- PG's Rebecca Dirks is on location in Milwaukee, Wisconsin where she catches up with Journey's Neal Schon. In this segment, Schon discusses his upcoming PRS signature guitars, how he uses his Axe-FX Ultra, and answers your Facebook questions.
From now on, I don't ever want to see a rig rundown done by anyone but Rebecca!
it's now 2020 and I still feel the same way! She really knows her stuff
I am really impressed with Rebecca Dirks, I was Neal's tech in the 90's and she asked all the questions that I would have asked Adam and Neal, she is obviously a real player and gear aficionado, well done.
neal is absolutely one of the very best players in rock, very vocal melodic style with speed when needed
i'm a gearhead (that's why i love watching these vids) and rebecca constantly blows me away. she def knows her stuff! she asks questions that i would be too geeked out to even think of! i'm dirksfan!
Mr Schon is an ICON..glad to see him still out playing the also iconic Journey stuff...even though Mr Perry has no desire to be a part of it, the new guy does pretty damned good
Great Rundown! Neal Schon is a class act!
Neal is the Master. One of my favorite. The song Stone In Love has some of the best guitar work ever. It really showcases Neal's talent.
A+ interview!!! Thanks to Neal Schon for taking the time to talk to Rebecca!
I think Neal is spot on about in ear monitors.
Great job Rebecca! Excellent questions and interesting dialog. You are a pro..
Neal is a legend. His sound is fantastic.
Good interview....always been a fan of Neal's playing.
Neal is probably one of my first guitar heroes. There was Hendrix and Page... then Schon.
I saw him at a tiny gig (in Hayward, CA with Yesterday and Today.. Y&T) when I was around 17.
He had a huge fro, and was playing through a cab with moons and stars painted on the front. To me.. that was "Journey" and always will be.
Glad that he's had the continued success, and I'd like to hear some of his recent stuff.
Wow, that tech is more Diva than the Artist itself. Neal is so down to earth. Rebeca beautiful and smart as always.
nice job Neal! i enjoyed this video a lot and props to Mr Adam Day to help show some more gear
This is s nice run down Rebecca. To be a guitar tech for Neal is probably the most demanding gig n the field as Neal is a tone genius and that rig is complicated.
Im a big fan Rebecca! Big thanks to you!
Great questions, and great interview. I think some people bash Rebecca Dirks because she's cute, but I think she gets good interviews out of people. I thought Neal's take on in-ear monitors was pretty interesting.
Richard MacLemale You have a long time fan here form back in 2003 macidol.com and a new fan in Bobbie Today who loves your Florida Songs album.
well! she missed,when she said! you dont want to learn a new way to play! NEAL said! NO, i can learn everything... so...she dont understand-guitar,teckhnique,and the life as an musician. otherwise she did a god job!
22 mins on one guitar. wow i'm super awake now thanx.
Very Awesome, Neal is one of the all time great guitar players in my book. Super PRS line of guitars for you Neal good job.
Rebecca did great interviews!
rebecca knows her stuff....the tech was workin up a sweat with answers.
I shake my head in disbelief each time I hear this man play :O
Great job Rebecca. On top of it with the questions. Too bad mic peaked out like crazy when he started playing.
When AC/DC comes to the U.S. this summer, you MUST do a Rig Rundown of Angus Young!!!
Nice work Rebecca. It's great to hear about Neal's rig and not his "new" girlfriend for a change.
Neal's black sig gtr looks like a design that was created using aspects from several iconic guitars, the Les paul of course, i also see a bit of Gibson's L5-s, & Es - 335.
The L5-s was Gibsons solid body version of their famous L-5 arch-top. several rock & rollers experimented with it, including Keith Richards, Carlos Santana, & Bad Co's Mick Ralphs..
Neal's PRS models are actually based off of the PRS JA-15 model that came out in 2010/2011.
I've heard of old people covering their furniture in plastic but this is some next level shit.
I play a Santana SE, and Neal's correct. The SE guitars play and sound awesome.
I have severe tints as well and I play with full blown industrial hearing protection and turn up the amp until it sounds fairly normal.
Never thought so much could be said about a guitar..
THanks for the heads up on the PRS bling -bling botique, you sound convincing , I don't wanna chase another dead rabbit egg
But then again, EMGs and Blackouts are used by many companies when they include active pups on their guitars. PRS don't make an active pickup alternative to those so there's no choice but to use those.
Neal knew 9 years ago what just was fixed for Arnel’s in ear monitor.
Yeah. In every IV I've seen NS do, he appears very user-friendly and accommodating. He seems to genuinely like his fans. Some don't, of course.
The Neck Pickup is "DiMarzio FAST TRACK 2" , I think.
When I die I want to come back as Neil Schon. Rock on Neil.
Undoubtedly a very talented Heavy Metal showman !!
his guitar tech really techs for everybody
he's so mellow
If anybody wants an original schon guitar from the 80's with the Jackson style headstock have a chat to the guys at Ed Roman in Vegas, he has a few left even half built when the production stopped.
0 to 22:18, all about the guitar. 22:18, rig rundown starts.
I really wish we could get a Matt Bellamy rig rundown! :)
The rig rundown starts here: 24:53
All I need to sound like schon is the m13 by line6. Distortion, eq, chorus and some echos. Thats the stuff ya need ;)
He had Kahlers and Floyds in LPs before Lifeson.
To me, PRS guitars are like a red convertible BMW in the 80's. It's "cool" to have one even when there are far better products out there you can own for far less money.
Neal Schon looks like that old actor... Victor Mature....
Rebecca has been known to jam with Alexi Laiho and Children of Bodom..
Neal is legendary.
"This is my new signature guitar. I have a Seymour Duncan custom custom pickup in this. I'm really used to these. I have the sustainer in this one. I use it a lot live" BUT the production model of my signature guitar will not have these features...to get what I use you can send yours out Gary Brower, the guy who works on mine..."
Very surprised to hear neal is now using a duncan Custom-custom pu.
These are a good bit hotter than the 57 classic,PAF's and burstbuckers he has used for the past years.
more bass rig rundowns please ;)
I think Rebecca is soooo cute! And apparently, so does Neal!
This lady knows about guitars well.. Cool
Why aren't you using the AxeFx2's the improvement's in 9.02 are just outrageous . You were great at Experience PRS it was loud too very Cool!
Would like to see Rebecca play some guitar.
I CALL NIEL THE PROFESSOR CAUSE HE RARELY EVER MAKE A MISTAKE AND EVEN IF HE DROPS A PICK OR HANDS IT TO A FAN HE JUST KEEPS PLAYING WITH 1 HAND LIKE ITS NOTHING AND HE'S SO CLEAN WITH HIS TECHNIQUE
Does anyone know what Neal played on Abraxas Pool?
Neal Schon looks and sounds so much like Paul Stanley... It's scary...
he also looks like the actor Victor Mature
Would be great to see Neil Young on this, probably never happen though. Have an old VHS from years ago, Ebay, think it is called Down on the Farm. To get out of doing promo tours of talk shows for Ragged Glory he did a sort of similar thing, copies given to record company ppl...of course he threw in jabs at them as well in his commentary...he did mention his amp went to 12, and they zoomed in on it, he repeasted that and said, "got that, Nigel?"...ha
I watched the Van Halen Rocumentary and the roadie for VH back in the day, accused Neal of messing up Eddies amps, because Neal was envious of Eddie. Neal was unable to play like Eddie. Great story it reminds me of another great mediocrity, Saliaria. HAHA.
Neal! Have your sound guy put a couple of mics up front pointed at the audience and mix a little into your monitor mix.
He's playing PRS now, but he'll be back to Gibson soon.
RockstarVideoMaker didn't happen
not gonna happen now Gibson is done for
@@KeeperOfPoops They are? When? How?
REBECCA 😍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Need to have one more concert with Steve Perry
Pwese do a Johnny Marr rig rundown if possible : 3
Awesome
have a word with your sound team mate, they might be willing to set up a few audience mics to feed your in ears at a low volume.
off topic of the vid but i instantly recognize your user name from wings. you know all the episodes are on youtube right? teddyfalconer is the channel name
You're probably correct...however, then you cannot build a "signature" guitar unless it is truly a guitar nailed down right to the artists exact specs of what they really use. IMHO.
The bridge pickup poles are not lining up with the strings and my OCD is really kicking it.
Does somebody know what is the milimiter of the guitar pick that Neal use?
As a huge Neal Schon fan, I might just be stealing a lot of ideas from this video.. :D
I would agree.....I'm not one to judge men's looks, but he was better looking before. Now, especially with certain facial contortions, he looks almost abnormal. I feel bad saying that because he is so very talented and is one of my guitar influences.
Neal is an EXCELLENT Player.. Rebecca Rocks, PG you need her back... Neal's guitar tech is kinda stale... lol
"Neal is dead my friend; you can call me...JOKER!"
Can someone let me know were I can see her with something in her hands?
Was she in the movie Funny People with Adam Sandler and Seth Rogen.
Why does she Always ask ALL the RIGHT questions???
"Wanna know how I got these scars?! er... Guitars?"- Neal
l love neal
I don't think PRS uses anyone else's electronics just as a matter of policy.
thank you!
Rockstar all the way
Probably some kind of red tape business decision involved. PRS may not want the Fernandes/Dimarzio products built in to their own guitar, when and if it gets mass produced.
What Dimarzio neck pickup is he using?
Does anyone know someone who has put PRS pick-ups into a guitar? They always seem real cheap sounding
Great string advice lol ! Because there is no other rock band... Ever
I used to sit in a room and move lines around myself.
Is rush comin soon? I saw pics on the gallery??
Soul-less is right! Plus, if you've ever gone to Ed Roman's website, and read his "Rants and Raves" section, he is correct in that A) They should have ALWAYS come with a bound neck/headstock for the money (too much) Paul charges, and B) The neck heel grew over the years to make it cheaper to manufacture, but making the player work harder to reach the upper frets. Is this really the kind of over-priced, over-rated non-sense I'd waste my hard-earned money on. No fucking way. Peace man. -Dave
I don't think Neal's in touch with the common fan, who can afford $9K? I've been a fan of his since seeing him with Santana. Wish he'd go back to just a LP or a Strat and a Twin played full up, that was when he had the best tones... All these sustainers and extra fluff take away from his playing....
Totally. I thought that this was an interview with Michael Jackson for a minute
?????
Rebbeca's the best! Eff the rest!
I've always loved Neal's playing but when did he start looking like Lady Elaine??
I just went to their show and Neal's guitar sounded really bad, not his playing but the FOH had this sandy grating sound it was almost painful. It got better towards the end and only when he used the strat. This is the first time I went to a concert knowing that the amp is an Axe-FX and I really can't say I dig the Axe. I've been to metal shows where the guitar sound was tolerable.
I think it depends on how they use Axe. Steve Vai gets decent sound out of Axe-Fx. Could be because he use real amp and axe fx for effects only
what's with the hazy camera work?
Neal is starting to look more like Paul Stanley.
I agree with Mr Adrian Dunn...I wouldn't mind seeing Beckys gear ran down..
no problem ;p
You need to get your shit together. Some of Steve's sig guitars have Alder, others have Basswood bodies. The Jem 7V comes with an Alder body.
Also, there are varieties of basswood...Canadian and South east asian Basswood has a lot in common with Mahogany but is a little flatter in response so it takes well to bright pickups and locking bridges. Basswood wasnt used because it is cheap, it was used because in a high gain setting with Floyds basswood just works.
