    "There's No Home For You Here" is a great track from Elephant.
    My favourite White Stripes album is probably White Blood Cells. A lot of the tracks are like alternate versions of Elephant tracks.
    "Black Math" is quite similar to "Fell In Love With A Girl"; "There's No Home For You Here" and "Dead Leaves On The Dirty Ground" also use a similar riff. The two records compliment each other really well.

    • @stuartchapman5171
      @stuartchapman5171 Год назад +1

      It's a great circuit. Easy to build and if like me you use pedals for sounds capes and it's a great boost for quiet devices. Its also a pre curser to the Big Muff, so it kind of fits in todays show. You can add a knob to bring in more dirt very easily, this could be a toggle though to keep the one knob beauty.

    Hii. I really enjoy your channel. I love you company's ethos. You really do hit the target.
    I've bought boutique, bought vintage, and even gone diy.
    Truth for me is that your gear works and is unlikely to break in a shart of plastic (at worst) or have a stomp fail or knob crackly hissy (unlikely but more likely 😁)
    Anyways, apart from the Crybaby, my current pedal setup doesn't have anything that cost more than $40 new.Klon-Rat-Delay-Reverb-Looper.
    It sounds great.
    I play a vintagey partsy Strat into an Epiphone Valve Junior combo. Not fancy but it sounds good to me and its what I've been using at home for the past 10+ years.
    The cheapo knock-offs are very good nowadays. But given that there are pedal hounds who are drooling for Arion and RAK pedals - Well who knows.
    At the same time, after the sound, there is something to be said for the real deal (I still regret sellingmy BeeBaa fuzz). But for me that usually has to do with the "user interface" than the sound of the new clones.
    I play modular synths a lot. And there is a lot to be said for a nicely built module with good jacks and nice knobs. Sure you can usually go cheaper - but those miniclones are often less fun to play physically.
    I don't know. If I had the cash I'd go for a cool pedal like these JHS ones. If I was short I'd go cheap knowing that there it was there tonewise.

    Not necessarily my favorite White Stripes track but one that made a big impact on me was "Fell In Love With A Girl". I was kind of in a weird place in my life at the time, bogged down with the family life, the mortgage, the job and life's responsibilities, but it helped snap me out of a rut and kinda helped put my life back on a more creative musical path. Thanks Jack White I needed that at the time. And remember Josh you asked.

    The Does it Doom Fuzzcoven is a super good one knob fuzz. All the pedals they have made are one knob! They only make limited editions and they sell out quickly but if you come across one-or if they’re reissued-they are worth getting.

    Such a good album, so its hard to pick one, but it would likely either be "I Wan't To Be The Boy To Warm Your Mother's Heart" or "Ball and Biscuit" ...Favorite Album is De Stijl and my favorites songs are "Hello Operator" and "Apple Blossom." Great video!

Good Jams too .

  • @timmungenast

    I am loving the hell out of the humor and the high-quality jams, even though I think a fuzz needs at least 2 knobs (dirt and volume), or maybe make the one knob the volume control and set the dirt to autodestruct internally. Keep up the great work, guys!

  • @hisproperty1438
    @hisproperty1438 Год назад

    G'day Josh,
    Thanks for a great video, & an even greater Record Time.
    I'm a big White Stripes/Jack White fan, so I do have Elephant on CD. Being such a big fan, I don't have a favourite album, but I will tell you what I like about the Elephant album.
    1. In The Cold, Cold Night - The 1st time Meg sang a WS song.
    2. Ball & Biscuit - Great guitar work.
    3. You've Got Her in Your Pocket - Different guitar style, but just more great guitar work.
    4. Little Acorns - I love the squirrel story. A girlfriend told me once that she was having problems. I told her the squirrel story. Her eyes lit up, & all her troubles disappeard.
    5. Hypnotize - Just a great song.
    6. I Just Don't Know What To Do With Myself - A great version of a song that I had originally heard performed by Marcia Hines in the 80's. I know that Dusty Springfield & Dionne Warwick also performed it, but I remember Marcia's version
    7. It's True That We Love One Another - I taught this song to my nephew when he was about 5 yo, & we sang it for his mum. But he forgot his line; "I love uncle Andrew like a big ol' brother..."
    8. You're Pretty Good Looking (For a Girl) - A great song to play when you invite a girl out (home?) on a date. I know it's from De Stijl, but that doesn't matter.
    9. Apple Blossom - Yes, another De Stijl track, but I jammed with a girlfriend once, to this track. She played her bass, & I was on rhythm, calling out the chords. It was the 1st time I made actual music music with a girl, & it was soooo sweet.
    Once again, thanks for a great video. I'm enjoying your channel at the moment, & I'm working my way through the Popular Uploads section... I'm hoping to catch up to you within the next few weeks. Until I do, keep up the good work.
    Andrew

    I hope this grows into comparing other 1 knob pedals, like choruses and reverbs, etc. There are a lot of 'em, and some of them are super sweet. Oh, and then when that gets old, a series on pedals with way too many knobs. There have been quite a few such pedals on this channel already. It's especially common with advanced delays, but then there's the crazy amp simulators with more knobs than the fricken amp would have haha.

    Just have to say, Elephant changed the way I think about music forever. I was 11 or 12 and we had a really cool music teacher in school who showed us songs from the Grammy nominees that year. I was immediately hooked on Seven Nation Army and it’s uniqueness. My parents eventually got me the CD and I was blown away by the diversity of music by two people over the course of just one record. Finally something that appealed to my dads rock tastes, my moms country tastes, and most importantly my own wild punk rock tastes. Almost 20 years later and it stands the test of time. Absolutely a top 5 album of all time for me. That’s all, cheers everyone!

  • @nedim_guitar
    @nedim_guitar Год назад

    The guys laughing at "the fuzzy nuts" circuit, almost like Beavis and Butthead... Funny! 😆 I have a same type of joke: "My wife has a great fuzz box, I love playing with it".
    Though, that's not the biggest takeaway from this video for me. The takeaway is that I really like fuzz! But I didn't used to like it, for 20 years I didn't care about fuzz, even though I loved listening to the fuzzy The Smashing Pumpkins guitars. When I moved on from digital modelling and built my first pedalboard in early 2020, and put fuzz on it, it really grew on me. I bought a used DOD Carcosa fuzz, it will be delivered next week. It will be interesting to try it! It's supposedly capable of being pretty wild and a bit glitchy. Thanks for the fun and informative content, JHS! I'll look at your fuzzes too, and maybe an analogue delay because I *caugh* "need" one.

    Mattoverse…wowee zowee. I picked up a Tremstortion yesterday from TwinTown in Minneapolis and have had a ball working it into my rig. Is it safe to assume that Josh is aware of the high quality what’s-in-the-box swag game Mattoverse offers? It’s beautiful and there’s stickers and a tiny tin of mints and a manual on magenta paper plus a button, not to mention an itty bitty purple plastic parachute person and a tipped-in CD of tunes I’m assuming also originate from somewhere in the Mattoverse. Anyways, love ya’ll, love the show, always anxiously awaiting the next installment.

    Favorite White Stripes record? Since you asked: White Blood Cells. Even though it was their 3rd record or something, I'd never heard of them. Then one day "Fell In Love With A Girl" was all over the radio. I should've got sick of it as often as they played it. I never did. I can listen to it on repeat all the way to work. On a really bad day, I actually did (recently) & it was one of the only things that held me together (TMI, sorry). Great record. I remember some people going nuts about how much they hated it. A lot of "these guys are even worse than Nirvana" in the online (and maybe even a few print) reviews. Love it.

  • @ytusersumone
    @ytusersumone Год назад +1

    Hey manufacturer, try this: Make a 1 knob pedal with 4 different settings. Each setting within a quarter turn of the knob (and maybe a 'click' feel when one fuzz type is at its max., before it changes to the next). So it's 4 presets and the user just adjusts how much preset fuzz signal is in the mix.
    This logic could also be used in chorus pedals etc. Easy to remember what is what with only one knob to adjust.
    Ps. Make the turning knob BIG (necessary for finetuning)
    And personally, I'd still prefer some way to adjust to what type of guitar/pickups I'm using i.e. a simple frequency adjustment, like a toggle switch.
