Queen Tone? Vox MV50 AC/Marshall 1922/Gibson Les Paul Special DC
Переглядів 65314 днів тому
Happy New Year! While watching youtube.com/@izeksstudio?si=hX4a5e-layCSSDOZ Who is a real Brian May tone meister, I thought to test out my Vox MV50AC through a Marshall 1922 2x12 and using my Gibson Les Paul Special DC. The results were actually not far off a Queen Tone, judge for yourself in the video.

TOP 5 FOR SURE..
You should put together a Johnny Winter Tribute band.
A good excuse to buy a Firebird 🙂
Sir you are a breath of fresh air in this influncer poluted realm.. I hope you win the lottery!
Bless you for that, I should buy a ticket then 👍🙂👍Thanks for watching.
Wow.... I will give this a try. Never thought about that. Thank you and see you in Herborn or around. :D
@@Kuhmaster seems to work on some Guitar shapes better than others but you are welcome. 👍🙂👍
I think it was just a change of pace to let the other shoulder rest a bit. They always had a guitar hanging from them so one shoulder probably just got sore.
@@leechild4655Could be but I've seen a lot of photos of Freddie King and Albert Collins, I haven't seen one where they use the strap over the left shoulder. Anyway thanks for watching. 👍🙂👍
One of those albums doesn’t belong 😂 Those first few though A+
Sounds pretty good!
Thank you very much, what amp do you use? 🤔
@@philcorymusic At the moment, just an old Marshall 8080 valvestate as a clean platform, but I have had a Vox AC15 and a Vox 4 watt tube amp which was a cracking little amp. The little Vox head you have looks interesting, and sounds very nice with the LP guitar.
Valvestates Rock actually, I had a 100w 2x12, great for running a looper. AC15 also a cracking Amp. The 4 watt, not familiar with. These MV50 amps are really good, and LOUD enough to gig with, they lack an fx loop but can be modded for one. I'd recommend them. 👍
@@philcorymusic I will check it out. I am looking for something small and Vox-ish!
It'll compliment your Marshall tone well and you can even run it through your Marshalls Speakers, let me know how you get on 👍
just got one and I'm enjoying it
@@SpeedFragger Glad to hear it 👍
this is my go to as well!!
@@jshfault6636 Glad to hear it 👍 thanks for watching
Just got one for Christmas today, I plan on using it for my guitar recordings. I’ll let y’all know what I think tm when I get home
@@johndingus13th That's a cool gift! Have fun with the recordings 👍
@ yes sir🤍 my adoptive parents treated me well aha. I feel so fortunate even being able to have that gifted to me. I can’t wait to show yall everyone what I can do
@johndingus13th You landed well there yep. Send a link to your yt video of it when ur done 🙂
@@philcorymusic hey brother, any chance you could show me how to connect the mic from a scarlet red into my computer? I’m pretty stumped cause I’m new new to this.
I understand like how to plug it all it but it’s programming it into fl or pro tools that’s really confusing me
Just to note Glyn is still alive bless him, what a career!
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas to you too! 👍🎅👍
love my Joyo American pedal, sounds like old Fender amp. You can get them at Thomann under a different name now.
Good call, I'll check it out. Thanks for watching 👍🙂👍
U know ur way around the fretboard
Thank you very much! Happy Holidays! 👍🙂👍
Haha shred it man!
Thanks very much! 👍🙂👍
Playing demo is from 7:30 if you want to skip 👍
I have that amp too!
A great decision! I frequently forget how small it is when playing it through a 2×12 , thanks for watching 👍
Use tape insted
I would keep away from plastic personally, a hand towel works too but the barrier is the basic idea yep. Thanks for watching 👍
The hat looks awesome, Phil!
@@cracklingsoda yay thanks! We'll see how it gets on being crammed into my guitar case on my Motorcycle 🤣
Smart! I'm looking to do a string swap on my les Paul, I will be trying this when I get around to it
@@reeve7929 I hope you enjoy the added Slinkyness, let me know how it goes. 👍
@@philcorymusic Just finished up, and feels great! I especially like how the palm rests against the top wrapped strings, its pretty ergonomic
Very happy to hear that it works for you! Congrats 🙂
Really useful for Van Halen tunes
It does have a great sound. Thanks for watching 🙂👍👍
I just received mine but do not have distilled water in my town😂
Try the nearest Auto Parts Shop I guess, it's used in Car Batteries. Thanks for watching 👍
I just ordered one of these Jensen speakers for a JoYo BantCab, it came with a Celestion 8-15 that has the response of a cinder block.
I think you will be very happy. Cinder Block, very funny, let me know how it sounds when fitted. Thanks for looking in. 👍
The greatest guitars to grace us
Hey Phil, good luck with the Winter Season EP! Did you get the chance to use a real Mellotron? Cool 60s tech if you did. UA-cam has been a bit funny for me lately. The last video of yours it told me about was your "Gigging on a motorcycle Germany". When you posted it, I tried to leave a comment, but it wouldn't post? So I've missed a few of your videos..... Sorry to hear about the kidney stones, not very much fun to pass them so I've heard. Glad to hear you've gotten thorough to the other side of it. Kidney stones and busking in the snow, sounds positively masochistic.😁 Cheers Phil!
Hello there, you sound just like my friend Mike! Interested in the Analogue Synth stuff. Actually no it is an emulation, I wish I had a real Mellotron. Yt has all sorts of filtering going on if you use a forbidden word o guess don't worry just keep looking in, I usually post a video per week at least. Kidney Stones are little blighters, something so small can cause such aggravation. Thanks for the good wishes, the Christmas EP will surface soon. Snowy busking today wasn't so bad actually, people were very kind so I bought some nice essential grocery things. Cheers, I hope you are Well! 🙂
@@philcorymusic I only have a passing interest in the synth stuff. All the old equipment is too expensive for a mortal. I don't see anything wrong with emulation personally and I doubt I could hear the difference in a mix. Love those haunting swell orchestral sounds you can get with them though. Glad to hear the busking went well! Great for the audience too, get them feeling festive, and more willing to put their hands in their pockets. I've been well. But not much time for music personally. Which along with the weather has got me feeling blue. I thought about putting a video or two up on youtube myself, just to see if it would give me the motivation. Anyway, have a great one!
Yeah put some content up and let me know. My Christmas tune had some kids dancing so that was very cool to see. Keep me posted!
Just a guess but I'm thinking if they had included reverb and/or delay these would be selling a lot more because they do sound good
Fair point there, fx loop would have been nice to see but it is so tiny there is actually no room. Thanks for watching 👍
@@philcorymusic People have modded them to have fx loops!
That's interesting! I'll have a look into that for sure, thanks for the tip! And of course thanks for watching. 👍
@@philcorymusic look for mv 50 fx mod.
Thanks, is that on UA-cam?
I have that album! LOVE IT! When listening to the 17 minute version of the song, PLEASE use really good head phones! You MUST let the music dance around in your head! It's magical! Dim the lights. Light some incense. Breathe deep. Close your eyes. You don't need to take any drugs. This song will fill you with joy! :-)
@@KAH5371 So glad you immerse yourself in the music. It is a great piece, I never touch drugs thanks, they only make things worse. Thanks for watching. 👍
@@philcorymusic When I listen to most music, I will experience what is called "Frisson". I will feel the tingle on the back of my neck. I will have an intake of breath, a shiver. My eyes close and it is euphoric. I've always been this way. I don't get that feeling with all music, mostly classical, opera, and extremely awesome Rock music like "In-a Gadda-Da Vita's long version with the solos. (If that makes sense.) I love movie soundtracks that are mostly music, with little to no vocals. My favorite composer is Miklos Rozsa, who wrote the soundtrack for the 1958 movie "Ben-Hur". Won the Academy Award for it, too. I was around 8 or 9 when I saw that movie. I asked for the soundtrack album for Christmas that year. Of course, I do love the music from my generation, 50s, 60s, 70s. Listen to Simon and Garfunkle's "Bridge over Troubled Water" or "Sound of Silence" in Stereo with good head phones. Simply Sublime! People that can't experience "Frisson" have no idea what they are missing. Have a wonderful and Blessed day, @philcorymusic! ❤🎶🎵
So you bought outside of eBay?
Ebay closed all his listings 30 minutes.after this, yeah, bad luck and judgement I guess..I shall return 🙂
@ yea best not to trust anyone online, I sell on eBay and some idiot stole some of my pictures for their marketplace ad and it confused a buyer
I hear ya. Its a lesson to me but that's life.🙂 I think this person was also doing that. I played a show today and can afford to get a Boss RC1 so I will grab that but in person instead of online. Good luck with your Ebaying there. 👍
I too have my original vinyl copy purchased in 1974 on release. I have acquired a HumminGuru ultrasonic record cleaner recently and this really has cleaned this album perfectly! John Peel played the entire album, end to end on his late night show but introduced a side tone to prevent people taping it off the radio. The title track still sends shivers down my spine.
@@stephengarratt5076 Nice choice way back in the 70s there 👍 That Vinyl Cleaner sounds interesting, I have a Spincare, it's basic but gets good results. J Peel was a legend indeed. Thanks for watching 🙂
😎👍
You are such a talented musician. One could make an effin song outta this tune.
@@cracklingsoda Thanks very much. It's called Spring, it is released already and available on my Spotify,Apple and UA-cam Music. Thanks for watching 🙂
@@philcorymusic an off-topic question but .. as a musician, what's the #1 creativity advice you'd give to someone?
@@cracklingsoda I would say do it your way, don't listen to anyone who tries to steer you in their preferred direction. Listen to your heart and follow that every time. Thanks for a great question 🙂
Yes. Thank you!
Does it have an official recorded version? Or you were just jammin?
@@cracklingsoda Thank you! It's out already on Spotify, Apple, UA-cam Music. Thanks for watching 🙂 ua-cam.com/video/42Uc9_HIBSU/v-deo.htmlsi=qt6a0VgjSofN_Llr

Can also be used to check pickup height, adjust pickup poles, check nut slot depth, and tighten tuner nuts.

You know what’s up my friend.

@philcorymusic anen...my favorite is "Ricochet". BTW, r u with HOS?

Great playing. I just got one of those as my clean boost too. It sounds great.
Thank you 🙂 That's a great idea, they are super sounding and super value too.
Can you have multiple effects active at the same time?
@@IanRedmon Yes you can! That's what I do in the demo by adding a llthose effects, they are all active. It's a great pedal. Thanks for watching. 🙂
UP to 6 pedal chain

Cool I got the deluxe 2 hb... In the car hotel perfect...
Thanks for watching, nice 2 hbs 👍 yeah surprisingly good tone out of these little Guitars ✌️
Thinking of getting the deluxe version. I can't play a note at the moment and I'm a person of the wheelchair using variety, full size guitars are a bit big for me, this size would work.
@@markorollo.If you got it, I hope it works out for you Marko. If you are still thinking about it, I used to own one of these and the neck dive is really bad. It might not be a problem for you, or it might make it more difficult to play. Is it possible to try one out before you buy one? Another option might be a Jackson Dinky minion. I haven't played one, but they might balance better, while still being smaller than a standard guitar.
@@captainmilk2691 not got one yet but could be close, ive literally just been looking at it on the site of the store i want to buy from, kind of glad i dont have it yet as the amp im thinking of just got updated too... ive seen the jackson dinky, its on the list too :)
hell yeah
Thanks for watching ✌️
