That Pedal Show

This is the audio from our video here: https://youtu.be/KypcmoEpiw0

Today we document Dan’s monster pedalboard build for 2019. It’s been in the works for some time and has changed much along the way… and will continue to change, such is the nature of what we do. It's a cornucopia of gain stacking textures, enhanced with plenty of delay, reverb and modulations. Ostensibly wet-dry, it’s actually dual mono wet - different delays and mods coming out of each side.

Please check out our other board building vids if you want more on the actual build process:

In this episode Dan and I take a listen to the new-for-2019 Echo Fix EF-X2. It’s a modern take on Roland’s seminal RE-201 Space Echo, that uses real tape for the echo/delay effects. We also include some common modern delay pedals, both tape simulation and analog delays, to get an idea of how things compare. What do we think?

 

Enjoy the episode!

They say “never start with an apology”, so we won’t. Not everyone loves vintage guitars – in fact many people think it’s all a load of pish. Dan and I are not such people and so we took this opportunity to visit ATB Guitars in Cheltenham, UK and fill our boots with an afternoon of complete and utter kids-in-a-sweetshop indulgence. 

There is no real point to this video, other than to remind ourselves that it’s only this very moment that ever matters; simply to do and to experience.

MASSIVE thanks to Mike and David at ATB for making us so welcome and letting us have the run of the store! https://www.atbguitars.com/ Instagram @atbguitars

Questions arising…Q: Are vintage guitars really ‘better’? A: No. Modern guitars aren’t better either.

Q: You couldn’t tell in a blind test though, could you?A: Maybe, but if your brain is trying to tell, you’re not doing anything relating to actual music.

Q: That’s every guitar gear video ever, isn’t it?A: Touché. Probably! The bit after the video in the venue or studio is

Q: Did Mick buy that Strat?A: Not today. But one day when the day is right I will.

Q: Why didn’t you play the //insert any guitar we didn’t play here//?A: We chose the ones that interested us the most.

We’ll answer everything else we can in Monday’s VCQ.

Enjoy the episode!

In this episode we welcome the fantabulous Sir Christopher Of Buckshire back to TPS Manor. 

Chris is the Buck in Buck & Evans, about which you can discover more on ye olde Interwebs: http://www.buckandevans.com/

Chris visited us back in August 2018 where we made this video: https://youtu.be/T-hKSOz-VBw and in this visit he returns to update his pedalboard with a full G2-based system. Dan and Chris discuss the layout and other requirements before cracking on with the build. We then plug it in and have a good listen… of course.

Massive thanks to Chris for his time and always-excellent hangs!

•Note about Riff City GuitarIt was with a heavy heart that Dan and I heard that Riff City was closing as of July 2019. This video was shot and edited before that which doesn’t really matter… what does matter is that we want to thank Joe and everyone there for their support and friendship over the first years of TPS. We wish everyone involved with Riff City the vey best for the future – for absolutely sure when one door closes another one inevitably opens. Our very best to you Joe and team!

The main focus of the Q&A will be the main show that went out on the preceding Friday, but we'll answer other stuff too.

 

Here's the link to the main show being discussed – it was a video about impedance, resistance, capacitance and a bunch of other nerdy electronics stuff with our wonderful friend, Simon Jarrett of Kingsley Amps & Pedals: https://youtu.be/pmUq8uK_AL8

Nerd warning! This show is probably not for first-time viewers, nor anyone looking for quick and simple answers. This stuff is deep, fundamental… and yet all grounded (pun entirely intended) in basic electronics!

We are delighted to once again welcome Simon Jarrett to the studio. Simon is the man behind Kingsley Amplifiers (and pedals), based in Maple Ridge, Canada. Dan and I have been consistently blown away with Kingsley’s range of pedals and preamps, partly because of their meticulous design and build quality and partly because they are imbued with Simon’s own personal musical connection with tremendous guitar tone. We attempt to unravel some of that in this show, talking about guitar electronics basics such as input impedance, capacitance in guitar controls (low pass filter) and amp/pedal input stages (coupling capacitor/high pass filter), gain stage biasing and all those interrelated factors that have a fundamental effect on your guitar sound… long before you get into to worrying about which of the 487 Tube Screamer clones to buy. It will be well over the heads of anyone looking for quick fixes or simple answers and advice… but absolutely fascinating for anyone who has been playing and tweaking for years and not quite connecting the dots of what’s actually happening (like me, Mick here). Massive thanks to Simon and his wife Christine for taking time out of their vacation to spend time nerding at That Pedal Show.

Enjoy the episode. If you dare!

This segment is where we answer your questions and comments – hopefully every Monday.

The main focus of the Q&A will be the main show that went out on the preceding Friday, but we'll answer other stuff too.

 

Here's the link to the main show being discussed – it was a video about mic’ing amps with different mics in different locations. https://youtu.be/sePQePcP8Ho

 

We also talk about a video with Pete Thorn about his Suhr PT15 I.R. amp: https://youtu.be/lzp_SnpA6Lo

 

We hope you enjoy this video. Please subscribe to our channel.
