What's Happenin!!!  Here is my quick dial in of a Vox AC30 Fawn on the Line 6 Helix.  This patch started out as a Stevie Ray Vaughn patch and then I just kind of went off the rails with it.  It's a very basic patch, just the Vox AC30 and a 2x12 Match H30 Cab, a light noise gate and some room reverb.  I had a lot of fun playing with this using my Charvel San Dimas with Seymour Duncan Pickups.  Download the patch below and have some fun with it!   https://youtu.be/rt18a5h6ygM     Download This Patch Here!!

  Hey!  So my buddy was nice enough to loan me his brand spanking new 5150 III EL34 literally like nanoseconds after he opened it.  Which was super cool!  I got it and plugged it in looking forward to recording with it and shooting my YouTube spots on it.  And I was quite surprised with my results.  This same buddy loaned me his original 5150 III and I was super close to picking one of those up, I loved it!  I also had some experience playing the Peavey 6534, while not the same amp, I'd say they're voiced in a [...]

A new tonewood video is making it's rounds and this is a topic that everyone has an opinion on.  There are clearly two separate camps that get rabid with each other almost to the point of flat earthers vs round earthers. (Except for the clear visual evidence of the round earth)  There was that one scientific study that one time that said there is virtually no sonic difference see HERE!!!!   And then there are bunches of not as scientific studies.  That's what I like! People spend a ton of money chasing that "tone" i'm mainly going to focus on electric [...]
