Whatever you do be passionate and enjoy it like this guy!
I just can't get over how many great sounds you get out of such a "modest" setup. Tele, great amp, couple pedals, your AMAZING playing and BOOM. super tone. As a clarinet player myself I love the pedal case. hahaha. So ganster!!!
This dude's playing is just always in the zone in all of these demos.
Really dig your playing. Thanks for the rig stories and demo!
Bro loves throwing bill withers in his jams…and we’re here for it
I'd like you to dig into the mods you made to the wah. The slow sweep on it is fantastic.
Great video - very interested in your Jordan Boss Tone mods!
That would be a fun video to make!
“It just sounds like a broken speaker!”
Huge smile.
:)
It’s really inspiring to see how happy your tones make you!
Love this rig! Super flexible and can be carried into the venue in a single go. And that Tele is exceptional!
It's the tele. The pedals aren't even that spectacular. It's how the guitar reacts to them so wonderfully. Rig wouldn't work so well with a strat or a double humbucker guitar...well maybe a strat
Simple and flexible rigs are all about set list really. If you play a lotta stuff that is similar enough in genre or even just in effects used, you can consolidate your rig down to the essentials.
That was a rad jam of Little Wing there at the end. I’m definitely poaching some of those licks bro.
That's a smart, simple setup. I like it.
More on the amp please, sounds 👍🏻🎶
I was hoping for that comment ;)
The speaker sounds great! What is it :)?
He looks so happy talking about old times
your statement about sounding like a broken speaker reminds me of the first time I heard a distortion pedal (mid 1960's) I thought that the guy had blow is speaker in his amp.
Love your energetic and very dynamic playing💜🤘 and it's awesome to watch how exited you are about your first rig!
Jay, love your enthusiasm. Keep smiling.
Ok, it's obvious this guy can play some guitar! Bot more importantly, thus guy is a tone chaser. What's a tone chaser? That's someone who finds the sweet spot regardless of what gear you
put in their hands. The sweet spot of any unplugged electric guitar, any guitar amp or any guitar pedal. A combination of magic in the fingers and the ability to tweak the tone pots of any signal altering device that comes after it so that the magic of the fingers still comes out of the speakers. Very nice tones and inspiring video!
Love the Reverb dying down every time you roll off the volume. 😎
Awesome rig and great playing and tones as always! This was really fun to hear about Jay, thanks for sharing. Both the ProCo and the fuzz were ridiculously nice, I loved how they cleaned up too.
Love love love that amp! I've also discovered that the rat (1981 for me) is such a good and versatile low to mid gain od. Reacts really nicely with single coils and the volume knob. Even playing at a church with (almost) five million instruments the eq just sits perfectly in the mix.
Thanks for another great video!
I never got into wah pedals because the sweep was to fast and severe. I like your wah!
My favorite trem is on the ac30.
You forgot to mention the tone nobody can ever just buy, and that is the tone you worked so hard to get into your fingers. I’m a fan!
Beautiful in its simplicity. Great job!
How bout a lesson on your Hendrix’s double stop licks?
Best Sounding Tele that you have Jay!!!
Jay... Hey man, that was great that you get your old amp again :0)
Dude you really inspire me. You have that sound you want to achieve that’s stuck in your head and you do everything possible like tweaking pedals and amps to get it. And that Tele sounds fab on every position. I always had this question about every older Tele including yours, are the necks thinner from top to bottom? They look so skinny and me having smaller hands it seems like it would be easier to play.
Ahhh that dream middle pickup!
Nice! Some RAT love! I use mine the same way. RATs are fun. Killer rig man!
Definitely want to hear more about the amp and that rat! Haven’t heard many people use the rat in low gain settings
That's the angriest take on "Little Wing" I've ever heard. Pretty cool. Very different and original.
And lo, 1,500 ProCo Rats were sold in one day.
Aren't they already?
Count me among one of those 1500, bought and paid for
@@tommurphy3188 Welcome to Team Rat!
Great video. Beautiful stuff indeed !
Dr Jay's magic briefcase!
I've been trying to persuade my guitarist friends that unless they are a hired session gun for a big name or in a successful independent band, they don't need 4 billion pedals and handwired super expensive amps and pre-CBS Strats.
Some of them have never played a gig in their life and they have more Strymons than a Hillsong tour.
It's a losing battle but I shall persist.
The heart wants what it wants.
@@WTF-Cubing Yeah I know, I know. I mean I just bought another tubescreamer-style drive so maybe I should just leave them be...worse things to spend $ on
Was the boss tone the kind you would plug into your guitar. That’s the one I had,worked great on my SG.
I'm the same Jay, I'm red/green color blind as well.
That Focusrite pre is a rarely seen item.
The guitar and amp are killer. Really nice tremolo on the amp.
Fun vid. Great playing. You've got me wanting to put my old RAT back on my board. Thanks Jay
I love my vintage RAT. it cleans up so well
They are the best!
Hey thumbs up for Tapestry! Wish they were still a Two Rock dealer. Does that pedalboard case mean you've been holding out on us with the clarinet solos??
Vancouver isn't ready for my clarinet chops bro, haha :)
Fabulous playing and great sounds.Thanks Jay
I like the wah travel.
Awesome lil rig!
I don’t care to “dig into your fuzz..” 🤣🤣
But I enjoy your content.
Great pedalboard: tiny but extremely juicy! A lesson in minimalism: know how to make your good pedals work, and you wont need a huge pedal board! How do you power it? Batteries?
Wow, really a fantastic video! So many times actually more is less
Can you do a video just of that fuzz? How you created it like case etc?
Perfect.
When I saw you play in HK you had an M9.
Ah, I remember that thing! Lots of great memories of HK, where did we meet?
On the EP boost the dip switches inside allow you to set the flavor with or without the +4db boost when set to 0% and on.
Depends... the v1 of the EP boost didn’t have that dip switch, where later ones did.
@Patrick Hughes is right, that feature was added after I bought mine 👍
@@hughesp hmm well I learned something today!
This is soooo cooool! Have you tried using this board in recording?
Also, how do you get your gear knowledge before when there was no RUclips before? Because when I was just starting, around late 90's to early 2000's, I just have the Zoom505 gigging. The patches I got were from website with forums.
Definitely have used that rig in the studio!
I was really into tweaking sounds ever since my dad taught me how to repair a fuzz pedal. I worked in a guitar shop through college, so that also helped we really get familiar with all the different sounds and options out there :)
@@JayLeonardJ Wow! That's great! You being in a guitar shop, exposed with other music gears, particularly amps and probably guitar tabs as well, giving you the edge in learning.
Have you always been a Telecaster guy rather than the Strat or other types of guitar?
Im subs to u because of this video simply great sound and simple
So cool Jay! Loved hearing the stories behind the choices, and love your passion. What a great rig and appreciated how you maxed a lot of tones without a crazy complex rig. What was the preamp and why is it there?
The Preamp is a Focusrite ISA. I used it to juice my Cabinet mic :)
How about some info on your use of the preamp?
If you’re ever in the market for a 59 Bassman I’d love to sell it to a guy like you.
Out of the hands of a collector and into the hands of a player.
Great amp, man.
“This one goes…. Wah?”
Hahaha.
Amazing tones!!! I am currently rocking a Goodsell super 17 mark IV, they are amazing sounding amps. But you made me think that I now have to get a RAT again! A vintage white face Rat may be hard to find, and I loved your Jam Rattler demo...do you recommend the Rattler? Maybe a proco Fat Rat? What do you think?
This is great, thanks!
Goodsell. Very cool. Is Richard still building amps?
I hope so. Wonderful box!
I keep occasionally pulling out my ProCo Rat (same era as yours) and trying to make it work, but it cuts bass (which really bothers me in a pedal) and makes my tone sound 2 dimensional and flat compared to my foundation tone. This makes me want to dig it out and try once again because it just seems to enhance your tone rather than completely change it.
Great video.
So cool!
My initials are also JLJ
Also named J
You are a Beast
ever used the jhs colourbox or crayon? i've used it for a 'broken-speaker' sound similar to your fuzz.
Love the Colourbox!! Such a useful piece of gear :)
Hi Jay - I have a Tele and an amp. If you would have only money for one piece of gear, what would you get?
What would you compare the delay pedal; that was used in this video; be compared to in the current keeley market of pedals? Thanks for the video:)
Do you still have the gear you went through music college with? Would be cool to see
College is where I did most of my guitar pedal experimentations! My roommate was a huge gear guy that was always bringing something amazing to the apartment and we would constantly swap, borrow, and flip gear constantly.. A lot of what I know about pedals was learned there and my board was definitely always in flux :) After I graduated and started working professionally, I would end of selling most of the really pricey and fancy pieces and simplified everything down to the more compact and simple board I used here.
👍👍👍
Always interesting to me how high the treble cut on the rat can go and still sound so bright.
Tele mit bigsby soo tasty 😋
14:29 when I turn off the video because it's too good for me to try and emulate...
The day anyone in my family buys me a pedal, my life will be complete. Don't see it happening at all though. 15 years of playing guitar, and not one pedal as a gift. Got a bunch of useless cologne though
Maybe your family thought you sounded great already but needed something for the "funk" .... 4th POSITION!
Carlo Delallana lmaoooo you bastard!
Still goin through the ZenTour??
Yes 👍
Your first gigging guitar was a 68' Tele. WTF?
Yeah, lucky me. It found it's way onto my lap when I was in college and I never let it go.
JayLeonardJ It’s a beaut. A standard routed tele is my next “investment” I think. I’ve got a 72’ Deluxe, but I need that copper plated bridge pickup in my life.
So painful to see the rig you've spent thousands on...and realise that you made the wrong choices with every pedal, guitar and amp! I see this as an A grade rig, I could have gotten for a fraction of what I've spent on getting inferior tones...🙆🏼♂️
