I've been a dean fan, since the 90's. These new select series guitars are incredible. Initially I was pissed when their top tier imports moved to Indonesia instead of Korea, but after playing these, and the new solar guitars, I really can't complain. They are doing some great work over there.
Pauses video. Leaves room for two hours. Returns to room.... Me: I can't remember whose video I'm watching here. Presses play. Video: PINCH HARMONICS ALL OVER THE PLACE Me: Oh right, it's Ray! I absolutely love satin black single cuts. Great video as always dude!
I really ought to study how you play. Pinch harmonics are very difficult for me still. You've clearly mastered those. Also those fretmarkers are killer looking! Block inlays are neat too
Hey, Ola Englund has a couple videos on pinch harmonics here on UA-cam. If you aren't aware or a fan of him, he's got a Ton of instructional videos on his channel. Check them out. I can also assist, if you have any questions. I have pretty much mastered pinch harmonics myself, so If you have a question, just ask. 🤘
@@Bigfatriffmaker I do like Ola. And wasn't actually aware he had instructional videos like that. Thanks for the suggestion! I'm aware sort of on how it's supposed to work, so maybe his demoes might help then.
@@Madchris8828 I hope they do. If not, I can tell you, you gotta put your pick in your hand, where it Just sticks out your fingers. And try stroking a note hard while letting your thumb rub slightly up and off the string, and you gotta play it Hard, with your fret and picking. Hope this helpz!
@@bradjohnson3179 right on man!!!yea,they have a good feel/look and price...i think I'm gonna pick this one up with emg 81/85 next paycheck!!!thanks man.🤘👍
@@xanderraymondcharles Yes man! It really is! I'm so happy dude. Now I'll have my 28" baritone jazzmaster I custom built, 27" Viper baritone and now the Eclipse. All recently purchased the past few months. I feel complete now. Can do everything I want with playing guitar FINALLY! Lol...I absolutely dig your new Dean man. I hope you have a rad day Ray 🤘🏼😁
@@marhier I'd love to get the baritone EC eventually. But they're not so easy to find these days. Dude I'm playing that EC that I got today and it feels so tiny lmao! Because I've been playing mostly baritone guitars for months. It's cool though the regular sized guitar is super easy to play now after that lol 🤘🏼😂
Nice demo , that guitar is true heavy metal .. cleans are nice . Your playing is magnificent , that dean thoroughbred can hang with the esp ltd 1000 ec and schecter solo ll hell raiser 😆.
Hey Ray, I'm sure you have spoken about this before but I am new to the channel. So I've got to ask...why the cover-ups on the tats? Excuse my ignorance 🤘🏻Keep on Keepin on 🍻
Think you sold me on a modern set over the classics. I've always worried about how they clean up, but that neck clean tone was creamy! I just bought (still on two week police hold at Wilmington GC) a Schecter Solo II in aged satin black. It's a lot like this one except...Block Inlays! Has the coil split pasadenas in it, but I think I'm gonna swap it some gold fishman moderns. You used up a years worth of my pinch harmonics that sound right, in 2 min 🤘
I have a Jericho fusion walnut 27" baritone w/ evertune. Build quality is top notch and features for the price was unbeatable. I couldn't find anything that come close in price with the same specs and quality even with shipping to Australia. If you get the opportunity definitely check em out.
i really need to practice my E string pinch harmonics at the upper neck of the guitar....i really struggle with 1st, 2nd and 3rd fret pinch harmonics on the fat E string
try using two fingers to bend it more to get the sound out. so, if your are only using your index finger try using both index and middle finger. also the more gain you use the easier the sound will come out!! just sharing some advice!
@@loganwright5046 I have the sound, my problem is I bend before I struck the string so I miss the harmonic….I get it everywhere else but I think I’m concentrating too much on timing the bend and striking the string. I can do it slow, but sped up in a riff I struggle
I am with you on the block inlays,I wish my James Hetfield signature iron cross guitar had block inlays 🤘🤘.if it did I'd sleep with it but because it don't it goes back into the closet 😂😂.
@@xanderraymondcharles No man,you a bad mamma jamma...aint no one trick pony!!!I'm curious to hear that new super crush by orange!!!maybe you got a demo coming???hint hint,wink wink.jk🤘😜👍
@@xanderraymondcharles I can't believe I'm sitting here looking at "yeezy 450" replicas.lol they just look so cool to me.I blame Jamie Slays for it cause he's always wearing them!!!🤘😜👍later Gator!!!
Unpopular opinion but I think fishman cleans stink, but that’s not what you buy them for lol but this guitar sounds amazing once the distortion hits lmao
Love the inlays on the fretboard. 🤘🤘
I like how your cat is just chilling upside down in the background 🙈🙈
She’s the best hahah
That thing is pretty awesome! I love that they use a toggle to select the voice instead of a push/pull! 🤘🏼🤘🏼
Me too! Makes way more sense tonme
Such a cool guitar man! I love that inlays. Pretty and cool sounding thing. Chilling cat is a star of this video though!

Hell yeah \m/ Bad ass fiddle !
Also, holy sh*t Ray. You say you are not a lead player, but those were some awesome leads !

I absolutely love satin black single cuts. Great video as always dude!
dude !!! that first play Riff is Frigging awesome!!!!! like Korn obsessed with pitch harmonics haha
Love Fishman's, recently got some myself! Like the design of the inlay on that Dean.
Sick guitar!
You seem to play that one super tight and clean. Would love to play one of these. Thanks for sharing \m/
awesome clean tones brother
omg this guitar lust is never-ending.

Damn thats a wicked guitar, I love it
Ray, be honest. How big of an influence is Zakk Wylde on your playing? Lol. Great work amigo.
Those cleans were really beautiful
This one looks great . The Matt black makes it look cool 🤘
Everytime you see Ray all you see is 😃
:)))))
I've been looking at some emg dean deciever used on reverb...me wanty!!!🤘😜👍great demo as always Ray!!!
I have three Deceivers. They are KILLER

That riff had no business being that nasty lol🤘
Damn, those pickups love harmonics. I know you have been digging single coils lately but I think your style comes through great on actives.

Spicy!
Please compair this Gituar whit your other Dean Les Paul's! The Duncan SH5 VS. Fishman Fluence modern.

🤘
Tuning?
Pinch harmonic king
NOIS !!
B tone it man 🤘⛓️🤘⛓️
theses are fishman fluance pickups not emg
Yes, I said that 🙌
Homeboys high as f*ck in this video lol
Zakk Wylde and Mick Thomson envy your pinch harmonics.
More like Behold the Crown by After the Burial.
@@kambion After the Burial is so great!
The first riff gave me stinkface!
Not enough frets...anything with less then 24 frets isn't even a consideration for me....
getting some uh....Georgia O'Keefe vibes from those inlays if you catch my drift
Unpopular opinion but I think fishman cleans stink, but that’s not what you buy them for lol but this guitar sounds amazing once the distortion hits lmao
