I love the distortion side. I love overdrive and transparent drives but distortion is a lot more fun to play and tap and just make the guitar scream. I’d love to use the octave side of the FUZZ with the distortion side of the Asabi. You really nailed the Marshall tone. My favorite amp I ever owned and regret selling as a dumb 21 year old was a JCM 800 with the 1960A cab. Even the cleans were amazing but you could feel that thing in your chest when you cranked it up. A lot of bass.
Nothing like a good gold top with P90s. They always sound awesome and feel great to play. Great wood is always used. Same for my 61 RI. SG. The wood is too notch and I was always a Strat player and sold my old Les Paul thinking Strats were it for me. But lately I’ve really been liking Gibsons more in the middle position with the tone knobs turned half way down for that Clapton tone. But, most of all, Gibsons aka Humbuckers or P90s can really scream with a lot of gain.
Incredible pedal. The range of dynamics is out of this world, but good God, Mateus’ playing is just insane. Every time I see this guy play, he brings it up a few notches. What a player!
@@JacksonAudio He would sound great with a DS-1 but the tone would be no where near as good as the Asabi. Jackson pedals in person are amazing trust me. The Bloom and the Fuzz are ridiculously good pedals, both built like tanks especially the Bloom. This pedal blows away a DS-1 though I get your point. I’ve played a ton of Boss pedals and I love the Vibrato pedal and the OD-1 and the new Waza Heavy Metal but Jackson pedals are in a different league imho. Try the Bloom on any amp set clean, edge of break up or stacked with a drive and you’ll be blown away by the sustain and tone. Everything just pops, especially when finger picking or playing slide. Also, most Fuzz pedals do not offer and Octave up option. You either have an octave fuzz or a regular fuzz but Brad was smart enough to add the octave up option, something I always wanted in a Tone Bender or Fuzz Face and with the insertable chips that you can pop in the back, you can get a Bender sound or a Fuzz Face tone and add that octave up and it’s just killer, super easy to get the tones you want and so much fun to play. I’ve spent hours with the Fuzz and it’s top notch and I own vintage Benders and Fuzz Faces and a Foxx Tone Machine and it’s equal and on the same level.
Two equally inspiring people on one stage. One makes you pick up your guitar, one makes it sound amazing. Love you Mateus and Brad. Thanks for coming into our lives.
Oh man a Soldano, a Gold Top with P-90’s and Mateus actually playing the Asabi! So awesome. Huge Jackson pedal fan. I have the Fuzz with a couple different inputs and it’s amazing with the octave up option. I also have the Bloom and it’s one of the best compressors around, right up there with my Cali 76 and Jam DynassoR but with so many more options and it’s built like a tank. Amazing sustain and the same goes for the Fuzz. This pedal I’ve been meaning to buy for a long time and this video just reminded me to buy one. Love anything that produces a hot rodded Marshall style pedal. I love how much distortion it can produce when you wanna go into EVH mode. Love the Mid hump too. Mids make the guitar sound to me that’s why I’ve always had a TS-808, HW now on my board. I own lots of TS pedals and have stacked them with the Fuzz and Bloom and it sounds amazing.
Ese mateus asato se pasa de madres.... Como toca esa guitarra es una bestia el mejor de todos los tiempos mis respetos que Dios lo bendiga y siga adelante 🙏
The whole time i thought is was a distortion pedal with a boost when it's really a drive pedal with a different clipping like the golden boy and broken arrow and the Asabi distortion this is sick I need to save up asap
I love how Brad is committed to always evolving and moving forward and pushing the parameters of design! I have a golden boy that will never leave my board! You guys are on the forefront of innovation and it's a joy to be along for the ride!
With the Optimist now out, there aren’t many circuits you guys haven’t covered. This sounds amazing. They all sound amazing and mostly appreciative of you bringing things like gain cycling and volume leveling to pedals. Basically technology making musicians lives easier.
@@JacksonAudio cool thanks. Never thought of soldano as a pedal platform amp. They’re one of the best IMO at what they do but haven’t seen too many people throw pedals in front of them often. They’re pretty much the king of modern day overdrive/gain lead tone IMO.
Vc pode me explicar a diferença ? Eu não consigo entender o som dele ..tem fluência , sons lindos, acordes lindos… mas não sinto emoção musical, sinto como efeito sonoro, agrupamento de sons , bom para fundo de um filme …. sinto falta de melodia de impacto , riff de arrepiar , surpresa , impacto. Sou da velha guarda , fã do Jeff Beck, George Benson, Jimi Hendrix, Johnny Winter etc..
@@siricortana9550 nothing wrong with that. I've been playing along time and should be better for the time I've been playing (if that makes sense) but I love guitars, everything about them. Just wish I had more time to get better 😪
Brother, i think music is art, and art is a way to express something. You should keep playing if you want to express yourself through music and let your heart speak through your guitar. Doesn't matter if it sounds, good, matter if you feel good playing. "Being good" is not a good reason for anything, trust me, there will always be someone better than you and me at everything, but your life, your thoughts, your art is exclusively yours, therefore, unique. Cheers.
@@gabrielchaves7768 yeah that makes a lot of sense, thank you. There is always a tendency to be self analytical when it comes to playing, especially these days where you can watch so many great players instantly. I think Jeff Buckley once said "music is endless" and its true. One thing I've always thought about guitar playing is anyone can learn something from anyone else,regardless of their skill or experience. If you are strumming your first chord, you've so much to learn from others and vice versa, if you are a virtuoso, you can still learn something from that person playing their first chords which I find encouraging. I think things like RUclips can be helpful with playing but also they can hold people back as (myself certainly) you end up trying to be as good as someone else or play the same way which to an extent removes alot of your own creativity and approach. I will never stop playing, even it it means I stick within blues pentatonics forever. Thanks for your kind words
@@wolfbrother2474 It is a generational issue, i think. So much pressure to be productive, to be the best nowadays. I think life doesn't work like that - even God rested on the saturday haha. Musicians like Victor Wooten, that are so good but treat and teach music in such a simple way, i think are great resources to learn from. Mad respect, bro. Glad my opinion can be of any good to you. Cheers to your pentatonics!
I love your pedals and I love Mateus, but I must say this pedal seems like it was your design and wanted to slap Mateus’ name on it somehow. Not that this is a big deal, I love how the pedal sounds. It just feels unnecessary.
Not true at all. We worked on the ASABI with Mateus for months to get it the way he wanted it. It was easily the most time consuming product we have every produced.
@@JacksonAudio fair enough, but the fact that the emphasis was put more on the technical aspect of the pedal instead of the actual sound design for the pedal doesn’t make it seem like it. Again, this is coming from someone who loves your pedals and what you do. It might be just how it came off. I’m sure I’m not the only one who perceived it that way.
@@joaguilar7 oh it’s a great pedal for sure. I just feel like if it was the case, it could’ve been presented in a better way to showcase Mateus’ input on it. That’s all. Just a recommendation moving forward I guess.
The guitar world isn't the same without him, glad to see him back
Yes!!
Mateus is just the best and Brad is incapable of building anything that doesn't sound great.
Thank you Shawn. So kind of you. :) - Brad
@Shawn Tubbs
That's high praise coming from you. Love your channel and work.
@@gui-texzan7477 Thanks very much!

Give this man a signature pedal and I will buy it in a heartbeat
Yes. Mateus, you're playing has been missed my friend!
He's just paying the bills
I didn't know I needed Mateus on a P90 Gibson but I definitely do.
Nothing like a good gold top with P90s. They always sound awesome and feel great to play. Great wood is always used. Same for my 61 RI. SG.

Incredible pedal. The range of dynamics is out of this world, but good God, Mateus’ playing is just insane. Every time I see this guy play, he brings it up a few notches. What a player!
The problem with these demos: players like Mateus make anything sound great. He would sound the same with a DS1…
That's because Mateus is a phenomenal musician. If he wanted to play a DS1 he would. He just happens to like the product that we built together.
@@JacksonAudio He would sound great with a DS-1 but the tone would be no where near as good as the Asabi. Jackson pedals in person are amazing trust me. The Bloom and the Fuzz are ridiculously good pedals, both built like tanks especially the Bloom. This pedal blows away a DS-1 though I get your point.

@@JacksonAudio yeah I don't think that's what the op meant.
Put anything on Mateus and it will sound good. But these Jackson pedals do sound legit. Hope to get my hands one soon!
Funny how Sweetwater won’t let him play his Suhr
And it’s not the same tone with les Paul
Every time I listen to him play I reach for my guitar
I put mine away and listen😂
*and cry*
6:46 I also felt the guitar out of tune! Asatoooo o lindão do Brasil!!🇧🇷
It’s so creamy and saturated at 100% gain but doesn’t sound at all muddy. What beautiful lush distortion.
This video has everything Good except the Guitar Closeup...Bruh I wanna watch his fingers dancing across the Fretboard
Tear drops when I hear such calm and mellow selection of notes.
Two equally inspiring people on one stage. One makes you pick up your guitar, one makes it sound amazing. Love you Mateus and Brad. Thanks for coming into our lives.
Wow. So kind. :)
Well, Mateus makes me wanna throw my guitar in the garbage.

Thank you Jackson for giving us a rare look and listen to one of our favorite guitar players!
Mateus is great. Great sounding pedal too!
I missed the strato/tele ...
Same. As great as this was I think those guitars are better suited to his style.
my guitar idol.. mateus asato🙏🙏🙏
it is so weird seeing with him gibby. sound really great but still prefer with him strat.
The tele fits him even more. He plays a black Surh Tele at NAMM 2019. That was magic
@@jabr6349 2020*
I miss mateus asato come back to IG or RUclips
Mateus is a fabulously nuanced player. Brad made a home run choice hiring him to present this pedal. Bravo to them both.
Ese mateus asato se pasa de madres.... Como toca esa guitarra es una bestia el mejor de todos los tiempos mis respetos que Dios lo bendiga y siga adelante 🙏
You need bigsby dude
The whole time i thought is was a distortion pedal with a boost when it's really a drive pedal with a different clipping like the golden boy and broken arrow and the Asabi distortion this is sick I need to save up asap
Skill and soul. Few could reach such level...
Queremos uma pedaleira com pelo menos uns 3 timbres mateus asato,, certo que compraria
I LOVE my Asabi!!
The best sounding guitar efx w a gold top held by a guy who’s floating away and away from the Earth.
Gibson 😞 tune
talk about a match made in heaven! two of the best at what they do!
man....so kind of you. Thank you Larry. :)
I love how Brad is committed to always evolving and moving forward and pushing the parameters of design! I have a golden boy that will never leave my board! You guys are on the forefront of innovation and it's a joy to be along for the ride!
@@larryrock11 "If you're not first you're last!" - Ricky Bobby
Shake and Bake!
Is there a noise gate built in the asabi drive?
Incrível como esse cara toca!
Mateus is legend 🎸👏🏻
Amazing demo well done Jackson Audio. Is this pedal available in the UK?
Thank you! Yes you can find Jackson Audio pedals at Andertons Music Co. In the UK.
Good things come to those who wait.
Orgulho do nosso brasileiro Mateus asato.
With the Optimist now out, there aren’t many circuits you guys haven’t covered. This sounds amazing. They all sound amazing and mostly appreciative of you bringing things like gain cycling and volume leveling to pedals. Basically technology making musicians lives easier.
And you knew you had to wait for a week and present it with "the best ever "even if he had chosen to take a guy named Bruno's call. Right?
Mateus is always worth waiting for. ;)
@@JacksonAudio Always
I want it
Mateus Asato on guitar is an awesome way for my vacation to start!
🔥
When the what!!! I didnt know he came to sweetwater! I would have went down there and said hi or something.
Very nice mateus you have imagination.. Conratulation..
Gibson best les paul ever i guess. I'm a huuuuge gibson's fan
Mateus!!!!
They're still using wire leads, instead of wireless tech 🤦 Asato is great as always.
🔥🔥🔥
Thanks
Wow 😮🎸🔥
JC got to him too?! 54 gold top! The best twin P90 guitar!
Será que teremos uma Gibson assinatura Mateus Asato?
Mateus come back soon on RUclips
My best guitarist
This brand is great
Love
😍🇧🇷
Is the overdrive section similar to a golden boy??
Not at all. More Timmyesque.
oh YES
What's the. Guitar he is on pls?
Gibson Les Paul Goldtop with P90 pickups. I don’t know the year of the guitar model.
🤤❤️❤️
tá vivo meu mano?
Fantástico
Maybe I missed it but what amp/modeler etc is the pedal running through?
No amp modeler. It’s a Soldano SLO. There’s a shot of the amp in the intro.
@@JacksonAudio cool thanks. Never thought of soldano as a pedal platform amp. They’re one of the best IMO at what they do but haven’t seen too many people throw pedals in front of them often. They’re pretty much the king of modern day overdrive/gain lead tone IMO.
@@mmatthewias280 The clean channel is very "fendery" so that channel is a great pedal platform.
Existem vários obsecados por teoria musical que insistem em tocar jazz fusion nunca vão entender esse som do Matheus
Vc pode me explicar a diferença ? Eu não consigo entender o som dele ..tem fluência , sons lindos, acordes lindos… mas não sinto emoção musical, sinto como efeito sonoro, agrupamento de sons , bom para fundo de um filme …. sinto falta de melodia de impacto , riff de arrepiar , surpresa , impacto. Sou da velha guarda , fã do Jeff Beck, George Benson, Jimi Hendrix, Johnny Winter etc..
nothing sounds better than shur. youre incomplete without shur guitar
Anybody can improvise
aposto q esses que estão gritando na plateia é brasileiro kkkk
Literally no reason for me to keep playing, I will never be this good 😥Anyone want to buy a 2004 Lester
I am the exact opposite of you. My playing is very average, but I love the sound of my playing and can't stop playing the guitar. 😁
