    bro this riff is tasty AFFFFFFF. damn this auto played after a GGD video from some random dude, and it wasn't a bad demo.of this new cab pack....but shit bro it damn sure wasn't this level of tasty by no means 😅 wish I'd seen this vid in my feed prior to the previous one, stuff like this is what I was fishing around for. good shit my dude. (gonna watch this a few times to learn this myself man 😅, really is sick bro)

    I like the Zills cab, sounds more punchy to me. Less scooped and airy than the Cali.
