Writing a Beach Boys Song In One Day (New Products from JHS Pedals, Keeley Electronics, Benson Amps)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 13 май 2024
- Last year, the Beach Boys got in touch with Josh, asking him to put together a team of people to create gear harkening back to the glory days of the 60s, the time when the Beach Boys and so many others shined the brightest. That era left an indelible mark on the history of music and culture in ways both seen and heard. We didn't want to just reminisce, though. We wanted to offer something that would be useful and inspiring today and into the future. We are proud to bring two units to this beach party. First is the Good Vibrations - named after their hit single - an era-appropriate, bulb driven, Uni-Vibe style pedal with chorus and vibe options. Second, named after a long unreleased instrumental track, is the Punchline, an all-in-one bass rig designed so the player can just plug in and play, designed with the legendary bass sounds of the Wrecking Crew in mind. Grab your tiki drink and enjoy the show!
Find the Good Vibrations here: www.sweetwater.com/store/deta...
And the Punchline here: www.sweetwater.com/store/deta...
You can find the whole line, including the Surf's Up Tube Amp from Benson Amps and the two pedals from Keeley Electronics, here! www.sweetwater.com/shop/beach...

Please use this "create a song in a day" formula as a regular series. The best way to show off music gear is so show how it works in a song. This is one of the best music gear commercials I've seen in a while.
Would agree! Excellent replay value as well!
It's easily my favourite type of video to be honest, the finale of sonic boom season 1 is a great example aswell as first of october
Pete Thorn and Mike Herman enter the chat
Create a show like "Junkyard Wars" or "popular cooking show" where musicians equipped with a warehouse of gear and a lifetime of skill are asked to "create a modern Beach Boys song" or "What if Jimi Hendrix wrote a death metal song..."
I'd watch that for free!
Dude it’s such a terrible way to show off a pedal lol maybe if you’re 14 and don’t understand the sounds of chorus and drive.

Shout out to Chris Cron - what an insanely talented guy. Hope he can be a regular guest within the Rhett / Josh sphere in the future!
Well thank you!!! Rhett and Josh are amazing and I had a blast working with them
@@ChrisCronMusic Love u dude, more keys in guitar videos
@@ChrisCronMusic you guys need to do a “Writing a Crosby, Stills and Nash Song in One Day” because I was getting Stephen Still vibes with your vocals at the end.
With Chris involved, the Voice Tech pedal can go from fantastical dream to true reality now , amirite?
A Cron Job™ - The IT nerds will get it.
Whoever mixed this did a hell of a job. Mixing bass with a bass VI, a Baritone, a 12 string and high strung plus the guitars? That isn’t easy.
His name is Shawn Dealey and he rules
That bass Preamp is insanely good, y’all really outdid yourselves with that one.
Well done brother. Really cool approach to new pedals.
Yo, @RhettShull, what are your thoughts on the Good Vibrations?
@@beaverpondlanedaring question.
The best line is Josh saying "We just need John Stamos" lol.
That WAS awesome! 😂
Timely for me personally. Visiting my mom for Mother's day, I bought her Beach boys tickets. It was my first concert, and there has always been a picture of me, about 5 or 6 years old, on my mom's shoulders at the show, hanging in the living room. My father has also recently passed. Him being a musician, I have been sorting through his copious amounts of vintage gear, including a drip edge band master reverb, and an old Standel amp, both with spring reverb and vibrato and Tremolo. I've also uncovered his 12 string, piles of percussion toys, and a '64 Strat. The gear is a lot heavier than modern pedals, but I'm all set to record a "Beach Boys" song.
I mean, ya gotta!
Holy Crap! Song is Amazing! A lost Beach Boys classic. Bravo! Fantastic job.
For a project that initially seemed tongue in cheek, the final product sounds anything but. It was immediately obvious you guys were in full-send-mode. So impressed with the creativity and craftsmanship on display here. The vibe (and Chris’ vocals-Jeez!) is so crazily on pointe. I only wished I clicked on it sooner. Congrats and well-done to everyone involved.
Two things all these fine folks have in common: 1. They all care a LOT and do their very best at everything they do, and 2. They have fun in the process... laugh at the failures, and celebrate the successes.
Incredible. Now make a whole album called Rhett Sounds.
This needs to be the top comment! Bravo sir.
LOL,😊 Perfect name. LOL
😂🤣
If you love what you do, you’ll never work a day in your life. That doesn’t mean you won’t get tired or experience sleepless nights. Heck, you may not even get paid, but the knowledge that you created something of beauty leaves a sparkle in your eyes and a smile on your lips.
Great job, guys.
I’m blown away. So glad The Beach Boys are still getting recognition and inspiring musicians. JHS, Keeley, and Benson, thank you so much. Just ordered the Good Vibrations pedal. What a great day today
Absolutely epic video guys, you killed it!
That is both a thrilling sugar rush of vintage pop goodness and hilarious! Well done, gentlemen, well done to you!
Beach Boys are probably my favorite band of all time. And you absolutely killed this! The melodies, the harmonies, the chord changes, the song structure. It's all SO beach boys. I feel like they have one of the most defining sounds ever!
Those Wild Honey-style vocal ad-libs were sweet
Agreed. A definitely stand-out moment. That dude really channels Carl. It's uncanny.
Over a Roll Plymouth Rock cadence in the backing vocals! A genuine tour of their late 60s output
Hats off to all! Chris Cron wrote a perfect song for the project, and he sounds like Carl Wilson singing! The arrangement was spot on. Wild!
This brilliant. Gesus! Get this streaming everywhere, and get this nominated for a Grammy.
One of the best channels on this whole platform. Loved this launch concept. Song was beautiful and Chris is an insane talent.
thank you!!!
Hey jhs- can you share a bit on how the vocals were signal path wise? There’s some really amazing old tones there and I’m wondering how that was done. I adore The Beach Boys and came to watch this and have fun but left honestly having a new favorite song. Soooo beautiful and full and so like a beach boys song in the tones and recording it’s amazing! Thanks man
You'll appreciate the honesty of Rhett, who doesn't present himself as a guitarist or musician, but as a guy who "makes videos about guitar stuff" 👨🔬
What? :p Rhett is a musician, he is the guitarist for Noah Guthrie(on the verge of exploding, IMHO)...however, I do get what you are saying, he gives freely of his knowledge, instruments, and what its like on the road...it is his attitude which shines much like Josh and Chris
Yeah, I mean at this point making videos is my job so 🤷♂️
Thank God we didn’t have to hear his mediocre slide tone!
@@RhettShull
You’re a musician.
You are a RUclipsr, but I do think that description, limits how many things that you do, whether it gets on the channel or not.
I think we have to redefine what an artist is, because your channel is a place that you express yourself, whether a video on a guitar or gear, or in a studio, at a gig, taking pictures with Tilly, etc.
It’s been very influential in the channel I’m going to be doing with a friend, after I move back to Asheville, NC this spring.
@@linksauce_1
Do you ever do freelance work, making videos for other people?
Not collabs, but more they send you audio and video, to make them a video out of it.
Just curious.
Damn. that whole project looks so fun! I’m not a big Beach Boys guy, but I’ve always respected their contribution to modern
Music. So this idea of recreating the tones and feel from their classic Pet Sounds LP, while writing and recording a completely new song, is so darn creative. I’m jealous. Great stuff.
As a major beach boys fan and a musician myself, this is absolutely amazing. You guys killed this.
Cool song, totally nailed the vibe!
Re: Carol Kaye bass tone: not a felt pick, just a normal one, BUT a piece of foam *over* the strings. Wedged inside the P-Bass ashtray back then, or taped across the strings on her modern Ibanez.
HUGE props to the recording/mixing engineers on this project too! The way these old songs balanced having all these different textures and parts without sounding (too) overwhelming is a massive part of the beach boys/wrecking crew sound, and they nailed it. No easy task.
The Beach Boy live in a special place in my heart and always will. Y'all did a superb job recreating the sounds and feel, including the obvious pick click on the bass. It's overwhelming to remember Brian Wilson did all this with so much less electronics, just pure skill and talent.
Thank you!!
Way to go! Right on time. Had an earworm the other day, Kokomo. Been listening to The Beach Boys since ‘62 or 3, had to revisit the first three albums, Surfin’ Safari/USA and Surfer Girl plus my all time favorite All summer long. Watch a ton of stuff from Josh’s channel and Rhett’s channel, always entertaining. Loved seeing the collaboration of all of you. You all have amazing talents and the fact that you share that with all of us stellar. 👍🏼 👍🏼 👍🏼 👍🏼 👍🏼
I REALLy REALLY REALLY liked the song! You all did a fantastic job at getting the spirit of The Beach Boys on your original. The lead vocal was almost as if Brian was singing himself. Kudos! And Cheers!!
Thanks Rick!
This was incredible. I’m a huge Beach Boys fan and a JHS fan, and this was a perfect combo.
Lots of history to pay attention to in here.
Thanks a ton!
My fav JHS vid. Love having Chris and Rhett here.
New flipper deterrent strategy. Confusion for the first 20-30 mins. They lose interest, prices stay low.
😂
Did they lose interest?
Stay low? I don't think they were low to begin with lol
You guys nailed it ! 50 years ago this would have been a top-10 hit on the radio. This video is an awesome way to demo the gear used as well. You may have started a new trend on how to present new products.
This is the most fun video that I've seen in a long time.
I saw the Beach Boys documentary a couple days ago, coincidence? yes, absolutely. Your song is great.
Lifelong Beach Boys fan - absolutely loved this! Such talent, well done guys 🎉
Thank you!!
Great video format, I hope to see more of it! Love the sound you made with your new pedals.
Please make this into a series! This was actually amazing!!! Very cool content and great to watch 3 people get creative as well as celebrate some great music history :)
Damn! You nailed it! Above all the to tones/sounds/effects you managed to captured the spirit of a Beach Boys song and it made me smile like a kid a Christmas it's so damn good.
Omg this should be released! This is a damn hit! 2 days??? Are u kidding??? This is as awesome as many of The Beach Boys songs! Have they heard this??? This is total magic. Get it released! Come on JHS guy u have some juice!!!! Great job!
This was really, really, really good! I enjoyed every minute. The process was fun to watch and the final product is exemplary!
Please do more of this. I loved all of this.
Where do y'all get the sheer audacity to be this insanely awesome???!!!
This was really cool to see these guys create. Very inspiring. And I agree with others, what a great way to showcase gear.
Wow, what a nice song, and great job by Chris, Josh and Rhett.
Thank you! May 24th it’ll be streaming under my name.
I think this is my new favorite "Beach Boys" song! Great job guys!
I can't handle how awesome this is. So well done on so many levels!
First...it was super fun watching you guys put this all together. A creative process like this is always amazing to see. Second....DAMN that song sounds fresh! Excellent job everyone! It truly sounds like something that The Beach Boys wrote & recorded.
Hey thank you! It’s coming out on May 24th under my name. The song (and album) is called “As Long As I’ve Got Music.”
@@ChrisCronMusic Excellent! Looking forward to it. 🤘🤘
One of the best sales pitch I have ever heard or seen. Ace.
Great job guys! How fantastic it is to hear a new 1960s style Beach Boys song written and performed in 2024.
Thanks Pete! There are more where this came from. I’m releasing an album of Beach Boys covers/originals and mashups, including this song “As Long As I’ve Got Music”, on May 24th, under my name, Chris Cron. Hope you like it!
That bridge is sublime. Great fun boys. Do more please
Awesome video! Love the concept! Man this ES-335 look and sound great!!!
This is great! As someone who has spent countless hours putting down backing vocals on tracks, watching Chris Cron do all these amazing harmony-parts is amazing! What a talented guy! This was so fun to watch!
I liked most the reminder to got listen to pet sounds. Amazing track, guys! So fun to watch - sounds great.
I complained once to my Sweetwater rep that there was no Bit O Honey in my candy, and ever since then I get bags of just Bit O Honey. Love you Robb, you’re the man.
You guys totally nailed this. I actually got goosebumps from the vocal performance from Chris. Amazing stuff!
thank you!!
He nails the Beach Boys vibe. He should be touring with a Beach Boys cover band!
so rad , thanks for sharing! My favorite parts are all the layering, and the use of so many sounds!
WOW! That was incredible! I love videos about how songs are created...... and then to hear the product at the end of the vid was so cool. The song really has the Beach Boys vibe, with a modern touch. Great job, Josh, Chris, Rhett and the folks helping you capture the magic. Is there a whole album coming?
Props to the editing team
This was just great!! The Beach Boys will forever be at the top of the greatest pop music I know of. You guys killed it!!!
"We just need John Stamos." 😂
Fantastic! More please.
Great work guys🎉 I love the Song 🤘🏻😜 This video was inspiring 💡
Great content guys, prob best video you’ve made!! I’ve ordered the Keely 12 sting and rotary pedals!!
Way to go, team! This was truly fantastic. Love that you all care about keeping the focus on the music!
thank you!!!
Reminds me of one of my favorite Beach Boys songs, “Please Let Me Wonder.” This whole video is amazing!!!
My favorite thing about this song is the substantiveness of the lyrics. When Josh Scott said the song was about a Sweetwater sales engineer I thought he was joking.
Lovely! Looovelyyy! Thanks guys! Did I mention I love it?
Loved it all, such a god idea to use the pedals for percussion!!!
Wow! Dude that song was amazing!! Totally nailed the Beach Boys' sound! Loved it! 👍👍👍
Great job - very authentic vibe and feel.. Love Pet Sounds....
Chris Cron totally channeled Carl Wilson on those vocals. Amazing!❤
Knocked it out of the park.
Holy shit that, was so much fun! You guys know you killed it. Great use of products, a groovy little jingle for Sweetwater and some excellent production. I appreciate you guys for making things fun.
Great reminder of the fun creative process in recording. It takes me back to making my favorite recordings, and all the inspirations that led to unique sounds and parts that were not part of the song originally, but the recording wouldn’t be complete without them.
Vocals so good, I literally got chills remembering Brian. Well done!
You guys nailed it. Very entertaining to watch as well. Chris is getting a little Motown there at the end - can we get a “wall of sound” song next?
Amazing talent! Chris Cron is about to get a lot more hits to his pages. Thanks for sharing a great session!
So awesome!! The first line “I never left California…” and the way the intro vocals and music just drop to that first line brings us right that California dream and Beach Boys vibe kinda like Please Let Me Wonder 💕
❤ the musician that Rhett has become! So musical and “in the pocket”. In-service of the song and not incendiary guitar.
Josh, you put out some fantastic content. Kudos, man. In an internet filled with swill, your stuff is consistently educational and entertaining.
Guys, Congratulations, that`s a wrap-And an absolute blast to watch. The best bit is seeing Josh get almost warm n fuzzy..
beautiful song, you guys are incredibly talented ❤
Great job !I enjoy this so much !!
Well done, lads. from the new pedals and amp to a great song.
Mis más sinceras felicitaciones por el excelente y maravilloso trabajo que habéis realizado. Preciosa canción ❤
Brilliant! Simply brilliant!
so nuts that you all got to put this out. I lost it at the big dogs joke
This is absolutely stunning !! Great job !!!
Absolutely amazing guys! Great song! Looks like a lot of fun
The song turned out well. Initially I thought it leaned pretty heavily on "Don't worry baby", but I can pick out melodoc and rhythmic things that were borrowed from other songs, but that just made it sound more Beach Boy like. Chris does a great job with those harmonies, it certainly catches the flavor of the source material.
Thank you!
So cool.
Great vid
Amazing composition, amazing result. Cool 60's vibes. 🏄☮
This is so sick! I loved seeing the creative process along with all the technical stuff!
A job well done, great song 👍🏼
Ok, where to start on this beautifully done episode. The song is fantastic. The pedals are knockout awesome and you all just made a stellar song and episode. Well done.
Absolute gem of a video guys. 👏🏼👏🏼
This is about the coolest thing I’ve seen on RUclips in a while.
That was fantastic.... great job....
Yeah, that'll work !! I was a teenager in the late '60s and yes, you've got the whole Beach Boys vibe.
Phenomenal! What more can be said. Do more of these. Fun, interesting, informative, and entertaining.
Guess I liked it😀
Verry nice! And well done! And a good insight how ton construct a 60s song!
Wow! Al I can say is this is a musical masterpiece! Great work gentlemen and congrats on such an extraordinary musical achievement.
