Just an opinion, but DOA is a weak pick.

Terry and Ed were childhood friends.

Echolpex? 😂

You suck.

Great short review! I am 67 years old now and do want to use a small rig. Every pound extra is not fine :-) For me it seems that the Fly Rig is a good solution, so I will give it a try. Thank you!

People should cherish! Page he was one of the founding fathers of rock! And he is still alive! Dont wait for him to die to appreciate all he did for rock!!

Jimmy page is the king.. great producer arranger.. and the king! In riffs!! He played emotional.. and just did things nobody did.. he pushed himself to the limit. He was genius! And even eddy van halen said it.. his tapping technique and his guitar heroe was page he got that style from the heartbraker solo!. He said himself change his whole life playing.. yes eddy is better technical player.. but he is not jimmy page! The king of solos and riffs.

Thanks for this comparison video 👍🏻

1:40 Echoplex doesn't change tape speed, the lever adjusts the distance between record head (mobile) and pickup head.

There's not enough Lydian and Phrygian content on CZcams that isn't just about the pure scales. I appreciate you being one of the few videos that actually showed me how to use these awesome tones in a way that doesn't sound gimmick or bogged down in genre meta's.

These pickups sound fantastic!

Never trust a mic’s up Amp that probably gets some modification on the other end to make it sound like this.

God I wish you didn’t talk through the entire video

AC/DC would have been the same no matter who sang for them up until Malcom past away he was AC/DC

Bought my 44 in 1999. It was my first Boogie and was the perfect entry level Mesa for me at the time. It really taught me how to dial in a Mesa as I have acquired 4 other Boogies since. It was $699 new in a box for the 1X12 combo and described in the manual as a single channel, tri-modal amp. Having shared EQ controls over all 3 modes did take some dialing in. The manual really helped unlocking the classic tones that are associated with Boogie. I called them up and found I could order a head cabinet which opened up more options for various speaker cabs but this wasn't really sold as a head. They did make a 20 watt 1X10 called the Subway Rocket, and a Subway Blues in this lineup. I still have it and will never sell it.

Here's the sterile answer. There is zero benefit for a mass manufacturer to add it. They've done the math and not enough people pay for it. The 2nd part is there is a psychological aspect where a person will attribute more value to it by having it added after the fact. Then, finally, those who do their own work have been fabricating their own compensated nuts. To go along with your point though, every custom guitar should come with a compensated nut as standard if the buyer knows exactly what strings they'll use. Most importantly if they're using a plain or wound 3rd string.

The tricks of a magician should never be givin away. 🧙‍♂🪄

I have a 1980 greco egf 1200 with the dry z pafs and it sounds just as good as any 59 sunburst, arguably better. Reissues don't even come close.

Thought you just cranked out a big Beer Burp there!!🤣

Excellent video man, and of an awesome lick! Cheers! This whole Jimmy Page playlist is fantastic.

I have the combo version and it does sound like a Marshall, but it doesn't really sound like my DSL 40, more like a JCM 800 or a Silver Jubilee. (El 84 tube amps such as this Mesa never really have any low end and usually don't cut through in a band situation), so I blend it with a Carvin 100-watt tube combo that has a EV12lm speaker in it and it REALLY has low end punch, when I play them blended together (Carvin for low end punch, Mesa for top end distortion) it is one of the best amplified guitar sound I have ever heard, Not as loud as a full Plexi stack possibly but really loud enough to play anywhere.

I’ve got a 1977 Greco Eg-600 Frehley model as well and man. The Vibes and the tone that comes out of this rival some of my more expensive gibson’s! LOVE Japanese’s 70s lps

Hey buddy it says Echolplex in the title you done made a little boo boo

Nice preamp! Can stompbox echoplex preamp pedal do the same thing?

sounds fantastic! 🤙

Eddie was also pretty well known for using an EP3 Echoplex. Which would make sense Page was an influence on him

Puta vtwin foot switch threw it adds contour fatten up the amp

This came standard on my Washburn Parallaxe guitars and I love it.

How could you leave “Black Diamond” out?! Especially the 2nd lead when Ace would play it on his knees live while Gene and Paul rocked in unison over top of him! it is so well choreographed and he nailed it just about every time! Check out when they played it on the Midnight Special!

Enjoyed the video very much... and so pleased you gave Tommy Bolin a mention. He deserves to be remembered as one of the all time greats💜❤🎸🎶🎶🎶

Yup! Miss 80's Eddie!!

A mate had a 2 pickup black Custom (70s)... It was definitely better than another blokes 68(?) Standard... clean or dirty. I had a Jr Copy, one piece of mahogany body...it was a bit heavy, but it had that sound!!!

Great breakdown!

The fact he is calling the sound horrible is alarming to me.

This video seems to be misunderstood by Allan fans. It's clear that Ed was influenced by Holdsworth and has admitted this to be the case. This video shows five examples of it. That's it! I KNOW that Ed was a "blues/rock" player and didn't have the harmonic sophistication of Holdsworth..but that isn't the point here.

I can see EVH taking certain technique "tricks" aspects from Holdsworth with the wammy bar use and harmonics. Here and there there's similar legato runs technique-wise too. Otherwise I mostly just hear EVH as a blues-rock based player still. There's some classical influence in there too, but none of the late romantic and impressionist influence Holdsworth has. He sounds nothing like Holdsworth ever, for the most part. This guy seems like an accomplished player and all but I just don't buy the premise, I see it as a stretch, as a Holdsworth fanboy/nerd myself.

OOMMGG!!! this explains a lot!!

Oh man I saw Kilowatt so many times in backyard parties. He was dating my best friends sister for a while and we would go to parties at his house, Crazy Funny dude!! he could talk a mile a minute. I'v seen so many of the Greats, Jeff Beck(5x) Carl Verheyn(2x) Luke(4x)Carlton, Dimeola, EVH(4x) Guthrie Goven, Johnny Winter(12X) Roy Buchanon, so so many others and Kilgore was one of the best, He was wild on the guitar, one of my top 5 favorites, to bad substance and attitude got the best of him back them.

Page's superpower is his willingness to just go for it. When I see someone like Kirk Hammett or Dave Mustaine shredding, they look like they're in control and playing within their limits. Go watch Page during Dazed and Confused in The Song Remains The Same when the band speeds up. That's a man who's pushing towards his limits. His sloppiness comes from his limits being pushed, where his brain works slightly faster than his fingers.

He finally played in in the studio in the song South Bond Saurez

I'll go to my grave saying bon wrote most of back in black and more

Great video! exactly what guitar do you have there? Looks cool

Insert horrible comment here.

I finally found another great channel thank god

Yeah man, what it says in the title, is exactly what that guitar is!

For me it’s not wanting to step on my pedals. I know they’re “stomp boxes” but c’mon, they are t cheap, I’m ocd and seeing them just get a small nick will drive me crazy. This way I don’t even have to rub my big ass boot on it.

good for bass? love the RC Booster, but looking for a mini pedal form factor.

All I see is commentary..no Ace. BS

One thing that makes Ace great and sound unique is that he never bends quite up to the actual target pitch when he’s bending. He’s always a little under. When you bend all the way up to the actual target pitch (the way the guy does in this video) it actually detracts from it. Being a little under the pitch builds up the intensity.

Terry was tapping before Eddie. Huh, then people saying Eddie was the inventor of tapping. Kind of the same with the black and white stripes on the guitar. Just like Chip Kinman from The Dils that had it done on his Les Paul before Eddie. He's no inventor, Eddie ripped off everybody. He's a fucking fraud! And he was my influence to start playing guitar when I was 13 when the first VH album came out.
