Ah yeah - I just watched it yesterday, as my Ziltoid special edition came in. Really cool video, and his rig is just fucking awesome!

 

[musickey]

Yeah good shit, The guy is funny

 

[Noumenon]

A little too much advertising maby?

 

[JeffTD]

Especially in that fact,that D'Addario sucks!
=)))))))))))))))))

To each his own - I love D'Addario and have never had a problem with them.


There was a ton of advertising going on, but since Devin hasn't been gigging/doesn't plan to for a bit, it's almost the only way to get himself seen using the product, and that's why he's endorsed - he advertises for them.

I just got my Ziltoid special edition a couple of days ago, and I am loving the album. Very Dev'ish in a good way!

I was a bit suprized of the rig video. The amount of advertising was kinda weird, but god damn his rig was killer! And the playing was

I have been gassing for a Dual Recto a lot lately, since the Single Recto I have doesen't seem to do it for me.

"hahaha I'm a whore"

 

[kaomao]

[kaomao]

"they look great too, thery're black, ergonomic and just beefy" lmao ahhaha

 

[JeffTD]

Hahaha it's actually "Just spiffy" - stupid saying in English... it's like what an old white guy would use instead of the word "cool."

 

[Jaymz]

Dont diss the english....bitch

 

[kaomao]

oh fuck I didn't get it ahahhaah

 

[Jaymz]

"Spiffy" is usually used in the way Devin used it, sarcy humor! If you said that in general convo people would look at you strangely.

 

[kaomao]

yeah understood what it means, I just didn't get when I saw the vid

 

[kev]

"little green bastard" lol

 

[Noumenon]

hey. anyone know what 7-string he's using? I know it's an ESP, but more?
Doesn't look like any of the Carpenter 7s. It's beautiful. G.A.S.

 

[Carcass29]

yeah...it's custom made Horizon, same as the Stef model with a different headstock.

So how does he control.......how he gets each tone from each head???
through the splitter?
like he said he uses the Dual recto for the low chunky and the Stiletto for the mid.....That radial splitter does that? you can pick what frequencies you want from each head?

No, the radial splitter just sends the guitar signal to both heads. He eq's them to taste, from there.

Loved the video. Being a Devin fanboy, he could probably fart in different keys on a cd and I would think it was genius. Also, his humor and personality give a light hearted feel to heavy music.
