Very nice👍
I think I figured it out. Steves banjo has more notes in it in mine.
That pink guitar is ADORABLE!! 🥰
Very good video, congratulations. I have a question for you. Does the volume increase or decrease when you activate the pedal?
Very enjoyable video and just the information I needed. Thank you, sir. Keep up the good work.
Hey, Thank you so much! I have a great big pedal board but want to build a one stack with a multi-effects pedal and one or two others...including trem. Real Estate is at a premium on a 15" single stack board, so this is really a cool alternative.
It still sounds boxy like them screamers, but a bit Jazz Hot settting.., still ascreamer type so Ill pass for now, Ive got 2 Rowin Tube Drives coming for lead solo bluesy type!! mr John Anthony, you could have least palyed a bit mor drive with the pedal, cause you obviously can...😎😎
I only wish an od ped would be demoed also as an od not just as a clean boost..., so for me considering buyin this ped this demos preeetttyyy useless...🤔🤔
Looks like I’ll have to put this one back on my mini board!
I have a stax Odrive 2 the same sound I love it it was $28 on Amazon I recommend it's awesome tube screamer
I glanced down at mine during your intro and my settings were almost exactly where you had yours.
Your playing Karma Police by Radiohead at 1:16
I am, indeed! Good catch!
Hello friend good, by chance, do you know if this pedal is to turn on automatically when you plug it in, if that is its natural process or is it harmful to the pedal, plug it in and unplug it since I do not see slot on or off.
Hey - it’s totally fine to plug-in and unplug a guitar pedal without an on/off switch. There’s no need to worry about damaging the unit.
@@JohnAnthonyPlaysMusic Very Thanks Amigo
can I use this pedal for a bass?
your tremolo playing was haunting, and really did this pedal justice... ..so much so that i ordered one and can't wait to use it. Terrific review!
Nice work!
love the content bro!
Thank you so much! Sorry for the late reply. Hope to have more videos coming this winter.
is this compatible for bass guitar?
Nice vid! I’m curious how well the stereo out would sound using Y cable. I like the idea of two sep cabs, but prolly would go mono into the FOH at church as stereo option is not really an option.
WTH did it take so long to get a stereo IR pedal?
That's a fair question! I think it's just that **most** guitar players don't play in stereo but, in truth, it's hard to say. DSP chips were super expensive for a while and it seems as though prices are starting to come down a bit -- maybe that influenced Flamma to pursue a stereo option.
Hey! How do I connect this Cab pedal to my Boss Katana 212 amp? I want to use my Katana’s speakers only. I also have the Preamp pedal.
@@JohnAnthonyPlaysMusic Thanks for the feedback, John! I appreciate it a lot!! So, could I use this pedal in addition to the Preamp pedal with a speaker Cab? I’m on a budget right now. What type of speakers would you recommend?
@@JohnAnthonyPlaysMusic Thanks again! This maybe a silly question. I’m actually starting to get into this simulation stuff. Do you think that I should get a mixer (Flamma)? I would like to use the Cab sim live. I guess I will need an external speaker beside the mixer right?
@@JohnAnthonyPlaysMusic ok cool! I will look around on Amazon for a suitable speaker. I had the Headrush FrFr108 in mind, but I’ll keep an eye on others.
@@JohnAnthonyPlaysMusic Hey John! I got the speaker. I must say that I’m very disappointed with it so far!! It sounds just as bad as my Block Rocker!!! Maybe I’m not connecting it right. I plugged my guitar to my pedal board and the last pedal on my board to the speaker. I also tried connecting my Boss GT 100 with it. Same crap!!! I feel that the videos that I’ve seen on CZcams don’t match the actual output quality of the speaker.
@@inrockwetrust940 that’s odd. Any cab simulation should be last in your chain so you are doing that correctly. I’ve found that sometimes the cab sims can be excessively bright so I have to take off more high end than I would on regular guitar amp like the Katana. What is the malfunction you’re speaking of?
great demo:)
Vou comprar um
é ótimo. aproveite, meu amigo. desculpe por usar o google tradutor.
@@JohnAnthonyPlaysMusic tranquilo kkk
Parabéns pelo vídeo, dá próxima, poderia por favor colocar a legenda em pt-br. Ajudaria muito na compreensão.

@@JohnAnthonyPlaysMusic muito obrigado manoooo
Wow! For a minute there… I lost myself… I Lost Myself.
Really enjoyed it! Love how many different musical situations you managed to make this pedal fit in!!
Yeah, Cody! Tremolo is super underrated, imo, unlike other modulation effects even if it’s always in it (kind of) self-ducks. This makes it a really versatile tool live or in the studio, imo. If you play a big potato chord with a slow/med tremolo setting you get really nice volume modulation but then as you start playing more rhythmic patterns or single note lines the effect lessens on its own.
Beautiful.. u should sing more of these softer,standards..it’s real nice. Btw,looks like you’ve got a small music store happening in your man cave there..
That was so nice, I’ll have to steal this arrangement, know I’ll be playing this tonight,🙏 thx, u rock
This setup sounds great. Looks like you have a lot more gear behind you ;-) Would love to see/hear what else you’re working with.
More videos incoming!
Jeeez! That first song was so gorgeous. With the reverb? So nice! Hard to believe that’s only $30 love these reviews. Some of the later samples u played had a nice R&B vibe, real pretty !
Thanks for checking out the video, Kevin! Tremolo is a super underrated effect, imo. It’s not just for country and blues anymore! I’m a big fan of how this one sounds.
The volume swells! Dammmmmm! U good! 🤘🤓🤘 The tone on the opening solo was crystal clear and gorgeous
Thank you! The OD-II made it super easy to get a great tone on this one.
Very good reviews indeed.☮️🤘🤠🤘☮️
Haha, I see what you did there!
huge fan of J.A.P.M.🤓🤘 💚💜☮️💜💚
Your thumbnails make me laugh, love the sense of humor, those,”here’s my clean tone” guys on YT take themselves so seriously, Love your attitude bra! Keep bangin
That first solo sounded so gooey and wonderfully compressed. that box photo is goofy, love it, You rock, Jazzy J !
Sounds great! It’s crazy how easy it is to get decent, and even great, sounds for recording nowadays. That seems super easy and intuitive, sounds good, and is $90??
Totally agree! I'm definitely not the biggest IR fan in the world and was initially skeptical about this unit. I was pleasantly surprised how easy it was to get a good tone with the stock IRs. The clincher for somebody would be the ability to load their own IRs -- I didn't even get into that part of the pedal. For $90, I think you can't beat it.
Love this young man's style of video
Thanks for the review!
Thank you for the opportunity!
Just subscribed and entered your giveaway awesome review and awesome giveaway idea! Thank you for the chance to win such a great tone find. God bless and stay up! Bless up one love!!!
Very well explained, and great playing! Really enjoyed this!
Thank you, Cody! I love tube screamer style pedals and can talk about ‘em forever. I had to cut myself off, lol.
New subscriber! That was totally entertaining, so classy., sounded like some compression during your solo…lotta clean sustain. When are usually gonna break out that Dr.Z half stack? That looks nice, what is that?
Rowin is one of the best budget brands around, those volume dial swells at the intro was the teets! Beautiful!
Who’s the grump who gave this a thumbs down? no WAY this review was flawless,my friend. Subscribed
That is so kind of you! I really appreciate the compliment and subscription. If you’re interested, next week I’m giving away an overdrive pedal on my Instagram: @japlaysmusic
That solo at the top sounded really clear and chimey still sounded like a tele with a nice elegant overdrive.. 😮what’s with the John McLaughlin licks? Not bad playing either, u have a new subscriber
Excellently done!! I love the solo in the beginning. Haven’t heard you play like that before.
Me either! First time for both of us. 😹
OMG that solo, I love your stuff. You are now My favorite review nerd on CZcams
Thanks, my friend! More than happy to oblige you. 🥸🥸🥸
Really liked this demo. I normally go for pedals that have lonnnnnng delay time options. But I liked your technique of showing the sound with and without backing tracks, as well as using the same riffs on the different settings. Might not be the exact pedal for me, but giving your channel a follow!
There’s a real sweet swing to this. Bravo!
This is a super thorough and thoughtful review. Nice sounding pedal across a pretty wide spectrum. What stands out to me is your outstanding playing and immaculate technique.
