This hit hard.

That’s a great line right?!

Completely legitamate and true quote. I loved that one.

So true right? How’s his book?

Great guitar! Greats amps! Thanks for watching brother!

yes i have 2 jorgenson ASAT’s maple and rosewood, 2 Comanche prototypes, 3 Legacy’s, All the Fender Japanese Hellecaster models, and one Will Ray Custom shop and one John Jorgenson Custom shop Hellecaster models and one Matchless sc 30. I’m good for a while. John is a Genius❤Every Hellecaster guitar is autographed. I am old now, have to figure out what to do with my gear.😊 Happy picking.

Love it! Pumped you got to check this clip out Don!

Dude so pumped you got to check this out! Thanks for the kind note!

He’s kinda a country metal player in a weird way right??? It’s all shred!

Nope.

As I think about it, I’m rock not as much country and I’ve seen Brad Paisley live more times than all the others. What a player. Hmmmmm.

I think so as well!

You get what you give and Brad hates patriots

@@PhilthyCasual Yeah he toured Iraq and Afghanistan many times -- supports out troops -- sounds like a patriotic guy to me.. our troops - typo

Ahh man that’s a bummer! But thanks for checking this clip out friend! Pumped you found it!

Thanks so much for watching Jerry! I’m pumped you got to check it out!

Crazy right? So true!

That’s awesome! I bet it rocked!

Love that! Thanks for watching!

So good right?? Thanks for watching friend!

Dude that’s killer! What do we have to do to get you an AC30?? Let’s make it happen!

Gonna shoot an eye out...lamp?

It's from the movie "A Christmas Story ". It's available online.

We should all be so lucky to have a lamp like that!

My thought exactly! I bought a used Hiwatt head in the 80’s in a Birmingham, AL guitar shop and they said, “oh, we don’t have the power cord for it…”. I said, “it’s ok, I know a guy who can make me one (I was 17 at the time and didn’t have the entire clue). Took it to the guy and he said, “well, you need a whole new transformer if you’re going to use 110V and we’ll have to swap out some other bits too.” Turned out that converting the head to use in the US cost as much as the amp to begin with.

Amps set to 220v will have more kick than same amp running at 120v as you're using the entire primary of the power transformer and not just a secondary tap. Marshalls especially...

And you will blow your power transformer in the long run by doing so...

Some great info here. Love this thread!

Reissue?

Dude that’s awesome! Some great gear right there!

I was just going to comment "it's the lamp from A Christmas Story" 😂 love it 👍

😂 so good right??

Yessss!

No way! That’s so cool! Thanks for checking this clip out!

Right??? You can have some fun with that one. Is that what you play?

@@thezakkuhnshow Yes, except that my Mesa seems to be a one-off, and has no twin that I can find. (KZfaq: “My Strange Mesa” to see it.)

I took guitar lessons from Bernie

@@buzzedalldrink9131 : He was up there with all the best! I saw him on stage with Steve Vai at the Burch Hill and on stage with Warren Haynes and the State Theater. He left both them guys speechless!

@@theirritatedirishman5440 I was not there but was told Vai looked like his ego got bruised

@@buzzedalldrink9131 : I’m telling you that Vai was stunned! Everyone in the audience was. Everyone has to learn that Bernie was a blues/rock player. He was a “Fusion” player. He had a lot of Bebop runs in his solo’s. Steve Morse mixed rock/country/classical and Bernie was a rock/jazz/blues mix. Still fusion just a different take.

@@theirritatedirishman5440 I heard that. Theres no doubt Bernie was a great player. He was just not the right teacher for me. I only took lessons from him for about six months. I did go see him play a few times. I was sorry to hear about his passing.

Always best to bring real amps if you can. Sometimes it’s not an option though. I always fight for real amps though!

@@thezakkuhnshow Always warms my heart to hear that players are still “tubing” I’m a session and studio player for over 45 years with a fare amount of road time, I don’t like touring and I hate in ear mons Old school and old tech always worked for me but I do own Fractal AxeFx3 and a Kemper the Fx are fine but the amp models are nothing like my real rigs, ✌🏻

Thanks for watching this clip brother!

Trainwreck Rocket is a VOX AC30 perfected. AC30 has quite a few issues Ken Fischer improved the circuit in both tone and feel. Not a massive fan of the Vox cab, a vintage Ampeg cab with Pre-Rolla 30s in it is a much improved sound with that circuit (also Ken Fischer's choice)

No offense but I’d put up anyone of my two rocks over a Vox any day. They not only have headroom and a frequency range and touch sensitivity that dwarfs other amps but they are built like tanks and they don’t die during gigs and they last. A well maintained hand wired AC30 are great amps but there’s other circuits out there that have taken that base and improved upon it. Josh smith used one with a super reverb for years and eventually switched to Vintage Deluxe with another amp either being a Morgan or a Fender

So after attending a Brad Paisley concert you were able to go back stage after the show, right ! That story is not true. Not sure if Brad views this video , but if he does he can set the record straight.

@@mikezaite1335 No I didn't go "backstage". The arena in Knoxville wasn't completely sold out so there was a whole back part of the seats you could walk through. So I did and wound up behind and above the stage to look down on the stage and what was behind the curtain on the stage and that is where an AC30 was sitting with a mic in front of it.

@@keithremedy Josh uses Morgans now and Morgan amps are basically "boutique" AC30's. I've got an AC30 combo and I've got an AC30 head that I pair with the Morgan cab that comes with the Morgan AC20 and the cab is basically meant to function like the speakers of a vintage AC30. It has a blue and a cream in it and it's awesome. Honestly the cab itself sounds better than the actual combo amp with the greenbacks in it but I love them so much I AB and run them together. The thing about Vox is each player that uses them sounds vastly different from every other player that uses them. Fenders generally are easy to spot no matter who is playing them. Others can get LEGENDARY tone out of Fenders but I've had many and I've never been able to personally accomplish the sound I want with a Fender but a cranked AC30 is the sound I desire more than anything and it's the only amp I've ever found that can give me that. I know what Brad means when he talks about that.

Ha! I love Slayer as well! Thanks for watching brother!

Thanks for watching!!!

🙌🙌🙌

Or it’s real!

He sure can! Thank you for watching!

Interesting take. Is that your go to rig?

@thezakkuhnshow not really now, at the level I'm capable of playing and for the sake of my neighbors. But I did have a '63 Super Reverb in the 70's, you could hear it down the block because it wouldn't break up until it was at 5 or 6 volume. It was very clean and loud and the rig reminded me of it's tone. I did see Dave Mason a few years back and got to meet him. Dave's rig was a Fender drip edge Deluxe and a Vox AC30 piggyback. He obviously sounded phenomenal with a Stratocaster. My amps now are 5-18 watt's, old Supro's with 7369's or 6V6's with 12AX7 pre amps. Or EL84 Fender and Peavey's with a master volume

Boom!

It’s hard to find those real vintage ones! There are some great clones on the market though, like you said!

Ha! If you can find them, i’ll take them every time! 😀

@@thezakkuhnshow $40,000

Most amps back then had a plug that you turned to get the different voltages.

At least on Marshall's and Voxes.

🎸😎🤘

But you still watched the clip?

I don’t get it?

@@thezakkuhnshow You're right, you don't, and never will.

A lot less fans my friend! Fuck this guy!

yeah it is terrible when someone tries to save your life, aint it....

@@joellemaster998 that experimental drug they pushed did more harm than good. Simp.

And yet here you are listening. Your loss, not his.

@@jeffmariajenson9751 You must not understand the entertainment business. He is in the entertainment business and it's literally his loss if me (and or others) don't listen to him and or go to his shows because of his fear mongering, govt oppressing beliefs.

Right??? So good!
