Thanks PL...I REALLY appreciate this!
Golden Plexi, Sweet Cream and Tape Machine were my favorites. All the pedals sound great and a big plus is they won't take up a lot of space on a pedal board.
Just bought golden plexi and sweet cream from Andertons in the UK they give a free power supply and patch kit with two pedals.
I bought the Golden Plexi, Bad horse and the Sweet Cream and I love all three, plus they are just about the best value pedals I know of. ;-)
Man oh Man the tone is of the charts dude!
Man I love your videos! I regret not coming back for a while. Sounding killer as always dude. Drop Dead Legs Rock on! :)
Sweet cream, tape machine, and mandragora. They sounded really good.too bad we don't have a riff city in Birmingham al.im gonna check it out online
tape machine for the edge sound, summer orange for the stones sound, black tea for whatever. To me many of them were variations of the same theme
+leokimvideo Hey Leo I'm one of your biggest fans.
Hey Steve, that's some sweet little boxes you'e got there. I also think they all sound great. You gotta love their colors and the names they came up with. Is there some sort of pedal revival? Loved the Golden Plexi, Dry Martini, Wild Fire & Mandragora flavors. Rock on!
All of the distortion pedals sounded ... distorted. Not a lot of differences.Is each pedal supposed to mimic a certain amp?
+seattwa they are largely reproducing more expensive pedals (as in three times the price or more). The Plexi one is a Carl Martin Marshall tone, for instance. Dry Martini is like a USA OCD pedal. Bad Horse is like a Klon KTR etc.
@imsuckingwind Go fuck yourself, you don't know shit about this company. J. Wong was the lead engineer at MXR for years before he made tone city. Not to mention, the Red Army was russian. You can fuck right off you racist piece of shit
Enjoyed the Sweet Cream and the Tape Machine. But my fav distortion is still the BBE Green Screamer if I were to use a pedal
+TheFret Buzz Ditto
Tone City also do a dual button series of pedals which are based on various amps. Their model M is immense and yes its based on a marshall amp. I dont know what the deal is in the usa but here in the uk if they break within 2 years just send them back to the dealer which in the uk is Andertons and you'll get a replacement. Thats a hell of a warranty
Golden Plexi, Wild fire, angel wings. although i did notice that some of them sounded identical
+PixxyLixxx
I have the Tape Machine and Golden Plexi ones. Great tone, especially for the price
My Top Three: The Golden Plexi, the Sweet Cream, and the Mandragora. What's your top three?!?
PixxyLixxx Your videos are Very entertaining usually. those 30min long videos where you just talk about stuff.
PixxyLixxx
1. Mandragora
2. Sweet Cream
3. Black Tea (Because everyone makes a great "plexi" pedal.)
PixxyLixxx I like 1.Golden Plexi 2. Bad horse (seems it would make a good boost pedal?) 3. Tape machine \m/
but they all have a little something to like about em .
PixxyLixxx Yo!! I loved the Summer Orange Rolling Stones Demo! Hahaha! Sweet Cream reminds me of KISS 1976 era, love the crunch, and not too saturated but just KISS-ish! , Angel Wing sounds very "LIVE" to me, which I liked a lot! Could use that in live settings 24/7! All great, these three my favorites...Great demo video here, Steve!
+PixxyLixxx 1.mandragora 2. golden plexi 3. cant decide
I own a Golden Plexi loved it. I got a MoVall Plexi Troll which is the same thing need to test it out
ehhh... all the distortion/overdrive pedals sound way too similar. In a blind test I wouldn't know which was which.
yeah, that's the only downside to tone city. too many overdrives and too few of other fx.
@@siggiarabi Agreed - I soon became sick of so many OD pedals. Really boring and unnecessary.
@@alansturgess1324 definitely. one of the reasons as to why i love the rat for example.
To my ears the Tone City pedals are definitely not sounding more similar than other pedals in the category overdrive / booster do it, too. Maybe they do that in this video. In my opinion that is because the amp is already covering too much of the sound so there remains too little space for the pedal to show it´s real sound capacities.If you take the time you´d find out, that already very little pot movements lead to different sounds and dynamic response - if you put them in front of a good sounding clean amp. Then you´d find out how well these are made and many nuances between the pedals. Only a very, very little amount of amps (and myself had a lot of amps of all kind of brands over the years) do take pedals really (!) good. So - if your amp does - you´d be happy with these pedals. The price is rediculous for this kind of quality. With the Kaffir Lime for example I got the best clean sound that I ever had. Really precious and a wonderful dynamics.
From the Tone City company I own these pedals : Golden Plexi (2x), Model M, Model B , Black Tea (2x), Kaffir Lime, Bad Horse, Sweet Cream, Tremble.
They are on two different floorboards - and not all of them are always on the board - only Golden Plexi and Black Tea got a permanent place ...
Martin from Germany
I love the dry martini!
Never heard you play a Stones song before, awesome! Liked the Golden Plexi; Wild Fire and Summer Orange.
I own the mandragora and the plexi since like February of this year. Mine squeal at high volumn. But I love them. Wish they would make a blue sky type of reverb
Ordering a Chapman guitar ML1 Hotrod soon and I get a choice of a free tone city pedal when I order from Andertons (I'm in the UK) probably gonna go with the tape delay because I got the older Blackstar HT5 head recently with no reverb and it sounds great but a little dry.
My Mini Pedal Board Wish List - Sweet Cream, Black Tea, Tape Machine, Angel Wing, Summer Orange, Mini Cry Baby, Mini Spark Booster by TC Electronic, and a second overdrive of some sort
Awesome review thank you 👍🎸
5:00 Pink Floyd - Run Like Hell
On this end ...The tea and the martini are super cool. I feel the way you look ....tired and worn out. kids, work etc.......I get it .....dont know how you make the time...sure glad you do bra....LOVE tonelives.....U-ROCK......out
You need to do a test with the dual pedals. The model m is especially good as is king of blues
Just bought a sweet cream from riff city
Yo PIXXY! When are you gonna do a proper vid on your RG760? That thing is drop dead beautiful!
Dude your Ibanez guitars are freaking amazing... heard a piece of Spanish Fly in there.. nice
Wished u did this demo Pixxxylixx style (talking gear, lil bs talking, riffs, joking around, & info) vs a commercial
The Summer Orange is pretty cool
i love these pedals! also please do an eatin aint cheatin cover or some other steel panther song! i like it when you do covers
amazing value for money thoose pedals
Are these going direct into the DAW or no?
Great demo. What is your signal path? What amp did you use?
Your demo just made me - have to purchase the Golden Plexi.
Bought 3 of them. Love them : Golden plexy, Black Tea and bad horse.
Only thing that is a bummer is that you can't use a Z connector between them. the ouput/input aren't aligned correctly.
which do u like better bad horse or black tea
I can't compare, one is an overdrive type and the the black tea goes more in the distortion level.
the black horse is really a good overdrive pedal. I've played with other brand ( EHX soul food, Carl martin DC drive, Caline Orange burst ), and i always go back to the black horse. it doesn't change the tone like the EHX soul food does.
5.WildFire4.Tape Machine3.Dry Martini2.Black Tea1. Golden Plexi
Nice tone pedals.
Angel Wing, the one you playing Van Halen (Top Jimmy I believe) is the coolest sounding. There is so many pedals that do distortion that it gets very boring. I'm trying to get ones that are really different. Summer Orange (Rolling Stones tune) was also cool. 1st-Angel Wing, 2nd-Tape Machine, 3rd-Summer Orange.
Drop dead legs
Hey Steve, sounding killer, as usual - what were you using for an amp for demoing these?
Sweet Cream for the win.
I'm noticing in the background something that looks suspiciously like a Commodore Amiga computer(or similar). It might be time to upgrade to something a bit more modern although they were great in their day
1:22 drop dead legs I love it
Honestly they all sound great! : )
Good pedals, i have golden plexi, what is the best?
riff city has them?? i can now get my mandragora!!!
where does the line go to after the pedal? Amp? Pre-amp? What?
do these go under another name in Australia? Not a lot around.
Great video!
Yeah, FUCKIN' correct.
22 pedals and only 6 aren't distortion/OD/gain pedals... where is the auto wah? no flanger? no ring modulator or pitch bender?
would any tone city pedal be suitable for metal, as in a more modern lamb of god type sound/tone
Marcus Johnson I have owned a couple of the bigger ones and they make a ton of noise, go with another brand, if you want a cheap but good sounding metal pedal check out rocktrons pedals used, for the zombie rectified DISTORTION and it sounds just like a DUAL REC
Angel wing as cool
awesome vid
Golden Plexi and Wild Fire
drop dead legs, nice!!!!
Mandragora, Black tea and Tape Machine. \m/
Golden plexi, Black Tea, and the Tape Machine. Wonder who the NZ dealer is ( and if I could hide one from the wife) ?....
whats the signal chain?
Its like 50-60 US$ each....I wouldnt concider any cheap
Some of those sound pretty decent.
Pretty lame you have to OPT IN for EMAILS from them to win one LOL.
Depends on how and what you play. Pink Floyd wins here.
Wish they didnt use FaceBook
sounds horrible!! Sorry!!
+shell Fisher trust me, these are really good played, especially the chorus one. Or the chorus one with the Plexi, or whatever..
cool
