Such pretty sounds. Side note: if you guys just like, talked for an hour about recording and mixing, I would watch it all.
HA.... i was just thinking how id rather just hear them talk too lol
Absolutely! Please do this. This quality and tone you guys get is incredible
Yes!
Was just thinking exactly this!
I second this.
I used HEAVY distortion on a mandolin through a Marshall with quad box. It sounded awesome - demonic and angelic at the same time. The high harmonics just seemed to ring through on top of all the fuzz.
This is the most optimistic Mogwai tribute song ever. Beautiful job, guys!
Never You Mind is a spellbindingly beautiful track, well done Single Kid Lisa.
EDIT:
Also, that Water From The Sky improv was ace too - The Morning Glory Meteorologists nailed it!
I love this series so much, glad it’s going so well.
Fuzz on acoustic is underrated. I loved this, and Nels Cline is my hero -- just so you know.
Holy s***, guys that was a beautiful track. The melodies were perfect. Can we get an album?!?!? 👏👏👏🔥🔥🔥
“Water from the Sky” was legit awesome
Make an album, or an EP, or something! You folks are awesome
Best end to a video ever!!!!! All of JHS videos have been so well done, but this was special and I so appreciated this as the gift it was. Thank you both!
I would love to see a 'just try stuff' episode where you guys create something like this with just budget/affordable pedals (which is totally doable, Behringer Reverb Machine, Joyo Vision, EHX Satisfaction fuzz, NU>X CORE series, TCE Nether etc etc)
And using other affordable gear too!
It probably would not sound much less in terms of quality. With Budget pedals, you’re getting a close enough if not identical sound from the pedals they’re cloning, but the compromise for price is the component quality. They are more likely to die on you at an inconvenient time if you use them to gig.
They could use Flamma stuff too
just buy used pedals
I love my Taylor nylon! Such a pleasant little guitar.
Also loved what you did with the whammy pedal ... what an unexpectedly sweet sound!
I love this series, it’s become my favourite that you guys do, keep it up!
Always super good fun laid back vibes with you two lol I stayed till the end and the bonus song about rain was just EPIC THANK YOU
Keep these type of videos coming! Love to see the full songwriting process with pedals as the lens.
Fantastic! I've only used delay, reverb, tremolo, and chorus on acoustic before. You folks have shown there is a whole world left to explore. The song and your production are killer! Thanks.
I love what yall are doing, keep the good stuff!
Coming from a huge Wilco fan, you guys knocked it out of the park. Definite Wilco vibe with hints of Sharon Van Etten and Middle Kids. Loved it!
So nice I watched it twice! I love Nick and Addison’s episodes
Exactly what I needed to help survive work today!
this was something really special. i loved the amount of passion that was pumped into this video. ty
You guys are very talented!...great demo and jams! Thanks for this.
Just beautiful music. Thank you.
I really enjoyed this one guys! Thank you for bringing it!
Fantastic and inspired! I especially like that you guys give Wilco so much love. Please keep trying stuff!
i come back to video often. Its my favorite vid this channel has put out and thats saying something. Ive played acoustic for 20 years and have just gotten into electric over the last two. this is a staunch reminder that acoustic is always first in my heart
Best episode ever !!!
Fun to watch and fun to hear.
Very nice tune guys, I'd listen to it on a Sunday morning sippin' coffee...can't wait for the next JTS episode!
This was SOOO GOOD!!! That 5th up part!?! Perfect!! Every sound complimented one another!! More please and thanks! :D Well done guys!!
This was so awesome and I just loved it!!!
Fantastic job guys!
Talent! Fantastic playing and writing. Excellent taste in mixing and arranging. You guys are truly gifted. And so funny!
Great fun here boys, loved it!
Really really really nice tune, very inspiring! The distorted guitar sounded like horns, it had a GodspeedYou!BlackEmperor cosmic noise vibe, but more positive
Thanks for exploring pedals on acoustics, which is what I play all the time. Some really nice ideas here. More pedals on acoustics!
A year on, this is still such an inspirational video. The sounds you guys got are beautiful.
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Best "Just Try Stuff" yet. Great Job!
This was fantastic, great concept even better tune!!
Excellent episode, guys -- and the music you created was pretty special, in my opinion!
And that is why the JHS Show is one of the greatest shows. Comedy, creativity and crazy crooning.
Great episode guys. Loving 'just try stuff'
Best song yet boys. Good job!
Nice, I have recently been sucked into this rabbit hole. I am glad to know I’m not alone.
Wow, the song you've made is simply great! Thanks for showing how to do post-rock-ish stuff using acoustic guitars!
More like this please!!! I loved it.
Finally been waiting on an episode like this I love using pedals with my acoustic
Boy am I glad that you made this video. 20 minutes ago I thought that the bass guitar counted as an electric guitar and I had no idea what rain was. Thanks JHS!!
So glad to see some acoustic guitar content!
Awesome stuff! Man, you guys've got great voices too! More songs, please!
Remember when we used to spend countless hours in the studio just to produce something that sounded ALMOST as good as this track? It's AMAZING how sound technology has advanced.
Great series!
Sounded incredible! Super musical and practical uses of those pedals
Also great ending!
I play lots of solo acoustic shows (well, a lot to ME anyway, could always be more) and I use lots of FX and a looper to try and set myself apart from all the other dudes out there doing the solo acoustic thing. The Duellist actually works super well for distortion and overdrive on acoustic.
It was the comment, "'Should I go to a minor now?" that got me. That was worth the watch...but it was topped by, "Water from the sky..." I never knew what rain was until then. I never knew what sadness was until the minor was played. Well played.
Man guys sounds amazing!
That was really beautiful guys!!!
The bass immediately made my brain hear an early 90's Billy Corgan dropping some lush vocals over this.. Great track.. Aside from a great track, the two of your sensibilities are fantastically chemistry-laden. Kudos fellas, beautiful track.
So glad I stayed until the end!
Fantastic!
great tune. would love to see more on pedals and acoustics. ✌️
Omg that song at the end was EPIC!!!
...DUDEBROS...this was an awesome idea and video...topped off with improv goofball jam...you guys are awesome...
Pedals on acoustic is soo underrated. This was amazing!! More acoustic in the future. Rocking with electric is great, and tons of fun. But it’s nice to switch the vibe up sometimes
GREAT show. Never You Mind was a soulful collaboration - fun and exciting to watch.
I use the Color Box v2 with my Taylor 314 as a preamp. I removed the expression pickup system in the guitar because it died and replaced it with K&K piezo pickups, the Color Box v2 works really well with the piezo pickups. The great thing about the Color Box v2 is that it can serve as a mic pre and as a fuzz box.
It’s always great to go outside the box or your comfort zone and try something different. That’s when you write your best stuff. You guys created a gorgeous song and I’d buy an album of this in a heartbeat. Shameless plug: I decided to do something just like this on my last album called Acoustic Spaces. Except, I took one acoustic with many guitar sounds (an Acoustasonic) and used various pedals to create an all acoustic album of mellow folkish soundscapes. Not so shameless plug: every penny that comes from my music goes to my nephews college savings accounts.
Wow. Just wow. You guys are just so gifted… Sign me up to the Single Kid Lisa fanclub!
But for the love of god, *watch out* for all these guitars falling out of the sky in KC!
We can’t afford to lose the creative force-
NICK LOUX MUST BE PROTECTED AT ALL COSTS!
Great episode boys! Yep primarily I’m a guitarist and for so long usually have started most songs when writing or recording with the guitar being the first instrument I start the writing process on, but recently I’ve pushed myself to start a song process either with a keys/synth part sometimes now I’ll start with Drum grooves/patterns and percussion and build from that an see what develops and comes out, it’s been great and I’ve written various new songs in various genres and feel and is great being creative from different angles and using guitar pedals on vocals, drums, synths and creating what you want instead of what a piece of gear is specifically designed to be used with, if something got an Input and an Output then there’s no reason you can’t really put anything into the signal process and just change the normality up and break any rules, there are no rules really so just do as you feel, nothing really is wrong!! It’s just people usually or expect many things to be used in certain or specific ways cos it’s what they’re used to!! F*** all that be creative and do whatever you want, the results can be fantastic and teach yourself so many new things along the way giving you so much more experiences and knowledge using things in different ways!
Great show and great idea format! Love it as always!! Thanks Steve in Manchester, England.
I compared 5 brands, 18 guitars, 3 shops......Bought a Taylor 414ce-R (cost a fortune) Plays & Sounds like a Dream. Enjoyed this guys. oNe LoVe from NYC
Damn.
Great job guys
That was excellent.
Fantastic song! And I love the witty and respectful dialog in all your videos. I just don't understand why Rhett has so many more followers than JHS.
Feeling some Fleetwood Mack vibe kicking. Great video guys.
Cool track guys!
Beautiful
im saving for the colour box. seems like it sounds good on everything. I'll know soon I hope
Josh Scott - Give these boys a bonus for a spectacular episode, or at least an extra day off.
Nah
@@jhspedals Come on Josh, just raise all your prices by 10 cents and give it up for the boys!
JHS Pedals 🤷♂️😂
@@jhspedals as long as pedals are legal in every State, we should all be good… whatever that means…
The "Just Try Stuff" is sooooo gooooood!!!
It's water from the freaking sky, brilliant!
Great episode y'all!
Great song!
As always, JHS took things way farther (further?) than I usually do. Thanks for making me want to be more adventurous!
I love using light overdrive to spice up the thin, dry sound of DI acoustic guitar. And you can't go wrong with a little (or a lot) of compression.
Farther is physical distance, further is taking something to a higher degree or greater extent :)
Loved the song, the process... JHS seems like a really fun place to work at
Guys you are awesome musicians!
After a month of posting this, I still keep coming back to listen to "Never You Mind". It's such a pretty and carefree tune.
"Water From The Sky" Thanks for the inspiration.
SINGLE KID LISA! So good, they're kidding around in the presentation but it's a really nice tune. Great approach and wonderfully executed! Too talented.
I love whammy on acoustics! That sounds entertaining to hear!
Lol I love watching these when it’s a slow day, I just finished an episode of the boys now I’m gonna watch some jhs 😅
My last show i didn't have my electric so I had to use my acoustic electric. It was wild especially with the big muff. It actually handled really well.
That rain jam at the end was the best part
excellent video
324e or ce is my dream acoustic. Very nice!
"anything in the room? wait! is this legal?" my brain wanting to re-write your scripts. not that was needed because i still want every piece of gear in this episode and then BOOM! this epic ending! 😂
I use a TC Electronic Bodyres, that one knob really sweetens the tone on any acoustic (adjust to tase) and the Clover *Shameless plug* is my “DI box” since it’s got the XLR out. Sometime’s I’ll run a Catalinbread Echorec too, just to give more spatiality to it.
I´ve used same outboard gear for about 14years. I´ll replace when they break. JOBS A GOOD UN
FISHMAN PRO II Preamp + 1987 BOSS CH2B (25€ in a junk shop) + GE7 EQ. I added a TC BODYREZ a couple years ago. No idea what that does but it sounds great. My workhorse is a 300€ Gretch Rancher Jnr with added Fishman Matrix piezo.
I remember putting an acoustic with a Dean Markley soundhole pickup through 70s Big Muff Pi and Memory Man many years ago, but haven’t done that since. I gotta update my acoustic pedalboard now.
you guys are great!
For my 12 and 6 string acoustics I only use 1 pedal a mini sonic stomp into a small mixer then that goes into the P A. The P A has basic reverb, chorus,, and echo effects built in which I add very little. Also all my guitars are through 1 of my AKG wireless bug systems. I tried just a cable once and found I needed way more volume and did not get as natural of a sound. I guess the bug system boosts the sound to where don't need as much volume on the guitar which keeps the electric tone down. Accidentally discover but sure helps the sound considering I use guitars that didn't cost over $150. El cheapo. Amazing sound out of these acoustic/ electrics. I'm trying to sound as acoustic as possible.
No reason why not! I use compressor > Zoom G3 multiFX > chorus > analog delay > tape delay > reverb on my gig pedalboard, and my Martin (usually) sounds pretty decent!
