Celestion v30 speaker ?

dry 1:04 tc 1:12 ep 1:22

Stupid video, it’s pretty obvious the compact disc sounds better than the cassette. If you think otherwise you’re trolling, lying or deaf. Aside from the inferior fidelity just the hiss alone would make me gouge my ears out lol

I got mine about a few weeks ago on a sweet deal from reverb ! Being installed in Ibanez Jem replica Lucite body with and EMG 81 and 85 both Zack Wylds pickups. And the SA will be in the middle. The guitar has the Tree of life with Blue Led lights up the fretboard. Will be tuned to B standard. And will be my only guitar in that tuning every other is in D standard and a Fender Strat in E flat. No more guitars for me after this! Lol and I’m content! And on this pickup it has a beautiful sound. Can’t wait !!

WTF WAS?

A few things to factor in : that Led Zeppelin tape was recorded using Dolby B noise reduction. That boom box does not have Dolby noise reduction. That makes the tape have more emphasis on the treble and more hiss than it should. Basically we are not hearing the tape the way it was intended to be heard. I'm sorry to say that also a boombox like that has a 💩tape mechanism. This will greatly affect the sound quality as far as background hiss and wow and flutter. Some high quality metal and Cro2 tapes have specs that are comparable to CDs if recorded and played back on a proper tape deck. Another thing to consider is how the original music was mastered in the studio. Was it on open reel tape or done digitally on a computer. Music like Zeppelin was mastered on open reel tape and this gives it that classic tape sound from the 60's and 70's. Imo, analog tape has warmth and depth. Digital CDs have sonic clarity and virtually no distortion. They both have their pros and cons. I like CDs for their clarity. I like tape for its warmth and almost alive sound. I basically bought CDs to have the best quality available as a master. Then I would make mix tapes on cassettes and open reel tape for my listening pleasure. I am still an doing this today in 2024 Edit : just wanted to that anyone still using tape and CDs in 2024 is good in my book 🍻.

The KEY Was Mike Henderson, the bass player!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I always thought tube amps sounded better than solid state…..retired a 59 Bassman for this amp. Great cleans!

I love EMG, been using them since I got my Jackson in 99. And I hope someday to be endorsed by them they will always be my favorite pickup.

Just ordered one man, it will be in the middle of an EMG81 and an EMG 85 :)

Tape hiss?lets talk about that also

Lets expand this conversation into all the phases of dolby noise reduction

Cassette sounds amazing... (I only listen to music on my phone with some decent Iem's. but Cassette deffinitely won here in my opinion. it just has a more... live feel. hard to describe, but clarity, separation. warmth. as you said)

What’s the first chord before the E? Could you give fret numbers for the voicing? Thx man,great video!

So I got about three minutes in and HAD to stop and praise you on such a well done comparison video; the best I’ve seen, at least in a long time! The back and forth shows the differences so well. Thank you 😊

Excellent playing. Surprisingly, on most of the riffs I did prefer the EMG's the fundamental note are coming across so clearly. I have an EMG 81 in my bridge which I love and the 89R in the neck. I usually leave the coil split on to get a similar tone to the SA's.

To my ear the EMG strat sounded dull and lifeless. Like the strings were in desperate need of changing and the standard single-coiled strat sounded like it had brand new strings. Very open and chimmy. Every example I preferred the standard single-coil by a lot. I just bought and had shipped out a preloaded EMG Steve Lukather pickguard and now I regret it.

Hello could you give the feet numbers for the chord you play at 2:10 on this video it’s Bb 11 with a foot on the d string,sorry I’m having trouble voicing it,thx man!

a guitarist from my band sent me this video saying he could hear differences. i listened with eyes closed on monitors and honestly... nothing. no difference whatsoever. so those of you who can hear the differences, may i ask you to tell me which frequencies i should listen for? i'm genuinely interested. by the way, i'd also be interested in a null test. record the guitar's di through let's say the most expensive cable, then start reamping using each one at a time. once recorded, combine all of them into pairs, flip the phase and let's "see" the differences.

Mal did play an E with a third in there, hitting strings 3 thru 6. A lot of the bass partx were also written by Mal.

This is a great video demonstration. Really appreciate it, and I'm going to pick one of these up! ty

I'll take a listen to that Allan Holdsworth CD or cassette. That sounds stunning!

Thank you so much for opening my eyes and please do more gospel stuff, much love ❤

Sounds to me the Cassette sounds waay more appreciated .

I have been jamming to Right Off (and other pieces from this Miles era) for 50 years. RO never loses its magic. It really is Miles & John dancing in the ring together.

Great review!

I have a 2004 toyota solara. it's got JBL sound system and it sounds great. the CD player broke, however, the tape player still works. some of the tapes sound really good, but you need to listen on a really good stereo system. When the tapes sound good, they sound better than CDs on any given day. I believe that it has a lot to do with sound engineering back in the day. I am kind of glad my CD player broke. Now I am dying to get some music on cassette....

The best is to have the two : put the ep booster after the overdrives to make them scream and add that sweet sparkle and the Spark before the overdrives for boost your signal and gain a fatter sound.

The problem with cassette is the quality drop over time

The best answer is .. GET AND THEM BOTH TOGETHER!! Use one as a preamp/preoverdrive boost and the the other as a post preamp boost. In my case I do this with a Super Clean (also by Xotic) preamp boost and an EP post preamp. In this case it gives me nice clean preamp boost tones and smooth boosted lead tones that aren't shrill and sweetened with the EP booster. There are other applications - point is two boosts are far better than just one its more like 10x the power versatility wise than just 2x it would seem on first thought.

you wouldn't see any reason to move it past 12 O-clock ??? then try them on a low gain amp with only One pre-amp tube, and no phase splitter. ( and that's when they are also "Always On" pedals, to gain and reduce the chance of micro-phonics, and you use something else for lead boost )

It's more about construction and durability like you said. How well the connections are soldered and gauge thickness and makeup of the wire used.

f***ing A. Edward! Josef would be proud. You ROCK dude!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This video is ggood

Cool man I’m gonna buy this amp. I played thru it once we rented it for our first ever gig. I didn’t know anything at the time , 6 years later I can really appreciate it now

Reel to reel is the purest form of audio seeing it mirrors the original master tapes that recordings are preserved on. Cassettes are a close 2nd because they are effectively "mini" reels.

Amazing! Just like Part 1. Is there any way to get a tab for all that?

This is brilliant! I have loved this piece since it first came out and I ever could imagine what or how he was playing this. I am grateful for you showing us. Best regards!

I read here some comments about how Malcolm waa underrated, how Angus was the best or the heart& soul, stamp of acdc...it's all low key true...but here's a fact - Angus and Bon were true showmen making the band attractive to watch live - what everybody rocked out to was Malcolm's riffs. Malcolm WAS Acca Dacca. First of all, he influenced and taught Angus to play guitar - 99% of acdc cover bands play Malcolm's riffs wrong...he always added little something to chords and riffs that made them sound real mean.....no band sounds like them for that reason alone

Why isn’t this guitar on the site

Nice, Dan!

Team cassette tape foreva

I get the music, but the b-flat,fret on the eight...i am not a musician,i just love music. Spare me of music theory, it's boring

Awesome speed

I've had a set of these in a box with wiring harness since the late 1980s or early 1990s. I've never installed them.

Great lesson! Thanks! One of my all time favorite tunes!

Hi Daniel, Very nice! Have you written the chord voicings that you’ve used out? If so can I buy a copy? As Mickey Baker says, Musically Yours..

I recently purchased a deck by Audiotronic (made in Japan in 1975) and I could not believe how full the sound was, I listened through decent headphones and it just blew me away.

My dad got a bryan adams cassette tape and i played it in his walkman, i can play it with two AA Batteries, since it was battery it was sound slower and low pitch and should need to power in DC adapter since it doesn't have so.
