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 ;-)
After a hard days work, I love coming home to watch Chappers videos with a nice hot coffee. Bought soooo many items thanks to your reviews Rob. Good luck with little Theo coming on along! best wishes to you and Nat.
Hello everyone, I would just like to inform you that I am the first comment, thus meaning i'm better than all of you and my life is significantly improved!
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.
"Oh my but that little country boy can play" - well done to all three. Just shows that not only are the pedals good, but what a difference the fingers make too!
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)
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
these guys have Pioneer ed the 2.0 customer input based salesmanship as well as mad beneficial advertisement and suggestive selling to help u figure out what u wanna buy. nice. congrats
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
"3 different guitar players playing 3 completely different styles of music" Which was completely true? Yes Rob and Bea are in the same band but they were playing different styles here ;)
Holy shit Bea, good job on staying on the diet, bro. It was so cool to meet you both here last August! I'm getting you more Minnesotan beer the next time you come!
All you guys sounded great... I really enjoyed Rabea's set, not just for the aggressiveness, but the ambience was fantastic! Can't wait to visit Anderton's in March, looking forward to trying a Chapman(lefty please)... Cheers!
Always loved the sound of a telecaster. Sold my original Squier to help with buying the Les Paul I'm using now. But I know if I get the money I'll be getting a Fender for sure
i really enjoyed this video i think the county guy really changed the dynamic and i actually enjoyed robs contribution here well done guys and awesome value pedals.
You can see my guitar in this video! My Tele hanging on the wall! I'm still blown away about the fact Rob has been in my local guitar shop, love riff city so much.
Thanks for sharing this with all of us out here in cyberspace. Great playing, equally great commentary. Incredible 'Albert Lee/hybrid-picking ', Mr. Rodman!
Bea: Has top of the range Strymon Delay and Reverb pedals, uses them to sound epic. Also Bea: Uses £90 worth of delay and reverb pedals to sound epic! Truly a master of all he commands, props Mr Massaad!!
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,
All great playing, Kurts country playing quality chickin pickin lickin’ ‘Twangsville’ 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.
kick ass kurt! havent heard your music in a long while and im more a metal guy but man. rob and bea have you on their heels if music were a competition.
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 ;-)
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 hey rob, you're the man!
Kurt is a master of his craft. Great player. Glad he got to show off a little bit.
Rob Chapman you ain't wrong there haha good video guys
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!
Is this a re upload video Chapper's.
Kurt Rodman's playing was absolutely unreal!
Incredible guitarist! And I'm not usually a country music fan, but I love to hear his guitar work.
And this was without compression. You can tell he missed it.
Niall O'Brien and how about the voice of the man. !!!
Martin Krauser didn't he say he rarely uses compression?
Opposite way around. He said he uses it a lot, but in moderation.
Jesus, the guy on the telecaster is a BEAST.
Indeed. I'm not a country fan by any means but...DAYUM! His tone & technique are really something.
Johnny Hiland should be next stop
I don't really care for Country Music. But I just became an instant Kurt Rodman fan!
Completely agree Lenny
100% agreed.
Chris Klassen Me too! Skilled, tasteful, and classy. And...I love tele's!
You need to listen too old school country, you will fall in love..
Country is the last true songwriting discipline. It’s all about a story in country.
I thought Bea's tone was really cool. His style of playing is also amazing.
SheepHair my dank are not memes?
samB What?
I also felt Bea's tone was monumentally beautiful. Rodman's playing ability was also notable!
Bea's tone and riffs in this demo alone gave me goosebumps. This man is insane.
SheepHair I
Boy that country guy kicks ass!!
A suprise to see you here
Yeah he does!
when bea started playing i just sighed - just an amazing player .
Everything about Bea's playing is amazing, so easy to listen to.
Rabea's intro was so tasty I've already come back to replay it 8 times
Kurt is amazing... Completely blown away.
Kurt Rodman...Oh my!! I'm definitely gonna check out more from this guy!
Kurt seems like the kinda guy I'd want to talk to over a beer, and he's a right good guitarist to boot :)
After a hard days work, I love coming home to watch Chappers videos with a nice hot coffee. Bought soooo many items thanks to your reviews Rob. Good luck with little Theo coming on along! best wishes to you and Nat.
all you need now is Rob's coffee review.
I know nothing of music theory but I love the way Bea throws weird chords in the middle of chugging.
and 10:05 goes a bit sitar :)
Country dude's playing has bags of charisma. Great stuff all round.
This guy's country playing is way off the fucking charts.
wow.
Hello everyone, I would just like to inform you that I am the first comment, thus meaning i'm better than all of you and my life is significantly improved!
Pinhead Larry damn im kinda jealous
Yeah? I once touched a girl.
I could have had the first comment, as I was the 3rd person to click on the video, but why does that matter in the slightest?
SZCZERZO KŁY family doesn't count
samB savage
I LOVED Bea's sound SO MUCH. Especially the beginning with all the reverb.
I love it when someone comes along and disrupts markets with a high quality product that undercuts everyone on price.
Woooo. That ole boy Kurt can pick!
I love your videos! I watch a bunch of them every single night! Keep up the fantastic work!
Thanks dude, I appreciate that ;-)
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.
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
Probably my favorite video of Bea's playing. Killed it!
I love videos like this. Reminds me of hanging out with my buddies goofing off with gear
not a country fan, but I love Kurt’s play style, he sounded fantastic!
I absolutely loved what Bea was doing with the reverb and delay! it sounded like Dorje and he seemed very comfortable playing these pedals
Jack of all trades, master of TONE!
Awesome! Awesome playing! Sounds excellent to me, very impressive, thanks!
I liked Rob’s tone. Kurt was amazing! But it was what Bea played that kept playing over and over again in my head. Excellent!
Rabea's ambient stuff was STUNNING! Amazing tones
"Oh my but that little country boy can play" - well done to all three. Just shows that not only are the pedals good, but what a difference the fingers make too!
Bea's tone at 9:00, are you kidding!?!? So good. That whole board costs less than a single Strymon pedal.
Immediately, I'd have gone King of Blues, Dry Martini, Tiny Spring, Tape Machine
kurt's faces are awesome lololol.....hes a great player but he seem so shy too :)
I had to go back and listen to Rabea's riffs, hoho shit...sounds great
I would like Kurt to narrate my life.

i pulled my hair off when bea was playing
Best of luck to you both on the arrival of the little man.
Great video guys love the addition of the country view and what a nice guy...

the country guy just beats the shit out of the others ,wow!
Nick TheParanoid Just no, superb yes, beats the shit....nope
Agreed. That is actually what seperates the good from the great is that kind of playing. Nothing to cover up mistakes
these guys have Pioneer ed the 2.0 customer input based salesmanship as well as mad beneficial advertisement and suggestive selling to help u figure out what u wanna buy. nice. congrats
"I'm gonna pick 4 guitarists out of completely defferent genres" *picks 3 guitarists including 2 from the same band*
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
Yeah, and since he is now so skinny, I guess it is fair to count him double. Cheers!
He said 3 guitarists mate.
"3 different guitar players playing 3 completely different styles of music" Which was completely true? Yes Rob and Bea are in the same band but they were playing different styles here ;)
So many thumbs up and it isn't even what was said. That says a lot.
All the best Chappers!! killed the rig...cant wait to see that new baby of yours!
Bea's ambient style was gorgeous, Kurt's playing just made me jealous in a good way haha.
Awesome video. I don't see the point in having both the Model M and the Golden Plexi. They are the same thing, one just has a boost.
Holy shit Bea, good job on staying on the diet, bro. It was so cool to meet you both here last August! I'm getting you more Minnesotan beer the next time you come!
All you guys sounded great... I really enjoyed Rabea's set, not just for the aggressiveness, but the ambience was fantastic! Can't wait to visit Anderton's in March, looking forward to trying a Chapman(lefty please)... Cheers!
Always loved the sound of a telecaster. Sold my original Squier to help with buying the Les Paul I'm using now. But I know if I get the money I'll be getting a Fender for sure
i really enjoyed this video i think the county guy really changed the dynamic and i actually enjoyed robs contribution here well done guys and awesome value pedals.
i got from riff city.......and it came with a hand written thank you from Barb..........now that is service..........hapy 2017 to you too
Useful and fun. Especially liked hearing Kurt's experience with stacked humbuckers. I hadn't heard that before and it makes perfect sense, thanks!
Rabeas improv is nice as hell
Great vid--really enjoyed it! You Brits are gracious hosts to us Yankees. Special relationship and all. Phenomenal players for all three genres.
Another 4 years later post love it and still my favourite rebea ambience tone
You can see my guitar in this video! My Tele hanging on the wall! I'm still blown away about the fact Rob has been in my local guitar shop, love riff city so much.
oh my god these reverend guitars in the backround!! love them
Thanks for sharing this with all of us out here in cyberspace. Great playing, equally great commentary. Incredible 'Albert Lee/hybrid-picking ', Mr. Rodman!
Bea’s bit is f*cking awesome
I love a tape echo, it doesn't interfere with what you are playing and that tele sounds awesome
I just bought a Model M last week and that thing is a beast. It will be my main distortion pedal from now on.
There is not other word for it, that dude shreds. Way out of my taste lane, but I sure as hell can appreciate his talent.
Kurt doin Minnesota proud!
The TELECASTER is an amazing guitar.
Im still coming back to this years later for rabeas improv.
What a great demo! Love Bea's clean stuff man. So ambient.
Bea: Has top of the range Strymon Delay and Reverb pedals, uses them to sound epic. Also Bea: Uses £90 worth of delay and reverb pedals to sound epic!
Truly a master of all he commands, props Mr Massaad!!
Amazing video. I would love to see some more of this style. What I mean is the most interesting part was after the session, hearing your discussion.
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.)
I skipped straight to the tele player, not disappointed.
Holy shit, Mr. Rodman sounds so amazing!
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 !

Got to keep looking forwards though . Great work fantastic video Joe.👍😆🤘
When is the results for Xmas Kemper Competition coming?
That guy was a sick guitarist
love seeing how different players use a reeeeeeeg
really interesting to hear the thoughts behind the choices and playing styles (also props to you 3 for your immense skills).
I still flick thrue this video to see rebea my good he plays ambient sounds good my favourite style with the rock metal with it
Love your videos rob, really helpful and entertaining keep it up lad :)
Rabea's playing is beast
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,
This is an awesome video! Please make more videos using this format, it's a really good idea. Well done!!
WoW Kurt smoked them both nice work on the tele so cool.
Love your channel. This is such a cool idea for a pedal video!
Rabea steals the show, very creative.
Rabea gets the award for best use of delay and reverb. He should do a video on it.
All great playing, Kurts country playing quality chickin pickin lickin’ ‘Twangsville’
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.
kick ass kurt! havent heard your music in a long while and im more a metal guy but man. rob and bea have you on their heels if music were a competition.
Everybody was awesome, However different style. you all are great. Thank You
Kurt's flannel is fire!
Bea needs to find a song to put his riff into ASAP. The moment the plexi came on I lost it. Fantastic sound.
All three demonstrations were mind blowing. The second one was pure orgasmic bliss.
Rest easy Kurt
Great video and fantastic idea to bring kurt on. Wonderful and diverse, really hoping to see more of that.
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 ;-)
They did one already..
Would be cool if you could do a collective of vids just using Tone City pedals, creating different genres. Like a 'Tone City does....'
Kurt's voice is so nice
Rabea's set up was amazing?! 😲 It sounded heavenly!
