Viewer Comments & Questions LIVE! Mick Again This Week - Dan's Away 

I ran into Daniel yesterday at Animal Kingdom!!! He was so kind and graciously took time out of his vacation/ family time to take a picture with me . Made my day !! Thanks Daniel!!! I hope the rest of your vacation goes great!!

Thanks for going solo in Dan’s absence- much appreciated.

Thanks Mick , glad you're still holding the fort while Dan is still away. You're keeping me sane while I'm wearing a Blood pressure monitor for 24 hours every half an hour it squeezes the crap out of my left arm . Friday's show was epic and thank God old Rick Tomato is doing well after his operation, have a great week . PEACE AND LOVE TO EVERYONE ❤❤.

The bloke that's wanting to run a pedal on a switch to be either in the front or in the loop - Bright Onion pedals have a box that'll do it for you.

Hi Mick, i hope the gig went well 🤟

Even with all of the tech challenges and obstacles, its great to spend a littke time with the tribe. Thanks for steering the ship and bringing us the VCQ Mick. I love the Over Shirts, I ordered one of each color. Free shipping to the US. You're too good to us. BIG Love!

Well done, Mick, for soldiering on through all the technical gremlins!

A lovely VCQ accompanying me during lunch. Hey Mick, any chance you two will do a germanium boost shootout with the Kingtone Rise?

10:07 - Here, here! Visually top notch, sonically remarkable - literally in this instance! Was listening to various guitar-based YT videos using IEM's whilst on holiday. Concluded after a day that TPS reruns had to happen AFTER others, as the step down in quality of audio was too pronounced to cope with the other way round. Whatever you've done up to this point is magnificent.

Thank you so much Mick for a wonderful episode, nevermind the tecnical hickups, we are all just happy to be here with you.

Ha ha. Love the Tube Driver and Echorec on top of the Hiwatt!

in the past 4 weeks I've bought A Mythos fates, and a Mythos positron... then a 2017 gibson SG, and a 2023 LP standard "greenie" (kirk hammet). the SG on craigslist, the LP at the gibson garage... I also loved the falcon 20... so I bought that... so now I need a captor x.... I'm gasing too much lately. thinking of selling a few things I'm not playing

Not watching live: flawless😅😅

The voltage control reminds me of how Joe Bonamassa uses the kikusui power supply for his amps. He’s talked about the same issue with his rig going from place to place or country to country where the blooming of the amps is just entirely different if the power is all over the place.

Nice to see you giving that 335 some love Mick!

The idea of "overthinking" cannot be assessed by another, outside of the current experiences. Awareness of the priorities personally assigned to information over experiences is critical. Ask yourself the question "How can, and should I react to this situation? A personal understanding of what is "best" expands with maturity. My impatience to mature lead me beyond the correlation of current personal information decades ago. Human kind simply cannot become sufficiently aware due to limited intelligence and understanding which accompanies.

Thanks Mick have a great week! Looking forward to the Warren Haynes epi on Friday! ❤✌🏻🎸🤘🏻

I see a Bassman 50 head back there on your amp shelf. And I don’t recall an episode where you have had it plugged in. Would love to hear this through a suitable cabinet of your choice and you and Dan put it through its paces.

I would love a video over your production process.

Falling Down 2 - Buffering Feel your pain Mick, tech letdowns are the worse. Thanks for making the effort and keeping it together, I apprecaite you!

Thanks for keeping me from going crazy, while I‘m preparing to defend my doctoral thesis in September. I really hat oral exams but TPS always improves my mood.

Really looking forward the the Warren Hanes episode. Really curious to hear him speak about reverb. Seems he doesn't use it much.

Dual routing option - KMA Endgame.

Watched on replay and enjoyed it. No buffering or studdering

Great job these past two weeks, Mick!

In with a shot. Perfect.

Fuc digital DI with acustics, I run mine to my Blackstar Venue HT Club 40 mkII on green voicing through a cheap compressor and a Bluesbreaker (pedal} clone. Sometimes chorus, often reverb, but works great and no feckin' DI faffle required. Even gets monitored on-stage by 40 wats of tube love.

I just picked up a Palmer Pocket Amp mk2.. Super little thing. Would two of those inline Wet/Dry solve the open mic question.?

Sometimes, what you think you hear onstage , is not what the audience hears offstage. Meaning: Subjective perception, tastes and opinions vary greatly. It's all good?

Firebirds must be the best strats then. (3 piece)

Ah, Mick, I missed again due to playing taxi to and from the airport. I'm going to try to write in next week in a way I know will make Dan slightly uncomfortable but I'll only speak the stark truth. TheGigRig stuff is the very best. If anyone wants to remove all anxiety, down time, malfunctions, basically anything negative, the power system from TheGigRig will get everything sorted reliably. That's just the way it is. I'd give up any three of my best pedals, and more, before I'd give up Dan's power supply. And for me, the Quartermaster 10 has also been a perfect switcher. Silent and reliable. Now I'm off to look at a blue over-shirt... Cheers, Mick.

I was twice at kloppmann's swapping his pickups - not his fault. he is an extrodenary nice, friendly and interested person. unpretentious and unagitated

Gorgeous 335

Sorry working during. But I do have a question. Looking at the amps in the background during your buffer issues, : can I have all your Two Rock amps please? Pretty Please?

If your new here your very late but welcome

@ThatPedalShow Have you considered or do you have a Starlink subscription? It sorted out my business partner’s rural internet hell. Might help you? Need a pretty wide view of the skies so not great if surrounded by trees.

Correction >> 3 Mbps up and down.

You were never off line that I could see.

Nothing in August?! Or no vcq?

To make statements like "3 piece bodies are the best" is foolish. Every guitar body, no matter how many pieces it's made of, has to be evaluated as part of the entire string support system. Plus, one man's meat... etc.

Andreas Kloppmann is a pickup maker, not a physicist. His notion that you mentioned, that 3-piece strats have different "harmonics" - because the bridge and pickups are on "the middle piece" - is a scientific assertion. It is standard practice when making such assertions to cite the evidence on which it is based. For example, evidence from someone who has measured enough 3-piece strats versus non-3-piece strats to detect any such differences (in amongst all the other things that cause similar guitars to sound different). If Kloppmann did not do that, and given his apparent lack of relevant qualifications, one should take such assertions with a huge grain of salt. Chances are he's just heard some 3-piece strats that sounded good, and he misconstrued that the body construction had something to do with that. Or some great player told him that, and he believed it. Or he just believes the common physics nonsense that the German guitar press has somewhat of a reputation for. Given what we know from actual measurements such as the very low bridge admittance in strats, I would speculate that the chances of his assertion being true are most likely zero.

I didn’t watch live and I saw no issues. You work from the country and your connection sucks. I live in a large wretched city (Toronto) and get 3 gig up and down. Trade?
