Carry-On Luggage Pedalboard Challenge [Dan vs Mick] - That Pedal Show
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 авг 2024
- We assemble two pedalboards that would be allowed as cabin/hand luggage on a typical budget airline. A wide, versatile range of sounds and fast setup is essential - who wins?
Life too short for long RUclips videos? Please see the ‘Interesting bits and go-to sections’ information below.
After receiving lots of feedback that our normal, big pedalboards are too big and cumbersome for MPMOTT (most people most of the time), we decided to address the issue with a challenge! Let’s assume we’re flying on a budget airline and have only carry-on/hand luggage… not knowing what amp may be provided at the other end. What can we come up with?
Let’s find out - enjoy the episode!
Judge’s note: We never got to see Mick’s change of clothes and ablutive accoutrements. The judge hereby confirms he did have a laptop bag containing said items - as per the Easy Jet Speedy Boarding allowance - ready and packed. With all the pedalboard fun, we forgot to film it. Doh!

You had me at "hello." Poor Dan, the longing for that Strat.
Watching Dan grab for the guitar and “Hello...” I’m on a bus to NYC, in tears... bravo to the editor (presumably Fraser)!
This is AMAZING! We need lots more challenges like this!
Great guitar telly!
Agreed!
Instablaster...
This video has a real sense of two mates having fun following their shared passion. Fun brief and really enjoy seeing the tinkering with the boards. Have always enjoyed watching your channel and it has become the steering wheel on the journey of tone.
This is the content I’m here for.
Dan's face at 51:17 needs to be on a t-shirt guys...
Darren Exley
🤣 I’m so glad he didn’t tell him, so Mick can find it later.
Dan getting shafted for the strat has to be one of the funniest yet heartbreaking things I've seen in a while.
@ 25:57 the defining moment Dan realized he forgotten about having a 'valve pre-amp' .... well played Mick! Great challenge great ep guys!
bvninja hahaha well
Spotted 😂👌🏼
Just watched a BBC documentary on the VOX AC-30.
Who showed up?
Mr Mick Taylor!
Then working for Guitar Magazine.
Great display of Fender,Marshall and VOX.
Great job there Mick!
Cheers!
haha I just watched it as well!
Link please?

OMG! For the first time ever, my wife (listening from across the room) asked me to repeat a segment of TPS! She heard the first time "Hello" played followed by me laughing hysterically. After the rewind.. she also laughed hysterically. Never change guys!
Moo!
Can't wait for VCQ just to see Mick's reaction to Dan's sad face
"This is obviously just thrown together" Excuse me, sir. This is a work of art
I’ve been watching TPS for the last 2/3 years and bought an OX based on your episodes, but I must say this was my favourite episodes so far. So brilliantly presented. These episodes take so much thought and time to create. Thank you so much D&M.
One of the best episodes in recent months. Challenges are rather good and entertaining format I think. It's fun but also practical and creative and can help lot MOTPMOTT. Great job!
Yeeeaaah love it, bring on the challenges guys, always love seeing your ingenuity in tackling various restrictions/criteria!
flying to some gigs outside of UK in december and just putting a board together. This is thee most perfect timing ever!!! Thanks guys
Lovely show - thank you both. Mick wins for me - tone-wise. But the whole pedalboard build commentary from both and Dan’s custom board carpentry are an inspiration - keep it up guys!
Best That Pedal Show episode in a while, love how real world it is, because when you get to the gig, even though it might say “Twin Reverb” and it might even look like a twin reverb, lord knows how it will sound and behave (because busted valves, busted speakers and busted 57’s always sound different)
that quickly put together pedal board of Dan is what i have been trying to get and took me lke 5years or so and his is still better because of all that gigrig sruff... wonderful!..
The tones when Mick went wet/dry. A-may-zing.
Assuming it’s not been dismantled already, could we hear Dans board with and without switcher? A ‘Why do you need a switcher?’ episode maybe? Be really good to show the difference
We should soooooo do this. I really struggle without my G2 these days. Mick here. Let’s do it!
The Strat envy was the highlight of the show. It caught me off guard and made me laugh mightily! Keep the hits coming! The wetter box with the Ripply was awesome and Dan's Start through anything would slay! I really liked the sound of the Maiden with the Topanga! The D&M Drive was also brilliant! Great boards guys!
Great timing on this show as I'm wanting to build a carry-on luggage board myself. Thanks!!
Malcolm here. Mick gets the award of “Dad joke of the month” with the blow in the dig pun. Great show too. Keep up the good work 😎👍
Malcolm Simpson
And chance to joke about Didgeridoos, must be taken.
... And the best “Carry On” moment in this TPS episode goes to ... Simon, for his “I like Mick’s front end and Dan’s rear end” double entendre.
Priceless!
Great episode. Really enjoyed hearing you play pedals - and pedal combinations - of your choosing. Thank you for the inspiration!
Not even remotely 'Carry On' until the last few minutes when Simon gave it the full Bernard Bresslaw. The challenges are great, keep up the good work.
That sound at 56 min onwards is just ace, Mick and that strat are made for each other,
Absolutely loved this episode. Great ideas and cool to get the brain working on small rig fly-away type options. Great work!
Great work guys! I think credit should be shared. Dan: huge range of gain tones from clean to pretty heavy. Also the Wetter Box with the modulation is outstanding. Mick: the EQ tweak-ability is amazing and I’m loving the sound of the Boss DD-200 and the variety of modes. These are great examples of everyday gigging boards
Everytime I hear Mick play I am inspired to pick up my guitar. Mick plays exactly how I'd like too lol
Wow. Thank you Matthew!
I love watching Dan's facial expression when the tone hits the sweet spot. It happens a lot. Gear nerds are the very best nerds!
Great show, much fun to watch and food for thought! Thank you very much
Your challenge episodes are outstanding. Please do more!
Thanks Guys......what a brilliant show! Great choices, amazing tones, awesome playing and top entertainment!
I look forward to the Carry-On Up The Khyber Pedalboard Challenge.
Oooh matron!
So good guys , Thank you for this . I have so been there , for a period of years . The Extremely low budget ,Regional ,Bar, Van tour. Multiple bands at every stop . 3 minute setup. Sound check is your first song . As you guys pictured here . The way I resorted to was Multi effects (This is a few years ago so Boss GT-6-8)(pre Helix and Kemper,which I couldnt have afforded back then anyway :-) )) which was ok some nights ,others not so great . No where near the Tones you guys are getting here .Gonna start building my "travel board " now ...
"No Dan, you may not touch the Precious" 😂 😂 😂
"there's an obvious.. discrepancy.." with the hand motion gave me a good laugh, Dan. Well done
I love that challenge, great show guys, so funny! Well done!
This was sooo good. I love all your shows but build off shows are super fun.
That was fun! I call it pretty even. Both are versatile. The wet/dry on both were great!
Cheers guys, only another 11/10 episode. Two builds for the price of one, fab. The Dan 'Hello....' bits were just too funny, can't stop smiling. Hot Rod Deluxe may be the winner, really can't knock it. The 'chunk' on the front of the note with the Maiden was Schofieldesqe, glorious. In a casting vote is a copy of Viz cooler than the Schmitt board is oh so cute ...... hmmm tricky. Have a very lovely weekend y'all. :)
Great video. Did this for a gig in Germany once and had some issues at the airport. Turns out the used EHX Small Clone I was using had traces of pyro on it ... cue an “interesting” talk with security 😳! Suffice it to say I now give pedals a good wipe down before flying.
My favorite video you guys have done in awhile!
Nice format and some great sounds and tips/ideas on this episode. Thanks!
Lads, that was some sweet playing and sounds in the one. Thanks for inspiring - as always!
These are the episodes I truly love. It just puts you on the spot for a limited choice and set up. I think you should do these every 2 months, that way any new pedals that surface will give you a selection headache. really impressed with your selections and it just puts into place what we all are learning, ..... rapidly.. Gold medal guys. I would be interested in your input on how you would set up my budget -ish board ???? thank you Sirs.
Brilliant as always! That strat is nuts!
Hahaha that reach for the strat moment. Thankyou you for emphasising it perfectly
Oh man, Simon... you definitely invested the be all end all t-shirt! Hahaha!
GREAT episode guys, lots of fun a great tones!
Bravo gentleman, thoroughly entertaining video. Mick may have been crowned "the winner" but we all won by getting to watch this one. \m/
This combines my favorite TPS content: Mick vs Dan challenge, pedalboard building and vlogs!
Elon Mush ... I agree, this show is close to perfect. It’s like the perfect Thanksgiving bite. My American friends may know what I’m talking about. (A bit of all the dishes all in one bite...)
Absolutely! Love these kinds of videos:)
Thanks for the feedback guys! We shall keep this in mind when planning new stuff!
@@ThatPedalShow I was hoping you'd take a look at the several replies saying this kind of content is awesome😄
Cheers!
One of the best TPS episodes in a long time, guys.
Enjoyed this show. Real world applications and a fun format.
Dan truly excelling on the '61 Strat sadface!
Dan's unrequited love for a 60's Strat at 51:13 and 58:54, and then Mick's car ornament headbob at 1:03:40 ...Absolutely hilarious!
Amazing episode. Loved it. Lots of fun whilst teaching us a trick or two...
Cheers
The Lionel Ritchie joke made my day. Keep up the good content guys ; you both rule. Cheers from France ;-)
Looovely, that's a great one, guys!
Would love to watch one similar video, about dealing with biggger amps.
You know, like the ones many venues own, but never let you turn up to the point you can get an actual sound out of.
Getting big tones out of small amps is one thing, but getting big tones (or any tone) out of almost dead big amps, is another one...
Cheers!
Good shout!
Wonderful episode, one of my favourites. I am trying to get a small rig together at home to cover a variety of tones and this has given me some great ideas!
I'm imagining the reaction as the x-ray machine shows a bunch of boxes joined to each other a web of wires 🤔
This is peak, ur-TPS. Favourite episode by far!
What an interesting, entertaining and instructive episode! I especially enjoyed that you put constraints on yourselves - small(ish) boards which limited choices. And then hearing your thought processes about what could go on and what couldn't and why. And then what tremendously lush tones you achieved with two amps you never would have chosen! Goes to show what talent and know-how can do with a modest sized board (admittedly with outstanding guitars and excellent quality pedals). Quality over quantity, eh, mates?
Where is the "I LOVE this" button! Great episode guys. Wow Mick the tones with the Hot Rod-were really great. Granted- AMAZING guitar of course, but wow that Kingsley pedal with the Deluxe! Well done guys, well done!
Also almost forgot to mention-I love the new shirts! Got one for Christmas, and the sizing and feel are fantastic! Love it.
Hey Guys - its amazing ... sometimes you come with up with the right topics exactly at the right time ;) really appreciate it ! The maiden sounds awesome into the hot rod with that guitar. hang on .... P.S. looking forward to an in depth look at the Strat ;)
Really enjoyed this episode my friends, thank you.
Loved your work. This was a lot of fun. Points to Dan for the Comedy Gold. Loved the Simon Says ending!!
Great job guys! Love the Maiden.
I love this video even though no one in their right mind would pay me to get on a plane to go somewhere and play music. Well done guys.
sweet video....great fun! Love you guys!
Dan was a good sport about the brutal beating. I learned that I need to learn more about preamp pedals because I use random backline amps often. Thanks! Great show.
Hey Jim. We’ve done a few shows on it in the past. That said, I thought his Tele sounds at the end were the best of the day hearing it back! Mick here, obvs.
As nice a that strat sounds and as useful as the valve preamp is, the game changer for both boards was plugging into the Fender tube amp. Getting a good amp is crucial for getting a good sound.
I’d agree - Mick here - alas it’s not always possible. The Kingsley did a good job with the Orange I thought. But yeah, I’d have a Squier and a great amp any day of the week over this 61 and a solid state or modelling thing. Now there’s a video.
Great show! I just want to remind everyone to read the info under the video section. Tons of info about the show in there!👍
Nice! This is what I face all the time, thanks guys
I surrendered to HX Stomp for my first overseas tour, but you guys are making me strongly reconsider for the next one. I love pedals and everything you guys talk about, but a single pedal that fits in your gig bag and gets you at least 90% of the way to whatever tone you need is hard to beat.
Loved this challenge!!
Super cool video! The challenge type video are super entertainimg!
Walrus 385 is just wonderful. I swear there are no bad sounds in that magic box. OD of choice with my hard-to-tame Coodercaster.
I could see a Boss MS-3 with a couple of nice drives and that Jam pedal being a really good solution here.
Mick and Dan, the perfect panto horse pedal board! Sounded bloody fantastic, was surprised at the subtle boost in sound quality that the Kingsley pre provided.
Mick always has the best pedalboards, he has such a good taste for tones
You guys deserve a thumb up for this video and a special one for the “strat-hello-dan’s face” thing at 51.16....
BTW, an idea / suggestion for the montage next time - I would have loved to have it more interactive, first dan's selection of pedals, then mick' selection, then one's first part of building the board, then the other's, then again to the first one and so forth, and then both of you saying you're putting on your JAM modulation unit or both taking a humdinger or both using the phrase "...and I'm that kind of player who really can't play without a reverb" :D instead of having two entire separate videos ... would have given a nice touch, both in terms fo following the two stories and in terms of the competition element :D
Pedals alone, I love Mick's. The 385 is a fantastic OD, something all it's own, yet perfectly familiar.
Love this already!
I love these Top Gear style challenges. I still think that you should do a DIY pedal challenge, have Mick build a kit and Dan from scratch.
32:10 Speaking of Kirk Fletcher, he was on the TrueTone Lounge over the weekend. I'm excited to watch that video.
Just brilliant fun, thanks chaps ....
Oh Dear ... at 51:00 ... ! Dan, don't be sad, You had more than enough moments already! I love You both ! Congrats to Your channel from Budapest/Hungary
Mick here. It’s some small karma for the four years of Red slaying absolutely every guitar I’ve ever owned. Hahahahaha ah!!!
Nice to see you guys having a carry-on..............episode!
Ooh matron.
It's Dig. 😅
This has been a super fun episode though!
thanks for including the RYRA. I got my hands on one of those after I made comment about needing a klon clone and the RYRA was your top recomendation. It's an almost-always-on pedal for me.
Yep, the RYRA is as good as they come
I just bought a Ryra too because of all the praise it’s received from multiple channels.
This is great! Next, I want to see a pedalboard challenge where both of you build boards that you’d be comfortable gigging WITHOUT using any GigRig gear.
Great episode! Let the man touch the Strat!!
Yes! More video challenges!
The thing at 53:14 is SOOO important for people switching between clean and rocky stuff when playing live
I've had the Il Diavolo for just over a year and I love it. It sounds great and it's really versatile. I'd recommend it to anyone.
Aaaaand now I really ‘need’ a Schmidt Array. Such versatility in setup options.
Cool challenge! I have a board exactly of this size, I used a broken music sheets stand, you know the ones you cannot fold, that are one piece of metal with holes? The holes are great for running all the cables :D and I'm using an old suitcase to transport it around with all the cables - the wheels are nice to have!
Dan has a Mission expression pedal!! I'm suddenly hugely pleased that I, with zero knowledge really, got one myself a few years back. Built like a tank.
TIL : Buy that 61. Also Dan's playing was spectacular on an unfamiliar rig.
I measured my every day board case and it fits! Warwick rockboard 4.1
