Life too short for long CZcams videos? See the ’Interesting bits and go-to sections’ timings below.
Hello! I've been building boards again - this time a new mega pedalboard for the amazing Josh Smith. We had two days to put the entire rig together before Josh hit the road on his UK tour with it so everything had to be right the first time. Some awesome clips of Josh tearing it up plus a great insight into how these sorts of pro touring rigs go together. Cheers!
Dan.

![Carry-On Luggage Pedalboard Challenge [Dan vs Mick] - That Pedal Show](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/0ntDSUwTqGM/mqdefault.jpg)
Dan is sweet, humble, and and brilliant. And I hope he knows that. And Josh is a barn burner of a musician
I think they know. : )
Better cancel that barn dance I had him booked for then. Damn.
I found Josh Smith because of TPS, and he is quickly becoming one of my all-time, favorite guitarists. Thanks, Mick and Dan!
He looks so unlikely - Pete Thorn looks the part...a little bit more fragile and artistic.
Josh looks more like the dude that the contractor makes sit in the back of the van and who comes out to dig the hole for your septic tank. I love that - judge a book by its cover and you miss the story. I always ask for the story, I've learned.
Amazing guy.
@@pd4165 he also just seems like a genuinely good dude.
Known him for many years, as amazing as he is of a musician, he's a great guy and quality human.
pd4165 I prefer. Met him yrs ago in philly in an in store. Still the same guy but obviously older. He deserves more recognition. No fancy side fade haircut or the current skinny jeans that will be out of style soon. Just wants to play guitar.
@@pd4165 I mean a lot of those contractors are ripping musicians, at least in the american midwest/south
Josh Smith is absolutely amazing and looks like he loves his rig and excited about it just like one of us. He is one of the greatest guitarists on the planet but yet he made time for us!! He is the people's champion of guitar heroes.
Thank you, Josh 👏
And thank you Dan. You have put together an amazing product second to none and your videos on That Pedal Show have a format that are also 2nd to none. Thank you for also time labeling in the comment section so we can locate sections of the show we want to see quickly. The effort you put in to your videos is greatly appreciated. Again, thank you Dan 👏
FFS everytime Josh is on TPS my brain explodes. what a fantastic episode. Dan you are a humble brilliant master of your craft.
It has to be said. The content from TPS gets better and better. I like where this is going!
I keep coming back to this. Such an immense board.
Can we talk about how brilliant that shirt Josh has! I love it!
Josh Smith is refreshing because he is a true “tone hound”.. most pro guitar players can’t explain the signal flow, and specifics of their gear, but Josh is the kind of dude who seems to have the user manual in his head for every pedal he owns!! I really love when players can know and explain their gear well. Love this video!
Josh: "Where do you want the G2?"
Dan: "Where do YOU want the G2?"
Josh is finally getting some good exposure. Monster guitar player.
The only player I fear playing with is Josh Smith.
- Joe Bonamassa
You don't happen to know, when and where Joe Bonamassa said that? I'd love to watch that video/read that article!
i dont mean to be off topic but does anybody know a trick to log back into an Instagram account..?
I somehow lost my account password. I would appreciate any assistance you can give me
@Maximilian Garrett instablaster :)
@Jesse Liam thanks so much for your reply. I found the site thru google and im in the hacking process now.
Seems to take a while so I will reply here later with my results.
@Jesse Liam It worked and I now got access to my account again. I am so happy:D
Thank you so much you saved my account !
I get stoked when I see a Pedalboard Build on this channel - these are my favorite kind of videos.
When smart, passionate and brilliant people "clash" minds, magic can happen. This is magic as it goes beyond "just" being a great technician (Dan) and great player (Josh), far far beyond! Wow!
Luka Peternel
Did you watch Josh showing this board to Lee at Andertons?
He went into some excellent ideas, for different pedals, when he describes how he uses each one.
Josh is the biggest pedal geek ever. And uses them all!!
Gawd dayum. I’ve never seen a board this cool. It sure as hell has the right dude behind the wheel.
I love these pedal board builds!
I'm 3 minutes in and already my mind is boggled
Here we go again. I very much want to watch this and at the same time I very much don’t. Josh’s playing is so good as to put me in a simultaneous state of joy and despair. Joy at the beauty of it and despair at my own inadequacies.
Half way through. Oh to have hands from which music flows as effortless as breathing. And to be clear: the time, effort, and dedication that Josh must have put in to get to that place is nothing short of awe inspiring.
Still haven’t finished watching. Went and spent some quality time with the metronome instead.
Fossil Fishy if u never give up u too will eventually become a really good player.
Robert Wellington Cheers man, but I’m afraid that ship has sailed.
I’m 53, I’ve been playing for 30 years off and on. I’ve got good technique from studying classical in uni, tinnitus from my time gigging in the 90’s, and no real illusions as to my abilities and prospects.
I simply don’t have the time that would be required to take that huge leap from my current rather idiosyncratic abilities and anything approaching Josh’s mastery. Not mention that these days I’m fighting to maintain my left hand flexibility in the face of ageing hands.
And that’s okay, I’m perfectly happy with the little improvements I do have the time for. I do live looping and my metronome work over the last few months has noticeably made that easier and more musical. I take as much satisfaction in that as I did the big skill gains I got back in the day.
Fossil Fishy I hear you. Tinnitus is one reason I never wanted to be in a band on top of losing my hearing. It seems to run in my family. Deafness that is and I just don’t enjoy performing. Just love playing for me since I was a kid. But my hand and thumb thx to texting and guitar are already affected too. So I hear u. I thought u had never gotten started. But you’re a player and ur probably better than u let on. But this hobby does affect some people physically as I said and I hope I don’t have to give it up. I had to for a year myself and I was miserable. Take care.
Watching stuff like this makes you realize that the pedals and stuff are cool and it’s fun geeking out about them. HOWEVER it comes down to whether you can play or not. All Josh’s shit sounds great because he’s a great player and has put the time in to be so. And the pedals and Dan’s incredible pedal board are just the icing on the cake
I will often send a video clip to friends and say, "This is why I _______ CZcams"... it will either be filled with hate or love.This last couple of videos with Pete's board, the amp builds, and now Josh's have truly been awe inspiring and why I love CZcams. To the point of making me emotional. I am old enough to have been around before the internet. A young guitar player of my day could only dream of having this kind of inside look. It has nothing to do with my own gear or playing. It is just kind and generous for TPS and the artists/vendors to let us go behind the scenes like this. Thanks for letting us hang with the cool kids guys. Really.
Josh seems like a really nice guy. Must have been a blast hanging out. Amazing guitarist/musician. Well done Dan - once again an incredible board build.
Just want to say that stumblin on people like Dan and Phil X has reignited my love for the guitar again. It was my world for many years and 3 albums and some tours later I fell out of love with it. Much due to trying to please an imagined market.. Anyway, thanks! And Dan, you're an incredible player!
Josh is such a great guy. A genuine gear and tone junky.
I'm pretty sure those notes aren't on any of my guitars...
Tim Halligan Its a weel kept secret. These guys have special build guitars that has other notes. The music industry has known this for ages, and still try to hide the truth. Damn them....
hahahahahahaha!!
Favourite comment ever
Tim Halligan 😂😂😂
What a great vlog! Great job Dan, Mick and Josh. It's very rare and refreshing to see someone as patient and humble as Dan. And clearly, not only is Josh a great musician, he's got a lot going on in his head! Mega Tones!!
Another fantastic episode! I love the build specials, and this was like a 3 for the price of one, artist interview, pedal reviews, product demos and build tips for good measure!
😳😳what a player Josh is & such a nice guy who knows what he wants and has the technical know how to articulate it. A player’s player! 👏👏👏 Great video Dan!👍🎶
Good lord, monstrous build, playing and tones. Thanks y'all. :)
This is passion. From Dan and Josh. Both of these men are so passionate about what they do. Dan's the best and Josh is amazing.Thanks for this both of you.Cheers from Texas!
Dan the man, the Myth, the Legend !
Just spent all day building a pedal board for a friend of mine, then popped onto CZcams and watched this. Now I question everything in my life. 😅 Dan, you are a gentle fuzzy soul and a fount of pedal wisdom.
Dan was absolutely exhausted at the end, that''s how a great engineer makes happy faces!
and Josh is amazing...thanks for the great video guys!
This video brought me so much insurmountable joy.
Josh you are quickly blowing away all of my heroes on my list of favorites and Dan I am blown away by the ridiculous amount of mad science that comes out of your brain.
Thanks to both of you for the lesson.
I got all this emotion when Josh fires up the board and starts to jam...... so much awesome
This Video is Ruling!!! I love when Dan sez "Soooo Loud!!!" Anytime you guys hang with Josh great things happen and he is the coolest for sharing so much and like all of us, for being so jazzed about the guitar and music!! Cheers guys!!
Saw Josh on Sunday in Bristol, an insanely good guitarist! That live performance of Penance absolutely blew my mind!!
Hes got everything man Jazz, Blues, Rock, Country... and incredible sound
Awesome. Great playing, tone shaping and conversation. Learned a ton and had about as much fun watching Josh and Dan have fun. Thank you both.
Super cool, I really enjoyed this! Thank you TPS for sharing this process with us 👍 Oh and Josh is just a beast of a player, I really hope to see/hear him live someday! 😉
Yeesh, what a player! And what a board! This is an education on many levels!
Good God, that board is mind bending! Josh's playing is also mind bending! Dan, your skills are mind bending! Holy crap! My mind is blown...
Holy Crap every time I see Josh play my jaw drops what a talent and that board sounds and looks incredible! Cheers all around y'all!
What a privilege to see the interaction, both professional and personal between you guys. The most enjoyable combination of Jedi uber master playing and science I've seen so far. I will come back to this again and again for inspiration. Thank you so much for sharing.
Best board ever Dan, unreal sounds and balanced pedal choices, great work
Man, josh smith is SO inspiring! Great.. now I have to get back to work instead of melting into goop from his amazing tone 🤤 and You’re the man dan! Great work!!
Only watched 30 secs and already stoked for the rest... thanks Dan and Josh! Ace
Josh's board has some incredible sounds, but I'm pretty sure he can make anything sound great. Loved this vid, two really nice guys and lots of wonderful playing.
I'll never need anything like this and I'm obsessed with keeping my pedalboard as small as possible, but I do love seeing these "super-boards" being put together. Having said that about keeping my board small, my current board is 14.5" wide, 9.5" deep and holds 8 mini pedals plus a 2-channel, 75w amplifier (solid state of course!). It doesn't make me play as well as Josh though sadly!
Hail kings of tone and Masters of Fretboards.Our lady of electrical manipulation.Two masters of their crafts. Blown away, humbled and Inspired.
I was hoping TPS would do this episode. Saw Anderton's episode with my fingers crossed. Well done lads, looks and sounds epic
Master builder! Everything so tidy and well done. Amazing to watch.
Probably the most entertaining and inspiring board builds between Dan and Josh! I could watch the last one again repeatedly and now this one! Great sounds, great playing, great tips on all things pedals. Dan can work some magick indeed!
What a great board. Way to go, Dan and Josh. So much versatility.
I never expected someone so nice and humble to be so good.
glad I saw this before the show tonight! Love Dan's genuine gasps at the tone, and Josh not even knowing the mad lick he just played 😂
Oh My God! When Dan asked him if he'd use the tchula with the volante may have been the greatest guitar sound I've ever heard.
19:52 that second "YES" is the moment we all wait for when we rebuild our big pedalboards.
Josh Smith, provider of eargasms.
One of the most interesting pedal boards out there; an excellent choice of everything.
Another great great great board build ...josh plays amazing amazing what great tone sound
I love these pedal board builds and it doesn’t get more epic than josh smith who’s so passionate about the sounds on his board not to mention the killer playing!
Two legends.
Simply incredible! Loved every second of it!
Another fantastic job by Master Dan!
fantastic build by Dan for a fantastic guitar player.
Josh plays cool stuff. Every line is a phrase. He is a master musician. Dan made that crazy pedal monstrosity work and sound great. I wish I had a G2 :-)
Saw Josh Smith last night at The Borderline, all this work into sound pays off as I've never heard such a great guitar sound. Been to gigs since 1991 when I was wee but a child, never had such a true sound as this. Awesome........
wouldn't it be :"but a wee child", instead of wee but a child?
Great board and brilliant playing as always Josh buddy! know you having a blast on the tour with crewmaster Dudley! Fantastic build as always Dan !
usually dont love board build shows. except when you are building Josh Smiths board. Then I really really really love them. cheers
Wow, awesome video. I need an Echo Plexi. Fantastic playing and always great watching Dan work. Thank you for making my two hour commute so much better with your awesome videos.
Most excellent! Thanks for posting.
Sounds great! What a pedal board
Love watching two consummate professionals with a love of music excited about sonic possibilities. And that Myriad Fuzz... oh my gooodness!
So good! Both Dan and Josh
Love the Little Richard t-shirt Josh wore at the end. I was born and raised in Macon, Georgia.
I never get tired of this kind of videos ...
I had the honour of seeing josh at brecon on the 23! He and the band were mind blowing my good! Has to be one of if not the best guitarist walking this earth! The board looked and sounded amazing!! 🤘🤘
Missed Mick in this one ! killer Strat tones from Josh, he really changes his playing I have to say I have massive respect for Dan, what a humble mountain of knowledge this man is. TPS is the Guitar Tech based medium we've all been waiting for. I look forward to seeing you guys just grow more and more, I'd love to see a Huber or Collings or dare I say a Fender CS factory tour with you guys!!!
Dan, thank you for filming this! So awesome! Would love to see a diagram of the signal flow/loops to get a solid understanding of the signal flow. It would help me think out my board for whenever I get a switcher.
Just got back to Norfolk yesterday after travelling to Bristol to watch Kirk and Josh... Did Josh's masterclass too. Awesome weekend and both of them sounded incredible. Good work on that board sir.
Dan's build + Josh's playing = Incredible Vlog
The Tones are Awesome.
Man I love Josh. What a monster
I love seeing Josh on your show, he's almost (almost) as passionate about pedals as you guys are ;)
Seeing the MIDI switching you've built into this board I'd love to see some shows on how it's all done... IN/OUT/THRU and how you assign channels etc to each device. Great work Dan.
Great episode!! Thank you
Awesome show.
I agree with you Dan. That little digital TC flashback pedal does sound frigging mighty!
Priceless, awesome
Informative and awesome!
Great episode guys!!!! Saw Josh not too long ago here in Austin Tx. At Antones.
He is just a beast of a guitar player. Saw him the day before at another place here with David Grissom. Seeing those two together was just incredible.
Love these types of videos!!!
That's one tidy board Dan. I'm impressed. Josh I dig your music. I first heard you with Raphael, found out who you were, and then heard the rest. As long as you're playing I'll keep listening.
Dan @6:32 reminds me so much of Chris Farley interviewing Paul McCartney on SNL back in the day. "Do you ... do you remember the Beatles? ... Awesome." Love the humility.
Amazing player, amazing wirer-er and the purveyors of making good music.
That is an epic board. Probably costs more than a decent used small car, but Josh seems to make use of every pedal he has put on it, so no money wasted.
He really had a vision for what he wanted here, and you can really see and hear that he is more than pleased with the result.
Good job to both Josh and Dan here.
...and man that guy is such a gifted player. He is among the top 3 blues players at the moment.
Nice playing!
Saw and heard this board in action tonight. Josh is just amazing. See him if you get the chance!
Holy moly! I wonder whats harder, playing josh's licks or remembering how to use his board? Awesome stuff! Great job again dan!
I really love this kind of videos!! The only info i think we miss, is the weight of the finished pedalboard, but already loving it!!
Love videos like these! Thanks D&M!
Thank D for this one - I was in bed sick for most of it!
That Pedal Show - Hope you’re feeling better, Mick!
YES Ive waited for this ❤️❤️
