That Pedal Show - Mid-Scooped & Mid-Pushed Amps: What Do We Mean? Plus: Amp-In-A-Box Pedals Tested

Life too short for long KZfaq videos? Please see the ‘Interesting bits and go-to sections’ information below.
In this episode we tackle a tricky subject - and indeed our preconceptions - in terms of two particular phrases we use a lot on That Pedal Show: ’mid-scooped’ and mid-pushed’ when it comes to guitar amplifiers.
For example, you may hear us describing the classic Fender sound as having ‘scooped mids’, or the Marshall sound as having ‘pushed mids’. They are terms that have become accepted wisdom… but what do we actually mean?
We demonstrate some key guitar freqeuncies with the help of a graphic equalizer, before moving on to comparisons between a Marshall 1987x (50-watt Plexi), a Vox AC30 and a Fender Super Reverb. As we discover, with the amps in their clean states the differences are nowhere near as pronounced as they are under overdrive from pedals.
The last section of the video concerns ‘amp-in-a-box’ style pedals vis a vis changing the basic character of one amp to sound like another. Can it be done?
Enjoy the video…

Guys, the bit on frequencies with the EQ pedal is without a doubt one of the most essential bits of information you have ever put into a video. I kind of can't believe you waited so long to do it. Knowing and understanding frequencies is the secret of going from, "Something doesn't sound right here," to "Ready to go".

This is probably my favorite thing to watch now. You guys are so good at producing this. The edits are perfect and appropriate without being so heavy handed and distracting. Either Dan and Mick are getting more comfortable playing on a video or they're getting better and better at playing, not that they weren't always great players. Between Dan's relevant knowledge of the pedal building and what goes where and what goes better with this and why vs what Mick has picked up from working the industry, where this came from and what that means etc.. I'm about to have a whole closet full of these damn shirts.

So far this has worked on a Cali76, Muffroom Cloud, and CBA Brothers. Dan was right though! To be fair any very nice flexible drive with MIDI control was gonna sell itself to me at that point though, but the other two were definitely a TPS inspired prod. Just bought a new amp though so I'm very much enjoying this is a "principles" episode, rather than a "look at all this cool stuff you could buy" episode. If only I could buy the fingers Landreth! :D

Thanks for this guys. I own the DLS and run it in Super Bass mode at 18v into a NOS Tweed Blues Junior, with preamp set between 9-12 o'clock. Not sure how "Marhsally" it is, but it definitely changes the feel of the amp, and fuzzes seem to react better than just straight into the amp. I would love to see the modes of the DLS explored in a future video. Cheers!

A lot of fun going on there. Interesting that the guitar that drew out the differences in the amps best was Dan's Telecaster. Suggestion: If you can lay your hands on them Catalinbreads' 'Foundation Overdrive' series would make for a fascinating follow up to this episode. I own a Formula 5 and a Formula 5e4 - the former does an amazing 'small tweed on the edge of disintegration' sound whilst the latter adds a nice clean-ish Bassman character to your tone. Much as I'd love to own a selection of classic amps I just don't have the space so pedals and a Victory V40 seems the next best alternative to me. As/when/if you get around to it I'd love to hear your take on these pedals.

I think the stock EQ plug-in with the analyzer engaged should be detailed enough. Perhaps the differences simply aren't that massive visually, but it really only takes a couple of dB's up or down for our ears to pick it up, particularly in the mid range. Have a good weekend lads!

Coming back on the pickup request, some kind of tonal overview of each of the major and semi major types / tone groups, also with things like the history of the Strat selector switch, how Strat single coils differ from Teles, differences between say 50s, 60s & 70s pickup sounds, etc. along with the common mods (humbuckers in Tele neck, LP humbuckers split, out of phase, etc.), would be great & super useful. Especially considering swapping out pickups is something many try as a first or second mod. Thanks.

+Dean Johnston There’s Something here Dean. Certainly in a basic comparison. Trouble is, contrary to a lot of the crap you might read online, the host guitar makes a massive difference, so you’re never comparing apples with apples. That said, there are definitely some generalities that would be bloomin’ useful and interesting to demo. Not least for me and Dan... thanks as ever for watching!
@deanjohnston104 6 жыл бұрын
Hiya! Yeah, I get your drift, a lot of variables in the mix. Still, it could be informative; perhaps along the lines of the current "mid scooped vs pushed' episode, where some assumptions might get reconsidered. Incidentally, I noted on the recent Anderton's blindfold challenge with Lee Anderton playing Strats, that while he instantly identified the one with a humbucker in the bridge position, he still posed it as a question - "Oh, is that a humbucker?" as opposed to 'Hey, that's a humbucker!' At the time I thought that was interesting. Cheers.

From Andy Timmons fender clean with a strat to guns n roses on a Les Paul or Foo fighters ac30. It's so good and can come much much closer than any of those pedals, and is perfect for when you only have room and money for a single amp, but like a diverse range of music and love tone.

Shoving the stick farther-not further!-up my ass... Technically, all these amps cut mids as compared to no tone stack. The Marshall attentuates mids the least. It's also worth noting that "mids" is centered around 800Hz in the Marshall and Vox and more like 600Hz for the Fender.

Dan & Mick, have you thought about getting a sound/guitar tech in, to talk about venue set up issues ? How many of us have been to a gig where the sound was really bad with very unhappy musicians ? And how may gigs have we been to where the sound is amazing and musicians are really enjoying themselves with no issues. I have been to a venue where one band had fantastic sound quality and another band on a different night had awful sound. Is the band using amps/set up etc that are wrong for the venue or is it the techs fault ?

That Pedal Show were you running the EQ on 9 volts or 18? I accidentally ran mine on 9 instead of 18 and the sliders didn’t light up, but it also sounded a lot different.

Benjamin Thorpe Run your own tests. You have the amp - describe what you think is it's character. Make a video and tell us if you like or dislike it

How appropriate. I spent the day trying different combinations of mid-pushed & scooped pedals and/or amp settings. Best tone I got was a Tube Screamer (set SRV-style) into a Blues Driver with the tone rolled back and a fairly flat (relatively speaking, ofc) Bassbreaker15. Classic pedals! Gonna try a Jetter Red Shift next week.

It's serious when you're using the guitar to point at things.

Just reading the title, I expected two things: An EQ pedal and a spectrum analyzer. You did realize you needed a EQ pedal, but I think it would’ve helped a lot to have a spectrum analyzer too. Not only to show us a visual representation to go along with what we’re hearing, but it probably would have helped you dial some things in quicker.
