It's Brendon Small of Dethklok and Galaktikon and his signature V is the Snow Falcon. Check him out Rob, Rebea, and Josh. His new album Galaktikon II Become the Storm is amazing. You're welcome.
drlove2112 His all white explorer is just as awesome looking as the V, but it wasn't released:( Also can't show a Dethklok guitar without playing some Dethklok!
ive got the tommy Thayer white lighting les paul and it is a great guitar and the contruction is awesome. the seymor Duncan jb pickups screen rock and roll. mine came in perfect condition from musicians friend, and needed not set up changes it was perfect outa the box except the strings which I put ghs 9 boomers on it and its great. guitar is heavy as lead like I like them
i meant your arm, i could care less where you hand rests, and also the string lenght in the Xplorer feels so short, the main problem is finding a good position for your arm and your hand to hit the strings right, because the strings are pushed up more to the neck, and then you have like an insane ammount of room way back there where you would rest your arm and it feels weird to play it
Yeah fair enough. I've played LTD's that feel that way to me as well. At the end of the day, why persist with something that doesn't feel good to play instead of something that does right? Keep rockin!
this was one of the first videos i watched on this PC and it 'accidently' became my youtube bookmark. therefore im listening to this awesome opening jam every time i open chrome.
i love the fact that the KISS reference in the title of the video, and the opening jam, were both Bruce Kulick era KISS. They have nothing to do with Thayer, or the man that he is impersonating every show, Ace Frehley. Congrats on that Andertons, I fully approve.
The Far East - namely China - been upping their guitar game for years. I have a Chinese-made Epiphone Les Paul Studio in faded red, dated 2009 - plays like a dream, man. Yes, I swapped the pickups for a set of Gibson 490-somethings (I always get those wrong...) that came off a Gibson SG. But man, that guitar RIPS! If people could just look beyond that "made in . . ." label.
Arseny Mescheriakov I use an epiphone les paul tribute with Gibson 57s as my live guitar so I dont have to risk my Gibson lp getting banged up. Literally cannot tell the difference and neither can the audience. Epiphone is bringing it these days.
WAS ABOUT TO COMMENT THAT:::;P[[[' same phenolic fingerboard as the snow falcon, with the WHITE EMGs and traditional 24.75 inch scale length even with the 7 string model
Guitar is soooooo well made. “Much nicer” than some of the Gibson models I’ve played . JB humbuckers are amazing. One is open with white bobbins and other chrome covered but both Seymour JB. Mahogany body and neck. It’s a speed machine
I got that guitar. I put a George Lynch Screamin' Demon in the bridge, and a Duncan Distortion in the neck, as I found the JBs too be just a hair too dark. The thing just plays. It's easily the best electric guitar I own. I never thought I'd be an explorer player, nor am I a Kiss fan, but I saw that guitar and had to have it.
Clearly Rob is moving from his trusty pattern wanker playing, he's trying and stumbling and Lee is sensing alpha status :). That "it's only love" solo, Rob finally and I mean "FINALLY" played with a convincing command of his technique, even had a bit a Lukather fluidity. Good job M8!
Epiphone has been killing it with explorers lately. The lee malia is super pretty, and this one is just sexy. Last Gibson explorer design I liked was the Lzzy Hale and the Traditional Pro, which was like 3 or 4 years ago
Just for all you Tommy Thayer haters, the dude actually played on a couple Kiss tracks in the late 80's. and was involved with them all through the 90's. And that Miku gets me everytime lmao. need to buy one. keep up these kickass videos guys!
CopeN Bacon I got to meet him because he visited my high school (cause he went there when he was in high school ). Anyway I thought it was ironic they had a debate about rock and roll being made in Britain while holding tommy thayers signature model
Nicely done, fellas...Recently purchased an Epi Les Paul Plus Top Pro and the craftsmanship is excellent! Not 1 flaw...I love the white colors on both axes. I favor the white Falcon....Carry on!..
True, it was an Argent song KISS made a lot heavier and re-wrote some of the lyrics. KISS likes a lot of Argent songs, so it is their way of paying respect.
Hey guys! I have a challenge for Rob and Bea. Do a sound like of eachother under 1500 quid as usual, Rabea making Rob’s rig and vice versa. Cheers from B.C
I take it back mr Lee, I once said the you with a SG was the best you've sounded and played, you brought me to tears with tone in this video, #moregainforthecaptain suits you sir suits you
The fact that the headstock matches the color of the body makes this one of the best looking white guitar ever. I wish the fretboard was also white. But, damn I hate contour lines on guitars...
Get in Lee with the skills ... did you go for a couple of lines before recording from the guitar strap of wonder?!? The hours put in are seriously showing fella! Major Bill and Ted vibes so you must have done well both... 10/10 for fan pleasing effort!
Please make another pedalboard with Lee putting together the big one or you both. That would be awesome. Just a fun but also practical pedal Because your channels' pedalboard videos are awesome!!!
S/O to Canada, yes! Addicted to your channel. Get Ian Thornley back on the show, while you’re at it Colin James is due for a visit! Keep it up you all of you guys are great
Wow lee is absolutley amazing an hell of performance
Yeah he was really on point this video
I've never seen Lee play so well. I do think he should play more lead
He's really been bounding along in his playing recently. I couldn't believe it was him until that sweet vibrato kicked in!
That opening jam was heavenly
Well done mates!!
That's because God gave rock n roll to them...
God gave Rob a Korg Miku
Shidonlad's V&G well done, sir. I'm now singing this in my head. 😄
Shidonlad's V&G We need a full version of that song.
... gave Rob a Korg Miku,
Put it on his bo-ard for everyone.
somebody give this man a cookie!
shannon sharp I can hear it now. Records flying off the shelves
1,000,000 likes for Lees rockin lead at the beginning
Lee, man, your lessons with Pete seriously helped out. I love your style man keep it up! I love how you guys have made the Miku a regular pedal haha
This is the rock guitar 🎸 to slay them all!!
Will you review the new Matt Heafy Epiphones?
It came out bad ass
It's Brendon Small of Dethklok and Galaktikon and his signature V is the Snow Falcon. Check him out Rob, Rebea, and Josh. His new album Galaktikon II Become the Storm is amazing. You're welcome.
drlove2112 His all white explorer is just as awesome looking as the V, but it wasn't released:(
Also can't show a Dethklok guitar without playing some Dethklok!
Something happened to Lee and it sounds amazing.
SuperRalfons His jam lessons with Danish Pete
I just ordered the Epiphone Limited Edition Tommy Thayer "White Lightning" Explorer. Looks like a winner!
Lee, that bit of lead in the intro is some of the best playing I've seen you ever play. Awesome!

That's one sick guitar! 😍
YourVinylfriend thats 2 sick guitars
i wount buy either of these 2 cuz your right arm is always hanging and you cant rest it, it just feels odd and awkward as hell
You can rest your hand on the bridge tho.
i meant your arm, i could care less where you hand rests, and also the string lenght in the Xplorer feels so short, the main problem is finding a good position for your arm and your hand to hit the strings right, because the strings are pushed up more to the neck, and then you have like an insane ammount of room way back there where you would rest your arm and it feels weird to play it
Yeah fair enough. I've played LTD's that feel that way to me as well.
At the end of the day, why persist with something that doesn't feel good to play instead of something that does right?
Keep rockin!
What a great finish ! Just about the best Explorer I think I've seen .
Lee's little Paul Stanley impression at the end really made this video
How is that not the best guitar ever!!! Hoping to get it from Andertons soon!
Captain sounded fantastic in the jam session in the intro!
this was one of the first videos i watched on this PC and it 'accidently' became my youtube bookmark.
therefore im listening to this awesome opening jam every time i open chrome.
still
yepp. it still is
still kicking it.
:)

Will you do a video about the PRS 2018 SE cheaper models like the ones that are about 570 euros?
Hell yeah Wyld Stallyn! Bringing us world peace
Lee... rocking ? That's #$&% AWESOME !!!
That opening melody line was brilliant nice job guys made me want to hear the song

I did, and I bought one! I mean how many times do you get to buy an all white explorer with all that chrome? It seems to sound great too.
That explorer sounds really good
Do the Matt Heafy Snowfall!!
WAS ABOUT TO COMMENT THAT:::;P[[[' same phenolic fingerboard as the snow falcon, with the WHITE EMGs and traditional 24.75 inch scale length even with the 7 string model
The captain has really improved since I began watching you guys. Good job.

Dear GOD, that tone was INCREDIBLE
Lee’s tone with the boost kicked in😍
I’m loving what Epiphone has been doing lately. And it comes with a strap for your coke to boot. You can’t fricking beat that.
Brilliant cover of the Argent song God Gave Rock and Roll to You at the beginning.
And this is why my homemade special is an Explorer with a ebony fretboard! Sounds epic!
Thank you Lee for saying "Pounds" in a mad Northern Irish accent. Always fun with you guys.
we need a korg rob that is just different pitches of YYEEEAAAAAAAHHHHH!!!
the Captain have got the tone¡¡¡¡¡ His touch is amazing.
Snow Falcon... gonna have to go back and rewatch that!
Constructive observation here: This is Lee’s best intro so far. Beautiful solo
"Action Lee-play" is fast becoming my favourite new feature of these videos.
Not very many people can be informative and entertaining, keep it up you guys 👍🏽
I love that Bryan Adams "It's only love" riff! Great song
Why you’re not playing into that EVH 5150 iii el34 is beyond me... but still a great vid with incredible playing from you both!
Clearly Rob is moving from his trusty pattern wanker playing, he's trying and stumbling and Lee is sensing alpha status :). That "it's only love" solo, Rob finally and I mean "FINALLY" played with a convincing command of his technique, even had a bit a Lukather fluidity. Good job M8!
That guitar sounds sooo good! I never cared to own a signature until now.
Challenge: captain and chappers have to buy an artist series guitar but lee can't buy a Blackie Strat & Rob can't buy a Chapman.
Tom Jeeves and both have to be Epiphone lol
Deathklok is awesome
Dethklok to be picky. Check out the Galaktikon albums if you're jonesin' for new stuff.
Sweeeet. Thanks buddy.
This guitar looks beautiful
Lee’s soloing is getting so much better.
7 out of 10 for the rendition of Kiss. Thought it was pretty good :). Would have liked to know what the neck was like, playability etc though.
That guitar sounds amazing.
Epiphone has been killing it with explorers lately. The lee malia is super pretty, and this one is just sexy. Last Gibson explorer design I liked was the Lzzy Hale and the Traditional Pro, which was like 3 or 4 years ago
Only thing missing from that Flying V is the Supreme logo
Please don't go there...
well seeing it is the Brendan Small signature model and he's the guitarist from Dethklok that's why
Oh no...
Dethklok ams awesome
That was an awesome jam at the start! Keep it up, guys!
BTW Lee, i believe the fretboard is a composite, not sure if richlite or what. Just shows, you cant really tell it apart from ebony.
About time someone gave credit for that song to the original performers, the BRITISH band Argent. It was written by the genius that is Russ Ballard.
NightwishLover vwhats the songs name?
"God Gave Rock n Roll To You" - from the English Glam era.
Great guitar Tommy Thayer is great
Lee, that is the the best you’ve sounded great playing and tone very nice job
Just for all you Tommy Thayer haters, the dude actually played on a couple Kiss tracks in the late 80's. and was involved with them all through the 90's.
And that Miku gets me everytime lmao. need to buy one. keep up these kickass videos guys!

7:58 :'DDD
Action Lee Plays crack me up every single time 😂
How did you know I would watch this morning?
Nicely done, fellas...Recently purchased an Epi Les Paul Plus Top Pro and the craftsmanship is excellent! Not 1 flaw...I love the white colors on both axes. I favor the white Falcon....Carry on!..
The soloing in the intro 🤟🏻
Every month I notice how much better Lee has gotten. I don't believe I used to think he was just the average blues guitarist. Awesome playing.
Ian Lenn yeah i agree his playing over the last year had drastically improved.
Lee's playing in the beginning was great!
Ahem! Argent song I do believe.
Yup
Glad someone is on the ball.
True, it was an Argent song KISS made a lot heavier and re-wrote some of the lyrics. KISS likes a lot of Argent songs, so it is their way of paying respect.
KISS remade it in 1992 & did it quite well.
I've watched the intro to this video every day since it's release. It's so cool to see Lee playing this incredible solo!
It wasn’t difficult for anyone to realize you were playing a KISS song. It was well done
Hey guys! I have a challenge for Rob and Bea. Do a sound like of eachother under 1500 quid as usual, Rabea making Rob’s rig and vice versa. Cheers from B.C
This was classic Chappers and the Captain right here😂😂 love it!
Which is better Explorer or White lightning?
I love that Bryan Adams riff, it’s only love is such a great song!
Loving the signature guitars Epiphone has been releasing, especially the James Bay, the Joe Bonamassa Amos Flying V, and the Tommy Thayer ones! 😀
Rob's solid reasoning at the end killed me hahahaha
Sounds so good wow
Miko never disappoints.
Wasn't it John Lennon who said that if rock 'n' roll was called anything else it would have to be "Chuck Berry"?
He was also the one singing about how great the world would be without possessions, while sitting in one of his gigantic mansions.
Great song. Love the paul line at the end lol
I take it back mr Lee, I once said the you with a SG was the best you've sounded and played, you brought me to tears with tone in this video, #moregainforthecaptain suits you sir suits you
Ahh, Snow Falcon... That legendary video...
Great intro! Outstanding work guys!
great sounding guitar Thank You for sharing!
The fact that the headstock matches the color of the body makes this one of the best looking white guitar ever. I wish the fretboard was also white. But, damn I hate contour lines on guitars...
"My heat is broke and I'm so tired"
Kinda sums up 2017 eh?
Great video guys. Peace!
Whith that case and strap ... it is a hell of the deal for that price ...
Oh and jams in this one was soooo goood again ...
Used to play with Adam Mitchell, who wrote lots of songs for Kiss. When do I get my Miku?
I want to buy all the V's. You guy's sound great in this one.
Get in Lee with the skills ... did you go for a couple of lines before recording from the guitar strap of wonder?!? The hours put in are seriously showing fella!
Major Bill and Ted vibes so you must have done well both... 10/10 for fan pleasing effort!
Lee is getting better every video... crazy fast, too
It's gunny you mention Bryan and Adames and Kiss. Vryan Adams wrote a song or two fro them in the early 80s. Happy New year Captain and Rob
Please make another pedalboard with Lee putting together the big one or you both. That would be awesome. Just a fun but also practical pedal
Because your channels' pedalboard videos are awesome!!!
S/O to Canada, yes! Addicted to your channel. Get Ian Thornley back on the show, while you’re at it Colin James is due for a visit! Keep it up you all of you guys are great
whats the song at the beginning called that Lee played so wonderfully?
God Gave Rock and Roll To You
Epiphone on the up and up ! Making great quality guitars at good prices
Lee is getting some tones from those fingers... wow, resonant Dude! #ToneDude
Wow!! The Captain has really improve his skills!!! Damn!!!
Dimebag would love this!
Lads, where did Hank Hill go? We miss you in the comments, Hank!
Rob's right. My guitar's been under my bed for 4 years and still hasn't broken.
