    I was watching this just because I like listening to Rob and Lee while in another tab I was going through my email, but I heard one of the pedals that instantly caught my attention and I switched back over to see which one it was. I now have a Union Swindle on my shopping list. Very rarely do I hear a drive/fuzz that I think stands out in a way I like, but (even though I primarily play metal) I absolutely loved that Swindle.

  • @huscarl149
    @huscarl149 5 лет назад +2

    The More pedal that rob is playing should be the last effect in line that is feeding the input of the tube amp. A high DB boost pedal, running into another pedal like in the video, depending on the amount of boost you have set, will just be clip by the next pedal/buffer in the signal chain, at it's input, thus defeating the high amount of boost you may have set.
    that style of boost running straight into a tube amp can really make the amp sing, and what it's really designed to do.

      Yes, the hat's too smart for the clothes. If you want to wear the bluesman hat you need the bluesman suit, but even then it's the wrong hat - sort of a fat pimp in a shell suit playing holiday camp twelve bars for the grannies. He should wear a onesy and a bobble hat.

    1. Take your existing OD pedal. Adjust your amp or guitar's controls a little. Congrats; you have found a different sound.
    2. Realise that buying a new pedal will not make you a better player / sound better / be happier.
    3. Spend the money you have saved on beer. Unlike your OD pedal, it does need replacing each time you use it.

    I have a theory. Somewhere out there is a book about marketing yourself on the internet. It contains a line something like "It's important to create a recognisable brand for yourself.Always appearing in, for example, a distinctive hat can help you achieve this." Justin Sandacore and Marty Schwartz have read this book. Rob Chapman read it recently. Soon Rob will lend it to Lee, and from around Easter Lee will start appearing in every video wearing a Fez.
