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.
No...you are not stupid!! You are a man who has big balls and a great attitude, I can't wait till I buy another guitar... because the next one will definitely be one of yours. Keep up the great work and we will keep watching as always, peace brother from Australia.
Big 100!!! Congrats and hope you do at least another 100! Also, yes, Rick Graham is a freak of nature, chock full of awesomeness. Between him and Paul Gilbert so many people get shred lessons, so they deserve so much credit. And Merrow is also my favourite guiarist/songwriter. His music is perfect in my opinion. Excellent dark, sinister, moving, melodic. Can't say enough. But then there is the mighty Ola. Can't leave that out. Best content for guitarist entertainment plus more. Vlog genius with a diversified portfolio of content. Keep it up!!!
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
Hey Ola, glad you like your small gifts. It was a pleasure to put that together with all the guys. Question: Any changes for you/your channel with the updated YT regulations and copyright stuff, or something to adapt with the new membership possibilities.
Have you heard of the Finnish band Heavisaurus? They are a heavy metal band for kids. They dress up as dinosaurs, play metal and sing about kid stuff. Most of their songs are in Finnish but I think some are in Swedish. I don’t understand any of the lyrics but the songs are good.
Came into this channel some weeks ago and I absolutely love it, even if I'm a bass player. I quitted gigs and bands almost 8 years ago due to lack of time, but never stopped completely to play the bass. You gave me the inspiration to start thinking to go back in the business again! Wonder if there's a youtube channel like your but about the bass
My A2.7 blood red just arrived today and I honestly can say it is one of the most beautiful guitars I've ever seen I picked it up for the 1st time everything was so comfortable I plugged it in everything played so well thank you Ola very much thank you for your content thank you for my new guitar thank you from the bottom my heart sir I could not be happier
Congratulations Ola 👌 whilst I have subscribed for years and never had a question answered as I’m sure many others haven’t either, I couldn’t care less. Your knowledge and your channel has helped me a lot through these years to continue forward in every aspect of heavy music so thank you and all the best, let’s get to FAQ 200
MOTU really is, by far, my most played album. It's even knocked the new Dream Theater down to 2nd place. It's GREAT in the car on the way to or from my job. Would LOVE to see a 2nd solo album !! Congrats on 100 FAQ's !!
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 .
the part about "believing in your own material" and hoping the initial feeling sticks i think is something important for DIY musicians to hear bc we spend so much time on producing our own material playing it back over and over again that it's hard to tell if our stuff is even good or not by the time we're done with it it's kind of good to hear a pro saying that sort of thing i guess
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!
Congratulations on reaching 100 FAQs, Ola! Question for the next one: What do you think about Northlane's new album "Alien"? Many claim the album is a real game changer for metal. Bloodline, Talking Heads, Eclipse are great for a first listen. Thank you for all your great content!
I remember seeing Six Feet Under years ago in Cleveland when I first started going to metal shows and I thought to myself that guitar player is fucking awesome. Little did I know years later i'd be watching your videos. Fuck Yeah!
Congrats Ola! You've come along way since Mel Gibson back in 2010 (probably the funniest thing I have watched on youtube. Looking forward to what your future brings.
sincerely, congrats to 100 and holy shit, i'm gonna keep watching this one over and over through the next month. at least once or twice a day. now back to Discord to scare people with weird voices and sampling.
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.
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.
As a lover of root beer, I was initially thinking he had some bad root beer in the first video, but I drink that Boylan root beer sometimes, and it's actually a really good one... it's official, Ola just doesn't like root beer. This saddened me so much, and I was considering quitting team cart when he said it's not cart worthy, but then he ate rotten herring, and that made me feel better. Congrats on 100, Ola, the haterer of root beers!
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
Hey, thank YOU, Mr the Swede! Cheers for cracking the ton! You definitely deserve all the love and support and stuff, so keep doing the thing...you inspirational bastard! P. S. Have you considered the possibility of releasing multiscale versions of any of the Solar range?
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!
Happy 100! I triple dog dare you to try an A&W root beer.A lot of us Canadians consider it the best ever root beer,if you don’t like it theres no point in trying any more.
You showing Stockholm while answering questions was really cool, I'd love to see you do a tour of your favorite places in the city. I was there last Friday and I totally loved it. Ps. Congrats on the 100th FAQ, you are awesome!
Ola, I just found your channel around two months ago but you’ve quickly become one of my favorite channels to watch, happy I could be here for this milestone. I always come away from your videos in a good mood, keep it up and God bless.
Tjena! How hard/easy is it to get your family to join the videos, and how weirded out/awkward are they "behind the scenes"? They seems more relaxed than I would think. Keep up the quality content
I bought a can of Surstromming off eBay and opened it with some friends. I think that can was a few years ripe. Within five minutes of opening, we attracted all of the carrion in the area and there were vultures circling the area. The fish was so fermented it had turned to liquid. Only Moogle the dog got to taste any of it.
100th FAQ hella fucking yeah! you make my dawn less depressing , BTW When you feel depressed, think that in Venezuela there is a 35-year-old guitarist who has played guitar since he was 12 uninterruptedly, and that the most expensive guitar he has ever played has been a Yamaha RGX220DZ and that he had to sell because he could not buy the Christmas gifts to his children and now he can't have a fucking guitar for over a year and a half, that's depressing friend, I love to see how a good guy triumphs you are my inspiration to continue in this fight.
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
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!
Although I admire so many things about Sweden, after watching this video there is one thing I’ve noticed we do better in America...can openers. What the hell was that medieval tool you opened that expired can of salted fish with? Haha. Congrats on your 100th FAQ Ola!! 🤘🤘
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.
This isn't really a question, but I just wanted to congratulate you for the FAQ #100 and a the great content you make. I've been having trouble finding something good to watch on UA-cam, but your videos never disapoint. Keep it up, keep it metal. Cheers from Brazil 🤘
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!
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!
Hi Ola, would you please try the MXR Dime Distortion? The UA-cam 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 🤘
Congrats on 100 great FAQS. I can say without a doubt you have my favorite UA-cam content out there. You have kept it genuine and entertaining all through the years. All the burps and claps kept me laughing in the hardest times. Thank you for all the great videos and knowledge. Cheers from California. Onto my question for FAQ 101, what newer bands/musicians do YOU think are pushing the boundaries of metal music the most in today's age?
Congratulations on FAQ 100. Looking forward to the future of Solar Guitars and the UA-cam channel along with any future musical releases as a solo artist or with Feared or the Haunted. Lots of love and see you on Discord. Keep kicking ass.
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.
You're my favorite UA-cam 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.
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
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.
Eating Surströmming with Jimmy Page and Russel Crowe
Lmao I saw it too
My thoughts exactly xD
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.
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.
Haha!! That Miku solo just killed me. The humour in this channel is the best.
New segment? Ola Hates Rootbeer. Just keep trying different brands of rootbeer.
This is the earliest I've been to an upload ever, great video
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.
Don't Stop, Ola, KEEP FUCKING CRUSHING IT, DUDE!!!!!!!!!
\m/\m/
No...you are not stupid!! You are a man who has big balls and a great attitude, I can't wait till I buy another guitar... because the next one will definitely be one of yours. Keep up the great work and we will keep watching as always, peace brother from Australia.
Big 100!!! Congrats and hope you do at least another 100! Also, yes, Rick Graham is a freak of nature, chock full of awesomeness. Between him and Paul Gilbert so many people get shred lessons, so they deserve so much credit. And Merrow is also my favourite guiarist/songwriter. His music is perfect in my opinion. Excellent dark, sinister, moving, melodic. Can't say enough.
But then there is the mighty Ola.
Can't leave that out. Best content for guitarist entertainment plus more. Vlog genius with a diversified portfolio of content.
Keep it up!!!
FAQ 101- Grind vs 33 vs Tubescreamer to boost a duel rec.
Been watching you forever thanks for everything
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
Hey Ola, glad you like your small gifts. It was a pleasure to put that together with all the guys.
Question: Any changes for you/your channel with the updated YT regulations and copyright stuff, or something to adapt with the new membership possibilities.
Have you heard of the Finnish band Heavisaurus? They are a heavy metal band for kids. They dress up as dinosaurs, play metal and sing about kid stuff. Most of their songs are in Finnish but I think some are in Swedish. I don’t understand any of the lyrics but the songs are good.
Changing out your lead part with Miku? Just for your FAQ? That's why you are the man! Thanks Ola , That was really fun!
Howdy Ola, whatever happened to Just The Tip? I miss that series.
Maybe just the tip wasn't quite enough
Came into this channel some weeks ago and I absolutely love it, even if I'm a bass player. I quitted gigs and bands almost 8 years ago due to lack of time, but never stopped completely to play the bass. You gave me the inspiration to start thinking to go back in the business again! Wonder if there's a youtube channel like your but about the bass
Welcome man!
My A2.7 blood red just arrived today and I honestly can say it is one of the most beautiful guitars I've ever seen I picked it up for the 1st time everything was so comfortable I plugged it in everything played so well thank you Ola very much thank you for your content thank you for my new guitar thank you from the bottom my heart sir I could not be happier
I love the set up of this video. Switching between opening and tasting/the beautiful scenery.
Congratulations Ola 👌 whilst I have subscribed for years and never had a question answered as I’m sure many others haven’t either, I couldn’t care less. Your knowledge and your channel has helped me a lot through these years to continue forward in every aspect of heavy music so thank you and all the best, let’s get to FAQ 200
100 FAQs. Seriously, it's been fun watching you, and learning from you. Hope to be here in 2 years.

it's kind of good to hear a pro saying that sort of thing i guess
I was happy to hear that too.
For me, the best thing about finishing recording a new song is not having to play it again :)
Proud of you Ola! Years and years of enjoying your work
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?

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.

You showing Stockholm while answering questions was really cool, I'd love to see you do a tour of your favorite places in the city. I was there last Friday and I totally loved it.
Ps. Congrats on the 100th FAQ, you are awesome!
Thanks Ola! Enjoy your observations!
Is your brother Russel Crowe?
Like a mix of him and Rob Chapman
Ola, I just found your channel around two months ago but you’ve quickly become one of my favorite channels to watch, happy I could be here for this milestone. I always come away from your videos in a good mood, keep it up and God bless.

Happy anniversary!! 🤘😀🤘
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.
Although I admire so many things about Sweden, after watching this video there is one thing I’ve noticed we do better in America...can openers. What the hell was that medieval tool you opened that expired can of salted fish with? Haha. Congrats on your 100th FAQ Ola!! 🤘🤘
Would you put a can of Surströmming in your nicest convoluted can opener?
Thank you Ola for beeing the entertainerer!
What's with those weird muscly guys? 🤣 That's bizzarre.
Congrats for this #100 FAQ!
Can't wait for #101
We love you Ola, The guitar shredderer!!!

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!
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
Finally FAQ100 BEEN WAITING FOR THIS MOMENT! Grats Ola!
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!
Congrats ola you are the shit I too share your passion for Pantera that's what first got me subscribing.
Pls taste more stuffs. It's great!
Why?
Becuase it's the best series on this goddamn platform, that's why!
Hi Ola, would you please try the MXR Dime Distortion? The UA-cam 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 🤘
Look forward to FAQ’s every sunday morning!
Congrats on faq 100! Keep up the hard work brother! Much love from fuckin 'merica!
Congratulations!! Your show is great, but would be that much better with a "will it hug" episode or two.
