the overdriven thing annoys me but their demos of fuzzes, delays, reverbs and modulation pedals are usually decent. have you ever watched gearwire's very own dan augusto? after that you'll appreciate good demos much much more.
how he can make a tele into a marshall sound that horrible is beyond me.
i hadnt yet, but now i have to.
yes, some of their demos are OK, going by your rationale. room micd vids where the acoustic sound of the guitar competes with the signal, and so does the a/c, and mumbling guys off-camera are indeed not the shit.
ill give em a break. the holiest grail demo was a bit off though.

People know what strats and LPs sound like. For most people it's much more useful to hera a demo done with one of those, or a tele or whatever, than it is a jazzmaster.
ahhh, i just realised that the dude was hating on strats/les pauls.
unwise.
I wasn't hating on The Strat/Paul I've just heard them a lot more. Its nice to hear Jazzy's and Jags over the paul at points.

exactly why they're a good reference point for a demo.

got super tired of playing that line over and over
Thanks for for the posts.I went to my friends store and checked out HardWire.The spring reverb sound is very impressive.That is the sound I want so I think am going to get one of these.
