@TTH great description. I'm stealing that phrase.

@The Tired Horizon Well, man, that's just your opinion. Plenty of my favorite records used Metal Zone across the board. Like, uh, "Now That's What I Call Metal Zoned!" for instance.

i really hope this guy is kidding

Muff. Siamese Dream is proof of concept. Corgan: "Everything [on that album]...went through a Muff at some point in the process" I choose to believe that incudes drums - and Jimmy Chamberlin's drug stash. He probably put it in a Muff when they went through Customs.

@@richardmills5326 I believe that was Mr Carlisle's point!

Phil Gallagher shit yep I realize that now

Ditto. I have absolutely no problem with a manufacturer demo-ing their products, hell I'm impressed that JHS usually talks about other people's pedals, why they're great and how to use them. If you make an awesome device, you get to show it off on your channel if you want to. Please more.

Yeah, I'm usually meh with JHS pedals (even if I enjoy the channel), but they struck gold with the Colour Box.

I watched a lot of videos from this channel before I realised its a pedal company! Absolute respect to them for being a genuine pedal channel first.

You rule. Brilliant. :-) :-)

In the grand scheme of things, you're really seeing the big picture. Definitely not missing the forest for the trees. When all else fails, go back to the source.

Nah, natural compression and losing dynamics are two drastically different things.

@@ileutur6863 Yup.... determined by the price tag.

@@thebigpicture2455 no, determined by what you hear and feel but whatever

I actually said that out loud when I heard it.

Most people don’t realize that the minimal 2 microphone technique is very effective. Many classic albums were recorded that way

@@ramencurry6672 spend a half hour placing the mics right where you want them, or 5 hours messing w spot mics

I’m listening to this on my iPhone loudspeaker and those drums are constantly there in the mix even with the ducking in the video. crazy good sound

Is that you Nick?!?!

thanks, Nicks Mom!

I bail when he’s on.

Blue wig needs to be in the merch shop in time for Halloween

Bingo.

Exactly.

This comment made me buy this pedal instantly. I’m a poor man that wanted a Neve 1073

Yes!

My signal path on almost everything is Colourbox V1 --> Empress Compressor --> Audio Interface Not cheap. But about the most affordable way too get a real analog 1073 style preamp and FET compressor.

1955 Les Paul Gold top w/ P90s . With GHS Boomers 10.5 13 17 30 40 50. Yes, I’m changing a lot of strings during Quarantine Lockdown

Gibson 1955 Les Paul Goldtop David’s perhaps most famous Les Paul is his 1955 Goldtop. This was used to record several guitar parts on The Wall and most notably the solo on Another Brick in the Wall (part 2). David would also use the guitar on the The Wall tour in 1980-81 while performing Happiest Days of Our Lives, occasionally the Another Brick 2 solo switching from the Black Strat used on the rhythm parts, One of My Turns and Last Few Bricks. - (left) David pictured during the latter part of the Wall tour with the 1955 Goldtop. (right) A second Gold Top, this one is a 1956 featuring a Bigsby tremolo bridge as seen at Royal Albert Hall, London, UK, 30 May 2006. The ’55 Goldtop was also used throughout the 80s and 90s - on a couple of tracks on Momentary Lapse of Reason, among these Round and Around and Poles Apart and A Great Day For Freedom from Division Bell. The guitar was displayed at the 2003-04 Interstellar Exhibition in it’s original case among David’s Wall pedal boards and other guitars. It was last seen used on the Island Blues jam that were filmed in David’s barn and released as a teaser for On An Island December 23 2005. The Les Paul Goldtop has a bronze metallic finish mahogany body with a maple top and binding. The neck is mahogany with an ebony fretboard and binding. David’s 1955 model feature a “wrap around” tailpiece and two P-90 pickups with white covers.

Gibson 1956 Les Paul Goldtop David’s second Les Paul Goldtop is more or less identical to the 1955 model with the exception of a Bigsby bridge with tremolo. Originally the guitar came with a “tune-o-matic” bridge, which Gibson introduced with the 1956 models. It’s not known when Gilmour got this guitar and whether the Bigsby was custom fitted before or after he got it. The ’56 was used on several songs on On An Island - notably the first part of the first solo on the title track and This Heaven. David also used the guitar on the 2006 tour while performing This Heaven. It was again used at the special performance of Island Jam at the Odeon cinema theatre in London, UK, in September 2007 for the premiere of the Remember That Night DVD release. The guitar was last used on the recording (and performance) of the track Chicago in support of Gary McKinnon together with Chrissie Hynde and Bob Geldorf in 2009 and on the track Song to the Siren off Bryan Ferry’s album Olympia (2010).

@@peterwelsh1932 yes! 55 with the wraparound bridge! My mistake!

@@JoseCarbia love that people always think that is a strat and not a les paul with p90s!

I always thought that was Nick in a blue wig. Still not sure.... Matching up the facial hair.

@@randyhollandsworth626 nope, not even close. Sounds nothing like him. Albert has the voice of an angel, like a combination of Fergie and Jesus.

How is that a benefit? The don't have 9v battery option. So if an adapter is already required then 18v almost always offers pedals more headroom and generally better operation.

@@montag4516 I think it's a benefit because most people use 9v adapters

I hella, totally, for sure would have purchased the song before it was even over had it been available.

I'm digging this song so hard XD

Me too! I revisit this video just to listen to it.

Check out Matthew Dear - Deserter. Basically the same song.

Yup!

I have a Supro and I love it. But I'll ALWAYS cover the blackface Princeton.

A few years back my buddy owned a place called the Gear Trader. It was new and used and vintage and it was just incredible the stuff that would come through. One of my favorite combinations was 4 Princeton's... 3 insanely clean brown and one w/reverb, at the tail-end, I think a silver face. Into the first hi input then out of the second lo into the first hi of the next amp and so on... With a tube screamer thrown in for a little hot sauce. It was sort of jaw-dropping you could just move and sustain notes everywhere, which is something that we would go for hooking up all kinds of different amps and speakers, but the Princeton's were so right I believe because of the volume. We could get that sustain out of any number of amps but they were usually higher output and the volume would kill you. So so bummed when he closed.

@@LTJR. - If you'd have PURCHASED the Princetons he'd still be open...

Alec Mirzametov Pond are better than Tame ;)

Tame Impala is the new Nickleback

@@veerchasm1 blasphemy

@@veerchasm1 my girlfriend loves that "bedroom indie dream pop" style and I dig the style as well yet their is very little deviation in most of the groups/artist's I've heard that fall under that genre and they all are sound pretty much the same. Innerspeaker is Tame's best album by a wide margin in my opinion, nothing he's released has really come close to their debut album.

So we'll hunt him. Because he can take it. Because he's not our rockstar. He's a noisy spokesman, a sonic projector. A Nick at Knight.

Nick is a complete musician. I'm envious, and yet happy for him.

Shitty recordings in his apartment to full on dance music. Love it all.

Ok.

The price on the quadrapog is insane

Maxon Mendel - would you believe he got the Pog for only 120 dollars? A Guitar Center near him bought it in as a regular Pog and had the price listed as such lol

You can want to buy it with money I don’t have if that helps to switch things up a bit for you.

@ivebeen ah yes, the non-existent amount. Will do :D

A douchey comment in all caps...super douchey!

You're a little late. Wikipedia - Colourbox were an English electronic musical group on the 4AD label, releasing a number of records between 1982 and 1987. The band was formed by brothers Martyn and Steve Young, Ian Robbins, and vocalist Debbion Currie. Currie and Robbins left the band in 1983, with the role of vocalist being filled by Lorita Grahame.

@@lolobuggah2670 it still can

LOL Thats gotta be like using performance enhancing drugs

They're going to ban the use of them like my high school banned everyone from citing wikipedia in their research papers.

@Regular Joseph I didn't get the sense he was killing it, ya know, teacher's salaries. But yeah, I did, and it actually made me a much better guitarist.

@Regular Joseph No worries man. It's different for everybody, right? I am learning at 48 that I actually have a pretty decent ear but just the structure of how I ended up learning guitar made me reliant on tab for learning and then just finger-dexterity and muscle-memory. I never TRIED to learn things by ear. Now that I am, which is entirely because of the Berklee Online classes, I'm learning that it comes pretty easy to me. Wish I'd done it 30 years ago. But also having to practice a piece over and over and over again to be critiqued by a professional really helped me to focus on the nuance of playing that I hardly ever noticed before and certainly couldn't do. At my age, I play for myself, but I am the harshest critic of me there is so actually getting genuinely good at music is worth some actual money.

@Regular Joseph Well done.
