Every since I watched you demo bucket of blood octave fuzz, I searched for it every day until it finally reached my door this Monday it's the first pedal in my chain
I've been using Boss pedals since 1985. They've always delivered the mojo. I've never had one fail on me. They are built like tanks, like Tonka trucks. Don't waste your time with ultra pricy boutique pedals. A Boss will do.
I think I need a silverfish for my p90 guitar. Epic playing and a pleasure to see you in dortmund this month, ben! Would this stack well with a Jam rattler infront (instead of BD2?)
Really interesting how you use the guitar's controls for each pickup to master your tone. Coincidentally, I just bought a Boss Blues Driver to replace some wilder overdrives, so your video is incredibly helpful. Rock!
I don't want to sound like Dimebag Darrell when I plug in.That seems like what most stomp boxes offer. I'm looking for something between Clapton and Santana and I think you've helped me find it. Thank you, Ben
I've still got my Blues Driver, still use it, still love it. But honestly, try the DOD/Shoe Looking Glass. For me (and I almost hate to admit it, as I like the BD-2 so much) it does the same kinda thing, in a slightly different way, but sounds even more amp-like/natural.
Well done Ben, I stayed till the end. Also what a great band you have. 4real mon. Saw you in Austin. You all really inspired me to get playing again. Thank you
Great Demo, I've been looking at this Amp for a while now, wondering if I should get this one or the 50 watt version. I play mostly Rockabilly and Country style, throw in a little blues rock now and again. I was thinking that the 50 watt version would be enough, but now I might be better off with the 100 to get more head room. I don't want to play real loud but I'm worried that the 50 would break up a little too soon. I'm not sure what i want. Maybe the 100 would be the safe bet, because you can always lower volume and use pedals for overdrive or distortion at lower volume. Any thoughts? Great playing and I would say the best demo of this amp, Thanks!
I have the combo version of Milkman The Amp 50 - I feel that the mid bump is noticeable both on the DI signal as well as the amp's speaker. This approach to EQ is the best way to approximate a clean Fender sound - super helpful video.

That wee Pignose was sweet!. You have to get yourself a Moviola URS if you're into tiny monstrous amps, the Ediquip 1027A is incredible too. They where used for synchronizing sound onto film way back in the day, Black Sabbath used them in the studio so you know they're legit!.
I like the EHX Glove - it does everything but I still have a Boss Blues Driver and I go back and forth between a Caline Pure Sky and the Blues Driver. Between those three pedals I get it all.
I like the " psychedelic" effect of a late stage Drive for certain things, and the way I dealt with this is to have a Tape style delay pre Drive; at one stage, I had a second ( spring) reverb up front as well, but the board was getting stupid crazy.If you like Spring reverb, the Grail is classic, though I have to say that I preferred both the Topanga and True Spring.Recently, I acquired a Surfybear Compact, which is big footprint, - but also unbeatable. Because I use two small boards instead of one big one, I move the Wah and Volume pedal from front to middle as desired. People sometimes like to claim that one pedal is similar to another , and that may be true by itself, but it's more really how the different effects interact, - and that's where specifics matter. If you want to push mids, I'd go with a Germanium Treble Booster before a TS circuit every time.
Ben, got my friends to go see y'all out in baton rouge. Third time seeing y'all and may have been my favorite. Y'all fuckin ripped. My friend is also a guitarist (as am I) and we kept just giving each other side eye because of how absolutely fuckin sick you are and how effortless you make it look.
So tasty . Ben has become one of fave guitarists . Got the beautiful delicacy of Open Passageways and Mellowing stuff one minute then thundering away on Enemy of my Enemy . Saw them in Forth Worth on holiday. Great concert Just hope they come to Australia sometime soon .
Ben, you are true gem. Not only great musician but also huge inspiration in riffcrafting ;) i wish best for you and band, fingers crossed for new drummer.
Greetings from Australia. Working out the guitar for Marriage of Coyote Dm but would like to add the harp parts- any idea what key harp Micky Raphael used on it ? Tulips Fort Worth was awesome btw !
