the HUM!

[eSGEe]

 

[gball]

It's all about a favorable signal-to-noise ratio.

 

[eSGEe]

.....say what? I Cant hear you over the hum? !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

at one point it sounds like bacon sizzling---

 

[Trident]

Yah mean the MOTORBOAT Hummmm

 

[Thatbastarddon]

Yeah...that very high gain hum and spit that comes with music like this...

Signal to noise ratio is definitely a factor.

You can tell who influenced those guys.

 

[Sp8ctre]

No thanks...I'd rather listen to bacon sizzling at least I have a good meal when it's done.

Not my music at all...

 

[Sp8ctre]

"you can hear the wood and string in the tone" Really?

Had never heard of them until I got a Laney AOR30 & someone posted this video of Laney AOR's in a thread. Still love it!

I would think that it, possibly, would have been me....I know that I’ve posted that video here at least once.

 

[RobV]

It was way before TTR actually. I haven't had that AOR in a long while. I traded it for a Marshall Artist 30H which I ended up swapping for a DSL50H.

 

[Thatbastarddon]

Gotcha! I want to say it was in a discussion about Green amps, here, that I posted it a while back.
The thread took a turn to Laney for a bit.

Paul Anka?

At 0:55 he cannot find the bridge volume control and turns down both tones looking for it....

This is how most players I know sound in terms of noise. If you were in a studio, and you were producing that kind of noise, the engineer wouldn't work with you. It's as simple as that.

If the signal chain has that much noise - and the guitar player isn't bothered by it - I can almost guarantee I can find issues with clarity, technique and basic tuning that is being overlooked as well.

It's kind of a "No Brown M&M's" situation...

The music isn't bad - IMHO - but the noise is just ridiculous....

The dude needs a Hum Debugger........

The dude needs a Hum Debugger........

I got one. Works like a charm

 

[RVA]

I love it when people decsribe themselves as F'd-up and wild and zany, rather than disorganized and haphazard. I know, I am get old

BTW, the live stage is no time to experiment with your tone just because there is no singing part for you

He is like a potty mouth Nigel Tuffner

He could be their poster artist!!!@@!!!

As he said in the video, he only has one master tone on that three pickup custom...
(Of course that is pointed out around a minute later)

His set up is beyond the Hum Debugger. It’s more in line with needing 5 or 6 Decimator II G-string pedals, set up in four cable mode.
