This video is more of a lesson to all beginner guitar players, who feel uncomfortable with cheap gear. It is not the gear that matters, it is the skills you have. I have met a guitarist in a pub, he was absolutely destroying his 50s Fender Telecaster. I was blown away. Then we had a drink and I (beginner) started complaining about my cheap gear. At one moment, he grabbed my 120€ guitar and played on it. And it sounded amazing. By that time I knew, if something is going to make me better, it has to be my skils. Now, enough reading. Go practice :)
Thanks for the inspiration, I’m gonna buy a metal guitar soon
awesome story man!!!, that guy in the pub knew exactly what inspiration to give you, as beginners we always look at more expensive guitar= better sound better tone etc etc, i mean we see slash play gibson les pauls not harley bentons right??, but slash would sound just as good on a harley benton or epiphone les paul special ii , or john mayer on a squier...
The purple ibanez, I didn’t expect him to play a Slipknot song. 😱
frrr
Or rammstein
What was the one he played at 19:06

If your budget is around $300 you can get a Schecter C-6 aswell, very nice looking guitar that is basically made for metal.
comes in satin metallic blue, black, or white
24 fretts and graphite nut
Throughbody strings
double humbuckers for all of the metal you could want
Basswood body and maple neck
I don't know why I am trying to upsell this guitar, I just love it so much for the price.
Ima have a look rn thx
ohh thanks
thanks for the recommendation, fren.
Thanks
I looked into them. I'm going to guitar center this week to get one
That ibanez.... Instant love
That's my next guitar.
HOLD ME CLOSER TINY JACKSON
HIGHLY recommend that Ibanez RGA42FM, it’s got an excellent neck for lead playing and also feels great for Rhythm. I replaced the stock pickups with the EMG 81/85 combo and it sounds amazing. 10/10 recommend for anyone, not just beginners.
Is it me or his voice sounds like a more energetic Brian May.
Freddie D. Omg I thought the same
sounds almost like a more british happy sounding jack sparrow
He’s British and has a similar accent.
Me and dagan are from the Newcastle area and thats where Brian jhonson comes from so we've got the same accent
Yep
18:14 it's duality from slipknot!!
Well no shit, that's the only song you recognised from the whole video?
Yeah no shit
Suggest SO???
be nice
@@Krisuw it's a young maggot being a young maggot
You have earned a subscriber for the slipknot cover and helping a beginner metal head like me find a guitar
OMG...that Ibanez RGA42fm. That guitaur is straight up slick.🤩😮
I have one and I can confirm and it's great
Yes..........so much want.
Damn he played the riff of Hearts Burst into Fire🔥🔥
Love these videos with Dagan! Instructional and highly entertaining!
Actually, that first song on the blue Jackson was Randy Rhoads, "I don't know" from Blizzard of Oz track one.
darkman237 - How do you not know RR IDK track 1 Blizzard of Oz? "Oh, I cannot recall, "crazy something?"
He's REPTILIAN!
Yeah what guitar player who plays classic metal doesn’t know!
Affordable guitars have come such a long way since they've been outsourced to the far East, they really have. God, my first axe was a complete dogshite Squier, with really bright, nasty sounding ceramic pups & hardware made out of the cheapest, low quality metal I think they could find. I had to tune it every 5 mins, because it NEVER stayed in tune for more than just one song (if I was lucky) but it was Olympic White & had the fat headstock so I thought I was the reincarnation of Hendrix lol. I played it through an even worse 10w Bulldog practice amp (which I ruined by puncturing the speaker cone with a fork because I read Ray Davis had done it to get his 'You Really Got Me' tone lol) but I got the whole rig for the princely sum of just £25 so....
2022, got myself an Ibanez GRX70QA for Christmas. Very content! I love it!
Nice. Heart burst into fire there
Since first watching this I fell in love with the Eastcoast GV320. I watched that clip about ten times now 😍
Me the whole video not undestanding anything he said but still wants to play the guitar: 👁👄👁
Oooh, bro I haven't watched one of your videos in years... I absolutely love your material. Very captivating.
Thank you for this video!
This is a great vid for beginners gear. I got so lucky as a kid -my dad was a guitarist and my first hand-me-down was a '64 Fender Duo-Sonic (sort of a 3/4 scale two single coil strat-ish guitar). You couldn't play metal on it but was a great first instrument and it played blues-rock well. I'm probably as impressed with that Yamaha pack as you are.
He's obviously a huge fan of BFMV seeing that he demonstrates with their riffs. I have an Ibanez GIO (the one with the red scratchplates). It's a good guitar for what I paid for it and does it's job well. I would love to get a Line6 Spider, tried one out in a guitar workshop and it was so versatile.
ESP Eclipse was my beginner metal guitar and I still love it.
You nailed the Paradigm intro!! 🤘
I have the Ibanez rga but in the dragon eye burst and it's an incredible guitar definetly great bang for your buck
I've heard u play bfmv a few times now.. Absolutey love it..great vids bro..thank u!
Love that he played hearts burst into fire
The way you talk, and talk about guitars, makes me happy.
My first guitar was the 2017 Jackson JS22 Dinky. It was amazing! Nice thin neck and the pickups actually sounded great, good variety of tones, especially when clean
my first electric, actually just was playing it about 30 minutes ago, is a 2020 jackson dinky js22 in snow white. plays like a beaut
Just picked up a JS22 for $169 shipped on Reverb. Owning 2 other cheapo guitars (Donner and Firefly) under $200 the Jackson blows them away in quality, appearance and tone. Yeah Im cheap
Thinking of joining the JS22 camp. Have any of you upgraded any components?
I bought an Ibanez RG421EX which has the Quantum pickups, and would highly recommend the Ibanez RGA 42FM as it's hard tail, and has a super slim neck, which is dead easy to play. The Pacifica looks great but a tremolo in a beginner's guitar is a mistake, they're a pain to tune and the neck is pretty standard. You can also get great tones from the 5 way switch on the Ibanez especially the single coil setting (second up). Rock solid tuning, great pickups and great neck. The best choice. When you've improved then just upgrade to other RGs, which are stellar.
Respect to all of them seriously! They are great each in their own way!! My favourite is the RGA though!!! 🎸
Ryan Bazail cheers dude! I might not be able to get it in the end! Have you played Dean Guitars?
Love that “SG” it sounds great
This guy is a blast to watch! Absolutely fun!
Thanks dagan great vid as ever
Awesome thanks!
Every time I hear the high notes I feel like I’ve opened up a 6th sense
Loved the Hearts Burst Into Fire nod at 3:20 and again at 23:48! One of my favorite songs to play. Love BFMV!
Great Video, and I certainly did not expect any bfmv on here, haha!
Where was the bfmv? I didn’t notice lmao
Nvm found it
@@bethlewis7968 well, yea.
4:33 Golem wants his precious guitar back
Cool video !
Man is an absolute legend🤘
22:00 hey nice Intervals reference! I love playing that riff.
Is that why it feels so familiar!? Fuckin intervals! Not many people know them. I think of them as a hard elevator music. One of my favorites.
Dagan, could you do a store after hours version of your reviews where you get pissed and are brutally honest in your opinion of the products, taking political swipes wherever they apply and basically point out our ignorant trailer trash sensibilities and lack of any musical knowledge whatsoever. It would be very informative. Thanks!
😆😂
This is the best comment ever.
Big facts
Man...fuck yes..who doesnt enjoy being degraded by some one with a good accent...lmfao
Dude. Just go to Glenn Fricker at that point lmao.
Was that Paradigm from Avenged on the intro riff? :O
Yeah It was
Alex Clark I thought it was!
Fucking yes sir!
when?
ežnA soK first riff he plays
That BfmV part in the end deserves an upvote :D
best metal guitar i ever had was a jackson/charvel with emg humbuckers, that fkn thing was just awesome man.
18:15 Slipknot - Duality riffs🤘
I got a Yamaha pasifica 012 used for £50 and although it's not in the best condition I'm really happy with it as it is only supposed to really be a temporary guitar before I can upgrade to an ibanez gio or rg guitar.
That Halestorm riff though!
Dagan is the most entertaining CZcamsr out there. An absolute brilliant gent that could sell any guitar. Even the Hello Kitty guitar 🤘🏼
I have the RGA FM 42 Blue Lagoon great guitar very versitle, as a older learner I love the weight , and ease to play the guitar, I highly recommend it great quality even my guitar tech was extremely impressed how well it played and sounded.
I have it in dragon eye burst and it's incredible for the price
Beautiful channel
All these guitars are absolutely metal rockets!!! But my personal choices:
1) Eastcoast GS-10
2) Jackson Minion V in blue burst
3) Yamaha Pacifica Strat style ( due to my love for classic Fender)
So uh... does the jackson have to be in blue burst?
@@sunshot2827 yes it gives + 5% gain
I’m looking to find a good guitar as I’m going to learn to play on the future. Metal has always intrigued me and I feel like I need all of these!
I'd recommend going with the Jackson Dinky. It's perfect for metal and versatile for most other genres. I've been playing for a little over two decades already and I just picked one up to upgrade. It's extremely solid for the price ($200). I'm upgrading the tuners as they are the weakest point but they're not unusable. First thing on my to do list. Probably gonna swap the pickups out too eventually but the stock ones are surprisingly decent. Basically for beginner purposes it's fine as is.
If you do pick one up (or any of the models shown in the vid) you might want to consider getting it set up by a shop which will run you $50-60 depending on who you go with. I set mine up myself as there were intonation (good thing to google and learn to do yourself) and action (string height) issues right out of the box but that's to be expected. Once I got it sorted it plays like butter. With a little time and internetting and you can learn the process yourself and save yourself some coin down the line.
Anyways happy playing and \m/
Thought0Ninja thank you so much for the advice! I’m always ready to learn and this definitely helped. Thanks again!!
My goal is to own all the colors and styles of the minion series!
marc arcoria - "Aim low and avoid disappointment" Thats what I always say!
I've got a fender squier and I love it.😎
JS 1X RR blew me off! Picking it up!
I like hearing paradigm in the beginning
Hearts burst into fire!!
I already have that same Yamaha and next must get the Line 6 Spider ; ) Like your presentation so much ... that is a great pack for money.
That GV320 looks really good if I ever go back to Guitar Center I'm going to see if I can find one of those
Wow that Jackson guitar sounds lovely 🤩
I would get the Flying V because I usually play bass and the smaller neck would really help me with stretching my hand out to play cords and other things
PMTVUK you guys make some great videos!
I know more about the back of my head than I do guitars so this is very helpful I can’t wait to get one
"Now what defines a metal guitar?"
I'm more interested in what defines a beginner...
@Terry Sutherland ha, yeah
I'm currently starting and I almost bought that exact Ibanez, just the left-handed version (comes in blue, would love the pink though if it were available!). So, I guess, it'd have been a nice choice, though in the end I managed to find an older Japan made Ibanez, so I bought that (currently waiting for it to arrive).
0:00 Avenged Sevenfold - Paradigm intro
18:12 Slipknot - Duality intro 🤘
3:20 BULLET!!! BULLET!!! BULLET!!!
This made my night. I can hear the chanting from the video 🤣🤣🤣
I wish more people played bullet!
I was really hoping that he would continue on with the song!
song name please :o
@@shyamsharma7233 Hearts Burst Into Fire - Bullet for My Valentine
Nice duality cover👀
I hace a Hofner travel guitar, and Im very happy. I would will buy one of this Jackson and one Jackson js22!! I hope... jeje
I was not expecting you to play paradigm!
Bought a Pacifica 4 years ago, my first guitar. Still have it, great beginner guitar, can recommend.
Looking at the Yamaha Pacifica and Ibanez.. im leaning towards the Yamaha..
@@gregorysargent3125 The Ibanez definitely looks cooler, more "metal" if you want. The Yamaha is a more conservative approach i guess. Any way, you can't go wrong with both. The only issue I see with the Iba might be the ultra thin body, you might get used to it and after that a "normal" sized guitar might feel weird to you. Just some random thoughts
That slipknot cover tho 🤘🏻
I love SG too!!!
Love the Ibanez I've been wanting that purple one since they came out glad you like it too i love the color !
Ikr? A man should choose guitar like it's a woman - if you like its' looks, color, curves, feel in the arms... then it's your lady! There must be a bond between the two! That's why I bought SL4X bubble gum pink! : ))
I almost bought that one, its stunning. The purple is so fine!
@@drewfowler4251 which one did u get?
@Daryl Stephens I ended up buying the Ibanez RGRT621DPB
@@drewfowler4251 fine choice , how do u like it if u don't mind me asking?
Nice motley crue playing!
U did great job on covering duality 🤘
And Rammstein too!
0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0 That song is so hard to learn and play...
My first guitar was a LTD F-50. I had a Ibanez EGEN8, but it was stolen. So now I only have a Johnson Acoustic, it sucks but its something to play.
i was hoping you'd feature the Jackson Minion... wasn't disappointed \m/
That riff at 22:00 is from Intervals - Sure Shot
I heard that Poison riff on the Jackson, Dagan!
I always love to be given a couple of options and choosing my favorite so, if I had the ability to choose one of these guitars I would pick the...
Ibanez RGA Series Guitar
Thanks bruh, I like Ibanez RGA ❤✌🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳 Bur I'mma buy Pacifica as it's budget friendly, and I'm also gonna buy a mini amp - blackstar fly 3 as they are portable and tun on both either just batteries or even with AC and they too are cheap!
I would love to see zakk wylde play that mini roads v 😂😂😂
Dagan is taller than him, tho.
i don't think poison riffs are appreciated enough so thank you Dagan
nice a7x in the beginning, great song
The eastcoast gs10 came to LIFE in your hands!! Wow.. like john 5 on the hello kiddy guitar! A great player makes everything sing! Cool beans buddy!! You rule!
Hello kitty lol! And the tiny jacksons are so cute! My size!
I only had 1 guitar, a copy strat, i upgraded the bridge pick up to hot rails. Been using it for decades, for practise and gigs. 😁😁😁
May I please get a list of all the riffs in this video? All these songs go hard fr
3:20 is that hearts burst into fire by the Welsh heavy metal band bullet for my valentine
It was indeed, he almost snuck it past me haha
Schecter has some great low price models, I own a c-1 platinum diamond series and it is pretty fantastic especially for the price
Muy buen video macho
Digging that color on the purple Ibanez.
Purple?
Yes purple is the colour I would call that guitar the Ibanez.
@@andrewgraham7659 I also love that one! I'm currently looking for my first guitar and think that'll be perfect.
8:18 My man got balls playing Black Sabbath. Fair play Dagan 🤘🏻(Black Sabbath is notorious for blocking if I'm not mistaken)
You rock!
I really want to get one of the Jackson minion as a goof around guitar
Yamaha + Line 6 are great together for the price. With the Spider remote software I can find plenty of great sounds and can modify these presets.
Top 10 best guitars for blues
Bought myself a natural finish Jackson dinky the other day from PMT and its a cheap high quality guitar im really loving Jackson guitars at the moment they all play so well its insane.
