    so glad your doing a demo of a baritone the way it should be done. Unlike a bunch of guitar stores, where their video is just some boring blues riff (not saying blues is, just the riff happens to be) and not showing off the low properly.

    Rabea, I just wanted to say that every playing demo you put out amazes me. Your picking during the ambient sections show how much you have worked on your technique. Transitioning between fingerstyle and picking is beautiful as well as the tone you get out of the guitar. Awesome work!!!

    Absolutely killer my brother!! I just absolutely love your content. I share it all the time on Facebook. Rabea’ you are my favorite modern hard rock guitarist. I played bass guitar and rock bands doing the club and casino circuit for over 18 years. I have not played professionally since 1994. I definitely know a good player when I hear one. Lol I absolutely love what you do my brother. You are one of the best out there today. And as long as you keep making music I’ll keep listening and sharing! Bless you my brother!🎸🎶

  • @therewasascene
    @therewasascene Před 2 měsíci

    Yes I think Silos would do that thing right. My only hesitation would come from how good the split tone is but you might get the most use out of it with silos and not splitting at all.

    4:26 I. Absolutely. Love. How. It. Sounds. Holy o.O I know it's also your skills, dialed in tone and the amp/plugin you use, but still. The clarity of the notes, the resonance and overall choppy and full sound of that instrument. I also really love the black and gold combination. Pure win :)

      @RabeaMassaad  Před 2 měsíci +2

      Well.. haha it wasn’t really like that. The guys at Hapas offered to send me the guitar and it was at a pretty hectic time for me. Since their builds can take anywhere from 12-18 months, it slipped my mind until they got back in touch to let me know the build was nearing completion. I earn a living doing what I do don’t get me wrong. But it’s not a case of I just chuck tons of cash everywhere and forgot that I bought it hahaha

    Absolutely sick guitar but I'm confused, did it take 16 months after it was finished for you to receive it? Or did you not open it for almost a year and a half? Or did you put wrong dates in your show notes? Lol somethings not rite but dam I'd love one of those spec'd very similar

      Since lockdown it’s been quieter for me on the live side since my band Toska broke up. I’ve had the odd gig and the tours with frogleap. But that’s all gonna change this year, launching my new band Vower soon!
      I’ve always played shows and toured since I was in my late teens. CZcams became a way for me to continue doing what I love but also earn a living and get out there as a guitar player onto the internet. I wouldn’t say I’m leaning heavily into CZcams. Much less nowadays than a few years ago.
      But yeah ultimately I’ll always want to play live and write music, because that’s why I started!
