The blur on the top of the Marshall cab is something Pete drew on it… I’ll leave you to guess what it is, suffice to say we thought it best to blur it. 😂. If you know Pete, you’ll know what it is. 🍆
Interesting concept! It would be interesting to see if the individually favored pedals got along nicely with one another. There are pedals that i love on their own, but which do not play well with others.
Fair play for your patience. The football references were really starting to get on my nerves by the end of it. My first negative comment on this channel!
Most pedals have a sweet spot where they sound good. Great pedals have several. With Strymon you're paying for both quality and versatility. Good Behringer pedals are amazing for the price though.
Absolutely, Most FX are finding the sweet spot, the Strymon is trying to pick which sweet spot, @@Stonemeister. Its such a great thing to have when you want to quickly dial something so you can just play
Pretty much my thinking. But in a pound for pound fight, I got the Behringer for £14 second hand. If it has 1 great sound for that price it’s a bargain. I’m not sure it will last though.
I really appreciate these kind of videos. That “zing” is what I’ve been trying to describe in my head that I didn’t like about my own plate reverb. It’s the closest to what I like but man, that’s really helped out with what I’ve been dealing with! So thanks guys!
Oh yeah, I absolutely love Rabbea’s ambient playing. He is just so effortlessly musical and deeply soulful, I am effected by it regardless of the style he is playing. Truly unique and a pure pleasure to hear.
Very cool to see Rabea's instant affinity with the Blue Sky, familiar territory I guess. It's not just a better thing, it's completely about how it makes you personally feel.
Every single time the strymon bluesky came back on it brought a smile to my face... One day I will get my hands on one, but until then I think hearing Rabea play through it is good enough 🔥🔥
I did this with my eyes closed, genuinely participating. My favourite by quite a distance was the Strymon. The JHS and GFI are second and third. This was quite helpful guys, I appreciate it. Thank you.
my God that tone is freaking insane. just a clean amp with reverb. holy moly! well done Rabea! edit: this was hilarious too. i was laughing the whole time. thanks guys!
I love those blank JHS pedals. Funnily enough, I think the marketing behind them is great haha, a pedal with no marketing or branding on it, super clean, almost the "apple" of pedals. Look good and sound good.
Honestly, Behringers digital delays and reverbs are very very under underestimated. Very often the number # 1 choice amongst shoegazers for example. Its the same with the Zoom multi fx units (The Ms-50G and the -70 CDR) wich are like 100 bucks and packed with a bunch of other effects
@@MikaelKonradssonThanks for the opinion "youandyou" here is another thought ? Ever try Seymour Duncan Sfx-09 Double Back Compressor Guitar Effects Pedal. If so howz zit ? HOWZIT? CHEers booze.
The amount of incredible pedals we have now is almost overwhelming I love the graphic in the bottom right corner showing us which we're currently hearing!
Rabea has an amazing ear.. and I completely concur with his tastes.. choice and ear! Great Job! I am now going to buy the Strymon Blue Sky! And probably also the JHS that lasted 4 rounds. Both Great pedals! Great shootout!
A great video. I especially enjoyed Lee’s look of puzzled anxiety as the Behringer briefly gave the Blue Sky a run for it’s money. Wow, the Blue Sky is good though. I’m just off to check what’s in my piggy bank!
You know it's 1 am in Japan and I just got myself another beer, opened it, saw there's a new andertons video so I clicked it, and man! Rabea's playing is soooo good! and the football analogy just made me laugh! Wonderful video as always! Soo chilling to watch andertons and drink beer!
Always enjoy these videos thanks. I think it’s better when you don’t give hints how good or bad a product is though. Rather than telling Rabea he is playing something high end it’s best to keep it a mystery so that it doesn’t influence him.
May I say, I love that you took time to go into the settings in real time. It is very helpful to hear Bea say make it duller or take off the top end and watch which settings correspond to his requests.
The RV-6 is a great pedal - save your money... but then I am in no position to tell you :) - please buy whatever you want and like. Tastes are different
That "cut highs + bump up mix" is perfect tool for background guitars. It's most inspiring sound I could choose. One thing I experience alot is that reverbs designed for stereo rarely sound good in mono
my take away is that the strymon is top notch especially with how the signal path runs through it... but the JHS reverb was my fav overall because of how good it sounded with minimal functions to get there.
Ease of use is such an underrated factor in pedals. A pedal should have three controls max and not multi function - it just becomes distracting. Really like what JHS is doing with the 3 series for this reason
Couldn’t have had a better player to demo these! Rabea and ambient tones is just great! I figured a reverb vid would be boring but was sucked in by the sounds and playing
Wow, a really nice video. I have the BlueSky, but didnt used it for a few months (i wanted a smaller reverb pedal). Since yesterday i use it again and it ist his feeling like a home coming. Also the Behringer was suprising good.
Nicest noodling I've heard in a while! Yeah I've been down the reverb rabbit hole; I'm now saving for a twin reverb. Thanks for the entertaining video.
Super cool. Love these. I have been just using my amps reverb but after seeing everyone use a reverb pedal I watched this to help me narrow down some options. The JHS really impressed me with the quality at that price point.
The BOSS Reverb also has a digital delay from the DD pedal series in it, also, there's a hidden setting in the "Shimmer" mode, unlike anything I've ever heard!!
Brilliantly entertaining video. Some were pretty neck n neck. I think the Blackhole didn’t get it’s fair time to mess with and adjust but wasn’t surprised that the bluesky won. I was surprised at how many rounds the Behringer and JHS made it considering they’re more basic or affordable to the big dogs.
I was extremely surprised with how good the Dynamic Plate reverb in the HX Stomp sounds. It's right up there with Strymon. Also impressed with the the Dynamic Hall.
Great shootout! Been waiting for you guys to do a proper reverb comparison. Blue Sky does sound fantastic. A little bummed to see the RV-6 lose so quickly 😅 I think it’s hall setting is killer. Great delay too. Awesome every man pedal. But yeah, I gotta start saving for a Strymon!
I had to make my own sub shootout according to which one I can afford. Best side by side test I've seen. Really helps Rabea knows how to use the effect and has a pros ear. I don't have many effects pedals so I'm selective. The fact the Behringer was even in the running with the Strymon says a lot. My current budget set-up is a Monoprice 5w tube amp w/Celestion speaker and the Behringer DR600 pedal. $200 total and it sounds excellent. Good to know you really are getting a premium sound for your money with the Strymon, you aren't just a snob.
The fact that the WHSP won the fuzz and the 3 series hall almost won this make me feel 1000 times better about the choices I made deciding on and buying those pedals haha
Well you know, the football references are fun and all to some degree, but here it's just too much. And I like both Andertons and football :) Great video concept, as someone said - you should do this with Bea with all the "standard" effect pedals, it's really interesting! :)
What was on the amp? 😂 I totally agree that the bigsky makes the guitar sound better, the buffer is really nice. I don't need a buffer at the start of the chain if I use the bigsky one, two makes the signal too bright.
This validates my ear and judgement regarding overall value (function, features, etc) . I have the Skylar which is a killer reverb pedal and does the ambient stuff really well too. Canadian prices with taxes in: Skylar: $310.75 vs. Blue Sky: $463.30 vs. UA Golden: $620.37. No brainer imo.
The blur on the top of the Marshall cab is something Pete drew on it… I’ll leave you to guess what it is, suffice to say we thought it best to blur it. 😂. If you know Pete, you’ll know what it is. 🍆
Was it purple, though?
@@Basement_Dweller only if you hold it too tight
Dick jokes, classic lol
Well, it's quite visible throughout the video, until you removed the top cab and blurred it
@@Xstractorhow is it visible when the top cab is literally on top throughout the video?
Here's an idea for the channel: do similar shoutouts (delays, overdrives, distortions etc.) and then create a pedalboard with Rebea's choices.
Then auction it for charity!
Interesting concept! It would be interesting to see if the individually favored pedals got along nicely with one another. There are pedals that i love on their own, but which do not play well with others.
Fkn OATH.. More shoot-outs like this !!
Rebea’s favorite is who is paying him to say it. Dude can shred, but also has so much gear in his favorite box it dilutes his opinion.
@@defh2oI don't get it, it's a blind test here right?
This “Winner stays on” series with Rabea is awesome! You guys should do one of this for every main effect.
I second this.
I'd love to watch a similar episode but with overdrives/distortion pedals !
Rabea has a really good ear and taste.
As long as Lee does a hint of research to dial in the pedals better. Kind of stupid if you’re not optimizing the benefits of each pedal 😊
@@redwood-in-stereo true
Rabea is such a good player. I love hearing him play slower more moody stuff.
You’re gonna love his grinding gears vol 2 then
@@gustavoramos3572😂😂😂 whyy?
This was great fun. Genuinely I had no idea what was what. Lee didn’t really give anything away because I know nothing about football 😂😂
Are you going to try out the Wes Borland Zargon dual reverb?
You and me both brother I’ve never watched football
Fair play for your patience. The football references were really starting to get on my nerves by the end of it. My first negative comment on this channel!
Bea's playing is too good for this because he makes everything sound beautiful. Easily my favourite player for chill ambient stuff
JHS 3 Series has now done phenomenal in both the Fuzz and Reverb blind shootouts.
Yup, that JHS is the real deal. 👍
You can tell he obsesses about his pedals, and it shows.
Must be the box!
Yup, I have the JHS 3-series Hall Reverb and it's replaced the EHX Oceans 11 on my board despite having 10% of the features. They're awesome.
I have jhs 3 n im liking it
The fact a Behringer can nearly go toe to toe with the Strymon is pretty mad
Surprises always come when you judge with your ears and not your eyes
Most pedals have a sweet spot where they sound good. Great pedals have several. With Strymon you're paying for both quality and versatility. Good Behringer pedals are amazing for the price though.
Their engineering is astonishing, sadly so is the ego of their owner.
Absolutely, Most FX are finding the sweet spot, the Strymon is trying to pick which sweet spot, @@Stonemeister.

2 things I learned here: Bea hates Zing, and football.
Pete laughing in the background also killed me
I could listen to Rabea playing clean tones all day long. What a player he is. 🤘👍
I really appreciate these kind of videos. That “zing” is what I’ve been trying to describe in my head that I didn’t like about my own plate reverb. It’s the closest to what I like but man, that’s really helped out with what I’ve been dealing with!
So thanks guys!
Oh yeah,
I absolutely love Rabbea’s ambient playing. He is just so effortlessly musical and deeply soulful, I am effected by it regardless of the style he is playing.
Truly unique and a pure pleasure to hear.
Rabea's playing here is just brilliant. Super inspiring
Rabea's clean playing with the Blue Sky is the best sounding guitar playing on the channel ever ❤
Could listen to Rabea noodle around like this for hours. He MUST make a soundscape album.
Very cool to see Rabea's instant affinity with the Blue Sky, familiar territory I guess.
It's not just a better thing, it's completely about how it makes you personally feel.

You guys should think about doing more of these. They’re a lot of fun! It’s great to hear the thought process of a musician as talented as Rabea.
The JHS impressed me but also the Behringer DR-800 (round #7) which was my favorite round.
I love those blank JHS pedals. Funnily enough, I think the marketing behind them is great haha, a pedal with no marketing or branding on it, super clean, almost the "apple" of pedals. Look good and sound good.
Always a fun and good video when Rabea is there. He made every pedal sound glorious just with his playing, phrasing and touch.
The commitment to the soccer analogy is legendary. Well done team.
It was SO stupid 😞
Yea I thought it got old quick. We could’ve easily had this video in under 30mins without that fluff.
That was fun, amazing how the Behringer was a serious contender with the Strymon!
watching Rabea reviews is dangerous. it all sounds good.
Exactly. I was like "Oh that sounds good, Oh this sounds good" and then with blue sky i was like "that's it I'm getting this one". Dangerous indeed.
The Behringer held it's own against the Strymon Blue Sky
The captain's reaction was priceless, utter disbelief
Weird, I thought it was better than some, but absolutely not close to the Strymon
Honestly, Behringers digital delays and reverbs are very very under underestimated. Very often the number # 1 choice amongst shoegazers for example. Its the same with the Zoom multi fx units (The Ms-50G and the -70 CDR) wich are like 100 bucks and packed with a bunch of other effects

Love these series!
My reverb too is a Bluesky V1, and YES! My research didn't fail me either, it's like there is a reverb orchestra with the Bluesky.
Love mine too!
Highly enjoyed hearing this play out. These shootouts say a lot, not only about the pedals but also about the quality of Rabea's ears.
Man i could just chill all day listening to Rabea test reverb pedals. Absolute beautiful tones
Rabea has an amazing ear.. and I completely concur with his tastes.. choice and ear! Great Job! I am now going to buy the Strymon Blue Sky! And probably also the JHS that lasted 4 rounds. Both Great pedals! Great shootout!
Amazingly presented video, well done Lee.
Bea, you can hear really well, top player mate
A great video. I especially enjoyed Lee’s look of puzzled anxiety as the Behringer briefly gave the Blue Sky a run for it’s money. Wow, the Blue Sky is good though. I’m just off to check what’s in my piggy bank!
The Strymon sounded way more 3d and reverb-like than most, that was really awesome
Totally agree, it was buttery smooth with no artefacts. Great pedal.
The modulation on it really gives you that 3d space. Good reverb, for sure.
I feel like it changed the tone of the guitar too much
GFI is stellar too though. should have compared hall instead of plate in my opinion...
Really liked the Fathom, Behringer, JHS and the Strymon the most. Special bonus was hearing Rabea playing
You know it's 1 am in Japan and I just got myself another beer, opened it, saw there's a new andertons video so I clicked it, and man! Rabea's playing is soooo good! and the football analogy just made me laugh! Wonderful video as always! Soo chilling to watch andertons and drink beer!
The shootout videos are peak Andertons video. This winner stays on variation is a cool twist. Really nice video guys. Love the humor too.
I'm on the reverb pedal hunt. This is exactly what I needed!
If you got the money, get the bigsky.
@@harrymanilow the ua tbh
I'm getting that 3 series pedal immediately.
Always enjoy these videos thanks. I think it’s better when you don’t give hints how good or bad a product is though. Rather than telling Rabea he is playing something high end it’s best to keep it a mystery so that it doesn’t influence him.
I could listen to Rabea play like this all day long. ♥
No Ventris? JHS with a major showing here, respect Josh!
Very interesting. Strymon is the hands down winner for me as well.
More blind testing pedal shootouts please!
May I say, I love that you took time to go into the settings in real time. It is very helpful to hear Bea say make it duller or take off the top end and watch which settings correspond to his requests.
I was happy to see a comparison between the Blue Sky and the RV-6. Mostly because I have the RV-6 and I don't have a Blue Sky but now I want one.
The RV-6 is a great pedal - save your money... but then I am in no position to tell you :) - please buy whatever you want and like. Tastes are different
That Blue Sky is a pretty dreamy pedal to play through! So good to hear these pedals in a shoot out.
Lee spending the whole Video not saying a single word about reverb is just hilarious 😂
Absolutely brilliant, keep it up
But I learned loads about soccer/football.
This was great. Rabea's playing was a huge part of that but it was super interesting to see the differences like that.
Would be awesome to see a follow up video where Rabea dialed them all in to his liking and A/B’d again!
Strymon Flint was always been my favorite reverb pedal. Great Plate and Spring settings.
That "cut highs + bump up mix" is perfect tool for background guitars.
It's most inspiring sound I could choose.
One thing I experience alot is that reverbs designed for stereo rarely sound good in mono
you know apart from all the amazing reverb pedals... i'd just love a chord chart of everything Bea is playing. those are absolutely beautiful
My two favorites were the two that took the top slot. That Strymon is just gorgeous, but I'd be more than happy with the JHS hall reverb.
my take away is that the strymon is top notch especially with how the signal path runs through it... but the JHS reverb was my fav overall because of how good it sounded with minimal functions to get there.
Ease of use is such an underrated factor in pedals. A pedal should have three controls max and not multi function - it just becomes distracting. Really like what JHS is doing with the 3 series for this reason
It was close for a moment with the Behringer. Just shows you when you don't listen with your eyes!
I have the 3series reverb and it’s honestly one is my favorite pedals
I love the Strymon Flint. It is a great Reverb pedal and also has a separate Tremolo side. Two great pedals in one box.
I do too.
Couldn’t have had a better player to demo these! Rabea and ambient tones is just great! I figured a reverb vid would be boring but was sucked in by the sounds and playing
Yes! Friday got better just as I was scouting reverb pedals...and working if you're looking over my shoulder, boss
I think comparing hall and plate is tricky! Definitely different in the reflections. When there was options to select Hall that may have been closer!
Wow, a really nice video. I have the BlueSky, but didnt used it for a few months (i wanted a smaller reverb pedal). Since yesterday i use it again and it ist his feeling like a home coming.
Also the Behringer was suprising good.
Nicest noodling I've heard in a while! Yeah I've been down the reverb rabbit hole; I'm now saving for a twin reverb. Thanks for the entertaining video.
i know there are a lot of pedals out there but wish we had seen the neunaber immerse included here!
Strymon just never lets you down. Always awesome sounding
Previous pedals were set to Hall but Walrus Fathoms was set to Plate - just FYI. Great playing though!
You must have the Walrus Fathom set to the hidden 5th setting that includes delay. There is no delay in the regular plate setting.
Super cool. Love these. I have been just using my amps reverb but after seeing everyone use a reverb pedal I watched this to help me narrow down some options. The JHS really impressed me with the quality at that price point.
The BOSS Reverb also has a digital delay from the DD pedal series in it, also, there's a hidden setting in the "Shimmer" mode, unlike anything I've ever heard!!
What do you mean by hidden setting in the "Shimmer" mode? Can you elaborate? I have the RV-6 on my board.
Shimmer verb. Max out everything except set tone to 0. ;)
Love this type of video. Bea such a great player and personality on screen.
I’ve been really enjoying my Strymon Cloudburst, amazing pedal !
Love the JHS Reverb. Super underrated

DOPE video lads...Behrininger held its own for someone buying their first reverb pedal..!
I literally set my Blue Sky V1 to Rabea's settings and instantly saved it as my favorite preset. Absolutely beautiful tones.
I was extremely surprised with how good the Dynamic Plate reverb in the HX Stomp sounds. It's right up there with Strymon. Also impressed with the the Dynamic Hall.
those ones are from ex digitech employees
Just the best channel on RUclips!! Bea is a ridiculously good player, Captain is a fantastic host. Wish you guys were in the states.

The Blue Sky is tough to beat. I pair it with the Astral Destiny on my live board. You can create some huge sounds with those 2 together

The fact that the WHSP won the fuzz and the 3 series hall almost won this make me feel 1000 times better about the choices I made deciding on and buying those pedals haha
3 series hall is one of my faves, it’s a great pedal
Every time I hear Bea play, I'm inspired to pick up my guitar...
And I am inspired to buy pedals.
Came for the playing , stayed for the playing, beautiful.
The catalinbread soft focus is an incredible reverb but only when the modulation is dimed. Lee had the settings super low
I love the reverbs in the Kemper!
Love the ongoing footie comparison commentary! Keep it up! 😊
I'm a simple man. I see Rabea and I watch the whole video and like it at the end.
On another subject, that strat looks and sounds killer!
uggggh that laboured analogy.
what a great video and playing !
Well you know, the football references are fun and all to some degree, but here it's just too much. And I like both Andertons and football :) Great video concept, as someone said - you should do this with Bea with all the "standard" effect pedals, it's really interesting! :)
This is awesome! I tend to stick to amp reverb, but I thoroughly enjoyed this
What was on the amp? 😂 I totally agree that the bigsky makes the guitar sound better, the buffer is really nice. I don't need a buffer at the start of the chain if I use the bigsky one, two makes the signal too bright.
Bea + Strat = Awesome 🔥. I absolutely love it ❤
Get Neunaber pedals at Andertons and do a shoot out with the WET reverb and the Blue Sky
Enjoy Bea's playing but could have done without the Captain trying to bias a decision
I love this format! Thanks to all involved. Very useful…
This validates my ear and judgement regarding overall value (function, features, etc) . I have the Skylar which is a killer reverb pedal and does the ambient stuff really well too. Canadian prices with taxes in: Skylar: $310.75 vs. Blue Sky: $463.30 vs. UA Golden: $620.37. No brainer imo.
