You both, Dan & Mick, just add a deeper dimension to my life. As a busy widower with 3 children here in Southern California. The free time is rejoiced in it's full extent by pausing from my activities and soaking in your knowledge on pedals etc....a treat! Thank you. Blessings to you all!

@@williamcampbell7387 Bill, pushing forward and with a cheerful heart. I grew up as a rancher.... worked at Warner Bros. Hollywood for decades...now retired in my early 50's and Mr. Mom. I'm thankful to the good Lord. You be blessed.
Wow!! Thanks ever so much for including me in your amazing video series! Loved that Pedal Board! The way you split the sounds with the Wet/Dry was absolutely superb! You guys really know your stuff!! By the way that Tele Thinline was a truly amazing Guitar! Great times my friends!
@@Producelikeapro YES! setting up, recording and mixing guitar tones? what a guitarist is looking for from a producer and vice versa? how to develop a British accent and take over the internet? Love the TPS and PLAP channels, thanks for all the hard work guys!
Guys, thank you thank you thank you and thank you for this unforgettable experience! I had goosebumps once again watching this episode. Haha! I will wet-dry the heck out of my next gig in a few days. Love you guys, please keep on inspiring us players! Cheers, Kris
Thanks for sharing with all of us what this experience was like for you and how it affected your playing. While I too always watch these shows with my best headphones, I know that experience can't possibly compare to what your experiencing in the room. I especially appreciate what you said about how the sound influenced what you felt inspired to play and how it actually freed you up to go places you don't normally go to musically. I think that was the strongest testament I have heard for how a great sound can influence your playing and overall enjoyment of it. Glad the guys got together with you there.
Awesome guys, Kris' face when he first hears it, priceless. I think we need a recap on running two amps, the safety aspect and ABY boxes, from decent to top end, I'm sure there are lots of us out there that have a few amps but are unsure about connecting them for a wet/dry combo without turning into Doc Emmett Brown at the clock tower.
Several takeaways from this vlog! 1. Wet/dry is amazing! 2. I wish I had a Store like that where I live! 3. I got a couple new RU-vid channels to watch! 4. How about Micks playing at the end there! That was tasty! 5. I will be able to sleep better after this pickup shootout! Thanks for always opening our eyes to properly using our gear and constantly inspiring me to make better tone!
I wanna be like Mick. Your passion and skill as a player is UNREAL. I can't get through a single episode without breaks every 5 minutes to play. You guys are so inspiring!
Awesome! The smiles on Chris and Warren's faces said it all. You can't fake that stuff :) Really appreciate the context provided by another really great backing track for the jam at the end, and there was even whiff of coiffure shaking from Mick there too. 👍
Before TPS I’d never heard of a wet/dry rig. I wasn’t one for stereo, so I just ran all effects into one amp. It was fine, but I just never felt I was getting the ‘most’ out of my modulation or time domain effects... because I had to keep the mix down to get clarity. Now- each pedal is performing at its peak, and the clarity doesn’t suffer. It also somehow allows my drive pedals to sound so much fuller!!!!! Thank you guys for steering me towards the best sound I’ve ever gotten... and also giving me reason to buy a couple more amps!!!!! 😉 Cheers!!!!!!
Thank you sir! And greetings to one of the only other Dunstans I’ve heard of. A really great friend of mine from school has a brother named Dunstan. Cheers!
About the gear-making-you-play-better/different point: Ever since I started guitar about a decade ago, I was primarily a metal player with the occasional drifting into punk rock at most. However, in the last year or so I started playing around with different sounds and amps in my Axe-Fx III (sorry, can't afford fifty tube amps worth 2000 quid each) and I can now pretty much say I am a blues player more than a metal player. My vocabulary is rather intermediate but each day I spend playing tweed amps, blackfaces, and other boutique amp models, I am discovering blues playing that I never knew I had in me. Of course, watching you guys makes it even more fun to play a whole genre that I didn't dare touch before this. (I discovered your channel at pretty much the same time as I started playing those different amp models, so there is definitely a correlation there.)
That jam at the end by mick was the most inspiring I've heard from him in the dozens of episodes I've watched... and now I need to buy a harmonic tremolo. So amazing.
If anyone was ever on the fence about buying a Supro Tremolo, this video should put any doubts to rest. Fantastic episode and Mick, that was some of the greatest playing I've ever heard from you there at the end. Bravo!
Wow! Just wow! Great content throughout, loved seeing (and hearing) the reactions of the guys experiencing wet/dry for the first time. But Mick, your playing at the end was out of this world!!! Get over here and give me some man love you rocking stud! That was incredible!!! Great video from start to finish.
To coin.a street term I wait every week to get my fix. Thank you, you have inspired my playing, gear choices and helped with how to make it all work. TPS Dan and Mick = Amazing!
What I really find inspiring (after still playing / writing / recording daily since +35 years) is your enthusiasm and your joy in playing, and fiddling with all things guitar. I am so glad this will never stop. Cheers!
Dan has been practicing for What I can tell, his playing at around 20 is amazing, especially that first clean run. Mick killed it in around 40, your playing stiles complement each other in my view. You guys sold me on the wet dry thing and I did what I could with the rig I have. I know you all know how much home space gear takes and how hard it can be to make the wife get along with it. Keep up the good work guys
Oh my oh my. Seriously Mick that’s some of the greatest playing you have ever done on this channel. Obviously helped by the set up and THAT harmonic tremolo but ladies and gents banking tracks are what it’s all about now folks. Oh yes, oh yes, oh yesirtee yes!
What a great blog. Loved hearing Warren and Kris playing a wet/dry rig for the first time. Can’t believe they were virgins. Would be great to see Warren to work with you guys on recording the various signal chains setups you guys work with - see him overlay plugins and outboard gear to further enhance your setups in a mix. That would be a great series! As always - grateful for the content you create.
I’ve watched this channel for years and I have never seen such an absolutely STELLAR level of playing as in this video - and that only further makes the case for wet/dry! Watching Mick let loose at the end says it all (as Chris said) a good sound gets you a better player. Cheers guys, keep at it!!
I’ve been a fan for a couple of years, but the show keeps getting better and better. The recent content is amazing! Some much needed diversion and entertainment during what have been a depressing couple of weeks. Thank you so much!
Alex, Mick here. As somebody who has met the black dog and feeds the bastard biscuits regularly, I feel you. Peace to you man. I’ve discovered that happiness might not be the goal I thought it was. But peace is absolutely attainable. Best to you!
That Pedal Show thanks Mick, that means the world to me! Find joy in the small things and the bigger & better things will follow (eventually) - or so I’ve been told. Cheers, Alex
Mick pro tip for the belle epoch deluxe. If you open it up there is a switch to change it from true bypass mode to trails mode. When in trails mode the bypass switch essentially cuts the signal going into the “record head” so your dry signal is still running through that buffer and you don’t have a sudden phase flip.
Thank you! I think it was an add nine thing - like 9, 5, 1 of each chord, then I missed the one of the last one and hit a semi tone down (which would be 7). Sounded angular. :0)
It’s already been said, Mick, but your playing on the outro jam was really sensational; and a wonderful way of demonstrating how the right sound/rig/set up can inspire a person to play with genuine abandon (less inhibition) and spark creativity.
Love this so much! Both your playing in this video was top notch fellas! Dan was in a zone when playing with the wet dry rig. I need to do this with my 68 custom vibrolux! Looking forward to that pickup video mick!
Non sequitur, but I was just in Tokyo and tried some custom Japanese Moon guitars, T and S style and I was literally blown away by the feel, sound, build quality and design choices. I think you guys should go to Japan! Beautiful things happen over there.
Nice fade to the Strat at 39:06! Wow, I'm always so impressed/inspired by, and so enjoy Mick's, Dan's and their guests' playing (and Dan's transports to other dimensions)! Amazing! Thanks!
@@ThatPedalShow Yes, delays are digital, but I think that delays and some moduation that split the signal, don't effect on the "true analog tone" so much. For dinamic effects it's different. It's only my humble opinion, but if something sounds good other stuff doesn't matter. Guitar, pedals, effects, amps, are a help to get inspired, but on this way there are an evil enemy: preconceptions
Props to you for using the Neutrik Silent plug cable at the end! That thing is truly one of the most revolutionary things in cables in the last few years that is still kind of floating under the radar of most people.
Warren's a very classy player, and a bit outside the usual for TPS. A good choice of guest. Love the SA250 too, but a bit beyond my wallet right now. Great work as ever guys.
Mick, what you are able to squeeze out of that small board and handful of pedals, along with your might tasty style of playing ........ simply amazing and very very inspiring! Thanks :-)
It's interesting to me to see real musicians discovering the wet/dry phenomenon. My second pedal was a Lehle P-Split, which instantly solved the decades-old problem of trying to forbear the tone of cheap amp-shaped-objects. It happened I had a couple of Little Labs IBPs around from a kick drum project I had worked on, so I've been able to work on the phase issues with digital latency and just squeezing speakers together in an un-lined-up array. Currently working up an eight-channel monster rig, though I can't really imagine a practical use for it. Just pushing out the boundaries. 🎸🔊🚀💸
This Is A SHOW ! ! the best work of the last few years Sorry if I tell you, but this is how I perceived! ... truly a beautiful "trip", true, precise and direct, with a lot of expressiveness and sincerity! beautiful! P.s. finally I saw you move your jaw! :)
Huge thumbs up Guys! I've cobbled together my amps and am beginning to sort out the Wet Dry sound to experience it for myself. Thanks for the inspiration! Your videos have gone into a whole new level! You're really setting the bar for yourselves very high. Content like yours is now the standard!
just something about a real nice telecaster, you can take bucker loaded Gibson's, fancy looking PRS's, or a host of other brands and the no frills plank we call a Tele just smokes them. This was a great video guys, very inspiring.
Building my wet/dry rig now. Princeton Reverb for dry and Super Sonic for wet with mod/delay pedals in loop. Can't wait to heart it. Thanks for your show and the T shirt.
Finally sitting down to watch this on a lazy Sunday afternoon, and an ascending arpeggiated lick that Dan played reminded me instantly of a classical guitar part I adore on the album of a Japanese voice actress whose work I admire, Hiroko Kasahara. I don.t know the name of the guitarist who played on the album, "Madrigal", but it struck me in a way I"d never before considered how the experience of listening to music is an intimately individual experience influenced by all the music we"ve heard in the past. There are probably not a lot of other fans of TPS who have ever heard that album, let alone own it, and so I may very well be the only person to feel something like what I felt hearing Dan play that lick. Isn"t music marvelous?
Excellent vlog I am working on putting a "basics" board together, then adding a daughter board for anything special. I may be rethinking that for a wet/dry small board now. Thanks for posting this
That Austin Pride pedal is freaking beautiful..... I don't even care what it does, I need that. And Dan is playing Paul David's Telecaster LOL. Great video and amazing sound.
I don’t know of it’s already been said by everybody already but I do appreciate some amount of jamming with tracks, it doesn’t have to be too long or take up too much of the video but it’s nice to hear the playing and the sounds in context
Yeah, bit of a PiTa that. Really depends what you want the looper to do/reproduce. I would have it after all the pedals before the wet amp. So that it reproduces everything, I put into it. If you can decide what you want it to reproduce, you can put it in the right spot...
Really enjoyed this episode, great example of using a smaller pedal board for a short trip away, fantastic playing by Mick at the end, he was really getting into it!, ultra cool grooves 😁
I haven't looked at how much those board boxes cost...afraid to look! But I do have some cabinetry skills, so perhaps I'll build one for myself custom, and post it on Instagram or something ... then of course there's the pedals! Thankfully I have a few of those, but I don't have a controller like a Gig Rig... yet! This could get expensive but I would bet it would be endless hours of fun and bragging rights of having a killer board like what you guys have! Thanks again for sharing ... you two are the Dynamic Duo of pedals! More episodes wearing capes please! I'd but that T-shirt!!! 😎🎸
Sounds fab. The eight pointed screw thingy would be a Torx screw. Apologies if that has already been pointed out. Would be good to hear some humbuckers through that. On which topic the JEM has been conspicuous by its absence. Perhaps you would be more comfortable with a superstrat from Charvel or Suhr!
2 Blues Juniors 4 Pro Juniors 8 Champ 600s Alan Partridge in a pear tree... From 35:22 to 41:00 - bloomin' heck Mr. Taylor! That was downright inspiring. More performances/jams, please
Your show is great. Really enjoy the tech stuff and your work arounds.. It would be really helpful if you had at the end of each of your pedal board builds, like this one, "Wet/Dry build",. A block diagram of how you wired the pedals from input to output. Most folks get it but it would be great just to see your design and that way we get a little bit more in your heads.. Thanks, :Les
Thank you very much for responding to my note. I actually did not expect a direct reply and you impressed me again. Just a little history here. I spend many hours watching your shows from my hotel rooms when I am touring. I have built a few small boards and I seem to have become a victim of pedal mania. (I am officially a pedal geek). This is a little odd since my music roots are in the acoustic domain. I founded a music group you might have heard about in the past from your grand fathers,, (Ok maybe your fathers), The Nitty Gritty Dirt Band. I use my pedal board with my octave mandolin and my double bass. When I tour I play the early music that my band buddy John McEuen and I played when we started the band. I have to confess that the pedal board is used in my more contemporary band that plays pretty everything from bluegrass to swing to ????? We would be considered on the edge of acoustic music.. Too much fun.. and that is what it is suppose to be ... at least for me. Your show keeps me centered, grounded, and just very open minded about what is on the Dark Side. Love it. take care and keep them coming.. Les Thompson, NGDB and String Wizards. (touring right now with John McEuen and the String Wizards.
