I swear, 95% of videos about a piece of gear has a dude who has no f@ckin clue how to play guitar without gobs of distortion.
JFC! Play like, some jangling chords, or like a funk thing, or something besides what sounds like a GD metal intro to an Iron Maiden song. Please!
I get that most guitar dudes play rock s**t and that’s where they kinda live but… dude! Evolve as a musician and… I dunno, learn how to play an R&B song or at least “Good Times” by Chic for your awful YouTube gear channel. I promise you’ll be able to break it out at a party when your drunk friends wanna rap “Rapper’s Delight”.
How TF am I supposed to make a judgment on an amp’s clean channel when all you play is an arpeggio of a C chord? And what’s the point of showing off a “blackface” or “silver face” tone when it’s slathered in modulation, delay, and a digital cathedral reverb?
I mean, c’mon. If this sounds like you, do something about it! Just learn “brown eye girl” or some Kansas or whatever s**t you vaguely remember from when you were a virgin. And if you’re a Millennial or Zillennial… I dunno, learn a Bruno Mars or Duda Lipa or Doja Cat riff or something! Anything! Besides being all “and here’s how my rig sounds clean” and then playing “braaang” and then going back to twenty minutes of chugging in your demonstration video or music clip.
Whatever, rant off. It wasn’t like I was really gonna drive to Bolingbrook to buy an Eleven Rack anyway.
