Andy's Setup:
Amp: Fender Deluxe Reverb RI
Guitars: Redtail Custom T & 59 Goldtop
Pedals: EHX Oceans 11, Fromel Shape EQ, Fulltone OCD V2 (Ltd Edition Black), Keeley Aria
Interface: UA Apollo 8 QUAD, OX Amp Top Box
Mics: Royer R-121
Strings: Ernie Ball Cobalt
That Fromel EQ pedal is a work of art.
That sound for Back in Black was EPIC! So tight and just plain mean, and you can even hear the strings jangle.I could watch a band all night, the louder the better, if the rhythm guitarist had a sound like that. Thanks Andy, you are the best!
What a great and thoughtful video! It’s always nice to see the scales tipped away from shredding lead playing to something a bit more....realistic.
Great to have rhythm for a change. At least half of the guitarists are rhythm players :) thanks !
Great video!! I built a career around being a rhythm player and I was feeling my way around in the dark to find the right tone for years. I hope videos like this help more budding rhythm players out and maybe save them some time and money. I'm still not done learning, and got a lot from this. Thank you!
Andy is one of the best demo players I've seen on RUclips by far. Awesome sounds and he's definitely not a one trick pony.
One trick pony
Lol
Great video, finally some advice specifically for rythm guitars !
How about an episode on dual guitar combination and sounds, to illustrate what you say ? How to achieve good tonal separation between two guitars and a bass for instance !
This is a mint idea for vid - having a good board to jam with other people/instruments rather than just the bedroom stuff
The OCD just Kills Me - every time I hear it. I am so glad I got one ( 1.7 version ) . Just a Special Pedal. Fulltone hit-it-out-of-the-park with The OCD. Andy that Tone into the Fromel EQ was Killer. Phenomenal Rhythm Tone.
Try One Out ( if you can ). I Love it for Both = lead & rhythm. The Range on this pedal is incredible. It can go from a Clean Boost to AC/DC = Hells Bells ( honestly ). Just a Great Sounding Overdrive / Distortion Pedal.
Its No Bother. We are all here to Learn & Help each other. ( for me ) I run Vintage Strat.Guitar, Fulltone Wah, Drybell Vibe, OCD, ( into ) Thorpy Muff, Free the Tone Tri Chorus, Mooer Flanger, Boss DD-500, Strymon Big Sky, Diamond Tremolo, Fender Princeton Reverb 65 Blackface Reissue Amp. Try the Analogman Bad Bob if you want to Boost in front of OCD or a Tube Screamer Mini ???
Thanks for this excellent video! You give a lot of good suggestions and help to really get in the right mindset for being a good rhythm player. And being a good rhythm player is everything.
Would love to see an essential bass pedal board one day!
It features a tuner and... that's it actually.
I probably use more pedals than I can reasonably need for a traditional bass role, but what I do use regularly is a distorsion or fuzz, a chorus pedal (they go together awesomely and it makes up my regular distorted tone) an EQ pedal, and tuner. Now what I need is a compressor, and I will most likely change my EQ pedal for a DI with preamp, like the Darkglass Alpha Omega Ultra, which would also replace my OD pedal. That's what I would consider necessary for my personal needs, but I also like to fuck around and use a delay and also a filter, namely the EHX Blurst. Am also thinking of getting an Octave pedal.
Tuner, compressor, eq, some type of gain pedal, and maybe an octave. Oh and a di, but does that count as a pedal?
I just carry mine around and end up using only the compressor. But it looks cool.
Compressor , parametric eq , overdrive with blend knob , modulation , reverb octave , delay
Nice to see a rhythm guitar pedal demo. All these demos are all about blues licks and boosting solos but the truth is that when it comes to performing, most guitarists will mostly just be strumming chords. I'd like to see that pedal show do a rhythm guitar episode too.
Thats a very good point at the end. You really don't need as much gain as you might think you need in a lot of circumstances.
Great demo, Andy. You always deliver. That pedal combo rocked.
@5:10 that tone, I've been looking for her, and Andy found her.
That was a great help for rhythm guitarists like me. Thanks!
Hi, Andy and Reverb. Cool video. I would like to see some videos about stacking like pedals, for instance stacking delays, stacking overdrives, stacking fuzzes, etc. I have seen some videos like this, but your take on it would be awesome. Thanks, CN
Great suggestion, thanks Chris!
Love everything you do man! Excellent demo.
I think personally the perfect board is a ProCo Rat - It has a wide spectrum of gain (country-metal) and the tone knob is magic, overall a great flavor for the basis of your tone, next a great versatile fuzz - For me it is the op amp big Muff because it covers a variety of tones (from 60s psych to doom and shoegaze), next a great rich delay my take is any tape emulation, i love space echo simulators. You’re all set for everything with those three pedals but if you want a good price switch knife pedals i like the zoom MS-70CDR, it’s honestly a shoegazer’s wet dream.
As far as what I would like to see next? IDK if you did a few more or not, but for awhile there you were doing episodes on vintage gear/pedals. I wouldn't mind a few of those sprinkled in from time to time .My vote goes to an Ampeg Scrambler if you ever go that route again.
Nate Mendsen agree the vintage gear demos are cool and we need some more .maybe a CE -1 and a hammond leslie just because.
Again a fantastic demo !!!!!!!!
Mike Adriano back at it! 😎
Andy! Your Guitar 🎸❤️❤️❤️ is a Beauty!
I’d like to know how to play rhythm guitar like the Trevor Rabin/Trevor Horn years of Yes. How to write for multiple rhythm guitars, each with their own tone/fx and how to play dynamically between parts to create ups and downs throughout a song
Well it would be great to have a this. Maybe a tad broader «how to make two guitars sit well together in a live situation» (two rhythm or rhythm/lead)
Awesome Andy thanks.
I'm waiting for mini pedalboard for lead guitarists! :D
Pls do tutorial on how to reach pop funk guitar sound, like some cheesy riffs in Modjo songs. Really like this series
Interesting series keep them coming
I would LOVE a basic home recording/audio interface/micing your amp video! Maybe one that focuses on the idea of recording for song writing purposes rather than recording a “finished” product. Would be great for folks wanting to do diy pedal/gear reviews. Maybe even on something basic like GarageBand
Definately another one like this
Brilliant. Thanks
Andy: excellent, thank you. That was great.
that Redtail Custom guitar looks bad-ass with tick top and binding
yeah it does that's some wide binding looks like that rubber seal you see on some of those eastwood rigs ?? I think
Ya got to remember guys this was the second 2nd lp I ever made , now almost 22 years ago. no one ever told me or showed me anything different. Learn by trying. Sounds like rock n roll to me.😎
Dayum that 12 string Reverend tho 🔥
Great video ideas!!!
When sound like my bloody valentine with pedals coming out
The subtitles on this are pretty funny.
[music] [applause]
Hard rock tones! Thanks andy
I love it! Is it possible to show us the amp settings as well?
Andy, great video! What did you use to get the jangly tones at the very end. Thanks
Has that Audrey image gone public domain? Freakin' classy.
Your hair is looking glorious as ever.
Got Bob Weir? Jerry did!
Ocd-ge next.
It would be crazy. But I would love to see you do EDM with pedals and guitar. Lush synth pads and all of that. Maybe even some warbly dubstep type sounds. I'm curious if it's possible!
Check out The Pedal Zone channel for synth pads. Stefan does lots of ambient stuff and loves to create synth pad sounds with fuzz and delay or reverb.
ruclips.net/video/0W1GtCbRvIk/видео.html
Not sure how close this is to what you’re looking for, but he gets some real good synth sounds from a guitar on this.
@@christofyre Love stefan! Great channel
The binding is so fat on your guitar's body. Reminds me of some classic sneakers.
andy, is that a tng data figure in the background?
So I have about $500 USD to spend on a from scratch pedal board and I just wanted some help on where to start looking as far as the basics and the 'must haves'. I currently play through a Fender Hotrod deluxe if that helps any decisions. Also play mostly alternative music. I've never built a board before and anything helps!
I'd highly recommend trying out the Zoom Multistomp series, particularly the MS-70CDR (stereo ins and outs, more reverbs, etc but no drives or amp models) or the MS-50G (mono in, stereo out with drives and amp models). They both have some excellent reverbs and delays that match pretty much anything out there, plus a million other effects, and they're each under $100 used.
That's my pretty catch-all recommendation (I actually have several CDR's on my board, each filling different functions). But what effects are you hoping to have on your board? How big of a board do you want?
@@Merlincat007 so far I've been looking at an MXR carbon copy delay, Volume pedal, MXR analog chorus, Keeley compressor plus, Tuner pedal, Soul food, and Caline Overdrive. Basically looking for 2 dirt pedals, some reverb and delay, and good compression
If you're looking to keep size down, I'd highly recommend the mooer Yellow Comp compressor (diamond compressor clone), and I believe Mosky has several clones that are the same as Caline dirt pedals only in the mini form-factor.
OCD’s rock. Might want a wah too
GameMasterIzzio I just played a 80's party( we also play a lot of 90's Alt and classic rock) and used a mini vodoolab dingbat with a Fulltone OCD-Fulltone Octafuzz- MXR Dyna Comp- Boss Ce-5 Chorus And MXR Carbon Copy. If needed put Fulltone Wah at beginning of chain but didn't need for this gig! Simple and covers everything imho! Cheers!
Hey Andy,
I know it’s a little off topic but can you speak to your picking style? More specifically where/how your finger(s) make contact with the strings?
How do you make it sound so clean without a pick
Long nails
Suyash J long and hard.
Very short nails. Check out : andydemos . He explains his techniques.
Maybe you get a blister on your little finger. Maybe you get a blister on your thumb.
I never use a pick , neither did the jazz players of old 🤷♂️
opinions on the boss rt 20 i really wanna get one but i have a feeling it could be a bit shit
i want your shirt too Andy
what song is that at 5:08?
I would love to hear your feedback about amps that take pedals well
Jorge Gutierrez check out the Blackstar artist 30/15
Lewis, thank you. I totally forgot about Blackstars and tbh I really appreciate you giving me that suggestion. I'm falling in love with the idea of the Artist 30 with 2x12 celestion speakers... That can probably cover my Bit commander and Pog with any other delay/reverbed swells I like to play with. Thank you!
Hey Andy! Wonder what bridge you have on that T style guitar. Great tone and lessons as always
Mark Ochoa it seems the quarter pound set from seymour duncan
Neck and bridge pickups in the Redtail T are early Bill Lawerence .the neck is a strat neck black label S1 like the ones he made for SRV in the early days. We dont remember the exact bridge model though.
The bridge itself? Its an American Fender,but with saddles , modified from an elite possibly,dont remember exactly sorry. I should have taken better notes along the way .
Edad Martin no problem at all! I love when people mix and match parts to their liking. That’s what makes your guitar, YOUR guitar. Always loved that T guitar.
Honestly guys I just want a pedal board built around boosting the muff muff combos like muff rat or muff swollen pickle or just anything to make that nasty thicc honey sing!
That Redtail Goldtop is SO SEXY.
That pedal on the right looks familiar, but i can’t put my finger on it
What brand Tele style guitar are you playing?
midwestfisherman Redtail
Damn it, I can't afford any pedals right now, but I NEED that reverb and it keeps popping up , and now with Andy.smh......The guitar is badass too, but that is way out of the price range thankfully . Nice video idea btw.
Nate Mendsen you can easily find an affordable alternative for those pedals, check out boss or ehx pedals as example, for under 200$ you can make a solid pedalboard
The thing with this reverb is the bunch of different an weird choices you have.. I also build effects and could toss a reverb together fairly cheap, but I couldn't do this.Putting together a decent digital plate seems hard enough, let alone the rest..Thanks though.
First you need a Eq pedal. Any who really take it seriously have one. And it s a cheap option
lol I didn't realize my comment wold give off such a vibe .I'll have you know that I have , two, eq pedals because I am twice as serious as the other guy.lol. I also have a compressor and know how to use it.......I don't have a tuner though, I have perfect pitch...........Alright that one is a lie.
Seriously though, a lot of new (and old) players never get how useful and fun eqs are.
interesting, great sounds, but why always the bar rock bro playing?
Malcolm used no effects.
Way to muffled
