- Pedals are a HUGE part of your setup and sound! They can take you from sounding amateur to sounding professional, but there are so many options to choose from. So how do you know where to start? Well, that's what The Beginner's Guide To Guitar Pedals is all about, helping you understand which guitar pedals you should purchase first!
A reverb pedal? A compressor? Delay? Distortion? Modulation? And to add - What kind of reverb? What type of distortion? Is there an order in which I should purchase these? The short answer is, it depends. But that's what we're going to discover together.
If you want your guitar to sound more lush and rich then a reverb pedal might be your first purchase. If you're going for that Hendrix sound then maybe it's a distortion pedal you get. And if it's that U2 type delay that gets you inspired then you should probably start there. In this video, Ayla breaks down the basic kinds of pedals you might add to your setup and what they can do for you and your sound. In this way, you will find out exactly what guitar pedals you should buy and what adding effects to your playing can do for you!

in other words if you have a couple grand to drop you can really have some fun looking for the perfect tone?
Kirk laughed so hard at your joke, he’s just been taken away in a Whambulance
I could almost swear I heard him crying as they took him away: "Wah, wah, wah!"
This joke was somewah exquisite. Nice.
HAHAHAHA
😂😂
Good vid for the beginners. I used pedals back in the 80s.. I only use Marshall amps today and don't need pedals. Marshall today have reverb and all the distortion gain you will ever need. Only pedal I need is a chorus and it will be used only once in A while. Delays and Flangers and all the restore toys for kids. Marshall today can play from country to hard core metal from the one amp. In old days we needed a few amps and a lot pedals to cover all the sounds we wanted. OLD Marshall s sounded good then .. but needed dist pedals for hard core metal . Today buy a new Marshall and that's all you need. I like her vids. Only thing I would do not recommend is buying a modeling amp. I played them all and owned a few don't buy them. You will spend way way too much time understanding them and playing with all the settings. You will constantly be trying to find the right sound and never get it. You will be trying to find a better sound . I won't have one ever agin. Spend more time in selections than practicing.
For beginners: multi effects pedal. Whether you intend to stick to a limited range or what a wide variety, it's a good way to determine the style and tone you want. It helps you pick individual pedals in future.
thanks gonna invest in this now
mooer ge100 i got its soo good
And you avoid cables of signals, power supplies etc, plus you can practice with headphones, and nowadays they are very affordable with great results.
any recommendations? i heard of a boss 20 or something i think
@@KaiserBruh Taste and Try before you buy and ideally on your own guitar and amp.
I’d get a cheap one second hand for the experience and if they have a power supply and case/bag/box try and get them included, start at the bottom and work your way up, …or not.
You’ll need at least one extra jack2jack instrument lead and if you can do a simple solder then get ones with resolderable cable jacks and try and get coloured cables to avoid future confusion, also i’d avoid curly cables, i find them a real pain to coil up.
Single function pedal ? I’d choose a reverb first. But maybe that first choice should be a guitar computer/smart phone interface. Good luck 2U.
The first pedal I bought was a looper from Boss and man, that really changes the way you practice and takes your creativity on a whole other level. It remains my favourite pedal for sure.
Definitely recommend a looper pedal as the first pedal. Most starter amps have overdrive and maybe reverb and delay so you can start with those for FX but a looper pedal makes practice 100x more fun and productive.
Mine was distortion
Loopers are REALLY good as far as practicing and improvising goes. Very underrated. Fuck tone, you learn theory without even knowing it.
For sure
A Looper pedal is amazing for practice, it really helps with Timing and soloing over some chords. Lots of fun for anyones guitar journey
Talking: tender voice & smiling face
Playing: badass strumming & serious guitar face
That’s sick, love the demonstration and your dedication to the playing
I did catch your Kirk Whamet joke and as a dad, I thought it was solid! Nice work.
Thank you for your videos. My kids have really enjoyed your music and I am just discovering you through your teaching.
i think trying to explain the joke and ake it look like a failed joke attempt is even funnier
I think the only one that is a true "must" is a looper pedal, because it's an essential practice tool.
agree
Can you put a looper pedal in front of an audio interface and run it into Amplitube?
@@moreglutesmoredudes9974 it won't work the same way loopers work while plugged into fx loop of the amp/modeler. Looper before interface will record dry sound of your guitar, so it won't work as intended for layering different tones while looping. In this order, it becomes a tool for setting up tones. You record a riff with a looper and then you can tweak tone on amplitube, while the looper plays the riff for you. But you can use software loopers and you can control them with MIDI footswitch if you have one.
@@johanndaart7326 didn’t understand any of the words but it looks like good advice 👍
Yeah I kinda wish I had a pedal for the processor I have I'm thinking it would come out both sides of the channel you can record a song on the looper station in stereo coming out both sides of the output of your Scarlet solo or what ever into both channels of the looper station
Please keep teaching! I like the way you break down music into the basics. Dang! I needed you years ago. You and your guitar are going to go far. Thank you for being such a pleasant guitar teacher.
Great video! One thing I wanted to mention is that a lot of metal tones from popular metal bands are actually the result of a cranked amp with MODERATE distortion and a tubescreamer hitting the front of it with the volume maxed and the gain all the way down. You can also used 2 pedals, one being a distortion pedal (moderate gain) and a tubescreamer (volume maxed, gain down) to achieve the same thing. Just wanted to mention that. It took me years 10 years to figure that out and I spent most of that time using distortion pedals to try and emulate that sound and most of the time it just didn't sound very good unless you get a really good one.
Yep, works great. I can get some crazy chunky distortion with just a small amount of fuzz from my wah pedal and overdrive .
I understand what your saying and it's true. But today if you simply buy a new Marshall it's all you need. A Marshall a good guitar chord and your guitar. It's all you need and you will have all the gain, dist, reverb you will ever need. And the clean on them are amazing. The 1 amp will do it all.
Yep, good point. According to Steve Vai's video, a distortion pedal is best going into a clean amp, whilst an overdrive pedal is best going into an amp with gain. And the overdrive is the better choice out of the two for solos as it sings more. Accoring to Phillip McKnights video: If you combine overdrive + phaser + delay + gain on the amp, you get that ultimate bluesy solo sound.
The essential 4 pedals according to Phillip McKnight are: wah, overdrive, modulation and delay. But the idea he says is, you can swap them out with a wildcard pedal and experiment for fun and get the sound you like, e.g. the delay for a reverb or the phaser for a chorus etc.
I’m interested what a solo sound, sounds like with overdrive + chorus + delay + gain on an amp in comparison to the modulation being a phaser.
I once saw a really good video on what are some good pedals to get, but of course it all depends on what sound you like: Crybaby mini wah, Boss Chromatic Tuner TU-3, Ibanez mini tube screamer, mxr mini phase 95, Boss DD-3, + a ditto looper.
I actually have a Boss rc-5, as I want drums and looper, and it is very good.
Thanks for the video Ayla, my first pedal was a Boss ch-1. I don't have a favorite pedal, but would say it is a combination of overdrive, modulation and delay. But my favorite pedal I have for rhythm guitar is the Boss DS-1.
Great advice. Thank you.
The first pedal I ever bought was a Phaser, since I love it's psychedelic sound.
And my favourite pedal now is my Boss RC-30. It's not only a nice effect pedal but a practice tool creativity exploder like no other thing for me
The explanation about the differences between different types of gain pedals in this video is very clear and concise. Thank you :)
Thank you. I have played bass and rhythm guitar for 20+ years and now trying leads and melodies. Your lessons are amazing.
Ayla, the first thing I want to say is that I'm so glad to have discovered your channel! You have cleared up and simplified things I have struggled to learn, even after 45 years of playing, the pentatonic scales are the best example of that!
And thank you for this fine video also! It can be a big headache for any player, beginning or advanced, pro or amateur, to decide on a particular pedal, and I credit you for cutting through all of the riff raff when it comes to pedal selection.
Now to answer your questions for commenters, my first pedal was a late 70's DOD Overdrive 250. I wish I still had it now. The overdrive was what I call "milkshake", thick, rich, and with flavor ( I mean clarity and definition ) standing out. I ran it straight into my first good amp, a Randall RG60, solid state, but it meant everything in the world to a 14 year old then. The reissue DOD Overdrive 250's, to me, are way too thin, tinny, and nowhere near what I had in my original one.
My favorite pedal now is a Radial ToneBone Hot British Distortion. It is tube powered, yes, it has to be plugged in, but the versatility I get from it is more than well worth that trouble. I can get a sweet, mild overdrive, all the way to bone crunching metal monster, and everything in between. They are hard to get now, a lot of them are in Japan, at premium prices, but mine isn't going anywhere!
Thank you once again for sharing your knowledge in a clear and concise way! I wish you all the best in your continuing musical journey, for you have certainly helped me with my own! :) :)
just want to say thank you, been looking at a load of guitar tutorials and I found them hard to understand as I have a couple issues and cant take information in easily. you explain things really gently and simply and I just wanna say I appreciate you :)
Awesome thanks! My first pedal was the MXR Phase 90. My next two were also MXRs, the Carbon Copy, and the M300 Reverb. They’re all brilliant. Next is an overdrive and a looper! Cheers!
Thank you for the great info, my first pedal was a Boss Blues Driver and my current favorite pedal is the Electro Harmonics Big Muff 🤘🎸
Holy cow I love that reverb pedal !!! Honestly pedals are the single reason I got an electric guitar 👌 the infinite amount of tones one could get is superb
Thanks Ayla ! You got me on the Loop Pedal ! Love it going to look into one ! Love the videos !
GT-100 was my first pedal. Its great use for everything even for my synths, voice etc.
i like the way you talk. it reminds me of how i talk. you make things very easy to understand for me with how clearly you speak and the like, laid back pacing. you dont speak slowly but its clear. i enjoy listening! thanks for teaching me abt pedals lol
I'm so glad you mentioned the all-in-ones. Some pedal people are snobby about it. I have a PodGo and I think it is awesome bang for your buck.
Those are just boomers who have a couple hundred gs stashed away.
My first pedal I bought in like 1980 was a Ibanez flanger. my favourite to use is the MXR 90. My board also has a chorus, delay, a mini wah simulator , a full tone 69 fuzz pedal ( like using as well ) and a equalizer. I use reverb, distortion and over drive gain on my tube amp, a Hughes and Kettner ! Great vid !
My first and still favorite pedal : Flanger (Boss BF-2), but a good harmonizer/pitch shifter is a serious rival.
It's incredible the many sounds you can get with that single pedal, the combinations are so numerous.
Love the raw footage of the flopped joke. Keepin` it real for us on the couch. Great pedal explanations. Please keep it coming. Great stuff!
Nice beginner's guide! Helps people get a good sound without breaking the bank. For the record my rig is like this:
Guitar->Hardwire Polyphonic tuner->Tumnus overdrive (nice buffer, good at the beginning of the chain)->Mooer Free Step wah->Banshee talkbox->Analog Delay->front of amp (I get most of my distortion from my amp).
In my loop, send->Zoom G3 multi effect for lots of special purpose time and modulation effects->TC Spark Boost for clean boost->Wampler Ethereal for always on reverb/delay->MXR 10 band EQ for crafting the overall tone->return.
Just remember folks it's not just the effects you use, it's where you put them (which Ayla does a good job showing), how you dial them in and, something people forget about, buffered or true bypass! Ideally you want a combo of both, Google for why. :)
Finally, if you're just starting out, buy the amp that has the best overall non-effected sound. You can always add effects later but getting a good basic sound is paramount. Don't buy an amp because it has more bells and whistles if another amp sounds better overall.
I actually began with an iRigHD & Amplitude. But now am into pedals. My first pedal is a Boss Blues Driver (it’s my favorite sound altering pedal); love the bluesy sound I get from it. My favorite pedal overall has to be my Ditto+ Looper. It had allowed me to improve my soloing exponentially.
Beautiful. Such a kind spirit. Thanks for sharing this content! My first pedal was an Ernie Ball volume pedal for an early zoom effects processor 30 years ago. Now looking for a first pedal for my daughter to go with her first guitar. Keep on keeping on, girl!
You have the perfect collection of guitars! All look and sound so unique ❤️
First pedal I bought was the Boss DS-1 distortion pedal, which served me alright as a teenager but I was never really that into it. My favorite pedal now is my Joyo Taichi, which is a cheap Zendrive clone. That pedal just produces the most satisfying tone that makes me want to solo all day
Hi Ayla ! Great job keep going on, my first pedal was the boss OD-1 & currently my favourites are boss JB-2 and EHX lil' big muff
My first pedal, bought on late 80s, was a Boss Heavy Metal HM-2, that I still have and works perfectly well, but my favourite pedal today is a Boss Blues Driver BD-2. The BD-2 is the overdrive that really fits my needs. Good video. Thank you!
Thank you for this! Helped me alot especially with your relaxed vibe!
My first pedal was an Electric Mistress by Electro Harmonix ,I wish I still had it!! My favorite is a Treble Booster Ranger, I don't use too many pedals now , My Mesa Tremoverb does most of what I need by itself! It helped by installing a Mercury Magnetics output and power transformer ! a Dual Rec on steroids!
Great presentation and audio quality, a credit to all involved. First pedal was a home made Wah and then a Zoom MS50 multi-effect pedal. I'm going to add a dual delay (probably a NuX) and some home made distortion/overdrive/fuzz pedals. The Zoom was a great introduction but I'd like the flexibility of individual effects. Fantastic playing by the way!
I really liked the delay pedal with the reverse delay. Thanks for sharing 👍
As a beginner, a modelling amp has been the best decision I could've made. It has all the effects I could ask for, I think they sound great (although somebody with a better trained ear would probably argue with me) and the whole thing cost about as much as a single higher end pedal.
I’m absolutely new to all things electric guitar, been playing bass for a few years and got a free guitar/interface from my old babdmates as a gift. It’s a ‘67 Danelectro/Scarlett 2i2 and I love them! I haven’t even put an ounce of thought into pedals and tone lol I’m just learning chords and theory but one day I’ll have a pedal board and I’ll be shredding!
You are amazing, Ayla. Keep up the great work. 👍 🎸
thank you for this video , and for explaining and demostrating what the pedals do , im looking into some pedals with more information thanks to you ,
When I was young (in the 80s) I built a small peddle board. Sounding like EVH was all that mattered to me! Now that I’m older, I have been playing with a Helix LT. However, I’m thinking of going back to a board. The Helix is definitely cool, but there’s something simplistically beautiful about peddles. And I think they probably sound better.
Really cool🙂 I started with a tiny Marshall amp that only had gain, tone, and volume lol. I then got a modeling vox amp and a whole new world opened. I was dialing in tones of songs I was learning. It’s so much better when you can get the correct tone. I believe the first pedal I bought was an mxr carbon copy. My favorite pedal currently is the ehx small stone🙂
A decent amp is very much worth the investment.
I think I had the same amp you had lol (the Marshall, I mean). This would have been Summer 1999. I thought it was the shit. Then I nearly blew the speaker from cranking it while trying so hard to be Joe Perry. 😂
First time watcher-enjoyed your playing a lot. so fluid and alive!
I'm 49 next week have played since I was 12 and have learned a bunch from you love it when you jam Hendrix keep up great work and thank you for your shows
My first pedal was a Boss Ds-1. That thing took me a long way before I replaced it with a Ds-2. But my overall favorite pedal I own now is probably my Big Muff
My first pedals were an MXR Distortion+, an Arion analog delay and an Arion chorus. I'm currently using a Friedman BE-OD distortion pedal, Boss Distortion DS 1X, Strymon DIG delay, MXR anolog chorus, and a Morley Power Wah/Volume pedal. All ran thru a Quilter Tone Block 202 and 4X12 Peavey 5150 cabinet. Amazing sound!
I own a mxr distortion. And in my opinion they sound great
Every time I've seen a show and one of the bands is running Quilters, they have always been the best sounding bands of the night
I just found your channel and have watched a few videos. I love it - you do an awesome job teaching and very pleasant to watch, keeping it simple, quick, understandable. I've been playing guitar for about 25 years and still am not very good, always feel like I'm missing something that makes it click and I think your channel will really help, at least inspire and motivate me to pick it up again. So thanks! Looking forward to checking out more.
For some reason I wasn't expecting Slayer... great job. Nice explanation of the different types of petals. Especially great for a beginner like me
The first pedal I got was the DS1 distortion pedal and then now my favorite pedal that I didn’t know how much I needed before is now the Dyna Comp from MXR
I found a DS-1 in my garage somehow as my first pedal. My friends kept telling me to get a compressor. Now its on 100% of the time
Volume pedal + HX Effects by Line 6 is what I would choose to get. That together with cables is somewhat around 750 (euro) or 780 (dollar). 100+ different tones and effects and the volym pedal because... I think it is underrated. And yes the HX effects has a tuner and compressor inside it. Pretty dope.
I have the Boss ME-80. I cannot be happier with it! Supremely recommended!
That's a good idea and cheaper than buying one pedal at a time.I have an Art 2000 Express guitar processor and pedals also.
First pedal I got was a boss ge7 EQ pedal. The last petal I have got was a DigiTech whammy DT. I like your channel keep rocking it! Happy New Year!
I love to watch Ayla's tutorials its like listening into an angel my guardian angel😍
I love multi effects. I got the ME-80. Though it’s a multi effects box, one can operate it manually like individual pedals giving the freedom to adjust and change settings to each unit/pedal as desired. It’s a really cheap alternative and very handy and much more portable than a series of pedals. I even have a back up unit during gigs just in case of technical issues. Money aside, I would have bought individual pedals but I’d be too lazy carrying them all around. 😊
Same reason why I got the ME-80. Although it's digital, the audience wouldn't care less.
I just got this too. Prior I was using a Zoom GX4 but that required me to program all the tones before hand. The ME 80 is very analog in a sense of operation (although the effects of course are digital) and lets me adjust on the fly.
This is a really, really good basic explanation and demonstration of effects. Good refresher for experienced guitarists too.
Very informative! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and experience.
Thank you for the good video! My first pedal was a tube screamer. My favorite pedal is a marshall blues breaker. And than I have a cheap delay pedal which I like a lot and an Ibanez Wha. That is all. Reverb comes from the amp. I do not like too much stuff around and I hate Multieffects cause they confuse me and I can not handle them.
Awesome, the first pedal I got was Hendrix uni vibe, my favourite is still that and also a Marshall blues breaker that’s based on the 70s Marshall tone, keep on rocking!
Nice job on your videos. You have things for beginning and more developed guitarists. You’ve also got a wonderful on camera persona.
Keep it up. HS
Every time you post it’s always according to what I’m working on my birthday is in a month and I’m looking into pedals I really like the looper pedal
Seriously, Ayla is such a charming person to listen to, and she is a gifted musician.
When the pleasant, laid back, friendly young woman whips out the metal riffs ...
That's alright some dude will be running sound for her as he did for the trio of sisters from Monterrey
@@Longhorn.Rock_Roll61 Are you referring to THE WARNING?
@@TheGuitarman1968 well I have been there and I don't think there is another trio of sisters from there. I'm kidding yes of course
thanks so much for all your in-depth and simple to understand explanations and demonstrations really great ...much appreciate your efforts and guidance you're great !!
This is great!!!!! you helped me decide if I needed to add anything else.
Boss Blues driver was my first pedal. Still have it after 20 years.
I have some interesting pedals but the hxstomp has the reverse delay. I hadn't thought of it until your video. Thanks!
Didn't get my first pedal until playing for 5 years so for those beginners out there, like she said, you don't need one! I have a great modeling amp that always carried me through the effects I needed
I like that you have the Ibanez Tube Screamer 9. My favorite pedal and most smooth sounding. Good tutorial about pedals!
First time viewer, new subscriber. The first pedal I "bought" came with the first amp (Peavy) I had bought for my very first guitar, a 1982 Gibson Les Paul Custom in Silverburst (Thanks, Dad! Worth every penny deducted from my paycheck back in the day) The pedal had a reverb feature, as well as distortion, and a couple more that slip my mind. The next pedal I got was a used Digitech Digital Delay that blew my fragile, eggshell mind. Thank you Ayla, for all your great work.
"You don't need any guitar pedals" - maybe, but they sure are fun! :D
What I'd really recommend for players just getting into pedals is to look at the cheaper Behringer ones. The quality has really got better over the years, and even though they're housed in plastic it's a super price point for new players or those with a limited budget to try out a wide variety of pedals to see what they like.
Behringer?nah not for privileged kids like her..i bet her daddy pay with joy the next pete cornish..
@@aprilschauer4864 Or maybe since she's a professional guitar player who creates online lessons, she chooses to buy what is appropriate for her job...
@@ASpoonfulOfJimmy right? Why are some people so salty?
I see Jimi's Smash Hits in the background, yeah! My favorite and first pedal was a fuzz box in 1976 and yes I lost it. If you ever want to, I'm curious what is a compressor used for?
Great video, again!
My fave pedal is the LR Baggs Session. I have it always ON with saturation on full!
It add a fat, clear and balanced tone to my acoustic and electric guitars! Who says it is just for acoustics!!
My OCD is a very close 2nd place with its rich dynamic range and full resolution. These together add space and texture without mushy oblivion!
Love your informative clips and you are a great inspiration. You are much easier to understand and very damned attractive into the bargain!
🎸🎸🎶🎼🎼😁😁
Oh girl you like green! 💪 Very nice introduction to pedals! Thanks! I love reverb, and of course loops - fun
Thanks- loved this lesson. I only have one pedal so far, and chose the looper. I wanted to get used to playing with something else, but not ready for actual people😂 I looked at it for about a year before getting the nerve up to try it myself! 😂It is really fun!👍👍
Which Looper one did you opt for?
Andy Chapman I got a Ditto tc electonic, which is inexpensive and easy to use. 👍👍🎸
@@sandragirard8054 Thanks for the feedback - also looking at the Ditto to purchase
I'd recommend to newbies not to get a tuner pedal for one simple reason. Don't get me wrong, tuning is essential and you should have a tuner, but a tuner PEDAL is a basic function at a high price point. So if youre tight on cash, I'd recommend getting a headstock tuner. Same function, gets your guitar in tune, and you can find a good quality one for less money than the cheapest tuner pedal. Saves more money to spend on effects down the road and saves room on the pedalboard
Tuner pedals are a waste of realestate on pedalboards, apart from the mute function I agree a headstock tuner gets the job done and can be much cheaper
Yeah my exact thoughts
Headstock tuners are generally no where near as accurate as a pedal tuner.
@@LiamNashMiller No tuner needs to be perfect though. As long is it's accurate enough that you don't sound out of tune, it's done all it needs to. Anything beyond that isn't really necessary
@@TheFinalFarewell For a lot of people, a Snark Tuner or an equivalent wouldn’t work in a live environment.
Thanks, Kiddo! I liked your video and being in late 40's and still yearning to play the guitar, your multi-effects pedal seems the right choice for an oldie like me. But Overall, all the best dear. Being a musicophile, I really appreciated your video, please do put up more. Here to learn!
Just checked out your two bands Ayla. Quite impressed with both (and your playing). I can definitely learn a lot from you. Hope to catch you live in whatever capacity in the future
Are you a mind reader? I watched your pedal video recently and was wondering if you’d do one for us Noobs! Thanks 😊

I bought the line 6 spider v30 today . So many options for effects and sound backgrounds. For just over 200 bucks it seems like a great place to start. And as I find my musical self I can go get the pedals to add later and save a boat load of money along the way.
Great video. My very first pedal was an Ibanez tube Screamer and my last and favorite pedal is my Fillmore East Funky Vibe..
I did not expect her to play Slayer. I thought she might get Metallica heavy at the most.
Answer to your question: my first pedal was The Big Muff
P.S. The most important thing EVERYONE needs to keep in mind from Beginner to Pro is “ if it SOUNDS GOOD TO YOU, - IT IS GOOD “ & if you make an ERROR PLAY A WRONG NOTE KEEP PLAYING EVERYONE make’s a MISTAKE now & then chances are most will NEVER NOTICE . FINALLY HAVE FUNN !!!
I always learn a lot from your videos. Keep sharing! thanks.
Thank you again. Very helpful. I haven’t explored pedals yet.
I thought you would have mentioned a chorus pedal, very useful eh?
Lots of other pedal types that are out there, chorus, flangers, tremolo etc... as well as different flavors of delays (digital, analog, tape etc...) You can go berserk (and broke!) getting into all that stuff. This was a good intro for the beginner though.
THIS VIDEO IS NOT FOR SHOEGAZERS, SKIP THIS VIDEO
reverb,tremalo and delay for my style,
nice video,thanks!
Nice work, you're killing it! Keep up the great work
What Guitar Pedals Should You Buy? NONE! Learn to play instead.
This comment is so dumb i dont even know how to begin. But let’s see… What if I wanna learn metal guitar? Should I shred clean? Or maybe go spend 2000USD on an ENGL only to not get a good tone out of it, because I’m practicing, ie. Playing at bedroom level?
Or I could try learning surf without knowing how to work with the spring reverb?
Or doom metal without a good fuzz?
The list of genres where you need to learn to play the effects is not a short one, whether the effect be a delay pedal or a cranked 100W tube amp…
Thank you for this vidéo. Helps me a lot. Bought my very first pedal a couple of weeks ago. A Boss overdrive. Learning how to use it. Love it. Makes me think I’m Santana😀😃😄😁😆🤩😎. Have a good day.
This is a perfect description for beginner guitar players that want to expand their guitar learning experience
Great video! I started with a ME-80 mfx which includes all of these fx and a looper.
Thank you for someone finally showing me some good pedal choices 🎸 thanks 👍
Hi, Ayla. I was first intrigued by the fuzz box, and started collecting different sounding ones. At one point, I bought a Kent wah wah pedal, with a toggle switch for two different sounds. One gave your pedal action the standard wah-ooh-wah sound. The other gave your pedal action a wee-ooh-wee sound. Then I bought a couple different spring reverbs. One had really short 3 inch springs which gave an ultra tanky tin can sound. The other had extra long 18 inch springs and sounded pretty natural, which I liked a lot. Then I bought a used Binson tape delay. It was really expensive, but was very classy sounding. I later bought a Boss digital delay. Not cheap, but cheaper than the Binson. I highly recommend it. It gave super clean repeats. Then I bought a used T & C Chorus flanger. Perhaps the best smoothest cleanest chorus effect I have ever heard. Around the same time, I got a Boss Super Overdrive. It is one of the best overdrives I've worked with. It produces one of the smoothest, useful, old-tube-amp distortions I have ever heard. MY WISH LIST: I'd like to get a multi delay engine T & C delay. Some in-series multi-engine delays can produce lovely natural delay tones. I'd like to get a Wampler Velvet Fuzz; one of the nicest useable lead tones I've heard. I'd like to get a Catalinbread Fuzzrite pedal to replace my dud unit Mosrite Fuzzrite pedal (the Catalinbread is based on healthy Mosrite Fuzzrites). Lastly, as an owner of a Thomas Organ solid state Vox Super Beatle, I'm a huge fan of the MRB effect found on both the American Thomas Organ solid state Vox amps, as well as on the English Jennings solid state Vox amps. I'd like to get the Q-60 Type 1 Mid Range Frequency Booster Equaljzer & Germanium amp, by Astrolab Fuzz & Filter Store, Cedar Pocket, Australia, sold through Reverb.com . It is a copy of the famous Vox MRB effect on the classic solid state Vox amps of the mid 60's. It is invaluable for reproducing the unusual resonant guitar tones made by Frank Zappa, The Beatles on Sgt Pepper, & Iron Butterfly's Erik Braunn on In A Gadda Da Vida.
My first pedal was a DD7 but i didnt like that digital sound on my acoustic guitar, so then i bought a Carbon Copy and added a MXR Reverb with the pad function, and i have to say that both are my favorite pedals, i love how they sound on church
I had made a distortion pedal 40 yrs back .Then to busy now after watching u play picked up my guitar again.
Thanks for another great video.I had a sophisticated pedal board that cost me a fortune and I got fed up with too many sounds. Now I keep to basics; tuner, okko organic distortion, valbrukc delay, a tube screamer, a volume deal and a Boss Looper trying to keep it simple. PS I wish I had a sister as down to earth, with as soothing a voice and great personality.
I just recently bought a Dan Electro talk back reverse delay and I instantly fell in love with it.
My first effects pedals we're a Flumes Earthquaker ,and a MXR Carbon Copy Delay pedals . The guy that ran Guitar Center told me to get these, an I love these two pedals. The guy is in a band and he said he uses on every gig. They are Awesome pedals and I would recommend them to any of my friends.
*Thank you so much! Your video really helped me a lot.*
Thank for sharing your amazing talents this is so amazing ..over drive and equaliser very amazing
