@marc Haha thanks man!!!!

@coryclark right?! Lol

@david clark DUDE!!! What is up?!!!!! Glad you still have it!!!

@chriscrooks86 right on, thanks!! I’ve been Rockin open back myself more lately

Hey thanks Michal!!

@@stereointellect Also great quality video. You deserve a lot more subscribers man. Btw. I have a few questions. 1. Do you think that closed back will cut through the mix better ? 2. Do you think that closed back can sound as nice on clean tones ( funky stuff ) as open back ? I have open back and I sometimes love it and hate it the other day :D

Dude you’re a great player! Just sub’d:) and thanks for the kind words.. I totally feel you on liking open back one day and hate it the next. Most of the time I can play closed back, but if there’s keys then I need more mid range especially for cleaner funk sounds. But if you have an eq pedal, I’d kick on some mids for leads and clean parts

Hey Zack, for me I always decide how tight I need the low end to be, and if the speaker starts to be too brittle when closed back… if so then just leave open :)

@marshallamp man hey thanks! I’m not sure about the EVH, I’m sure it does great drive, dunno bout cleans though. What I can say is loud clean is really relative. (Is there a drummer? Les Paul? Tele? Etc)

😈😈😈

@Keith Clark- personally I wouldn’t use an “A/B” box.. in this case Fred at Divided by 13 made this box specifically for this purpose. I suppose a fully analog A/B box would work fine but I’d ask the manufacturer about using it for speakers.. As far as closing part of the cabinet that would be a trial/error thing… my guess is it would be easiest to just get a closed back 1/12 to have as an extension OR instead when you want closed… just need to be mindful of impedance… the vibrolux should have 8 ohm speakers summing to 4 ohm… so you’d have to either run one 10” at 8 ohm AND the closed back at 8ohm so the amp “sees” 4ohm, or you could get a 4 ohm speaker but then you could ONLY run the closed back OR the 10’s… make sense?? I don’t believe the vibrolux can take 2 ohm if you played both the 10’s and the extension speaker … I could be wrong but those are my initial thoughts

@jeff arowbat hey Jeff! I think one open one closed would be epic live… thee only reason I just take one or thee other is I’m just lazy and just wanna take one cab to a gig lol

@jeff arowbat hey Jeff! what are your thoughs on the AMW39? I'm between that one and a BTR23 (alredy have a ccc9/15(18 in my case)

@@fuzzatface Hi Carlos, Hard to choose. I am currently using both in rehearsals wet/dry they compliment each other great. To choose one I guess it would depend on style of playing AMW is more rock oriented. The AMW also has a loop and its a good loop at that.

@@jeffarowbat6385 Thanks a lot!

@@johnperiard9594 hey thanks , that is my buddy’s R8 (58 standard) Gibson custom shop reissue and I believe it’s 2008

@lessamuelson I’ll borrow one from a friend soon and do a vid :)

@yourstruly thanks!! dude the ox is paramount for me at this point... I’m sure some of thee others might be a little truer to the amp, but for now the ox really fits my workflow with mic/cab options and effects...

Dude thank you!!!

Thanks Kyle!! 🤪bass most definitely rules 🕺🏻

@vintagesound8112 hey right on thanks! Thee advantage to closed back live is the sound stays in one spot to me, so if you need the stage to be tighter sounding, that helps… and obviously it’s tighter feeling for rock… but that can also be a disadvantage when there’s not side fill monitoring or your NOT on “in-ears.” That’s where open back is awesome, it fills more of the stage/room, and yeah it’s looser, but for me I find I’m not playing quite as distorted these days, so that tightness isn’t as much of an issue… in your case i’d probably play an open back 1x12 and closed back 1x12… more to bring to the gig, but might make you really happy:) thanks for the positive feedback!

Hi. Thanks for the reply. That’s an interesting solution, so two separate cabinets combining the advantages of closed and open back. How big are the cabinets themselves? Are they like a typical Marshall 1912 size? I’ve heard of people using 1x12 cabs before but can they keep up with a heavy drummer? Also there are Barefaced cabs with their Avd porting but I’ve never heard anyone using those. Great sound with the Les Paul by the way. Cheers

@@vintagesound8112 if it were me, I’d just get a couple of avatar cabs, one G112 convertible, one G112 vintage, maybe vintage 30 in open back and creamback in closed:)

Thanks. I’ll check those out

@slope I’ve used open and closed at gigs before, it’s awesome, just a lot to bring :)

@darrylweller the mpeq is so incredible, I’ll be really sad if I ever have to sell my pair.. what I like most is the flexibility, tons of headroom, yet transformer and impedance options to get saturation . The recording chain for this video was just the 57’s and the Gefell room mic and my mic all into the mpdi, I used 250 ohm setting on the input transformer, and the output pad was on hitting the output transformers harder. That’s it

@marshallamp man it’s the divided by 13 BTR 23, I’m running it out to a junction box though to 2 diff cabs , that’s how I’m switching back and forth, I forgot to mention in the video 🤦🏻‍♂️

Such a difference that’s worth having !!
