@@13AK98 ah ah great comment! And aren't we all plagiarising since there's only limited notes, but unlimited expressions to be found. We all inspire each others in the end is a closed circle. Greetings fellow guitarists
Thanks for making the world a better place Dave. I’ve followed you a long time and lived a very similar life with mental hardships, mishaps and sorrow. Best of luck and I’ll keep following you ❤️
Very clean attempt ... afaik. .... and to be true: most of my Frusciante knowledge is "stolen from you" (;-)) Frusciante is a sole phenomenon and i had no idea where to start because he is "special". I do like a lot of his playing live, because he is able to put "energy" into his performance .... like you (;-)) So thanks a lot for sharing
Yep it just really works! Love your playing Dave I have done so much more improvising to my own backing since discovering your channel I have to thank you for the inspiration you provide us all with, I feel my playing has really improved since! Cheers! Great playing as always.
Damn, you really love that man. I hope he does something for you as much time as you've put in to him. It's borderline stalkerish, however you seem harmless.
I don't get the extreme EQ settings like treble 0 mid 10 bass 10. Same with the Katana settings in past videos. I always have to tweak the EQ different. But damn, you make it work somehow Dave. Cheers!
Damn good! What a massive thick and powerful sound but quiet simplified. I like the sound as I heard him the first time in my teen years and still flashed of his performance everytime I am listening. Great job Dave ala Frusciante Style. Regards!
I am actually starting into the Frusciante Cosmos and your amazing video is such an Inspiration for me and so worthful and helpful. Thank you so much🙏🏼🤘🏼👍🏼
Another amazing performance there Dave, you really are a truly emotional player, lived the sound of your 62 here, just WOW. Love your work Dave, keep em coming, we love your videos here in Oz mate
I think the reason your having to dial back on the ds2 and wah , is because of the pre amp in past fx chorus. Excellent playing again Dave . Sterling job .
Damn that sounds so good... A question good sir. What would you say is the difference between John’s 99 and “off the map” tone? Is it just the fuzz or is there another factor I’m missing? Great video as always great guru of Frusciante.
Nice board! I have a modded ds-2 that I love (don't ask which mod, I didn't do the surgery). I love John's guitar playing and your guitar playing, but you know what I also love? That HevyDevy hoodie. Mad props for an awesome sweatshirt lol.
I really think you'd like the ten spot 2 from wilson effects! it's really a perfect clone of the wh10v1 circuit with volume control, and it's in a metal casing as you like!
It's a lovely sound! I have the level and tone turned down on my DS2, because otherwise it sounds harsh and the volume jumps. And I already use the Golden Plexi for dirty clean. The all on max thing did never work for me :/
Hey Dave, great video! I had the same issue with level on Boss DS1 and DS2 into my clean and "dirty clean" amp settings, but if I switch to the gain channel and had it set to 0 with volume at whatever appropriate, I can run them at full. Peavey and fender stereo rig. Hopefully that helps, I don't understand the science but think it's an available headroom per channel thing. \m/('o',)\m/ Rock on
Cool Dave. Congrats on the pedal board. Clear to o see/notice you're happy and excited. But. Is it the purple (Dracula) room, ? or the F amp. ? 🤔 So much difference compare to the black room upstairs. 😉 I Like the black room vibe so much more. Cool to see/hear the "62 again. 👍🏽👌🏽🎸❤
dude trust me, frusciante's tone is really just a dirty clean marshall and a strat. I run my JCM 900 on dirty with the gain pretty low and it does the trick. (:
loved this episode. I'm not an especially huge fan of the Chili Peppers. I have a great respect for their musicianship and their knack for writing a hook. I did watch Live at Bonnaroo. Having a general familiarity with them - I was particularly paying I was trying to pay attention to John on guitar. Something seemed a bit off. The edits for the first handful of songs seemed to not let me in on the fact that it was actually Josh Klinghoffer playing. They even had him dress kind of like what John may have worn. He kind moved around like John in 1989. I felt let down by that and cut out about half way through the film. Might have been a little too judgemental, but I just wasn't feeling it. Josh was a great player - nothing against him. The whole thing didn't sit well with me though. Seemed to be a little contrived David; Have you considered doing a part 2 to of My Guitar Heroes Dave Murray ? Cheers
I have to run my DS-2 in the same or it just will not work, I’ve got a John tone or close enough on a SubZero SA-60. Would love to see a video on each of his live tones as well :)
Hello Dave,congratulations on your work and your music, you can see that you do all this with passion and dedication. I've followed pretty much all of your videos on how to get the Frusciante sound and I'm almost there. in a video you said that you rely on your pedals to recreate the sound because obviously you can't always have your favorite amp available. In my case I have this amp: DV Mark Jazz 12 can you give me some advice on how to set it up? if I put the volume of the ds 2 to 10 there is a jump in volume too large but if I keep it more I lose the characteristic sound of the ds 2 (as you teach ^^). Thanks for your time and keep it up! 😊 Federico
Salut Dave. It’s the first time I ask a question for the Q&A, I don’t know where I should post it, so I leave it here. I’m a total fender nerd, especially offsets (teenager in the 90s, you know...). I love your music, your playing, your chanel, personnality, everything! But still, I just cant pass over the fact that you dont like Jazzmasters :-) So my question is; Will you give that guitar another chance one day? Wish you all the best. Julien
First found your channel through your Gretsch Billy-Bo demo, and loved your playing. Later discovered how deep your Frusciante influence goes, so that makes sense - he's my guitar hero. Amazing playing. Quick question for you - have you ever found a noiseless strat pickup that you like for Frusciante tones? I know John doesn't use noiseless, but I've seen you pull Frusciante tones out of ceramic strat pickups so I figure a noiseless one isn't a big leap!
Hello, I have planned to buy the Boss DS2 but I have a fender champions 20 and I use the Boss SD1 to get a crunchy tone similar to the frusciante, do you think that using the sd1 + ds2 I will get that fuzzy tone that John gets with the ds2?
If i was you, i would have got the phase 95. 4 phasers in one little incredible box (it has the 2-stage phase 45 and the 4-stage phase 90. Both of these can be changed to script and block logo sounds)
First of all, you are a wizard. This is incredible!!!❤️ I have one question, I have these pedals but also the jackhammer, where would you add it on this pedal set? In what order???🙏🏻
What pickups did John use in 1999 time frame, also I love John's solo album To Record only water for ten days was wondering what he used for that recording?
Great vid Dave, thanks!! Did you put the wah after the distortion and the fuzz on purpose, and why? I always put mine in front of the overdrive and the distortion 'cause that's what most of the people tell you to do
Hey Dave, binge watching your vids lately. You mention a single channel amp needs a boost before the rest of the pedals. I have a Victory V40 (yeah, I know you're not a fan) but I wonder if you could recommend a pedal which would help to boost the signal/tone before I close my eyes and go into pedal heaven. I know I'm replying to an old vid but I hope you get the opportunity to reply. Cheers Dave.
@@thedavesimpson Thanks so much for your quick reply. I really appreciate that. I'll be putting a mxr Micro amp in front of the chain. Thanks again Sir, you're a Star!
Hey dave, I just got a PastFX chorus and love it to bits! One weird thing I noticed is that when I run it on high mode, my wah pedal sounds really weird and filtered if that makes sense. On low mode however it sounds perfectly normal. I'm just wondering if you experienced anything similar? I know there's a couple extra settings inside the pedal that I could switch like the buffer and whatnot that might somehow be affecting it? I'm not sure though.
@@thedavesimpson Thanks for the reply, Dave! It's weird because even when the level is turned really low on high mode the wah still sounds really quiet and filtered. But it's technically made for keyboards so it's not a shocker that it might be finicky with other guitar pedals. It seems like John even used it on low mode at times anyway :).
Hi Dave, unfortunately pastfx chorus is too expensive for me. I have Boss Katana MK2 50, Boss DS-2 and Ibanez WH10. Which chorus pedal would you recommend to use instead of this pedal for the John Frusciante tone? P.S. I love u ❤
Hi Dave, I experienced something similar with the DS-2 and I think it’s because of the CE-1. I use the CE-1 crunch section from Will Galluccio, which should be an exact clone like yours from PastFx. If I run it in high mode and it gets pushed by that volume jump from an maxed out DS-2, then I also get that washed out tone with some really unpleasant harshness. I lowered the level so far that the DS2 doesn’t higher the initial volume too much and it was fine. I didn’t had this problem with other overdrives like the Jackhammer, so I think it’s the CE-1 that doesn’t like to be pushed
I somehow experienced better & precise (less muffled) DS-2 tones with a less overdriven amp. Like a Marshall amp really on the edge of break up. For example: I have a jcm800 studio, the more I turn up the gain, the worse my ds2 sounds. You really have to find a sweetspot. Pedals like the Jackhammer just don‘t work for me, because they wash out the ds2 & it’s just dark. I guess when you’re not using a really compressing amp you have to turn down the level of the ds a little bit :)
Which Triungulo Lab Ce-1 crunch version are you using? there earlier versions operated off +/-9v which is different to the original.(have not seen latest offerings ) So I do not believe they are exactly the same. Their full chorus Pedal however runs off the correct internal voltages.
Second hand The DS2 would be around 65-80 it depends how good condition it is, the phase 90 would be max 65, the triangulo labs wound be around 250 new, the WH10 would be kind expensive same with the FZ3. If you want a reasonable recreation that gets majority of his material I’d say the DS2, the Boss CE2W as it has a CE1 sound, a big muff, micro amp and a WH10V3 all second hand and that would get around 65-70 of the material and max around 450
@@fauthyfernandez4762 micro amp isn't necessary in this pedalboard as John didn't use it during Californication tour, probably I would go for jackhammer or golden plexi for the crunchy always on
Awesome playing, I really adore your skills & dedication! Tone wise, the DS-2 sounds really dark & „muffled“ to me. I thought John‘s DS-2 was a little brighter & clearer. But maybe I‘m wrong :)
Hi Dave, how come this board requires you to set most of the knobs at 12' o clock, like you mentioned? Is it because of the fender amp? I remember that you would normally max out the ds2, wh10 etc.
I think ce1 gives so much characteristic sound that every other pedal can breath freely without need to be maxed out, yeah ce1 is the reason i think. well in this case pastfx, and Fenders can be nassal with pedals to opposite of Marshall who eats pedals
@@levijessegonzalez3629 I have. Both awesome but the pastfx is instantly like… wow, yup, that’s the sound.. I went with the cheaper mini version… spoke with the builder he said it’s identical and not one person in a blind test has been able to tell the difference… the preamp is the same and I believe that’s where the magic is

@@levijessegonzalez3629 I have. Both awesome but the pastfx is instantly like… wow, yup, that’s the sound.. I went with the cheaper mini version… spoke with the builder he said it’s identical and not one person in a blind test has been able to tell the difference… the preamp is the same and I believe that’s where the magic is
@@jadeblanco2896 thanks!
@@levijessegonzalez3629 you bet! They also make just the preamp in a pedal too
anybody know the song at 27.39 thanks
To better suit tone for Californication era of DS2 everything should be at noon on pedal
I bet you have more guitars than dishes and furniture.
Sold me your boss fz3 !😁
