    One important thing to point out with the DS2 - WH10 boost is the order of the pedals. If you have the volume boost problem, make sure that you have your pedals in the following order: guitar > DS2 > WH10 > OD pedal > amp. You can put whatever else you want into that chain, but it is crucial that the overdrive is the last pedal before the amp. That way, you can pretty much control the overall volume with the volume knob of the overdrive pedal. Which essentially flattens the boost of the DS2 and WH10. As Dave says, the overdrive pedal compresses the volume of everything that happened before it down to a pleasant level and fixes all your problems.
    Edit: Just realized that you do mention that later on in the video. Nevermind.

    I can't thank you enough! I'm a beginner on this whole guitar world, and you've just given me both a learning target and resolved a question I had, cause I had no idea of how the hell are you supposed to use the neck of the guitar to solo. You're such a nice lad, I enjoy all of your videos. Cheers from Colombia, Dave!

    I love these series, thank you very much Dave for doing this! I have a question - how do you set your delay in Don't forget me?

    • @thedavesimpson
      @thedavesimpson  8 лет назад

      Thank you very much indeed. I'm not 100% on the time of the delay. I just mess with it till it sounds right. Usually tap tempo it in like John would. :) John had his set for only one repeat though. I prefer more. :)

    • @JackSmith-cl9eo
      @JackSmith-cl9eo 8 лет назад +1

      Which delay do you use for it Dave? Is it the Line 6? Is there any chance in the future you could do a video on that pedal for sounding like John because it has like a million different options, don't know where to start

    @AName-mg2bd 8 лет назад

    Dave - you're on it as always. The DS2 and WH10 combo HAS to have an amp on close to break-up. Common sense, but many forget this! However, did you know John used a DOD FX65 on BSSM (not a CE-1)? You should check them out - they are dirt cheap and sound super good. By the way, SPOT ON about the DS2 sounding fuzzy. So many people overlook this. You are truly getting the proper truth out there.

    • @thedavesimpson
      @thedavesimpson  8 лет назад

      Thank you very much indeed and i did indoodles know about the DOD. If i could afford one I'd get one. I don't really have any money to spend on gear sadly. :( Thank you so very much again. :)

    Amazing video and love your channel mate! Very helpful to learn about this guitar legend.
    One constructive commentary: Shouldn't be from input to output when you explain the pedals order (guitar- pedals-amp)? I think you did it the other way round. Thanks

    • @thedavesimpson
      @thedavesimpson  8 лет назад +2

    hey dave, i appreciate your output and your style a lot! greetings from germany! one little thing: if you shoot videos like this with 45mins length, you should put like: for intermediates, start watching at 22:00 when the explanation of the pentatonics is over. absolutely no criticism, just an idea, because I know it's good to go through stuff slowly, but not everyone needs this detail ;) cheers, mate

    @Rouss334 8 лет назад

    Hi Dave, love what you do. You give so much back to us, it's a bless really! Just a question to make sure I understood you right about the pedal order. The guitar goes in the chorus, then into delay, then into ds2, then fuzz, then wah and into guitar amp? Or have I got it the wrong way around? I kinda always thought the delay and chorus had to just before the amp.. Can you clear that out for me please? I'm a big fan! Talk later

    • @thedavesimpson
      @thedavesimpson  8 лет назад +1

      Thank you so very very much indeed.
      Pedal order should be
      Amp - Chorus - Delay - Overdrive - Wah - DS2 - Fuzz - Guitar. :)
      Thank you very much again and i hope this clears it up. :)

    • @thedavesimpson
      @thedavesimpson  7 лет назад +1

      Try boosting the gain a little more till it goes away. If its to distorted then you will have to use an overdrive pedal to get the John tone. :)

      @AName-mg2bd 7 лет назад

      No, not much difference really - but there is a youtube vid that compares them directly. The MIJ sounds a touch more fuzzy and warmer - but the difference is tiny. Something to do with germanium diodes...

    @niandralades3666 8 лет назад

    Nice Video :) It would be nice to hear your thoughts on the speaker selection. I've seen you got the JCM900 Cabinet like John and if his are stock, wich is not very well documented I guess, there should be G12T-75 speakers in there. Wich Cabinet are you using and how does it compare to your others ones ? Is it another must have like the DS2 or is it totally irrelevant ?

    • @thedavesimpson
      @thedavesimpson  8 лет назад

      Thank you for watching. :)
      John's cabs were just stock 75s and they are my favourite speaker. I don't get on well with 25 watt greenbacks or vintage 30s. I find them to bright and have a harshness i don't like. The 75s just seem to be smoother and give me the sound i want. :) I am using a JCM 900 b cab. My favourite cab. Its darker and warmer sounding to any other cab i have. :) For John's tone i would say its kind of important to have 75's but its not a absolute need like the DS2 or WH10. :)

  • @masterprocrastinator007
    @masterprocrastinator007 7 лет назад

    Hey guys, I'm re-learning to play guitar. Got some questions, hope you can help me: 1) I do know that every position in a scale is named after root note but how am I supposed to know if progression is minor or major? 2) do you know any sources where I can find which chord/scale is relative to others? 3)I remember that I was learning different pentatonic scales than this one... First position was like 030302020303...what's the difference? Thanks in advance :)

    These Frusciante episodes are awesome! I have a question, Dave - What do you think about the Dunlop Crybaby wah? Can it be an alternative to the Ibanez/Vox wah?
    Thanks a lot for these lessons/tips about John's tone, I'm learning a lot about him! :)

    • @thedavesimpson
      @thedavesimpson  8 лет назад +1

      Thank you very much and i'm glad you like them. :) I personally don't like crybaby's at all. I hate the sweep and i just find them very un expressive. But saying that. Thats my preference. If you like the Cry Baby it can be used as an alternative as long as you do the overdrive thing i talk about in the video. :)

    Is that totally normal when your neck pickup slightly angles.

    If you could possibly like better explain what you mean by having pedals before and after each other that would be great! I was confused by what you meant by having the fuzz after the overdrive but that would be closest to your guitar. So if you could better explain that that would be awesome!

      Your signal chain should be
      Amp - Chorus - Delay - Overdive - Wah - DS2 - Fuzz pedal - Guitar
      :)

    Hi Dave,
    Love your channel, you are a very fine musician.
    I have been looking around for an Ibanez Wh10 without much luck.
    During my search I found a company in the US called Wilson Effects.
    They sell a product called "Ten Spot II Wah" which is meant to be an accurate clone of the Wh10 pedal.
    You should check them out and see what you think.
    Cheers

      Thats really cool. I shall take a look. Thank you for letting me know about it. :)

    Can you tell me the compression pedal you were talking about that you prefer? I couldn’t quite understand you in the vid. Thanks!!

    Brilliant! Thanks! Tell me, what is that bit you play from about 34:45 to 35:00? I recognise it but I can't remember the song. it is truly magical. Hope you're going to show it to us sometime.:)

      Thanks! I'm now going to have to listen to it. Have to admit, I haven't listened to BSSM as much as the later ones.

      It's pretty Parliament Funkadelic, is it not? Weren't they hooked up with Bootsy Collins at one point, or was it George Clinton?

    • @thedavesimpson

      Thank you very much and thank you very very much for you donation. That means a lot to me. I will get round to teaching it at somepoint. :)

    Hey Dave, great lesson! (as always) I have a question: i have a reverb pedal, when you recommend me to put it? before the chorus or after the ds-2?

    • @thedavesimpson
      @thedavesimpson  8 лет назад +1

      Thank you very much. I would put your reverb pedal just before your overdrive or wah if your not using an overdrive.
      Amp - Chorus - Reverb - Overdrive - Wah - DS2 - Guitar
      Or
      Amp - Chorus - Reverb - Wah - DS2 - Guitar
      I hope this helps. :)

    • @nico.bay__
      @nico.bay__ 8 лет назад

      Dave Simpson I forget to tell that i have a delay pedal too! Amp - Chorus - Delay - Reverb - Wh10 - Ds2 - Guitar? is that correct?

    • @thedavesimpson
      @thedavesimpson  8 лет назад +1

      Nicolas Bay thats the one. :)

    Hi Dave! Thanks for another video. Let me ask you, did u make any mods on your wh10?

    • @thedavesimpson
      @thedavesimpson  8 лет назад

      Thank you very much indeed and i haven't done anything to my WH10 no. Its totally stock. :)

    • @vitorgalveas
      @vitorgalveas 8 лет назад

      Its good to hear that! Many people have problems with the volume boost etc etc.. I play through a fender frontman 25r amp, and your tip to always play through the dirty channel really helped me!

    Hi, I have a question. After learning the shapes how exactly do i use them?

    • @thedavesimpson
      @thedavesimpson  6 лет назад +1

      Its all in practise and playing around with them. Its good to learn John's solos and see how he uses them then go from there. It takes time but its worth it : )

    Is it worth spending money on SSL1 pickups? Have a squeir strat that i love and it sounds amazing through my Marshall but the only problem is the output of the stock pickups are kinda dead, is it worth putting them in?

    • @thedavesimpson
      @thedavesimpson  8 лет назад

      If your happy with the sound you have i wouldn't say its worth it no. Stay with what you have if you like it and it works for you. If the output is a little low bring your pickup height up a little. :)

    do you use any compressors in these series?

    • @thedavesimpson
      @thedavesimpson  8 лет назад

      Haha. Thank you very much indeed. I am not using a compressor nope. :)

  • @alecpilarchik2338
    @alecpilarchik2338 8 лет назад

    Dave, how do you run the tone on the ds-2 on max without it getting super thin and trebley/bright sounding? Great video once again.

    • @thedavesimpson
      @thedavesimpson  8 лет назад

      No clue. :) It just seems to work with the amp been slightly broken up. Thank you very much for watching. :)

  • @bhavs26

    Dave please clear something up for me.
    In this video you teach the pentatonic scale in the key of Dm, but position 1 is in Fmaj (1st fret) and position 5 is Dm (10th fret).
    If the key is Dm, shouldn't position 1 be Dm?
    In the 3rd theory video you mentioned that if a song is in the key of Amaj, position 1 begins with A.
    Shouldn't the same apply for Dm?

    • @thedavesimpson
      @thedavesimpson  7 лет назад +1

      Position one is always major and position 5 is always minor. To me its silly and backwards but it is what it is i suppose. I always class the minor as position one and major as position 2. In all fairness. I'm not happy with teaching it the way i did and might do another video soon talking about this. Sorry. This isn't really an answer. :)

    Hey Dave, just want to ask can I use my Blackstar LT Dual pedal as subtitute for OD? And if so, where should I put it to get that JF tone? Here's my current rig set-up. Thanks! (amp>delay>chorus>phaser>wah>ds-2>LT Dual>compressor>guitar)

    • @thedavesimpson
      @thedavesimpson  7 лет назад

      I wouldn't recommend that pedal for JF tone but you can try it. It wants to be right after your amp. so amp then balckstar. :)

    • @kerrtible9628
      @kerrtible9628 7 лет назад

      Thank you so much Dave. How about the ibanez ts9dx as od? Will it do? Lastly can you give me an advice how should I arrange my pedals from amp to guitar? :)
