Hey there, Steve here. Welcome to another episode of how to sound like our favorite Math Rock (and styles often associated with Math Rock) guitarists. For the episode, I tried to recreate three different guitar tones from three different Tiny Moving Parts records.
The tracks were (in order of appearance)
Always Focused - Pleasant Living
Caution - Swell
For The Sake Of Brevity - EP

your version of “caution” in my opinion sounds EXACTLY like in original song. what a great job, mate. so pleasant to listen.
I think you did a great job replicating Dylan’s tone. Man I love this band.
I love your profile pick, such a good album
omg killjoy from gami gang discord server
Yeah that’s great and all but can we talk about that sweater?!?! I need that in my life, where’d you get it?
Dammit the video is incredible but I gotta know about the sweater too
Reminds me of some of the sweaters from percival, but perhaps from another season. Could be thrifted vintage, who knows.
Such sweaters were worn in the USSR! (Hello everyone from Moscow - I'm with you!)
Haha! Unfortunately, I bought it from a vintage clothing shop about 10 years ago. It's some funky top from the 80s 😅
They have a similar one in green, cream and white right now at Zara
Nailed it man! The Caution transitions were seamless!
Hey man, I hope you're able to see this. I recorded with Greg Lindholm, the same producer that tracked "This Couch...", "Celebrate" and "Swell". I know exactly what Dylan used to record Celebrate, and likely the next few albums.
He used an ESP LTD les paul style guitar with an evertune bridge, with both pickups. He used a JCM800 Kemper patch and a Bogner Shiva, hardpanned left and right. This is straight from the mouth of the guy who recorded them. I hope you see this!
Are you sure that's what's heard on those albums? I've never seen Dylan on anything other than a Telecaster. I'm sure this was a studio guitar if what you're saying is true but I've never seen him with anything but a tele.
@@rabbitguy337 Well, as ridiculous as it sounds the producer literally told us "We recorded everything on this guitar and when we would stop to take photos Dylan would grab his telecaster". Obviously the telecaster is part of his image at this point haha
@@EagleRafter bruh
@@rabbitguy337 lol
you did such amazing work, all of us love dylan's tones! thanks for this guide
Holy cow, that last tone was SPOT ON!
You were super close. Maybe it's because it's done in a recording studio and the equipment was close to some of what he uses. I think you were close. Have to say, you chose my favorite songs too.
Cheers! I think I could've got closer if I tried a Fender style amplifier 👌
I just listened to this again and memories of seeing them live in slim's in San Francisco. Came rushing in.
Well done! Really enjoying these videos
caution was scarily close but always focused felt like it was missing some mids or something, still sounded amazing tho steve!
Always good man. Love tmp and you!
Dude. Spot on. Keep it up
Nice to see a the Equipboard site get a mention, it's a great site. There are some really helpful folks on the forum there too although it's gotten a bit quiet these days.
Great job man. Sounds almost the same like the processed studio versions. Caution couldve used a little raise on the mid lows. But you practically nailed thosw tones.
Cheers! Yeah, in hindsight I should've tried the Fender amp setting on my Strymon Iridum to see if that matched better 👌
Good job! Respect!
You were nearly spot on with all of them!
Great job mate
I adore this channel
caution was perfect. well done dude
I didn't even notice the switch in the last one!
Amazing!
Oh man "for the sake of brevity" is such a great song. Great song choice! You are really close with your tones. Probably as close as you can get with a different amp. I think I can hear the difficulty of getting the gain structure right: Sometimes I think he has more gain and then in the next second his guitar sound is kinda clean again. I think he usually has a tiny bit more gain, but his playing is so dynamic that he controls it with his fingers a bit more. (or its just a mixing thing or whatever).
Nailed the Caution tone dude
you're the man!
this is great
These tones sound great Steve! extra points for that sweater
Can I please have some context about the sweater? 🙈
@@rohanjangam511 haha it's just a cool sweater!
@@mattbucknerguitar that it is!! And I want one too!! Thought Dylan had it in some video haha
It's so impressive seeing people know their way around tone so well. I'm so bad at dialing in a guitar tone I like :((
The morning glory + revv sounded really really good. Pretty clever
Sounded a tad too much but not bad at all! Thanks
for the sake of brevity was literally spot on
Cheers!
@@LetsTalkAboutMathRock Much love, Steve! I credit you just as much as Dylan Mattheisen for being the reason I got into midwest emo/math rock and bought a telecaster. I've played guitar for about 16 years and my skills felt like they plateaued very early. When I got into this guitar style, it re-sparked that love for guitar I had when I first started playing. Just wanted to say thanks for making this content and being an influence to something that makes me happy; playing my fucking guitar!
It’s also crazy to me that he doesn’t use a compressor. He was telling me when I was at the one concert in Philly
Please do more on more bands
Nice video. Did the towel help with the Dylan Mattheisen tone?
could you do a video on the band clever girl? the somg elm is one of my all time faves for math rock
Lovely video, Steve!
Had a question - how different do you think the thinline is compared to a regular solid body tele with single coils?
They sound rather different. The widerange have a much higher output and warmer tone. Originally I made a segment about getting similar tone on other guitars but couldn't get close. So yeah, thinlines definitely have their own sound imo 👍
@@LetsTalkAboutMathRock gotcha. That's amazing! Glad you could get your hands on one. Thanks for replying :)
Please do a Cover of for The Sake of brevity! :)
Lol 😂 your too humble u nailed it dude
great video nice sweater xD
Cheers! 😅
I got a question, can you do something about how to sound like the Japanese band the cabs? That'd be really interesting to find out.
Still gotta do How to Sound like Tim Henson :)
single coils, 4th position, axe fx ii preset, maybe a bit of chorus depending on the song lmaoo
no
He’s a great player but IMO he’s a little flashy... speed isn’t everything
@@nehemiahzo_ Not only is a great player, he's also a very creative composer/writer as well as a skilled producer.
Yepp, he's bascially the whole package.
it sounds so super close and good. maybe just a touch more gain in the first one?
What’s the song playing in the background starting around 5:25
Hi steve, I have zoom multistomp pedal 50g and ms-70cdr could I try and emulate those midwest emo tones like dylan mattheisen to Tim Kinsella?
Ductape Tone 👀
Can you still make the stutter effect with a boss DD3T??
Honestly i prefer the slighty warmer tone you had for always focused
Steve whats a good/cheaper substitute for the morning glory?
check out the NUX morning star 👍
4:27 i think i prefer your tone, but still not sure how this louder mid-low end would translate if there was vocals over
Hey Steve, do you think it's possible Fenders Mustang GTX modeling amp could get close to the Fender Super?
likely! you can get close, just keep in mind that the modeling might not be quite as good as the warmer tube sound, keep that in mind with ur eq
I'd say so. I know it has a supersonic model on there. There are many differences to keep in mind though, however it should sound somewhat like it 👍
8:23 Is that the Korg Squirtle clip on tuner I see? Good fucking taste if so.
What app is he using ?
Please do chords that sound good with distortion 2 please
Sure! I'll put it on my list 👍
Completely unrelated but in your opinion are dan electros good for math rock?? I just want something a bit different than a tele.
I'm a bit late but Sleepy Dog uses/used to use a Danelectro for some of his older stuff. Go for it.
I want to sound like Leon Choi from Leon Choi which is me a nobody
How to sound like Dylan Matheisen: #e
Oh hey dude
@@FabulousKilljoy you stalking me around the internet smh
Thanks for the tabs btw owo
Almost bought a cheap copy of this, went with the traditional one instead.
Is Dylan using standard tuning?
In the interview he mentioned, Dylan said he tunes his guitar to DAEAC#e
then capo 4^
for some songs, i believe he uses Drop D as well
@@JohnDoe-hi2fe That is correct. I know Vacation Bible School is in Drop D, as well as a lot of songs from their album Breathe.
As a general rule of thumb, if it's not in daeac#e then it's in drop d
@@rentedshortbus can't forget good ol FACGCe and Drop C#
I took my best stab at both Caution and Always Focused on my own channel. Got pretty close with my Iridium on Round Amp, Cab A. Steve is better because he's Steve and way more talented than me. Anyway, here's Always Focused as an example: ruclips.net/video/8QDlEsWkjXs/видео.html
Nice! I was thinking I should've tried that too just escaped my mind when thinking of things to try 😅 after listening to your cover, it definitely has that more scooped mids tone to it 👌
REVV Rules
Well really for the sake of whatever is the oldest song .
I like what you do Steve but PSA for the youngins: I worked for Sam ash selling guitars for two years, and have been playing for 17 years and I learned: Who. Cares. What. Gear. Other. Artists. Use. Dylan uses the most simple setup ever. That’s literally the words that came out of his mouth when I met him. I asked if he used any compression techniques and he looked at me like he had no idea what I was talking about! The dudes got a straight up pop punk sound with some American football twinkles here and there and fast tapping. Well ol steve here spent 100x more money and time to sound like a pop punk artist who’s sound i replicated in ten minutes with a mexi tele with hums, a used twin, a used basic volume pedal, a used basic delay that stutters, and a pedal with the same contemporary gain you get from the SS sound. Used all this costs about $1k. His setup he suggested was easily triple that. But I’m pissed you didn’t even use anything from celebrate cause you know that’s the hardest album to replicate given how gain heavy it is. Show us a song or two off celebrate please. I can play a third of the album, it’s the sustaining gain that muddles shit up. That’s not because you need a $200 overpriced (but good) JHS pedal. Dylan doesn’t have a unique guitar tone he has unique fingers.- I have a nice compressor that you can’t even tell is on but it helps with the tapping too. Don’t get it in your head you need some ones same setup. You’ll prolly hate it. Btw jazzmasters blow teles outta the water 😝
first off, i love your videos, steve. they have taught me so much about this wonderful genre and i couldn't have asked for a better teacher. but please do not make videos like this that practically worships someone who has committed sexual assault, admitted to it, and then said he was all better now just because he went to therapy. therapy doesn't fix what he did in the past, the victim is still irreparably damaged by his actions. this isn't just some small mistake he made, it will leave a permanent impact on the victim's life. as someone who is a victim of sexual assault myself, it disgusts me that he can just get away with this. please don't contribute to him being able to bury the past and continue getting away with a heinous crime. i know you mean well with these videos, but please do better.
can i still play tmp if im not a sex pest or is that a mandatory requirement
Wonder how his assault victims feel? This guy is a legitimate airhead who didn’t see any problem with victimizing people. Worship someone else
