    How do they sound when compared to the standard set of p90s? Do they actually have the raw P90 sound or are they just a little bit dull and less brilliant like is common with a lot of the Fender noises stuff?

    • @ZackSeifMusic
      @ZackSeifMusic 4 дні тому

      Honestly, it's not supposed to be that noticeable, if at all. It's really supposed to be more of a durability longevity thing, as well as a feel thing. For the people who claim that stainless steel frets sound too bright compared to nickel, you can literally just turn down the treble on your amp or roll back the tone knob to compensate. That's why I believe every guitar should has stainless steel frets. Especially these days you see import guitars around $500-$1000 have them, so there's no excuse for a $4000 guitar not to have them when they are better.

    It is what it is. It is small and that is all what it is. You can crank up the bass volume knobs on the amp and EQ in the control app. The effects are in the software, hence, they are not as good as the actual pedals so you know what to expect. For a $100, an amp about the size of an effect pedal, that’s all it can do. For me it serves its purpose for a tiny amp.

    I started playing clubs in the 80's. Then later I played professionally in the metal scene. I eventually got out of it but I still play and record now. I will say $15,000 - $30,000 a year playing gigs in today's economy is nothing. Even $50,000 a year is nothing in 2024. If you live by yourself, have no kids, don't own a house, then you can get by with that amount. Different world these days. I had a blast when I played professionally, I played all originals ( I hate playing covers), made some decent money, met very cool people, saw cool places, partied hard, spent a lot of time with women. Different era. It's nothing like it used to be. Good luck.

When I was in a covers band we got max £200 per person so again, nice work on that front.

    kudos Zack on getting to this point, it's ultimately a lot of work and time investment but to do things with guitar for a living has been your goal from the start and that can only feel extremely rewarding i went a slightly different path after music school, decided to work in music and always create /play music around that, I've been a promoter in Luxembourg now for over 15 years organising stuff from Meshuggah, Bonobo, Snarky Puppy to Dream Theater, RHCP, Slipknot etc.. it's been a crazy road but ultimately the balance i wanted in life and for now can't see myself doing anything else great to see how far you've come in any case, keep up the good work 🙌

    I did this back in the 80s I was thinking 500 a night then just like you are now so it was much more lucrative back then. and I didn’t travel up and down East Coast. It was just all the New Jersey part of New York part of Pennsylvania hour to an hour and a half tops sometimes out in Long Island. weddings are good money, but that was it. I would much rather play in a band making $50 in a bar then play a wedding again. Every now and then I would hook up with some rich girl from a wedding and that was always good. But let’s face it weddings are lame your best bet become a mailman or get some kind of job like that and continue to do this on the side become a teacher. That’s what I did and I still do that stuff on the side. You can make some good money and then make all your extra cash playing . you’re doing it the hard way and that’s only good when you’re young .hit 40-45 and you don’t have a job and you don’t have stable Good money coming in no girl is going to give you the time of day. Let alone a bank for a car or house loan you can forget about those so be smart, go back to school become a teacher or mailman and you’ll have the best of both worlds

    Those 100 dollar bar gigs really make sense as opposed to making 3-400 bucks 4+ hours away. I’ve done both and really I’d rather just play close by for less than spend all day on the road.

    • @ZackSeifMusic
      @ZackSeifMusic 9 днів тому

      It's definitely a give and take for sure. Typically the agency gig will give you more dates and get you infront of more people which is nice to get the "touring experience" without being away for more than a weekend. It can help grow your brand and get you into new markets, and sometimes it still pays more at the end of the day. But it does cost money and requires another level of commitment, and you better be ready to invest into your equipment, live show (tracks, lights, video etc.) and make sure every night is a good night if you want to get invited back.

It was definitely no fun driving home at 2am nodding off and not even close to where I was going. I can’t say I’d want to do that again over just playing low stress low expectation local shows. We run our own sound and get typically 150-200 a man. Is it bottom feeding? Probably. Is it smarter to do? Up for debate and really goals depending.
