A VULGAR DISPLAY OF EQ! - Master Effects EQ4H PRO - Chasing Dimebag's Tone
Beautiful guitar! but at that price point, it should have Stainless Steel frets, hipshot ibby hardtail and a better option of pickups
I found the pickups to be great imo. I do agree with you on the addition of stainless steel frets tho
I can’t find a single tutorial for this song
I offer lessons
Man I do the set up as soon as I get a new guitar in my hands, I would be lying if I were to say something about factory setup since it’s been years since last I experienced any of that! On the other hand, this was a really interesting video! Gonna be putting more attention next time I buy a new guitar!
If the coils are balanced, then it won't sound any different at all. If they're slightly unbalanced, the "hotter" coil pointed at a different point in the string scale *may* make it sound different.
So the Chinese dean from hell is as good as the USA one?
Yeah they felt pretty much identical.The stock Import model needs some of the hardware and electronics upgraded though.
Amm no closed
Great guitar player...but I never liked his lead tone.
Mr beast can shred! Wtf 💥💃
Pickups don't change the sound
I have this guitar bought it in 2005 .. paid like €1400 for it!! Still in fairly good nick.
They have been making EMG HZ H2’s forever. They aren’t proprietary to Alexi’s guitars. They are meant to act as an analog to the Jackson J50BC pickup that he used in his Jackson’s and match the values of that pickup very closely. While the ALX set has his name on it, Alexi never had the set installed in any of his guitars and they never came stock in any of his custom shop builds. Alexi used the EMG HZ H4, and later the H2 first with old Jackson electronics in his ESP’s up until the mid 2000’s when ESP developed the MM04, a clone of the active J-1000 circuit in his old Jackson’s. But EMG had no way to sell Alexi’s sound as half of it was an ESP product, so they created their own pickup and boost combination in order to sell a similar (not identical) product.
Short preview, of my review of DB effects. Would you want this on your pedal board. ua-cam.com/video/tcPpkq6X6R8/v-deo.html
I hate you for making this video. I have been trying to get one of these guitars for YEARS and got stood up for a purchase meet up. Huge middle finger if the price raises because of you
These are in production, and the prices will do whatever they will do regardless of my choice to make this video. Thanks for watching!
FRAGILE eh? Must be Italian
🤌🤌🤌 That's Amoré
@@EricMorettin 😂
Always buy from MAster Effects! DO NOT ORDER from DBEffects! DB Effects screwed up the wiring of THE AC POWER cord going into my pedal so it died as soon as I plugged it in, and never took ownership of the fact. Awful customer service, considering fucking up the colours for live and neutral is a massive deal. I was going to send it back and not make waves, but the last attitude laden email, and the vibe I get that they're money grabbing crooks, who I'm worried wouldn't refund me even if I sent it back, means it's war! Most arrogant people who won't own up to their mistake even when I have a multimeter on it with photos! So, there's a video coming soon, with screen shots of emails, to show you how bad it could be. You make up your own mind, but til then, just stop! Master Effects rule. DB Effects SUCK!!! Buy a Mimiq instead of the doubler!
DO NOT ORDER FLANGER/DOUBLER FROM DBEffects! They screwed up the wiring of THE AC POWER cord going into my pedal so it died as soon as I plugged it in, and never took ownership of the fact. It's a shame because the working ones sound awsome. But awful customer service, considering fucking up the colours for live and neutral is a massive deal. I was going to send it back and not make waves, but the last attitude laden email, , and the vibe I get that they're money grabbing crooks, who probably wouldn't refund me even if I sent it back, means it's war!

I used to work for Randall in the early 2000's and I'm guessing the speakers were made by Eminence. I know early Randall was trying to cop Marshall's tone so I think G12T75 or Greenbacks might be a better substitute but if you want Dime's tone you need Jaguars. I personally think Vintage 30's are the most consistent way to get studio-worthy tone. Doug Smith was the head of Randall at that time and alluded to the JCM800 2210 model being the inspiration for the early Randall heads.
Thanks for the insight! Yes I believe the Randall speakers were made by eminence, since the jags sound very close to the eminence legends. V30s can be great depending how broken in they are and what cab/grille cloth etc. But they're an industry standard for a reason. Very cool to know that early Randalls were based off JCM 800s, as I've heard that through reading forums and looking at schematics. Your insight is greatly appreciated!!
How accurate would you say the dime time pickups are to the pickups they're replicating? (I heard you say that the neck pickup in the stealth slime was like a bridge '59, but did you compare it to one?)
From what I remember, this was a dedicated neck pickup, but it had similar qualities to a 59 pickup if it was in the bridge
@@EricMorettin Alright, thanks for answering!
@@acactusnamedjosh708 you're welcome! DMT was warmer sounding since it was designed as a neck pickup and not a bridge pickup
This video was great as your videos always are. Question, is there a schematic anywhere for this setup that I can look at ?
Thanks! If you do some deep googling you may be able to find it. I thought I included it in this video, or the legit rig build video on my channel.
Ripping track eric
Thanks AJ
Nice edwards, had al128 arrowhead myself 2 years ago. Nice giutar, but: 1- fretboard is painted, yes it looks ultra black but try clean it with dunlop 01, you’l se what it realy looks like. 2- floyd 2000 is same as 1000 3000 etc, colour is different. 3- its kinda 1 trick pony, for cob stuff its grate, but if you try smth other… its just wrong. Fh2 lacks bass and has too much treble(makes it good for lower tunings). 4- e2 are japan-made, edwards are made in china and assembled in japan, e2 has ofr and overall better quality. 5- neck is not wide, just usual esp-ish (i’d say its rather narrow comparing to jackson rr). Overall grate guitar for the price but had to sell it(just cant stand floyds, fh2 is crap for anything other than cob).
Played a mahogany RG with these vs another (older, also mahogany) RG with the V7/V8 and they feel related. Both “sound like mahogany” in their guitars with a relaxed midrange and lots of clarity and a surplus of lows. Fusion Edges seem more refined for the same general sound. Some people think the V7/V8 are what Ibanez thought the JB/‘59 set should sound like. Someone said the bridge and neck Fusion Edge measure the same DCR, implying 2 of the same pickup. This may be the case, but also, the DiMarzio Evolution set is 2 pickups with the same (or, same-ish) DCR, and those are definitely 2 different pickups. So, I wouldn’t be so sure.
Hi. How much does it weigh?
This one felt like it was 8-10lbs
Play on McDuff... Play on 🤘😜👍💯 Jst got 1 of my HAD TO HAVS... Hot rodn my oldun now... Nice ax man!!
Thanks!
Not gonna lie. The blue/black without the lightning bolts looks tight
Hi Eric. Glad you’re enjoying the Dime , and I know you’re going to play the arse off it. Cheers man 🤘🏼
Nice video and very usefull informtaion, i m new to guitar and bought a used Harley Benton. The problem with my 3rd string at fret 13 if i press the string buzz, what is your advice, thank you.
Might have to adjust the neck or you may have a tall fret
@@EricMorettin Thank you
Hey Eric, I think if anyone could do this video idea and do it justice it would be you. Could you make a video about the different Dimebag neck pickups? I’ve never seen a comparison between the different models used, and I’m really curious as to the difference between the bill Lawrence he used in the neck in the early days, the super distortion and the 59’ bridge. Thanks for considering!
I really enjoyed this video sm Eric! And omg I think it's by far the best demo/review video I've ever seen of this guitar!
Hey thanks so much Carolyn I really appreciate that! You need one so we can match for a Bodom cover 👀
Where is the link to buy one?
Laiho (typo in your title)
I choose to bought it with the Seymour Duncan, like Alexi first used on his one.
I from New york, but I live in Japan. The official ESP store is close to my house. I know the guys at ESP. If anyone wants to do some business, contact me because I can totally get edwards, official ESP with letters of authentication etc. Just note, shipping is costly. Also, fire video. I will say that my edwards Pinky is also very cool. I played the ESP one too. There's a difference in feel, but none in sound. I think the ESP ones just are more detailed when they come to the frets and feel. Is it worth the extra 5000 USD for them ? If you want only if you can afford to spare the money, otherwise, you cant go wrong with edwards or E-II
But people talk shit about China hmmmmmmm
I bet a lot of people don't want to know where their brand new 8k OLED TV is made.
Hey E, I bought a Dime o flage bk in December and it’s such a joy to play!!! Made in Indonesia with V-shaped neck which I absolutely love!! 59 in the neck and Dimebucker in the bridge. I love it and I would love to get a Flame to go with it, but who wouldn’t right lol, can you turn me onto a Dime chat or community chat that I can connect with other Dime fans? Thx always for the vids E, I appreciate your hard work
Hey congrats on the new guitar! I've always wanted a newer dime o flage since they finally look true to Dime's original. There are many on Facebook! Just do a quick search and you'll be in luck
Hey thx for getting back to me E, and that’s another reason why I’m such a loyal fan of your channel and of your SICK guitar chops!! I wish we lived in the same town or country for that matter, because I would love to pick ur brain on everything Pantera and more importantly I would love to get to jam with you!! My wife and I live in North Carolina, and that’s so cool that we live thousands of miles apart but I’m still able to make contact with you!! Thx again E for all the time and hard work you put into making these vids!!
The EMGhz is a passive pickup. The pickup is the same in the alexi set. The pickup itself isnt a pickup designed for Alexi. Rather its the standard (and awesome) EMGHZ passive pickup with the gain boost/pre amp being the signature aspect of the set.
There are a few HZ pickups on EMGs website and Everytime I searched this specific model name, the Alexi guitars appeared without any extra info. Thanks for that heads up!
Hey E, can you tell me about any dime chat rooms or a community chat that I can get plugged into too? Thx man
There are a few on Facebook. If you search Dimebag you'll get most of them!
The strat sounds cleaner but they both sound different but in a good way
Yeah the strat has a more controlled low end which is probably from the body being routed for traditional strat electronics layout
Is there a reputable website to import these Edward’s guitars to Canada
Reverb or eBay are good since you can order direct from the store. There are some other brokerage companies that act as the middle person though for importing goods from Japan to Canada if you want to go that route. You will have to pay duty upon pickup though.
@@EricMorettin thanks man appreciate it
@@SlipperyDucky you're welcome!
EPIC ♥️♥️♥️♥️✌️✌️✌️✌️✌️
Got my Pinky from Kurosawa music in Japan a few months back. Its a beast. I love it! And yeah, it is cheaper to import to Canada than buy domestic.
Crazy how much of a value these guitars are eh?
@@EricMorettin They are an absolute treasure. All the same specs as the custom version and ESPs insane quality. How can one go wrong?...I have to ask, mine came with a gig bag. Now the care in the shipping was exceptional and it only took 2 days to get to me. Did they charge you extra for the hard case?
I really enjoyed your presentation throughout the video. Talking in review videos are very challenging to most of us and seems like you are a natural at it. Wishing you much success in the future with your channel 👍🏻
Are you still using it? Any impressions after a year+?
Yup! Works just as great as it did when I installed.
I didn't know about E2 being made alongside Edwards with Chinese CNC! That could literally blow the mind of so many Made In X elitists out there. However the "Floyd Rose 2000" is not a different bridge than the 1000, FRT2000 is just the code for a black hardware Floyd 1000. In case you're wondering, 1000 is chrome, 2000 is black, 3000 is gold, 4000 is nickel and 5000 is black nickel, 6000 is aged chrome and 7000 is aged bronze. FRT-S with any of these numbers is the code name of a Floyd Special :)
The guy that does the custom shop ESP finishes also does the E2 ones aswell
@@MagicCornFlakes I believe most people (including myself) simply think (or used to) that E2s are basically regular Japanese production models similar to Ibanez Prestige, so it's all pretty damn surprising to hear otherwise :D
i think E II is cncd in japan, while edwards and all the other sub brands and cheaper mij schecters are cncd in china, but everything gets finished in Japan in the esp factory.
Hell yea, wanted one of these since I first saw them
You need to get one bud. These absolutely rip
This is my second most desired guitar ever. The first one I got, an Ibanez Xiphos XPT700 2008 Chameleon! One day, the Pinky will be in my collection, I have faith! Love this video!
Those old Xiphos guitars were amazing! Thankfully you can still get these guitars to this day!
Well I know what I want as a next guitar. Great review, very informative!
Thanks! I'd buy another with full confidence
Can't really beat an Edwards. I have 3 (Anchang and 2 Crying Stars) in my collection and they are easily my top guitars. The worst thing about them is that once you get one you end up wanting more and more, especially considering how many models there are.
Yeah I'm legitimately blown away by how amazing these guitars are, especially for the price. As I said in the video, I'd just get another one based on the quality of my Alexi. I have totally confidence of buying an Edwards sight unseen at this point.
Cob was a slammin band,i loved are you dead yet cd,been wanting that cd and saw it on amazon and am not disappointed at all,george lynch said in a interview on youtube he's good when he was discussing newer guitarists
Yeah Alexi was a pioneer on the guitar for so many players and bands. Blending shred, classical, and variations of metal with keyboards was really ground breaking when they first appeared on the map.
