240p video to demonstrate tone - Priceless
Well, it was just my opinion. Glen has great chops, and has a nice collection of vintage gear. Just sayin' that the live tone in that room would have been amazingly awesome, and significantly different than what we hear on the YouTube vid.LOL! Well the video is 5+ years old.
I couldn't find any mention (in youtube comments) about how it was mic'ed.. are we hearing that close-mic on the bottom-right cone or a room mic further back by the camera? It sounds more like a room mic to me. It still gets the point across - that rig sounds awesome.
We're so used to hearing direct (USB to PC) clips of the Axe, and they sound great, but sometimes that open, airy, mic-in-the-room thing is cool too. Sometimes people post these 'room' clips and say "Can the Axe get this tone?" and nobody mentions the room factor. Not many guys make Axe-Fx clips by sticking a mic out in the room and playing their live rig.
