Also, when you said “Usually, I stick toward the neck pickup”, when talking about your 8, did you actually mean “bridge”? Because you gesture towards the bridge, and it makes more sense in my mind that way.

@@digitaltourbus As a total gearhead, I really appreciate it. I've said it before, but I just find there's more depth to your videos than the competition, and the fact that you target smaller bands leads to more interesting, sometimes unique setups - and even if not, it increases the odds of those of us who aren't totally obsessed with the mainstream to see some of our favorite artists talk about their rigs.

@@Akherousia502 Yeah, gear videos are pretty competitive, so I've had a find ways to differentiate. I've never been a fan of the gear shows that have a "host", just seems awkward, so Gear Masters will never have a host. Most other gear segments film with a tripod and far away from the artist, I like to get close up and see the detail to keep things interesting. Most other gear series focus on one genre of music, I like to film with everyone and anyone because that's fun for me. Oh, and the fact that I'm not a musician makes me extra curious about the details because sometimes I don't actually know the answer, so I don't make any assumptions.
@Akherousia502 5 жыл бұрын
@@digitaltourbus Good point about the hosts. It's something I've always hated about them, but never quite realized it was a detractor. Probably because I blamed my dislike on the hosts in question and not necessarily the format. Often times, it feels like the hosts are trying to get validation more than understanding, which gets extremely grating. Either by trying to speak on behalf of the artist, or just being overly enthusiastic. I don't think having a host is necessarily a bad thing, but I do believe that personality is such an integral part of making that work and choosing to go without and letting the artist themselves do almost all of the talking is very beneficial to the medium. I wouldn't have guessed you weren't a musician, kind of seems crazy that you're actually this into this kind of thing with no background. It's rare, but I'm thankful for it. I'm not going to pretend I'm only loyal to Gear Masters, if someone touches a band I like, I watch it, but I can definitely say I've enjoyed these a little more than the competition - on average - and have definitely watched more of yours, so please keep doing what you're doing. :)

Your in for a treat man...I saw this lineup of CG play twice now, once on their tour with Whitechapel/Oceano/Slaughter to Prevail, and another time with Born of Osiris...they are literally the best live band I have ever seen...the pit gets intense when they play and they sound even better live than they do on record. Tom's vocals are insane, and he usually does a wall of death during their set too, so be ready for that as well lol. You'll have a good time for sure. Definetly a sick tour too...Traitors are amazing live as well, got to talk to Tyler after their set and he's a really cool dude. Slaughter to Prevail is great live as well. And this Friday I finally get to see Enterprise Earth on their tour with Bodysnatcher, Lorna Shore, and Within Destruction. Can't wait for that show...haven't gotten to see Enterprise Earth yet.

If you haven't seen CG play live yet, do yourself a favor and next time they tour near you definetly go see them, you won't regret it...the pit gets INSANE! Tom and the guys also come out into the crowd most of the time after their set to talk to fans and take pictures, they're nice dudes and appreciate their fans.

Sweet guitars! One misconception is that the JPs use active pickups, but they don't. The Illuminators themselves are Passive and always have been, but the guitar itself (JP13/15/Majesty) utilizes an Active Pre-amp circuit that everything goes through (Boost, Switching, Piezo etc.). This allows for proper powering and quicker switching between all the tonal combinations on the guitar.

@Aaron Ceravolo Yeah man I stretched the strings and try other things to, but not worked. Recently I a go to a guitar tech for regulate all the guitar, I told him about the tune that I use and the problems with intonation. So he solved most part of the problem, now the guitar is not out of the tune and all time but the tention is not that good, maybe with the 0.70 worked better, but now the guitar is totaly playable using 0.12-0.52 with 0.66 in the G#.
@john1guitar 5 жыл бұрын
@@andrewwhitmore8756 Yeah man That's a mystery, If I not wrong he uses less the 0.62 in the G string, I've seen somewhere that he uses 11-58.
@thedudeofficial69 5 жыл бұрын
It's actually an interesting logic. The shorter your scale length is, the less maximum string gauge the scale really supports. For example, lighter strings are generally easier to intonate, even if they have less tension on them, so therefore a .58 or .62 on a 25.5 in drop G will actually be easier to intonate and ALSO sound less flubby because they create less natural bass frequencies than anything bigger. It's the same trick as periphery using a 56 on 25.5 6 strings in A. It shouldn't work, but it really does. (This also goes the other way with higher scales. Adding scale length not only increases tension but also takes away natural bass frequencies from the strings, so you can also get away with heavier strings on a baritone scale). Most importantly, regardless of how big a string you put on a 25.5, it's still going to go sharp and settle flat, so might as well use a lighter gauge in order to get more tonal clarity & better intonation in the low notes, even if that means playing slightly softer to counteract the lowered tension.

Hey guy, I know you said this 9 months ago, but I have the same issues. I have an Ibanez 25,5 scale length tuned in drop G with 9-64 gauge and it's impossible to have a good intonation, especially on the 3rd and 4th strings on the 5 first frets. Can you please tell me how your guitar tech made this ?
