      I would say, practice, dedication and just going for it with oodles of tenacity. He definitely comes accross a fantastic guy. That will help. I would assume that he has the ability to take criticism and turn it into a positive. He is also seems quite humble, but must be strong willed and quietly confident. Anyone that loses weight must have a strong, can do attitude

Seems like I have been wrong all these years. But as far as I remember they sounded total shite. Splendid demo man, as usual. BR, Ig

    Thank the guitar gods for this video. All other videos don't demo it with active pickups. Everyone uses a Fender with low gain. Don't get me a wrong, great for demoing it, but you don't get that thrash or shredding demo. Seems to have some great tone ans fairly clean for how thick and hot it got.

  • @Spidouz
    @Spidouz 6 лет назад +5

    1:17 Oh... digital relays? I thought it was just a selector. Then that's too bad they didn't go the extra miles then to have the relays controlled by midi. It would been interesting for people that use a pedalboard with a switcher and then been able to switch between different setting for each presets. After all, if they already use digital relays, they're half-way there (I know, I know, the second half isn't an easy task, would require a midi controller, midi inputs, etc... but still, that would be nice).

    • @cour1988
      @cour1988 6 лет назад +2

      Phil Smith Not sure if that would have fit in their price point. I’m no expert but I’m sure that would have hiked the price.

    • @Spidouz
      @Spidouz 6 лет назад

      Yeah, maybe... but probably not _that much_. Midi controller are not really expensive in component (probably around $10 or so). The most difficult part would be to see if they would also have memory/recall for the knob positions. That's a way different story than the relays... and that could probably add a bigger cost. But still, I would have like it... I know I like it on my Elektron Analog Drive. So great to easily setup something and save it as a preset to recall later. You change guitar with different pickup load, then you can dial a different setting and save it as another preset and recall them at any time... I personally like this whole "Digitally Controlled Analog Gear", it's the best of both world. YMMV - My 2¢

    How does this pedal affect a distortion pedal’s sound ? Will it tighten it up like it did with the amp ?

      I have one pushing a REVV G4 and it tightens the distortion up very well. drive off, volume at 12 o'clock, and tone at 2 o'clock. I run into a cab sim and it sounds great.

    Can you compare JHS sounds to Boss OD-20?

    Hey Bea just a quick question which reverb pedal do you prefer the strymon bigsky or the boss rv 500

      I know he really loves the Strymon. He has done a whole series on it.

      Both are nice. Strymon is the winner out of the two for me. But you’re going to be paying for that. For the price point, Boss is really nice. But you might find the big sky used for a decent price.
