[@DustinAndNatasha]

@MrGejep14 how is it a fail?

[@gunstabber]

@MattVehemety642 I don't know what your talking about, I have a USA RR1, and it was made after Fender took over Jackson, and the build quality is amazing, albeit the output jack is in a somewhat awkward position.

[@ElGbayRGX]

I like the first part of the lick for my opinion this guy is really good !, im not that metal kid so im learning easy but funny metal stuff !!

[@guitrz1]

absolutly love the rhodes jackson

[@kingmonster12]

[@andreadiatene]

[@NonsensicalReality]

[@andreadiatene]

@kurtcobain804 it was a joke about the ferrari thing...but i admit i confused the rr1 with the rr3.thanks anyway!

[@nandalal108]

Nice and clear what you go over, should have my three licks sounding heavier by the minute. Thanks and porshalloosta. Rock On.

[@santanaincubus]

What band is Metal Mike in?

[@badstormtroopa]

@TheMusicDude1997 The elbow part was weird.

[@gunstabber]

@MattVehemety642 Don't forget they are hand made, so each one may have particular nuances or imperfections.

[@TheMusicDude1997]

[@DustinAndNatasha]

[@themrholydiver]

[@ProtossHydralisk]

0:50 threeth? xD

[@DannyVashMusic]

I don't give a shit about the beard, The guitar tone is excellent, nice!!!!

[@crisDAwog]

he didnt add any notes its still pentatonic its just 3 note per string penta

[@joshkalsi]

His beard follows the direction of his guitar...

[@JacksonKV2FTW]

His stage name is Metal Mike because no one can pronounce his actual last name Haha xD

[@richicious]

@Akalack it's a RIGHT beard....

[@NiegelDK]

is it just me or is the guitar VERY loud?

[@MattVehemety642]

@gunstabber To each his own I guess

[@MrExplorer260]

So check this out. I cut my beard with a shrapnel because I'm badass.

[@TheJakeofspades100]

@JacksonKV2FTW I can, listen closely and you could probably do it to... Chlasciak.how fucking god am I

[@richicious]

2:09 to 2:15 End Boss theme.....

[@crisDAwog]

he didnt add any notes its still pentatonic

[@RandyMassia]

my names metal mike and i can scoop mids

[@ibanezxiphos700]

@TheMusicDude1997
umadbrah.

[@erszebet]

oh no.

[@MattVehemety642]

@PS3GuitarMan Judt don't get a new Jackson. They are owned by Fender now and they are shit. The plug in jacks are inconveniently placed, the pickups suck and they just don't feel right. I have a 400 model Randy Rhoads Jackson with an Alexi Laiho EMG HZ though and it is my baby. I also really like Shecters though. I want a Syn custom SOOOO bad

[@picko002]

Boxy shaped?
Really?

[@musicsmydestiny]

@suihkubad what the hell can be boring??? that comment is neither meant to be interesting nor to be funny.

[@MrExplorer260]

has he ever heard of a mirror?

[@NiegelDK]

00:09 = definition of mainstream poser metal picture

[@Bunna08]

in soviet russia, guitar plays youuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

[@einavi279]

wow ... this guitar sounds like a real ass ! XD

[@DaWeedHH]

more like mental mike.

[@Abyssvx]

@MattVehemety642 Syn Custom Does NOT Feel right. I own one. It doesn't sound or feel right. Get a Hell Raiser FR

[@ukuleleacole]

[@SwolePapi15]

[@suihkubad]
