One day I'll tell my grandkids the story about how I lost all my money: "Well you know, there was this one thing called youtube, it was a platform where everybody could upload videos freely. And this guy called 'Danish Pete' ..."
You’re not losing your money! You’re investing in TONE! That you can pass onto your grandkids and have a collection of pedals that rivals Josh Scott from JHS!😁
Same here...
@@StringsOfCrossroads you're totally right
Catherine TeleCathster Faulkner can you put a down payment on your house with tone? :P
It's what's rotten in DK lol
I can't wait to buy this, plug it into my Roland Cube and be greatly dissapointed!
lol.
Run it in the fx loop 😉 it’s a preamp pedal.
Cubes are cool, though. Busking to monitors; enough noise to use but lift enough to carry easily.
@@johnhunt1805 Cubes are cool. It's just a case of horses for courses, depending on what you're trying to do.
That being said, it will surely sound glorious through a reissue Blues Cube.
I like how quickly Pete changes what he's playing to match what the pedal is doing to his tone.
Pete: "If your a working musician.."
2020 and beyond: *Nah mate*
I played 2 gigs this week...
@@NathanNagel oh well crisis averted then.
@@NathanNagel if they're paid gigs then good on you dude, my last gig was 14th March, fingers crossed all musos/performers/techs out there don't go a full year without a gig!
Aidan Underhill both paid. I hope that people can find things that they can do as well. Some of the places that are open and willing to have gigs the most are probably the places with the least amount of professional musicians.
I haven’t gigged since the onset of COVID. But...patios are hiring stand alone musicians. Dust off your piezo equipped acoustic guitars everyone!
It has gain - but not bargain... ;)
Don’t worry soon harley benton rebrand coming out
@@Mwhbmnabjms I will go for the real deal ;)
Oh you devil
My sentiment is the common statement Mick from That Pedal Show has - if this piece of gear inspires you to make new music, brings you joy for years, and you can afford it without sacrifice, it's a major bargain!
@@nilsx3020 I learned it many years ago: Buy nice, or buy twice :)
The perfect accompaniment to the man who can afford a PRS Wood Library!
It does sound amazing. Also, your video editor deserves a raise
Thing I've found with endlessly tweekable pedals, you find one or two settings you really like and just stick with those. I could definitely see this pedal being of great use in a studio, customize a couple of unique dirt tones and off you go, but it's way too expensive to gig with.
Exactly. Those kinds are always fun to demo but you are absolutely right, you find two sounds and never deviate.
Thats exactly what I do. I own a studio in LA and we have it on the desk and tweak endlessly. Its almost annoying because there are so many amazing tones but there is no way I would put this on my board. I picked up the CB Brothers to hopefully cover some of the sounds we find in this unit.
Oh, I don't know. I gig with a Les Paul Custom Shop, a Novo and a Carr Rambler. That's like 10.000 bucks right there. Adding another 1000 wouldn't make me any more or less of an idiot. There's still the issue of the sliders though, so I did buy the cover.
It was James Hydrik who claimed to be able to turn pages psychically but was just blowing on them.
My first impression of this pedal was: I bet I could accidentally drop a guitar pick and have it fall directly through one of those fader slots never to be seen again.
LMAO that sounds like something I would do!
This triggered my anxiety... Lol
It has a shield and a new flip clear dust cover
😆😂🤣😅I hear ya!
I just know I'm the only one who forgot all those tones were coming from a Tele.
Enjoyable, splendid, and ridiculously well done.
I could watch this entire thing again, or go practice. What to do, what to do.
Thanks a million, guys.
Rory, Pete, or whoever edits these you always do a class job 😂 keep it up
Played this at NAMM. one of the most incredible preamps and pedals ever made. You have to play it to believe it. Less expensive than I expected.
perfect example of what is possible no matter what, the hifi products comparison is on point for me. Supercool exquisit pedal...
I've said it before. I'll say it again. It has been an absolute pleasure watching the evolution of Captain Lee's guitar playing journey. Musical without being unnecessarily flashy. Just great tone and feel. Try inspiring.
I'll have what he's having...
That pedal is crazy. Definitely something I would play for hours on end.
That first jump really scared the crap out of me for some reason.
I have one, it can sound like a klon, a tube screamer, a fuzz face, a muff, a fuzz factory, a wah, and everything in between.
It's the complete opposite of a one trick pony.
The faders are the best user interface I've experienced so far, you'll get great sounds very quickly.
If you have 4 or 5 dirt boxes, chances are you already spent more money.
I see kids walking around with phones costing more, that will be obsolete in 2 years. 🤷♂️
Congrats man. Glad you’re enjoying it. (Though I’m surprised that you’ve not yet got someone angrily commenting on how clearly wrong you are for spending money on gear.)
No it does not sound like a fuzz factory ,ok 5% at best
@@petdoe8938 I have a handwired fuzz factory, the gated fuzz on the automatone with mids added is really close to my favorite FF-setting. It doesn't do the oscillation stuff obviously.
For ME, it's a good substitute. To each his own.
Hi my other worry is if one of my pedals goes south ,I can at least play on with a few adjustments to other ones ,hope you get great life out of it and it's worthy of a place on your board ,play free my friend
Dany Meeuwissen that’s a v helpful comment. I’m v tempted by this pedal. I’d expected about £500 so the price is a shock it’s true, but the tones, utility, look, ease of use and likely inspiration it’ll drive make it very, very tempting. I say that as a guy with 5 Pigdog fuzz pedals and I know my fuzz - this one had some killer gating
Glad to see Pete using his Purple Tele again, sounds awesome, and Lee just vibing along. This pedal is really something special (self movie sliders are very satisfying to watch) I believe it is the future of pedals. It has the Gain pedals built in, the Wah function, endlessly tweakable EQ and Pre sets function. What 👏 else 👏 do👏 you 👏 need!!!!!🤘🔥✌️
P.s. The editing is on point, give the editor a medal.
The editing-game on this video is next level. Although whenever The Captain said 'Jump', I started to flinch!
I just bought a car for 750 quid and the wheels work on their own !!!
musoman Does it have Midi thru ?
If the wheels are working on their own I’m sorry to tell you but I think your car is broken!! 🤷🏼♂️😋
David Burke ....yeah.....you need "Drive" or "Overdrive" pedal....just the brake and the accelerator aren't the only pedals you know....
Lol I love watching him tweak the mids to show the sound when in fact the mid circuit is turned off 😆
Great playing. Great comedy. Great editing! Love it!
Liked within the 1st minute for the editing! Good job LOL
intheblues should be receiving his cheap Chinese copy before weeks end. ;)
And it’ll be sxxx :-)
Hahahahaha.....nice!!!!
And he'll tell everyone its better than the original
Having just watched 27mins of British Billy Mays fud and fumble his way through a $750 preamp, I would take Shane and his budget reviews over this any day. No amount of cringey laughter or memed up editing is going to smooth that out. My only hope is that Pete makes it out alive before they mold him into Chappers 2.0
@@Estoril_Blau sorry friend they already have.
It sounds like one of those shits that really hurts on the way out but leaves you feeling amazing and empty like you can float.
:-) Brilliant synopsis. I laughed so much I drew mud in me pants.
Amazing
😂😂😂
Hahahahaha
Best review of that pedal ever, what a nice tones you can get.
Keep the funny edits going!!! hahaha those made my day! By the way great pedal!!!
I Sold 5 pedals and a mini amp, to pay for the ‘Automatone’ and I’m so pleased I did it.
In the studio, it’s killer...but I don’t think I’ll be taking it out the house. I still have enough pedals left, for that.
I sold 6 dirt pedals to get mine. They were all the ones the it was going to replace. The Automotone sounds great. And I think people look at the price backwards. I think it a great price. I put money back in my pocket after buying it a selling my others.
therangersinger I think, for what this is, it’s a good price too. Any reliability issues on those faders alone, would be a disaster for them, in repair costs. From all the interviews I’ve seen with Joel Korte, that’s what they’ve been putting to test for the last couple of years and they seem very confident with the design. Plus the ‘Automatone’ range is being expanded this year with the CXM 1978 Reverb...Must resist.
@@basilandrigsby the reverb does look sweet.
Nice!
I work in a supermarket in Melbourne and I got the benson + hedges reference 😄
@@docamosroxie8686 Yep... smokes.
Monsters degree sounds effects so cool not to mention the best I've heard, amazing thanks for sharing sir
Awesome editing!
9:49 Pete is trying so hard not to laugh at his wide/narrow comment.
Mr. Bean.. That’s whom I’m thinking of when I see the captain mess around with the sliders. Lol.
lol
Killer pedal love it, I'm definitely getting one!
Loved Pete’s face after he said “wide-on”. I don’t think anyone else in the room noticed him say that, but don’t worry Pete, I heard... I heard.
I think the captain thinks “cool cat hipster” means “middle age dad”.
Are you making an ageist comment? If so, then the answer is that a young cat is a pussy.
Meaning zero entitlement to the cat title even when you had been reared to believe you are entitled.
An older person might also add that hipster is not the superlative of hippie, but rather a contemporary petit-bourgeois movement with elitist dress codes that do not pertain to the election of responsibly thinking political leaders.
JP dJ man you must be smoking some quality shit. Good work.
JP dJ I think it was a joke.
Who else can afford anything he sells? :) I don't know anyone under 40 with a disposable income anymore in the UK.
I don't consider 0% interest free credit disposble mind you ..
@@Smart-Alex - I thought it might be a joke, but then thought, it is at the expense of a named person and worse, plays with discrimination. In my culture, both are more or less forbidden, so it needs satire or irony or cynicism or sarcasm. Now read my piece again in the voice of Bette Midler telling a joke, or Louis CK reciting urbandictionary
That was an absolutely filthy sound! I'm going to go figure out how to afford one right now.
Oh and the cigarettes are/ were common in Malaysia too.
This is absolutely enjoyable. Thanks, gents!
the editing on this video is awesome
Nah, not for me. Those sliders will be full of crisps and sock fluff before I get out of lock down. Let’s see what a relic version looks like! On the used market. 👍🇦🇺
There will be those average players who buy one hoping to impress.
Mitch Arney no matter what I buy I won’t impress..😃
Mitch Arney and there will be plenty of slightly better than average players trying to impress by using a certain type of Tubescreamer, or top-wrapping their Les Paul tailpiece, etc. etc. just because someone truly good and famous does it or did it. We all make our own choices and have our foibles. Why don’t we just stop criticising the decisions of others just because we wouldn’t have made the same one? This “calling out” players for buying nice gear because “it’s not worth it” or in some cases because “they’re not good enough player to warrant nice gear” has become a really nasty and pernicious part of the RUclips comments section in the past couple of years and it should really stop. By all means make your own decisions about gear, and make comments about what gear you like or don’t like, but let’s stop before we criticise the decisions of other people.
David Burke Man you just mounted your high horse and rode it to some kind of self imposed moral high ground. Read the comment and work out it’s not a dig it’s a choice not to buy one. Who gives crap if others decide to buy them, I don’t want one. Your rant reeks of hypocrisy with a hint of superiority complex.. Lighten up..
Jimmy Jimmy and I think you misunderstood that my comment wasn’t in response to yours. 🤷🏼♂️ My comment was very specifically to Mitch Arney who criticised “average players” for buying something like this to impress other people. I have no issue with you or anyone else deciding not to buy this or any other piece of gear, and I have no issue with your original comment (hence why I didn’t reply to you!)... I would have thought that was pretty clear from my comment. What I have an issue with is with people criticising people for what they DO choose to buy, and feeling that that is somehow an ok thing to do especially if it’s an expensive piece of gear or if the buyer is not the world’s most stellar player.
The Benson & Hedges joke didn't fly over this American's head (mom and dad are lifer B&Hers).
Canadians got it...
Likewise... My grandma’s brand. Never knew it wasn’t American.

I smoked those bad boys in highschool 😎 Benson and Hedges Menthol light 100's 🤣
Reminds me of stealing those cigs from
My friends grandpa 25 years ago .. unfiltered !
Intro and the first playing with the pedal sound like my old Line6 spider on the 'insane' channel with everything cranked! 😄
Morning/evening Andertons! This pedal is amazing. I need one in my kit, but that price... I can get a nice amp or guitar for that. Hahaha
Thanks for the videos. They are always high points in the day.
It seems to me that this pedal is a retirement gift to one self. An amazing pedal for sure
How did it go?
Sounds like there are a good few very excellent distinct gain sounds in there, all with super articulation and low noise floor. That’s going to cost you the best part of a grand, so it’s not necessarily overpriced. Just not affordable for me
Very nice Telecaster btw... And superbly noodled as always.
Top level editing guys. Best guitar channel out there.
Cool pedal but I can think of a million other things that I'd buy first for €830
@@Various_Artist He said, that he can think of other things, that he WOULD buy for that amount of money. Never said anything about his financial situation. I can also think of something I would buy, if I had X amount of money, if I had that amount. Doesn't mean I do have it.
Also, even if the guy was a millionaire and could spend money however he wanted, what the hell do you care? Leave the guy alone. It's his money, he can spend it on whatever thing he wants.
Nope! I was expecting about $450(+/-) USD, but not €830!
What a load of horse 💩, the sliders/faders aren't worth that much as individual components... They last a long time component wise, but the pricing is a bit ridiculous. No, it's absurd!
I can afford it, SURE! However, I CANNOT justify it.
Buy an all new fuzz pedal, eq pedal, and a volume pedal. You're still way under that range.
€830 is just not even close to what the internals actual value and for that, I'm out!
@@Various_Artist he didn't say he could nor would buy it. He cannot justify the price vs value and he's a smart man for it!
@@ThorsShadow Are you alright, mate? Just tell us you didn't get the joke... it's more... "simple" for you.
@@ThorsShadow you're alright by my book, there was never any form joke.👍🏼
Just a dude who didn't understand the context of the original comment, but I think he realized it. Then he called it a joke.
If it was a joke, I'm waiting for the punchline... ⌚🤔
The best pedal you reviewed ever? Have you already forgotten about the Miku pedal?
Also, 750 pounds for a pedal? I can buy a used tube amp for that. Hell, I could probably buy a pretty good new amp for that.
$750 USD is the price of a brand new in box 40 watt Marshall DSL
@@jomomma193 EXACTLY what I was thinking.
You could get a Vox Ac-30, which is pretty sweet.
Forget all that. With this pedal you don't need to buy any other drive related pedal. This covers probably 99.9% of sounds you have from screamers to klons to others... It also makes amps sound amazing, even if they have crappy preamps, just plug the mkii to the return of your fx loop and magic happens... This is, by far, the best drive pedal I have ever purchased, and I have most of them...
Equisite pedal.....WOW!
Don't know about you but I feel like I know the Captain & Danish Pete like friends although I've never met them.
Years of listening/watching gear reviews........
Hope they never stop reviewing and keep being themselves.
Love.
9:48 and danish pete uncorks the wide-on gag. Followed by Brent like into camera stare and grin. Quality.
It’s neat, butI can think of a lot of other things to spend $800 on.
It's worth 8 pedals
Diax1324 that’s the factor right there. What it does and how it sounds adds up to the price tag I think. I’m getting one no doubt.
@@Diax1324 no it isn't
Alex Jones there’s nothing like a well reasoned argument backed up with facts... and that’s nothing like a well reasoned argument backed up with facts. 😋
Truth is, for some guitarists with multiple drive pedals, fuzzes, boosts, etc. on their board this pedal absolutely could be worth 8 pedals (or more in terms of its sonic flexibility not to mention its compact size compared to multiple separate pedals it could replace on a board). For guitarists who have one or two drive pedals that they love, couldn’t imagine replacing and don’t want or need any more for their sound then it’s clearly not worth 8 pedals to them. It’s not a product designed to be universally appealing to everyone.
That’s 4 Boss Katanas!
Some great sounds, but once the novelty has worn off (as it always does) the pocket will hurt like crazy......£60 for a TS mini is more my level...best wishes
This one is right up my alley. I think this is more of a studio piece, but it's worth every penny I am sure
The Captain rocking a San Pellegrino lemon soda! Best drink🙌
The UIUX Designer side of me is drooling and trying to justify buying a pedal I dont need.
We're getting to a point where kids we'll be saying "should I buy a guitar or a pedal?" Lol
really nice tone at 5:50 thanks for the settings
That intro jam made me smile
I wonder how you feel about the pedal now after a year later… still the best of the best?
Damn I want this. Damn I cannot afford this. Damn. I feel like my teenage self in the 1980s looking at Bang & Olufsen ads. Unobtainium. But damn I want it. It seems like it does everything I want from a preamp/eq pedal but with knobs (or sliders) on. I couldn’t give a damn about the robotics, so long as they don’t break down.
Just like I want a vintage Marantz receiver... I totally understand! And, I want this, too, along with their reverb unit.
Pete, your honk for Joey didn’t go unnoticed. 😂
Ever since discovering the Milkman pedal and Victory's stuff I've been all about preamp pedals. This is perfect for me!
Troy Jeffrey what’s the Milkman like?
You could almost get a Miku for that price. Tough choice.
I’m pretty sure I could sell my entire rig and still not be able to afford this
Coolest intro of the channel yet 😄
The editor is nailing it
Whoops, you put the decimal point in the wrong price on the website.
I mean, £749, could you imagine if that was the real price!
To be fair to Anderton’s that’s a really good price in the UK for the Automatone. The cheapest I’ve found it anywhere else is £800 and most places are upwards of that!!
PS. And before anyone decides to r/woosh me... yes, I know the original comment about the decimal point was a joke, and yes I understood it. I just wanted to make a serious point off the back of finding out from this comment that Anderton’s are selling it for £749.
@@davidburke2132 Anderton's could discount it another $600 and it wouldn't change the fact that it's over grossly priced.
Cal Thompson erm... ok. For a start, I think you mean “grossly over priced” not “over grossly priced”. Secondly, clearly you understand nothing about product development costs let alone the cost of manufacturing in high labour cost countries like the USA. It’s fine to not like this product, or to not think it’s good value for money for you and your needs or compared to the functionality of other products at lower cost, but it’s ludicrous to ignore the costs associated with bringing such a radically different first entrant product type to a market such as this and expect to be able to buy it for the same (or less) than a single-setting preamp pedal, which is what you’re doing.
@@davidburke2132 I find this issue with every single chase bliss gear demo and I'm so glad to see someone backing it up. Actually understanding the amount of man hours it takes to not only build these things, but to create them from scratch?! Unbelievable. My favorite pedal brand ever and I'm only on my way to getting my second pedal from them.
Peter said "wide on" & this has amused me because its rude!
He was dying to laugh. 😂
No matter what the title states, when you see Danish Pete coupled with the purple Tele popping in video's thumbnail, you KNOW you'are in for high-quality content, plus half way through you already want to buy everything he mentions.
Montage in the beginning = instant like
Should make a reasonably priced version, replace those automated faders with rotary encoders
You can buy a Benson preamp. Rotary encoders are worse than automated faders.
A Chase Bliss Brothers pretty much already is that. Nice pedal too and much cheaper.
Henri the Horse cheaper to repair though. I could just see some guy buys this thing and the lead singer prances right on top of the faders and breaks it. Band breaks up, guy sells pedal for $300 because repairs are too costly and takes his last $300 to the horse track loses it all and turns to a life of crime. 5 years later he’s addicted to meth and giving handys to the former lead singer in the parking lot of a rest stop.
@@anthonydallarosa8314 Dude, you need to work for the Gear Whores Anonymous to spread to gospel about the dangers of high quality pedals!
Henri the Horse 🤣🤘
Can someone please explain to my missus that all I need to sound like Pete is a custom shop tele and a £750 pedal please? 🤔🤔😉👌
Never mind the Victory amp.
You shouldn’t have to explain anything if your a real man
@@jameswilde6713 ah.... Yes. That as well. Good point. 😂
@@bmark7951 braver man than I 😂 I happen to like living in my house.
Yes. Give me her number. I promise she won't care what you buy after that.
I wish my recorder was built like this! Love the look I bet the feel is just as good. As far as sounds go I'm not too impressed by it. But build is to die for!
These two are so entertaining.
You lost me at £750
Can't wait for the behringer clone.
antonio vedenbul if you’re putting a $1000+ pedal on a pedalboard you’re most likely not touring with it or you can afford to replace it. also its versatile sure but whatever sound you like on it can be recreated. its just sound manipulation man
Ryan Petrak yeah but you need like 8 individual pedals to replicate the sound “maaaaaan”
@@paulillingworth90 yeah that still wouldnt come close to the price, and you could find way richer sounds when you have more options, when you have different pedals. this is a cool device for spoiled beginners
Ryan Petrak ....or for some of us who don’t have endless free hours to try to dial in perfect tones. This has it all and is insanely desirable. Already planning to sell a bunch of pedals so I get this.
Coolest pedal ever?! I think the captain is forgetting about the Korg Miku
No, the Miku was the funniest pedal ever... funny and cool are often two very different concepts. 😜
Bought one. Outstanding. I did buy it BEFORE I saw your performance though.
The expression pedal is a Boss EV-30 dual expression pedal. (control 2 pedals at once). Need a TRS cable (included). The dark blue chassis is the EV-30, while the light gray chassis is a volume pedal (FV-30L or H). Boss makes a massive volume/expression combo pedal, the FV-500L or H.
Seems like a lot could go wrong mechanically with it unless the build is extremely good
Only time will truly tell... but it’s why Chase Bliss spent literally years developing and rigorously testing it. Watch Paul David’s video on it... he goes into much more detail about its development, clever features to prevent slider mechanism damage, how it works even if the slider servos stop working, etc. etc. Chase Bliss really seem to have put a lot of engineering effort into this, and to a large extent that’s what is coming out in the price. Maybe we should be judging this thing along the lines of being “reassuringly expensive”?
I’ve had a Faderport with mechanical faders running 8-10hrs a day for 3 years. Same type of tech, so I’m pretty confident...
Yes, it's expensive. But it seems like something you might use for 20 years and might be worth 10 times as much by then. Also, it seems like it can replace so many of the functions of a comparably priced amplifier.
I don't know a single working musician who could use this for 20 years. That thing wouldn't last 6 months of gigs. Just look at a working musician's sticky, dirty XLR cables after one gig at a bar.
@@davecarsley8773 there is a cover for the sliders bud
As somebody who plays multiple instruments, regularly through multiple rigs, in multiple genres, and all of my instruments (guitar to guitar, bass to bass, etc) sounding rather different, one or two to the point where I have to eq it differently to remotely fit in a mix, this would be a GREAT investment. Im excited to get one
@@ParaBellum2024 There aint a thing wrong with that, man. I'd take that any day myself if I could. Lol. I just do quite abit of session work and fill ins.
Who edits these videos 😂😂 also Lee’s strat sounds so good!
Not too much money for an invisible assistant...
£750!-I can get over 1000 plectrums for that!
I think for the money, it seems like it would be a great studio real time plug in for recording.
Patch 3 with the mids down sounded like a Watkins Dominator. Super unique sound, now in a box.
I sold mine after 10 minutes of playing. Be sure what you want, when you order it. It sounds cool, but I'm pretty much covered with good tools.
For real? What you didn’t like?
@@kalkidasofficial i liked it very much! But buyers regret was REALLY big with this one, as I am covered with stupid good pedals already, I was worried, that this will go kaputt in a very short time just by looking at it. Would have never attached this to a board, too expensive!
Literally every guitar channel is reviewing this
The markup on these must be massive.
That’s how review embargoes in journalism work. Nothing new.
Not really, Paul Davids did a video weeks ago already.
I had been thinking of one of these. Watched this video, immediately switched over to buy one. 4 - 6 week backorder. Still ordered it. :(
Well, that's soundly answered - the Captain sounds flippin' GREAT through it. (That said, it's a pity so much of the cost probably comes from simplifying the user interface.)
Captain! Don’t click bait...
Do play more.
give us one without the motor faders and presets for 300€ pls.
Noise gated fuzz with the volume down sounds like a bunch of farting mosquitos going into a bug zapper😱 I love it!!!
The good news for Pete is that he can do a tap dance on the sliders, break 'em and the pedal itself will still work. The sliders themselves have a setting whereby you can change presets and the sliders DON'T move.
I kinda want it, but the main factor in that is that it's got sliders, and sliders look cool. It's very cool, but very unnecessary
The sliders are very useful because presets are annoying when the knobs or sliders don't move according to the them.
