So, "inquiring minds wants to know" (lol) have you left your AxeFx rig
behnd in favor of the Friedman Amps? The Axefx IS phenomenal sounding and
very versatile, BUT nothing will ever equal or better tubes. It's just the
way it is. I'm not being negative at all towards the AxeFx, just stating a
fact.
Does the name Friedman mean it's a product endorsed or made by Marty
Friedman formerly of Megadeth? I know I could just google it but my shrink
tells me I need to be more sociable and I'm willing to do whatever it takes
to fix this mess without shock treatment.
They are both similar. The Stevens is more "vintagey" with more bottom and
has a full clean channel. The BE100 is more Modern sounding. The SS100 has
a little more gain on the regular dirt channel the BE100 has more gain on
the HBE side.
what amp is better in your opinion Friedman BE100 or Friedman Steve Stevens
Signature.. well not better but out of the two which one is good for
metal.. has more gain, and can handle drop tune badass brutal chug city..
thanks
Thanks for taking the time to write back, Mark. I'm sure you're a very busy
guy and on that note, I think you are a great guitar player and wish you
all the success in the music business you rightfully deserve :)
Mahogany body and neck, maple top(plain, flamed or quilted though quilted
sounds different from plain and flamed according to john suhr) and either
rosewood,ebony or pau ferro fingerboard will work excellent.
cool G Hand Grenade riff. Fun to play! I don't believe I've ever heard it
before. Similar to Free Ride by Edgar Winter is some respects. Alternate
similarity - a few Van Halen tunes.
I get so impatient with my Gmajor trying to get cool effects, so now i just
bought gcx and pedals. You have any videos on how to set up a gcx with
pedals and the ground control?
Great work, as always, Mark ! Wondering if your music tastes have changed
since moving to L.A..........I'm sure you're busy, but are you playing with
a band in your off time?
also could you do a demo with no effects, so we can hear the actual amps
tone.. I would love to hear this monster just amp->cable->guitar, and then
maybe even boost it..
Fabulous to get the "in the room" tone down. Way better that using the Zoom
HD. iPhone 5 has a great HD Cam and with the mic it is a great setup for
quick vids.
Mark, where have you been man? I love your videos, but most of them are
from a few years ago. Please post some new stuff with your amazing playing
and gear!
Mark I find whatever you play through has more or less the same tones.
Especially when you hit that open G. Its certainly true that tone is in the
fingers! ;)
Nah, my tastes are still the same :) I am looking to get into a band or
start one. I've been really busy. My rig is ready now, so I just have to
find a band.
