I am very happy that you own up to your mistakes, and that you are not saying things like “Other news outlets got confused as well. So I am not in the wrong for believing he was gonna leave”.
@@sagraver8442 Yeah. In this situation it is all over the news that he was wrong and finally his usual "modus operandi" - presenting his assumptions as facts - caught up with him. He was wrong on more than one occasion, but since those topics are not covered by big media outlets, he does not feel the need to correct it. To be fair he did it pretty cleverly because despite actually proving what was said about him before - i.e.: he misrepresents information and makes up stuff - people in the comment section still praise him as some sort of moral superhero.
Slash is no longer a person, but a brand. He knows this. The more pies he can stick his fingers in, the more stable his financial future is. Making music doesn't guarantee a pay cheque. Another "signature amp" from Slash is the Amplitube pack. I would argue this is probably the best value for money if you're looking to replicate his sound.
"The system goes online August 4th, 1997. Human decisions are removed from strategic defense. Slashnet begins to learn at a geometric rate. It becomes self-aware at 2:14 a.m. Eastern time, August 29th."
Slash is leaving sausage rolls and getting pies! This is a big news restojon. What pie is Slash's fave? If he's sticking his fingers in them I hope he washed his hands...
Number one best-selling debut album of all time... owns countless collectible guitars worth into the millions. He doesn't have a scarcity of cash or assets, he just would like more of it.
We all make mistakes, every single day. It's not the mistakes that matter - it's how one handles those mistakes that truly count. Ya done good here. But this should be a reminder to all to avoid jumping to conclusions when none of us have access to the actual, relevant facts... That's something we all need to be reminded of.
When I hear dual endorsement of amps, I'm thinking one is a lead/overdriven amp and a separate clean amp, similar to Eric Johnson using Marshall for his rhythm and lead tone and a Fender or SSS(at least back in the day) for clean.
He should have give a try to racks: Marshall Poweramps have a killer clean sound when used with a Mesa preamp... And Triaxis V1 and V4 both have a Marshall channel (replaced by a Rectifier channel on V2 and V3) while the Rhythmn Green is a Blackface channel...
You pretty much said it at the end of the video. I think what confused people is that he doesn’t have a signature amp with Marshall, even though he is still endorsing them, and is now having Magnatone essentially make him a Marshall clone. Why not just have Marshall make a new signature amp? What I’ve seen from other multi-endorsement deals, is that both brands offer very different products. (Townsend with Framus and Kiesel, Metallica with ESP and Gibson etc) Thanks for always keeping us updated on the latest news!
sounds similar to the polyphia situation, but at a bigger scale. tim has his own neuraldsp plugin, but tim and scott also endorse marshall and use their amps in live situations.
think they just use the power section with their tones coming from the Quad Cortex, they used to do that with Orange amps, before they were invited over by Marshall
This isn't Slash's first dual endorsement either. For at least 5 years now, probably longer, Slash has been rocking various BC Richs in his live performances, the most recognizable one being a green quilted top custom shop Bich 10 string, but he's recently been going around using a non-USA Stranger Things edition Warlock. BC Rich have been posting about the guitars he uses, they just haven't released a Slash model yet.
I used to be on the Marshall vintage modern forum and their designer was a regular contributor. He stated NO Marshall artist got or gets paid any endorsement money from them - what they got was 24hr, 7 days a week, 365 days a year service - anytime any place anywhere. (He didn’t make any reference to a percentage of sales on signature amps, or freebies).
Kirk Hammett currently also has both Gibson and ESP signature guitars at the same time, I’ve found it weird that you didn’t mention that when talking about artists endorsing two brands at the same time.
I’d also like to add that some artists use multiple amps on stage and in the studio. Mark Tremonti uses/has used Bogner, PRS and Mesa Boogie on stage. Joe Perry uses multiple amp brands on stage. Dave Grohl uses/used to use both Mesa Boogie and Vox amps. They do this because it gives a wider range of sound.
Good of you to rectify! The word to look for with endorsement announcements is 'exclusively'. Every company will make it seem - in tone of voice - that this is the case, but only seeing this word makes it official
You say that Slash is rich and I’m sure he is but remember that the reason he agreed to rejoin Guns N Roses was because he’d lost a massive chunk of his wealth due to his divorce, so don’t discount financial benefit
He lost 6m plus 1.2m per year unless she remarries, plus he has to pay money to the kids until 2036 (not sure why that is, one of them's an adult now?!). Although a sizeable chunk of money, it's small compared to his fortune. As he divorced her, and as the amount paid was a recommendation put forward by his legal team, he got what he wanted. Dont feel too sorry for him.
Magnatone are an interesting boutique brand, some nice publicity for them, but I couldn't see Saul ditching his jubes and 800s anymore I could his Gibson LPs.
Good for you for being quick to correcting yourself. Wonder if Philip Mcknight will or Beato. At least thats what they’re videos are labeled with as of not too long ago here. Philip admits that he remembers never reading he LEFT Marshall. So cool.
There was no mistake and nothing happens without a plan in marketing. They knew exactly that both brands will benefit from this, and even Slash and his music will suddenly become more interesting, as guitar enthusiasts will engage with it again.
Ron Thal already ended with a Gibson endorsement at the same time as a Vigier one when he was in Guns'n'Roses... Gosh, the Guns were more interesting when they had a real good guitarist... Any way, the best amplifiers I ever had were... Using a Marshall stereo tube poweramp with a Mesa preamp and TL806/EVM12L cabs... Thus, there may have been some little mods applied to the amp and the preamp, there are some capacitors that I love the grain and the fact they let micro details go through others don't, which end into ALL my amps.
The assumption wasn't originally unfounded. In the past when an Artist announces a new partnership with a new company it would typically mean they are leaving the previous company. I still think that is more the rule than the exception because a lot of manufacturers want some level of exclusivity from their endorsees. The few that are collaborating with other companies (Kirk Hammett being another one) all have a high enough profile that I think they can get away with this with not much pushback.
I’m certain we are going to be seeing many more bigger underground type artists “endorsing” more than one brand of the same piece of kit. I think consumers are more aware now that these endorsements aren’t really preference as much as being given very expensive custom one of a kind instruments for free. No one is gonna pass up that bag if the brand they already get paid by give it the go ahead. I really don’t think any of this is really all that notable. Gotta keep up with any sort of news cycle though. It is YT after all. We NEED more content!
I was immediately a bit sceptical when you released your video and there was no word anywhere that this would be an exclusive partnership. Having a journalistic background, it’s just better to stick to what’s actually confirmed and to specifically outline what is up to speculation at that point. Good for you on making that correction, I’m sure it will be a “lessons learned” situation. 🙂
It has happened with big stars before though. Both Clapton and Gilmour both have/had signature guitars from both Fender and Martin. Ok, they're known as electric and acoustic makers respectively but both have made both.
Yeah how do you have dual endorsement,? Confusing... Actually a lot of artists are using Speakers with Technology that is a simulator of several different types of tube AMPS. This not lugging large speaker cabs with heads... So Marshall may be on way out. Personally I like the wall of Cabinets... Cheers 🍻 🥃🥃 🎸 🎵🎶
Mike McCready(Pearl Jam) has both a signature Strat and a Les Paul. Jimmy Page has a signature Tele and a Les Paul. This isn't something that hasn't been done before.
To be fair, Slash didn’t really mention ANYTHING to begin to announce the Magnatone deal on his own social media. You’d also think he would have come out and made it clear from the get-go with his media announcement through guitar outlets that he’s not leaving Marshall. Even after his clarification posted through guitar media outlets, it is very odd that Slash still hasn’t even mentioned the new Magnatone thing on his social media, nor did he make the clarification about staying with Marshall on his social media. Not really sure what that’s all about. Usually players are all thrilled (and often even required) to talk about their endorsements on their socials. I am really glad that he’s not leaving Marshall - I mean Slash without Marshall would just be like PB without the jelly.
If you ask me, this only shows how good it is that legacy media is going down the toilet. You'd never see an apology like that from CNN, BBC, Fox, or the rest of them. Well done for being quick to issue an apology video. Class!
I dunno, say what you will about Slash but as a marketing brand he's been one to brand his name on experimental gear that might not have sold well had it not been for his endorsement to the consumer (Silver Jubilee, Alnico 2 humbuckers in modern sound, the Les Paul design in the 80s). The gear is good and scratches and itch consumers didn't know they had, but companies deem it not worth risking unless they can get a large enough consumer base to justify the product existing. Slash loans his name, and new consumers try out the gear that only slightly deviates from tried and true methods. I imagine the deal with Magnatone is more about filling a specific niche that Marshall didn't seem as worth the risk of investing in, and given how everybody was quick to jump on Marshall failing to live up to their name (guitar news LOVES tearing down old companies right now) it makes sense why they wouldn't wanna risk it
I think if youre someone like Slash you'll have flexibility to endorse as many brands as you like...he's been pretty actively endorsing BC Ritch guitars for years while being a Gibson Ambassardor. Kirk Hammet seems to continue to have ESP signature guitars while recently bringing out a Gibson signature. Unfortunately probably won't be the case for the small fry artists where brands will want exclusive deals. I was almost certain it never meant he'd ditch the Marshalls, not after 30 years and probably being one of the most iconic Marshall artists! As for reasons, yes it could be money, it could be that Magantone are US based and it makes them more accessible to consumers at home (try buying an amp on a different continent these days...) , but its very likely that he just likes the amp. Its super cool he's doing a new amp as there hasnt been one for a while... just have a bad feeling it will cost a pretty penny
The mistake is absolutely understandable. It also shows how misleading industry marketing has become. Think about the statement "I only run Marshals", or "I only play a Fender". Unless you are an absolute beginner, I have never seen a musician that only goes with/ owns a single manufacturer and I can't think of a guitarist that doesn't desire both a Les Paul and a Stratocaster. Yes, I have go to's for certain signature tones, but I think sticking to one brand only would be hugely limiting and statements otherwise a BS. I think the more correct endorsement would be something like "When I'm going for that Les Paul sound, I only play a Gibson". Thanks for keeping it real.
One more example - Steve Vai with his signature Morley Bad Horsie Steve Vai signature optical wah and publicly showing that he has been using CryBaby wahs for past 5-8 years.
Yeah, he's definitely not leaving Marshall. Good to see you own your mistakes. 👍👍 lots of guys work with different companies. Slash has a right to work with multiple companies if he wishes. He's earned that.
Maybe there just isn’t as much money available for endorsements and the brands don’t have as much leverage in insisting on exclusivity? It would make sense for artists to have as many non overlapping endorsements as possible. Dave musta one should have had one endorsement for round edge symmetrical Flying V guitars and another for pointy, a symmetrical ones 😆
I honestly didn't even watch the other video, figured it was fake news. Bravo on this one, though! If only all journalists had your integrity, we'd be much better off in this world! 🍻
I guess you could say Marshall and Magnatone truly have a SLASH…endorsement! (Paid for by the Friends of Fozzie Bear Committee. WakkaWakkaWakkerton, Vaudeville.)
Idk man, I’ll never just stick to one thing. I like many amps, many guitars, and many pedals. If I became a professional guitarist, I would try and endorse all my favorite guitars and amps. I think Slash just likes both.
I am very happy that you own up to your mistakes, and that you are not saying things like “Other news outlets got confused as well. So I am not in the wrong for believing he was gonna leave”.
@@sagraver8442 Yeah. In this situation it is all over the news that he was wrong and finally his usual "modus operandi" - presenting his assumptions as facts - caught up with him.

Why u so mad, mates?
Deleting the old video immediately as well... that's damage control, right?
Refreshing to see a content creator correct their mistake and own it. Much respect 👍
to be fair; the blacked out labels on the amps from the music video was really weird for him to also still be partnered with Marshall
Common KDH W. Even when he's wrong, he'll admit it openly 👏
No, he does not.
Slash is no longer a person, but a brand. He knows this. The more pies he can stick his fingers in, the more stable his financial future is. Making music doesn't guarantee a pay cheque.

@@albertplaysguitar Dude, he is on a almost nonstop stadium tour since 2016. I think is future is secure without dual endorsement deals.
Kirk Hammett I think was one of the more notable examples having both ESP and Gibson lines
This shows a lot of integrity on your part for catching this and posting an update. Good video.
The fact that you made this video makes you more legit than most major news sources thank you!

Someone in the comments to your now unlisted video called it correctly. Kudos to that person, whoever they were.
Saying "I was wrong" is a sadly lost art.
sounds similar to the polyphia situation, but at a bigger scale. tim has his own neuraldsp plugin, but tim and scott also endorse marshall and use their amps in live situations.

This is the very reason that I subscribed: honesty ! It goes a long way.
Do you think his team was like "Don't mention Marshall, everyone will freak out, numbers will be great!"
Don’t worry KDH. You made a mistake, you owned up to it, that makes you better than most media outlets. You still rock!
This isn't Slash's first dual endorsement either.

He's done this before. Remember the Guild Crossroads double neck?
Kirk Hammett is sponsored by ESP for his shredding guitars and Gibson for his vintage guitars. 🤘
Kirk Hammett currently also has both Gibson and ESP signature guitars at the same time, I’ve found it weird that you didn’t mention that when talking about artists endorsing two brands at the same time.
The connection between Magnatone and Slash is Billy Gibbons
Mike Stringer from Spiritbox is another case of "multiendorsement" - Jackson and Aristides
I’d also like to add that some artists use multiple amps on stage and in the studio.
Mark Tremonti uses/has used Bogner, PRS and Mesa Boogie on stage.
Joe Perry uses multiple amp brands on stage.

He lost 6m plus 1.2m per year unless she remarries, plus he has to pay money to the kids until 2036 (not sure why that is, one of them's an adult now?!). Although a sizeable chunk of money, it's small compared to his fortune.

This will happen more often now. Unless they say they are leaving you can't assume. Just like Hammett and mustaine
I think Kirk Hammett has agreements with both ESP and Gibson simultaneously. He released signature guitars with both companies lately.
Good on you for admitting a mistake and correcting it. This is a trait sorely lacking in media and frankly, society in general. 👏 👏
Good integrity to correct your last video - we all love Slash and his art.
Yer the best KDH!

It has happened with big stars before though. Both Clapton and Gilmour both have/had signature guitars from both Fender and Martin. Ok, they're known as electric and acoustic makers respectively but both have made both.
I think it's interesting that he doesn't have an exclusive endorsement clause on his deal with Marshall (and Magnatone, I guess).
No biggie. Kirk Hammet has a duel endorsement with ESP & Gibson. I think James is gonna do it too
Clever PR imo. They knew keeping it vague would get the reaction it got.
Yeah how do you have dual endorsement,? Confusing... Actually a lot of artists are using Speakers with Technology that is a simulator of several different types of tube AMPS.

Slash will feature the Magnatone Amps when he releases his upcoming blues solo album and then be back to Marshall for his GNR/Conspirators work..
I think that Slash would use the Magnatone for the lower gain, up to crunchy stuff whereas the Marshall is for the higher gain rhythm and leads.
Mike McCready(Pearl Jam) has both a signature Strat and a Les Paul. Jimmy Page has a signature Tele and a Les Paul. This isn't something that hasn't been done before.
Bill Kelliher with Friedman and Victory amps is an example
Kirk Hammett endorses multiple guitar brands

He didn't need to say he didn't leave. It made no mention of it anywhere during any of this. People just made the assumption based on zero logic.
If you ask me, this only shows how good it is that legacy media is going down the toilet. You'd never see an apology like that from CNN, BBC, Fox, or the rest of them.
Well done for being quick to issue an apology video. Class!
Devin also has a signature acoustic by Prestige. So he’s got at least 3.
Yvette young is endorsed by Ibanez and Yamaha with Yamaha being acoustic/keys I believe
I dunno, say what you will about Slash but as a marketing brand he's been one to brand his name on experimental gear that might not have sold well had it not been for his endorsement to the consumer (Silver Jubilee, Alnico 2 humbuckers in modern sound, the Les Paul design in the 80s).

And Paul Gilbert has a signature pedal from TC Electronic and also JHS...
Dammit KDH, stop fukin' with me! lol j/k :P
Great job correcting this.
James hetfield and Kirk have both endorsed esp and Gibson for yonks. Kiss did Greco in Japan and Gibson in the US in the 70s. Nothing new.
Devin Townsend asked Framus if it would be okay and they were cool with it
I think if youre someone like Slash you'll have flexibility to endorse as many brands as you like...he's been pretty actively endorsing BC Ritch guitars for years while being a Gibson Ambassardor.

Jim root has a signature charvel while still endorsed and using his fender signatures.
That’s a bit different, because Charvel is owned by fender.
Thanks for the update. Peace
he's probably started watching "that pedal SHow" and loves the idea of wet dry and have to different amps for the sound ;-) ;-)
If i’m not getting wrong Mark Tremonti had his first PRS signature amp while he still endoser Mesa Boogie.
Average Absolute class move from KDH
So to be clear, he is still with Marshaltone. Awesome.😂
I feel better now.
One more example - Steve Vai with his signature Morley Bad Horsie Steve Vai signature optical wah and publicly showing that he has been using CryBaby wahs for past 5-8 years.
It's like Kirk Hammett having both Gibson and ESP signatures I guess.
Yeah, he's definitely not leaving Marshall. Good to see you own your mistakes. 👍👍 lots of guys work with different companies. Slash has a right to work with multiple companies if he wishes. He's earned that.
Might have been on purpose, for marketimg, to keep significant information open.
Maybe there just isn’t as much money available for endorsements and the brands don’t have as much leverage in insisting on exclusivity? It would make sense for artists to have as many non overlapping endorsements as possible. Dave musta one should have had one endorsement for round edge symmetrical Flying V guitars and another for pointy, a symmetrical ones 😆
I don’t think you were wrong tbh. Slash is a nice guy, the kind of guy that will give Marshall a plug just cos of his History with them etc.
Good update!
Perhaps you could edit the previous vid and make it available, there was a lot of good content about Marshall in there independent of the Slash news?
I think dual endorsements are more believable than “I ONLY PLAY GIBSON”
Is it something similar to Tosin Abasi while he also designed a guitar for EBMM but owns his own company?
everyone is wrong sometime. good on you for owning yours.
Correct me if I’m wrong but doesn’t Zakk wylde use marshalls live in stereo with wylde audio amps?
I honestly didn't even watch the other video, figured it was fake news. Bravo on this one, though! If only all journalists had your integrity, we'd be much better off in this world! 🍻
I don't think you got it wrong...EVERYBODY got it wrong! No biggie KDH. Thanks for the vids!
I guess you could say Marshall and Magnatone truly have a SLASH…endorsement!
(Paid for by the Friends of Fozzie Bear Committee. WakkaWakkaWakkerton, Vaudeville.)
You’d have thought that Slash & Magnatone would have been aware of the assumption’s people would make.
You have integrity. This is a good thing. You do a great job of maintaining transparency and honest reviews. Keep up the good work!
NAMM visit in January, KDH?
Yep
No worries KDH .
Yes............ Respect.
uh huh huh dammit bevis... 🎵r0ck0n 🎵
Slash is BIG enough to the consumer audience and company bean counters that he can afford to play away from home and it's fine. Simples.
36 subs forever, nicely said KDH.
This is why you have more credibility than Rob & Chappers.
F**k Rob Chapman and f**ck chapman guitars
It's very very weird. Especially if Magnatone are building him a Marshall clone.
Unlisting your previous video in an honorable move, respect!
Idk man, I’ll never just stick to one thing. I like many amps, many guitars, and many pedals. If I became a professional guitarist, I would try and endorse all my favorite guitars and amps. I think Slash just likes both.
