@@gcb4799 Ooooh, someone scored a nice fuzz. I just bought a nkt275 white dot high gain and oh my LORD. ❤ your band bro. The last record is fantastic and your rig has been a huge inspiration for me.
These dudes are all super nice guys! I saw them in 2014 when they came to St. Louis with Roky Erickson. After their show, I bought a poster and saw Alex by the merch stand and asked if he would sign it. I’m one of those people that would rather die than be one of those pain in the ass fans at a show...but he went out of his way to offer to round up the rest of the band to sign it. He was like “No, seriously, it’ll just take a second!”...then he personalized it with “Rocky, THANKS FOR BEING HERE!!”...(and off the subject, I actually got Roky to sign it too at the end of the night). I have it framed and hanging over my fireplace to this day. I still look at it and think about how cool the Black Angels were. Good times.
I saw them with Roky in Austin and it was an amazing show. They are truly such nice guys. I remember Alex was putting wrist bands on people one year for Psych Fest.
Stoked to see some Black Angels love on Rig Rundown. I do posters for some of their shows, their some of the kindest, funniest and down to earth musicians Ive ever met. True artists.
I’m kind of surprised I’ve never even heard of these dudes before so I’ll definitely have to check their stuff out. Especially since Jake seems like the nicest, sweetest guy on the planet.
Been a big fan of these guys since Passover was released, cant believe it's been 14 years. Great tones, great vibes, good times, and many musically-connected memories!
Ive somehow just discovered The Black Angels (because of this video) and holy crap have I been missing out. The surfy, droning, fuzzy vibes are everything. Thanks PG for doing killer rig rundowns.
What he says about a Big Muff really working with a Rickie, I found that out for myself when I went shopping for my own Rickie 330, to really give it the beans I plugged it into a Boss Katana 100 and was surprised how well it worked with distortion, since they aren't well known for that. But when I dialed in Fuzz, it was as if angels suddenly looked down on me. So after I got home, I went and searched up Fuzz tones on my Line 6 floor pod and there it was again, that tone. But when I bought a Big Muff, I hit paydirt (pun intended) what a glorious sound.
so strange, I listended to the black angels a day or so before I saw this on premierguitar.com, hadnt listened to them in years, whats that, a premonition?
I remember listening alot to Passover and Directions to see a ghost, those two albums are something else. After those I kinda lost interest. Nice to see this bands rundown. You've done The Dandys and now The Angels, time to do Brian Jonestown Massacre!
We often turn the mics to face away from the normal position where a player may sing into during a show so it doesn't interfere with the shot or cross either the host or the player's face. Or maybe it's just for a all-night sing-a-long?!
Ha! Yes I was just yanking your chain - sorry it's so hard to do irony in print. What I should have said is: I discovered these Rig Rundowns about a year ago and have been absolutely loving every one of them. Thanks so much for going to the effort of making them - they're absolute goldmines of information and are a fantastic way of cutting through manufacturers' rhetoric and getting right to the truth as seen by our heroes. You're awesome!
He needs one of those switcher boards.. so he's not breaking his pedals all the time by stomping so hard. As a concerned parent - i feel he should invest in one ASAP
Rickenbaker must be using their standard neck for L.H. guitars which explains having marker dots on both sides of the neck and the headstock logo upside down. Also, it takes 18 months to get a lefty. ;-\
I think a HoofReaper would do a better job for fuzz. You get the muff, the tonebender (which can get thinner and bitier) plus the octavia style octave circuit to add. You need at least 2 very different fuzzes to really cover the ground these guys do.
Great video, but he makes a mistake between vibrato and tremolo. He compares the Fender Twin's vibrato (which is actually a tremolo, despite the label on the amp) with a Maggie, which is an actual vibrato. No wonder the sounds are vastly different, they are simply not the same effects at all.
Didnt Baldwin buy them around '64-'65-ish and then Fred bought it back later then resold it again to Fender? Some Japanese company also owned them for a while? I admit Im no Gretsch-expert, I do like the look of them guitars tho :)
@@bluegreenface1193you’re right about Baldwin. Then the Gretsch family bought it back after Baldwin went bust around 1980. After about a decade of no Gretsches being built, in the 90s, the Gretsch family started having them built in Japan. It was hard for them to scale on their own, though. In 2002, they partnered either Fender. Fender oversees production (in the same Japanese factories, and now in other offshore facilities as well as their own custom shop), and also handles marketing and distribution. But the Gretsch family still owns the company and sets the creative direction. Since the Fender partnership, the models have become more historically accurate, as well as introducing some models with modern amenities that are more road friendly (Center block, string through Bigsby, locking tuners, etc).

I'm listening! Send the NKT Sun Face for repair any time, sorry for the trouble!!!!!
WOW... thats service.
Analog Mike is the best!
hey Mike! Just seeing this. Unfortunately the pedal was lost/misplaced on that tour, so I found another NKT 275 on Reverb.com and bought it.

Complete Sentences Holy crap! I got to see them back in 2011 but I wish I saw them when they were with Roky...
Your so lucky that would have been killer. Please tell me you framed the poster ?
Excellent story!

As a lefty, it's always a treat to see such rad guitars!
I've been obsessed with the Black Angels and Christian's tone for so long now, finally all the deep secrets are revealed.
“They usually come with two springs but this one’s got three!” = These go up to eleven!
I’m kind of surprised I’ve never even heard of these dudes before so I’ll definitely have to check their stuff out. Especially since Jake seems like the nicest, sweetest guy on the planet.
This is like the greatest education that exists on what different fuzz sound like.
Been a big fan of these guys since Passover was released, cant believe it's been 14 years. Great tones, great vibes, good times, and many musically-connected memories!
We need a King Gizzard rig rundown!
My favorite rundown thus far. I love how into it these guys are. Great seeing them run-through every pedal!
Ive somehow just discovered The Black Angels (because of this video) and holy crap have I been missing out. The surfy, droning, fuzzy vibes are everything. Thanks PG for doing killer rig rundowns.
DO KING GIZZARD
3rd Spring!!!............definite Spinal Tap moment! great rig rundown!

Love The Black Angels, was waiting for this one!
so strange, I listended to the black angels a day or so before I saw this on premierguitar.com, hadnt listened to them in years, whats that, a premonition?
This is my new favorite Rig Rundown over J and Nels! So much awesome so much fuzz!
These guys seem like the nicest dudes. Great band too.
One of the best RR's I've ever seen. Why I ignored this band so, search me.'
I really appreciate this as a lefty who loves Beatles guitars
Wow, he really is a Beatles fanatic, even his strap is the same as Lennon's!
Super super cool!!!!!! Love these guys!! I like when the actual guitar player does the show instead of the tech.
This is sick! My dad’s band used to record songs with them!
I totally missed this one and just found it!!!! thank you :) these guys are so nice, The Black Angels are amazing, love their gear, those fuzzes wow!!
You can till Chris is trying so hard to keep his cool 😎 love these rig rundowns
Do The Brian Jonestown Massacre next !
Lets see if Anton can make it thru a 10 min interview without walking off
Love the lefty love! Thanks for this episode PG.
I remember listening alot to Passover and Directions to see a ghost, those two albums are something else. After those I kinda lost interest. Nice to see this bands rundown.
You've done The Dandys and now The Angels, time to do Brian Jonestown Massacre!
Kyle, if you see this: I have your black Fender CS '67 tele that was at AVG :)
Let's hear about the Mellotron and other keyboards!!!!!!!
Many of the artists featured in this series have their microphones facing towards the audience. You've got to admire the balls of that.
We often turn the mics to face away from the normal position where a player may sing into during a show so it doesn't interfere with the shot or cross either the host or the player's face. Or maybe it's just for a all-night sing-a-long?!

Thanks for watching! Everyone that tunes in makes this gig possible!!
Also, that's the best sound from a tube screamer I've heard... wowzers
He needs one of those switcher boards.. so he's not breaking his pedals all the time by stomping so hard. As a concerned parent - i feel he should invest in one ASAP
These guys hate fuzzes and pentatonic scales
Lorenzo Cafferata yeah definitely they should use more of them
l THlNK ALL THElR FvZZES S0vND THE SAME.
I wish they would use some delay/echo, even just a little
aden connell and just a hint of reverb
Love the black Angels! He reminds me of a real life shaggy
Guys after my own obsessive heart.... Damn, so many cool pedals on those boards
Very nice tones and riffs; thanks guys, much appreciated :D
I love this band and their sound!
Love this
Thanks for this.
True Detective yeah!
I don't know who this guy is...but he is a serious authority in fuzz.
Awesome questions that really get to some insight that sometimes is lost on laymen.
Rickenbaker must be using their standard neck for L.H. guitars which explains having marker dots on both sides of the neck and the headstock logo upside down. Also, it takes 18 months to get a lefty. ;-\
Lefty life. Pay lot. Get a hodge podge unit.
Kinda lazy kinda cool
Awesome rig rundown episode just by the way
Very Cool ,Jake !! J.Driver
Holy shit that Bumble Buzz is filthy!
love those guitar straps!
2 lefties in 1 band. Unprecedented lol
bak 138 - There are also two left-handed guitarists in the Australian rock band MihedUpEverything! Watch their videos on RUclips!🤗
Well...fauk yes!!!! Minds blown, thanks alot! Love!!! These guys.
amazing to see a thundertomate!!!
It's like Kurt Cobain and Joaquin Phoenix somehow had a son together.
GREAT, GREAT, BAND !
Such a shame Kyle got almost no air time, his bass is such a key component to Black Angels’ sound.
I want a righty version of that Rickenbacker and the Gretsch, also considering I'm a massive Beatles fan as well
YES!!! , Waited so long for this
Super cool rigs rundowns ;-).
I'm missing 1 board though, on which I think I see a H&K Rotosphere. Possibly for the keys?
Anybody?
Wait a Gretsch Country Gentleman has the f-holes painted on?!?
Yup, they always came that way.
Great surf/psyche tones!
PG-what kinda fuzz do you guys use
Black Angels-yes
I saw Charlie Sexton at South Austin Guitars years ago. Actually, I saw his haystack of hair first.
What pedal makes that train sound? It sounds great! :P
To boil it down to a handful of pedals, I’d go:
Cloven Hoof, Tubescreamer, Vox Wah, Flint, El Capistan (or Echoplex & RE-20)
I think a HoofReaper would do a better job for fuzz. You get the muff, the tonebender (which can get thinner and bitier) plus the octavia style octave circuit to add. You need at least 2 very different fuzzes to really cover the ground these guys do.
guy has good taste in guitars.
Great video, but he makes a mistake between vibrato and tremolo. He compares the Fender Twin's vibrato (which is actually a tremolo, despite the label on the amp) with a Maggie, which is an actual vibrato. No wonder the sounds are vastly different, they are simply not the same effects at all.
Wheres the drone machine?
THANK YOU.
I like the part where he bought a twin because he was always using it in a modeler. Same for me with an AC15.
now that's a good fuzz tone!
TRES Cool
I have a big muff and a double muff. I need about 8 more fuzz pedals and I'll be set
THANK YOU SO MUCH
Six fuzz pedals on one board! Don't think I've ever seen that before.
Ever seen Kevin Shields board?
Me 😁
Just like Jimi Hendrix, Dick Dale and maybe Paul McCartney, LEFTYS RULE!!! ;-]
Can ANYBODY tell me how the keyboard player gets his vocals to sound the way he does?
Just to clarify, Gretsch is not owned by Fender. Fred Gretsch owns the company and has a business partnership with FMIC.
Didnt Baldwin buy them around '64-'65-ish and then Fred bought it back later then resold it again to Fender? Some Japanese company also owned them for a while? I admit Im no Gretsch-expert, I do like the look of them guitars tho :)

Anyone know which Sunface bc108 he uses? The B or C model?
Now they need left handed pedals so you're not tripping over the guitar cable.
Sorry just found this band, but please please play New Orleans !
"yeah yeah they tend to be pretty plastic"
What's the name of the band he likes along with The Doors?
randomboobdrag Cream. Eric Clapton/Jack Bruce/Ginger Baker.
the Neo 13th Floor Elevators...sans Roky Erickson!!
“See-ox”, no “chocks” lol Cioks makes a power supply called the Ciokolate “chocolate”.
jack-in-austin , does he have a shop ?
anyone know what vocal peddle they use?
That’s a reissue Fender Twin Reverb, right?
Only RICKENs i like are the RICKENBACKER BASSES
otherwise give me back my SG
Oh nice!
I just have to stop the video and ask, did a train just go by??
This is my kind of pedal board, lots of delays and fuzzes.
That bass needs a neck adjustment! Look at those strings!
so its one guy with a twin and his pedals, then another guy that wanted to up the first guy by 3 twins and bison leather.
If tame impala still tours, do them
I want to be best friends with Christian.
Do amen dunes please!!!!!!
He used play a black telecaster .
Take a shot every time someone says Fuzz
Every time Jake says "ya know".
Oof. Watching him tread around that cable is hurting me. Get a longer one that's not coiled so you don't have it under foot all the time.
Anyone else here after playing the last of us part 2?
