Nicely done, Rob!
Great tone tips, ge7 settings was very enlightening, thanks Sir Rob !!
Thanks Rob. I have always played thru single channel amp. This really does turn in to a two or three channel amp. Thanks for the hack. I’m playing with a drummer now can’t wait to try it out. 👍
Hell yeah Rob! ❤
Thanks Roberto for a fun video, nice to see that you look in a Happy place. Hope life's treating you good & your family are fine, have a great weekend. Keep on rocking. PEACE AND LOVE TO EVERYONE ❤❤ .
Oh.. gonna try that with my GE-7 copy. Thanks so much for the one pedal juggling. Cheers.😊
That chorus is SOO Sammy 5150 Era. I like it🤠🎸
Nice lookin teles too! I saw the BlackStone Cherry dude was playin wm now
When I used to use an old jcm 800 I’d put a boss od 1 in the front and an eq pedal in the effects loop. That way I could get a colossal volume boost for lead and shape the tone. It sounded phenomenal!!
I bought one in 1992, but sold it in 2003 because I was low on cash. Never regretted anything guitar related more! One of my best friends bought it, and of course he won’t sell it back to me. B@stard! 😂
I bought an old Boss 10-band graphic EQ (RGE-10) kind of as an impulse purchase because I saw it for a good price on Reverb, but it's become my "secret weapon" for recording with my Marshall (JMP 2203 from '81 modded with an FX loop). I run the EQ in the FX loop and use the EQ to carve out that harsh frequency around 3-4kHz that Marshalls tend to have (and for lead, sometimes boosting the midrange a little bit), and it really allows you to crank the amp and get a nice sound without it poking your ears like an icepick (especially with a Strat)
Thanks!! 🤘🏻🎸
Very good video 👌
For my budget board, the one pedal that has consistently made the cut for low to medium gain is the Joyo Sweet Baby. I absolutely love it. It's an extremely ugly pedal but has nice natural crunch. I just paint mine so it doesn't offend my eyes. The other one is the Donner Yellow fall delay. Both are great for under $35.00. I tend to change out pedals alot on that board (because it's a budget board), but those two always seem to make the cut.
The EQ is great for single channel amps like you explained. Paul Gilbert had a signature pedal for just that purpose.
Thanks for the vid! A bit too much coffee today?
Depending on which amp I am using, I sometimes run a GE7 through the effects loop.
There a so many great OD pedals now. But I use a TC Spark into a Nobles OD1 into a Keeley Nobles Screamer into a Fulltone OCD into a Walrus 385. Some interesting OD tones from various OD stacking. Love that 385!
I also use a Dynacomp, 2 Carbon Copies, Angel Wing, HOF Reverb and a Strymon Blue Sky.
I don't have much use for a wah but I do run a mini- volume from Fender.
And of course a Boss tuner. The same one I've had on my board since 1989. That thing is a tank. No problems with it ever.
However, lately I've been trying some of the new multi-effects units. They are getting REALLY good but still missing just that little but of pixie dust. There always seems to be 1 or 2 effects that are not good or even useable.
That first guitar was perfect.
Excellent use of the GE7
Yep, it’s an underdrive. Someone makes a dedicated underdrive pedal. You could also use a second one to effectively replace the green thing, since you’re using the green thing as more of a boost than a dirt. All good
I'm building exactly that right now. 4 footswitchable underdrive to boost stages with 3-band EQ each and the option to send a channel switch to an amp via TRS cable, all in one box 😀
Really like that HS ML1. I hope Chapman Guitars adds a version to the lineup.
YES YES YES I SECOND THAT! Been asking for it myself! In a pro model!
I got the GE7 used in 92 as a newb looking to scoop like Kirk didnt know it was a gem just Boss was good. Its been in a closet for yrs bc i stuck a Mooer multi effect in my 6505mh loop and just made patches chorus flange phase etc the Mooer has a 3 band eq that scoops but not nearly as adjustable. The Mooer does have built in looper w drums which is useful.
Pretty cool, I’ll try that with my mxr 10 band. Btw, just curious, if your amp DID have an FX loop, where would you run each pedal? I ask because I have my od and wah in front, then my delay chorus reverb, looper, and 10 band eq all in the fx loop. I ask mainly because of the wah, it sounds like everything running into the wah and I’m a bit piqued at the sound vs how i have it running into the front.
I love Boss pedals and your guitars too, not wanting you to feel left out 🤣🤣🤣🤣 and now I know where I'm going wrong I wear shoes when using pedals - Are socks the way forward?
I actually have an EHX Signal Pad on my board. It's literally just a pedal with a bypass switch and a volume knob on it that turns down the signal going into the amp. I use mine in the effects loop as a master volume though, as the Peavey Bandit doesn't have a master volume. Nice little pedal if you don't need the EQ section. 👍
Rob you need some funky shocks 😝
I use my EQ pedal as a boost because you can get some grit out of it if you raise the level up to about 7 or 8. Also I use the bass version (be7 I think) because I have a Marshall mkII that has a lot of high end.
What do you think of the Morley 20/20 Classic wah?
Rob, it seems you are doing a series for beginners or others that are still chasing tone. Have you done one about subtleties of the tone, gain/drive/boost and volume settings for the amp and/or the guitar?
Hi Lee, I would love to do that, but I don’t think it would get enough views to warrant the time and energy.
Do I need a ten band eq like MXR or is the boss enough?
I would suggest in matters of chorus maybe to check out the Dimension D von Boss Waza Craft! It's amazing and gives almost the same effect to your sound as would be a chorus doing but it's subtly different. I love mine and it really impoves any clean and mildly overdriven sound!
Good argument there for a stereo midi EQ like the Source Audio.
That said the GE7 is in that Swiss army knife family of pedals for sure.
My green box is the JHS Bonsai. 9 different screamers in one box including the Keeley mod and the Josh Scott mod. The EQ pedal trick is terrific. EQ pedals are so useful. I actually bought a Metal Zone just recently because of how good the eq section is. Does it have trebly fizz like a squadron of angry bees going in the front of the amp? Yep. But there are plenty of ways to fix that. Put it in an fx loop. No fx loop? Put a little bit of delay after and it will smooth right out. It may have more volume and gain than I need but sometimes you need to piss off your neighbors.
Hi Rob, this is remarkably similar to my live setup but I run the GE7 next to the Tube Screamer so I can hit both at the same time with one foot press.
Ahh that classic double foot press… I like it, just a little bit dodgy for live
@@RobChappers nothing dodgy about it, just angle the foot, one good stomp and hit that lead note without feeling like you are doing riverdance
So true bypass with no buffer are natural 9 plus shmeat wavers?
Great thing: you're using the GE7 as 'attenuator that EQ-ing a bit brighter sound'! .. IQ999 .. ChapperTheSmarter is born!
What model is that HS guitar? My favorite setup.
What exact model of Dunlop wah is that?
Filthy. Brilliant. Thanks for showing us how, Rob. Cheers.
You’re welcome dude
Ya know, I've had a GE-7 for years, and I don't like the overprocessed sound of it. You are the first person I have ever heard talk about that "hack" from Ade. I'm going to try it. I don't use pedals much, because I like to go balls out with an amp that has the gnarsty, fugly, tank-treads-grinding-bones sound that I love. Usually, a little something from the lads at Orange. These days, it really is a "little" something, because all I currently have is a Micro Dark. But, man! That little f*cker was made to cause much pain and suffering! No pretty, silly love songs coming out o' that tiny black box of evil! But, yeah, you've given me a project, with the GE-7. Thank you, sir!
This is how I use my GE-7: In front of the amp, cut off the lower frequency into a distorted amp. This increases the clarity and note definition like a tube screamer whitout the hump in the mids. Great if you have a high gain humbucker like a JB but need enhanced articulation
Most amps sound better when you get a very overdriven sound, then wind the guitar volume back a couple of notches, you get far more clarity and far less fludge. Especially with Telecasters and Strats (single coil).
Hey Rob what happened to your last video where you had the camera looking down from a players pov looking down at your hands while you were playing ? I started watching it , then went to finish it and couldnt find it ?
Nobody watched it so I just deleted it, from time to time the algorithm just chooses not to put content out unless it is particularly dramatic - straight guitar lessons no longer receive any more than 1000 views, it’s all about whether or not they can make revenue from placing advertising on the content. Is what it is…
@@RobChappers thanks for the reply, I appreciate it. I liked the different camera angle as there aren't many people doing vids like that .
I'm another Aussie - from the West. Maybe another time for a visit ?
For a second I thought you were wearing scooba gear on your feet bro. I like not wearing shoes on my board as well. But I use an elastic beach shoe that form fits the foot. I think they call it that anyway.
Drybell Vibe machine works for me and small like the MXR
I’ve done this eq trick for 20 years with a mxr eq. Eq On is less gain less volume , eq pedal OFF is lead . A more inexpensive way is a volume attenuation pedal from Amazon for $30.
GE-7 is great. If you move a slider off zero and its starts to hiss a little, a mod can fix that. Don’t know if Boss has resolved this, but I’ve owned two that would hiss. Especially if its going to be an always on pedal for a clean sound. They should do a Waza version with upgraded components.
Stock GE-7 is undoubtedly the most hissy pedal out there. Even today. These mods are there not without a reason.
Slightly drunk Rob is the next best thing on YT xD
Psych!! I’m completely sober
@@RobChappers polish people can sense that man😄😄 cheers!
if you have an extra pedal with a eq you can make it transparent [ match your amps tone] then use the eq to adjust your tone , not as good as a 6 ban eq but works in a pinch or if your a a cheap/lazy bastard like my self .
Yeah that’s a great idea
You rock!! \m/-_-\m/
🤘🏽🤘🏽❤️🤘🏽🤘🏽
Good choices, the only things I miss there are a reverb and a delay.
Edit
You address those near the end.
1:00 JYUUUCE
Which model is the Wah Pedal it looks like an ideal size for my Pedal Board?
I have been scrolling through the comments hoping to find an answer to the same question.
It’s just the Mini Dunlop Wah
Given up on Neunaber?
The volume on the EQ fully down and it still lets the sound thru? I never knew that. So its like a choke, and then you take the choke off by turning the pedal off Trying it on my MXR 10-band -- because that's what I have. I would think it really does cut everything on the MXR
Sure-f**king-enough, it absolutely does work like that on the MXR 10-Band. Smart.
Glad to help bro
Big love from Aus 🇦🇺🦘
Man, I miss Australia, have some incredible memories from there, like making my daughter LOL
Gotta be that warm weather ;) Australia is great, you should make the trip back when you get some time lol! Huge fan rob, been following you since the beginning! Love your work! Keep it up
And as soon as I can afford myself a nice Chapman ml3 it’ll be first thing on my to do list that day
Hey Rob, are they black socks or are they really really really really really really dark blue? 😂
Using a tuner is like adding D pill to my tone...OK Rob, time to wake up, you're back in reality now. Next you'll be saying the tone is in the hands or the wood lol
Instead of the chorus pedal try a Keeley Dyno-my-roto. It’s a tri-chorus, a rotoflange and rotary sound all in one pedal.
No Phase 90 Pedal???
Crunch sound comes out BadCat amp.
And the pedals are condiments.
0Oo°°° yeah!?
Me i am more ol the old school rack gear musician. for me hopefully in the future i will have more on effects, etc. company let's called keller instruments inc. i have ideas for things i have not seen yet and or improvements on things. First would be i want to create a programmable wah pedal and there would be a rack version. where you can program up to 500 settings which can be controlled by midi, you could control it by blue tooth, etc. it would have a option to where it would be either switchless meaning as soon as you step on it, it is on and step off it is off. the rack version will be similar but you can connect up to 8-10 of the pedals which will be switchless. you will be able to program 1000 settings. and midi and blue tooth controllable but you will be able to connect it to Ax-fx, Helix, or whatever effects processor you want and when you change presets of them it will change the wah, There will be fade and tails added so it can fade out from one preset to another. You can name the presets. then like that there will be a programmable tuner pedal and rack version where you can program tunings into it you can choose chromatic, strobe, the display whether you like Korg DTR 2000, or the peterson, boss pedals, there will be choices of displays so you can pick what you like. there will be up to 5000 settings, this will work for all stringed instruments, 7/8/9/ 12 string instruments. also you can choose the have the background display colors to change and flash as your tunging so it goes from blue (Flat) to green (In tune) Or (Sharp) which would be red. Or you can change what colors you want to stand for flat, in tune or sharp. also it can be connected to another idea which i will get to later. Then next thing will be a pedal and rack single and a dual 31 band programmable graphic equalizer and a parametric equalizer. These will also be midi controllable. have up to 500 programmable settings (plus all these will have artists settings as well) you can manually change the equalizer settings or do it through the app or the other thing i will get to later. The next thing will be a Programmable No Latency I guess you would call a transposer. This will be for being able to play like zz top song where you can play the standard tuning part, turn on this effect and go into the slide tuning for those parts. or better yet, you can play the ozzy osbourne no more tears standard tuning then click on this effect and it goes to that lower tuning. No more needing multiple guitars for tuning. Again you will have 5000 programmable presets, also you can go from the standard switch to momentary switch on the pedal but this will be midi controllable and can be controlled through blue tooth and through the next idea I have. which would be the keller foot controller system which will be a modernday bob bradshaw system mixed with the Helix, Neural DSP with a large screen on the large footcontrollers, there will be phantom power outputs for Connecting a tablet or laptop that you can have mounted on mic stands which you would then not have to kneel down to edit or change effects. also you can have the tuner display on the tablet again so you do not have to look down, there will be things like trails and fades for effects, you can program which switch will do what and if they are standard or momentary, like some new footcontrollers, each switch will have their own screen where you can label what they do, and set and change the background color of them, you can program names of presets, there will be scenes as well. There rackmount controller system will have where you can connect 8 foot controllers to them, each footcontroller will have in/outs for up to 4 expression pedals. and maybe a port for multiple displays or tablets, laptop this way you can control and change effects, etc. without bending down or your guitar tech backstage can change things. also have an idea to create a phantom power guitar instrument cable that powers active pickups and electronics so you would not need batteries. also i thinking up a new effects rack unit. something take takes the old school stuff ADA preamps, SGX 2000, Digitech stuff add it with Line 6 POD XTPRO and Helix, Fractal Ax FX, Kemper, Neural DSP and make the ultimate effects/preamp processor a 4-5 space rack unit, with over 10,000 presets user presets and 10,000 artists presets. with every effect in the book, you can control it through laptop/desktop, tablet, It can be used as a interface go from guitar to computer, it would be multi instrument use. instead of having a model for guitar, one for bass, and one for vocals, also trying to think how to create where can may a synth unit like the roland ones without the need of the pickup. where you can use the standard instrument pickups. Then there would be a line of keller amps which i would like to take things from multiple brands i love and put into a 4 and 6 channel all tube amp and some things i have not seen done for guitar amps but dug pinnack of Kings x did for his bass amp, I believe he had it it where one part of the amp would push the low end through one set of cabinets and high and mids through another set of cabinets, I would like to try that in guitar amp heads. like have mids and highs go through 2 4x12 speaker cabinets and the low end go through 2 1x15 or 2 1x18 cabinets. also have midi controllable, and on the speaker cabinets i would like to have what Joe Satriani had on his Peavey JSX speaker cabinets i believe it was some kind of mic input/output thing. Me I am old school hauling stuff around is a part of paying dues as a musician it is a part of the heritage. which i do not want it to die off. Too many are becoming lazy and depending only tech and lazy tactics. Yeah i might be stupid, delusional or whatever to come up with or what those things to exist. but there is a few more such as creating a dual 7 way blade switch for 2 humbucker, 3, humbucker and 2 humbucker and a single coil pickup configurations. you could get even more variety. yes i may be crazy, and i am not good at explaining stuff. but i believe these things would sell and would make it better especially the programmable wah, equalizer, tuner which whether the pedal versions or rack versions you can connect to your tablet that you can have on your mic stand and change and edit them and be able to tune without having to bend down to your footcontroller, pedal board. also these pedals with be able to power a laptop or tablet . but if these things existed i would be using them.
Thank you for such a considered and detailed response Sarah. I really appreciate your experience👍
Who'da thunk it?!! 😮
No noise gate?
Nope
Anyway Rob, thanks for the socks, there really is nothing more disturbing to the sensitive kind than a sockless man.
SO MANY PLAYERS DO NOT KNOW THIS USE OF THE GE7. I HAVE BEEN USING IT THIS WAY FOR 50 YEARS OR WHEN THEY CAME OUT. SO MANY TIMES I HAVE HEARD PRO PLAYERS RELYING ON THE SOUND MAN TO TURN THEM UP WHEN THEY SOLO. NOT A GOOD IDEA.
I AGREE 🤘🏽🤘🏽
I agree too, but in lower case.
Damn I got deafened reading that.
@@darrinwarner4046bro has been playing for 50 years and lost his hearing. It’s cool. We will all be there soon.
same with the tone knob and vol on the guitar set to 6-7 set amp to taste ‚ open up for kicks. first pedal i ever made was a pot in. box. passive volume sucker
! ! !
Thank you for pronouncing Ibañez the right way.
I hate watching American yt channels where they say: Ai-banez… 😡
1:05 - Dsus
😲
Damn Rob.It`s been years and listening to you play Never gets old. Ready for some more USA clinics,so get off your bum and come over and sell some more guitars. We love and miss you baby, Y`all have a goodn over there ya hear. Holla.
That may happen sooner than you think :-)
@@RobChappers Oh baby dont tease me Lol, Rob, Your Music is Fantastic, Your freakin Killin it. Hope to see ya one Day. Take care.
I thought it was going to be about the wig.
Underdrive.
Chapman guitars ain't what they used to be
I need a cry baby because have teenagers now.
Second
Tuners don't count as a pedal damnit might as well just say you got five pedals and just saying a bunch of pedals everyone uses is no secret either
Bro, did you watch the video to the end?
Jeez Rob.....use BOSS much??? C'mon man....!!!!
Shit works - is easy to find and is affordable, I’m taking the advice of Steve Vai
cry baby is all well and good till the pot goes, which it will
Buncha boomer pedals!
Black socks are the secret!
Tone socks are back ha ha
I went black sock and colored underwear and only wash 1 load of colors a week and dont buy bleach anymore lol!
