@@riffswamp - Yeah - I'm really/mainly interested in hearing a good quality comparison of the CB and OBNE oil can emulators ... if the boys can borrow a Tel-Ray or similar, that would be great too; though I'm not about to mess around with actual oil - I do that for motorbikes, but tape is enough hassle when it comes to sound/music! ;P As Dan said, the originals are thin on the ground and (I suspect) overrated; people have made repro ones and - as Dan also mentioned - the oil used in them is quite particular/expensive (apparently ...), so I'd be more interested in a modern repro, excpet then the cost would definitely outweight the benefit for me, I suspect ... Cool novelty factor, and the emulators seem a different flavour of delay which can be justified (whether good emulations of the originals, or not ...)
The oil can setting was my favorite setting on the alter ego delay from TC. Still got rid of it and have been looking at the Black Fountain and the Adinekko since.
I was soooooo happy to finally see more of the Jazzmaster. Then he put it down and then I was sad. Then he picked up the Gretsch and I got happy again. Then he put it down and I got sad. Roller coaster of emotions today guys. Thank you for what you do.
I’m consistently amazed at your ability to find unique pedals, by lesser known builders, and demo them so well that people just want to order em right up! Excellent episode! Cheers.
As far as RUclips search and discovery algorithms go, I think the name change will do you guys good. Hoping it results in a boost in views, you guys have more than earned it.
The giggle fit Dan has after muttering "thats what she said" about the "too big" Octahive and looking up... The little kid in us never dies, as it shouldn't!!!
An oil-can show would be fantastic! Morley made a treadle style oil-can delay later on in the Tel-Ray line as well. To then compare originals to the Catalinbread, OBNE, EQD Space Spiral, and Greer Black Tiger would be an awesome time
I think Howard Gee from Catalinbread would be such an amazing guest. Great designer and incredible guitarist. Quite a long trip from Portland to that pedal shed though.
ttb fan Last I heard, they(Mother/owner) were suing him, and three others for conspiring to misappropriate Catalinbread intellectual property, tangible property, and protected trade secrets. That was before the summer. I think some Shenanigans went on after the founder died in 2016. You can find the court stuff online pretty easy.
Howard is no longer with Catalinbread. He has a great Instagram feed where he demonstrates his brilliant playing. He was a great designer. I don't know the court details but given that he was their main designer alongside the founder (RIP), it seems really crappy that he would be sued for misappropriating intellectual property. They are still selling the Belle Epoch Deluxe and separate preamp units he designed, among many others.
Michael Kay After the founder died suddenly, his mother swooped in, and they tried to buy the company from her. It seems they really didn’t want to work fir her. Howard, being the main designer, is just the most well known, but three others left as well, then she sued.
So glad to see some Beetrononics on TPS! I'm a few weeks behind so I missed the Swarm on the Synth show. Octahive is one of a few Beetronics units already on my wishlist.
Great job! Keep all of you’re good ideas and teaching coming please! Don’t worry about how long you go really! We love to join you guys on all of your adventures. Cheers.
Glad to see the OBNE Black Fountain on here. Got one a few weeks ago and really took to it. It can sit under your playing and give just the right amount of mood. A very, very organic pedal. Maybe not for everyone, but definitely for me!
Good concept guys, the other half of the internet is already good at demos, putting the pedals in context is a exellent way of dare i say, testing them. Like the episode with the mxr delay, with pristine clear sound its dark,testing against a clear delay. With distortion it really shines wich shows one of its good uses and respects the sound and builder. I like these lessons, thanks! Cheers!
OdetoDan Indeed. I vote for a show dedicated to OBNE pedals!! They’re consistently amazing!! I’d put them up there with the likes of Earthquaker for quality (and propensity for weirdness) but with a smaller range and seemingly much less well known.
For Old Blood Noise Endeavors don't forget they have a great little utility pedal as well called the Expression Slider - a really handy pedal to have with a lot of applications - esp MIDI - and not expensive at US $39. The "Jam" moniker makes more sense at this point in time. I think in time you'll have to find a way to fully distinguish it from your in-depth pedal reviews/explorations..
KILLER! That Ocathive was nuts and very cool. I have never heard of an oil can delay, so a show about that would be very interesting indeed! As far as the new format... Hey, I don't care what you call it, as long as you keep doing it! Great stuff gents!
@@mikeryder9982 I thought when they did they Live VCQ that they said they were changing it from a produced episode to a Live one at different times.. which hasn't happened.
It’s like it’s Beetronics week at TPS ;) but in all seriousness, I got a Black Fountain earlier this summer and love it so much! Also Mick’s coffee is making me nervous.
Beetronics is blowing me away guys, both pedals you’ve played have been just fantastic! I’ve heard the use of windex as a oil alternative works wonders by the way! Cheers!
We need another show about octa-fuzzes. It's been a while and there seems to be an influx of them in the market lately so I'd like to see a bunch of the new and best ones so I can help narrow it down.
Greetings from Finland! Could you do a video for this Royal Blood/Kleopatrick/Black Keys kind of two people band guitar-drums setup? I've had this idea for guitar-drums-duo... I'd be using one or two guitar amps and one bass amp. And ofc both bass and the guitar sides would have their own peda For example: using the first amp for dry clean/od/dist pedals. (Second amp for wet.) And the bass amp for some weird fuzz-whammy-octave-down bassy goodness to bring that massive Royal Bloodish sound for choruses. And you could also use the second amp for some weird background noise with slicers/randomisers (fe. EQD Spatial Delivery on sample hold -mode). Thanks!
Had a Fender Dimension IV, which is more of a vibrato with some echo, hence the Organ setting on the Black Fountain. Oil can delays use Union Carbide LB-65 oil as the fluid. Some have talked about using Windex(!) as the fluid successfully, but I found a source for the Union Carbide LB-65 and bought that. I just sold the Dimension IV recently, as I have a Catalinbread Adineko and it really has the sound (and a lot more). The D IV also had the problem of having to be wired in parallel with a Fender reverb tank. You had to take the reverb send and feed jacks and plug cables from there to the D IV and then from the D IV to the reverb tank. This allowed you to have reverb or D IV, but not both. And only worked with Fender amps, like the Twin Reverb. Not very convenient. Anyway, hope that helps. This too: www.tapatalk.com/groups/telrayoilcanaddicts/
Beyond your blue Strat and red Tele, which have become famous, you guys seem to be consistently predisposed to using guitars with rosewood fingerboards (as I am). I'd be very curious to see a show dedicated to this issue
Dan, I got two TimeLord's for my Strymon FLINT and TimeLine sorted out as well as two ISOLATORS for eight of my 9V low mA analogue pedals. It's serious money, but once I've gotten over the cost and it's all done, I now have a professionial pedalboard and I can just get on with it.
If you want to learn more about the Tel Ray Super Organ tone "oil can" delay, search for Uncle Doug Tel Ray. He has a 2 part video series where he restores a Tel Ray. Uncle Doug restores and repairs all sorts of vintage tube amps, and Hot Rods. Worth a look.
Some lovely sounds there, gents. Here's a production question designed to induce migraines. When one of you is playing while the other is 'fiddling' with the pedals, what's the possibility of a split screen so we can see both? I know, I know, sorry Mick!
We’ve put them on hold for a minute Matt. Not enough views. Maybe after the summer.... erm which is now. The summer is a disaster for business. Our business anyway.
@@ThatPedalShow Maybe save them for more technical episodes? People have more questions after board/circuitry/'verb/speaker/gain/whatever-related shows.
Well this whole show became a massive add for the Octahive for me lol. (I really did enjoy the whole video and all the pedals) I do not have anything like that octahive though..
I have my own theory on what causes the decrease in views for "Pick'n' mix" episodes: they are the most terrifying episodes because the variety of pedals increases the chances of triggering G.A.S. With that said, I would love to see you guys try the Keeley Fuzz Bender one of these days.
Everything sounded great. I’ve missed Pick and Mix. This is the first time a Jazz Master hasn’t sounded super thin to me also. Usually they just lack something to my ears.
This was awesome! Great pedals all. Here's the sum total of my Oil Can delay knowledge: the Oil Can engine on my Nemesis sounds epic! It's one of my presets.

Dan, have you bonded with the Jaguar yet? You sounded killer on it in that first video when it arrived - would love to see it more! Throw some 12-60s or 12-56s on there and it'll feel more like home 👍🏻

Pick n Mix made sense to me guys. You pick a bunch of pedals and you mix them together to explore sounds.

yes, so funny :)
Mine too, nice pick up!
You won't like me when I get angry :-D

Have you guys ever looked into getting Philip sayce on the show? One of the best blues rock players alive today!
Guys, you forgot to plug in the mug shaped pedal.
Coffee mug delay, to go with the oil can delay.
Apparently its best warm.
That mug is truly-bypassed. ;)
Looks like it probably has a nice creamy tone.
Love it! Been hankering for some good ol pick n mix!
I think the silent laugh while someone else is playing something awesome is my favorite part of the show.
That is a legit pedalboard with some unique tones. Sounds killer!

Really liked the format. The jam at the end was great, nice way to show more context. Looking forward to more of these. Cheers.
Loved the Munsters in the middle. Epic.

4:50 That Beetronics Octahive is dirty, filthy, and sick in the best ways possible! I'm so getting that.
It's very Australian. "Fully sick" "Pure filth, mate".
A Pearl of a Pedal Jam !! .... seeing that ☕️mug there always breaks me out in a cold 💦

Would love to see more on oil can delays. I’ve been very interested in finding out more about those. Please make that happen!
I'd absolutely love that too, but it seems working oil can delays are hard to come by. Maybe combine it with a physical plate reverb episode.
Great pedals and even better jam. You guys rock
a video i’d love to see is how you guys service your guitars! love all of your stuff!!
I’m liking the rhythm accompaniment. Quality product as usual
The coffee/tea probably enhanced the overall tone greatly
Antares + Sidekick = special
Hey! You guys need to open up that Octahive and check out the circuit design.... holy crap thats cool!
Oooh, a coffee cup holder for my pedalboard! Need one of those, for sure!
I could have sworn Mick said “Pedal Chaps”. I’d watch that all day.
What does it sound like when you kick on that cup of coffee pedal?? 🎶🎸
It should be toast with different flavors of jam. Then they could kick out the jams.
Brown sound?
It’s part of the wet/dry rig
@@rossedwards73 Bravo! *tips hat*
Great jam outro gents! Mick so funky.. me likey.

What does the 'Cup of coffee' pedal on the board do for your tone?
Adds to the perkiness of your tone and a little extra push for solos
Could also keep you hydrated.....
True bypass with 100% arabica transistors.
Must be for grounding, maybe?
Or compensates for the lack of roasted maple necks
Everything!

I like Pedal Jams. It's a better name especially with the backing tracks.
I'm down for the jams🤘🤟🤙... GREAT EP
Check out the inside of that Beetronics pedal. Looks even better than the outside!
This was awesome! Great pedals all. Here's the sum total of my Oil Can delay knowledge: the Oil Can engine on my Nemesis sounds epic! It's one of my presets. I can mimic all the sounds heard here from the Black Fountain (and dial back the bass if I want to). Source Audio Nemesis - still the best multi delay on the market for my money.
I like the coffee (tea?) on the board... very “knobs”
Yes please on the oil can delay show!
All good love the format . the jam reminded me of some Andy Summers Police stuff . nice
Hey man great channel. Your friend dug told me about it. Looking good so far
I would like to noodle with the octahive and sunset together!
Uncle doug has fixed a couple of oil can delays on you tube. It's the sound of 50's sci-fi/horror films.
The Gretsch sounds amazing and maybe suits Mick's playing better than the the 335?
Dan, have you bonded with the Jaguar yet? You sounded killer on it in that first video when it arrived - would love to see it more! Throw some 12-60s or 12-56s on there and it'll feel more like home 👍🏻
Holy molly, I wonder how many octa hives you guys sold with this video. One for sure, ;)
Please do a show on oil can delays!!!!
Also I believe they use window cleaner as a replacement fluid
If you are doing an oil can episode Nemesis delay has a lovely oil can emulation if you still own it.
Isn't it? Probably my fave algorithm on the Nem.
