I remember seeing the singer from Hatesphere selling one or more guitars explicitly because his beer belly wasn't compatible with them. I want to say he said something about playing flying V's exclusively because of it...

The guy on the right is 30 years old, btw.

So, you looked past all the self deprecating humor and outlandish silliness like "bacon flavored" and "fans for my sweaty manboobs" and THIS is your conclusion? I pity your family, they're stuck with your humorless, bitter rear end.

How are you listening to it? Headphones, FRFR or PA speaker?

Agreed about IRs, I have York’s Mesa 4x12 V2 IR, it loving howls and it sounds better than anything stock on the Mooer GE100 or Pod Go (through an Alto PA speaker and flat headphones). So much variation even with an IR pack like that, different mics, mic combinations, mic placements. Has an absolutely huge impact on tone.

I want to buy more of York’s stuff but I know I’ll just go down a tone rabbit hole and not actually practice guitar!

This con is the most boomer poo poo ever, wow.

Gibson: "Pay us some money and you can tell your friends you 'own' some really old guitar that some rear end in a top hat you idolized played for a while. You receive literally zero physical access to said guitar."

Boomer: *shits self* OH MAN I WONDER HOW MUCH I CAN TAKE OUT OF MY 401K TO GET IN ON THIS!

Nah, Boomers have retirement accounts. They didn’t have to deal with that 401k bullshit. They’d have to get an advance on their annuity or something.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but if your amp is “flubby” in the bass, just EQ that poo poo on the way in, and/or EQ that poo poo the loop, right?

I know you guys love Steve Vai so I wanted to mention that Joe Bonamossa had him on his Nerdville YouTube interview show. It was fun to have in in the background while I did dishes, and Vai talked a bit about his lessons with Satch back in the day. Like, Joe told Steve to learn the notes on the neck for the next lesson but Steve didn’t so Joe just sent him home in disgust. Joe was a hard rear end, I think Kirk said the same thing.

You should go wearing black robes and corpse paint, sing all your backing vocals in a death metal growl, and make your vocalist translate your demonic growled comments between songs. Like your main band is Cryptic Coroner from South Central Poland and this is a side gig that you’re just barely prepared for.

Seems like “To Be With You” was just blessed by the MTV brass when rock/metal ballads were all the rock that made it to heavy MTV rotation outside of Handbangers ball.

Silent Lucidity, More Than Words, Don’t Cry, Winds of Change, Love of a Lifetime (Firehouse), Home Sweet Home, etc

It's not just straight-forward wankery, true wankers gently caress with time signatures so much that it's actively hostile to the casual listener. Oh, I keep stumbling over myself trying to "get" your wankery? Nah, no thanks.
