    I hope Mike becomes a semi-regular, he's just phenomenal, such a unique approach to his instrument.

      Mike, I only don’t get one thing: with your guitar you have more than one piezos/mic so you use Bose mixer to separate all channels and use different Eq. But with a one piezo-guitar, what’s the use of the Bose mixer? 500 dollars for just an Eq?

      Thank you, you're one of my favorite guitar players and I love your live sound. What I don't get though is the output from the mixer goes into the reverb... You can do that? And then the output from reverb goes into speakers or amp?

      @@dariofirpo9706he seperates each pedal individually through the ins and outs of the digital mixer, that may have a fair few extra benefits 😊

    Really enjoyed this one and it’s hard not to forget towards the end that this was a 150$ guitar. Mike did an incredible job with this presentation, he was very clear and explained things in a sense where a beginner could understand and shared settings which I liked. Thanks lee and mike for this as I had no clue the importance of that Bose unit in an acoustic show. Was very interesting.

    Mike is super humble for a guy with the talent of the best guitarists out there. Every interview I see with him is great. He's the kind of player that makes me wish I paid more attention to my guitar lessons when I was a teenager.

  • @NoMeWithoutYou1
    @NoMeWithoutYou1 11 месяцев назад +2

    This session shows me why I respect Mike Dawes so much. He's genuinely humble even after becoming famous and is willing to come in and do a video for Andertons just for fun. The man is immensely good at what he does and his personality makes it that much better.

    I saw him at a small club last year, and he did the Lost guitar pick shtick, which indeed had all the guitar players in the audience searching their pockets trying to be the one to loan him a guitar pick. It was funny; but it never occurred to me that he had that whole thing planned as part of his show, which is pretty hilarious now that I think about it. His guitar playing is out of this world, phenomenal Talent. But not only that, his music is good music; you can't say that about all talented technical guitarists. Plus he has a great sense of humor, and despite being nearly unique in the world, he seems like a pretty humble guy.

    It's great seeing you bringing affordable guitars and electronics to the schoolchildren , many of f whom come from working class families and now more single parent families but are so enthusiastic about playing music. I was lucky with singing in the church choir from 7 and learning NB actually how to read simple music but in the late 60s early 70s we had group lessons for violin, flute for example as one to one tuition was so expensive but classical lessons were a great grounding and we also hired our instruments from the school and in my case it was a violin as my family were poor but I felt so blessed to have had the chance. I bought an old violin secondhand for £90 and went to a kind violin luthier who sold me a bow and fitted a new bridge and strings for £90 in 2001 in NW Switzerland. Claude Lebed at La Chaux de Fonds . A great old school luthier who was brilliant, loved stringed instruments and was passionate like you and your father in greatly encouraging people of all ages and budgets and abilities to get into learning stringed instruments and drums. It's certain your father built your great shop with you based on great relationships with musicians giving them great service and value for money as many I've known were skint apart from their pride and joy they often saved up hard for doing a paper round or getting it on the never never. I will get a new guitar from the site R3 accoustics very soon after your excellent reviews. I can't afford a j15 Gibson and Sire guitars are great, really playable quality sounding guitars and for £299 amazing. The bass by Sire will be next.

    Good to see Mike back at Anderton's again. I really loved his run through of the Sire R7 and R3 guitars. I'll always regret not being able to get one. Mom passed and I'll never get one as they aren't readily available anymore. That Strymon pedal is REALLY DARN GOOD. If you love ambient guitar effects that is your pedal.

    My pedal board has created so many compliments on my tone and volume thanks to Mike Dawes... Acoustic players need to invest in his core pedals and mixer and don't forget his 4 signals coming from his guitars 4 pickups... gathering all these signals results in various gain stations and amazing head room!!!!! Mike is the best!!!! Thank you Andertons for all your content!!

    I'm playing with a FLAMMA reverb/ delay. Got three tipes of reverb ,( including shimmer) and three types of delay. Only cost me 80 pounds. Got a Larry Carlton acustic guitar with piezo and microphone, cost 420 pounds. Got the boss oc3, 100 pounds. A behringer mixing desk with 6 inputs eq and effects,100 pounds, and a behringer mpa 40 battery powered because I'm a busker 170 pounds. 950 pounds my entire rig including the guitar. And I'm very happy with it . Need nothing else. (Well I miss a magnetic pick up😅)

    Just goes to show that the instrument itself is less important than the other components. As long as it has a good setup and intonation. The Bose T4S is the equivalent of the others buying a much better amp like on earlier challenges The Immerse really does sound more natural to me. Hope he got it. The Strymon tho. Something he could really have fun with too. Did he get one of those too?
