    Every time I see a video of Tosin or listen to AAL I just get this overwhelming urge to play my guitar. Pure inspiration.

      Yeah me too. And after about 30 minutes I'm like "y'a know I'd rather just listen in awe to someone much better than me."
      This is the one band that kinda DOESNT make me immediately go play because just listening to him is possibly more exciting? This is the only band I found in years that makes me so happy.

  • @Abrahamhamham
    @Abrahamhamham Před 8 lety +88

    He's so good that the guitar plays itself the first 13 seconds of the video.
    I love this guy.

    the new album seems to be cleaner and more ambient than their previous works seeing how tosin is loving these trippu effects and clean tones

    I would have loved to listen more of the last piece he was playing. He could easily release a chill out album for yoga and meditation just because he can and it would be just awesome.

    @RockStarOscarStern634 Před 3 lety +1

    Tosin Abasi started his own brand & he built a copy of this Ibanez. I contacted Ibanez to make me an 18 String White Fanned Fret Guitar which has 9 pairs of strings.

    • @theders8590
      @theders8590 Před 2 lety +1

      I believe the design of the guitar was his own in the first place

  • @01ZaP10
    @01ZaP10 Před 7 lety +1

    Seems like Tosin Abasi is going back to the old school with his home rig : tube amp and pedalboard. I suppose he still uses the Axe-fx on stage for convenience and tone stability.

  • @SpartanLaserCanon
    @SpartanLaserCanon Před 7 lety +1

    I remember when he used Just an axe fx II live. Does he use more pedals live now??

    • @jnh73
      @jnh73 Před 7 lety +2

      I can't speak for his more recent performances, but when he performed this past summer 2016 on the Generation Axe tour when it came through my town, he was using most of the setup seen in this video. I think his time spent with Vai, Nuno, Yngwie and Zakk swayed him in this new direction as far as gear is concerned.

    • @Stefanofazio98
      @Stefanofazio98 Před 8 lety +5

      probably he stil uses it live. i think he's never used the Fractal to record.

    • @demostraativo
      @demostraativo Před 8 lety

      kaoslord I saw him using it live, like 3 months ago

    • @Stefanofazio98
      @Stefanofazio98 Před 8 lety +3

      just as i suspected. i think it's a question of having the smallest gear you can bring with you.

    • @kaoslord4924
      @kaoslord4924 Před 8 lety +1

      nothing against fractal, but it is nice to see he can get great sounds from "normal" rig

    • @Stefanofazio98
      @Stefanofazio98 Před 8 lety +6

      sure, i perfectly understand why people use it. probably, he first creates his sounds with the "real deal", then i samples it, so he can have a pretty accurate sound live without having to carry with him all those pedals.

    • @mammamiaculpa
      @mammamiaculpa Před 8 lety +1

      Russel Blacker On tour, yeah. Probably brings the smallest rig he possibly can. At home though and in the studio he can use as much real gear as he wants, and later profile it into the Fractal or something

    • @SteelSkin667
      @SteelSkin667 Před 8 lety

      He still does. It's part of his arsenal.

    • @noahjd12
      @noahjd12 Před 8 lety +1

      SteelSkin667 so basically this is his home setup and when he plays live he uses the Axe FX. That's understandable considering the amount of dancing he would have to on his pedalboard live

    • @SteelSkin667
      @SteelSkin667 Před 8 lety

      Noah Dockery Yes, the AxeFX is great for not having to lug tons of gear around, too. Apparently flying with a lot of equipment gets real expensive real fast.
