Wow, thanks for the extremely kind words. Glad you like our workflow :) All we can say is that we think about it the same way ;) We are not a company btw, just two friends trying to contribute to the music scene we love. Thanks for the compliment anyway!
Leveler will always be one of my favorite guitar albums of all time. I've listened to that album front to back hundreds, if not thousands of times. It's still so sick.
This is by far the best looking, best edited, best style for a "rig rundown" with artists. Glad to see a company noticing that fans already know the artists so there is no need for wasted time intro'ing an interviewer. The only thing that was left out that is super hard to find with most bands that I'd love to know is what kind of in ear wireless monitor system do they use? Other than that, amazing job TuneUp and thank you!
this is one great channel! keep up the good work and don't hesitate about doing videos 15 to 20 mins long. youtube was really lacking a channel like this! (=
Exactly! That was our way to ensure the artists say what they want, when they want and how they want. And why would we want to ruin the shot by introducing an interviewer when there's so much nice gear to look at. Our site and videos is ALL about the artists. Glad you noticed that ;)
We'll do our best to get those in sometime soon. It's all very dependent of their tours. If any of them pass through Belgium any time soon we'll try to get involved.
Thanks guys! fucking love ABR and it's cool to know what they run at a live show! keep it up, don't worry about the time length! us gear nerds will stick it out haha! :P
I fully understand that! JB can talk for hours haha, great guys btw, one of my favorite bands! I'm looking forward to the 'August Burns Red - Revisited'-episode haha and good luck with interviewing other bands!
Hey Arthur, thanks for the tips! We considered doing all that but we chose not to so all our youtube-videos have the same theme going on. We know we might miss out on some views by doing that tho.
Hey Mike. There's a few reasons why we didn't get to interview Dustin. Main reason is we didn't have any time left. We were given about 5min to do the interview. But JB and Brent were just so awesome and kept talking even though we had to get off the stage. We're sorry we didn't get to talk to Dustin but at least we have an excuse to re-scheduel a second interview and do a "August Burns Red - Revisited"-episode in the future :)
Too bad you guys didn't got to chat with Dustin, cause I really want to know what his gear is and what amps he uses and stuff like that. Maybe something for a second ABR episode! Are you guys gonna do something like this with Parkway Drive?

+Brandon Hayes Hi Brandon, thanks for watching our videos! It's not a timer but a midi controller. It's hard to explain what it does but essentially you connect all your pedals to the midi controller (sometimes even amps). Then you can create a preset on the midi controller in which you specify which pedals you want to use for a certain tone. So for instance your "Lead tone" might need an EQ, an overdrive pedal and a compressor. When you press this button on the midi controller it will switch on your EQ pedal, your overdrive pedal and your compressor all at once. Maybe your "Clean tone" has a chorus, a reverb and a delay. So you set this preset as well on the midi controller. When you're playing your "Lead tone" you can press 1 button on the midi controller to switch to your "Clean tone" without have to tapdance all around your pedalboard. So the reason all those pedals are tucked away in that box is because he's controlling them with the midi controller. I don't know if this made any sense, but be sure to check out some video's online cause it's really cool technology.
Sorry to disappoint Drew. We started this project just for guitars and basses but perhaps we can expand our crew in the future and also feature drums and other instruments. For now we'll probably stick with this format.

here's some:: Avenged Sevenfold. Bullet For My Valentine. Born Of Osiris. Bring Me The Horizon. Suicide Silence. Job For A Cowboy. Upon A Burning Body. Periphery. Rise To Remain. Billy Talent. Trivium. Black Veil Brides. The Word Alive. Parkway Drive. tell u what, their guitar workpiece is amazing imo!!
I think you would get alot more views if the video was called 'abr gear tour' or something, and maybe have a picture of guitars as something for the thumbnail. Awesome vid though.
+neerajvaidya Actually, a couple of weeks back we met up with JB again and this time around he was playing and AxeFX. It all depends on the kind of tour and whether there's budget to ship all the gear or not. When we did this interview they headlined the tour, so they were able to ship in their own gear.

JB is amazing because he is so down to earth and i feel like he has a shit-ton of common sense/charisma
I love rig tours and my favorite band just did one!! Thanks for doing this! JR and Brent are a couple of my heros'.
Leveler will always be one of my favorite guitar albums of all time. I've listened to that album front to back hundreds, if not thousands of times. It's still so sick.
I agree this is fantastic. Probably the best overview of a rig I've seen.

I f-ing love JB.
My god, I have been waiting for this video for years
Take note people. August Burns Red sounds AMAZING live.
I also like that the Band-Members do the talking and holding the mic. Seems more personal then when some interviewer is asking the questions
This... is awesome!
Thanks for doing this tune up! I like where you guys are going with this channel. :D
JB is such a class act
this is one great channel! keep up the good work and don't hesitate about doing videos 15 to 20 mins long. youtube was really lacking a channel like this! (=
JB what a boss wearing sandals during a concert!
The others videos were very interesting but this one is breathtaking !
I will definitely subscribe! Can't wait to see more
Exactly! That was our way to ensure the artists say what they want, when they want and how they want. And why would we want to ruin the shot by introducing an interviewer when there's so much nice gear to look at. Our site and videos is ALL about the artists. Glad you noticed that ;)
So apart of the amp, the JB pedal distortion is just an Ibanez ts9 tube screamer?
What a great channel! Definitely subscribed. Thanks a ton guys.
We'll do our best to get those in sometime soon. It's all very dependent of their tours. If any of them pass through Belgium any time soon we'll try to get involved.
Thanks guys! fucking love ABR and it's cool to know what they run at a live show! keep it up, don't worry about the time length! us gear nerds will stick it out haha! :P
awesome stuff keep it up.
This is great! Beats trying to find half assed answers on Google by a mile! You've gained my sub!
Always wanted to know what JB and Brent use. Probably could afford Brent's gear but not JB's! Thanks Tuneup!
Proud brother!
sweet video, thanks!
I fully understand that! JB can talk for hours haha, great guys btw, one of my favorite bands! I'm looking forward to the 'August Burns Red - Revisited'-episode haha and good luck with interviewing other bands!
You earned my subscription. Very good Video. Thank you!
I have a 6505+ as well there very nice
think you guys will get to interview Parkway drive sometime soon?
Thanks Mark. Glad you like our work. We post a new episode every 2 weeks. Hope to see you around!
what do you mean by wireless monitor? like how they run their guitar wireless? Or the monitors on stage so they can hear everyone else?
What was that first song played? o_o I like it.
Only a few grand for the effects, now where are those job ads. Hahaha can't wait to see them.
Just in case you didn't already know, ABR is endorsed by Ultimate Ears.
Hey Arthur, thanks for the tips! We considered doing all that but we chose not to so all our youtube-videos have the same theme going on. We know we might miss out on some views by doing that tho.
Interview Sleeping WIth Sirens gear! They have an amazing sound!

thanks for this awesome and informative video! Do they use the same gear in the studio?
Too bad you guys didn't got to chat with Dustin, cause I really want to know what his gear is and what amps he uses and stuff like that. Maybe something for a second ABR episode! Are you guys gonna do something like this with Parkway Drive?
@13:19 true sign of a pro! I really need to get into that habbit myself!
Parkway Drive?! Please could you guys do them?
This is really cool.... keep it up. ABR rules :)
what's the song around 2:47 ?
Empire
I would love to see Hang the Bastards,Trash Talks,Code Oranges Kids or Landscapes gear next
I believe that they use Logitech UE in-ears. JB's have the Phillies "P" on them.
JB, you're hilarious...."I just put my favorite baseball team on there for fun"
awesome

so that box that has your pedals in it puts them on a timer so you don't have to press anything during a song? or no idk
+Brandon Hayes Hi Brandon, thanks for watching our videos! It's not a timer but a midi controller.

+Tune Up perfect explanation
Forget the other suggestions. You must do ERRA and Elitist!
Didn't the fall of Troy break up :o
Yeah you will! I subbed immediately! :D
JB's outfit tho fressh
It makes your sound go "woom woom".
5:40
Jb. Lol.
Sorry to disappoint Drew. We started this project just for guitars and basses but perhaps we can expand our crew in the future and also feature drums and other instruments. For now we'll probably stick with this format.
could you guys DO them :P me and my humour
Empire !!!
i think^^
New line of Ibanez guitars have the Gibraltar bridge.
Please INTERVIEW PARKWAY DRIVE! :) They don't have an uberproaudio...
What's the name of the song starting at 03:52?
+Jan P It's called 'Meddler' and it's from their 2009 release 'Constellations'.
Also, we need one of Killswitch Engage and The Devil Wears Prada.

Woah. JB's not wearing his signature flip flops in this video.
I think you would get alot more views if the video was called 'abr gear tour' or something, and maybe have a picture of guitars as something for the thumbnail. Awesome vid though.
Axe fx!!!!!!!!
They use Ultimate Ears :3
C H I L E
why not just get an axe fx?
Matt Magee Different strokes for different folks. the same argument could be "how come JB doesn't use *insert whatever highgain amp here* instead?"
+Matt Magee I bet you feel stupid for having asked this question.
It was a joke lawl
Hahaha
