Custom 4 High Gain video

[CTN]

Made this little thing when I inadvertently turned up the gain on my amp and was quite pleasantly surprised by how awesome the Custom 4 sounded.

Apologies for the crappy sound, I don't have my full recording setup well..set up.

Nice. I wish my amps glowed in the dark.

Lol, it didn't come that way. I got one of these PC tower lighting kits and put it in the headshell, attached to a battery holder and replaced the slider switch with a mini-toggle mounted on a clear acrylic front baffle.

I like it quite a bit, it's like the lower output more PAF-ish version of the C8.

Thanks! Nope they're connected to a battery pack so I can switch the light on/off at will. 98% of the time, they're off. I figured that it would get kind of obnoxious having these glaring blue lights on every time I switched the amp on, so this way, I can turn them on for really dark stages and what not so i can see the knobs. Also, the illumination of the t00bz is a bonus.

Great playing (really liked that first riff) and tone but I couldn't watch the video... the videos that skip like that mess with my head haha.

Re: Custom 4 High Gain video

thanks bros.

Sometime this week when I have some time I think I'll do a full clean/breaking up/overdriven/distorted/spewing-hellfire type demo. It's a really nice pickup.

lol ya, I hear ya Andrew...that was shot with my computer's crappy webcam. For the next one I'll use my actual camera that looks and (I think) sounds better.
