If Ribot was on this show I would absolutely die. Please make it happen. Amazing solo career and Tom’s ultimate sideman.

Hey Mick, you mentioned a Cornish overdrive in this VCQ. You already have one sent to you effectively from us at DevTech Audio, called the ‘Skylight’. It is a Cornish SS-3 with additional clipping options. Sent to you some time last year. Check it out when you have some time. All the best, DevTech Audio (Sydney, Australia)

“The right people singing the right notes at the right time” Mick Taylor. An ongoing chapter in my life of playing in bands. Thank you, Mr.Taylor.

Couldn't catch the live. But since you mentioned Madison Cunningham early on...Saw her in Northampton Massachusetts on Friday. She was playing with Juana Molina - an artist I wasn't familiar with but by Madison's own words a huge influence on her. Great show. 800 seat theatre, could hear the clicks of the pedals and tap of the feet during the quiet bits. Madison had 2 acoustics and her JM with a properly loud amp on stage. They would play together, then 3 songs solo - repeat. Finished with a jam and Juana riffing on 3 words provided by the audience.

I have Bigsbys on three of my guitars, a Casino, a Gretsch, and a Les Paul. I have no problems with any of them. They play perfectly, they stay in tune, and the Bigsby works fine. Using a Reverend 1” soft spring helps a lot, I’ve found. Beyond that, wind your strings properly at the peg head, lube your nut, and it should be fine, unless you’re using it for dive bombing, which it was never designed for.

The hotel Cali clause vamping was epic 😂😂😂😂

the fantastic pedal show with electric guitars without pedals or amps .. metaphorical .. much love for you friends you always make my life happy and interesting .. a hug from the Dominican Republic Santo Domingo

Glad I bought my tickets for the Cavern at the weekend. Must of been one of the last ones.

I love Dan turning up his unplugged guitar. :) Habits!

I love the show guys! For this Q&A episode I think it'd be cool to see you guys answering questions in some nice cushiony reclining chairs while pizza is being delivered to you mid-show.(Assuming you like Pizza) You deserve it! Cheers from Massachusetts!

You have to go there... Then you may or may not come back. So far, due to cable shortages I have never been able to muster more than five nodes at once. Someday, I will hook up all thirteen amplifiers: The Cerberus, one Brotary, one Leslie Simulator, the Vibrochorus, and a Stereo Echo. The neighbors may complain, idk 🤷‍♂

I got a butter machine after your SD9 show. Amazing. Been running it and an ODR-C from Nordland at 18volts as my two drive options.

The Marc Ribot love made me very very happy. One of the very very best players.

Fight the good fight is a good shirt idea. Anyway, I am trying to fight the good fight. Love the videos and VCQ as always. Looking forward to the Robben Ford video.

That question about what songs make you remember why you do what you do was great! For me sadly it's the whole Dead Man soundtrack by Neil Young. Or Being Again by Ariel Posen, which I only know of because of TPS. Thanks again Tootsie Tips (leg ends)

Your thoughts about stage volume…thank you. I’m not alone. ❤

The new Walrus Audio Monumental will be nice for wet/dry/wet rigs. Because you it's a stereo analogue opto tremelo (with blendable amplitude & harmonic). And the pan feature is super cool way of adding controllable movement. I never understood why there weren't more stereo analogue tremelos. Because often the tremelo is last in the pedal chain, and plenty of times run with high-depth / very wet. So, I don't love having that tremelo being a digital pedal.

I’ve had my eye on the monumental. I need a stereo tremolo that also does harmonic trem. So far the Flint is my favorite harmonic trem. How does the monumental compare?

Parallel vs Series options are a necessary option to always have available. I have designed them into guitar pickups and are essential to rig systems.

Hello Dan & Mick… Can’t wait to see y’all again in Leicester. In the mean time here’s a thought for future guests in relation to the younger demographic…Imagine meeting someone 13yrs old, who thought one day during COVID lockdown, I’ll try that guitar contraption (with no family background in music) only to discover they’re really flippin good at it. Then at 17 being on stages with all kinds of famous players and some musical royalty. Imagine if you could get some young talent like that on the show. Can I suggest you keep your eyes and ears open to such a concept. Such talent is typically looking for all kinds of exposure and it would be fascinating to get young perspectives on tone, volume and life on the road. May I suggest keeping an eye on a character like Grace Bowers for starters. I’m sure she’ll make it over the pond in the not too distant future. Young characters with a mature head on them would offer such a fresh perspective. If you ask enough youthful players I hope one or two would bite. 🙂

I've got a factory bigsby '64 335 - it works absolutely perfectly, and I think is definitely better with it than without.... I've also got an old gold Bigsby I'm thinking of selling if you do want one... Mid 60's, good nick. It was expensive though, I imported it from the US.

I saw where you had to cut the twin guitar solo out at the end. When I watched part of it on the live stream, I was gladly impressed.

Hahahah! There is that! I often wonder what Mr Henley thinks about on quiet evenings in. :0)

For me, If what is captured is "far" from what is heard live, the music has been done a great disservice. "Stand and deliver!" NOT "Sit ad manipulate". Also, so-called "metal" has become that every player is presented percussively which is only one valid element of musicality. I am much more attracted to a variety of flavorful elements to savor. That's undoubtably why only the more "ballad" sounding "metal" tunes are palatable for me.

Let's reunite Liam and Noel on The Pedal Show..To launch the Great Comeback of Oasis !!! Cheers fellas !!!

I never use a "cranked" amp because it limits usability. I try to size an amp to the venue and then set it for greatest headroom and clarity as a basis for additional OD and other effects pedals. I control volume with both a volume pedal and the option of a boost (either via a boost and/ or EQ pedal). I control "OD" via pedal stacking. I set up my rig system to maximize artistic (hopefully) dynamic control.

1.45.00 And as for those of us who can't tell a Dumble from a Katana 50 - THANK GOD!

Had to smile at Mick brandishing the Soundtank version of the Tube Screamer. I still have mine on my main board and it has been there since I was 19 many, many decades ago. I have owned, and still own, a few other TS's in much sturdier cases that cost a lot more money but I still prefer the sound of my old "cheap" Soundtank one. Its held together by gaffa tape these days but I don't feel the need to replace it.

Yes! This! Woohoo!

BIG thanks for your thoughts and suggestions on tone control and Fuzz. As a result I'm ruminating over stacking some drive/boost/fuzz/distortion pedals. Sometimes the line between all of these can be very thin and even overlap. The Thorpy Warthog is a great suggestion. But I, like so many with this tone chasing affliction, love it all! Picking 4 pedals to stack is the challange before me. Currently I have the LST Bossy Gnome, Ceriatone Centura, FTT Crunchy Chime Boost and thinking of adding a Fairfield Circuit Barbershop. What 4 would you pick, no restrictions or limits, top 4 pedals for individual and stacked drive/boost/fuzz/distortion tones? No multi-effects gizmos allowed.

Great show as usual. I Don't agree 100% with Mick comment on Anna Calvi. She's a great player and she has some great songs. What hurts her a bit is the way she tries to "imitate" PJ Harvey. I saw her live in 2015 and she was great. She's a Tele player and uses an old (i think mid 60s) Vox AC30

The consensus opinion on stereo guitar pickups seems to be negative. Stereo projection Is a wonderful concept but, best executed via "mono" guitar input. I enjoy hearing stereo effects through separated speakers as an addition to a wet/dry setup utilizing amps selected for their compatibility. Best of all all the time, is a "modest" minimum goal to continue chasing.

Can I ask, what is the name of color on your Telecaster? I like it a LOT!

Great show as always... late question - Can you listen to 'Just Like Paradise' without making a guitar face for the pinch harmonics? I still cant.

Lately I really enjoy low efficiency speakers. Idealy small magnets with low bass response. They make zero sense in A/B test, cause they are not loud and not much bass. What they allow you, is to run amp in its happier place with more lowend and all the without blowing your head off. Often they are not really lower volume, but lower percieved volume and less pressure, so FOH guys dont notice you beeing loud. Also I can use all the super nice, full frequency pedals without going too muddy and thus haveing ballsier sound (feeding amp with more low end). Very intereteresting world to discover. Very different from EVs, that will knock you from stage at that levels. Issue is, those are mostly vintage speakers, as anything less then 96dB is not made anymore.

Let us know how how tracking the 345 rattle works out. I’ve had few 60s guitars with a rattle. Equal parts maddening/fascinating how elusive finding the source can be

@lanceleslie5165

3 ай бұрын

A loose truss rod can also be a crazymaker. The rattle can be ghosting from multiple spots on the neck, or rattling through the body.

I contend that all players need to be heard at all times by each other and at every point in a room. Sound guys need to learn to EQ for separation by frequency range before volume. The band needs to own the sound (and the "guy") and suite it to the venue.

As for searching for the rattle in your guitar is it the truss rod rattling in the neck? I only say as ts happened to one of my guitars and it took me ages to find it

@ThatPedalShow

3 ай бұрын

Glyn, sorry we missed you. We did a video ages ago called VCPI. It's worth a watch - the acronym stands for Voltage, Current, Polarity and Isolation. You need to know the first three things so you can work out the minimum number of outlets and the total current draw (and of course the polarities of each pedal). After that, we always recommend going with a supply that has true isolation. There are a lot of good ones on the market - we always recommend TheGigRig first because they are the best and most adaptable. Dan makes them, just for clarity. After that, check out Cioks perhaps - lots of great stuff out there! But that true isolation is REALLY important. Good luck!

It's for a variety of reasons. First, when talking about GigRig products, I know he often doesn't like to blow his own trumpet, so to speak. So someone has to blow it for him. Second, often to jog his memory. But he's a big boy, we've been friends for many many years now. He can speak for me, and butt in when he likes. Between the two of us, the egos left long ago. But if you're noticing mine, it means that your own is on the rampage. Tread carefully.
