Except he's playing these instead of that Hamer: https://www.guitarfetish.com/SBS-Guitars-_c_1186.html

This is how:

At some point in life, my hands just got dry to where standard Fenders and Tortex would slip out of my hands or worse, move so the point was in a wrong direction. I moved to Dava picks and haven't looked back since. And they last pretty well too. But I still have boatloads of others.

Maybe they could collaborate with Fender to do it.

Well, she is like 43. I can't tell from the picture, but what is that explorer looking guitar? Did Godin make it for him?

Ugh. With all this kind of stuff, I'm leery to buy some stuff, but hasn't stopped me getting guitars here and there. Been fortunate that I haven't encountered any disasters. Computers I wouldn't worry about. Have a backup and bring that with you or have it on a service (preferably both). Those are easily replaced (unless you have a Cray or Big Blue).

Modelers are designed to sound like recorded guitar tones, in my opinion. To get more of that standing away from the cab thing, you can either have a small room sound and mix some of that in, or if you can have 2 mics, make one back from the cab and blend them to taste. And as always, roll off highs on the cab block, at least to 8k on the cleans and 6k on drive sounds. More if needed.

I haven't tried them but I like Fralin's series on YT where he shows himself fixing pickups.

Sweet guitar. I have that exact model. Someone should buy this, it's a rock and roll machine.

Thanks, had no idea he used the Blackouts.

Just looking at this, interestingly, at 1:08, there's a closeup of Glenn's black Phantom and he's got some Duncan actives in that instead of the EMGs.

It is amazing listening how in sync those two were especially when you can see they're playing and voicing the chords exactly the same.

I noticed with Carter’s end with norms they have the founders still there so if people don’t know, they’ll think that they’re still in charge or something. And there’s something about the guy in the video with Norm I didn’t care for.

I don't know about the pricing for those specific items, but he does enjoy some notoriety and he seems to not sell junk, but stuff that's in good shape and has been worked on by professionals. The only Dean 1980 3 pickup Cadillac on Reverb is asking $15k.

Personally, if you use in ears, take them to try out with it. That's the one thing for me about in ears is having the guitar through it. A lot of people overlook the ISP stuff too. They have FRFR cabs and it has a button that you can simply disable the tweeter on it. Also they have a cab emulation built in you can turn on if you like. I've tried the Friedman IR stuff, but for me there's a frequency I don't like when you really crank the gain up.
