I don't watch many of these sort of videos all the way through but I enjoyed this, great to hear him play some classic riffs through their respective distortions to understand the evolutions
Boss Metal Zone!
Enjoyable vid.
The older I get, the more disappointed in myself I become.

Dan & Mick's reactions towards the end are priceless, I'm sure Mick even looked a bit emotional at a few points ?!
Interesting how Dan's Tele became far too bright after he had big fretwire fitted. I'd never considered that that might happen. Glad I went with Grant's suggestion.
I watched a PRS doco where the man himself talked about using superglue on the frets that was non-water-based. He said it didn't make sense to spend all that time and trouble getting the water out of the wood only to pour it back in with the glue. Then I watch the above video and the guy's actually soaking the fretboard prior to hammering in the frets. After forty-odd years I'm sure this bloke knows what he's doing but it just looks wrong.

Working my way through the video when I get the chance. Interesting when he talks about the strat and adjusting the fret bevel as you go up the fretboard to get a bit more room at the dusty end. I think Grant did something similar to get more room on the 335(??) he refretted.
