⚠️ Everyone Needs These Guitar Pedals! 

You put a chorus pedal? That’s the worst option you could of put on. Even an EQ pedal is a better option than a chorus.

3th song name?

@@gabe4u22 why not both?

I'd replace Fuzz to Distortion

@@gabe4u22 さささしささささなし

I think it is doing a slight pitch sharp and flat of what you play.

@@mikebastiat not exactly! it does that while also maintaining the dry signal creating a "choral" effect like having two guitars veeery slightly out of tune with each other. a vibrato pedal would modulate the pitch up and down but without the dry signal :)

Especially in stereo

That’s why it’s the first pedal I bought

​@@psychakilla like me

Keep up with the times grandpa

Mate, I ate fufu around 50 years ago for the first time, and I assume it's still the same eh? Really good, traditional fufu with a great sauce, yeah? Grandma's recepie, yeah?

@@adrianguggisberg3656 Sorry sir, I had no idea Chief. Upmost respect to my elders

Don't worry mate, pedals are great, I just stick to my old stuff, as you will to yours once you are my age. Pedals are grandpa tech too, tho. If you want to keep up with times, you need a Kemper or Helix 😎🤘🎸

Amen!You're not alone!After trying them all,The only effect I use is delay.Straight into a Marshall for me!(w-delay,shorter tail)

As much as I dig Fuzz for the funk, blues, classic rock, soul, etc I play... I primarily play in very heavy bands and Fuzz absolutely will NOT cut it lol! I play stuff like Pig Destroyer, Dragged Into Sunlight, NAILS, Wormrot, Converge, etc... I run a TC Electronics Dark Matter distortion pedal to shape my distortion's sound/tone then an Ibanez Tube Screamer Mini to clean up the Dark Matter and give it a CRUSHING boost! It's a great combo of pedals to get a gruesome, ballsy, sludgy, doomy tone but individual notes and leads still come thru crystal clear

@@phatnana2379 Isn't fuzz not supposed to be heavier than distortion? I always thought it was strange how modern metal doesn't use much fuzz even though it sounds a lot harsher. I guess maybe that because people stack distortion pedals to get *that* sound.

@@midnightstorm4290 Fuzz lacks chug... Like it can sound harsh but it doesn't have the rumble like distortion. It also doesn't have the clarity

@@midnightstorm4290 fuzz has no clarity, bite, precision, or tight bottom end whatsoever compared to distortion. It's virtually unusable in extreme metal generally speaking.

Yes, a 100% swap of fuzz in favor of distortion. Way more usable across the general spectrum. You can basically do a poor man's fuzz using heavy distortion & the neck pickup w/ tone rolled off anyway.

Bro. Thank you for this. I think you’re right. I’m gonna look for a loop pedal first.

@@prettygneissproductionsthat’s what I did awesome choice

Hey man what should I do if I want to do the same thing with a digital keyboard? Are there piano pedals?

@@encore4962 any loop pedal should accept a 1/4” as well as some of them having XLR, 1/8”, and/or MIDI inputs. As long as it can be plugged into a mixing board, any loop pedal should accept any instrument with the appropriate cable necessary.

That depends on how you want to look at it? Looper pedals are great, especially one that has a drum machine, but if you're trying to emulate a specific tone and you're experimenting, I'd recommend an affordable multi fx unit. In todays market, I'd say the best for a beginner would be something like a NuX MG300 or Hotone Ampero mini. They're affordability priced, have all effects, AND a looper and drum machine.

I was like, "I've definitely heard that song before" and you helped me clarify it was UFO

@eduard_reviews_stuff too hot to handle (1st song)

That's because it's too hot to handle .

what’s the third and fourth song names?

My favorite UFO tune is PUSHED TO THE LIMIT!!!!!

Same, got the amp for my 18th birthday as a present

@@agcacustoms2852 Do you have it plugged into your computer? Once you can access all the stuff you can only do through computer, the amp just goes to another level. You can almost get any tone you want out of it. When I first got mine I have to say I wasn't too impressed. But as soon as I plugged it into my computer, it changed everthing. The tone I can get is almost kind of as good as a tube amp. With a bit of tweaking with the parametric EQ and the global EQ, you can get some awsome metal tones out of it. It chugs better than I thought it would by itself without putting a nice distortion pedal in front of it. The only issue I have, and thus would go for any digital amp. You get what is called digital artifacts. It's a sound that only digital amps make. It's the reason alot of people don't like digital amps. I like it alot though. Recording straight from the usb sounds amazing. Just plug into your computer, download the DAW, (Digital Audio Work Station) Reaper and record your own guitar tracks for free. It's super easy to use if you haven't already.

@@chriswalton3383 unfortunately I haven’t been up to that level since I couldn’t figure out how to connect it and my computer wouldn’t even work at the time. I hope to connect it and get all of those pedals and effects sooner than later, but for the moment I just use a multi-effects pedal I got before the amp.

Heard about the Katana recently, looks really cool. And a LOT cheaper than I thought it would be.

I have a katana as well, absolutely worth it

Just picked up a modified CS-3. Absolutely love it, just what my pedalboard needed

I agree

I was gonna say it

It’s essential for tapping, percussive playing, legato and a lot more especially with single coils

An equalizer too🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

My bass player is always going wild on those bad boys

@@danorott they are just so much fun 🤣 I've lowered my new Gibson into a lowerd C standard tuning! It's like it's been given a whole new "grunt" (especially with the wah peddle)😎

without wah there will be no fun lol

Yeah I got one. It’s not one of my most used but I use it on occasion

I have one but I’m not entirely sure how to use it

What does it do?

It helps shape the sound in terms of volume. It's commonly used to even out the volume of unevenly played notes, or to enhance the attack of each particular note

@@GalaxyDinoPlayzjojobestshowlol sometimes, some pedals have a higher natural gain than other pedals, and a compressor can help even out the level of your board when turning off and on different pedals during a gig. Hope this helps!!

A GOOD compressor Theres so many out there that are too hard for beginners to hear what they do Keeley is king

I got Reverb running at all times too. Too many people think Reverb is only for being super noticable for a spacey/trippy effect! It's my opinion that just a TOUCH of Reverb (Delay could be used to the same effect too) adds a little something to my dry tones (clean or distorted). You wouldn't think there was ANY Reverb while I'm playing but if I turn it off, you hear the difference

@@phatnana2379 exactly! Your right I tried using some delay but I just found the control of reverb is much easier to hone in. I use a delay but in a more abrupt sort of way than just filling those empty spaces in my dry tone.

I like how they chose like, the crappiest verb pedal in 2022 now hahaa

More than a lot of the pros use..

Some kind of delay/echo.

Get an eq pedal.

I'd add distortion and then, it would be perfect

​@@wildesage4172does it really worth a battery? I mean, if you practice or record, you should use dry sound; and if you play on stage, the environment will provide the natural reverb, but the pedal will steal the clarity in the mix

Yeah that's what we were going for!

Or a tuner or compression they are real godsends

Not really. Digital art be it music or drawing is equally valid. You still need the ear for music and the passion to work on it

Nah not at all! I pretty much exclusivly use amp sims, whereas a lot of the other guys in the shop use amps and pedals. So long as you're having fun, who cares!

Well, to be fair, there’s also aspects like going up on stage, where you’d need pedals

Different processes altogether.

FL plugins sound like ass cheeks tho

Good shout!

Ehh idk about that chorus is amazing. Id swap the fuzz out first, there’s already distortion and you can create a fuzz effect with contour/gain/bass settings if you have a have decent amp

I'm swap the chorus for a flanger. Flanger used as a chorus sounds better than the best chorus.

@@lonewanderer958 Yeah DS2 sounds cooler than a fuzz when maxed in my opinion.

@@lonewanderer958 nahh tremolo is the sexist effect there is

🤓

Do you know what the 4th song was, Reverb?

I've never used a pedal, but looks like it has a spot for input and output so you maybe can just string them together with cables

You can certainly use multiple effects at the same time! Just look up 'pedalboards' on google! It'll show what usually works.. The order of the effects changes the sound too so that something to consider and play with!

That's another great way to do it! The Helix/Kemper/Quad Cortex are some great pedals!

If u haven't heard the eventide rose delay check it out and you'll throw rocks at that boss.

@@dar6095 I'll definitely look into it! I love delay with my overdrive for an "Epic" sound, so delay is always really important to the way I play

Try analog and digital delays, they're very different in sound and give you so much to play with 😀👍

@@claudevieaul1465 Most definitely! I've had the opportunity to play on nice gear other people owned, so I definitely know how different tones can be so fun to play around with. I remember the first time I heard someone play a tube amp, and I loved it so much I went on a mission to get one, and I finally got a really nice 90s Fender Red Knob, and it's so clean sounding. My next goal is to get some nice effects pedals and boxes for it. I have a few looper pedals that are pretty fun to play around with
