Man that sound brings back memories. My first effect pedal was a Big Muff that I used with my cheap pawn shop Flying V sort of guitar but the wings were chopped off. Ran it through a cheap pawn shop bass amp and had the best sound. Only years later did I find out the speaker had a hole in it which probably took it over the top with the heavy fuzz and distortion. Added a Crybaby wah wah pedal after that to really get good sound.

Next up, you'll be getting trolled by Geezer Butler LOL

thanks for this video I bought this device 4 years ago

This clown is an insult to clowns.

Just picking up on the point there of amp modellers, DAWs and using headphones, etc. There is so much reliance these days by even the 'rawest' of bands on running everything through DAWs and all the convenience that comes with that, to the point where all feel is lost. They create massive and complex sounds, but it lacks that human element, and the chaotic energy. I play/record at home, and have to use headphones, but my set up is as simple as possible. I run my guitar through a Dan electro distortion pedal, into a cheap amp, then into an old zoom reverb and effect processor. That then goes into a mixer and the line-in on my PC, where I record to audacity. Is it ideal? No, but it's simple enough with a lot of room for experimenting. Physically turning knobs and adjusting the signal chain to get a sound that can't really be created through plugins.

I can see what youre saying but like myself as a guitarist i play at my best in the studio also adding ambiance and flavours to the mix to make it as large as possible that you will never hear me doing on stage, and quite offten i sound like steve on a bad day too, its what we all do isnt it, i think the mix that was acheived was massive and probably like chris Thomas said it was the lack of proper bass that made him work even harder to create something explosive and it definitely worked

It's interesting watching videos about more traditional guitar recording techniques. Heads, cabinets, mic placements, room sound, etc. Then comparing that to artists who DI guitars through various processors and whatnot. It lets me remember that there is no perfect guitar sound. It's what suits the genre, the feel, and the song itself.

Update: Jordan Boss Tone looks like it fits the bill. I just need a loaner to confirm the sputtery goodness.

I didn't you hear you mention the fact that he tuned down a perfect 4th. This would add to the "buzzy" tone he had on his 4 string. Plus, I don't recall ever seeing a DS-1 on his board. The times I saw him, he was using a Metal Zone distortion. Of course, I see that yours is modified, which I can only guess gives it more of a Metal Zone vibe. Plus it's not too uncommon for lefties to play right handed. I know there have been loads of guitarists to have done so. That way they wouldn't have to take the time to modify the guitar, or learn to play with the strings inverted ala Albert King. I do agree with you that there's an obvious lack of chaos in, not only rock/metal, but in all genres. practically everything is hyper quantized to the grid. When the biggest musical risk that i being taken is Beyonce' doing a Country song, or Dolly Parton doing a Rock album, that's a sad state of affairs.

Some of the coolest metal albums ever were made with gear that wasn't boutique at all. Plus, different tones were guys just fooling around with the gear they had. I play a solid state CRATE with a metal zone, passive pups and a 20 year old mid range BC rich. Didn't cost shit by comparison but became two of our bands sound that we record with. No hatred to high end gear, but I tried a dual rectifier and wasn't ready to give up my gear.

Hard to believe that a 60yo man (he did say he was 17/18 when NMTB came out?) is engaging in childish fanboy battles (with apparently no one?) of who is really playing guitar on this or that, spewing out "LIAR" memes, no less, like some butt hurt TikTok influencer. Did Jonsey play guitar on the album? Of course he did. Did he get help? I don't think so but who cares? I know that Jones can certainly play guitar now.

McKenty's channel is a mixed bag. Sometimes he's brilliant but often he's gatekeeper of what's punk, what's not etc etc. etc

Amazing, just amazing. Took me right back to 1980 when I saw them for the first time in a tiny local venue. Unbelievable when you think of how massive they are now.

Sarah Connor on meth

Well I'm a black metal fan and I became one way before knowing the history of all the parsons, killings and suicide incidents...none of what you've said convinced me one bit...I just think you're having a hate driven motive to criticize a whole genre in such dogmatic manner...too biased of a judgement imo

Where the hell is this guy and when are we getting more videos??? I love this channel

Pretty Hate Machine had great guitar tones too.

Bowie, Clash, Iggy, Ramones, Siouxsie, Bauhaus...all part of my musical journey (I hit my teens in 1978)...70s and 80s were a musicy wonderland. I have even come to appreciate, enjoy even, prog rock! Your videos are good fun! Thanks.

Honestly, I don’t like how the first three KsE albums sound. The production, especially the guitar tone, feels unfinished, like a demo almost. As Daylight Dies sounds and feels like the first proper production from them. Just me though.

I think anything that requires lots of speculative mathematics or really giant computer models cannot be taken as fact.

Wait! Bro! Are you telling me you're not following the science?

One guitarist. LOL. I'm no musician, but doesn't basically every JP song have two guitars? How would they even play the songs?

Metal is inherently a more male genre. Of course there are women who like and play it, but there are always going to be more men making it and if for no other reason there aren't going to be as many good metal bands with women in them (I think there are other reasons as well.)

Massive respect fro doing Andy Summers with a fucking Valvestate in the background : )

Big fan of the sweet. The singer has a perfect rock voice. It got lumped into the glam rock scene, so they are forgotten outside of ballroom blitz

Great vid! I was a metal fan (Sabbath, Zeppelin, Rush) when the Pistols hit. But I was blown away by the energy of that record that I named "violence on vinyl." Still love it.

I'm a lefty and play right handed. We are out here and there are more of us than you expect

What's up with the channel and where is Owen? Will there be more videos soon? Thanks so much for all of your hard work to produce these. Always look forward to them. Hope all is well with you and your family Owen.

Obituary - death metal band with the best hysteric and unique vocals and crappiest guitar sound

When I was starting out 49 years ago I had one mic. A mic from RadioShack . Since then the one thing I always do to get the sound I want is MIC PLACEMENT! Loudly placed Neman will record perfectly the sound you placed the mic in front of. If you choose the wrong spot, you will record junk perfectly. Place a cheep mic in the right spot it will sound amazing. Learn mic placement. One of the big secrets of a great recording is not found on the Internet. The secret is DO.

💚🖤🇧🇷🤘🏼

My thought was, it was always a cab with a fried speaker in it possibly maybe even done on purpose they may have slipped the cone a little bit. That was what I always figured was going on. 12:47

You never talked about the amp

Fucking ragebait ..

Damn, u really nailed the tune. awesome

Really, great video/documentary And Great Job Ripping on the Guitars 🎸

Hey you started cranking out 502 by Mega Dave ,I heard it

I always wondered about the stories of the guitars..lol. THEY HAD THE BEST GEAR!!

Your dad was in Badfinger!!!!!wow they was badass

This looks like a pine tele as well!

U ded? RIP CoT 1967-2024

Idk .. it sounds amazingly close to me

Your voice sounds like Jack Grisham from TSOL on dance with me

Mad props. He is one of my all time favorite players!!! RIP to a truly unique legend.

Godforbid, you try to use cash at these arenas. Sorry, your kind don't apply here. Only the plastic master accepted. Boycott all live Nation events till they are on their knees begging for sales.

What happened with gamergate is broadly emblematic of what has happened with all forms of art/entertainment - what passes for comedy these days is another classic example. The ruling class during the golden age of rock and metal encouraged subversive entertainment all in the name of destroying what little remnant was left of traditional morality in western countries. Now their objectives have been achieved, they basically rule openly, and anyone who isn't in lockstep with the orthodoxy of the regime gets blacklisted and subjected to smear campaigns, etc. a la Mel Gibson, whose career has never recovered. White men, who were always the lifeblood of rock and metal, must behave in a way that is appropriately apologetic, in other words they don't get to keep their balls if they want a seat at the table. So you'll never have a Lemmy, you'll never have a Peter Steele, you couldn't even have a Dimebag Darrell or a Phil Anselmo back in his prime. The DAWs and other things you talk about are a huge part of it, but I think this is at the heart of what sucks about everything now, and my apologies if I'm just stating the obvious. You're obviously a man who still has his balls, but if you gave them up and acted more ghey, I bet your channel would be a lot bigger due to the algorithm. Also, whatever is going on with you personally, I'm very sorry and I hope things get better for you. Your channel has the best insights and most interesting music content I've found, I'm just sorry I found it so late in the game. God bless you man, and cheers to you for keeping your balls.

Obituary is the best Death Metal Band imo. 🏆

Stooges and Dolls predate the Damned.

Big Pete really liked his big titty goth GFs.

Great vid
