Amazing video. I've got the PRS HDRX20, and don't think it gets the love it deserves on YouTube. Fantastic demonstration of what it is capable of.

[jordiumethar]

an exceptional job...very well done, Jay. A lot of research to achieve this great sound

[Brianvhbp]

Awsome job really like the EVH Frankenstein you built you have great insight on how to convert stuff you find to duplicate what you need!!

[Axman]

+++ You became a SOUNDPROFESSOR, nailing it+++

[robertandrade]

Great job Jay! I thought the PRS nailed it best except on Ain't Talkin Bout Love. I think your Custom 69 sounded best on that one. Cool comparison!

[Waycooljr]

I’m going to say it again @JayGuitar has to be one of the nicest person you could probably ever meet . And I love that it’s family friendly. My kids can lay here with me beside the couch and then I have to worry about anything being said that’s not appropriate for families to watch . Especially with two autistic children one of them being speech delayed and only can say a few words so you don’t them learning bad words . Thankfully this Chanel is awesome but family friendly

I would love to see a video like this for George Lynch tones.

[jeffallen]

Been getting a lot of scratching from your voice mic the last few videos. Not sure if you noticed that or not Jay.

Something is missing in the PRS sound; maybe it's a lower mid frequency; maybe it's the fact that it doesn't sound like it's on the edge of insanity. The other two amps sound better I think because they seem to sustain better and that makes them a little bit out of control. The flanger sound on Ain't Talking' 'Bout Love wasn't quite right. What are you using for a flanger? Sounds good though. Nobody will ever be able to reproduce Eddie's sound exactly because there are too many variables. Eddie's way of playing being the biggest one.

You blew the Eddie wannabe’s out of the water.
I don’t think it matters where I set my amp, or what make I use I still sound like Bad News on a good night.
it’s your own natural ability I’m hearing 😊🙌🤧😢
