Carl Martin Plexitone demo, by Pete Thorn/ProGearDemos 

Mr. Thorn: thank you, your demos have become my "standard reviews" when it comes about pedal effects. I love your playing.

Notice that when he picks up the guitar...the sun magically comes out!

Monster sounds Pete. Kudos from a fellow Canadian!! Seriously, your gear demos and insights are really valuable. Cheers!

I've have this pedal and for the last 5 years I still haven't found anything better. Awesome pedal for Jimmy page type tone. I have a xotic Ep booster I place before it set at 9 o'clock just tone bliss

Pete you sold me on this pedal 6 years ago. I finally found a used one local. It was a steal! I'm running it in front of my Pod XT Live using the Bassman model. I got the clean to sound as close as I could to your demo kicked it on & wow, this thing sounds killer! It also sounds great with the VOX model they have. Thanks for the great info. Darrall

Very well done Pete. That pedal really has the vibe. Keep up the excellent demos!

Pete, thanks for demoing this pedal - after watching it I went out and picked it up and it does everything I hoped it would do through the clean channel of my Fender Blues Delux amp. This box just makes the Fender amp so versatile.

Can i just say That , that was the best Demo i have ever heard for any gear .PERIOD !!! cool looking room , great sound quality , great visuals , and very consise and to the point ,,No FAFFING around ,,,Well done mate .

all his demos always sound amazing. im sure he could make even the crappiest $20 pedal sound killer!

Great song at the end of the demo!!! i'm sold with that pedal!! great great playing mister Thorn! Cheers from France

Thanks For the Demo! Easily the best I have seen. I bought this pedal based on the demo!

6:00 your welcome(i was blown away) this is why i love this guy,he makes his gear sing because his talent shows no boundries

Best instruments demos on the web are by Pete always. Thanx for posting man.

Sounds incredible. That's the sound I've been looking for.

Dude, Pete... you're my friggin' hero. You're a huge inspiration. I hate to be "that guy," but I love all your demos. You really know how to apply all of the things in a demo that are on all of our minds. Thanks, man!

Mr. Thorn! Thank you! This is the first video where someone demonstrates the higher fret attack loss of pedals.

Amaaaaazing outro there man! Love your demos!

What a bad ass lineup of guitars!! Great demo, great pedal, great playing. If I had seen this, would've bought my plexitone sooner!

Love your demos. Keep 'em coming.

Best demo's out there mate, seriously!

Outstanding Playing,Demo,Guitars,Home,everything is perfect!

excellent as always!! been looking for a pedal for a while and this demo got me sold!

You kickass Pete! I don't even care how awsome that Carl Martin is, your skills on this just blew me away.

Incredible pedal, and great demo! Just placed an order for one. This is the third or fourth thing I've bought because of Pete. Keep em coming!

Yup, anything Mr. Thorn does is pure gold. Love it!

Ok, this is a must have pedal in your arsenal! Pete, you are fantastic!!! Love the VH!!!!!

Super demo, some of the best tones I have heard! Very helpful. thanks for the demo!

That's demo i was looking for. Thank u, sir!

when you played aint talkin bout love.......it was perfect to my ears! You do great gear reviews!!! have a Merry CHRISTmas Pete!

Pete, demo is great, as always with You, and this "EVH section" of it was so fun to watch :)

That maybe your best demo so far, great playing!

One of the best reviews ever.subscribing now!

Pete, you're one of the best players on youtube by far.. There's no question about it.. You can tell this guy is a true pro.. Great Demo

Greatest plexitone demo, seriously.. the best!

AARRHHH!! Pete! You are the best. I keep coming back to this demo. I am getting a Plexitone in a couple of days as you really have blown me away. I really look forward to try this out. Thanks again Pete for the help and inspiration and hope to meet you if you ever come and do some workshops/masterclasses in the UK. Charles :)

killer demo as always. bravo!

Staggeringly good demo and wicked playing as always - blew my socks off pal.

Great demo! Thanks to your demo I ended up getting one and I am super pleased!!! possibilities are endless...both as a tube screamer type boost or just an all around distortion pedal. I am really impressed. Actually sounds better than most amps out there!!!

fookin awesome, pete! you're the man! thx!

Yeah Pete Awesome dude. I really love you playing at the end on this one. Very inspiring! As always super nice and professional. Thanks man your the real deal.

Great demo. Much appreciated.

Wow, that pedal does kick out some great tones. Great video as always.

I don't know how you know when to put together a demo, but you literally just saved me the headache and money of buying multiple pedals.

Dare I say?...Perfect demo. The tone is perfect. The playing is spot on...as is the explaination of how it works. Also, the pedalboard is perfect. Everything you need is right there in a relatively small space. And it's so nicely laid out and clean. It even satisfies my pedalboard OCD. I may just have to purchase a Plexitone to replace my main overdrive (which is, ironically, an OCD). Very nice.

Great demo Pete! What a great tone and playing!

This dude is so cool and laid back honestly if i could have a 1/16th of his talent i would feel great Please keep up the youtube content pete I enjoy your playing a lot also a fellow canadian. we rock baby!

That's good stuff, man. Congrats!

Sweet tones dude and badass track at the end!

that sounds wicked great mids incredible tone with lots of clarity.

Love the tone and the playing

Great, informative, USEFUL demo. Thanks.

Holy moley, now that is a demo........ i nearly fell off my chair when you ripped into the end track. Excellent work.

that is a very believable brown sound. Pete you have amazing chops.

Incredible tones Pete!

Sounds awesome!

Hey Pete, thanks for the great demo. This made me finally order this after most demos I listened to did not give me a good true sound of the pedal. Mike

Great tone and demo Thanks!!

Pete, you are a great Player man. And the presentation is also more than well done =)

Great review, serious tone too! The never ending search for tone continues ; )

Hell yeah! Classic VH riffs through that plexi tone sound great!

Pete, your videos are like the Hustler channel for gear heads.

What a great sounding pedal, what a great sounding guitar, what a great sounding amp, what a great sounding mic, AMAZING!! Just fell in love with the SUHR STRAT... wooooow... Congratulations DUDE! you play really good and know how to use that toys!!!! (I need that pedal now too MrGreen)

Awesome song at the end. You rock!

I went out and bought a Plexitone when I watched this video. Incredible!

Awesome demo !!! Thank you

Great review and wicked playing!

Had to log in and just toss a comment; awsome review, superb playing! great video quality variations, everything. pretty much best youtube video I sen in a long while.

That is such a nice and organized pedal board x___x

Hey Pete! I was in the market for a pedal and as soon as I heard that you had one and raved about it on another website before this video, I bought one based just on that. I'll be sending you the bill by the way! :) Great demo and great playing as always!

OMG that's the most perfect EVH sound I've ever seen

This demo really made me happy. You see, I already HAVE a Carl Martin Plexitone and love it, but for some reason I´ve lately been thinking about buying a Blackstar HT Dual instead. The thing is that I find the HT Dual so fun to play on but when I really listen to the two pedals I find that the Plexitone sounds so much clearer and more true Marshall. A bit harder to master and more revealing but free from that bzzz-isch sound the Blackstar pedals and amps have. Your demo made it so obvious! :)

Great insight and thoughtful. Glad I came across your video. Of course, your playing is awesome as well.

this is how a gear demo should be made!a real player's demo...usefull info AND great,tasty playing!subscribing right now!:)

Sure, the pedal sounds great, but your playing made my morning. Cheers, Mr. Thorn.

Nice review dude, great sounding pedal!

Holy shit, you are a fuckin great guitarist man. Awesome feel while playing, and great demo too of course. Nice.

Great tune at the end man.

Awesome Pete... Cheers Lovin the CM gear

Sold!!! Seriously, amazing.

I've owned tons of OD pedals including Xotics, Wamplers and the new Bogners - Blue and Red. Bought this and immediately found the sound I've been searching for. What Pete said about the low end holding together is so true. It's tight without feeling compressed. Bright note separation without sounding overly jangley or shrill. Love this pedal. One limitation I found is it sounds better on EL34 or 6L6 type amps. My EL84 amps didn't play well with this. Seemed like it was crushing the front end.

finally a gear demo that makes me want to actually buy whats being shown

Excellent demo Pete. I just bought a PlexiTone on Ebay because of this. Gonna see what kind of magic I can do to my Twin with it. And maybe even try it on the plexi channel of my XTC Classic to see what I can do there to kick it up a notch. Your stuff is always great. KUDOS!!!

GEAR TOUR!!!! Pete you have to show off all those guitars one by one!!!

@jem7772 Hiya, the verb you speak of on the little evh section I added in Logic- just like the real deal, it's "studio reverb". But there's no reverb on any other part of the video. Also the Riot video is the same, what you hear is what you get on that one. You just gotta turn the knobs right and mic the amp correctly!

Pete should take all those ideas he wrote for this demo and make an album, I'll buy it! Great demo mine is on the way!!

Oh wow, and I just went out and bought the dam AMP. Great review, awesome sounds.

Awesome pedal! : ]

Nice Pete, I think this demo tune will have to make it onto Guitar Nerd for sure

Love the Van Halen examples! Now I want one!

great video . thanks for posting . awsume playing!!!

Great Demo...you sold me..

I dont know if its some sort of osmosis happening or what but I aleays play better after watching your videos Pete. So, thank you! :) Very much. I love your style and tones, its just so inspiring.

Smokin' pedal! Wow!

Good job!! Bravo!! Sounds great!!! Your a great guitar player!!!

This man is amazing.

@Prototype1023 aww thanks- I went to GIT and took private lessons on and off. I also taught myself quite a bit, through videos, books, transcribing songs etc

AWESOME!!!!

Excelente interpretación y sonidos...!!! Muy musical, como dicen ustedes: Awesome...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have a killer vintage plexi and totally don't need the pedal, but your vid made me want one anyway. Nice vid man.

@iBrows1 yes I agree! It works great in front of a Marshall set clean.
