    The One and DONE! This pedal does absolutely everything. From Wong to Mayer to MUCH heavier. Love this thing and I love this company. It is run by some of the coolest people in the industry, and the make some of the best pedals on the market today in my opinion!

    If there's something that's absolutely genius about the modular design of the Jackson audio stuff is the fact that if something were to go wrong with the circuit, all you probably have to do is swap in a new module, and just like that she's ready to fire up again. Very useful for musicians who still like to use mostly analog gear live.

    Awesome playing in this one! Looks like this pedal does everything i would need it to do.. crazy. I was wondering about how the EQ could be brought in and out and you covered that beautifully in a playing scenario. Thanks for that. I'm after a clean boost that I can EQ if ever it feels too fat and this looks like it could do that.

    Jackson Audio has the feel of a big pedal company, but in truth they still belong here on SBT. Great demo as always.

    Jackson team sprinkled some sweetness and fatness into Optmist eq. Great demo Buddy! Your style is chunkier than Cory’s more spanky funkiness. All of Jackson offerings are stellar for guitarists of all styles

    Hey Buddy, great stuff as always. Have always enjoyed your videos - and your album on Spotify! I was wondering, could you or have you made a video about pedal order? I have a compressor and 3 overdrives, and I'm having trouble ordering them. Each combination offers different things that I like but it's been tough to check ALL of the boxes. Is there a formula to the ordering, especially with a lot of overdrives? Thanks!

    • @BuddyBlues
      @BuddyBlues  2 года назад +3

      Thank you! What I like which happens to be the """general rule""" is compressor first, then the highest gain-y pedal right after and then downwards in gain. Compressor always first the from high to low gain. That's what I like but screw the rules and mess around with it see what you like

    • @jayegler2653
      @jayegler2653 2 года назад

      @@BuddyBlues Thanks Buddy! If I could ask a follow-up, do you use the last overdrive in the chain as always-on, to avoid any type of volume jump or something? Thank you sir for fueling my GAS! haha

    • @BuddyBlues
      @BuddyBlues  2 года назад +1

      I dont, my sound 80% of a gig is usually clean. On one of my boards the only always on pedals are compressor and an EP boost that is second in the chain after compressor

      Thank you! What worked for me was listening to what other instruments were doing. For example getting inspired by a really good bass player. One can learn so much from a proper bass player. And to be honest with you sometimes I wish I was a bass player

    "Fairly new to all of this"- Well I'm not- I've been playing for over 30 years and I don't have even a fraction of the gear you have hanging up behind you. This RUclips shit is something else man- you guys typically have about 3-4 times as much gear as a professional musician. And I think there's a very basic reason for that- you make more money doing RUclips. What a weird world this has become. A world where you make more money to explain a thing than to actually do it.

    I bought a golden boy last year. Immediately returned it. Sounded like a toy sucked all natural warmth from tone. Digital overdrives suck. Keep those electrons in the line.

    • @martiboucat
      @martiboucat 8 месяцев назад

      Golden boy isn't a digital overdrive. You can control the switches and other functionalities digitally but the signal path is analog. It's bright, but that's the nature of the circuit.
