    Yep, as expected, those vintage APH1's NAIL the AFD and UYI tones! Excellent video man!
  • @x86Jadedx
    Dude you completely mastered it!!! I was so floored during that 2:50 middle run part of DTJ solo!!! So killer, I felt like I was being moved by the master himself - the man with the top hat. Great stuff! Can’t wait to watch the rest of the video lol
  • @meep231_
    Top tier playing and tone as always. Great vid!
  • @PhilRocks
    I like how you also changed the knobs and toggle switch to match the real one 😀 I don't regret changing Victoria's original pickup to new APH1s.
  • @guidlines
    I'm just gonna save this so I can listen to some great guitar whenever I want 🤘
  • @Kevvzi
    What difference do you hear yourself? Thanks for the upload Noah. Sounds totally awesome as always! iii]; )'
  • @jamesboyd2610
    Camera quality is great on this! What did you use to record the video? Cheers!
  • Cool video! How much does the guitar itself contribute to the tones? I can hear more warmth and sustain in the 86 3piece top LP
  • @JoelDucote
    The 86 was a bit more "stringy" sounding. Both sound great.
  • @guitarlair
    Killer!! Are you using any pedal with the JCM studio like A boss EQ or Qzone? or is it just the JCM800 with the hotmod?
  • @gerrydaly5409
    That 1986 pickup has an amazing tone, the 2021 sounds a little too bright
