In this video Guitar World's gear editor Paul Riario demonstrates the features of the G&L Rampage Jerry Cantrell signature guitar.
i love how he is almost playing alice in chains songs every time but just changing the rythem a little or not releasing the pattern
copyright my dude
It’s a shame that they are discontinued. I emailed them and they said that they are releasing it again in late 2022 with some upgrades
Really? Nice.
@@bushcry1 yeah I'm hyped but it is a long time to wait tho
when exactly
@@lmcguigan9910 they just said late 2022
@@ryaneastwood6561 A regular rampage or another signature one?
it's refreshing in a way to see an artist who uses a guitar with inly one pickup instead of overly complicated multi pickup guitars with complex wiring etc.
A guy brought one of these to the Alice in Chains concert I went to last Saturday and he got the band to sign it. Lucky bastard
Did that happen to be in Los Angeles 2010?
Awesome fun guitar. I don't understand why these don't get made nowadays.
i've had this guitar for over a year, out of 3 prs's 1 lp and 1 strat this is my go to...period, flawless
This is one of my must have guitars. Unfortunately there isn't many G&L's in Australia
Backed, a USA one popped up on Gumtree about 18 months ago but it sold before I could get the cash together.
I believe Jack's Music in OZ are a G&L featured store and always have models in stock - find them on FB.
@@Moveplaylift Thanks for that mate !
I'll check em out ..
@@scottyd2262 did you find one?
@@ryaneastwood6561 Unfortunately l had to spend lots of $$ on cars that l have just after that comment. So l didn't get around to it... sigh... :-(
I'll try to do it when all of this smoke clears(so to speak) AIC are in my top 5 bands of all time. Do you have one ???
trying so hard not to play Alice in Chains riffs haha
Paul doesn't get enough credit.
Imagine being put on the spot with a signature guitar and being told, "Yeah, you can play anything BUT the actual riffs. Oh and try not to make people hate on you. GL."
Well he did play the intro to It Ain't Like That at the beginning of the video
Keesen Gripp almost
I miss this old videos allways chill to watch them!
This guitar is manufactured in Indonesia and it's around 600 bucks. There's a US version, but that things' nearly 2000 bucks, i think...
Thing is, it depends on the company and how they run things. For ex. Yamaha's high-end instrument factory that makes a lot of the signature models is in China, but the quality control there is superb and the workers there are all highly skilled craftsmen
Paul. this is the best review you've ever done.
Im getting this or the Squier J5 my two picks this far it will be my first guitar any recommendations? (I have played bass for about 6 years)
That is a great sounding guitar. No two ways about it. The cleans were really full and pretty too.
Holy shit...I absolutely love Jerry's original guitar, but I never actually knew what He played, really cool that they actually made an artist series out of this.
Also pretty funny how Riario is wearing a flannel button down in this review...
Michael J Fox playing guitar???
His tapping is incredible.
wow,sounds much better than i thought it would.sounds great.
I got this some years back, but the guy fitted a DeMarcio Super dist in it but I got the original Jerry C pup with the guitar. It is awesome to play, sounds wicked and looks killer. Only thing is that it is a paint to set up after changing the strings :-)
That guitar sounds fuckin killer clean and distortion tones. I love the tones from that custom wound pickup. Overall an awesome guitar. Hope lots of people get it.
Wow...what a nice, big sound! Incredible tone.
That’s the best rendition of man in the box I’ve heard
I keep coming back to here that clean tone
And I’m back
Ihave a very old Rampage. No Cantrell signature model. Great guitar. Mine had a Dimarzio Super Distortion pup. Wonderful balance. A dream to play.
Absolutely these play as good as they look, and they sound fantastic, like a guitar shaped sledgehammer!
Paul has tiny hands, me too. \o/ Thumbs Up for tiny handed guitar players!
Would've been incredibly helpful to see if you are running this through pedals, what amp, settings, etc.......
Try, "sounds like" Andertons tv.
They have a great AIC rig.
Ive got one......Ill tell you its a blast to play sounds amazing G&L is top notch I will never own another fender I dont care where its made you have to customize them just to get close to the quality of a stock G&L
God i love and will always play G&L. I'm a bass guy though. But G&L is as good as it gets.
This sounds really good I like it.
the necks on these guitars feel phenomenal!!
sounds great...what are you pumping it through?
Musicians Friend has these for $599, free UPS shipping included.
Played one at Guitar center yesterday, neck is thin, maybe not Ibanez thin. Felt like a Fender American strat with the C neck shaved thinner (which to me was always Fender's thinnest to begin with).
Hung out for about 3+ hours there and the winner on the day for playability was the Ibanez Prestige, chords felt like they were being played half by guitar half by me, you know what I mean. Looks like I'm saving up for a Prestige!
So does this guitar always sound distorted or does it sound clean too?
2:28 thats actually a pretty cool riff
It has a very interesting clean tone, I can’t quite describe it
Danny Aghdam It's like if a filtertron had sex with a noiseless single coil.
@tommW13 I guess it depends on songs. My memory is so long time ago so not that certain, but I believe he uses Crybaby wah pedal through Bogner amp, and sometimes Gibson LesPaul. Probably leave wah pedal closed some way to curve the tone like tone knob, and uses LesPaul for fatter or warmer sound. Bogner Fish preamp, which he uses, has got only 3 channel and he is not so effector-guy either, so it seems he makes various tone mostly by picking through that simple equipment.
Yea Schlagdog, I understand they wanted a replica, but for the money you don't get much. The Tributes are 600 bucks and the American mades over 1000. I just don't see why they don't at least offer the guitar with a neck pickup too. I don't think an extra pickup would change the sound that much.
Plus you made a good point - they tried to make an exact copy (which means they target the Chains fans) but failed to put the original pickup in it.
Good point. I just wouldn't want one because I am not a big fan of using the extra bright bridge pickup all the time. But come to think of it, I guess more pickups would change the tone.
Important to know what amp is using, I don't believe that with only that guitar and the JB, you can achieve that tone...
@Alexnchains16 This is the tribute model in the video. The USA Rampage comes with a Seymour Duncan JB humbucker and a Kahler 2320 brass tremelo
@tommW13 I believe this setup is saying that simply Jerry almost never uses other than rear pickup and volume knob throughout his play.
Having less circuit in guitar contributes to wider range, especially in high end. It helps to prevent the tone to get muddy, and to cut through clearer in band sound. And the more mass and weight the body has the sound become fatter and heavier.
Also maybe looking different, or by having only 1 pickup, makes cool sometimes, too.=)
yeah, iam confused also, is this the tribute model or the more expensive one?
Yea you can. It's available in ivory and black on the musicians friend website.
@anoshinyamo so if since he only has the rear pickup and wants a warm sound would he get the off hes amp settings instead of his guitar? thanks for the help
How wide is the nut? Heard it's pretty wide. How does it feel?
Not sure how wide the nutnis but it’s a pretty thin neck, very flat but not super thin like an ibanez if you know what i mean
Ya Pauls wardrobe and that set look go w the whole 90s MTV countdown grunge vibe. Pretty appropriate for the context of the review.
That single pickup really does make it seem much clearer
Alexi Laiho and Roope Latvala appear to make due with only the bridge. If your pickup is good enough, you don't need to. I.E. the emg 81.
Throw in a Duncan JB and you have Jerry's actual set up but the pickup in here does seem very nice
@danielhl22 I think your talking about the tribute version. The USA is 2000 new.
Still want one…
how is the tuning with the Kahler 4300 X-Trem tremolo ?
why do all guitar world vid's sound like the mic is about 200 yards away from the amp?
You can get this guitar also in black, right?
I NEED that sound - what is in the signal chain? amp? settings? please, have mercy and clue me (us) in!
because he is a beast at playing guitar !
How? Besides one pickup they are completely different
Just got one finally. Great guitar
does anyone know wat kinda amp he uses in these guitar reviews?
Is the the $600 on or the $1700 one?
kahler actually stays in tune better than a floyd in my opinion but has vaery different feel,alot of ppl dont like the feel of a kahler,its better to palm mute with and is a low profile,but most ppl prefer the more muscular resistance of a floyd but you can get a kahler to stiffen up
that guitar looks like a lot of fun, id buy one just to play around.
Just remember G&L actually made very good cheap guitars like this one of course the USA model is better but this version is amazing! and friend of mine who has a small Randall KirkHamet combo makes that guitar sound like a monster
Where can i buy this?
my friend had a strat so since he couldnt do a killswitch effect he put the middle pickup closer to the body, almost inside the guitar and so you couldn't hear it, so now even though he cant use his middle pickup he has a killswitch.
Does the Rampage have a big neck or is it Paul's hands are tiny?
+Fuzz Cous The Neck is a a thin C. Its very comfy :)
+commercialking Thanks.
I'm looking to pick up one of these next month.
small hands are about 6"?
I want this as my first guitar... Do they make it for left handers?
I actually got one of those as my first guitar. Not the USA one though. They do not make a lefty.
Jason Weirauch does the tribute one sound and feel good as the USA one?
I love my tribute. I put in a Motorcity Pickups Afwayu and it has the tone I was looking for. Honestly though, I don't even want to try a USA one because I am so happy with mine. I fear I will try a USA and like it so much I'll have to save up to buy one. I cant see how it could be worth that much more money to me. I am content to live in ignorance.
Not Very Good For Your FIRST Guitar.
If You Want A FIRST Guitar , Try A Fender Or Gibson.
Then Buy This lol
***** I'm a lefty so it doesn't matter. I really wanted it though..
which distortion is this?
Beautiful guitar.
Sounds really good love to have one
in the very begining, it just ounds very familiar... can anyone tell me what is ounds like caue its eating at me
Oskadella69" it's a signature guitar in other words it may not be for you, I'm sure you can build on as good or maybe your as talented as Cantrell so stop talking and get your own signature guitar out there!!!
@dorillo765 I have a bit bigger hands and been playing for 18 years but they play much, much better. I respect Paul and those who give extra effort for smaller hands. Thumbs Up!
The sound is more about the amp, what amps or simulators were you using
What amp here?????
ive never heard of a shadow killpot, it sounds cool explain
what pedals is he using???
lovely guitar but make sure this ones lives in Eb standard forever (if you like AIC), what a pain to adjust that locking trem
Because this is an exact copy of the guitar Cantrell played on just about everything in the day. His actual guitar he pieced together has a Duncan JB in it. I dont know why they didnt put a JB in i if they were going to make a copy.
can he not tell us which amp he is using?that is important.
Hey Paul, how much for some lessons??? Please!
@anoshinyamo true,he uses the guitar with the marylin monore pic alot for most of his songs,except for check my brain but theres probs more.He also uses allot of amp and pre amp combos like mesa and bogner ect,he uses alot of wah and the roto vibe and other stuff but as someone once said ''make it simple stupid.thanks for the help
the rampage is an 80's guitar. This is a reissue signature.
@JgHaverty In my view a khaler kinda sits between a fixed bridge and a floyd rose tremolo. Perhaps some guitar players like that kind of idea.
dude thats kickass where can I get one?
I cant beleieve how that guitar stays in tune after Dive bombing the hell out of it
holy shit nice tone too!! so want this bad!
this is probs a stupid question so bare with me.why has it got only 1 pick up?,would'nt metal/grunge need more then 1 pick up and only has a volume knobe.
ALICE IN CHAINS FTW
i think it was just a reg. B power chord but with an F# added on the bottom.
I just got the USA model used for 800 bucks what a steal!!
Jerry cantrell is the guy.
@Wolfosteology I'm pretty sure that was Creep by Stone Temple Pilots.
Is this a USA guitar
Pierce Wilkins Why should that matter?
Will&Grace?
Neck pickup and a Kahler Pro. DO IT. Plus, the cavity for the electronics seems unreasonably large for only a volume pot.
I have a parker fly deluxe and I find it has too many features and is uncomfortable. I like the idea of a stripped down guitar. I would prefer a maple fretboard though.
Thank you Paul for showing off this guitar even though you obviously hated playing grunge! haha
The color of the guitar is amazing, and someone getting a first guitar shouldn't go this high of a price and best not to start out with a special tremolo like this one.
Its got a nice snar sound!!!
Paul has the best job
Awesome tone..Damn
