Not a stranger to Ibanez guitars, Scott LePage has played them his whole career. He’s used models from the RG, Prestige, AZ, Talman, and Iron Label families, but at the 2019 NAMM Show he (and bandmate Tim Henson) announced a signature model that incorporates elements from all of them. The body is based on a AZ (American basswood with quilted maple top). It includes Ibanez’s heat-treated roasted maple neck and fretboard with only 22 frets because Scott feels the extra frets are useless and giving a little space between the neck single-coil and fretboard produces the “sweet spot.” Another signature part of the instrument is Scott’s collaboration with DiMarzio, which produces his own alnico humbucker-the IGNO. The middle and neck pickups are DiMarzio True Velvets and are a nod to the Talman setup he previously played and provide a springier sound for the band’s funk-meets-hip-hop-influenced tones. Lastly, gold Ibanez hardware, a Gotoh T1502 trem bridge, and GraphTech nut round out the SLM10. This one typically is tuned to standard and uses Dunlop Nickel Coated Plated .010-.052 strings.

Interviewer: "So tell me about the intricacies of your hallmark signature model"
Scott: "It's got fuckin sick stuff"
Me: *Throws bag of money at Ibanez*
Haha my thoughts also
Jamie Minnamon iiiiooooooo
yesssss
Lolol. Yup!
Funny interview. Nice shirt as well. xD
(Fret inlays)
Scott: "neck logo"
That was actually kinda cringy haha, Scott still rocks haha
@@shadownumber1 im pretty sure everything the guys in polyphia say is a joke and once you realize that its not cringe anymore
@@renten3718 woah dude, calm down.
“You have springs in there, in case you wanna, you know, look at the springs.”
@@MtMars iam a fan of there music and man can they play, but I think its not a joke he just does not know much about gear, which is totally ok so he can focus on playing.
"And Tim is like 'weyoweyoweyo' all the way up here"
Nice.
8:49 for anyone wondering 😂
He looks sad without tim, pls don't separate them
he looks stoned rather
They're like the twins in the Simpsons, when separated they slowly wither away.
please make them play Metallica
“Please keep your support Tim with you at all times”
Weird
When you get stoned before the interview hoping it goes well.
uh excuse me every thing polyphia does is a PErSoNA!!!!!!!!!!' theyre not actually retArded theyre PRETEnding for tha CAMERA
@@ANDERALTMAN if you actually followed polyphia on social media you would know they get either piss drunk or stoned before literally anything public
@@musicased9591 yea its just funny how if they act like dicks their fans always pop up defending them with "its not really them being rude"
@@ANDERALTMAN How was he being rude? You're just sensitive...
Dude
@@ANDERALTMAN Mom insults the first refuge of the utterly stupid.
Theres a reason super talented people are so awkward. When everybody else was learning to socialize, they were in their bedroom practicing.
Not exactly. Frank Sinatra was super talented and was practically a womanizer
Ninjabread Frank Sinatra didnt spend 10,000 hours practicing shredding in his bedroom when he was a young man.
@@mcren6781 I understand, but you make the assumption that Scott is an awkward person and he really isn't. He's just incredibly laidback.
We're not like you. We don't want to be like you. That is a good thing.
...Dimebag?
Rig Rundown: Scott LePage
*introduces video with tim henson riff*
I'm pretty sure Tim writes all of their music. 🤔
Polyphery does he?
@@MullilluM Not all but the 65% yes
Scott is underrated
He played his part of the riff so it still counts
I love how Scott just picks whatever looks cool or sounds cool without knowing the what and how it actually works. He’s so grounded
5:28
Interviewer: "You're master of hammer-ons"
Scott: "Yeah, I hammer"
You gotta do a rundown on his pants.
There's something running down my pants watching Scott play guitar.
@Jeremiah Fernandez laughing my ass off XD
No one wants anything running down their pants...
17:08 - Clay coming out like he's been sleeping behind Scott's amp to drop some key knowledge 😂
Polyphia's interview's make for great comedy
This guy is a real intellectual.
His T-shirt says it all. I'm just a *unt.
Oh now i understand the sarcasm.....
@@dsuperhawk Get trolled :D
sick intellectual
He’s on the cutting edge kinda so there’s definitely something there
This dude is blessed. He was born with an iron sight on his face, no wonder he's so precise and clean on the guitar!
as a fellow huge-nosed man. I laughed my ass off at this lmao
@@TetraShot shekel nose
Iron sight 😆 lol
Coming to the party super late but that was genius, I’m crying ahahah
I love awkward people. There’s something genuine about it. I love how the guys in polyphia go against the grain and do things their way. Real sense of freedom in it. Exactly how’d I’d do it.
@l o l in the best possible way
I'm gonna venture a guess and say the real reason he's awkward is cause he knows the guy's gonna be asking him questions he doesn't care about, and then he has to kinda fake enthusiasm for all this stuff for the video. You can't be awkward by yourself, it's kinda like tango, it takes two. Awkwardness is a concerted effort. He's not awkward when he's with the band.
I bet Scott doesn't give a shit about most of this stuff and just likes playing. I mean obvious, cause he called the fret markers "neck logos". :P
@l o l Just watch the way he interacts with the interviewer.
honestly, Scott more so has a laid back, less than 0 fucks given vibe
especially in this interview lol. he's normally not like this tbh
He nose all about the good tones. Its like he sniffs them out.
Damn
Awesome bro. Let me buy u a beer.
I hate you. Have a like
LMAO XD
This comment wins the internet.
Gotta appreciate Scott giving a shoutout to the Clays they are so good at their instruments & the drumming is definitely high level, dude is doing these interesting snare fills & trap hi-hats, really not explored in this genre.
19:34 do you play guitar over rap music for inspiration?
Scott in his head: shit that would have been so much easier
XD
i think that's how tim comes up with a lot of riffs, i saw a video about how he based goat off champions by kanye
14:04 "The fuckin, that whole riff. Like you're not gonna fuckin WEEEWEWOOo on that shit."
Man, I love this interviewer. He has no notes and shit, all could be on-spot or memorized, but nonetheless Premier Guitar got lucky with him.
He said "New Devils New Levels" lmao.
It’s like I’m just as uninterested as both of them and I’m still watching...
11:57 "it's so sexy and smooth., idk..." The way he goes up on his toes and smiles was too adorable.
7:57 Paul Gilbert would like to have a word with his fellow ibanez endorsee friend
ayeapprove That’s exactly what I was thinking
Yeahh Haha ever heard of the Ibanez Fireman Scott?
Makes you wonder how these dudes get their signature models. His tech could get any used guitar off ebay, paint it red and put some good pickups on them and he probably couldn't tell the difference. Or is he just a big sarcastic f*ck throughout this whole interview?
merkantelismo listen to them shred and you’ll see why they got sigs lmfao
When he started stepping on the pedalboard I laughed so hard dude
Chris deserves a medal for this. That's all I'll say.
why
Nostal Jack lack of nerdy gear enthusiasm from Scottie that people watch these for
@@nostalgiajunkie yeah this comment section is littered with metal elitists
amnesia yea polyphias old djent fan base loves to trash their videos with “I miss inspire” type shit along w the classic rock n blues boomers. Definitely gets annoying
Joshua Blou t ya I listen to these guys to get away from blues boomers
Clay needs a signature bass!
Yea why doesn’t he have one?
i would buy that the second it came out
12:06 - blames Tim for not playing the riff properly lmfao 😂 (the best argument he could found in a matter of milliseconds). Love these guys
If could have just said "fuckin" maybe 12 more times - perfect interview.
"I had to label that one mine so people knew it was mine"
-Scott
“he’s got a tuner i bet he fucks with that every now and then” i’m fuckin dead
“You can press a button and it goes to the thing ya know?” Lol
17:16 a wild clay appears
When I hear him talk, all I can think is....
It’s Satchel son.
his dad can rip a mean guitar..
higler facts!!!
You had me for a second
I think he sounds exactly like the eldest daughter from Bob's Burgers.
What has been read cannot be unseen....Fml! 😂🤣😭
"He's got his tuner, I know he fucks around with that sometimes."
Y'all leave Scott alone, he's awkward 😂 love these dudes
I love how real he is. Who actually says "its hard"? I love it
So much respect for the great talent out these days! Guitar is in good hands.
"Why don't you explain the tone for a song like champagne"
Scott: "I'll just play this other song and not explain anything instead"
This was my favourite episode of Rig Rundown.
That t-shirt though.
I want that T-shirt, where can I find one?
EVERY t-shirt he wears its sick man!!
Lol all the older nerdy tech guys getting upset for this kid not getting technical enough
emilio olivas yes!!!
yeah its pretty funny. Some people don't care about that stuff and just wanna play, and thats totally okay. He can probably out-play almost all the people worrying about his terminology and parts knowledge lol. I'm a shitty player, but I'm a total tech/gear/tone nerd, so i can easily see the other side of the spectrum.
emilio olivas I’m 1 year old and it was god awful to watch
Facts. He's just chill, but an insane guitar player.
I haven't been born yet and couldn't stand it
It’s always better when the artist cares enough to be the interviewee rather that getting their tech to do it.
11:24
15:23
16:29
Which summarizes the entire interview, right?
@@JorgeR2912 pretty much!
16:57
HAHAHAHAHA
LOL thanks
When he’s talking about axe fx at the end, you can see his personality come out, catch himself, and be less descriptive haha
@18:04 Scott's take on Clay's Rig... I'm dying
22 fret's really does have a better neck pickup sound -- I didn't want to believe it for along time but I eventually did realize that it's true
same! my next guitar is definitely gonna have 22 fret's
@@brucesavoie4397 All of mine do.
Is that because it's over a significant harmonic?
Exactly. If you move the pickup a bit below the spectrum of harmonics will be slightly different
We getting tim next?
I sure hope not.
@@maxupp why not?
lol
100% a prick 🤣
You are all so lost lmfao
This was an exercise in having fun and being awesome, thanks ya'll!
This is one of my favorite interviews😂😂
I dunno if I've seen a more relatable interview. Scott is all of us in this situation. 😂
Such a goofy dude. He's got chops though
The awkward handshake at the end... fantastic!
The “MINE” sticker on the pedal board ❤
why are 40yr old bedroom guitarists so attracted to talking shit on polyphia lol
Scott Looks Like Zlatan Ibrahimović! 😝
Don't you cuss at me.
Meh kinda
Don't compare humans to lions
nahh, young bradley cooper lol
I always think this because of the nose 😂😂
When he started stomping the pedal board I almost pissed myself from laughing.
"let me do saucy" interviewer:"MY KNEES ARE WEEK."
To al you peeps who interview guys like this: Thank you for asking questions! Often the artist does not know what to share about the gear they are using. Thanks PG!
Gilbert has 3 mini humbuckers in his signature >_>
what do you expect from a guy wearing fucking curtains for pants
That's not exactly common knowledge, tho, tbh.
Ibrahimovic is such a great guitar player.
Understood that
Would be cool to see them serious even only one time lol. They are funny af but we'll never know how they really are.
Check out their oldest interviews and they are very serious
Every once in a while you get a glimpse of it on their instagrams, I imagine they’re really nice guys, Tim responded to someone once on his IG talking about how he was a bitch as a kid and now he’s trying to make up for it or something along those lines
Paul Gilbert's signature has a mini humbucker
Richie Kotzen as well
@Eli Lemke Well that's petty. Fifteen years if they keep up the good work.
@Eli Lemke 15 minutes lol. Not my favourite band, but you were SOOO wrong.
Beautiful playing & tones
this is the best video on youtube
There's something we all say about Scott that you just can't deny: when it comes to gear, the nose knows.
It‘s like playing a sitar or some shit. And I can‘t play sitar. I love these guys.
I didn't pick up on these guys initially but now i like em.
Super cool and underrated guy imo. My favorite clean tone is also middle boi and top boi. Isn't that an Ibanez thing? Keep rocking Scott. Saw you guys in Grand Rapids in 2019 pre covid. Can't wait to see you again
Ibrahimovic is a multi-talented person.
I play tens because I push down hard lol I get it this is the new spinal tap lmao
Great interview, thanks
love this guy
Comment section's humor sharper than Scott's schnozz 😂
Bruh
Gottem
Okay no more I lost it here...😆😆😆😆 just fuckin couldn't contain commenting...holy cow..
most awkward interview ever
I hate the way Polyphia tries to act, its extremely forced and cringy tbh, the interviewer needs a raise up... Scott didnt event wanted to play any riff like what..
FindTher the dude interviewing just stood there without any kind of prepared questions and left awkward silence. It’s just bad interviewing. You can’t deny that
FindTher They’re just extremely awkward and egotistical
Chip Kanobe how was he egotistical in this at all lmao you’re just shitting out other people’s opinions
im not gonna lie but ding dong everyone in this threads opinion is wrong
"So tell me something about your gear man!"
"Okay uh yeah dude, so. This is like.. a guitar.. and uh.. well these are strings and.. yeah. so. Black and gold.. feels sick!"
*plays chord and stares at interviewer*
I love how i know exactly what he meant by "that one note in champagne like wheeEEEAAA"
"You know what I mean??"
Actually, yeah. 100%.
such an awkward interview.. Scott is too good
scott: *rips the sickest improvised riff* "so yeah"
Why do I love his shirt
I’ve been dreaming of this day, hell yea!!!
He sure nose what he's talking about
Looks perfect. Love the size. Love the colors. Cool ass guitar 🎸
this interview is hilarious
We are waiting for Plini's Rig
That's not going to be much lol. He's a simple dude, with a simple rig.
@@ooferrell I saw him on Phoenix 2 weeks ago, and I'm not sure if he has a pedalboard Ax8 maybe and want to know about his amps.
I believe he's using the axe fx 3.
Lol. Strandberg sig, and an Axe FX
Hell yes!
Chris: you are master of hammer on and pull off
Scott: yeah, i hammer ( i hammer on)
dam can;t stop laughing......hehehehehlol
nice guitar and amazing skills
Slm 10 is a beast, it plays so good!
The Ibanez Andy Timmons ATZ100 has SSS and 22 frets. Perhaps Ibanez didn't want to have two similar spec'd models?
Scott is such a goon I love it
Clay Gober just coming out of nowhere having no idea what's going on🤣
Scott is so awkward I love it
Scott "Know what I mean?" LePage
He said it at the exact same moment i read your comment
I may be seven months late to seeing this rig rundown, but I didn’t know they had such good weed in Nashville.
Fun guy. Cool tones. Love Ibanez. Was the guitar recorded direct, or was it a camera mic?
What is that app he’s talking about at the end for the in-ears ??
Their signature ibbys are my favorite in the current line up! Well done boys!
