some guitarists make you want to put the guitar down and give up, others make you want to pick it back up again and jam because the noise they make is pure joy, that is bea and i have to stop his videos and play for a bit every damn time..... love it!
Bea, I have noticed on many of your videos that your playing becomes much more alive, when you play the Strat. I think the sound of the strat inspires your playing, more than the other guitars you use.
we want to believe theres options in guitar but Stevie and Yngwie knew the best sound is on a strat. i always wondered what dimebag wouldve sounded like on some solos if he used the better sounding strat
@Catherine Halsey lol i understand they both have the best tone in respective genre lol
Just gotta say it never ceases to amaze me how versatile your guitar playing is. Keep it up man!!
Thank you man, that means a lot because it’s something I personally aspire towards. Just because I love so many different styles of music and guitar playing I just wanna be able to do it all hahah, one day!
Rabea Massaad I think that one day has already come Rabea...
What's great about RB is that he gives us full reviews. Not just short, shitty demos like most people that do this. That's why he is the most trust worthy when it comes to equipment.
this might be the best sounding pedal ever made
I agree. I just got mine and after owning no less than 6 other chorus pedals and all the modelers, it’s crazy how just one button on this unit instantly delivers THAT perfect chorus you always were trying to get with tons of knob turning on the other pedals.
This is the best sounding review of this pedal out there. I have one. Thanks again Bea. Spot on.
This is how partnerships with companies should be done. A sincere liking of the products, obviously, but not just singing vague praise or going over the top. A down to earth look at the product with great exploration of the features that all show Rabea's sincerity.
I love Bea's review style, the playing is always to show the product off rather then himself.
So sad I missed you at the video shoot! Hope you're good, pal!
Hands down the best chorus pedal I've ever heard, no need for the knobs, just incredible clarity through both clean and distorted tones.
I was actually looking at videos of the Dimension D chorus pedals last night. I wake up & the 1st thing I see is your video of a new Dimension pedal. I had no idea Boss was releasing a new one. Get out of my head!
Shannon Sharp I don’t think anyone did, what a nice surprise!
Google, face book, and the NSA are monitoring your thoughts via the technology in your hand that asked permission for all of it and you clicked except update, so there you have it.
No one does better pedal reviews than you dude!! Please never stop doing this videos!!! Cheers from Argentina
U r getting really soulful lately, nice.
Hey dude, great demo. Thinking this pedal is going to be a replacement for my old DC3 - really like the fact you can go stereo in and out with this. By the way pal, I'm 53 and have listened to a great many players over the years. You are up there in my top 10 for certain. You have got groove, timing and musicality in spades. I find so much of your playing inspirational and new. Keep treading your path man, it's a real pleasure to share your journey.
This was the secret of SRV’s sound. But he used a rack unit by Roland called the dimension D which he used on several David Bowies recordings, including let’s dance. He used it on his own records also.
You can get his sound by switching to the dimension d sound on the pedal with the switch.
on which of the 4 settings?
Stevie Ray Vaughn’s, style of playing and his tone, can be very much Jimi Hendrix and Eric Clapton combined, but add in his knowledge and style of playing The Blues, Rock N’ Roll, to 60’s style Rock Music, on the cusp of The 21st Century, making a bold statement as we participate on This Rock we know as our home. I’m glad I experienced his contribution to the world of music, and he is sincerely absent; but he lives on through us all.
Rest In 🎼 Paradise 🌟Stevie Ray Vaughn🌟
🌹
Always enjoy your playing. I know this video is 3 years old but it definitely helped in my decision to purchase this pedal.
Thanks
Sounds great. I have an original, and mode 3 is probably my favorite because it oscillates so beautifully. Sounds like this one does it also. Great for single note lead lines. Mode 1 is better than just about every boutique chorus as is.
It sounds incredible in both mono and stereo
Dude i hear Robin Trower all over that thing . What a great combination, that guitar and that pedal.
Oh man, what a tone!
iconic vintage haircut reminding those 70's disco&funk era, makes everything sound much more warmer like glowing tubes )
Your playing is impeccable, excellent showcase for this pedal. The pedal is pretty good too! Now that I hear it in isolation I can identify what it was that I was hearing on so many recordings over the decades. That maple neck Strat is gorgeous in every way. Love a Strat that has a few miles on it!
very cool! i can't wait to see what dan for THAT PEDAL SHOW thinks about it he LOVES his vintage CE-1 chorus ensemble.
First thing I think of is that it reminds me more of detune than chorus. The two are similar, but detune doesn't have the kind of oscillation to it that your typical chorus pedal does. Reminds me of Van Halen's tone during the Hagar era. Even that little snippet around 7:40 gave me vibes of the intro to the song "Feelin" during that time. As far as the tone goes. Van Halen was using an Eventide H series harmonizer and doing wet/dry stuff but this pedal really sort of takes you into that tonal territory imo. This is a fantastic sounding pedal. I'm a metal player at heart, but sometimes I have to kick on a delay/chorus/verb and sit around for hours playing cleans. I just love that sound. It's so inspiring on a melodic level.
You are the undisputed king of strat tone my man.
I always thought of Dimension as being chorus without the wobble. I've missed mine since I sold it in 1990. My DC2Waza arrives today. Seriously excited about this one.
That Strat....That Strat has an AMAZING sound!
0:07 Says doesn't need an introduction and then goes on to give them an introduction 😂
Look at Boss listening to their customers! I LOVE the sound of this chorus and I use the clone version of it that’s on my Line 6 M9. Great playing as always, Rabea. Do the Metal Zone Waza Craft next! lol
He technically actually did, he is in official video: ruclips.net/video/jPjE-_h6A7I/видео.html
However it would be nice if he could make review \m/
Talky guitar vids usually annoy me so much but you are so bloody interesting and good to listen to. Well played!
Very nice presentation augmented by the sincere enthusiasm for discovery of the depth of this pedals capabilities! When an effect pedal is working well you are drawn into deeper creativity expanding your play's vocabulary! You said it and would and demonstrated it!
Sold!!!
Very nice demo and pedal! I wish that Boss would consider bringing HM-2 back
Yeah a mt2 waza and no hm2, bf2 or ph2
But they did just that, MT2 waza was just introduced.
@@lefooo I know I just said that!
I had forgotten this pedal existed!
One of my favourites on RUclips! Keep up the great work Rabea.
Your playing is the truth, and I must listen. Thanks for the constant inspiration
So great, an original blue label was my first pedal back in 2005, love that thing.
That strat has a really nice sou... Oh Bea play's it, that what that is...
Every time your playing sounds so great!
Mode 2 is DEAD ON the guitar sound from Cyndi Lauper's "Time After Time."
Perfect for Purple Rain 👌
Roland SDD 320 is that lush, classic 80s analog sound...now with more dependable parts than their classic analog counterparts. Killer stuff.
That's sounding like a lethal weapon to me Roger, don't you think?
Man i could listen to you use this all day hahaha that strat sounds killer
Mode N0# 2 takes me straight back to the pop-funk of the late 80s.
All I need now is for David Sanborn to enter Rabea´s music room and start playing a mellow sax line. :)
Sounds like 80's rock and blues. Nice one Mr R xD
I had the original Dimension C back in the 90's. didn't use it much, but it did offer a lot of clarity when I did.
Great video and review of the Boss dimension C waza craft, I do have the original one but you can only use one switch at a time, it does have a similar feel in the sound as the waza craft version, love the sound of the dimension C , maybe I should buy the waza craft version there’s more versatility in this unit, very inspiring Rabea 😀😀
Great pedal - the dimension has just something about it...just enough ‘expansion’ of the sound but not too much - and a solid investment. Forced to sell my original DC2 a few years ago and on eBay it maintained its value 25 years after I bought it!
Beautiful, beautiful tones... just paused the video to order one! Now I’m back...carry on 😄
Nice. Want one
btw, he's not independent. he got an inducement from Boss to appear in their official advert for this product.
If a chorus and flanger had a love child this is it and man it sounds good!
That shirt takes me back to 9th grade. Not enough coffee yet to do the math. FML
Bea you gonna make me bankrupt bro, every time I watch your videos I'm like, yeah I'm gonna buy that. I don't know how many times you've made me think, "yeah, thats the pedal I need, could use that pedal."
Amazing video man! Bloody love your playing. I have only one question...where in hell did you get the pedal stand?! NEEEED! 😂
Hahah cheers man! Means a lot coming from you!
That pedal stand is actually one of those mini guitar stands you get with those lookalike miniature guitars you see in souvenir shops.
You know the ones you can get like LP’s, strats, frankenstrat etc... it’s one of those hahah
Rabea Massaad haha. That’s actually genius. Totally stealing that idea. Cheers mate. You’re a well of knowledge 🙌🏻
You can also get small book/card stands from many occult shops which look similar
Bea, the pedal sounded so much better in the mono mode with your sunburst strat, than what it sounded when you played it in stereo with the other strat you had. In any event I have always loved this pedal and the rack unit. The new Waza unit is still amazing too. Great demo my man.
I am so glad I got this pedal. I just used it for the first time with my JS24P into a 50w VFX Series Tone Tubby 2x12 Billy Gibbons brown sound tube amp and it was fucking magical, inspirational and downright superb signal and tone quality. I found jam after jam with this thing, it is So Versatile. Clean or Filthy. It really opened up a soundscape I had never been in before. I ordered it from Sweetwater soon after this review and it was "preorder". I was apprehensive about the price tag but based on what I heard and sensed from Rabea's review, I pulled the trigger. I have not been this happy with my rig since I first unboxed my JS24P. This is a quality pedal and worth it. Now I am wondering what it would sound like with a Bonsai tube screamer ... Andertons really needs to open up a shop in the U.S. ! =) Just my 2cents ;)
Damnit Bea, why is it that every time you demo something, you make me want to buy it😭
Err haha thanks and sorry?!? Hah
No need to apologize man, you just make everything you play through sound great. You're like the King Midas of tone
That is the idea behind using people like him to demo and sell things to you in this familiar format where you dunt even know your being sold, you just thought you were here cus you love guitar TONE.
Good pedal for an Eric Johnson vibe
Dang it, Rabea. Now I need one. Thanks for the vid.
Rabea always delivers.
What a soulful player.
The playing really starts in at 2:50.
He starts with such a thick heavy sound, that it becomes difficult to create much of a contrast in tones since his tone is already so deep
especially for a Strat.
Great demo nonetheless.
the best demo as always!
Cracking demo, mate. Grand playing, as usual.
Great review. I loved what you were doing on the burgundy baritone at the end.
9:37 sounds so close to Clapton in lethal weapon!
Very inspiring sounds and playing
OMFG! Illumo in the background again❤❤
I just watch these to hear you play. You know, you are one of my idols on guitar
Cool Bea. If been interested in that pedal for awhile. Good to see you mess with it. It sounded pretty god.
I have two DC-2's, which I absolutely love. Still excited about this one. The original was mono in stereo out. Also, the original did not allow you to press more than one mode button, or you risk breaking it. On the Roland SDD-320, I believe you could press all 4 if you wanted to. I'd say the only things that would've made the DC-2w even better would be TRS jacks and -10/+4 level switches to mix the rack & pedal world even further. I'm not disappointed. This is awesome and I want one, for sure! Can't wait to shootout both versions for myself!
I really need this! It sounds amazing 🤩
Keep feeling SRV. By that path you will find your own vibe on his style and I can tell it will be really cool.
Great review, honest and amazing playing.
Very inspiring tones Bea, have you ever thought of tabbing out your videos?
It's gorgeous. A lustrous lushness.
Question Bea: what pups are in each of the two Strats?
sounds like GOD of chorus to my ears
I had the original DC-2 this Waza sounds pretty much the same to me. The one thing I didn't like about mine was it would get fizzly on the top end with hot pickups. The DC-2 was kind of the Goth Band secret weapon pedal. I might have to get a Waza... I've also been eyeing the Fromel Seraph DC-2 clone. BOSS DC-2 have been on some notable pedal boards; Reeves Gabrels has one on his Cure live board, Jeff Beck was using a RAT and a DC-2 in the 1990s. Steve Stevens & Warren Cuccurullo used the SDD-320.
This is the closest you can get to playing a Jazz Chorus 120 in a pedal. That’s really what it’s simulating. The way that amp works with its speakers. It’s one of Roland’s greatest achievements along with the Space Echo and the Boss small pedal format. The pedal needs to be played in stereo to get the effect as intended on a JC120.
amazing pedal
Rabea, this is some of the most beautiful playing I have heard.. Thank you
Great on Bass and vocals as well.
Of course it's gonna sound good if you're playing though it...
True that
I like that pedal sounds freaking awesome 👌
I don't care what it really is "technically", I'm going to call it a chorus pedal. An amazing sounding chorus pedal.
That guitar’s pickups are astounding, the levels between the set, and the punch of the neck pup, really something. Do you know what pickups they are?
This has a sound of Leslie West , i almost heard some theme from a imaginary western chords in there , great demo Bea !!!
It sits somewhere in between a chorus, phase and vibe... beautiful but for a specific sound only... good thing to have in my collection tho. Thanks master Bea.
You are a beast awesome versatile playing man, an inspiration, cool pedal :)
The SDE-320 mode is definitely a bit darker. It loses a little bit of the DC-2 top-end fidelity, but the rates of modulation seem a bit slower and more subtle. I really enjoy it!
Love it, great video/demo.
Wow! Want Want Want Want Want
Rootbeer plays with feel!
Thank you for this
NOICE, very 80's..
Love your videos Rabea! I just got this pedal in yesterday and can't wait to hook it up! I have an original DC-2 and love it but, for reasons of wanting to keep it safe, I don't want to gig with it. I was psyched when the Waza version came out. Great extra features too!!!
Mate, your playing is fantastic on this! Absolutely loved it. Pedals not bad either 😉
Hello RB! Greetings from Nepal. I have been watching your videos for a while and they are awesome , your playing is so top notch . Just a small question , your thoughts about Marshall Jackhammer pedal? :) ❤️
Obviously Rabea can't be bothered to write to such a loyal fan from Nepal. This is why I unsubscribed from his channel. He is not interested in fans
Bea... You are so melodically versatile as a player I really enjoy your riffage...I am very early subscriber within the first 50 for certain and a pro skater think Alva posse poster... And that Thrasher shirt is Ace as well... 😊
Dig the stereo inputs and outputs. Love to see a small Boss pedal format that has Midi presets with a collection of modulation fx presets. Still wanting 5 parallel delays (SE-50) updated into a super pedal.
Eightieslicious!!!
