    Sweetwater challenged Josh Scott to name as many guitar pedals as he could while blindfolded. And, of course, Josh proved himself to be the Matt Murdock of pedal nerds! Be sure to watch more Sweetwater guitar content here 👉 czcams.com/play/PLlczpwSXEOyawnqcGGaOafZ9vOf08KcMF.html

      Give Josh a Behringer Bi-Phase to review against one of the Mutrons.... please. ;)

      I was wondering if there was gonna be a early Daredevil reference.

    This was disgustingly impressive

    The absolute insane depth of Josh's knowledge on full display

    This takes, “meticulously obsessing over details no one should care about,” to new heights!

    Dude this is legit like watching a superhero demonstrate their powers! Absolutely unreal! Was hoping you would give him a Morning Glory lol

    Josh is so fun and kind-hearted. This was a really fun watch!

      Agreed. He's great. I love watching the JHS show.

    He wasn't joking when he said "I think I was born for this" and "I feel insanely powerful"

    Josh Scott does not have a problem

  • @ck2music712
    @ck2music712 Před 2 lety +54

    Okay, so, hear me out; Since this IS actually awesome content, you guys should do another one of these, where you ask blindfolded people to identify pedal by JUST the SOUND... C'mon, I've bought like 10 pedals from Sweetwater in the past year, lol...

    • @waitin4winter
      @waitin4winter Před 2 lety +3

      That’s what I thought this was going to be lol

  • @ricdotdev
    @ricdotdev Před 2 lety +9

    When you think about it, this is not just a demonstration of Josh's pedal knowledge, but also his knowledge of the people around him. 🙂

  • @AndiKravljaca
    @AndiKravljaca Před 2 lety +11

    People have been telling me for years that it's all in the feel. This is a new spin on that.

  • @johnboleyjr.1698
    @johnboleyjr.1698 Před 2 lety +10

    For the follow-up video, hand this man uncased circuit boards, and have him intentify them.

  • @gaetandube3036
    @gaetandube3036 Před 2 lety +18

    Welcome to my world!
    I am a blind guitarist and I have such a hard time identifying with knobs on my petals and amps… It would be easier for me if knobs had a notch or pointer where I can tell where 12 o’clock position is … if EQ controls on an amp would be grouped such as different spacing isolating base mid treble isolating them from other controls. This could benefit everyone playing in a dark environment anyways… Great performance you put up there! Congratulations! Impressive!

    • @grantandrews4826
      @grantandrews4826 Před 2 lety +2

      You could always grab some chickenhead knobs and swap em! :)

  • @LightningDogg
    @LightningDogg Před 2 lety +18

    Un frickin believable!!🏆 I'll give him the other .5! 👑
    Please don't make Josh do a part 2. It would only be a letdown after this.

    To say I'm impressed would be an understatement. That was kind of insane!

  • @jaimeacasta
    @jaimeacasta Před 2 lety +16

    Here's a challenge! 8 pedals, 8 effects, 8 companies... put together a pedalboard using 8 different effects from 8 different companies, I'd like to know what can Josh and the team can come up with! Btw, I love JHS so freaking much!!

  • @gibsonend
    @gibsonend Před 2 lety +5

    Amazing. Josh's own channel is a wealth of knowledge in nerd form, exemplified here. If you've ever played his pedals, you can tell he knows his craft. This just proves it.

    • @stevescuba1978
      @stevescuba1978 Před 2 lety +1
