I can't speak to specific comparisons because I've never played the new Epiphones, but I've played quite a few of those mid-2000's Les Paul Studios that are definitely worth owning and gigging with. Plus they are routinely going under $1,500 on the used market. I saw one even on the Guitar Center used site going for $929 for a gloss finish in ebony. I think if you are about spec and looks, you may want to go with the Epiphone but if you're trying to save money and still get a giggable guitar, used Studio's are still the way to go.

funny how you hide the headstock, if you were playing a gibson, the headstock would be the focal point. we are so indoctrinated.

These UA-cam thumbnails actively drop our IQs, I swear. I think I've seen like 50 videos in the last month with some clickbait title and someone holding a product with their thumb pointing down. I'm assuming it has something to do with the algorithms that UA-cam uses that makes people act like a bunch of mindless drones?

G'day Steve. Hi from Australia. On the fence with buying one of these. In Aussie dollars these are F%&king expensive!! I've been holding out since last year and still using pedals and amp for covers gigs. Do you use in ears or foldback monitor while you're gigging??? Do I need to buy one of these?? Love your channel. Thanks, Mark.

what's the point of having effects in a guitar?

Love that Heritage Guitar Steve. Those two guitars of yours are my Favorites. Love Gator Cases.

thanks for your great help. I AM PLAYING FRETLSS BASS GUITAR AND PLEASE I NEED AT MOMENT INFO REGARDING HOW TO SET THE STOMP XL FOR LOOKING AT BEST ON THESCREEN SEEING THE NOTE I AM PLAYING PRACTISING EVERYDAY RESPECTFULLY THANKS AGAIN ANGELO MIRALDI NAPOLI-ITALY

Buy an EARLY ( not recent with cut away neck heel) Vintage brand PGGM that comes with reversed neck pick up/ out of phase sound. Prefer it to my actual Les Paul.

what Uber is that thing fitting in? I guess you can strap it to the roof.

RBX is good for me. If I'm flying I'll use my individual Gator/Fender/SKB plastic cases and carry them individually with gate checks, but if I'm staying in the PNW the RBX is an amazing product.

We all know the origin of this clip. Hehehe! 😉

Really happy I went with the reunion blue case for the typical electric guitars, but I wish it fit a typical semi hollow. I might try the gator acoustic/electric and see if that works for me instead.

I just turn off the drive pedals and it cleans right up!

I have a double gig bag by gator as well, extremely well made, I’ve been using it for 5 years, traveling all around the world (I work on cruise ships as musician) and never had a problem. Then last year I was getting a flight from London to Portugal and the airline (TAP) made me check my guitar at my gate 15min before flying. It was the most stressful situation ever! I was worried because of my Les Paul. I took videos in case my guitars get damaged. Thankfully they were fine. The gator double gig bag did a wonderful job protecting them! Now I made a custom gig bag for only one guitar but nowadays the airlines are getting more & more strict so I’ll definitely consider getting one of that vault and travel safe with my guitars. Cheers ⚡️🎸

Couldn't resist, could you!😂😂😂

Would be a really stupid marketing if Kemper would sell the Player with the same FXs and Bells and Whistles as the Stage or Rack or Toaster. Kemper would counteract its entire product line. It's logical that the player is a slimmed down version of its big brothers and therefore represents a device that wants to reach a very specific target group. The Kemper profiles have been "state of the art" in most studios and among musicians for years and the player reproduces these presets great, with fewer effects, but that's more than enough for a lot of people. For those who don't have enough, they have to resort to other Kemper products or other brands anyway.

If you are the tech-y type this is wonderful, but if you struggle with that you can easily ruin your show; so many things can go wrong on the spot..so watch out

I’m ok with 2 cases. On the fly gigs I just bring a hardtail and spare strings. Digitech drop for alt tunings. I have deheadstocked a gibson, but that was on stage

For a second I thought you were combining guitar with exercise. Trail hike farmers carry with guitars. Ha.

Yup yup - I have the gator dual electric bag - you are right - that thing rocks carrying around town! such a time savor to be able to throw it on your back and have both hands free.

I’ve been using mine for 6 months now. I love this vault!!! Hoping Gator will have more configurations like basses, 335’s and acoustics.

Are you able to turn the left guitar around without the headstocks making contact?

Can damage nitro?

Yes sir I got my Mini Vault a few months back and love it!

Years ago I got tired of carrying 3 guitar cases and a guitar stand. I bought a 3 guitar vault from Rock Case. Best investment I've ever made. Now I don't have to worry about where I'm going to store my guitar cases, or where I can put the guitar stand. I just wheel this case on stage and open it up. My straps and whammy bars are all on the guitars ready to go. And the lid is padded so it makes a great guitar work station if you lay it flat.

Any idea if this would fit an ESP Arrow?

Each instrument should have its own retention strap and not share what appears to lose bungie material. imo

Looks like a well thought out product. With the built-in guitar stand feature, might even be useful for just storing guitars at home.

the presets are junk as usual... it really comes alive when you load in caps and irs

If you don't care about a nitro finish, just get a used Epiphone 2020 Inspired by Gibson Les Paul. I have a Gibson LP but recently got a 2020 Epiphone Les Paul Custom for £360. After a set up and pickup change (Tonerider AC2) it sounds just as good as my Gibson. #JustSaying

Hey Steve - thanks for all the help! Question - If XLR is set to mic and going to FOH is there a way to control the level of that signal with the setup you use? Would FOH always be happy with mic level? I'm going to use my Helix live for the first time next Friday. I'll be using your setup with an FRFR on stage for me and XLR out to FOH.

Looks a bit flimsy and unstable to me tbh

how are things?. bravo. total unusual masterpiece!have a good one!

I have another brand named ENKI. Very strong and reliable It was expensive but worthy

I'd love to see a comparison between this case and the Enki cases.

That looks like a great solution for flying. Gator makes some great stuff. I've been using a double gig bag for a couple of years now for my JTV-59 and JTV-69. Big benefit for me is that I can strap it on my back and I can then carry my Helix in it's backpack like luggage and my gig bag with exp pedal and other accessories and I can get it all in one trip. And the zip up on the gig bag is great for smaller accessories and my tablet.

Hey if they work for you, cool. But I have used cases for years, although I travel much less these days. I’ve had cases tumble down a flight of stairs a couple of times and been banged around with no damage. But sure it can happen. I have walked long distances with two guitars in cases and survived. Again YMMV, and that’s cool Now that double case thing is cool. If I had a current use for it, I would check it out, especially for the stand part.

Love your work Steve, moved my rig to the Tone Master Pro recently and really been loving it. Your vids are very helpful to people that are considering the switch from tubes, appreciate it! But damn man that thing looked shaky AF when you were talking about using it for a stand, even when you magnetized the back. At 500+ I’d be so bummed if my Les Paul’s headstock broke…again lol. Is there any way you could make a short or something that shows that thing being sturdy?

This was very helpful, thank you!

A is the real amp. B sound compressed

$1,500 is insane. It should be $800-$900 tops.

Hi! I'm kinda new to guitar playing and all this pedal stuff... recently got the ToneX and I absolutely LOVE it! But I'm still in need of some effects so I'm wondering, what the best addition to the ToneX is. Is the HX Effects in combination with the ToneX a good move?

Always set gain at atage volume

In here sound really good. Just like my Line6 nano pod

"real" rig 😂😂

Have you tried the Belle? How you compare them?

He actually did…

After listening to your rundown of the guitar..then hearing you mention the price, I immedately got up to go and grab my credit card. But then I remembered something...I'm lefthanded. Yup..I am so confident that this model won't be offered in a lefty version that I'm not even going to bother looking. The curse strikes again. hehe.

Wich One has no latency changing a tube amp channels using midi???
