About Jackson:
Jackson began back in the late 1970s, when heavy music experienced a flamboyant and virtuosic resurgence in popularity and a small Southern California guitar repair shop became the epicenter of a new level of shred-approved excellence. Ever since then, Jackson guitars have been universally lauded as the metal guitars; the shred machines-highly original high-performance instruments of distinctive style and formidable substance. From metal’s chart-topping peaks to its darkest recesses, for discerning guitarists all over the globe, Jackson is the only way to go.

The dissonance between Wes' onstage appearance and his personality offstage is so hilarious
Not really, only on the surface. Off-stage, he's someone who takes his craft seriously. On-stage, he's exactly the same, the difference being that he's then engaged in said craft which includes showmanship and theatrics.
Onstage: 💀
Offstage: 🤓
Dichotomy?
Not gonna lie, he looks like a high-school math teacher off stage. 😂
@@2006Whippet I was going to say he looks like he owns a craft beer place in Portland, OR.
dude when is this guy gonna get his own signature guitar? Come on!!
Hell yeah
Had one with Yamaha for a little time
His signature is modifying the guitars amateurishly on purpose. Buy a Jackson do it yourself and you basically have a signature guitar. Add the "strap" he has on all of his guitars and no one can spot a difference. That's basically what he tells in EVERY video about his guitars. You can't just replicate that ...
If I’m totally honest it just kinda seems like he doesn’t care for it, no way any brand wouldn’t gladly offer a signature opportunity.
@@hansolo8080 Agreed.
Not a Bizkit guy generally but man I have always had a soft spot for Wes. Glad to see him looking, sounding, and feeling good. Keep rocking brother.
Nice wholesome comment, you're one of the good ones.
I wanna see Wes Borland, Crispin Glover, Buckethead, Patton, Elfman, Homme, Reznor, Keenan, Claypool, Gibby Haynes to sit down together
Wes is the prime example of an deeply underrated/overlooked guitrarero;
His unconventional style of playing, modding instruments, his creativity, sound, skill, his passion, sense for groove and epic riffs; _Give this man a (better some) signature-model(s) ..!_
Underrated and overlooked? You should go check those numbers again bro, the Bizkit is still huge
It's a little deeper than just "clicks on general LimpBizkit stuff".. at least he is appreciated in the inner circles of guitar players, and in the end this is all that matters
wtf is a guitarero?
Buenos Ding Dong Diddy Dias, Señor; Someone who plays an Instrument called "Guitar"
Yeah, I think this too. When people think of Limp Bizkit, they think of Fred Durst, his lyrics, his persona, the attitude. Only super fans and musicians ever look past the image of Bizkit, and hear Wes Borland's guitar.
For 15 years, I thought Limp Bizkit sucked. But as I matured as a musician and got better, I stumbled on Wes Borland. The dude is such a gifted writer.
I love the ''I don't have lyrics anymore, because I'm happy all the time." 😂😂 Awesome. Good to hear!
Some scrub turned away that V and it ended up being Wes Borland's favorite guitar.
That's the coolest example of "one man's trash is another man's treasure"
If I were one of the Jackson luthiers, I'd have taken so much pride in jumping on the sales computer and telling the customer "Hey, that guitar you thought was trash - thanks! Turns out Wes Borland loves it LOL"
The guy is a fine wine, just gets better with age.
That line came from me...... 😡
@@tymanngruter1808 Great minds think alike I suppose.
@sunshinesucks1355 🤣
I like that most of his guitars look old and beat up, and each one’s got a story to it. Glad he’s kept all of ‘em rather than just buying new ones. Severely underrated musician. Loved Black Light Burns.
he sold ALL of his ibanez and prs
Same.
You can’t have enough rig rundowns .
I watch these like people watch Netflix series.
I know right? I'm a drummer but I love listening to guitarists talk about their gear, it's intoxicating lol
@@cosmokramer1213 oh we indeed do love talking about our gear
That left hand Jackson is so great, his story of how he made it his own, makes it even better
Wasn’t mentioned, but I noticed that Wes does love that Seymour Duncan Invader bridge pickup
They're pretty decent in V shaped guitars.
@@DEJ915 Wait... Body shape affects electric guitar tone?
@@bassprofishe1549 yes
@@DEJ915not even a little bit
@@IllusionOfStrength I've got one in my michael amott V and karl sanders also uses them in his Vs you should try it out sometime if you have one. (hetfield also used it in his V to record MoP).
Sad to hear him say no more black light burns. Glad to hear he’s happy. I wouldn’t want him sad but godamn I loved that band. Never occurred to me it was sad or angry just deeply resonated with me
WHAT I MISSED THAT!???? He recorded 2 albums one with travis barker on drums. Its no more!???
@@wjveryzer7985 3:46
@ I didn’t know Travis did drums?! Wow. Well, two perfect albums I guess
Give it up to the rig man. He knows the stories on his guitars really well. He knew what guitars to hand over and which one to talk about. That’s the real mvp
Wes's creativity and laid back attitude never ceases to amaze me. The live rig setup is a sight to behold as well. Having seen this tour, the amp setup really pops in a live setting
He sounds awesome live. LB still sounds like a 20th Century rock band, a lot of shit that came later has a compressed/digital sound. Tones are all buried.
one of the Revolutionary guitarist in late 90's no one sounds like him using Delays and Reverb so good! him and Mike Einziger
Are we just going to gloss over "I can't do BLB anymore, I don't have lyrics, I am happy all the time now" Good for you Wes... genuinely happy to hear that.
see this what annoys me about wes. His ego. Ever since him and fred buried the hatchet and became friends, The bands output pretty much stopped. Like you cant have the BLB outlet anymore because your happy??? Why does that effect anything??? Like I hate that he thinks just because he made TWO records in a certain style, that he has to continue that way on the next which in my opinion defeats the entire point of ALBUMS which are snapshots in time. SAME exact problem with limp bizkit. Its like they feel like they HAVE to be stuck in the party band label and have just given up any hope or want to expand and be taken seriously. Which is why the recent EP (NO ITS NOT A RECORD) is such a jumbled mess. You can tell fred had no clue which direction to go. So just did all of them trying to satisfy everybody. What happened to NOT GIVING A F*C*? I always found that ironic as they always spoke of those we dont take crap attitude when FRED is actually as far as it gets from that. Freds insecurity is why the band has been stagnant since wes return in 2009. Such a shame. I just hope we at least one day get to hear all those albums they made but never put out.
I love the way Wes adds his personal touch to his guitars.
Wes is an Awesome round guitar player, creative and very clean when he's playing live. He's not an instagram guitarist. He does beautiful guitar melodies and tones. Respect!
How can anyone not love this guy?! Wes' enthusiasm for his guitars makes me smile.
Why love a guy who attacks fans online?
He keeps me 19 for ever. Him a Woodstock made me remember how much I loved guitars when I was a kid.
3:48 - I love how these Nu Metal guys have succeeded and can happily say “I’m not mad anymore”. Perfect storyline of that is Staind building their careers on anger, and when “So Far Away” tells the story of beating the slums to achieving happiness 🥲 It literally makes me emotional to consider all of their angst and then hear them say “I’m happy now”. God blessed those guys! All of them 🎉
So glad to see him mellow and happy. It’s a diff man now
Thank you Wes , growing old but when I hear you play. Back to being young. God Bless you and your family.
I have been following wes for years ever since he started. I get the stage persona, but when you see him do this, you can see how he thinks and feels with the gear. he is one of my favorite guitarists of all time.
As someone who's never played a guitar, i really appreciated this video. Wes is awesome at what he does!
wes boreland is the man!
(3:52) Always happy with a Jackson guitar in hand, Wes! Rock and roll! 🤘
He's such a character, iconic guitarist tooo
Such a chill dude and love his aesthetic with everything
Jackson is a Cult. Jackson is a Religion. Love this!
The complete lack of neck pickups makes me happy. The straps and strap hardware being bomb proof, happy. Large chunks missing from some, decades of stories, etc. Awesome.
I fucking LOVE Wes, man. Hope the next LB album has more of his guitar work. He's one of the most creative and unique players i've ever seen, love his personality aswell.
Drives me nuts bro. All I want is to hear WES, sam, and john make music. But freds constant insecurity and lack of direction ruins it.
@@wjveryzer7985 yeah, as a longtime LB fan who's been disappointed a thousand times for their delays in albums releases, i'm not holding my breath for a new album from these guys ever again, even tho Fred posted a IG story with Otto recording drums. that's the type of shit he used to do back in the Gold Cobra days on Twitter
I'm getting the feeling he doesn't like neck pickups.
The invader is a really heavy/bassy sounding pickup and when you remove the neck you remove some of the mud from the bridge , I'd do the same thing ...
LOL!
@@KevinCoblerOfficial why not just buy a guitar with only 1 pickup? 🙂
@jeffrivera6 sure no problem, having an extra hollow cavity in the neck takes the lower frequencies out just like a chambered les paul, the invader is a very bass heavy pickup.
@KevinCoblerOfficial Pretty sure thats not true. You wouldnt notice much of a difference.
The Rhodes is such an iconic guitar, got mine first and only when I was 15.
Would love to see Borland with his own guitar, I’d buy a second Jackson
Wes Borland seems like such a cool regular guy to hang out with. I love that he really appreciates these instruments for unique reasons. Just seems like a great guy.
Dude is just pure energy.
One of the most underrated guitarists ever. His work in limp bizkit is better than ALL nu-metal guitarists. And to be able to see his pragmatic approach to guitars is very refreshing.
And it’s cool that he is using pedals instead of modellers in this era too.
@@aenimic more then sure that you are gay, because that guy which replace him for a while near 2003 was much much better
i do think you understand what underrated means. They have been nominated for dozens and won 9 awards, with 40+million record sales. Thats well past underrated. Wes is a icon.
How can every single WELLLLL known and respected guitar player be the most underrated EVER? Such a moronic statement
...è solo la 135esima volta che rivedo questo video, non sono malato! :) :) :)
Wes is so cool.
I love Jackson guitars. I have 4, but I need more.
For me as a kid that had a GnR poster alongside a Run DMC poster. LB was the perfect music for me. Wes' musical brilliance is what drives the ship. Easily my favorite guitarist of all-time 🤘
Wes is one of the GOATs.
Met Wes in B'ham before a show and was the nicest guy, chatted about pedals for a little while. 10/10 would meet again.
Man he’s wrote some of the catchiest stuff I need to go back and listen again
J'adore Wes ... J'adore Jackson.
I am so stoked to see and hear Limp Bizkit next year!
It's not how they look but the sun he can make with them 💯
Wes is one of my favs as a musician!
Glad to hear that Wes is doing well and because he has so few problems he can do more project 👏 live that good life brother and the care of your family 😎👌
7:49 could be a signature pedal 😮😮😮
Борланд просто крут! Один из кайфовых гитаристов детства, на которых хочется быть похожим. Спасибо WES за всё что ты делаешь и делал вместе с Limp bizkit.
Always likes his approach.
Killer tone and note selection.
Thank you for this!! I did not make it to any Loserville shows. We need more Wes Borland everything!!!
Never played a bad jackson guitar. Love the san dimas body style.
I own a Jackson RR3 V in ivory finish and it's been my number one since I got it. It will never leave my possession. When I got divorced I told my wife she can have the house, furniture, everything except my RR V and RR Marshall amp, my tools so I could make a living and my dog. When I left, I fit all my possessions in my truck. I got the better end of the deal.
Im impressed with how well he plays with a mask on. No simple feat.
Not just a mask, he often wears pitch black lenses, full body paint, obstructive and hot costumes yet he stills rocks like it's his last. He's one of my guitar hero for sure
I love wes's no shïts given attitude and the insanity that goes into everything he does but always remains professional, extremely talented and most of all UNIQUE
This is so cool. Jackson was my one and only. Funny how that works.
how is it funny?
Say what you will but Wes is a pioneer.
We went to the same highschool, and that dude was straight up dorked out on guitars ,and gear all day long. He had that shit on him , like a blind person has a damn cane. I remember seeing him with a guitar ,more than seeing him without one. Like Linus from Charley brown. His guitar was his wooby. I remember it being a strat copy ... And it was red...
Totally underrated, dudes great.
A TRUE underrated player!
Man, Wes Borland rules.
Heck yeah I love Jackson guitars, a friend of mine got me into them around 2004 as well but I wasn’t able to get one until around 2013 and it was a RR that I still have. Replaced the pickups with SD JB 59 set and gotoh tuners awesome guitar
Wes is one of the greatest creatives in this business. Period.
we love u Wes ❤
Iconic guitarist 😎
My favorite band since I was 12 years old!!! Still...waiting for a signature RR or King V!!!!!
Great taste in guitars thanks for all the music my 2 pro series king v's are absolute keepers love Jackson guitars
I love the Ned Flanders vibe Wes has going on. This dude is a legend.
He's amazing!!!!!
I love Wes Borland, I have to buy a Jackson
Wes and his guitars -- while my guitar (fingers) gently weep, lol.
This guy got me into playing guitar. Thank you Wes💪❤️
Can't wait to buy his signature neck pickup!
Super cool dude and extremely underrated guitarist
With Wes, Rig rundown are always super cool !
Wes is so cool and creative, the one and only Wes Borland!
Wes has always been a fucking GENIUS! Awesome stuff!
Cool, love the Robbin Crosby King V's.
wes is the man. i wish i still had my CF7 ibby pedal
Wes is the glue for Limp and also the SINGLE most under rated guitar player ever. There are only TWO that play the strings as easily as we butter bread Wes and Matt from Muse.
Saw limp bizkit in Dallas on this tour. Glad they are still rocking out! Wes is personally one of my all time favorite guitarist and glad I got to see him own the stage back in august 🤘🏻
Ps, it’s awesome listening to him talk about all the history of his guitars.
0:38 - FYI Mike "M33" Tempesta was the guitarist for Powerman 5000 from 1998 to 2004.
I just asked that lol
@@MontaguStudios bonus tidbit...Mike's brother john was in white zombie for a few years
Came here to mention this! Glad to see someone else gave the shout out.
Another sht band .. lol birds of the feather flock together
@@willk.illyouii5583The singer of Powerman 5000 is Rob Zombie’s nephew iirc
I saw them in charollotte nc a few months ago and this rig sounded so good wes made it sound like we were channeling in from the cosmos
Wes is such a cool dude.
so underated ...complete legend
He's had that rerouted lefty V for a long time now
Wes is the reason I had a Roland JC-120 when I was in a band. Come to think of it my dirties were 5150 as well but I had the 5150 II. Not sure what model Wes is using. From silky chorusy cleans over to scooped high gain distortion will always be the way to go for me 🔥
Wes is truly the best !
my legend...my hero
most underrated axer ever
Amazing!!! Love Wes' gear!
I have a 1985 Roland JC120 and it's badass.
This guy's personality lmfaooooooo dude he's a trip and a half. Super funny guy.
Wes is a quality human being
Jackson Guitas UA-cam channel is absolutely fire 🔥
I think it's incredible that Wes is still one of my favorite guitarists despite me not really listening to the genre anymore. Just an awesome dude and great player. Cheers!
Wes might not be a virtuoso but he’s got the sound just right, has got great chops and he’s got the soul.
Thank you for this! 🙏
The gritty sound of three dollar bill is unmatched Wes is a genuine artist
Wes will probably turn every LB hater into a fan. Love his passion and earthy vibes.
