Nice comparison video. Good selection of pedals to compare and I like that you use a looper to keep the input consistent. 👍🎸🎶
Distortion boxes have come a long way. Back in the day if you ran one through a clean amp (like a JC120), it usually sounded like tin foil on fire. The distortion pedals today are miles above from what they used to be. I liked how the Tone City pedals sounded...full and rich. You're going to make me dig out my Pinnacle and Power Stack pedals...they sounded cool. I also dig the Bogner Red distortion pedal too. Great video!
To me it’s the Golden Plexi and the Fireman.
I agree with this. I like the pepers third. I really respect Wampler and his creations but I have never bought them because they have too much low end
@@djpgreek The Pinnacle sounded better when he tweaked the EQ a bit. He had too much treble dialed out at first.
That NUX pedal sounded beastly! I always scroll past their stuff out of a lack of recognition, but I might try picking up some of their pedals to give them a spin. If they sound as good as the one in this video then I've been missing out.
Good video. Not everyone would be able to do what was done in this video pertaining to the fact that not all of us have the tools and resources to do so.
The Wampler PInnacle Deluxe v2 is great as a distortion pedal. You really need to understand the 3 band eq and all the switches and work in order to get the sound you are looking for. The Plexi Drive Deluxe also by Wampler i would say fix better as the typical plexi sounds with fantastic clean glassy tones and so much more low gain possibilities.
All were good and usable but my favorite is the NUX Fireman.
I liked the pinnacle the best. I was surprised how good the boss and outlaw sounded. They weren't fizzy like some of the others
I really liked the Pinnacle but daaayum! The Guvnor really holds up after all these years!
Recently got that NUX plexi and it sounds brutal but does get noisy with the gain jacked up.
I have bought and sold about 250 pedals since 2014. I review pedals but keep the best than sell the others. That said I have kept 70, LOL. My favorites are a good MIAB . They are all good but most I had but sold as I found another that covered the same ground better. I guess I will pick the NUX because that one I kept because I also own 10 guitars and the NUX is killer with a Tele bridge PU. The Tele PU has got killer bite but needs fattening. The NUX is simply perfect. With other PU's the NUX I find is too woofy in the low mids. Thanx for the video. It was excellent with so many to compare.
People rave about the mini golden plexi . I preferred both Nux pedals on the first board. Guynor did well but TMD wins on the 2nd board. Plus skeleton graphics are aces. Thanks for the review.
The M as number one as plexi, boss power stack as number two-dials in plexi /major and more increased setting sounds like first Gen jcm800
Boss should be only used in fx return with el84 power tubes
I've had my fair share of MIAB pedals and I always find myself going back to a Zvex BOR.
Good video. I can also recommend the Xotic SL Drive. Great Marshall Superlead pedal.
I like the tone i get with the NUX but it’s a little quiet and the gain starts at the higher end of what I’m looking for.
Great vid!
Best: Tone City, worst: NU>X.
Pleasantly surprized by the TC pedals. Don't have any pedals yet 🫠
I prefer the 2 Tone City pedal . I have both of them & they're great ,especially for the price
I liked best for Plexi sounds the Tone City Model M. For the JCM800 sounds I preferred The Guv’nor.
I liked the Model M the best but the Plexi crunch probably most realistic
Realistic perhaps but I just sold mine because it was very noisy. Looking for it's replacement.
The Peppers is killer.. lots of gain on tap.. but Marshall is EITHER plexi modded or JCM 800 modded.. they are not the same.. Model M was great.. flexible... NU-x has that sizzle.. but the Fireman does not have the gain of the BE-OD pedal... I dont use mine past 10-11 o'clock for gain..evern with the dip switch set lower.. lol.. nice shootout..
Hey Robert i was wondering if you ever tried the Joyo US Dream pedal as from a demo from Gearmandude who talks like Jack Black he compared one to a Suhr Riot pedal and it was really close in sound and to me sounds like 80s hair metal which is the sound i like alot i was thinking of buying one as they are only like 40 bucks or something but wanted to know if youve tried one as i trust your opinions on gear, thank you for your videos man
I have the Boss and the Marshall Guv2. They all sound great. I think I’ll give Tone City Golden Plexi try. Fits my small pedal board perfectly
The Golden Plexi is an awesome pedal. Enjoy it!
Pedalpalfx pal 800 is still my favorite. Good vid!
@@Soulblighter I just got the v4 I love it! Pedalpal all the way! These all sound good as well though
I liked the Boss pedal the best. Kind of hard to go too far wrong with a Boss pedal.
Agreed!
Pepers pedals are AMAZING!! The Dirty Tree has become my favorite OD/Boost... I gotta try out that distortion pedal...
The Dirty Tree is badass! 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
Tone city stuff sounded great. I really liked the boss power stack and the marshall govner as well. Wasn't a fan of the wampler. Cool video Robert.
I liked the Thresher the best but they all sounded good.
I bought a jhs angry charlie v3 a few weeks back looking for that marshall in a box sound and man, I WISH it sounded like the tone city golden plexi. That is the noise.
The Tone City stuff is awesome!
Cheap pedal generally sound cheap compared to the better built more expensive ones. The tone city golden plexi is a great pedal for the price. Tone City pedals have a full thick amp like sound that satisfies. The Tone City Wild Fire is a great pedal also. Just sayin
I have that Nux Plexi Crunch I really enjoy it!. I hated the Jackhammer I bought one a few years ago way too many knobs . I think I gave it away
Still watching your 7 worst pedal ,sounds good still , nail on the chok board... Number 2 pedal.. amazing...
This is right up my alley!
I like them all except the small golden plexi, the pepper, the pinnacle, and the boss, would be great to know the prices
Links are always in the Description, my man. Except for the Hesher, anyway. There’s only 14 of those in existence, you’re not going to be able to find that one.
@@RobertWJackson Thank you Robert
Great comparison and collection!
The Hesher is a beast of a preamp pedal
Yessir it is!
Those old Focus are cool. ESP made all the Kramer necks right ? I’m assuming even the Focus. I had a chance to buy an old Focus and or a Charvel Model???? Something for about 300 dollars back around 2010 but I wasn’t playing guitar very much at the time and it wasn’t uncommon to see them in good condition for less than 500 back then. I had a shot at an early 90s Soloist it was black Cherry with a matching headstock which was kinda special as it wasn’t a custom shop but kinda a semi custom. They pulled this soloist off the line because the guy wanted black Cherry and a matching headstock. They were building production soloist by the time anyway 1000 and I passed ( insert Fred Sanford YOU BIG DUMMY! ) .
I was never into Kramer when I first got into guitar and Eddie was already playing Peavey by the time I started playing. Kramer came on quick and it was like they went away overnight but I consider Kramer the original every mama super Strat .
Crazy how student guitars become desirable 30 or 40 years later
The Plexi Crunch is hard to beat for the money as long as you actually want a hot rodded Marshall it’s got a ton of gain!
Sick guitar. Great video as well.
Glad I watched it.
Have you tried the AMT M1? From their legendary amps series pedals. It is pretty good. I like the Peppers pedals and the Nu-x. I have the BOSS Power stack but I find it finicky with certain amps. For me it seems to sound best in Solid state vs tube amps. Peppers is my Favorite. all sound good though
I have not unfortunately gotten to try any of those AMT pedals. I’ve heard a lot of good things about them, though.
The sonicake rude mouse is better than all of those
i have the nu-x plexi crunch. its great love it. def not a plexi. its a hot rodded jcm800 sound.
Please consider a preliminary tune up next time. . .
Nah…
NUX for me! Funny that Marshall is probably one of the worst "marshall in the box" pedals :)
Cool video I have some of these pedals. 👍
Golden Plexi, Guvnor and the Boss pedal were my favorites. The GP is a steal at 50 bucks and there are SRV tones in there with the right Fender and some twiddling, at a reasonable volume! Another example of the low to mid price pedal, at least upon release competing with the boutique pedals.
I thought that little deputy sounded great.
This pedals go in front of the amp in clean chanel?
Correct.
The Tsakalis Room #40 eats these for lunch. Also the NUX plexi crunch is a rip off of the Ramble Fx Marvel Drive. Where’s the Wampler Plexi Drive???
k
No matter how many times I listen to the intro back, it sounds like a deep voice saying 'Limp Dick'.
Moist.
Wampler is the best. Those Tone City are surprisingly good & then you see the low price 👍🏻The Boss PS is also good much better than the thin sounding Metal Zone
The Metal Zone isn’t thin sounding. It’s got an uber-sensitive semi-parametric EQ that can get away from you in a hurry if you don’t dial it in right.
The Guvnor I have JHS modded & is really good
