- Trying out the Children of Bodom Alexi Laiho rig, His Ripped LTD guitar, the Marshall JVM and ALSO the integrated preamp booster.
After listening back to the results, I wasn't that happy with it. The sound in the room was way better. Just something to remember. Not everything sounds as good mic'd up. Blaim it on my production skills.

Can't believe it's been 2 years since his passing.. rest easy Alexi
Nearly 18 years for Dime
@@TheGazza83 next week 21 years for Chuck Schuldiner
edit: misspelled his last name..
I swear 2020-2022 passed by like 1 year. EVH also passed in 2020 :(
@@FlunaOwO i always remember his birthday and his death date, and i cannot believe that we still have a Chuck Schuldiner superfan 🖤🤘🏽
@@amiraliheydari4887 Chuck and Alexi are 2 of my biggest influences when it comes to screaming and guitar
Been sleeping on this one, it was time! hope you enjoy the video! Also Happy Birthday Finland!
Would love to see a cover of “hold your tongue” great song
I dig the video. I’m really impressed with that Marshall
Hey ola would we be able to get a video showing the process of installing the preamp.
Thanks
Thanks Ola! Sounds really cool!
Ola: "That's too much gain." There's a first time for everything.
Nothing better than a Ola video on Finnish independence day about a Finnish guitar legend! Timing on on point!
Hyää syntymäpäivää! and Rest in Power Aleksi
Happy independence in afterwards :D From a Swede. We love our finnish neighbours. Even tho we rip at eachother sometimes.
Alexi was such a beast. That early 2000s Era had so many killer players, but Alexi was a standout talent.
RIP Alexi, your playing lives on.
1998-2004 Alexi was on another level! He still was until his sadly passing but those 1st 4 albums were epic.
JVMs just sound so visceral, man... Definitely the best high-gain Marshall ever.
Been using a JVM410 since they pretty much come out, it does everything I could want it to and more.
@@69mosshead Same.
Hard agree! The JVM410 is glorious and acts like a Swiss Army knife of tone to boot.
One of best high gain amps, ever. Had mine since 2012 & no need for another head.
Don't sleep on the 205H, either! I want to buried with mine. Surprisingly great clean channel, too.
Great timing for this video Ola, one of the Finnish guitar heroes for Finland's independence day 😄
Wildchild will live forever in our hearts!! He fucking rocked and was a super nice guy too. I got my boys (10 and 12) listening to Bodom now and they are loving it.
Good man 🤘
Father Of The Year Award goes to this man🏆
I actually have one of Alexi's JVM's. When he ordered those, he ordered one extra for his bedroom amp which is was in reality for me. I was young mofo back then and Allu supported me heavily. I also have one Roope's ESP prototype random star and one of his old jackson RR custom.
Priceless guitartifacts
God bless his soul my guitar hero ,, Rest in power Alexi ‘wildchild’ Laiho
Holy shit you nailed that intro solo to Needled! Good job Ola! 👏
Yeah I had my app closed and thought that was the actual track!!! Killed it.
Yeah man! Pretty cool! I thought it's the actual track!
i missed it, i was studying while watching the vid and didnt notice where he played needled solo?
man it has the tone of alexi on his fingers, its crazy
@@chhanly1 no the intro! There's a very short solo in the intro as well, that's what was pointed out!
The band that got me into metal 13-14 years ago, so glad I got to see them live before Alexi passed. R.I.P.
That Needled 24/7 cover at the beginning was literally perfect
This gear video is pure gold for many of us that chased his tone! A huge influence to an entire generation of metal musicians is an understatement. Forever in our hearts, the original Wild Child!
Probably my largest guitar influence of the modern generation. Jimi made me pick up a guitar when I was 8, Alexi pushed me to get great.
For me, kirk hammett made me pick it up.. Alexi kept me playing
Love how ola went from never hearing the a few years ago to loving them and honoring alexi laiho. He's the living dead beat. He'll never die
Sounds like a bandwagonner
So happy to see Ola doing a video on one of my favorite bands and guitarists. The playing was on point
Great Video, Ola, and thanks for keeping the Legacy alive! Nice to hear you appreciating the Bodom Tracks. To me Alexi and COB is probably what Dime and Pantera means to you. Well prepared and performed!
One of the coolest videos from Ola... badass sound, legendary musician, excellent amp, and kickass riffs in one video.
Sick sound. Alexi was a minimalist with his gear. He let his skills speak for itself.
Alexi was an absolute monster, so many catchy riffs and melodic solos. Sick gear review!
Hello, at 5:45 was that freestyle or some riff of a song? Thanks!
@@DistarBute Sixpounder by COB
absolutely love when Ola makes CoB/Alexi Laiho videos! Has been my favorite band since middle school and a big part of my life growing up.Thank you sir! Btw if ever in Finland they just opened a Children Of Bodom bar in Esbo/Espoo
Absolute chills! Thank you so much for this video Ola I’ll always remember getting my mind blown by this exact tone shaking the whole theatre I was in when Alexi’s sound tech walked his guitar out on stage just prior to their set starting to test chug open C for 10 secs. I never thought I’d quite hear it the same again.
Great tone, hellacious guitar.. Alexi would be stoked! It’s a shame we lost him so soon, would have been so cool to see him on your show man. I also didn’t listen to bodom much growing up, but have recently developed a huge amount of respect and appreciation for his music in recent years. Got to see them live back in 2008 on gigantour at merryweather post pavilion with JFAC, in flames, and megadeth.. extremely grateful for that experience
Awesome video Ola! Finally the long waited episode of Guitar Gear, loving it! 🤘🤘
I always loved that tone. Great job Ola!
The Man and the band that pulled me into metal music.Always will be my hero/heroes, always blasting CoB everyday when im going to work🤘🏻Thank you Ola for this amazing content!
One of my favorite guitarist.. his playing, songwriting, stage presence and authenticity was so inspirational!
Great video, and awesome to hear Ola is checking out and enjoying more CoB tracks!!🤟🔥
Finally! been waiting for this! Thnx Ola! Great video!
Alexi was my intro into metal music
Glad to hear you've got more into the CoB. There is always something you can bring with you from Alexi's playing. Rock on 😎🤘
You really nailed it on this video. Thank you Ola! I'm getting goosebumps when hearing that exact tone. Alexi was the guy who made me want to pick up the guitar.
Glad you came around to Children of Bodom. Amazing band. It'd be great to see you learning Alexi's solo's from the first two album.
Absolutely love the cinematography on this video
This is my favourite amp of all times..i love it and u made me really happy to hear it again
Thank you for making this was waiting for this vid since you got the signature guitar
That high gain, spongey Marshall tone is just the best 🔥
thank you so much for this video Ola. Alexi was my personal hero along with chuck schuldiner. Ever since his passing its never been the same, just like with chuck and dimebag. RIP alexi and all the legends that left us
RIP Alexi. I wish I got to see him live before he passed. He was always one of my favorites since middle school but I was never big on going to concerts until after the pandemic ended.
Killer playing, Ola!!! You nailed Alexi's tone and style! Thanks for doing this video! :-)
Awesome video, dude! Children Of Bodom are my favorite band, fullstop, and Alexi was and still is one of my biggest guitar heroes.
Holy shit Ola, the tones and playing are on point here for real !
You really nailed Alexi's tone!
Damn that is sooooo chunky.
Your play style and the tone in the intro made me remember of the final solo of Hatebreeder.
I'm still get goose bumps when I listen to it.
That's a great tribute to a great guitarist gone too soon!
Well done Ola.
Alexi's sound is so fantastic and it is bone simple.
@@BassRacerxBy hitting the first gain stage with a 18 dB boost just blows the rest of the signal chain.
The simpler, the better!
ty! RIP Alexi!! great vid as always Ola!
Awesome Ola 👏🏼 🎉
I remember a few years ago during your live chats heavily recommending COB and you kept saying how they were too “happy” of a sound for you, glad you came around!!! Alexi was a legend of a shredder…
How cool is that, awesome, and unbelievable, cause just from yesterday I was thinking a lot about Alexi, and reminded myself some stuff about him, and here is Ola's new video, incredible how this energy flies through the space
Cool stuff as always, RIP Allu 🖤 Great choice of day for posting this, so happy Independece Day to Finland 🥳🥂🇫🇮
Aw man, _yeess_ I waited for that one! Alexi is one of those people that I discovered _way_ too late, but who ever since had an enormous influence on my guitar journey and everything surrounding it; Petrucci made me pick up the electric, but Alexi made me really _play_ ...
Rest in fucking power Wildchild, may your legacy live on for a long, long time!
Thank you Olda for doing this! RIP, Alexi the wild child
RIP ALEXI, awesome shredding Ola, you've really improved the last few years
i have been waiting for you to upload this for years haha
ola makes my day happy 😊
I’m a 54 year thrash semi crappy guitarist who like yourself didn’t listen to them early on, but I’m really glad that I did hear them before I moved on because. The guy was good and had a good time doing what he loved. I happy I can hear it all now. Allways learning new riff etc and boy, was he full of them ! thrash on all. It’s worth the listen. Love ur stuff as well mr.ola. Keep it up. Thanks for all ur work my brother. Peace
hell yeah. I was waiting for you to upload this
777K subs Gratz Ola!
Great demo Ola, that sounded awesome man 😀🤘🎵🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Dud, the intro is just sooo in your face!!! Amazing playing Ola!!!
Great to see you liking COB more. You nailed that tone and playing. By the way, one of the rig run down videos I watched, very simple rig and Alexi told that he had chorus pedal always on interestingly.
The description says you weren't happy with it, but I think you NAILED the tone. Great stuff.
He did nail it. I would have been curious to hear a side by side of perhaps a stock LTD Arrow or something. He really nailed the COb tone, I wonder how much was in that booster he had installed?
Cool show.
Always have a beer for Alexi when you are out... Shred in heaven forever brother! so glad to see them live in Oslo
Awesome sick guitar and upload Ola🔥👍🏻 what I really like about Alexi is that his composition talent, ideas, unique style, metallic melodies. He’ll be one of my fav top composer on metal guitar. RIP “wildchild” ❤🤘🏻
Good call on getting the Alexi MM-04 booster installed, the midboost is essential for the Alexi sound. Don't be afraid to try different settings with the dipswitches. If I recall correctly, one of his techs mentioned online that he changed the settings around over the years to match different pickups and the 2+4 settings listed in the manual are old.
Absolutely killed that intro solo!
This video means so much to me man! i really would love to se you play something from the first 3 albums. Rest easy Wildchild
Holy shit that tone and playing, also your bass tones are always really sick I gotta say
That guitar gear sounds awesome Ola Children of Bosom Rock 🤘 RIP Alexi Laiho
Thank you, Ola. For honoring a legend. Rest in peace, Wildchild
Someone has been practicing their Bodom! Absolutely killer stuff.
RIP Alexi.
you definitely nailed it! obviously you said it is set to his settings but i swear there are a ton of videos with him shredding and nailing those riffs with less gain. obviously he was a master!
I LOVE THIS! Great video!
As much as I love and admire Alexi, it was refreshing to hear one of their songs played as tightly as you did in the intro.
I'll never forget the day we lost him, as it fell on my birthday. Wish he was still with us. RIP, Wildchild🤘
I remember the video of you listening to them essentially for the first time in glad you came around because Alexi is one of the best imo
All the orchestra hits 😆
Hellyeah Ola, that sounds kickasss
A fine gift for Finland's birthday, thank you Ola!
RIP Alexi! Legend!!
Woooowww this was awesome can't tell you how much impact Alexi had on an old metalhead like me and how much he influenced my son Will
That playing is so badass. RIP Alexi.
His black and pink LTD is something I am still chasing all these years. I saw him with one in a Zzounds magazine I used to get back in 2007 and that's what lead me to look up Alexi. CoB immediately became a favorite of mine.
after his death the original ones are nearly impossible to find and to afford. Also the first black yellow one after he changed from jackson
I super love this amps gain structure!!!
long live Alexi. great stuff Ola
Awesome video, Ola! It would be sick to see you do one on his preamp setup that he used most of his career too (Lee Jackson GP1000), or even the early guitar setup (Jackson with J50BC pickup and JE1000 gainboost) and maybe see how they compare with this.
Love your content man, happy finnish independence day to you.
Hell yea! You opened with Hatecrew Deathroll. That’s one of my warm-up songs, and I also didn’t listen to them back in the day. I just remember when it came out back in the day, I watched Alexi’s Guitar World lessons on it. He was an incredible guitarist!
Yesssssssss! Such a beautiful guitar, definitely did well
🤜🏼🤛🏼
A lot of his gear, including that white guitar from the thumbnail as well as his amps and pedals were on display in my hometown a month or two ago. Was really cool to see!
Nailed Needled 24/7! My favorite Bodom tune. Sounds great!
Totally ripping it up Ola, you absolute God 🤘
I sold my JVM for A Bogner Ecstasy. It was a good choice. But if I was to rebuy a head, it would be a JVM. Channel 3 orange and red were the most amazing saturated goodness, especially with my Les Paul. Underrated metal amp that can do every style. But the Bogner takes the gain staging options and the cutting clarity to a new level.
Great vid, Ola. I'm watching you all the time again, and totally diggin' your channel. The OG!
And "Needled" is definitely my fav Bodom tune! Memories...of the good ol days...
His setups and guitars are really really bloody cool 🤘🏿😎🤘🏿!!! The scalloped frets and pick up placement is cool and it looks RAD! Great Video Ola !!!Your Demos cool and loaded with great info.Getcha Pull 🥃🥃 Cheers 🍻🤘🏿😎
COB is a great band. The guitar work was always awesome. Glad you reviewed the guitar. Love the look
I was aware of COB and Alexi as a teen, I really liked his work in the Finnish super group The Local Band and listened to the album “Hexed”… but that was basically it. Until he passed it caught me by surprise like I’m sure everyone else did… dove into their earlier works, it was right up my alley, especially if I was younger lol… it’s a damn shame I didn’t get into them earlier… R.I.P. Alexi
Alexi just wrote the perfect compositions. His performance was from another planet too. Absolute LEGEND
Absolutely epic to post this on Finlands independence day Ola!
Man, it warms my heart to see you getting into COB. Alexi was my favorite guitarist of all time. 🤘
Hi, at 5:45 was that freestyle or some riff of a song? Thanks!
@@DistarBute "Sixpounder" by Bodom.
Saw COB in 2015 with Megadeth, nothing will ever top that show. RIP Alexi 🖤
Discovered CoB from my driving instructor back in the day 😂 been casually listening to them ever since! Alexi was a master! 🤘🏽🔥
Ola you are the best!
Thanks for this video. Alexi was, and is, a national treasure for metal music.
Great to see this done and demonstrated.
Had one of those preamps installed in a guitar, you can find a good setting, if u mess around with it.
Think there's couple videos showing how they affect. It's always a taste thing, anyways.
Alexi Laiho was definitely my Favorite guitarist! I really hope his latest ESP/LTD guitar’s never get discontinued! I’m still sad that he is gone!
