this video is confusing because his tone for the raconteurs is actually way different than it was for the white stripes. the white stripes he was trying to make up for only being a two piece. so it was lots of noise and messy tones. the raconteurs is more refined but still vintage sounding with more expensive gear.
He just released his own video on the pedals he uses, because that Plasma Fuzz just came out with an upgrade. His Bee Fuzz is over $300. He had three pedals. It’s on his channel. Those cheap guitars he used to use aren’t so cheap anymore. He uses vintage gear to record, as well as newer tech.
CorbCorbin yeah. But thats him trying to sell some pedals. Lol. It’s all relative. At the time he was using cheap gear to get those tones. The only reason they’re expensive now is because of him. If he hadn’t come around all that stuff would stilll be cheap.
Did you watch Jack White’s video he released just recently? He plays stuff from multiple bands using three different pedals. It’s basically a demo for that Plasma Fuzz V2, that was a co-release with his brand, but he uses the other pedals too.
100%, thought the same thing. The POG is sick - didnt know it could do so much for a riff like Blue Orchid - but it’s the lead with the POG that does so much for his uniqueness. Oh well. Still a pretty rad demo
I'd like to see another. Need to get a MXR MIcro Amp next time. He runs that in every band and even has one built into his Gretsch guitars for the Raconteurs.
@@andrewpappas9311 one of the best songs to learn harmonix too and get an understanding of how to blend those chords into songs to enrich the ear with notes that just ring plus great for those trying to tighten up there picking Billy's riffs are simple but precise in nature
She Sells... Easy but hard at the same time. Sounds epic once you've got the timing down. I'd love to know what pedals they choose for the intro and main song. Duffy said the intro tone was found by luck when all his pedals were turned on by accident...
You told me to put it in the comments so I’m putting it in the comments that I would like an expanded sound like Jack White with solo albums + dead weather \m/
can we have a sound like for David Bowie (and Mick Ronson) without busting the bank Slash [Solo Career] without busting the bank Peter Frampton without busting the bank or Queen's Brian May & John Deacon BY busting the bank
@Progressive Angler there's more too it than that! you also need a flanger for Keep Yourself Alive, chorus for A Kind Of Magic, delay for Brighton Rock, and a telecaster for Crazy Little Thing Called Love
Another great episode guys. Sounds like Bloc Party would be a good one, Some really unique tones and there's a good rig rundown to show how Russell does it too
The Broadtrons & Filtertrons have a whole second identity with fuzz and vintage drives.Beautiful harmonic spectrum matched with lower output= ideal conditions for sonic carnage. Third Man has some of their own pedals that well capture their particular breed of raunchy.
Please, please, please do another episode on Jack's tone. First thought I had when I saw this video was "Oh cool Jack has done so much new stuff since they last did his sound so there's so much more for room for tone finding!!" but that didn't happen a bit. Just the same White Stripes tones as before. His sound and rig is so much more elaborate and interesting on his solo records, that is definitely where you guys should've gone with this one.
@@jleighwolfe apparantly, he doesn't on the current Raconteurs-tour. He only plays his Gibsons and his Fenders at those concerts. But on his solo-tour, he did. That's were you right :) Greetings from Germany
Saw the Saboteurs (aka Raconteurs) in Melbourne earlier this year and he was mainly using a Flying V and his custom Gretsch Double Jet. Obviously he uses a bunch of different guitars though.
boring. marshall jcm800 with 10 band eq basically functioning as a tube screamer with more extreme frequencies, emg loaded guitar (or dimarzios super distortions as those were on the reign in blood album as it seems), there you go. When going for budget you just go with the damned dsl 40 instead and literally any emg or dimarzio loaded shred axe. and a 10 band eq.
@@ithemba really you could do what you did for any artist.."just a strat into a plexi with a fuzz face",or "les paul into cranked marshal with a tone bender" etc etc
Had they done more of his newer stuff, this rig probably would have worked, but most of the excerpts, if not all were more geared towards the budget rig. :/
Amazing. I think a great challenge for you guys would be "sound like Rammstein" by busting or not the bank doesn't matter, their tone it's definitely hard to match and very distinctive.
Yes please do Jack White solo stuff!!! Seriously you need to do his lead tone which is a digitech whammy set to one octave up into a big muff!!! also there is a whole bunch of new pedals made by Game changer audio that partnered with his Third Man record label. A lot of his new solo stuff has those pedals like the bumble buzz that gives him that "Over and Over and Over fuzz tone!!!
I don't personally go all that crazy over Jack White or the White Stripes in general, but I certainly don't underestimate how influential songs like 7 Nation Army were to 00s culture. Awesome work indeed!
@@KeeperOfPoops not sure you understand my comment... I'm not talking about which is closer to Jack White's sound, I'm saying the first Jack White video was my first "Sounds Like..." and since then I've watched lots of them.
Hey guys! Great vid! I suggest that you guys do sound like allmann brothers next. That would be really cool. Thanks so much for making these videos so often!
The wide angle always gives the impression of a big store with “areas” for brands of guitar. So I was quite surprised how small it actually was. Good, but by no means large.
I wanna go to England for no other reason than to visit this store and meet these guys, especially the captain!...and find a real shepherd's pie that kieth himself would enjoy...
Really good job- it sounds spot on! I'd love to see another Jack White episode.... if we revisit him though can we also have an episode dedicated to Dan Auerbach's solo work/the Arcs? I think it's sufficiently different from the Black Keys. Also, how about REM and/or Tom Petty?
Ironically, the same day you post this, Jack posted a video of the three main pedals he’s been using live and in the studio lately... so he did a Sound Like Jack White video too.
In light of their latest release, which is absolutely superb. Sound Like: Norma Jean, By/Without. Would love to see you guys throw down some of those nasty, muddy riffs.
Love comments like these! Didnt even know they were still around, Ill have to check out their new stuff ETA: Looked it up, and theyve been busy eh? For some reason I thought they broke up after Bless the Martyr(...) and havent thought about it since then. Used to listen to BtM and the older Luti-kriss stuff a ton.
@@wingracer1614 [ETA: not sure what this means "Whiskey comes from Ireland and about 3/4ths of what comes from the US." - are you saying that 3/4th of the US spirit is "whiskey? or Ireland produces about 3/4 of what the US does? ] US distillers use the spelling "whiskey", and as "bourbon" is primarily a US product, in the context of the Comment above, it should read ".... the other's a whiskey." I have just been to check - it seems that Canadian and Japanese distillers use "whisky", maybe some other countries do too, but they are bit players compared to Scotland and the US.
@@pulaski1 What I mean is that about 3/4 of the whiskey from the US uses the e but there are some brands that do not for instance Maker's Mark, one of the best selling brands in the world does not use the e. Then there is India which makes about as much whisky as the rest of the world combined so by volume, whisky comes from India. As for origins of the words, whisky is from Scotland, whiskey is from Ireland.
Bring on the Jack white solo sounds like! Go grab a Wolfgang custom and drop some Lollar's in it. I jest at the level of customization but why not :) Bust that bank!
About time 😁👌, shame some of the sounds sounded better from the budget episode a few years back, and shame no digitech whammy for his well known lead sound. But not to bad, keep up the good work big fan of your vidioes.
Do another Sound Like Jack White and use his signature Game Changer Audio pedal with the JHS Twin Twelve since that was inspired by the sound of a Silvertone Amp
I've been asking for this for months....I'm so happy right now. That said what you guys did was really good, but you didn't do any of the tones I really wanted to hear, like his lead and newer stuff.
PLEASE do sounds like new jack white solo. those crazy pedals he uses to make his guitar sound like a white water rapid in an 80s arcade game need exploration!
Game changer Audios Plasma Pedal gets pretty close, and 3rd man records has its own signature version so that's a good shout if you're looking for that driven/distorted sound.
Hi guys! great video again, a pleasure to watch as always. You’ve got that foundational tone pretty much spot on. Could you do another one on how he gets his solo’s (like Ball and Biscuit) to sound so unique? I assume it’s something like a digitech whammy, but he does use that crazy third man plasma pedal too?
Here is my guess for the Cure- US prices Rabea: Squier classic vibe Jazzmaster $399 (US) Roland JC 40- $499 Hmm: $500!left for pedals: some sort of OD (Boss blues driver), use chorus from amp, flanger (BF3), phaser, delay, reverb. Matt: squier bass VI $429, fender SS amp, flanger, delay, reverb This would definitely be fun to play around with and try to get the tones of The Cure
Okay, here on 7 nation arm i am going to jump in. if you check the video: bring the noise. he uses his big Gretch, and said he uses an octave pedal down to G for the " da da da da da-dum" then turns is off for the chorus. this is how he explained it to jimmy page.
