Bro….you’re one of the most articulate persons demoing gear….perfect descriptions…

Underated channel. This is my new favorite gear channel. Keep up the good work!

Thanks for the video! I've picked up the Dirty Shirley after watching this a ways back and it's still my favorite pedal on the board!

This helps a lot. Thanks Bud !Nicely done demo

your channel is so good and helpful. criminally underrated. 👍

You need more views and subscribers. Your demos are awesome.

Sounded incredible at the end at the gig!

Nice demo and explanation. Well done!

I love the tone onn the BE OD when it has the tight knob max

Cool playing man! Great tone!~

Great demo!

This comparison was KICK ASS! Thanks! Greetings from Hollywood California!

At 6:45 you started playing what sounded like the end of Toxic Garbage Island by Gojira, albeit with a different tuning. For this, I thank you. Your channel/reviews/playing are all great. Keep it up.

Yes you're right. That was a bit of Gojira in there, just not in the actual tuning. Thank you for your comment! Means a lot.

You are a great guitar player! Nice demo

YES! I have them both. By far my favorite Overdrives, and I have quite a few expensive OD pedals. FYI you need to get the volumes well over 50% to get the best out of the pedals.

great video, thanks.

your band sounds awesome! great tone on your guitar playing

Both awesome pedals, BE-OD sounds better to me, but the mid boost for the DS works well and it can get very nice lead tones. Really amazing pedals both of them, I think critisizing either is really nitpicking..

Gorgeous Guitar. Love the wood-grain top. Very Unique looking. I prefer the Dirty Shirley. More note definition. Nice Demo brother. oNe LovE from NYC.

I think that they both sound great just a little different. I would love to see a comparison between these and the Revv pedals.

Well done.

Love the vid! I think I'll be keeping my be-od despite the dirty Shirley being also great... Just not enough gain. I'm looking for an absolute monster of a gain pedal and it does it. I haven't had a pro Lem hearing aids either, but I do sometimes use an EQ/boost!

Agreed. The BE has much more gain and is way more bad ass. I was going to get a DS but fuck that I want that gnarly heavy gain of the BE. And I love the name 😂

There is actually an internal gain pot in the DS and you can get it to be as gainy as the BE

best comparison video I've seen for any pedals, cause you play ACTUAL CHORDS, not just solo show off stuff, which doesn't demonstrate tone and texture. the be-od is more aggressive, brutal and forceful. the dirty shirley doesn't have that brutal backbone the be-od has. that said, the shirley sounds more versatile, and still gets great tone. ALSO the be-od sounds like a real metal pedal, meaning it wouldn't be used low gain. the shirley sounds like it would still sound good with lower levels of gain. so one is really just for heavy music (the be-od), and one is for everything else (dirty shirley). though I think the shirley would work in heavy music, as someone else said, the levels of gain they are different by aren't really usable anyway, especially for recording

I think the BE OD is more hunbucker sound.. I like..nice playing

for me I 'm prefere BE-OD REALLY MORE SMOTH & HARD CORE great tone

superb demo i prefered the dirty shirley somehow it sounded more amp like and why would anyone buy the beod and keep lowering the trim pot and stack it with an equalizer to boost mids just buy the ds , it s a plug and play pedal

Great video!!! I own both pedals and love them, great tools. I also own the THR 100H and I would like to know the settings you used for this video. Sounds awesome, with a great bottom end. It looks like you are using the solid preamp model? I have never tried that model to use it as a pedal platform... normally I use the clean channel... Thanks!!!

Juan Fernández So sorry man, I cant remember the settings..!! I tend to just play by ear with this amp...i just listen and tweak as i go... The "Clean" mode tends to break up like a traditional tube amp would; the "Solid" mode wont do that and has more headroom, perfect to demo these pedals...

🔴🌎🐸 The beO sounds better than I've heard in other comparisons.. I don't think you could wrong between the two. It seems that you can get some of the same results. Great guitar chord playing I could almost choose the beO on this one but when I take into account of everything else I've heard I chose and just purchased the the dirty as I like the crisp crunch and the bOd has a tad of mush. I looked for that here though it's not apparent . I would have liked to hear the sustain and would have liked to have seen the knobs adjusted the same. A difficult thing to do alone and play that good. Overall he did a great impressive demo of which showed to us it's really mostly all about the player his method of striking the strings and cords and projection of tones, though the pedals seem to be bad ass that's a given and that Shirley helps..

Thx for the gojira riff with the shirley...not much metal video the shirley to see what it can give in term of distortion

People really underestimate the Dirty Shirley. It can do the heavy stuff as well, not just the medium gain tones.

Wow that gig sounded AMAZING. Is that still going through the Yamaha THR100? I'm having trouble making pedals sound goood through the amp. What settings do you use on the THR100 to get pedals to work nicely with it?

Which one would you recommend to make a Fender Hot Rod Deluxe more versatile? Thanks

10:35 finally starts to turns the mids up on the DS.... 10:50 eyes roll and say, mamma mia : )~

Gain on - o - is the best

FRIEDMAN BE-OD vs MXR Super Badass Distortion ?

Wow that solo at the end sounds huge. Is that just the pedal into a clean amp or are you pushing a dirty channel? Also do you remember your settings? That thing sounds incredible. Nice review.

Dirty Shirley plus an EQ boost (to jump out further in the mix during my solos) and some delay from the Boss MS-3. Going into a clean amp, the Yamaha THR100H. I roughly have the knobs at these settings: Bass - 11:30, Treble 9:30, Presence 12:00, Volume 1:00, Mids 9:30, Gain 11:30 (internal gain trim pot set to max).

Definitely check it out at your closest store. The Friedman Distortion Pedals work pretty darn well with almost any setup. Their pedals truly aim to provide you with the tone of the BE-OD/DirtyShirley....

If I use this pedal is it necessary to add overdrive behind it like a boosting amp to get a metal tone? What do you think?

For play songs like guns n process which one is good ? be od or dirty?

Very nice and helpful video. It sounds like, from what you mentioned, that the BE-OD having more internal trim Pot adjustment possible in this demo, that it would be capable of higher gain than the Dirty Shirley. Would that be accurate? Thanks. Phil NYC / Jersey Shore Area

Hi, there. I think the DS is less high gain so the BE is better for metal, although in a lot of what you played sounded more clear with the DS especially single note runs. Anyway, great demo. I just can't play metal. I'm too slow more of a Bad Company Free guy so I like the DS better.

I sold my BE-OD. I think Tight is not needed but a Mid control is...

@MusicBlissMalaysiaTV

One thing I personally did with the BE-OD when using it live was to stack it with a "TS' type pedal...just so I can get the mid hump from it. Since I was stacking, I trimmed down the gain with the internal pot. That helped to cut through a dense mix....

@FretFriendGWaL

Tight knob is not needed. It's why I prefer the Shirley as you get a Middle knob instead :)

@LCRLive687

4 жыл бұрын

You need a tight knob, and badly. Especially if you are plaing metal. And the lower you tune, the more tight roll off you need while not cutting the lows coming through the amp, only cutting the lows going to the distortion. I.e. - amp still lets lows through without distorting them. And the ability to roll that back to get the flubbiness if one really wants too.

I think if you need any more gain than the dirty shirley can offer, you need to try get used to playing with less gain. The top players use alot less gain than people think, and it's more their accuracy that is making people think they need to turn up the gain

plus as the guy that owns wampler pedals explains, less gain is better for recording as well, brings out clarity more. fun to jam with, but doesn't record well, all the super gain

BE-OD Deluxe

The best Overdrive Pedal is Baldringer DualDrive. This ohne Beats the Friedman Pedals and These two are really good.

I have them both and they are amazing, yet different beasts. Dirty shirley makes me work harder. I have to really hit the strings to get the balls of its sister. The BE-OD plays be itself. Easy to get those staccato riffs (and pairs very, very well with delay for melodic solos). One is smoother and one is grainier. In terms of feel I would say the BE-OD=80's metal and Dirty Shirley=heavy metal. Great channel !!
