Louis, you're a terrible guitarist, what songs did you play when you were younger? Hahaha! Literally the most popular songs of the day! Pre-Polyphia and Pre-Tosin, when you didn't need a nine string!

If you want brutal tunes that will make you laugh out loud bc it's coming from a pedal, you NEED to get this Purple Nightmare Preamp pedal! It's SHOCKING how great this pedal is, driven by two preamp tubes and a built-in overdrive with presence and resonance options, this is a MUST have for touring musicians, studio work or guys like me who appreciate great heavy tones! This thing is crazy!! Ha...

I've paired my Quad cortex with the 2-ninety.....super monstery
Y'all laugh if you want, but I just can't bring myself to use something with the devils name on it. That kind of 💩 is nothing to mess with.
@bretttrommler756 To be honest, it's all in your head. Satan is a man-made concept, it doesn't really exist. So don't fret about names and silliness that was created 2,000 years ago. We know more now than ever before, like the fact that virgins can't possibly be pregnant. They're virgins, right? Right? :)
Great sound
That is some tone right there.
All content creators and their slaveo'wers hate EMGs? but most metal and non-metal musicians in this crap world use them live and in recording section. Remember David Gilmour, Zakk Wylde, Kirk Hammett and your favorite band use them too, so al carajo...
Great looking ESP. I wish AMM would make the mods public since the modding service for these has been taken off the page. These amps suffer from a design flaw in the phase inverter section, so maybe that's why no tech wants to touch these anymore.
Jesus Christ!! Six years ago!! My beard is nearly all white today!! June 2024!!
Bro, how do you think this pedal will perform to push and boost a Ceres KSR? sorry, my english is bad haha
Just discovering this vid now. My dad had one when I was growing up and I played it all through my childhood. Just found one yesterday on marketplace and had to have it🤟🏼🤟🏼 I’ve always loved how they sound.
I'm glad you have one now! Your dad is going to love playing it again! You two can both crush it together!!
Great amp. I've had the pleasure of playing this and a Nitro at a friend's studio years ago. I preferred the Nitro at the time but both are great. A better clean channel and they'd be perfect.
I don’t like that pedal either. To my ears it sounds bland, scooped, fizzy. Couldn’t get rid of it fast enough
Ooof not sure if it's the camera mic but that tone is screeching in a bad way. Yikes.
It's the pickups that were awful AF on this one.
@@louistorresdang. Too bad. I always wondered about these. Seems everyone seems to dislike them. They look cool. I'll stick to my LTD Jackson and schecters etc. thanks for the feedback
Have you had any noise issues? I heard that the mooer baby bomb is a little noisy.
88 or 87 I was about 17 years old. Macalpine, Vai, Uli Jon Roth, Gary Moore, lynch and Malmsteen were the order of the day. I walked into 48th Street Custom. Picked up a black strat style axe. Reversed Jackson style headstock. All black Hardware, black EMG humbuckers, dark Rosewood fingerboard, Floyd Rose tremolo, SUPER low action. It was absolutely the sweetest most Flawless instrument my hands have ever touched. Just a fantasy. It was $800, no way I could afford it at the time. It was just a dream and I was never the same after experiencing that. I'm no longer in New York City, not even in the country but I sometimes wondered if that shop is still there. I understand they were "acquired" by Sam Ash. To this day I dream of owning an instrument like that one masterpiece I tried. Edit* After doing a little research I discovered that their best guitars were made by a young guy (about 20) named Yoshi Kikuchi who had a close relationship with ESP. Makes sense because the closest thing to that Fantasy Axe I ever found was an ESP. Hey Yoshi, I hope you're still making guitars. Maybe someday I'll have the honor of owning one.

I've got the nice Levy's 4" padded strap and I agree... the quality is not bad but it's substandard leather. The comfort is there though and for me, that's what matters. I've got a nice buffalo leather strap I got from a guy on Etsy and it's great but not really much padding (which I need) and a crazy comfortable Lekato strap but it's not leather. Tomorrow my Anthology Shadowlands strap arrives (along with the $22 extension tongue, because Explorer) and I'm hyped to see what nearly $200 worth of leather strap looks, feels and smells like. I'm a huge leather snob though. Belts and a watch strap from Popov leather, paid extra for real leather in the cars, paid extra for the Heart of the hide baseball glove, etc. The smell is always the dead giveaway on the quality. Edit: I don't trust the dunlop straplocks. I've had a couple fail and when they fail, the guitar falls. The Schaller locks at least have the U channel that the stud sits in so even if it fails to lock, you still have the strap peg resting in the U shaped locking area but I don't use those either. I use those football shaped strap pegs that D'Addario make. Easy on and easy off but nearly impossible to accidentally come off due to their shape. Edit 2: I'm an idiot. I have had an Anthology "The Reticent" strap since 2019 but it's on my acoustic so I don't use it all that much. Very good strap too. I've trashed all my cheap straps.
Thank you
I just stumbled on the "Playtech" GPA 100 on Ebay that seems to be set up for U.S. voltage. It seems to be the same pedal.
fuck this guy hahah he doesnt even know how to play guitar.
Cool vid man! Here in France you can grab one for 90/100 US dollars...🤩 Try also the boss gt5 (which was the floorboard version of the gx 700). Powerful units!
The overall built quality and feel of ESP will always be better than LTD. I remember playing EC-1000 when I had a chance and got to compare it with a standard series Eclipse.. The EC felt exactly like the price tag and I just couldn't play it. After owning a number of high end ESPs (KH2, 2001 USA MH Custom, Explorer, M2 and playing other like KH1, Zorlad, KH2 Vintage, RZK) the ESP is just miles above on every aspect. My brother has a standard series M2 and it felt nothing like my bolt on KH2, while they are both ESP. LTD are great for the money but comparing them with ESP is giving them a lot more credit than they should have. Either way, great video and as while as you enjoy it, that is what matters!
couple years ago I got the LTD MH-350FR. VERY unknown guitar but plays fucking amazing. It's a 700 dollar guitar but plays better than most Ernie Ball Majesty's I've tried. ESP is truly a great company
That’s awesome. I can’t wait to be wireless again. I just bought mine a week ago. Brand new in a box. It’s on its way. Will be here by Friday line 6 has done a great job on Cordless 😎👊🏻💯👍🏻 I got the G 50
You're going to love it so much!! It's a really great system and yeah man, I'm excited for you to get back to wireless again! :)
Thank you can confirm this works!
Thousands have confirmed my video, except Mercedes Benz, who still act like there isn't an issue. Hahaha! Cheers from New York!
Gnarly! I'm going to get one. 🤘
Get the newest model! You'll love it!!
@@louistorres , will do, brother! 👍
Black winter for me but I'm into that swedish metal stuff tuned in Baritone. But as for riffs, 4:45-4:55 is my favorite. Would like to hear that with the black winter pickup.
Why not get 2 and 2 112 cabs and go stereo !
Man, as a kid, I used to love the old ADA split 2x12 cabinets that you would place side by side.
@@louistorres yea and the Crate 412s that you could split sides and run stereo. You've never played guitar until you play in Stereo !
I own an LTD EX-400 and LTD V-401 and they are both KILLER guitars.
You can absolutely use this with ANY GUITAR AMPLIFIER. DUDE,... Do some research, huh? Maybe learn like...atleast say, I don't know...take 3 things, right...then, atleast you'll have a little footing. People out here depend on these videos Brethren. Not Scolding you...just, do better Sir.
Guys like you, who don't do anything, are the reason I fucking hate UA-cam. Bunch of whinny men who complain more than teenagers. Why don't you do your own research and figure things out yourself?! How about them apples? SMH. You're bitching about some fucking transistor that's 17 years old! Shut up and go buy a Kemper. SMH.
People depend on these videos?! What are you talking about!!!? Literally , go do your own research and figure things out instead of always taking the shortcut.
How well does it stay in tune? Most guitar reviews leave that detail out.
I love guitars with a Floyd Rose or Kahlers. That being said, to override any potential for going out of tune of these ECs, when I put new strings, I will stretch them at various points, so the stretch is more than it should be. That way, when I bend, they go right back to normal. As long as you stretch your strings, you'll be fine. That's what I did with my old Gibson Les Pauls, my PRS customs and these EC1000s. You'll love them. Hope this helps. :)
🔥🤘🏻🔥
Picking up a Diavlo 100 this weekend... I already have a VHT FB 4x12, which I have heard you rave about. Have you ever paired the Diavlo with the FB412?
Throw a sick boost on the Diavlo 100 and lower the treble. It's a monster!! Funny enough, because the Diavlo is farther way from my VHT FB412, I honestly don't think I've paired the two BUT they are BOTH amazing!! What speakers are in your VHT? :) Congratulations on the Randall!!
@louistorres still has the P50E loaded in it. I'm thinking of swapping 2 out for maybe Eminence DV77... Hopefully they blend well with the P50E
My favorite amp for my death metal sound. Cuts through a mix while sounding absolutely vicious
I only use esp guitars. My first one I bought was a kh202.
I just got a TSL 60 and im using it with a dispatch master pedal. The sound and harmonics sort of quality of the clean channel is everything i always wanted. If i had a DSL 50 to compare it to the clean channel specifically I would love that. I highly highly recommend the TSL60 to the point where i dont want to recommend it because im selfish. As a home pedal platform its absolutely perfect.
Your the only one that nailed it. TSL for home/studio DSL for live.
Of course you have one of these lmao…. should’ve picked your brain on it, I just ordered one
Bro, YOU'VE BEEN TO MY HOUSE!! I have everything!! Well, not really, but it's a good amount! :) Great playing in the video too, bro! You have such a great style of playing.
Had a TSL 100 for a while. All 3 channels had a really distinct flavor. The yellow mode was awesome. Kinda made me think of Van Halen, and Kill ‘Em All. The red mode was savage. Everyone hates on these amps because of the top end. But when you’re in a band mix. That’s the exact reason why they sound killer.
Good point. Marshalls were created for this very reason
Did you set your Pyle to 220 or 240 input voltage? I have the exact same equipment as you and don’t want to blow anything up accidentally. Great review man!
Thanks brother!! I set the Pyle to 220.
Okay, question for all the other Ceres fans. I just purchased a used KSR Ceres. I was told it was the first edition from 2020 I believe. So, my question is obvious... Is there a huge difference between my supposed first edition Ceres and the newer versions?
Thank you! 2017 E Class. Worked like a charm!!
I'm so glad you were able to find my episode and were back up and running with your beautiful E class!! Cheers from Saratoga Springs!! :)
I just bought a SYN-1 and Engl Powerball and Bogner Uberschall modules. I am currently running it through a SD Powerstage 700 into my 2x12 cab. Sounds killer so far.
Bro, the Uberschall sounds better than my Uberschall Rev Blue! If you get the chance, grab the KSR PA50!! It's a monster with the SYN1!! :)
@louistorres I've just picked one up off Reverb because of your comment (and Ola is always using them, too). Thanks for the recommendation.
Amazing wall of sound.
Thanks brother! It's a love for tone. :) If only this shit were cheaper!! Lol
Why is the sound only on the left channel?
Raise the volume on your right speaker.
@@louistorres It was only for the dialogue… weird. The rest was fine.
If you're a broke boy, just say so
you didnt say anything about the axe..
It's really good. :)
@@louistorres yeah but I thought the video was about the guitar.. becouse of the title in the video..
I run this in the front of my DSL 1watt, and it rocks. 2x12 mesa rectifier cab.
I didn't like it through the loop on the DSL1, it lost all it high gain sound.
Who did your inlays?
Bought them online. They are real mother of pearl inlays but thin enough that they are a sticker. I bought them from a dude in China a few years ago in ebay.
Wait. He don't even have one to demo. WHAT A DICK
