Hi there! Huge thanks to Rhett and to Sweetwater for making this happen. I had so much fun hanging out with all of you. Good luck with the drawing; I did my best to pick out a great board for the lucky winner ⚡️
You did good!
Love Phil's channel and LOVE seeing bass content here Rhett. As a multi instrumentalist it's rad to see your videos branched out of purely the guitar world.
Didn't realize you two went to school together. I'd love to see more videos of the two of your. Love Phil's channel.
What s the link for his chanel?
@@frans688 I do not find it either….
Wow that Flint was crazy. Phil just lit up. I never really would have thought reverb and tremolo would sound so nice on a bass.
Description of Compression was the best explanation I've ever heard. Would love a series of shorts describing various effects and amp settings and how they affect the signal. Awesome job.
He Rhett and Philip,
As a bassplayer myself I realy liked this vid. Finaly some great bass contend. As for the pedal choises, here's my view on them.
-The JHS Colorbox was a nobrainer. That thing covers so much ground on the dirt. From OD untill fuzz.
-The JHS Bender, well, what can I say. I've got a love/hate for fuzzes on bass. I realy like them. But there is 1 realy big downer for me for playing with them live. The one thing that realy helps to cut through a bandmix is the attack of the bass sound. That realy first attack thats just a bit louder (its 1 louder) then the rest. With a fuzz there is this compression where you lose that first attack. A blend on a fuzz will help. So I thing that alot of "guitar" fuzzes without a blend will cause that the bass will get lost in the bandmix.
-The Cali compressor is just a great choice for bass. That thing realy works!
-The Strymon Flint, I just love it. I realy love tremolo on my bass. And I dont have a reverb jet but would love to use it. The Deco would also be a good choice. But the dirt side is already coverd with the Colorbox. But the delay side is now missing a bit. As you didnt choose for the Volante.
-As a result of choosing the Nightsky, you end up with 2 reverbs. But I do get it why you choose the Nightsky. That pedal realy is a moodmaker. Its a instrument on its own.
As for placing the pedals, I would place the Nightsky on the front row. Because I think that the switches must be in direct place to control them in live playing, like tempo and stuff. The Cali would be better on the back row as a always on pedal.
Great job today guys! Cheers to both of you and Sweetwater for inspiring me to pick up my axe again from a two year layoff. I'm leaving your room with a smile on my face.
Bought a used Squire P Bass years ago for $70. Upgraded the electronics and installed a set of Fralin pickups and a set of flatwound strings. Awesome bass for about $300👍
With the addition of the Nightsky, and all the other pedals dialed in, you're getting into a territory that really puts me in mind of the Pat Metheny Group soundscape. Terrific!!!
As a guitar geek following Rhett in the tone journey this was cool to see from bass players perspective...who was also opening his eyes to new things...nice work Rhett..ty man
There's so much overlapping stuff on every single topic obviously so I'm looking for the type of content you seem to have tapped into..stay in that vein imo my friend...I'm dropping channels faster than I can count.. too much same old...and it's old...you and a few others are the real stuff I'm looking for...deeper...more personal touch..thanks for the hard work and I'm excited to see what is next for you..🤘😜🎸🎶☮️🌍
I think post 2012, solid state eclipsed tube amp technology, and that's when pedal boards became more necessary for every guitar player, bass player and vocalist. Your videos inspired me creating my guitar and vocals board in one
very instructive direct, greetings from Spain
The colour box has so many uses, it’s just awesome.
Love this content! RS being a tonal sherpa for a fellow musician is fun and educational. This should be a somewhat regular series
So much fun today! That's honestly a dream board for me as a bass player. At the very end I was saying to myself "I wish he'd throw that Bender on there" And Rhett did, mind blown! Always a joy, hope they keep up the lives they are too much fun.
Agree, love the sound of that bender...all of them impressive though.
And yeah you can DEFINATLEY hear the difference with the Cali 76. I'm not a comp guy but you can SURE tell bro! Especially in a mix or as Rhett said bout his vocal...
Did the right thing by bringing the bender back! That’s a badass board, especially as something that can go with bass or other instruments
Squier makes an Affinity PJ bass which is pretty damn nice for the money and gives you a bit more versatility over the standard p.
Great vid! The pedals were really cool. I started playing guitar about 4 months ago and I started out as an acoustic player but as of late I've been using a Firefly FFLPs electric guitar with 2 tone city pedals. (bluesman & sweet cream) Now I've fallen in love with pedals they are so unique and I love the new tones and nuances you can get.
two of my favorite channels coming together, I love this more than a southern gentleman loves Peavey. More of this content from both channels please.
I think you got it right. Phil's initial reactions were insightful.
chill and enjoy
Played bass in gigging bar bands for a couple decades.. blues..covers..original “REM-feel “… motown… only pedal I ever needed with my Tbird bass,Hartke cab w/ Galien Krueger head…was a chorus stomp box..
Bass is mainly FELT.. at least in bars.. really don’t think too many effects are needed… but that’s me..✌🏼😎
Loved this show, learned a lot about some pedals already knew I wanted and it was just very relaxing and chill hang out. I really want to win but doubt I will but would love any one of those 4, all great choices. 👍
man this is such a great and informative video. I agree about the Deco, I use it with my Gretsch and it's just unreal, easily my favorite pedal for old school Roy Orbison stuff.
That was a great stream. Very entertaining, and Sweetwater is awesome.
I have my DIY pedalboard with mostly "old school" type pedals - Dunlop Cry Baby Wah, Volume pedal, Poly tuner, JHS Sweet Tea (combination of Angry Charlie for a Marshall sound and the Ibanez Tube Screamer for a more classic rock sound), a DynoMyRoto (combines flange, Reverb, and chorus to emulate a Leslie), a DigiTech mini Jamman looper, and a mini-looper. I cannot use the loopers live, but they are fun for practicing solos at home. They are mounted on a metal frame Pedal Train with a Voodoo power supply. I love it, EXCEPT, that damned thing weighs a metric ton, especially in the hardshell travel case. I replaced the bag case because my pedals kept sliding off the board whenever I transported it. As I get older I am finding that simpler (and lighter) is better.
I love the Tone Bender my wife it’s the way it sounds compared to other fuzzes I have. I think what you mean by electrical is that the damn the is staticky and it sounds like an old mono stereo system. If you play through a distorted amp with that pedal ya forget it. It’s way crazy. Honestly my favorite fuzz is the JHS Cheese 🧀 pedal. So many different voice the love tone pedal that this pedal is derived from, is a fuzz face topology. With different voicing and clippings it cleans up depending on the setting like a fuzz face. The Tone Bender does not clean up well. If your looking for a lot of depth the Bender works. If your looking for a brighter sounding fuzz that does the Hendrix thing or even more of a buzz tone sound. Without using a buzz tone then fuzz face is the best option.
It is great to see a bass board. I am coming back to bass and the only pedal I had before was a flanger. This board would be awesome to hook up to my bass, fingers crossed. Thanks for doing this video.
Entertaining episode! Interesting - and slightly unusual pedal decisions. Affordable, still quite pricey.
Wait, what? There is a slot for a dreamy space reverb? But no Chorus, Flanger, Envelope Filter, Octaver or Looper? (Ok, I did dig Fuzz into Nightsky.)
At the end Sweetwater might have thought:
"Oh no, it´s gonna be even more expensive! Why does he do that?" 😀 CZcams Gold!
My advice for a small bass board would be f.e. an "EBS Micro Bass 3", which covers a mute, a tuner, preamp, eq, compressor, drive, fx loop and DI out in one box and go for the rest from there, maybe a TC Plethora X5 or an EHX Superego plus etc.
I always wanted an EB-3… like Jack Bruce inCream..👍🏼.. still boomy,but very distinct notes.. almost like Mustang.. but wayyyy better..!
Never got my own..😩
An excellent exploration and huge congratulations to Phil and whomever wins the new board!!
I've played guitar off/on most of my life but started learning bass not to long ago. I would have liked to see Phil build strictly a bass board and a separate production board as I don't see myself using the Reverb or delay on bass. Instead I would have wanted a chorus pedal with a blend knob. I do realize though that this is a guitar channel and you have to please everyone so maybe Phil can make a bass board on his channel. Right now for bass I use a tried and true Sans Amp bass driver di and a TC Electronic SpectraComp but my dream comp would be this Cali76 for bass. I also want to get a Chorus pedal with a blend knob to satisfy my 80s itch. That being this was a good video to learn about other pedals I wouldn't normally think twice about. Also, I loved the new Noah Guthrie album that you and Phil played on. I'm mostly a punk rock guy but I really enjoyed the guitar and bass work on this album.
Loving when you have Phil over to dive deep into Bass stuff!! That board came out great. I probably would have put a DI/Preamp (perhaps even the Colour Box) on that last slot for Live use, but you can always have it outside of the board. Cheers and keep up with the good work!!
Wow just got home and watched the replay...so inspired by this vid! Opened my eyes (ears?) to a whole new sonic world for my bass, thank you!!
For those who weren't sold on the Tone bender for bass. MKIII are the BEST era Bender for bass
Great way to explain how compression pedals work.(40:30~)
So I hated flange.... today I heard it on bass. Now I hate no effects. Thanks y'all:) making my world a happier place
The Color box is such an interesting pedal.
Wise, to keep options open
Really enjoyed this episode. Super fun to explore from the bass perspective as well. It is true how your creative ear adapters to the tone and effect in real time.
I entered to win and told my buddies to check it out. Also subscribed to Phil .Later gents.
Some good on the internet ✌️
Totally digging the NYLE. Very cool. Amazing difference in tone. Like you're playing thru a different amp or something. Sounds great man.
YES PLEASE MORE RIG BUILDS!!!! Best way to kill a weeknight.
Thanks for taking us along. It was fun! I look forward to winning the board!
Yes Please! I want to write some atmospheric tunes! Luv it! Thx Guys.
If you still wanted a board tuner and still add another pedal you can switch to the bigger polytune that has an extra 9v out
Phil's a step ahead of most bass players I've ever played with, which was always like a pedal or two just kinda hanging out in front of them somewhere. On? Off? Who can say? And then there was the one guy who played bass and was classically trained on piano- he brought a full rack case.
why do you need pedals for bass for like 95% of musical genres? i have a clip on tuner and an always on compressor in the effects loop, and even that feels like overkill half the time.
@@methyod yeah, it's this kind of lack of curiosity I'm talking about. No one *needs* pedals, but they can spark creativity and add new timbres and textures. Given the bass's role in most music, there are a number of pedals that are definitely right out, but then there are things like the surprisingly deep and varied world of bass overdrives many of which sound fantastic to my ear. And that's just the tip of the iceberg. I guess I've never understood how most bass players I've played with are not even interested in experimenting with their sound.
Great video, learned a lot of valuable information. I've been playing since I was 12 (28 now) but never really looked into pedals until now, so this came at the right time. Thanks Rhett! (Btw I'm not the "Thijs" mentioned in the video, just another Dutch guy)
Love the coffee mug. I have the same one from Sweetwater.
Loved this concept for a video series. Love hearing it with you and witnessing the decision process.
Sorry I missed this. Missed Phil’s 1st live stream too … failing in my Philip Conrad fandom
Loving the build video so far! Can't wait to see the final selections! I would use this for bass, and guitar!
Yeah, nice idea, building boards for others, great use of your wisdom and skills.
I am feeling some odd satisfaction watching the streamed video as I recently got myself a proper pedalboard for guitar and for bass. Love to see you both on CZcams, as I currently am learning from both of you guys' lessons.
Inspiring playing with the effects, nice choice of pedals, too.
This was excellent. Never thought that 2 hours of noodling bassist would be so damn cool.
Really enjoyed this one Rhett, super informative and you can literally use that board with anything .. very cool
The deco and colour box made me click on this immediately
Man, that’s a cool setup! My main instrument is bass and I could so use this in upcoming projects! I also play a little guitar and sax.. and have done recording in the past. Really eager to get back into it and some new gear would be awesome!
AYYYYE! Pinstripe Pedals TXRX-M on the original board!
Phils bass sound is so inspiring!
Rhett could take a piece of lint and a paper clip and get a tone out of it ...(and we would buy it.) He is truly The Pedalboard Whisperer.
Hey lads! Rhett, I had been interested in the deco for a bit before you did your video and that sent it over the edge for me. It’s a really cool, versatile pedal. Thanks for the vid; this is very inspiring as I’m trying to put my first board together!
the jhs pulp 'n peel is a great compressor that also has a rat circuit in it. i believe it also has a buffer in it whereas the 3 series does not.
I love this format. You should make a board for noah next. This would be a great series!!
This is a fantastic board! These pedals are a all great and couldn't imagine winning this thing.
So I started on bass before I picked up electric, and I use tonnes of pedals for electric, but to this day I still don't use a single pedal when I'm playing bass. I tried using compression one time and I really didn't like it at all. So I can definitely relate to wanting minimalism on Bass.
Same here but I keep trying. Wah is cool in specific applications. This compression pedal could be different.
I give it 8.3 shoyles.
Give Phil some mic gain love....
Dude, definitely make this a thing! I felt like I was just hanging out, too. It was great!
I’d love to hear a JHS Crimson Fuzz or EHX Russian Big Muff in place of the Bender. Russian muffs sound great with bass!
excellent stream idea
Is that mono carbon fibre pedalboard
I'd love any and all pieces mentioned today on bass or guitar :) I hope you made yourself happy first
More of these! Was great
I was expecting Phil to lean forward and say-- "Vincent Vega". 😅🤣😅🤣😅
Love the Cali 76 choice. And always love/like/respect Stymon pedals. nice board overall. I have subscribed to Phil's Channell. go go go
Excellent video fellas! Thank you for sharing this with us!
Nice and informative. I wish that you would have contrasted each pedal with his current DIY board.
Dude you should check out the Maestro pedals. They were just released two days ago. it's a classic sound with a fun classic look going as far back to the 60's
Sweet board. Really hope I win!
Where’s the link to Phil’s youtube channel?
Love me some pedal action!
I missed the live stream so I'm giving MY comments as I watch the playback lol.
I watch all of your videos and listen to your podcasts. And I never win crap. That's why I should win this board dude. Lol. Hey good luck people! Hope someone that REALLY needs it gets that board! Honestly. Take care folks!
cool rig, you picked the winner pedals for Phil!
Great job guys!
You said you like outing rigs together for people, I could use some help. I’ve always wanted to learn to play the bass but was to busy with work and life. Now I that I’m unable to work I really want to learn but only my wife is working. Ive been trying to barter for a bass but no luck, I’m pretty handy with solider so if you have any junk parts I can try and fix them up if you don’t mind sending to me.
First pedal should’ve been a clean blend pedal like OBNE signal blender, boss ls2, EHX Tri mixer or Goodwood bass interfacer
Man I’d love to see I live-looping board build
Oh man I want that 😏🤣
great... now I need a Strymon Nightsky... thank you Rhett... hahahah
just kidding! nice video!
that was a really fun stream! I hope to see more of this!
Two fuzz pedals and two reverbs? We watched a bass player discover post-rock in real time
Dude im no bass player but i have a short scale bass, ampeg combo and a looper cause its fun
more small rigs please!
Bass + fuzz =
Great vid. As a bass player of many years I can say my favorite hands down for fuzz / boost is none other than EHX Bass Big Muff. A very interesting sounding fuzz and has some useful tweaks for bass players. Cuts live and sounds good recorded as well. The bender sounds awesome though, definitely its own thing. Also, I’ve never been a fan of using compressors with guitar or bass, but I have to say I really dig the sound of that series 3. Might have to grab one!
Great video wich helps a lot caus' I'm also resizing my pedalboard!
Build a small pedal board...that costs you $2500... Cali = $250 ColorBox = ~$400, Collider = $350...etc. etc. The JHS S3 are cheap, but all the others are going to dent your wallet big time. Even all JHS pedals is going to be ~$500.00 or 1k if you throw in the colorbox.
Sounds about right, we're talking pro level equipment. Do you know what a pro level bow for violin costs? You can get one at a time and get skilled with each piece as you save for the next.
What music stores did you visit in London? I’m going in May and would love to visit some cool and historic shops!
Awesome, very informative and entertaining vid as always! Can you do a video on the SG sound?
I’m going to London in May and was wondering what music/guitar stores you would recommend??
