How many people just tuned in to get a listen to Pete's new Suhr?..... ;-)
Great demo as always Pete
I just tuned in to get a listen to Pete Himself!!! even if he played a Squier! xD
I’ve already got an Iridium. This makes me want to sell mine because mine will never sound this good 😅
I thought it was Noel Gallagher. Almost left, but much better! awesome
I just got mine last Friday. I played through it for two hours straight when I got home. This thing does everything Strymon says it does and more. I cannot say enough good things about it. Now I can play through headphones with ultra-realistic tones. Get one, you will NOT regret it.
I have a Riverside love it. The EV5 opens it right up.
Currently got a Joyo cab sim.
But I'll get one later.
Robert Hurless so it’s last in your chain ?
@@rodericktompkins7882 generally yes.
roderick tompkins no, I put time based effects after it. Just like an effects loop.
Yeah I got me one. It's great. Love that I can use the headphone output to send the signal to my 2 inputs of my audio interface and the stereo outputs to time based effects and then into the other 2 inputs of the audio interface and that way I can mix the dry signal with the one mixed with the delays and reverb. Its a great option. Great pedal.
That opening track is haunting but beautiful .
Sorry, Haunting AND beautiful .
Yes, sure the Strymon seems like an awesome pedal and you actually got me interested in it. But I have been watching this channel for a while now and I just have to say it for once: I'm mainly here for the playing. Pete, thank you for inspiring and motivating me.
You put so much work into these videos. So much respect for you sir. Great playing and demo/explanation of the pedal.
Best demo of this pedal I have seen until now! Great one!!!
Love the bones of the demo tune! The dynamics of the composition really help expose the gear’s strengths. Playing is awesome as always too!
I bought one about a year and a half ago on the strength of this review and love it.
Spectacular song writing Pete! I love this song. Love you and your videos, thank you bro!!!
The opening solo was excellent.
Wonderful note choices with great feel.
I absolutely see me getting one of these to record with.... great video, tone and playing Pete.
We're spoiled for gear these days, what a time to be a musician!
TheRealReTox spoiled for CZcams content as well.
And the tons of gear that we have now are all obsessed with trying to emulate the few pieces of gear that the previous generation was "stuck" trying to make all that iconic music with.
@@rt-uh6mt I've just ordered a digital modelling amp in the hope that it emulates just one good amp tone, then it'll be set & forget. I promise!
What a time for a revolution! Let's get rid of MIDI and come up with something far better than these PC, CC, effects switcher complications. Just look at your mobile phone. Apps and mobile OS systems are light years ahead of the guitar effects industry when it comes to user interaction. What a time to be a musician and witness the next innovation!
Imagine Hendrix still alive in 2020, with a board full of chase bliss stuff and so on, that would be interesting
I began talking about a Strymon modeler years ago on The Gear Page. I'm so glad they finally released one. Not at all what I expected from them, but it's a sensible way to approach it. And of course, you make it sound amazing.
Fantastic playing! You manage to impress me again and again
great intro music, beautiful melody
Such a great composition Pete!! 👌👍
Love that you got the hybrid headstock on the suhr! Gorgeous guitar. Sick demo as always.
As usual, amazing demo. Really amazing song and great to see how you used all the models AND built in room settings. I love mine and will be gigging it with an HXFX and some choice pedals up front.
Thanks!
Well, I had asked on Facebook when we’d get to hear the red Suhr and here’s my answer! Great playing as always!
I've watched pretty much all the reviews/demos of the iridium...and this one is by a country mile, the most helpful and useful, many thanks
Thanks!!! Glad it was helpful
Awesome demo like usual. That song was pretty nice.
I absolutely love the fretboard on your red Suhr. Great demo as always.
I just bought an iridium to use at home . WOW! all in that little box? Nice opening, your playing is always a treat.
That opening guitar piece was some of your best stuff. Beautiful!
Status report:
I purchased an Iridium back in 2020, for those times (more often than not) where the gig preference was low -> no stage volume. Churches, clubs, even larger venues.
The Iridium has not only held up beautifully, but it's become my solution to volume requests. Nothing beats feeling the air push behind you w/ an amp.... but because the Iridium takes pedals so well, I can gig anywhere with my preferred pedalboard and get 99.9999999% of my "feel" and tone compared to my amps. I hate interfaces, it's quite literally an amp in a box that goes on your board. Get you one.
Forget the pedal, love the new haircut! best of luck in London, can't wait for those videos t00!
Every video man... so good.. really dig the AC vibe on this one🎛
great playing! the iridium sounds great too!
mix of intro track was amazing through headphones
Glad u like it!!
THANX PETE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS VIDEO.
Thanks Bill!
Hey Pete, great video. Composition, technique and tone all class.
Thanks!
I just bought the Iridium last week - the Vox is incredible - the other 2 are absolutely great - I don't play metal, you're probably right about it. I'm a new follower and love your jaw-dropping 70's 80s leads and chord changes with 2020 equipment- all right up my alley. You're awesome - remind me of Joe Perry - I did some stage work for Joe Perry Project twice- 2 weekends each - and was right next to him on stage behind the PA watching - you have a lot in common
Loving the new Suhr and, as always, sounds and ecc Fantastic!
I love mine, I love the simplicity of it and sounds incredible.
can i use it with my frfr headrush? is it kinda like a little amp where i can use pedals to color just like an amp?
"Option Anxiety" is exactly the problem I have with my POD Go and Helix-style products. A gazillion options too many. Let's face it, the gazillion options are just options of the basic three amps anyway, right? Every amp out there is a version of either a Fender, Vox, or Marshall. The Strymon Iridium simply reduces the options down to the most basic choices, brilliantly, and there are KNOBS you can tweak on the fly!
Thank youuuu,
The only person who knows to dial it back whether gear or style or anything has first taken it way too far,
And I 100 percent agree
I had helix stomp and often used different presets, but never once did I create my own patch or dive the menus or do hardly anything the thing was capable of,
Simplicity is best
give me a few options with easy tactile controls
Tweak a few little things here and there, master the controls after a year or so of use and it becomes second nature to manipulate the thing on the go
at the flip of a switch
at a moments notice,
This type of workflow is so crucial to creativity and fun, I can't stress this enough,
Sounds great. Love the new guitar and tasty playing!
OMG!!!!! Mr. Thorn does it again!!! Great job!!!
Great! Yeah I love my Iridium, I think the "round" model really takes my drive pedals great too, sounds and feel like the real thing
Nice riffs, Pete!
Thanks for good video, great demo!
LOVE THIS SONG PETE, YOU ARE AWESOME!
Love the tone!
Nice Product. Excellent demo.
"You Don't Need To Read The Manual" ~ I like it already...lol. Xclnt demo Pete . . . Thx :-)
another fantastic demo ,,cheers from australia
Thanks Pete..
Great demo and fabulous playing
Thanks
I love Pete's demos. I've said this before, and I'll say it again, you could take Pete's demos and combine them into a playlist and have a great album. Suffice to say, I've just purchased "Guitar Nerd" and will have this on my car stereo tomorrow morning. Can't wait... :)
Exactly. I listened to one of Pete's albums, and I realized I like his demos better.
Sounds Fantastic. Love your choice-of-notes on the intro guitar solo. Channeling your inner Robben Ford or Larry Carlton? Very . . . Steely Dan-ish ( meant as huge compliment ). Happy New Year brother from NYC.
Thank u!
I just wanted you to know that I finished listening to your Lp “Guitar Nerd” and have now listed ALL my guitar gear up on Reverb for sale...lol Love Your Work Man! Keep On Rockin’ In The Free World....🎸🔊🎶🤘🏻
Thanks for listening man!
Great job, Pete! WAY cool.
Great playing man
BEAUTIFUL song!
I have a feeling this is a proof of concept for a bigger product. I've heard great things but can't get my hands one on yet. Thanks for the demo!
@Luke Robinett I"m expecting something in the Blue Sky, Timeline, Mobius Family. Midi controlled. etc etc.
Yo ya no entro por revisión de los pedales, solo lo hago por la magia de las interpretaciones de este genio, como toca este tipo...
Loved seeing your take on this one Pete. Btw, like the candy apple red w tortoise. One of my favorite combos.
Howdy - are you on Instagram? I’ve joined and find it much easier than CZcams to share what’s happening. Hope all is well, Happy New Year!
@@bbmade Hey BB! Happy New Year man! I've been concentrating on YT but have thought of using Instagram for "micro-promotion" stuff. Pete and Rick use it to great effect. It also would fit with some new projects. I'll look for you over there.
five watt world - Sounds good, lots of videos in the works here for CZcams but it’s really easy to post little things along the way there.
At last, someone playing actual tuneful music to show off the unit , my Iridium will be here tomorrow, I can't wait. 😊
Will I ever be as good as Pete? No
But will I ever be able to dial in gear like Pete? Again no.
But will I be inspired every single time I hear him play? Hell yeah!
Will he make me broke with his awesome gear reviews? Possibly😀
You’re too kind, I can never be you either! You be the best Blaine you can be
Just bought one! thank you!
Hi peter coming to see the classic rock show in London on the 17th January, good luck!
Super inspired
Awesome stuff Pete
Thanks!
Don't know what I want more that Suhr or the Iridium! Wait...........yes, the Suhr! We always get a super great Demo, and I've been waiting for this one! Cheers!!🤘🎸👍
Great tune!
This fretboard and this neck on the Suhr are just gorgeous! Is it a new one Pete?!
First demo of this thing that actually made me think about buying it, the others have all sounded thin (so there's the PT tonemeister in action!). As always, I'm here as much for the demo song as the unit itself, but I can see it's uses. And yes, "option paralysis" on most modellers means you'll spend less time playing, and more time "menu-ing", I know..... :O)
I love mine! It takes pedals great also 👍
Wow. More killer playing. Love it :-)
Hey Pete - that track is a keeper for full development on the next Pete Thorn album.
Also - I got a 2 min Strymon ad before the video. Bonus.
Love it! I wanted JTM45 in place of Plexi. I’ll have to look back through the music and see - maybe Plexi is really better.
cool track Pete... I'm not a gear snob by any means, but these tones sound pretty warm and real to my ears...
Great demo, thanks! How about a new episode of 'How to be a pro musician'? Loved those series!
Thank God. Finally someone who turns the room knob up! It makes this pedal.
Awesome intro...beautiful.
Never clicked on a video so fast lol... great demo Pete!!!
Man Pete, I feel something every time I hear you play. It's never boring. These JFET devices are sounding really beautiful. This, Orange tone butler and super crush, etc. Is there anything like these that have a metal sound for DI or in-ear small packages?
Perfect all round mate - Rudi in Sydney
I recently invested in a TONEX pedal ... something I really regret. The 1st pedal was physically defective, and the next two pedals had some sort of non-fixable software issues. For the vast majority of the time I "Owned" a TONEX Pedal (March of this year through late August of this year) I did not have a working pedal to use and was either waiting for a call from IKM "Tech Support" or I was waiting for a replacement pedal. This was a VERY unpleasant experience. When the pedal worked, it sounded very good ... however, I had a 100% failure on their TONEX pedals. This Strymon Iridium looks like a good alternative to the TONEX pedal, however, the reliability and accuracy of any piece of equipment I invest in must be very good, or I don't need it. Thanks for another good video Pete ... keep 'em coming.
Pete... that intro tune, man. I said god damn! Beautiful.
Thanks!!!!
Cool tune!!!
excited to see what Strymon is cooking for Bass modeling!
That suhr. Holy shhhhh....the playing , writing is worthy. Indeed.
Great video. I'd love to see how the Iridium compares to cheaper options like the mooer Radar.
Great overview Pete. Thanks. But the track...wow. Really awesome and inspiring to me. Rock on with yo bad self Mr. Thorn!
Great demo as always. The new guitar is looking good also. I like the idea of the iridium but it would probably need a lower price point for me to pull the trigger.
Back to the drawing board......
Fantastic stuff dude.
Beautiful intro!
Lovin the candy apple red!
That Suhr is amazing.
The new guitar looks and sounds completely awesome dude.And the video was especially sharp this time :)
The best joe I’ve heard in years
Killer sounds Pete thorn.
YES! Put at least a boost before the Iridium. Makes a ton of difference.
Playing clean? Use clean boost. Playing dirty? Use some overdrive (balance gain levels between the pedals). Makes a big difference.
Great demo of what this thing can do. Your demo has an Incubus feel to me.
I got mine a couple weeks ago and I absolutely love it. Great demo as always man
That track was smooth
Nice looking red machine.
Sound like the solo at the end of the demo that was done on your Dual fusion pedal demo years ago!!
Looks like a cool product. I'm still playing with my Boss Katana for modelling. Wish there was a setting I could get to make me play as good as Pete! Just Downloading Pete Thorn II this afternoon. Can't wait to listen to it. BTW: Pete do you edit your own videos?
The Vox blew me away but maybe I didn't appreciate it to begin with - the Fender sounds great - I almost instantly forget that I was not playing through an amp - the Marshall - not sure yet - I've only had it for 10 days. I got rid of my Pod Go and got this in its place and won't look back - I love it
Hey Pete awesome video as always! I think Iridium sounds great! I don’t know if ya know, but Humboldt Electronics pedals just made The Simplifier! It’s very similar to the Iridium, have the same amps models, but the big difference is that the Humboldt Simplifier it’s 100% analog! Man, it would be so great to see a comparison and let us know your thoughts!!! I’m trying to decide which to go for! 🙏🤙
