After 5 days of having both, I settled on the EL34 and returned the 6L6. The El34 is just a little more reminiscent of the classic Marshall tone. A bit warmer, and not as harsh as the 6L6. If I was a hardcore metal player, then the 6L6 would have been my choice. For me, the EL34 is a winner. And I forgot to mention the clean channel. Same EQ settings, but I do have a dedicated eq channel on the boss EQ 200 just for clean that gives probably the best clean tone I have ever heard from any amp. I have a fender twin reverb, and a 1977 Roland Jazz Chorus 120 I usually A-B with my JCM 800 for cleans, and the tone I got out of the EL34 with the eq pedal, is surprisingly better. No need for me to lug multiple amps to the gig now. Being a diehard vintage amp snob, I was very reluctant to give this a try. But wow!! I am glad I did. The vintage stuff can stay at home now where it is safe, and this will now be my gigging amp. Less to haul around to achieve great tones all in one head versuses A-B ing 2 amps, two mics in front and two channels to dial in on front of house board. This is a win for me. Never thought I would say this, and immediatley hated it until I gave it a try. I guess you can teach an old dog new tricks. PS: I spent about 6 hours total, tone shapping with EQ 200 to each specific channel to achieve the tones I finally dig. TS9 on Green Channel with Overdrvive engaged, and SD1 for Red Channel no burn button. The burn will never be used. And one final tweak, I removed the front grill and took off the 5150 and EVH logo and put behind the grill. Looks a lot better estetically. Now it's a custom lol
I just bought my first tube amp and I made sure it had an fx loop cuz I thought you had to do like the 4 cable method to get the gate to be super tight … your amp sounds sick.. is that 4 cable thing not true .. are you just running the zuel out front cuz if so that’s awesome
Great video and epic playing as always. I think it would have been nice if you showed the actual process of dialling in these settings so people can hear the difference it is making and get a better understanding of why you're making the choices you're making. No one will have the same set up so they can't simply copy your settings.
These days I think the biggest issue with the Iconic launch was the matching cabs. Those speakers are very harsh and still sound fairly good in a room, probably not very good for recording. I have cabs that sound good in a room, bad in the studio or the other way around. I tried an Iconic 412 with a 5150iii and actually didn't like how it sounded but yet it sounded decent with an iconic. I use to hate it irrationally based on the demo's until I actually got to try one in this random fender 412 in a used section. It was so sick that I just got my own this week and it's the best 5150 I've ever played.
I tried this amp a couple months ago and thought there was smth wrong with it... no low end, kinda fizzy... it didn't sound bad but it didn't sound good either... didn't sound like a tube amp at all. Then I tried the EVH 5150III 50w on the same day and HOLY SHIT what a difference... saved a couple hundred bucks more and bought the 5150 50W EL 34 the month after.
"It looks exactly like the real plugin" haha, brilliant. I briefly had a Bugera 333xl (mesa triple rec clone I think?) which was fantastic but otherwise I've been stuck using free plugins and crappy solid states for the last 17 years, so I definitely relate to this episode hard. I feel somewhat validated. lol, now I just have to learn how to actually play...
Hey Keyan, sick vid! What's the name of the riff at 9:56? I have definitely heard it somewhere but i don't know the name of the songg.. it fucks with my brain so much and i'd appreciate any help!
It’s all practice bro…. And going through the trial and error frustration of doing it and ultimately never being happy with the tone lol But anyway…. It’s mostly in the cab. Get that right and you’re golden
So plz Keyan tell us, after playing a little with a real amp what was your first impression ? Did it was like "wow its really better to feel it real!" Or just well its another sound , not worst not better, just a different sound?
The Iconic head is pretty good. Especially with those pedals you have. Perfect combination. The problem is: the matching cab. The cab sucks. Try that head with other cabs, and it will sound a lot better.
@@rocksteady6448 The cab was built to a price-point. So it uses thin MDF, and crappy speakers. It sounds harsh and buzzy on the top-end. Lifeless and flubby on the bottom-end. It ruins the sound of the head, which actually sounds pretty good through a MESA or ENGL 4x12 cab. Any cab with a darker tone, will sound good with the Iconic.
I was newer owned real amp and was playing only into my practice combo and then modelers. I heard awesome tones from real deal and digital. Also, I heard terrible tones from real deal and modelers as well. There was the moment in my life like 3 years ago when I heard how real amp sounds when it's mic'ed into my headphones. And I was like, "hm, my POD HD sounds the same". Now I can send my Helix into Real Laney Ironheart and into the PA in the rehearsal room. Moral of the story is simple: use what you have and try to work with this with no expectation of some "real awesome tube analog" thing. It will not make you better.
Tube amps that can be plugged into your audio interface.......so good. You can hear that extra "push" in the mix that the tubes bring. Please try out a Kraken v4 and do a similar video using Torpedo Remote. I have one and it is an absolute beast of a amp head
I was shopping for a Rectifier earlier this year, and I went with the Badlander over the Dual Rectifier mostly because the Badlander can be plugged straight into my audio interface, and allows for custom IRs to be loaded onto it, so it saves so much grief. I’m very happy with my purchase.
Maybe do this with one of the joyo bantamps. Mostly asking to see if the mxr 10 band an save the amp. I'm only asking because I have the zombie and it's pretty much just a power amp. But just got a headrush frfr and now I just use that for my hd500x or mooer preamp pedal (evh 5153). Not sure if I prefer the screamer on the pod or my precision drive but either way, the joyo is not the greatest for low tunings. Sounds like the joyo good for dad/grandpa metal.
I always encourage people to go for the plugins now days for recording because it is so easy, cheap and sounds pretty much like the real thing. Real amps for sure have their place like for gigs and live playing but the hassle of setting everything up especially if you wanna mic your cab can really disrupt the recording session I find.

You have evertune bridge.And i didn't see you bending?Is it possible with this bridge?
@@heavyvibrationstudiopl3256 it's possible, i believe there's different settings so you can adjust it to bend or not, see 5:18 'Black'

Dude you are honestly like the sickest riff based guitar player to emerge in the last like 3 years! I wish I could have a 10th of your skill
That’s so sweet of you to say dude, thank you so much!
Couldnt agree more!💯💯💯
His ep sooo bad
Genius move on EVH sending you this amp. You def brought some good attention to it. Great work!
The tone is amazing (as always) but I just wanted to say that you're such an inspiration for me, it's crazy.

Same here lol
holy mother of gate the after tone reminds me of those old videos where misha's entire existence was being gated LOL
BUTTERSNIPS
Interesting to see the viewpoint of the new generation of guitarist, having almost exclusively played through plugins vs tube amps. Great video!
DUDEEEE! It's so cool that you used the "Stay" riff you made in the short video.
That riff is actually so good a full song would be a blessing but that's too much to ask
Thanks man! I like this riff, I’m sure it will end up somewhere proper one day
@@KeyanHoushmandLive I really hope so, cause it's actually sick!
Stoked to see more videos showing what the iconic can do, instead of all the negative reviews of it when it first dropped.
You got a solid tone out of it. Sounds sick dude!
Thanks for watching man!

you made it sound killer, great work as always man. Intro was 😂
Dude the songwriting for the demo was perfect for what the video is about, it sounded like early 2000's core with a modern twist
The kse riff at the end!! 👌🏻🤘🏻🔥 sick tones man!
TBH the mic'd sound you got sounded fantastic
Thank you! Just slight EQ and soothe2 on the guitar bus in post
They did a smart thing sending you this, you did a great job👍
Hearing that FL click tripped me out, thought I still had a session open lol
Dude, watching you play all these riffs makes me wanna pick up my guitar every time. Something about the way you play stands out to me
Yooo the mix demo of the STAY vid from Instagram! One of my favorite riffs of all time no lie!
I love my Peavey 5150 (the first made one) it's a MONSTER the bass is so tight it feels like you're getting punched. Here's the thing, I've played 3 5150s... and they all sound different which is cool and scary at the same time
This is a double edged sword, I love the consistency of digital but I also love how every amp sounds different
man’s so sweet replying to early commenters, also when this amp dropped i kinda pictured it being all the amp sim guys’ first amp so it’s cool to see that being true
Aye man, you were so right!
@@KeyanHoushmandLive you’re a beacon of positivity in the community bro thank you

Seems like it doesn't matter what you use. You always sound awesome. Sick playing and sick tone
Man your highs are so bright, I wish I could get them. Loved this video.
Thanks for watching!
nice tone! which amp sim plugin did u use?
Everytime I watch ur videos is another day I’m closer to pulling the trigger on the Misha evertune sig
what riff was that at 6:58? sounded sick
I never thought about running an eq in the effects loop, that’s smart as fuck
That riff was tight!! Great review man!
This is sick. You are sick. Playing is so tight! 🤌🏼

i think it's an erra song , but i cant remember the song
Dig the reject yourself at the end 🤘
Bonus points for that Alpha Wolf Cover ;)
Love this video, I'm looking to get one. I was Just wondering exactly what you covered in this video so thank you for doing it.
Love your riffs, seems like you'd love I Built The Sky
that souded really good. maybe i should check to see if anyone else makes irl versions of pluggins
That sounds like a very wise idea
keyan u should a live stream where you give feedback on our metal tracks
This is a great idea, I’ll take this into consideration. Thank you

What song are you playing at 9:38? after Make Total Destroy
It’s my song! Grey - KEYAN
Pretty neat Monuswag tone
how does the fx loop of the 5150 iconic work, like it is always on or is there a switch?
That tone is iconic
Pushed that like button before watching the vid because I know it will be good
Nice dude. Do you have a noise gate in the fx loop as well? How is there no buzz from the amp itself?
The intro had me rolling 🤣
Still don’t know what it is

HOLY FCK KEYANNNN 3:18 SECTION IS 🔥🔥🔥🔥
you rule , dude
i don't recognise the riff at 6:56 but fuck me is it sick, killer content as usual king
"It looks exactly like the real plugin" haha, brilliant.

I really wish I could get my head how to how to get gear to sound this good.
It’s all practice bro…. And going through the trial and error frustration of doing it and ultimately never being happy with the tone lol
But anyway…. It’s mostly in the cab. Get that right and you’re golden
@@beastlybeast2716 cheers bro. I do enjoy the trial and error. I think it's just always a case of never being happy hahah

So plz Keyan tell us, after playing a little with a real amp what was your first impression ? Did it was like "wow its really better to feel it real!" Or just well its another sound , not worst not better, just a different sound?

Riff I made for this video
@@KeyanHoushmandLive woah
@@KeyanHoushmandLive Lmao i was searching through some albums for a half hour cuz it was awesome and thought I recognized it.

There was the moment in my life like 3 years ago when I heard how real amp sounds when it's mic'ed into my headphones. And I was like, "hm, my POD HD sounds the same".

Moral of the story is simple: use what you have and try to work with this with no expectation of some "real awesome tube analog" thing. It will not make you better.
It sounds awesome cuz he plays awesome. Play through it yourself before you order one. Trust me...
dem riffs 🙂 you're surprising no one haha
Bout time u go a real amp!!!!
Oh hey it’s that kid Laroi song lesss goooo😂
sick af riffs bruh
Tube amps that can be plugged into your audio interface.......so good. You can hear that extra "push" in the mix that the tubes bring.

Can't wait for the day when Keyan wears a different shirt 😂
Maybe do this with one of the joyo bantamps. Mostly asking to see if the mxr 10 band an save the amp.
I'm only asking because I have the zombie and it's pretty much just a power amp. But just got a headrush frfr and now I just use that for my hd500x or mooer preamp pedal (evh 5153). Not sure if I prefer the screamer on the pod or my precision drive but either way, the joyo is not the greatest for low tunings. Sounds like the joyo good for dad/grandpa metal.
someone please list all the riffs!!!!!!
Could never sound like the real 5150 plugin 😤
They should have sent you a 5150iii
I always encourage people to go for the plugins now days for recording because it is so easy, cheap and sounds pretty much like the real thing. Real amps for sure have their place like for gigs and live playing but the hassle of setting everything up especially if you wanna mic your cab can really disrupt the recording session I find.
