I use an eq pedal in the loop for a volume boost and a BD1 in the front to add a bit of gain. Sounds great but is this harming the amp by pushing the valves too much? I have a Friedman Runt 20 btw, any other alternatives I'd be interested to hear about too.
Thanks!
Sounds awesome, no doubt he's an exceptional musician with a brilliant band! Not sure why they all play to a click though if they have no backing tracks, seems a bit restrictive to me.
In general I find it extremely annoying when Youtubers complain about how hard it is sometimes. Ok, I do get that there are restrictions and monetisation issues etc, but you could always go and get a job a "regular" job, no-one's forcing you to do your channel.
Can understand why people think it's not the most PC name, which it isn't, but it's not really the worst either. Just can't keep up with what he's calling his band week to week 😆
I saw a Whitesnake tribute band earlier this year and one guitarist had a brilliant Sykes-esque tone that really cut through; turns out it was a smaller Helix while the other guitarist had an AxeFX 3 which sounded very plain and not loud enough so I guess it's how you set them up.
On a side note I think Dave's voice has started to give in unfortunately. He had a very long prime though considering he was basically shouting most of the time!
Some decent songs on the new one and Nuno is playing amazingly as ever. Thought the production was a bit muddy and Gary's voice sounds a bit worn out to me.
I like his band and always check out the albums, but yeah it's a bit "Foo Fighters but with metal riffs and solos". Still cool though and his solo on Take a Bow using his dad's original rig is bloody brilliant especially.
Not every artist has to come from the same place/upbringing to make good music. I get what you're saying but if you're EVH's kid and love making your own music then why wouldn't you use the name to your advantage? He can't help who his dad is.
