    If youd play like this in early 80s we wouldnt had George Lynch, but George Balulis.

    Dude I've been wanting to thank you for a while now for posting this vid. Before my early 90's carpal tunnel bout,I could play this close enough a metalhead could recognize it,but the only other person I had seen play it up till now was a Dr. Andy Gurley that teaches at University of Tennessee-Martin,and your's is a much crisper version :). Thanks a bunch,Tommy D.

    You have never played with George now have you???? This guy can do the moves but he has zero feeling and thats the main difference between experts and pretenders. Playing with feeling comes with an education in music, takes less than 15 seconds to separate the educated experts from the armature players.

    @mapleaxslinger125 I am willing to bet that the Distortion will sound VERY bright and bighting in maple. As I mentioned, I do not believe it is a sustain killer. I actually have a distortion in an alder guitar. To my ear, it really lacks note clarity and body. Just my opinion though. The Screamin Demon is a great midway point between something like the JB and the Distortion. Thanks for taking the time to write!

  • @gbalulis
    @gbalulis12 жыл бұрын

    @mapleaxslinger125 Sure it will work. Just know upfront htat the distortion is a very frothy sounding pickup - for my taste it's almost too much. I have a JB in my Craig Rundels Bones guitar, and Screamin' Demons in the Lynch models.I love the organic, round, wide open sound of the JB. The Demon is a bit more crisp and refined. If you like the "sucked backward through a jet engine", full-throttle distortion, the distortion's great for that.
