Bro Zach's been smoking for so long he's on fire at this point. And for my money does the best reviews with some of my personal favorite riffs/tones. ALWAYS with the Alice in Chains, that's #1 ALWAYS with TOOL that's point #2 A LOT with some Deftones point #3 and then sooooo many AWESOME Indie bands I never thought I'd hear on an awesome gear channel.
The Empire + Grace are two of the best modern high gain amps ever made. Brian rules, You rule and all the tones you can get out of this amp and the Grace are so good.
Loved your demo of the Grace, and this one did not disappoint in the least either. Really dig your choice of songs, and that amp really is something different. Incredible tone my friend.
***commenting4thealgo*** Love your music taste, have been listening to your videos all day today while working, what a treat to have a new one come out before I go to bed. Yours is hands down the best guitar tone on UA-cam, criminally low subscribers for what you deliver. Keep up the great work!! PS I’m really hoping you can get your hands on a Diezel VHX to test at some point!
Zach’s rhythm playing is so good, his taste in music is so good, and of course his tone is incredible. One of the best right now reviewing gear on YT, no doubt.
That sounds like the ideal high gain tone for me right there. Aside from that I'm always very impressed by the sounds of the SIlverburst. It's remarkable how big yet clear it sounds with those drop riffs, heavenly!
Sound like a combination of JCM800 and Diezel VH4. It’s definitely belongs to this family of amps, it has the openness and airiness of the Diezel with the layered coat of the JCM800 which almost sounds to me as a unique compression quality it has. What I adore in this family of amps, is the clear and punchy definition of the notes. What a great time to be alive!
YES! Love my Carstens Grace. This sounds incredible. And I agree, there is most definitely an addictive quality - a very dynamic feel and super 3D sound and harmonics - when playing Carstens amps. ...and the master volumes on these amps are just stunning. You can play 100watts at bedroom levels and it still sounds great.
Hear the Empire in a full mix here: ua-cam.com/video/2qssUA-4nic/v-deo.htmlsi=IEML561EjmyTW0W8
I have no idea how Zach only has 20k subs…this channel is a music/guitarist dream. You rock dude!
Well shit. I’m all in with this thing.
Gear review video incoming?
Glad to know you watch Zach’s videos, Ryan! He always has such an incredible tone, as do you 💪🏻
Killer demo killer amp. Nice Brian and fuck yeah Zack.

Very nice to see you snuck in that riff from Dine Alone by Quicksand. Would REALLY enjoy hearing you play more of their stuff.
“The more of you that I inspect. The more of me I see reflect”….Zach always seems to know the tunes I like!
Yea he just knows the great tunes that I enjoy but don’t expect haha🤘
Killer vid man. Great selection of riffs too! That Quicksand record never gets old.
You always have the most beautiful looking finishes on your guitars.
Man it's been quite a while since a demo got me wanting gear... This is REALLY nice
I hear Killing Joke and I hit the thumbs up! Sounds great.
Absolutely AWESOMENESS .. Keep it up Master Zack :) Big hug

Wake up babe, new Zach Wish video just dropped 🎉🎉
Hell yeah! Killing Joke. Loved the playing dude.
Dood, your so good! Always nails the tunes!
That Les Paul is KING!!
Thank you Zach! You know we all love you \m/ And you played some of my personal favs! Great demo
Being called empire made me think it was a new Corgan collab!
Time for a new copy and tweaks. Thanks.
Man you always have the best collections of riffs. It always makes me want to play.
I love amps that can edge.
Didn’t see you lower / mess with the master volume. How is it at bedroom volume?
Curious as to how this would stack up to the JCM800 slammed with a boost in front
Killing joke! RIP Geordie Walker
sounds a bit like my PRS Archon 50w v2
I ALWAYS GO OUT EATING WITH MY BEST FRIENDS
its less than normal
would be great if you could make Neural Amp Models of your rigs, they sound amazing!

Zach- love the Toe to Toes playthrough... You rock...!!!
Sounds excellent. I’m digging the guitars you’ve got in rotation, too!
Pneuma double tracked here sounded awesome.
Sounds great!
Brian makes kiler amps! I've had the Grace and now I own the Empire. Such a great amp!
That silver burst is so chunky. Love the Quicksand!
Damn!!!! Guitar to guitar it sounds like a different amp... Much more so than other amplifiers. Great showcase
very cool !!
Good GOD that is some tasty tone. Dam That River will always be the GOAT tone test riff
Random riffing started quite townsend-esque
Zach can make a 1 watt practice amp sound amazing. No one does amp reviews better than this guy

A blend of this and the grace in a mix would be killer
Zach, would love to hear you demo a Wizard Modern Classic 2!
Man... I want so bad an IR of your cab/mics!
What song is playing at 10:49 on the time stamp?
Are we getting a review of the Starcaser?
Toe to toe!! Yeah buddy killer
Sounds amazing!
*looking up the price*
Holy geez, it'll be almost $5000 to my country!
Cool amp but wish it wasn't built in the US.
Ill never have it at that price😢😢
YES!
Love my Carstens Grace.
This sounds incredible.

mmm.. excellent playing... anyways, it is a generic high gain sound.... am I the only one still waiting for a trully revolutionary sort of amp?
