His charisma is otherworldly. I don’t know if it’s the accent or the way he chooses his words, but I definitely want pedals now.

It's easy to sell something that you genuinely love to mess around with. He's having so much fun. It's contagious.

Watching your videos has rekindled my love for guitar. It's been years since I've played and I no longer even own one. After watching your videos, I've been inspired to go out and buy everything once again and dive back into playing.

Your videos are always informative and entertaining! I just subbed.

The BD-2 was the first pedal I ever bought. I basically watched a ton of videos and then just went to a shop and tried a bunch, that one was just the one I liked the sound of the most. Love that pedal.

Absolutely outstanding video all round!

What a brilliant video, just what I was looking for.

Awesome video man thanks !

Really fun video. Thank you!

Great video, thanks for posting!

Another invaluabe vid from Dagan, great advice and recommendations that save me hours of research.

Just an ordinary guy who explains and plays guitar really well

Love you guy's videos!

Finally I found info on what a beginner should be looking at for a starter board and how they work. And my amp has many of these effects so this gives me some ideas of how to use it better.

Very impressed with this guy, great at what he does, one of the better tubers out there in the guitar world, he explains everything so one can understand it, he's not there trying to impress or show off and talk above peoples heads.

The old hair was the best brotherman. Love your reviews ,happy new year from the convict island mate.

Man this is so awesome. Thank you so much.

Great reviews mate!

This is such a great video. I had a school band in the 80s with no pedals and just a cheap guitar. I recently got back into it and have a Boss Overdrive with a Cry Baby Wah. I do have a few effects on my litle Marshall practice amp but the reverb is something I really want next and also the phaser as my inbuilt one is not so hot. Great demo - cheers.

Great video, I like this Phaser pedal though I got the MXR EVH phase 90 2 days ago, I like all the pedals you did. Even the Blues Driver

I just love that sg!

Cool helpful video! Thanks!

Dagan should have his own tv channel. Natural presenter with great humour. BBC/ITV/SKY watch out

This is soo much fun talking about pedals. I've used so many over the years. All of the ones you're using are great. I've played most of them so far. I'm using a Boss Turbo Overdrive instead of the BluesDriver. I bought all my pedals as they became avilable years ago when the dinosaurs were still playing. I remember my Uncles telling me Music was better when they were playing. I started in the Van Halen Era. I'm a dinosaur too I guess.

Thanks man, helped a lot! :)

Diffently, a Wah Wah! So far every pedal you've mentioned is totally cool. My very first pedal was a MXR Phase 45. Of course I stepped up to the 90. Don't have either pedal now but it is in my next purchase. Been thinking about going with the mini MXR.

I've been playing for 25 years and at this point I get so caught up in having that "next great pedal." But realistically, this is all you need to make some great tones. That was a really fun vid. Thanks!

Cool Jam 😎 Nice demo

Really useful for a beginner. Thank you 🙌

That SG and Vox sound really good together, I never considered that combo.

I love the Tele on the end sunburst , bound white pickguard !

This video is so helpful

Pretty spot on. I like a compressor, boost, overdrive, 2nd overdrive, delay long, and delay slap into Fender Deluxe Reverb using Les Paul with coil splitting, but agree with your witty reasoning and repartee! Keep up the good work young man!

@SaxJockey

I think it was a good summary too. I have tried other pedals but never bonded with some (chorus, flanger). My essentials are LP into a Treble Boost > Tuner > Compressor > Overdrive > Delay > Amp (Fender Reverb). Have a few of the others in there, but normally on bypass (Phaser/Fuzz/Wah/EQ).

This is a pedal passion list. What is it? What does it do? Why do you need it? + some heart spilled in

Good practical advice for all here.

Glad to see Boss get some love. With so many boutique pedals on the market some people scoff at the idea of having a 50 dollar Boss overdrive on their board not knowing the very pedal they love and paid 200 bucks for is likely just a mod for a Boss pedal. Looking at you JHS.

Nice vid mate! I agree with your choices.... but might would have included a nice chorus pedal as well. Many players seen to try to expect pedals to play for them.... there is no substitute for actual talent and technique.

i think this is excellent advice and i would like to add some auxiliary information. i ended up playing a lot of afternoon, outdoor gigs, with 10 minute band-change times. more pedals just equals more pain in the bum, in such a situation. like many of the other commentors, i advise getting an amp with built-in reverb, clean, dirty and dirty-volume-boost facilities (i wish they would also include volume boost on the clean channel, but i have never seen that). way less pedals, for a practical situation. one of the worst problems in daytime outdoors is ya can't see the active light, on most pedals. often, pedals crackle, hiss or even shut down your signal chain. always ram your quarter inch plugs in and out of the jacks on your pedals (kinda like intercourse) to clean off the connection-corrosion which causes this. from the perspective of listening to bands, i find that when people just click on a wah pedal, then leave it alone, they get the coolest, throaty, filtered sound on lead passages. if you are going to use a delay pedal, get someone in the audience to record your sound. i have heard so many guitar signals, smeared to the point of unrecognizability by poorly-set delay pedal controls. this could also go the "fun" effects (like phaser, chorus or flanger). you may find, in a live situation, that they actually detract from a good, solid, present guitar sound.

Wah you say? Lol. Yes I make faces when using my wah pedal. My cat looks at me while I'm doing it and is trying to figure out if the sounds are coming from my mouth 😆

I love Bd2. Great price great look great sound ! Just amazing ! It can sound like an amp an OD or like a fuzz with an overdriven amp.

For me it's simple, tube screamer, chorus, loop, noise gate and whammy.

If we are talking essentials, I think every aspiring guitar player should invest in a proper tuner before anything else, but this was a very nice demonstration. I liked your choices of pedals here. My first pedal was a TU-3 and my second was a BD-2. Been having them for about 15 years now and they still work perfectly. I loved the Phase 90's tone at 14:05. It sounded just like JPJ's piano during Zeppelin's live performance of "No Quarter" at the Celebration Day concert. It's a nice choice for those soft piano tones. I already have so many ideas from watching this. Thanks so much

I can agree with most of this. I wind up using reverb instead of delay for some reason, most of the time, but delay is a very good effect.

What’s wrong with reverb on my amps and or through the Spark amp online settings ?

People seem to get very snobby about Boss pedals but I find them consistently great. No matter how much I spend on boutique crap I always seem to come back to Boss (except for wahs)

Dagen Rocks!!! I started out in high school with a les Paul copy, Fender deluxe reverb, big muff and small stone. After forty years of experimenting, I ended up with a Strat, Epiphone Sg standard (2020), 5w tube amp and pedal board. The pedal board consists of an ac tone modeler, reverb, blues driver, cry baby and tuner. I am in the market for a delay pedal. When I saw this video, I immediately thought “great minds”. Just wish I had Dugens energy. 😎

I’m a paraplegic so can’t exactly use my foot on a wah so is there another one that might work for me ?

10:26 What was that riff, please?

Thinking Dunlop wah, DD-7 delay, big muff fuzz, ISP decimator noise suppressor and ditto looper. My Blackstar 40 MkII amp has massive gain & overdrive, plate and spring reverb, and American and British voicing.

I went through several overdrive or distortion pedals when I started piecing my board together before I realized you can’t beat a tube amp overdrive tone. Currently I just run my Mesa Boogie mini Rec and I have a boost pedal if I want it to get real nasty

I think noise gate pedal can be quite essential as well

I use EH for reverb, Beringer for Fuzz,all rest are boss delay DD3, Tremolo,Chorus,Flanger,Blues Driver,Looper.

Very enjoyable.
