Mesa Boogie Mark V 25 (First Impression)
My first impressions on my newly acquired Mesa Boogie Mark V 25 with matching 2x12 cab!
I personally absolutely LOVE this amp but online has a lot of mixed reviews. Seems like people either love it or hate it. What are your thoughts?
Also, yes my floor was uneven causing the cab to rock a bit😬

Epiphone Is Shocking Me… (Adam Jones Les Paul Custom 79)
Просмотров 1,6 тыс.10 месяцев назад
We have to talk about this new Epiphone release. As a big Tool fan I’m not sure how I feel about this. Thoughts? 2500$ CAD after taxes or the 2000$ after taxes art collection model? Only difference to me is the headstock, tenon, inlays, & pickups. Really torn with this release!! Its definitely a beauty though🤘🏻 Sweetwater: www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/LPC79AJSB epiphone-adam-jones-1979-les-p...

The Day That Heaven Had Gone Away - Black Label Society (Solo Cover)
Yes, its different
what cab is that?
@@lucianradusart Mesa 2x12 horizontal
I immediately hear the difference. An epiphone has an annoying sound they all have common. The only Epiphone I own that I actually didn't mind the sound but i wasn't in love with but that was the Epiphone AFD. To me the tone sounds bleached out, shallow and glassy sounding . I watched a blind test between an Epiphone Les Paul versus a vintage v100 . I laid the phone down and didn't even watch the video and I knew immediately which one was the Epiphone. If you own as many as I've had over the years, you can easily pick up on that signature Epiphone tone.
CREEPING DEATH LETS GOO
Sounds like the LOGO, the headstock and a few thousand dollars more ARE the only difference.
Sick video! I was looking for a newer review of this amp and I’m happy to have found your video! I want this amp and an SLO 30! Keep shredding! 🤘🏾
Thank you!🤘🏻
I just bought the same one in blue metal chameleon, love it!! Go with black for your build, with that color combo it will look killer!
🤘🏻🤘🏻
A little, but it's just the pickups being different. Put the same pickups on both and they'll sound identical.
🤘🏻
The cleans on this thing are great. From cleans to high gain boosted it’s awesome. The price is decent also but on the higher end for size.
🤘🏻🤘🏻
Wait until you become a Jedi. This is just the beginning. And I have original Mark IVs, and it’s another level.
🤘🏻🤘🏻
Oh I see your problem. Gibson hat, Schecter guitar, Mesa amp. I don’t even want to know what your undies are.
🤣🤣 in love with this schecter dude
@@xajlalondex it always trips me out because I have a 2008 Tempest that looks exactly alike. And now they have reissues out that are about $1500. So I have no clue what to list mine for. I don’t think very much.
What up dude! Boogies are initially kinda hard to dial in, but once you do, BOOM. Wish you weren’t in Canada, for a little more I could have sold you a 35. The Mark V extreme I believe was actually the JP2C which is why there was no Mark VI. And yeah I hate when you have a foot switch that does half of what you need lol. But yeah all you need to know really is EQ a V shape and rock on lol
Hell yeah man!🤘🏻

There’s a thing about the Boogies circuit that the treble affects the gain directly. Try to decrease the treble while you’re on the crunch mode and you get a cleaner crunch. Try to play with the treble and the gain knobs together while you search for a certain level of gain in the other channel/modes as well. 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻Sorry about my English, I’m Brazilian.
Thanks for the tip! Yeah the amp gets more clearer the louder it gets as well!
Yes what he said. More bass and gain actually kind of takes away from it, it’s really weird. There’s lots of posts and settings about it though so just dive into those, get 18 pedals, an Axe effects, and maybe some guitar strings and you’re good to go!
It has a really nice clean tone
It really does🤘🏻
Awesome enjoy rock on 🤘
🤘🏻🤘🏻
Sometimes my cat likes to sit in front of the amplifier just to blow out his hearing 🐈🐈
🤣🤘🏻
Have fun with this new amp Man 🤘
Thanks!🤘🏻
Deam bro i feel you when you talk about the neighbors hhahaha
Yeah she’s LOUD. was just pinched from 0 🤯
I bet the neck is worth as much as the guitar lol
Oh probably!

No thanks

What?
I use 10-52 for everything cause my peener is big
Fair, fair
Would you recommend that over a Jackson JS22 dinky?
100%. Not a fan of Jackson🤘🏻
I use Burly Slinky 11-52 for C# standard on a 24.75 scale. There is plenty of tension. Comfortable to play.
Yeah that should be okay. I’d still use 11-54s. Can almost guarantee that your open notes are hitting slightly sharp.
@xajlalondex I used 12-54, then 11-54 Beefy slinky for a bit. Burly work better for me. A good nut and proper setup can help with the sharp notes, and a controlled picking hand. I also play sludge metal, so a note that might bloom slightly sharp is no biggie.
@@jaywishmaster1984 oh yeah sludge all that doesn’t apply lol you could play in drop g with 10s on an LP and it’ll work for that genre lol
Chinese Grover’s or German made Shallers🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
The Epi doesn’t have shallers, but imo Grover is better. Ain’t no hipshot locking tuners but I’m not a fan of Shaller
Dude Gibson Les Paul Custom cost 3 to 4 times as much starting.
Yes I’m aware. I was comparing this epiphone to the Adam Jones Gibson standard🤘🏻 which is only a 1000-1500$ more than the epiphone.
what if your nut slot cant fit not even slinky strings? my ibanez gio cant and ive been thinking abt trying to learn how to file it down but i dont really know what im doing and im worried abt messing something up
Honestly, I had this issue with my green GIO used in this video. What I did was a simple solution that might not be what other ppl do but I just took the 62 gauge string that I wanted to use…. And just went to down on the nut slot sanding it bigger with the string lol this way you don’t ruin the nut using a tool🤘🏻
@@xajlalondex holy shit that actually worked thank you verymuch ive been trying to get heavier strings in for months
Awesome! Glad I could help, I’ll be making a video on that soon and some other tricks🤣
Dude the review sucks ...delete this
Lol nah, it’s my opinion. It’s also not a “review”… it’s a first impression to the announcement.
Bro!!! I have HIGH CHOLESTEROL!
sorry to hear that
I love the fact they're using the Gibson headstock. Makes me want a white one lol
That would be awesome for sure!
@@xajlalondex Plus I would be more comfortable with a $1500 guitar on stage rather than a $5k one lol
Les Paul customs are around 7-8k in Canada here lol much prefer a 1500$ Epi
@@xajlalondex Ouch. The white one here is almost $6k, so I wouldn't mind the $1500 lol
I decided to pull the plug on one, it'll be here friday. I'm really excited to try it after the awesome 59 Epiphone I had. If it's just on par with that one, but able to do heavy a bit better, I'll be happy.
Congrats🤘🏻
I’ve gone entirely with custom stringjoy packs for my drop tuned guitars Drop F# 27” 7 string 12-80 Drop GFA#D#GC 27” 6 string 12-74 Drop BF#BF#BE 25.5” 6 string 11-62 Drop C 25.5” 6 string 11-54 Drop D 25.5” 6 string 11-52 There’s a few interesting tunings in there that might give away the bands I like to play (wage war, erra, and muse) But those heavy gauge strings take it like a champ and are perfect. Has strengthened my fingers quite a bit as well! Only adjustments I had to make were filing the nuts, no tuners had to be drilled. All guitars ESP or Manson for reference
Nicely stated🤘🏻 I mainly play in B, A#, A, G# & G. Have yet to crack open the Fs and Es🤣
@@xajlalondex F and E is fun! Although I digitally drop to those in logic from the F# hehe. They’re kind of hard to mix though because it’s so bassy
@@kylejarmolych exactly lol time to get an 8 string or a 30” bari lol
I was using 10-52 for drop C. On a normal 25.5. Now I use 10-46 or 48. I feel it has a better feel and makes palm muting feel smoother for me
I’d really recommend an 11-54 set
Is use 12-56 for B standard and have little to no issues on a Gibson scale. A little intonation adjustment and it’s totally fine. Those gauges you chose for drop B seem pretty excessive unless you have a very heavy hand. I prefer to not destroy my fretting hand.
I do indeed have a heavy picking hand. Which is why I stated in the video it’s personal preference but every recommendation I say… give or take a gauge for your own taste🤘🏻 12-56 in drop B would be good for a Gibson scale if you like looser tension with a good set up but I’d still definitely recommend 12-62s in B standard on a Gibson & personally wouldn’t tune lower than that.
2k for a very flawed guitar.
Elaborate on “flawed”. Because it’s an epiphone? I’ve played many Epiphones that played & felt better than some custom shop Gibsons. Anything can play like a dream with a good set up & maintenance. Any guitar by any brand can be flawed.
@@xajlalondex do you drive to work or get dropped off? If you know what I’m saying
I drive, and I work for myself. What an arrogant comment lol
Interesting, tbh I’ve always used a 10-46 for standard/drop D/Eb etc. and the 11-48 for drop C down to drop A# I’ve always just preferred thinner strings overall. I did try going for heavier strings earlier in my playing but it just didn’t feel right to me. I don’t even play lead that much, I’m more of a rhythm player. (Btw my guitars are around 25.5)
I definitely don’t recommend 11-48s for drop A# lol give those 12-62s a try for drop B to A on a 25.5. It feels perfect. Or atleast 12-56s. I can guarantee that using 11-48s in drop C even is way to loose for tension let alone drop A#.
I used 12-52 with the wound G for a while. They had great sustain and handled the lower tunings fine but overall it was just more difficult to play and left my fingers wrecked after an extended session. I went back to 10-52 and even if things are a little floppy for drop C, they sounded great and were SO much easier to play.
Yes lighter strings are easier to play but the tuning and intonation is way off. Drop C or lower using 10-52s is way too loose. Every pick strike hits sharp I can 100% tell you that. For drop C I’d recommend 11-54s
12-62 for drop B? holy those are some CABLES bro... i used 11-56 when i used to tune to drop B. nowadays i prefer drop C# and use standard 10-46
I got a heavy picking hand lol 12-62s in drop B are what works best for a Gibson scale. 11-56 is what I use for drop C🤘🏻
This was super informative and just what I was looking for! Been going back and forth with whether I want to mess around with different string gauges or avoid all that with a drop pedal since I play around with a lot of different tunings on a single guitar and don't want to constantly retune my strings into noodles. Thanks so much for your awesome insight. Both of those guitars are gorgeous and sound wicked!
Glad you enjoyed the video!🤘🏻
unless i heard it wrong, i find this funny because i use 9-42 hyper slinkys in drop c lol
Then I’m almost positive your intonation is off. Especially if you’re using a Gibson scale. Turn on a tuner…. Hit an open C chord. I’m positive it’s hitting sharp as heck at the pick attack. Once you start recording with that & your bass is perfectly tuned, the tuning and intonation will stick out like a sore thumb. I highly recommend trying at least 11-54 or 12-56 for drop C. 56s for Gibson & 54s for 25.5🤘🏻
Tony Iommi used .009 - .42 for C# Standard. That gave them that doomy sound and was done to accommodate for his finger tips that had been sawed off. But overall I get what you are driving at
Really good video. Thx a lot
Thank you!🤘🏻
i just bought today with the same color. Will you change the hardware to gold?
I’m thinking about it! Wicked guitar 🤘🏻
@@xajlalondex i Bought the bleu/purple one and i love it !! i was thinking about putting gold hardware on it too, which website would you recommand for good hardware ?
How can you review a guitar without playing it
It’s a reaction/first impression of it based off specs, price and looks. Not a demo/review
this is how a Perfect Headstock should be made just glad that since about 3 years ago EPI is been truly growing in me so much now i adore EPIS almost as much as i adore GIBSON i own basically this Guitar but on Black version for both EPI & GIB screams pure Gothic Doommetal for me
🤘🏻🤘🏻
this axe is nice new head make senses , fender and squier share same one ...
Same with PRS, my thoughts exactly!
1:55 I’ve heard that the original 79’ LP customs had schaller tuners. I have the art model , and the tuners are fine. They def hold tune
Good to know! Yeah I can’t find anything online about the tuners so we’ll just have to see once ppl start purchasing them🤘🏻
Gibson.
🤘🏻🤘🏻
Judging by the number of "reviews" appearing on RUclips, Epiphone must REALLY be spreading the CASH around, huh?
I got paid nothing by no one to do this video lol
Wow
Pretty wild
I don’t appreciate being dropped and tossed around like this bro
Sorry bro
