I got the same thoughts...How this can be harder....or maybe just for those who have weak control of their own pressure on the strings.

Hi Leo, and welcome in the active side of the forum Wow...... you have 7 Jackson guitars I have 1 Jackson and I'm feel proud for this Some of your gear are on my "to buy" list. I mean Mesa Boogie Mark V and Fractal Audio Axe-FX Ultra. I'm very curious to hear the tone you chose to achieve, using all those jewelery You have any video or audio demo? Hi Monica! Sorry for the late reply, been busy with school and midterms...etc I used to be pretty active on the Jackson Charvel Forum too, but haven't visited for a long time. One of my Jacksons is a limited custom run "DK2 LE" of which only 24 were made. Unfortunately, Jackson won't do these small-batch custom runs anymore. Mark V + Axe FX Ultra: Basically all the positive reviews out there are indeed true. HOWEVER... be prepared to spend a lot of time tweaking settings. As long as you know that going in, you won't be disappointed with either of these. I plan on doing fresh recordings this summer, when (hopefully) I'll have more time. In the meantime, here is a video I recorded last year. I believe some of the GMC teachers who have commented on this thread also commented on that one (I have re-worked my vibrato since then, pursuant to the instructor feedback) https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/guitar_fo...mp;#entry634674 The tone here is my Axe FX-Ultra, using a sound I made from scratch, based on the Bogner Uberschall. No effects, just a dry sound. (I have tweaked it quite a bit since then) Recorded using an old camcorder, so both video and audio quality is not too good. So unfortunately it's not a good demo for what the Axe FX ULTRA can do. I do plan on posting more videos, but that will depend on how busy my summer courses are Hi Leo! Great to find your introduction here! Now I know the music that you like and also that you have enough gear to destroy a building! Awesome stuff mate. You surely know about Vchats, Mentoring programs, REC and Collabs but if not, be sure to check them! Also, if you need some help designing a guitar plan, just let me know. Good luck with the riffs! Hi Gabriel! Thanks! The Gab's Army looks very interesting. I am sure I'll eventually join, but right now with an intensive program at school (basically a 4 year degree in 2 years), can't commit to a set weekly progress. I do like the sound of that though I know of the other features, but haven't really looked into them in detail, I'll do that over this weekend. Howdy Leo You are set to KILL! Mate, if you need a practice schedule/ mentoring and you think you'd like to work together, pelase check out this thread here: https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/guitar_fo...t=0&start=0 Oh cool! Will be sending you a PM shortly Hi Leo! Wellcome in the family It looks like Your in the same team with Monica You would only have to share some of Your Jacksons with her If You need any help just contact one of the instructors with mentoring thread available or write Your thougts on forum We're here to help Thanks! welcome ,we have to say that, and I am kinda not likin you for all that awesome gear you have Thanks! Well, I went through a phase where I was mistaking the "accumulation of gear" with "improvement in musicianship"... hence all the stuff. So still got a lot to catch up before I feel fully worthy of some of my gear Congrats on your first post!! Also congrats on your goal! I'd say jump in to the VIDEO CHAT LESSONS as much as possible as it's a great way to get live interaction with fellow musicians and instructors. Also, jump in the REC program and join a COLLAB!!! Thanks! I'll definitely look into those programs more deeply this weekend. This post has been edited by Leo Chang: Mar 13 2014, 01:15 PM |

I do plan on posting more videos, but that will depend on how busy my summer courses are DK2 LE you say........you lucky man I also have DK2 but of course not LE. Anyway, I love this guitar and was very hard to find it. In my country didn't exist this model and many others guitar models, but unfortunately this is nothing unusual for Romania. So, I paid a price more expensive and I was lucky because an musical store from UK made miracles to bring for me this guitar. I'm happy and this guitar worth it every cent About Mesa and Axe FX - I am really obsessed to make experience when it's about tone. I guess it will be a real pleasure for me to spend time and make settings. For my conceptions the tone it's primordial and always will make an improvisation to shine. I usual spend much time for this I liked your video. Good tone, great playing and nice lesson choice Will be great to see much more videos from you with the new settings. Maybe you will find some time and you can join in a collab with us |
