    Wow... Can you do some series on production? I'd love to see a tour of the logic tracks and how you produced the intro song. How did you choose and create the drum sound and beat? Superior Drummer? How and where did you use compression, eq, delay, or reverb? What effects are on the master and other busses? How many guitar tracks are there? Did you play bass? If so, how did you record it? Besides the guitar gear and your axe skills, why else does this sound so good? What mixing and mastering magic did you use?

    What about to do a demo for the DSM simplifier mkii? You are the CZcamsr that can give the right example for gear, so what if I ask you a favor about this? haha!
    To do something like 2-3 guitars (HH - HSS - HSOKSDJSJD? I mean the modern guitars), check the simplifier and then Synergy preamps or rack preamps with the power amp of simplifier and the cabs? (Plus some effects if you want) Please I need it from you (and all of us probably). Then come for holidays in Greece and you can live in my house. Hahaha, thanks for everything.

    • @BigHairyGuitars

      IMO, the BE100 head is more open and I feel a little more connected to the head format. It's not a slight on the SYN stuff, which is AWESOME. But if you're specifically talking BE. I would also look into the Friedman IR-X which is sick. If a SYN is 90% BE, the IR-X is 95% BE, and a BE-100 is 100% BE.

      @@BigHairyGuitars oh yeah, you’re right. Now I remember seeing the video as being put up by Synergy. Seems like they took it down.
      You should do a comparison video. Compare a module running into the VHT power amp to the real head. I have a VHT Classic, and I’ve been a Randall and custom module guy for a long time. I get great sounds with my rig, but I have the opinion that although close, it’s not quite the same. Seems like separate preamp/power amp doesn’t quite have the same response as a head.
      Although, I have a Rocktron Valvesonic Plexi preamp, and I put it in JTM mode running through my VHT, and compared it to my Germino head (it’s pretty much a copy of a JTM 45) and I honestly could hear or feel very very little difference.
      Also, you should do a video of a TC 1210. (I’ve seen your chorus comparison video…great stuff)
