I can't believe they do all those crazy sounds with such simple pedalboards, they sound like nobody else, using the same things that anyone else has. That's awesome creativity.
Well cause a lot of people really wimp out on effects and just subtly blend them in instead of embracing the sound they bring and really leaning into it.
those XP-100s are no joke. i was surprised to see they use them considering how much more popular the 1st and 4th gen whammys are, but it can still do a lot of cool stuff and has some harmony modes that are only on the bass whammy
In the late 90s during high school Brian Welch was a personal hero of mine and inspired me to play guitar. It broke my heart when he left KoRn, but the fact that he did it to clean himself up and now he’s just so energetic and full of life again makes me so happy. So many great musicians pass on early because of overdose or suicide. The fact KoRn is still going strong, I’m very proud of these guys. I never got to superstar status but I at least got good enough where I’ve been in some great bands and got to play some large shows. Times I will never forget, now I’m just an average working stiff but I still write and play music as a hobby.
Head and Munkey are underrated in terms of their contributions to metal, IMO. Like he said, they were searching for 7 strings and playing detuned, low ass riffs when many players were wearing flannel and trying to sound like Nirvana.
yeah i agree these two have the greatest guitar playing dynamic. i honestly hate metal. no offense to you metal fans but its a shit genre... u need to slow it down, get the drummer and bass player to get a real groove and then you can have two guitar legends like head and munky work their magic. korn is the best band ever better than radiohead better than the roots
Nick That really is your opinion.Saying a genre is "shit" because you don't like the bass or drums is just straight up ignorance.There is a lot of bands that does have the groove, you are being prejudicial about it.
i realize that. i should have added specific sub genres i actually appreciate a lot of metal. i mean death metal black metal stuff thats too fast and vocals so bad i cannot comprehend how anyone could listen without getting a headache.. :)
I’m not quite sure how much touring you’ve done. I can tell you sometimes, you don’t have the time. You simply can’t be everywhere at once. I hear people saying this all the time. Sure it’s awesome they could do their own.
I actually had the opportunity to have a drink with Munky at his hotel during a tour and the guy is nothing but down to earth and awesome. Really humble too, talked about Bakersfield being a kind of shitty place to grow up and now he's going all over the world playing music. Hands down one of the nicest rock "stars"
I know firsthand that these guys are indeed just that. Some cool ass dudes from Bakersfield that had the right formula. Unpretentious and chill is what these guys are
They really are. I’ve been lucky enough to hangout/meet/party with them several times and they’re all super down to earth and nice. Fieldy is a cocky prick though. That was a let down but totally expected. Haha
Mike Stallings I’ve met fieldy more than once too in LA and while they toured around the states he was super nice and cool to be around along with the other guys ,maybe you caught him on an off day(s)
i love korn. ive been listening to them since i was a kid, 20 years ago. now im only beginning to understand the genius behind the effects and the way they handled their instruments. respect
I just realized that 20 years ago was 2004, which is indeed a long time ago 😂 You should’ve heard them back in the late-90s. Follow The Leader and Issues were everywhere. All over MTV.
I personally thank them! Breaking the habit of writing melody’s where the lowest notes are always e or f is stupid, write different stuff sometimes guys.
@thephoenixcycle8854 To be fair, though, even at their absolute peak, Fear Factory never came close to matching KoRn's popularity. I love some old school FF as much as the next guy. But it ultimately boils down to this. Everyone who listens to Fear Factory has heard of Korn. But, not everyone who listens to Korn has heard of Fear Factory.
You look at the pedalboard of this guys and I saw the pedal board of Tom Morello in this channel as well. You hear the sounds they make and you imagine this U2 Edge kind of complicated rag and then realize is mainly a few very old, simple, cheap pedals and a lot of fun and creativity with them. This guys of Korn may not be the best players out there but they definitely set up a very define style and sound that inspire thoundsends over the year. Yet another example of "is not what you have but what you do with it" Good for them.
Oh these guys are waaaay better than you think. Munky side project Venera sounds like it would be an organ/moog/synth textures but he is getting that out of his guitar and Head was laying Van Halen solos since he was teen. These guys are very talented. The amount of dudes I know who can execute arpeggio sweeps etc but can’t strum basic chords well is crazy.
He's got some of the coolest Ibanez guitars. Every single tour over the last 25 years he'd get a whole new lineup of custom guitars. Like the blue and white one with the paw on fret 12. Many others
I’ve never been into these guys- I was a dickhead elitist death and black metal guy when they first can around (still am lol)- but they seem like awesome people and extremely knowledgeable and devoted to their music. Big ups to Korn.
I love watching these when they actually talk to the guitarist instead of the tech. The tech probably knows more about the gear, but it's always interesting to hear the guitarist talk about their own stuff.
I'm still into them in my late 30s and just saw them live in 2022 and still wear their shirts and buy their new CD's. Their music has aged perfectly, hell even their two first major label albums still sound like something that could be released in 2024, thirty years later.
Thats what i like about these videos, you can hate the band completely but just nerd out about the gear. (Im actually kinda a korn fan but ive watched other bands im not exactly a fan of)
+Felix Nilbog I wish more people were like you and not get mad when someone doesn't like their band. I love seeing these gear videos no matter what the band.
I can’t help but laugh while Munky has to hold the mic while he talks and tries to handle the guitars with his other hand while Bolinger just stands there
I went to go see KoRn live in L.A. and I was lucky enough to catch HEADS pick!!. I swear it was meant to be because it was a perfect catch. I couldn’t believe it, I bought a acrylic case and hung it on my wall. It’s a pretty funny pick too, It’s his face photoshopped onto Conan the Barbarians body, lol. 😂😂😂🤘🏻🔥
it always somewhat surprised me that their guitars never sported active EMG pickups instead of your standard passive pickups. Especially because they tune a whole step down. I think the reason why I've always wondered this mainly because I recall an article where they described how muddy their heavy tones were to record during the first record, and that was essentially attributed to the pickup technology not being where it needed to decrease the mud in the signal.
Yep, I just saw them with Staind about 3 weeks ago! They definitely stole the show, but I think most people were there for Korn, I saw at least 100 different KoRn shirts and literally not one Staind shirt! Staind were great though too.
Interesting hearing Munky talk about those original Ibanez guitars...I'd think if anyone could go out there and purchase a bunch of older ones it would be him! awesome interview even though I've watched this many times...always fun to come back and give it a listen!
I absolutely adore the incredible low-end they obtain on their albums. Issues and Follow The Leader have incredibly deep and full sounding guitar tones.
If anyone is listening to the new generation of metalcore/numetal/death core then you know these bands wouldn’t exist without KORN but mainly Head and Munky’s contribution to the scene. 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
Its cause hes got a light as bright as the sun shining on him. Look how lit up those two are. And musicians dont care about their look, their music takes them places
As a long time fan and equally guitar nerdy as them Thing I like most about their guitar sound is that Korn's tone has a certain growl to it that some folks tuning lower don't even get.
One big key to that growl is using whammy pedal’s -1 octave setting and having that track in the center of the records. It is hilariously low, but gives you that thick tone.
Didn't realize Head played a baritone electric. I got an RGIB21 over a year ago and I love it. I keep it in the standard B tuning and it sounds awesome. It's got the EMG active pickups in it which sound good. I might switch them out for passive in another year.
@@vxrdrummer Tbh it always was kind of "his" band, at least he's the one who gets the ball rolling. But all the others bring their own thing to make it come together as Korn. Just think how much the songs changed since Head came back and Jon is just one in a million.
Good to know this guy invented the volute that have been on instruments like violins for centuries... Glad you and Ibanez were on that there... I'm sure he asked for something vague like "Hey you know how Gibson break at the neck... We should not do that man, we should invent something to fix it" and Ibanez were just like "Uhh, you mean a neck volute? Sure, easy enough..."
My new favorite interviewer, John Bollinger, Rebecca was good too, but dudes were sometimes self conscious around her. John makes them comfortable and I feel like I am hearing the interviewee better, Hell, John gives them the damn mic, these are down to earth interviews people, thanks John. Meanwhile John can play some down to earth guitar too. I loved Rebecca but these interviews have me coming away wit more information. Thanks John.
Mess Boogie should make Fieldy a signature M-2000 head. All with same specs. He has used those heads since 1995 Life is Peachy album. I met him back stage on life is Peachy tour and he told me they are the best heads ever built and he still plays through them to this day. Thats dedication.
I played a gig in Camden in the 90's and all of Korn, except Davis, were in the bar afterwards - it struck me how tiny they all are! I mean I'm short but they are all like 5ft!
For the genre they play... how long they've played it and with age and life experiences they all seem to dig who they are and playing in what has to be borderline classic rock at this point thats whats up... im 35 right now and if i walked into a concert and saw them playing freak on a leash i would instantly feel like i was elementary school and that would kick ass
I love the fact that these guys are using the same rig for the last 10-20 years...I mean, they found their sound and they stick with it. No need to have a fancy 5000$ boutique amplifier head and a 5000$ PRS guitar when you have your own style. I mean, look at Head pedalboard! It's pretty straightfoward, no fancy boutique pedals, just the same 5 pedals he's using for the last 20 years. Thumbs up for that!
Horrible pedal. Use a Tube-screamer on top of your amp gain set at about 8-9 then run the Tubescreamer or OD-808 or TS-9 with the gain set low and tone all the way up. It will give you a LOT more definition and bite. Go through a Noise suppressor into a good tube amp and you'll never need anything else distortion wise.
I like the new cameras and mic system you have here. Looks professional and now the mic can be farther away and less awkward, and it sounds great. Nice work PG!
I was at this show. It was in Nashville Tn!!! Great great show!!! They came back in Nov 21th 2014 with Slipknot and King 810.......they sounded better than slipknot live at that concert
"This is my signature Bass....(points to the headstock)...right there's my signature!"
You're awesome Fieldy.
To bad he never learned to play it...
Joseph petersen STFU.
his IQ is lower than the amount of strings on his bass.
Clickclick click click click
All the hate for Fieldy... can't deny his importance for the Korn sound tho!
Munky and Head were never the most technical players but they had a great sound and made the most of the skills they had. Underrated guitarists.
i would implore you to check out the LAPD album and Creep demos they did, all of them are much better players than Korns music would have you believe.
@@byronthomas8230 where can I find the creep demos

For real. Their tone is really good. The bass tone is super great as well. Not a huge fan of the band but their tone is money

I was gonna say that’s a much smaller pedalboard than I was expecting
In the late 90s during high school Brian Welch was a personal hero of mine and inspired me to play guitar.

I’m weak he uses a metal zone but to get a shitty AM radio sound I hope you are happy boss

I have an original UV-7PWH, because of him. Its something special for sure.
I love the fact that these guys are using the same rig for the last 10-20 years...I mean, they found their sound and they stick with it. No need to have a fancy 5000$ boutique amplifier head and a 5000$ PRS guitar when you have your own style.
I mean, look at Head pedalboard! It's pretty straightfoward, no fancy boutique pedals, just the same 5 pedals he's using for the last 20 years. Thumbs up for that!
I didn’t know did my time featured the infamous Metal Zone
He Sure changed the subject quick when john briefly mentioned about if he used standard 5 string B tuning……😲
9:06 he uses a metal zone!!
+Lithium yeah, for an alarm clock sound.. lmao
Horrible pedal. Use a Tube-screamer on top of your amp gain set at about 8-9 then run the Tubescreamer or OD-808 or TS-9 with the gain set low and tone all the way up. It will give you a LOT more definition and bite. Go through a Noise suppressor into a good tube amp and you'll never need anything else distortion wise.
Lithium If it works it works
Back in the day it was on nearly everyone's board.
@@whoohaaXL use it as a pre-amp in the fx loop. It's the greatest pedal ever when you learn that trick.
I remember seeing Korn like ten years ago. Munky and Head has pedalboards that were like 10 feet long each. ha. They've really downsized since then.
if you turn the volume up on the xp100 too high, it causes a lot of clipping
I like the new cameras and mic system you have here. Looks professional and now the mic can be farther away and less awkward, and it sounds great. Nice work PG!
THEY ARE KORN AND WE ARE THE CHILDREN...
Head is just the coolest guy ever!
I was at this show. It was in Nashville Tn!!! Great great show!!! They came back in Nov 21th 2014 with Slipknot and King 810.......they sounded better than slipknot live at that concert
