    Pete Thorn is a savage player who's tone is always on point. I've been a huge fan of his videos since moving to LA a while back and finding out about him. I love the way he has such a huge affinity for amplifiers and traditional amp tones but has also embraced the tech shift towards modeling and IRs. He blends them together so well! Such a rad dude!

    I run Suhr pickups in my HSS Strat. Thornbucker Plus in the bridge, V60LP single coils with wiring harness. I pretty much live on the Thornbucker. Pete and John Suhr actually replied to my thread on The Gear page in 2017 with what would fit into my Strat. Still play this guitar daily and people always ask about the pickups. The clarity in the Thornbucker Plus even with high gain is amazing. Well done Pete!!!

    @skyhorseprice6591 2 года назад

    Being a tone freak myself, I always love to see what Pete is using. Beeee- _caaaauuse,_ every single guitar/amp/plug in/setting he demo'd sounded awesome!
    About Les Paul's with busted headstocks: I think the heavyness of that guitar (in weight), combined with the tendency of overly rambunctious rock guitarists to play them, results in the 'busted headstock syndrome.'
    I was playing the Agora in Columbus Ohio some years ago, and we had a great set so at the end I got carried away and started spinning my Les Paul around my head by the strap. It made this great sorta _WEEEEEeeeeEEEEEEeeeeEe_ feedback sound, and then the strap broke! Guitar went in a ballistic arc about 20 feet, hit right on the headstock, which snapped off and hung by the strings.
    It went _KAaaa-BONNGG!_ like the world's biggest gong, the audience went nuts and the whole front row started screaming "BREAK THE OTHER END! BREAK THE OTHER END!"
    I just tried not to cry. Had to send it back to Gibson to get it fixed. Funny thing is, the fracture pattern looked almost exactly like the one on Pete's Les Paul.😱🤣🤟

    It's funny. Most people idolize the known guitar heroes (and I include myself). Hendrix, Page, Beck, Clapton, EVH, Vai, etc...but after watching a ton of Pete (and seeing him when he toured with Chris Cornell) he is squarely in my Guitar Hero Pantheon even though he refers to himself as a "sideman". He and Tim Pierce, two of the nicest guitarists who I'm glad are having their moments thanks to the internet era.
