    I saw Devin 4 years ago on the 70'000 tonnes of metal cruise. Most bands used amps, Devin and the band were using axe fx. Devin and the band had the best sound of the whole cruise and what was great was even at the second show when the laptop died and they did everything with no backing and no clicks it still sounded massive.

  • @michaelr.4878
    @michaelr.4878 Рік тому +10

    The thing that amazes me the most about Devin is the fact that he writes and performs all of his stuff in an open, major tuning. The guy is an incredible writer/composer, performer and is absolutely brilliant...but it is his choice in tuning that impresses me the most. I couldn't do it. It obviously works for him..but I can't wrap my mind around it. Just imagine auditioning to join his band. hahaha. I have been playing guitar for almost 30 years and I couldn't do it. I wouldn't know where to start.

    • @bleedingfly
      @bleedingfly Рік тому +4

      I thought the same until i tried it. It makes everything make sense, so you can just get on and play. I thought it would make modes and arpeggios and things more complicated but it's the opposite. Everything is where it 'should' be. It's VERY intuitive. I'm 30 years playing too and switching over has been effortless. I honestly don't understand why standard tuning is 'the standard'?! Open C should be the standard. Give it a month and you'll see what i mean \m/

    • @thevikingwarrior11
      @thevikingwarrior11 Рік тому

      Straight facts. Been playing for 20 years myself and every time I try to mess around in open C, I'm just like "Well, shit... I just sound like Devin". Then I find a new song of his to learn.

    • @Hyperlink1337
      @Hyperlink1337 Рік тому

      When he was young he tuned it to open c to play a led zep song and probably just learned to play with it like that. Just takes practice

  • @matthewgierula5674
    @matthewgierula5674 Рік тому +4

    I totally get why he uses the AXE Effects. If you had to recreate his sounds live, you would need a van full of pedal racks. Its way simpler for him to recreate his sound live because its the same as what he writes with. Also, he makes the point of consistency of sound every night. I want to build a guitar with his Fishman Pickups in the worst way or find a good used Charvel or Jackon to put them in. Every UA-cam demo that I have seen about those have been amazing. I love triangle picks too. Johnny Ramone and Kerry King turned me on to them way back.

    The helix floor as a unit is really the best like he says. If only L6 would ever update their amp modeling they would crush it. Their modeling has absolutely no feel at all to their high gain amps. Maybe this year they stop just making cheaper and cheaper versions of a helix and get their modeling updated.
