Working out ideas for the solo section of a new song
I've been slacking on mew music. Time to get back after it! Trying to write solos, rather than just improvising everything until I get a good take, and honestly, this process is enough fun I wish I'd done this years ago. A few flubs in here but noting major and nothing I won't smooth out by the time I cut this for real.
Signal chain was Fender American Standard Strat, Suhr ML Standards, Mesa Mark V, SM57 and MD421, BAE 1073MP, and Neve 551, plus some delay and compression in the mix. Clean guitars are still all VSTs, and the drums are barely more than loops.

Quick iPhone 4k test - American Standard Strat, Suhr ML Standards, Mesa Mark V

I actually didn’t know my iPhone shot 4k until yesterday, and 30FPS is supposed to play nicest with UA-cam’s settings so I wanted to give it a quick try. Gain a little over noon on Mark IV mode on my Mark V.

PAF 7 and PAF Pro 7: How close is a PAF to a PAF Pro?

PAF 7: Clean: 0:04 Distorted: 0:40 PAF Pro 7: Clean: 1:17 Distorted: 1:49 The PAF Pro has long been my favorite six string neck humbucker, but I've always thought the PAF7 fell a little short of the PAF Pro. So, when I had an opportunity to grab a PAF Pro 7, I jumped on it. I can't say much about the genesis of this pickup, but I've seen a few endorser guitars spec'd out with a PAF Pro 7, so I ...

Same guitar, same amp, same settings, same recording signal chain, same strings.
Suhr Singlecoils: ML Standard vs V60, clean and distorted (alder Strat)
Переглядів 44 тис.6 років тому
The Suhr ML Standards have been my favorite singlecoils for some time now, but I wanted to try something different in a rosewood necked ash Strat so I grabbed a set of the V60s. Before I installed them, though, I thought I'd briefly throw them in the Strat I had the MLs in to do an A/B comparison, since there were so few good comparison clips of these two pickups on the net. ML Standard: clean ...
Mesa Mark-V: Ch2 Edge Mode Texas Blues

This channel and mode were an unexpected favorite of mine when I bought this amp - I'd oly ever played it with humbuckers and wasn't really impressed, but Edge with singlecoils is a whole different beast; glassy, searing, dynamically responsive breakup sounds that sound way more like a small amp on the edge of meltdown than a 90-watt tube head at a comfortable volume. The gain was maybe at 2 o'...

Mesa Boogie Mark V - Ch 3 Mark IV Mode - John Petrucci vibe (Suhr Modern 7)
Переглядів 2,3 тис.6 років тому
A quick improv going for a John Petrucci sort of feel (just with less-amazing playing) to put my new Mark V through its paces. The video is a little grainy, poor lighting, but the amp itself was mic'd up with a SM57 and MD421 through a BAE 1073MP and an Apogee Ensemble, so the sound quality is clean. There's almost nothing on the guitars, there was a Timeline X4 in the loop and I did a light lo...

BYOC Classic Overdrive Demo - clean amp (blues and blues/rock)

Demonstrating a range of settings on my BYOC (Build Your Own Clone) Classic Overdrive I built earlier this year, their take on a TS808-style circuit. I primarily use this as a boost in front of a distorted amp, but I wanted something that could also hold its own for bluesier, singing lead playing at a blues jam, and I'd say it delivers. In retrospect, I should have angled the pedal a little mor...

Hmmmm are we sure it’s not the same setup lol….
This ain't no improv, this is "No Regrets".
Amazing playing, tone and taste!
Very nice demo. It would be helpful to keep the logo of the current pickup on screen. And if you have a good video editing program, you could 'interleave' the V60 vs V60LP segments. IOW, V60 neck clean, then V60LP neck clean, etc. By the time I got to the clean tones for the V60LP, I no longer had the V60 reference in mind, cause the last thing I had heard was the distorted clips for the V60's. Anyway, the V60LP set seemed sweeter, balanced, and less aggressive than the V60's.
I just bought a pre-wired Eric Johnson pick guard for my 40th Anniversary Squier Strat can't wait to install them!
I'm leaning towards the fat 50's, although I can't seem to tell the difference between them and the Texas specials.
Hi Drew. I love this demo. I am a tele player and have really been wanting to get a strat again. I play country and soft rock/classic rock. I mostly play clean or with light overdrive but I also like to crank the distortion from time to time. Would this be a good choice puckup or might you suggest another?
Although, they sound similar, Fender's are Fender's. There's a slight recognizable tone change.
Great playing! Thanks for making this one.
Surprisingly the EJ set sounds fatter and quackier than the Fat 50’s and TXSP
The Paf Pro is just one of the best in the neck👍
Que lindo suena eso, muy buena ideas para que terminen en una canción. nuevo amigo. Saludos. Chango
muchas gracias nuevo amigo!
Nice...
hi on the 2 pos useing the at-1 area 61 mid does the at-1 split if so does it hum being split?did you split the middle pickup at all?or was it full humbucker mid and full humbucker bridge?
Neck/Middle Eric Johnson 1:17 Fat 50's 1:40 Texas Special 2:03
Outstanding video sir. EJ's for me, Especially the bridge
I have a 7 string SG that has had PAF 59 7 and Super Distortion 7 put in it. I love both pickups very much, but the Super Distortion is quite a bit louder then the PAF. In a 7 string it's a bit like a Tony Iommi pickup actually, a bit hard to control, as much as I love it. If I had a PAF PRO 7 in the bridge instead of normal PAF 7 would the volume be more even between the two pickups? if i cant improve the situation its not the end of the world. still sounds great. there's a real sweetspot for tone when both pickups are active at once. Ive never had anything like it before. closest thing was my Gibson Tony Iommi humbuckers, except these are more uneven, yet vastly easier to control.
Appreciate this comparison. Trying to find a good neck pickup match for a Super 3. These vids definitely help.
Slow down mister
treble bleed sounds like a strat/tele combination. ill pass
1:51 4:17
If you like the Fat 50’s, you can get that tone with a good compressor and a set of those EJ’s…thickens ‘em right up! Great demo BTW.
Funny, I literally just bought a set of EJs with an origin cali76 stacked compressor! Gonna be a sweet sound
That is a really nice looking 7 string you got there and and this makes for a really great lesson! I like watching these videos when I can't play guitar as I can still learn things from it. I want to buy a UV guitar but they're so expensive, like $2000~+ or more, do you think it's playability matches it's price tag?
I like that Fat 50s a tad better. Just a little more bottom end. Just a touch. They both sound great.
The best Comparison in internet, no talking, AND specially NO "that P Shows" endless slow how it can clean with guitar volume and showing max level fuzz only 2 seconds ). Ah now i'm happy.
I like any of them. PAF sound too much modern, Evolution is juste a dull pickup.
Suhr were a bit brittle in the high end. Ugh.
PAF 7 sound more single coilish with stronger attack. I liked it more. I never heard about PAF Pro 7. No such pickup on DiMarzio's official web page. Is it custom shop?
I bought this one second hand, I believe it was custom wound for an endorser who eventually sold it. I ran the specs past Dimarzio and they confirmed it was legit. I definitely like it more than the PAF7, but honestly I was surprised they were as close as they were.
@@drewpeterson7 I've already found info about PAF Pro 7. They were made for Joe Satriani's limited edition 7 string signature Ibanez. There are also FRED 7 too ware made for his 7 string guitars.

Surprising you're commenting 6 days before I watch the video after years of it being out. Thank you though, very useful
pickups really depend on how you set the trussrod, string action, nut action, etc..most of them might sound good or might choke and sound "boxy" depending on the overall setup...
The fat 50s are punchier and have more twang
You are good no matter which one you choose. If you are new to Money Pit game and looking to upgrade, I would suggest Dimarzio Super Distortion / PAF (dp103) or Emg 81 / 60, Duncan Custom (sh-5 / tb-5) / Jazz model. These pickup combinations are very versatile.
Evolution (bridge) / Liquifire (neck) combo is also very versatile with high output, harmonics, smoothness, creaminess.
Man, nice build and tone! It’s been a few years…still enjoying the guitar?
Muscle Memory. Be patient and enjoy practicing with failures. Those fails are where the neuroplasticity is made.
Outstanding playing -great demo. Thank you. This sold me on getting a trio of FT1.
Sounds great
Sounds so nice. You mentioned porcupine tree in the description, I always wondered what pickups SW had in that ESP strat he used back then. The clean tones on Sky Moved Sideways are soooo nice.
Excellent comparison demo, well done in every respect!
They sound good , but are they hummy???
Which one is hotter pickup?
50s = clean. Texas specials = dirt
For playing pink floyd or jimi hendrix this pickup is good ??
Super. Thank you!
Thanks man. Always loved this song, it hit me harder than I expected when John Prine died, so this was how I tried to process that, I guess.
EJ's for the win. Now, what I'd really like to hear is an EJ strat wired the way he does it, and then compare that to a set of Fralin vintage hot's with the baseplate on the bridge pickup. That's what I have and I swear they are pure magic. I'd put them up against any pickup set.
Helloooo what drive do you use???
Is it just me or is intonation off or the fretting slightly sharp in the first 5 mins. It drove me crazy.
Glass
Texas Special!
This is how comparisons should be done: No talking, consistent playing. Thank you. I have a strat with Fat 50s and a strat with Texas Special. Spot on, clean and thorough representation of both. And I like each, BTW. Eric one day, Stevie the next. There are no bests, just music.
How is the rest of the bridge holding up where the string pinches at the blocks? I was thinking the hardness of the titanium pushing the string and denting the bridge instead of the blocks. This video should be old enough to see the wear.
The string would be between the insert block, and bridge saddle, same as before. The only thing I had an issue with denting, is brass insert blocks. I'd sand them flat if they needed it. Ti doesn't seem to have that problem. Pot metal saddles are known for issues, so I avoid, or replace them.
