Another "ABSOLUTE BANGER!" [Seek & Discuss: Episode 3]
#Metallica #ScreamingSuicide #72seasons
Metallica dropped another new single from their upcoming album, 72 Seasons, and it's awesome! Real powerful stuff. As one person said, "another absolute banger!" Come join the discussion as I listen to Screaming Suicide for the first time and give my first thoughts on this new song from the Kings of Metal. Also, I apologize for my inability to speak coherently in this episode and form proper sentences. I'll get better at this speaking thing... I promise.

    Thanks for this, Jay! 4 days ago I saw that Joey would be 49 years old if he were still here. I looked for a "Wait and Bleed" acoustic just to play this song for Joey in some way. I listened to it at least 5 times before reading that it was dedicated to him and when I realized it my eyes filled with tears. What a beautiful soul Joey had. I hope that Eloy (Slipknot's new drummer) brings his soul to the band just like Joey did because that's what he left for us to never forget #1. RIP Joey ♡

    What do u expect you probably paid 160 bucks lol. Out of all the ones they ship out I'm sure there is a % that are not good. Also I wouldn't trust the " quality control". You can drill a bigger hole that's no big deal but the tuners I can understand but maybe it stripped out when you were turning it and it didn't do that at the shop but yeah the tuners on these cheap guitars suck and the bridges suck. That's how they are able to give such cheap prices but the key is to invest just a tad more after you get them and put a couple better parts on it and for still much much cheaper price you will have a pretty damn good instrument. I'm sure this is nothing you don't already get so I'm really typing this for nothing but hey the comment helps your algorithm! Cheers

      Yes, completely agree.

    @z-9693 Před 7 měsíci

    Yeah, the f*cked tuner thing sucks. That shouldn't have passed QC. They would send you a replacement, refund some of your purchase price or let you return it. You're right, though, with inexpensive instruments they have to save costs somewhere. It's unfortunate when cheap parts or lax QC ends up negatively affecting your experience. The bridge hole thing is lame as well... but could be easily addressed with a file, a reamer or a drill, so IMHO not on the same level as the tuner. I can only speak to my own personal experience, so your mileage may vary, but I've bought like 72 Harley Benton instruments over the span of 3 years... and about 25%-35% of those have been B-stocks. That averages 24 per year (6-8 of those being B-stocks), spread out over time, usually buying 2-4 instruments per order to minimize shipping costs. The spread over time is important because it demonstrates consistency over the span of 3 years. The instruments I've bought have varied across the entire spectrum of the Harley Benton brand models of electric guitars & basses: entry-level to the highest end models, of every category they offer, copies of Strats, Jazz basses, 4 & 5 string basses, Les Pauls, MusicMan bass copies like yours, metal-oriented guitars, 6 & 7 string guitars, fan-fret guitars, semi-hollows, etc. of every construction type: set necks, bolt-on necks, neck thru, manufactured in facilities in China, Vietnam & Indonesia. Within this sampling I have not experienced anything on the level of your jacked up tuning peg. The worst I've had was a quality control issue in the wiring of an active bass. I took care of it myself, no problem, but it could have been a show-stopper for someone else depending on their knowledge & experience. Obviously, your mileage may vary. I think Harley Bentons represent a great value proposition if you have calibrated your expectations and are pragmatic about it. The model of bass you have and similar models cost like ~$100 plus shipping. You couldn't buy a kit worth a damn, or body and neck alone for that. Entry level models, especially ones which conform to industry standards like the P-Bass, Jazz Bass and MM-Bass models as well as their guitar counterparts like the Strat & Jaguar type models are good mod platforms. The bodies and necks are solid. Consider the hardware and electronics as FREE temporary parts. They'll get you by and generally work fine until you replace them with something better. Parts of every level of quality and cost are plentiful for these 'standard' models. You have to be realistic about what you're buying and what's reasonable to expect for the amount you're paying. Did you expect your $100 Harley Benton MusicMan bass copy to have the same features & performance of a $2500+ USA model? No fkn way!! Even a $400-$1000 Sterling? Not without some aftermarket parts and the time & attention to make it so. BUT, if you invest the $100 for the bass as a platform and spend another $100-$250 in parts you can arrive at something as good, if not better in looks, feel, performance & sound quality as a mid-tier Sterling, customized to your personal preferences for less than a Sterling off the shelf, no question. As far as the higher end Harley Benton guitars and basses like Enhanced, Elegant or Progressive basses or the higher end LP & Strat copies: SC-550 Plus EMG or Fusion III EMG models and the Amarok neck-thru EMG metal-oriented guitars, they are more expensive at ~$300 to $500 but come with premium features like Stainless Steel frets, high-mass bridges & active electronics for the basses, locking tuners, name brand pickups, both active or passive, with more sophisticated wiring & switching options, etc. These instruments represent an extremely high value proposition even with their higher price-point, easily competing with instruments in the $900-$1500 range. Just do your research, calibrate your expectations and contact Thomann customer service if you encounter any issues and you'll have a much better experience.

      Well, I did end up contacting the guys at Thomann about this guitar and they did swap it out for me and replace it, which was great. The second one works just fine and has none of the issues that this particular model had, so I’m pleased with it for a cost effective purchase. It was one of those things where I kept hearing about Harley Benton guitars, and I needed a new bass anyway, so I figured I’d try them out. The first experience was certainly a memorable one, but I’d still buy another from them if necessary. Funny story - I recently had one of my viewers reach out and message me to tell me that they are now in possession of the very bass guitar in this video. Complete with the same issues and the same string I replaced the stock strings with. I thought it was cool that they’d bought the return stock of this guitar and even cooler that they’d share that story with me. Small world. 🤣 Really appreciate your comment and input my friend. Thank you! 🙏🏻

      You’re welcome and that is sad that Joey jordison passed away, all of us metal fans miss him, I loved his drum style, I drum too, but drumming to Slipknot isn’t easy
