    Apologies for some of the sound quality in this video - just a few technical issues... enjoy watching myself and Bea get slayed by one of Minnesota's finest country guitarists ;-)

      Rob Chapman, that man isn't a fucking human, on top of that I personally despise country music for the most part and I'm still stunned by his playing!

    I thoroughly enjoyed watching all three of you. This was a great demo of the pedals, guitars, and the styles. Loved the comparison. It's all in the fingers then. It's almost like the pedals are just the air around the players. Thanks guys.

  • @matthewocallaghan3062
    @matthewocallaghan3062 Před 7 lety +1

    Bea's tone with the first 3 pedals reminds me of the intro to You Burn First by Alexisonfire. Dark as fooook. Really cool demonstration

  • @jburdsinfuse

    Bea's tone at 9:00, are you kidding!?!? So good. That whole board costs less than a single Strymon pedal.

  • @PrinceWesterburg
    @PrinceWesterburg Před 7 lety +3

    Thats made me realise that in 3rd of a centtury playing in the UK and hanging around London music shops I've never met a country musician. Shame, I've just discovered bluegrass country picking - its up there with Gypsy Jazz as something fast and technical you can play that polite audiences want to hear! :o)

    • @rickeyryan303
      @rickeyryan303 Před 6 lety +1

      If you ever come to the states, and want to hear some fast picking or chicken picking which is the name, you need to come to Kentucky, Tenn, Nashville, South Carolina.. There are so many insanely great bluegrass and country musicians ... So much talent in the south.. And as a bonus you will not find the nicest people anywhere else.. The south gets a bad name but it's all non sense, everyone get's alone no matter cred or skin colour , you will have some bad eggs, but you have bad eggs up North and everywhere you go in the world.. When i first meet my wife, she is from Isle of Man, but lived most of her life in Luton.. But when she first was going move to the states to live here with me, her family did everything to get her not to move her because lived in the south and they where brainwash to think the KKK was running around burning crosses and hanging blacks, and that she would get shoot by some crazy guy. It really bummed me out and made me feel like crap and depressed me.. Because it just isn't true, even the whole gun thing, where i live the state and town more guns than people and everyone carries here and we have the lowest crime and murder rate here than ever other state and most of the world.. Funny thing is my wife, who never even seen a real gun City girl from the U.K now carries a pistol on her daily, she hated gun's and would tell me she was so glad that the U.K had so many regulation on the.. Fast forward 10 years she owns more than i do and carries everyday.. Anyway sorry i went off , she is back in Luton visting family and i am bored .. Have a great day..

    Here lately I have started to come to appreciate country music from an actual instrumental standpoint. And this man was.. wait for it... instrumental in that... Amazing guitar playing and excellent presentation by all 3 of you fellows! I think i'd probably add the Angel Wing in there too just for that chorus sound but if you dial the Tape Machine back it almost accomplishes the same thing i'd be looking to get out of the Wing

    • @BrainyBoy1200
      @BrainyBoy1200 Před 7 lety +49

      I'm guessing that Bea counts cause, what he does with Toska is totally different to what he does with Dorje, so you get: hard rock, tech prog metal and country. Even though Bea and Chappers do almost the same thing in Dorje, so you do have a point there

    • @shorerocks

  • @chuwy2k
    @chuwy2k Před 7 lety

    Wow! This is the cherry on the pie! Love it! 4 pedals that do everything. I told to all my friends about how you can sound good with descent pedals, not boutique expensive, a good mid range guitar and a Transtube® amp; it's about to adjust the knobs in very equalized way. I remember my old DOD FX-57 hard Rock distortion pedal when I tried to put everything in Max (volume, tone and drive) and I tried to sound like Metallica or G N' R and I got feedback everywhere in stead... (I was young and stupidly def.)

    As a total metal head I always enjoy Bea's licks and sound , amazing. Rob it was awsome to see you playing some slightly less gainy and more bluesy stuff, you have a very distinctive sound love it. Well Kurt was just brilliant I am getting right into my country guitar the oldder I get his sound was great ! He has totally convinced me that my next guitar purchase will be an American Tele either a standard or or a pro . Do not worry Rob I have just bought the very last Cap 10 Blackout from Andertons. Got to keep looking forwards though . Great work fantastic video Joe.👍😆🤘

    I watched this video and I was impressed. I already have a reverb pedal that meets my needs but ordered the other 3 from Riff City in Minnesota. Big thumbs up to Riff city. I wasn't so keen on the Golden Plexi but the Model M is absolutely fantastic, very versatile too. The Tape Machine is all I would ever want in a delay pedal, noiseless and super cheap. I need to stop watching these videos, it's getting too expensive. Watching Rob with the Victory amps........ it won't be long till there is one of those in my house,

    Thought the ambient tones Rabea got and used sounded excellent for the budget pedals used, just shows how good the cheaper budget pedals can sound and you don’t always have to spend hundreds of Wii’s per pedal to create great tones.

    You guys are just fantastic. Love your vibe. Banter cheered me up no end. Thanks guys. Oh and nice guitar work.... But you knew that. 😊

    Hey Rob, could you and Lee do a $500 or less guitar shootout? A friend of mine wants to learn to play, but only has $500 to spend. You can bring Professor Bypass along if you wish ;-)

    Would be cool if you could do a collective of vids just using Tone City pedals, creating different genres. Like a 'Tone City does....'
