Thank you so much I get alot of gear and ideas from you. Being a tone chaser myself. Your tone videos can you do pantera the great southern trendkill? Specifically floods solo. My favorite dime tone ever. Love man thanks for the awesome sauce.
I second this. A mean fivestring, in mean colors, with Fishman Fluence Bass pickups and a Darkglass preamp, please...? Ah, for being so fucking creative, I'll take two of them as salary.
Appreciate ya Ola . You and Kieth are my favorites . Oh and Rebea and Pete too. Lol love all you guys man. I'm listening to youtube musicians more than any mainstream music. Really appreciate the sharing .
Hi Ola! When do you think a beginner guitarist should upgrade to an more expensive guitar and wich problems you could avoid when buying it? Cheers from Austria!
Hay Ola I have been absolutely loving the new soilwork and thy art is murder albums. Have you heard these yet? Australia thanks you for you videos btw.
hi ola, i'm in a situation where i may be in 2 different metal bands and was wondering how you sort writing material and songs between bands, since you are in the haunted and feared. what makes a song/riff a haunted song/riff and vice versa. thanks heaps!
Hey Ola, congrats on FAQ #100! Nice of you to give us a glimpse into your family. How do they (apart from your wife, of course) view your youtube, music and Solar guitars efforts? I mean, I had my share of "you should've grown by now", but from what we've seen, they're supre cool with it. Keep up the awesome work and here's to another 100+ FAQs!
So many awesome things have happened since I first discovered your channel with your JVM demo back in 2010. Congrats Ola, you deserve all your successes!
Hi Ola, would you please try the MXR Dime Distortion? The RUclips comment section on other videos of it is split into half: one half says it’s shit and the other half likes it. I know you will make it sound great. Greetings from Czech republic 🤘
Hey, Ola. Have you ever considered doing a video where you compare the clean DI signals from different interfaces? A good amped/ processed sound always starts with a clear, articulate DI. Cheers from the US!
Ola Englund! Best solo albumist and best reviewerer and comparerer of gear! I think doing a review of the Nutube Tubescreamer and comparison with original Tubescreamer with the 5150 would be a super relevant video! As for most of us, I don't care to see it reviewed by someone with a Telecaster and a blues type sound. I wanna know how it boosts a 5150 or similar amp, and hear the tone a true metal tone master can produce! Any chance for this in the future? Thanks, Brian the commenterer.
Hola Ola, congrats on FAQ 100! You should definitely get a P.O. box so you can make the Ola unboxing shit a permanent series. Something oddly satisfying about watching you unbox stuff. Okay love u bye
Love you my dude! I remember back in the day with the amp demos. always were my go to youtube channel back in the day and still are, really happy to see you have the success you achieved and i know it will only grow! cheers!
Congrats to episode 100! Question for 101: Do you listen to Marty Friedman much outside of his Megadeth work? Wall of Sound has some pretty good chuggin riffs.
Congrats on the 100th FAQ! Are you excited about the new upcoming Tool album? What's your opinion on them releasing all of their old material on electronic platforms like Spotify? Cheers from Bergen, NO.
Cheers from Montréal Ola, big fan here, love your channel and the content. Always happy when you publish a new video. I have been watching your past FAQs and in the first few, i noticed you had a Fishman triple play installed on one of your guitars. Can you tells us more about that? Did you use it on your solo album? Any demo you wanna share with us? I’m asking because i have been considering buying one for a while. Thank you and keep up the good work. Cheers!
Yyyyyeeeeah!!! Very happy to see your success and i have to say that again...im proud of subscribing and getting to know such an example to follow as business, music and family man i want to become some day, keep it cool, keep it metal and keep it chugging Ola 🤘🏽🔥🙌🏽
Ola Englund...i think your my long lost Brother...Lol...im a small town Boy from Mt Airy..NC. AKA (MAYBERRY)...my name is Eric Akers..my nickname is also ( Mayberry)....i grew up beside Andy Griffith...from Andy Griffith show and Matlock...but just wanted to let you know you and Dimebag are truely my favorite guitarist of all time......
Congratulations and Thanks for your never ending Awesome FAQ videos. So i live in Louisiana ( i am the 64 yr old guy you inspired from FAQ 98 )and i want to purchase a new Solar guitar. I had some trouble finding where in the U.S. to buy from or from Overseas. Love your videos..always fun to watch...But its the Burps that seal the deal..lol I Also bought the CFH plug in pretty much based on your video on it. It has elevated my playing and practice ....Peace and Respect as always.
Question for 101 Congratulations on the 100 Ola and nice grass btw. My question is do you think if dimebag was still alive he would have a RUclips channel since he loved film and making so many videos?? Thanks for the laughs!
Whats up Ola, Congrats on FAQ 100 and 101 now! What are your thoughts and opinions on sub brand/ budget range guitars? Do you think the price suits the quality or they exceed the parent company's quality sometimes? In the future do you feel Solar guitars would venture into that direction if you felt this was needed, a Solar Eclipse range for instance (cheesy name, I know)? I think the price fits the quality of Solar from what I've seen but I have yet to find and play one, we need more shops stocking them in England dude! Cheers and hope the thumb heals up quicker.
Congratulations. Do you think Ibanez has the same qualtiy low end guitars today as in the 90's. I think they look better but feel worse for the same price. Like an RG550?
Awesome FAQ BrOla !!! I have a question for your next FAQ, did you listen to an amazing Swedish band called Orbit Culture ? If you didn't I think you would like it, they sound like Metallica, Meshuggah and Gojira had a baby and the singer sounds just like Mikeal from Opeth when he growls and exactly like James Hetfield when he sings the clean parts :D
The best part of the whole video was you and your family :D Damn i lived in Norway for 6 years and on day one i had to taste surströmming. How did you manage to live through that, in sweden... Mission impossible :D
Ola, FAQ100 was epic! Nice touch traveling around and tasting something so disgusting with your family. Hint: Try a root beer float! (scoop or two of vanilla ice cream in the same cup as the root beer and eat with a spoon). Here's to your next 100! Cheers!
0:09 Hej Ola, congratulations on reaching FAQ 100. Hopefully the following will not become an FAQ: What on earth possessed you to add a laugh track? Laugh tracks suck and are not necessary.
The next guitar I'd like to buy is Solar but I made a little mistake already buying a Chapman without trying it two years ago, it's a bit difficult for me to do it again. I'm sure you're style of playing and specifications are more suited to me but still, it's a bit of a downer. Another thing is that I don't really like the design of the majority of the still available guitars. There is one though that I would love to posess and it's the polar burst one (6 or 7, I still don't know). The only option for it comes with the evertune bridge. I would love to get one, I'm sure they are incredible but in my case, a little guitar player that does very few stages, an evertune is kind of a luxury. Furthermore, there are plenty of pro guitar players that don't use it so, yeah... I'd like to have the option to put another kind of bridge on this stellar beauty that is the polar burst. It would reduce the price I imagine, putting it more in an affordable range. If I had only one guitar and gear left to buy I could pay the actual price but it's not the case for me and many folks out there, so...
For the next FAQ: I expected a lot more of FAQ100. "Fireworks" etc, something awesome, something different, something special but no... we got surströmming, c'mon dude. Have you even tryed to make FAQ100 special?
Hey Ola! FUCKING SLAYER! I love your channel and your Solar Guitars have some of the best guitar designs I’ve seen! I wanted to know about your thoughts on Testament. They’re my favourite band and I think you should check em out! For you I would recommend The Gathering album, it’s one of my favourites and one of the heaviest of their albums
Question for FAQ 101 : Hey Ola, do you have any plans to cooperate with local guitar stores in Europe to sell Solar Guitars ? I have one in Paris "Metal Guitar" and the manager of the shop really want to sell your amazing guitars. And the secret is that i want to try one before buy it :)
Congrats on FAQ 100, and thank you for always excellent and entertaining videos all the time. By the way, what the F is going on in the background, man?
Hi Ola hope the best for the future and thanks for the amazing content You should try and videoshoot the Ehx tattoo It's a freaking beast!!! It gives a very ''sassy vibe'' but it is hella sexy
Welcome guys and thank you!
Congrats mang! I also realized you have very long legs in this video.
You're the bomb, dude.
Love Your Sense of Humour!!!! 😂😂😂😂😝
Congrats Ola! You deserve it! Keep doing what u do, we love it!
Thank you so much I get alot of gear and ideas from you. Being a tone chaser myself. Your tone videos can you do pantera the great southern trendkill? Specifically floods solo. My favorite dime tone ever. Love man thanks for the awesome sauce.
Ola, would you let Kmac2021 edit one of your videos?
Second this
3rd, 4th and 5th.
Sikth (pun intended) this!
Pls pls pls pls pls let this happen. The world would implode and turn into a black sun
That would be amazing
You're my favorite RUclips guy, too. Big love!
Fanfiction will write itself after this.
This plastered a smile on my face even bigger than when he said you were his favorite.
now kiss
so wholesome
I'm invoking rule 32.
New segment? Ola Hates Rootbeer. Just keep trying different brands of rootbeer.
Eating Surströmming with Jimmy Page and Russel Crowe
Lmao I saw it too
My thoughts exactly xD
Hands down, I would totally watch you do "Ola Shows You Sweden." Awesome FAQ and congratulations on 100 and all your success!
Hell yeah!
Yes indeed. Ola shows us Sweden. I would watch this. I enjoyed Ola on vacation in Norway as well.
Likes Surstromming, hates root beer. Clearly this man has lost his marbles.
Question for Faq101: do u like Slam Metal? What do u think of the genre? Keep being awesome!
Thanks Ola! I need to work on more music for sure!!
your vids are extreeeeemly helpful for anyone who wants to improve his or her solo playing. thanks a lot.
Howdy Ola, whatever happened to Just The Tip? I miss that series.
Maybe just the tip wasn't quite enough
Is your brother Russel Crowe?
Like a mix of him and Rob Chapman
Im legit shocked how strong your solo album is. I knew you were a good metal player but this has some prog rock gems in it. Very talented Ola.
Question for FAQ 101: Solar Bass. Will it happen? Maybe you could name it Polar Bass (as in buddy, not ice) and make it super awesome. K thanks bye.
I second this. A mean fivestring, in mean colors, with Fishman Fluence Bass pickups and a Darkglass preamp, please...?
Ah, for being so fucking creative, I'll take two of them as salary.
That Zelda gift was amazing!
The miku continuing on in the background is amazing 😂
WORST CHANNEL EVER yes please
WORST CHANNEL EVER well that was a rollercoaster of emotions 😢
Damn, it takes a shitty person to get a man's hopes up like that, guess you could say he has the worst channel ever
Don't Stop, Ola, KEEP FUCKING CRUSHING IT, DUDE!!!!!!!!!
\m/\m/
Appreciate ya Ola . You and Kieth are my favorites . Oh and Rebea and Pete too. Lol love all you guys man. I'm listening to youtube musicians more than any mainstream music. Really appreciate the sharing .
Hi Ola!
When do you think a beginner guitarist should upgrade to an more expensive guitar and wich problems you could avoid when buying it?
Cheers from Austria!
Hay Ola I have been absolutely loving the new soilwork and thy art is murder albums. Have you heard these yet? Australia thanks you for you videos btw.
Hands down the best FAQ yet.
SURSTRÖMMING: Really the apex on this channel. Thanks, Ola! Cheers from Brasil.
hi ola, i'm in a situation where i may be in 2 different metal bands and was wondering how you sort writing material and songs between bands, since you are in the haunted and feared. what makes a song/riff a haunted song/riff and vice versa.
thanks heaps!
Just play a different tuning for each band, should give your sound a unique twist for each.
Agree about Rick. Love listening to him play.
Waiting for another hundred :-) Have a nice Sunday.
Hey Ola, congrats on FAQ #100! Nice of you to give us a glimpse into your family. How do they (apart from your wife, of course) view your youtube, music and Solar guitars efforts? I mean, I had my share of "you should've grown by now", but from what we've seen, they're supre cool with it. Keep up the awesome work and here's to another 100+ FAQs!
12:35 can confirm, you HAVE to do that if you see a Slayer T-Shirt
Every time. I've even been in my uniform delivering mail and done it haha. It has to happen.
Thanks Ola! Enjoy your observations!
We love you Ola, The guitar shredderer!!!
So many awesome things have happened since I first discovered your channel with your JVM demo back in 2010.
Congrats Ola, you deserve all your successes!
I think I speak for everyone when I say we want more of Ola's handsome brother in videos.
YOU'RE THE BEST, OLA!
Happy 100 FAQ Ola.... I hope you can demo a Zoom product soon... Hehehe... Cheers...
Hi Ola, would you please try the MXR Dime Distortion? The RUclips comment section on other videos of it is split into half: one half says it’s shit and the other half likes it. I know you will make it sound great.
Greetings from Czech republic 🤘
Ola is truly the Mr. Rogers of metal.
isnt that the mastersword from zelda? but in the wrong color?
Congratulations!! Your show is great, but would be that much better with a "will it hug" episode or two.
Hey, Ola. Have you ever considered doing a video where you compare the clean DI signals from different interfaces? A good amped/ processed sound always starts with a clear, articulate DI. Cheers from the US!
Haha!! That Miku solo just killed me. The humour in this channel is the best.
thank you for being you. you sweeet man you
Finally FAQ100 BEEN WAITING FOR THIS MOMENT! Grats Ola!
Yes. Answers would have been my answer if somebody asked me
Congratulations Ola!!! Keep up the awesome work!!!
Ola Englund! Best solo albumist and best reviewerer and comparerer of gear! I think doing a review of the Nutube Tubescreamer and comparison with original Tubescreamer with the 5150 would be a super relevant video! As for most of us, I don't care to see it reviewed by someone with a Telecaster and a blues type sound. I wanna know how it boosts a 5150 or similar amp, and hear the tone a true metal tone master can produce! Any chance for this in the future?
Thanks,
Brian the commenterer.
Root beer tastes like fizzy Benylin.
It's not often that Alan Partridge is right, but he's dead on in that.
Congrats on FAQ 100!
Hola Ola, congrats on FAQ 100! You should definitely get a P.O. box so you can make the Ola unboxing shit a permanent series. Something oddly satisfying about watching you unbox stuff. Okay love u bye
Love you my dude! I remember back in the day with the amp demos. always were my go to youtube channel back in the day and still are, really happy to see you have the success you achieved and i know it will only grow! cheers!

Congrats on 100 brother!!!
Another great video, congrats on 100!
isn't that the sword of zelda? I think you didn't notice it.
Congrats on faq 100!
It always gets me when something is played on a Miku pedal.
Congrats to episode 100! Question for 101: Do you listen to Marty Friedman much outside of his Megadeth work? Wall of Sound has some pretty good chuggin riffs.
Seconded! Marty's solo work is insane and far more interesting than his Megadeth days IMO.
Congrats on the 100th FAQ! Are you excited about the new upcoming Tool album? What's your opinion on them releasing all of their old material on electronic platforms like Spotify? Cheers from Bergen, NO.
Why?
Becuase it's the best series on this goddamn platform, that's why!
Cheers from Montréal Ola, big fan here, love your channel and the content. Always happy when you publish a new video.

Hey Ola, I would be curious to hear your thoughts on the Swedish grindcore band Nasum. Happy 100!
terminaldeity I'm not Ola, but I wanted to let you know I fucking love Nasum
Thank you Ola!! \m/
I love how you are environmentally friendly 😂🤣😍💕
Question for 101 Congratulations on the 100 Ola and nice grass btw. My question is do you think if dimebag was still alive he would have a RUclips channel since he loved film and making so many videos?? Thanks for the laughs!
last time i was this early, my parents still loved me. thanks
FAQ 101- Grind vs 33 vs Tubescreamer to boost a duel rec.
Been watching you forever thanks for everything
I remember that box like Palace when I visited Stockholm haha
Not a geustion, just wanted to say that I'm on vacation in Sweden and I also went to borgholm brinner yesterday. And damn I love this country
How do you feel about Buckethead? Also you're a big inspiration to me and my friend (my friends nickname is chug) keep making videos dude I love them
thats my name
awesome for actually re-amping one of your songs with the Miku pedal \m/
you had me at surströmming
Carcass often does two different rhythm tracks panned left and right.
congrats!! that sword is kickass!!
Whats up Ola, Congrats on FAQ 100 and 101 now!
What are your thoughts and opinions on sub brand/ budget range guitars? Do you think the price suits the quality or they exceed the parent company's quality sometimes?

Do you think Ibanez has the same qualtiy low end guitars today as in the 90's. I think they look better but feel worse for the same price. Like an RG550?
Love the editing on this Ola.
Congratz, you're a big inspiration for me.
Awesome FAQ BrOla !!! I have a question for your next FAQ, did you listen to an amazing Swedish band called Orbit Culture ?

The best part of the whole video was you and your family :D Damn i lived in Norway for 6 years and on day one i had to taste surströmming. How did you manage to live through that, in sweden... Mission impossible :D
the 1 dislike is most likely from someone whose comment didn't get put in the video
Ola, FAQ100 was epic! Nice touch traveling around and tasting something so disgusting with your family. Hint: Try a root beer float! (scoop or two of vanilla ice cream in the same cup as the root beer and eat with a spoon). Here's to your next 100! Cheers!
0:09 Hej Ola, congratulations on reaching FAQ 100. Hopefully the following will not become an FAQ: What on earth possessed you to add a laugh track? Laugh tracks suck and are not necessary.
You know how you said birthdays are awesome? They really are when your FAQ 100 gets uploaded on it :D
The next guitar I'd like to buy is Solar but I made a little mistake already buying a Chapman without trying it two years ago, it's a bit difficult for me to do it again.

Hey Ola you stopped doing the Satan amp. Does that mean there will one day be a Solar amp or no? P.S. I don't hate you for not liking root beer.
You are braver than me, lol, there's no way I'd be eating Surstromming or be within a mile of the opening of the can!
Awesome 100 video ola.
Everyone has a different view on the best live band, who do you think is the best live band?
Truly a FAQ worthy of being Number 100. It can only be topped by Number 200.. and what's with the backgrounds for the questions? LOL!
For the next FAQ: I expected a lot more of FAQ100. "Fireworks" etc, something awesome, something different, something special but no... we got surströmming, c'mon dude. Have you even tryed to make FAQ100 special?
Congrats man. See you on discord.(unshameless plug)
I enjoy it.
Hey Ola! FUCKING SLAYER! I love your channel and your Solar Guitars have some of the best guitar designs I’ve seen! I wanted to know about your thoughts on Testament. They’re my favourite band and I think you should check em out! For you I would recommend The Gathering album, it’s one of my favourites and one of the heaviest of their albums
Ola I demand ezdrummer and superior drummer presets for your members. Hook us up..Happy 100
Question for FAQ 101 : Hey Ola, do you have any plans to cooperate with local guitar stores in Europe to sell Solar Guitars ? I have one in Paris "Metal Guitar" and the manager of the shop really want to sell your amazing guitars. And the secret is that i want to try one before buy it :)
Congrats on FAQ 100, and thank you for always excellent and entertaining videos all the time.
By the way, what the F is going on in the background, man?
Hi Ola hope the best for the future and thanks for the amazing content
You should try and videoshoot the Ehx tattoo It's a freaking beast!!!
It gives a very ''sassy vibe'' but it is hella sexy
