Could we test a vintage tuner vs. a Behringer tuner? J/K-this is hilarious!

I've never felt more like a boomer than trying to get my head around this kind person's tuning.

Someone tune this nice gentlemen's guitar for him.

When he played the second vibrato I burst out laughing

True story, I owned one of the Boss VB-2s around 1990 or so. Hated it, and traded it for quarter sack of weed.

I love Josh’s shit-eating grin when he picked the Morning Glory lol

Watching everybody in the chat having simultaneous aneurysms when this guy starts to play is making me laugh harder than I have in a long time.

I love that you did this show the day the band was playing in town. It reminds me of back in the day, when radio stations would broadcast from the parking lot of the arena the day of show. Even if you couldn't go to the concert, you felt like you were a part of it. (And the station would play the band's music all day!)

Those behringers are insane perfect copies of the Boss stomp boxes it’s wild.

Tune the guitar, we should all get prizes for watching this

We were blessed with so many videos this week, thank you!

i legitimately thought it was a “thing” that Idles detunes their guitars. I was like “damn that’s kinda cool even though it doesn’t sound good.”

Thank you, JHS and Lee, for introducing me to Buc-ee's. It actually sounds pretty magical. We got nothing like it, in Sydney, Australia.

That vibrato segment had me crying from laughter. I needed that.

I love this show. Please do it more often 🙏😊

I’m just gonna say this right now, Joy as an Act of Resistance is the greatest punk album of the millennial generation. Thanks Lee and thanks JHS!!

Dear Mr Scott, This is an excellent show format, I f'in love when you do these types of videos. Best guitar channel on KZfaq by a long shot. Not to be a sycophant but these videos have been so helpful for me to learn and realize how much I didn't really know about pedals. Between these blind comparisons and the one about behringer and caline, tc electronics, joyo and similar I've been able to acquire very good sounding pedals for very low investments. It's not that I wouldn't just buy your pedals because even for $100 to $250 they are excellent quality and totally worth it. But, I'm unable to invest that much because I'm permanently disabled and on a fixed income. But, because of your honesty and decency I've been able to acquire excellent substitute clones that I would have never been able to know what to get and how to make them work together so well without years of trial and error and wasted money. It's truly been a great help to someone who is disadvantaged and unable to acquire your excellent products. The bonsai pedal may be the single greatest pedal idea ever and ends any gear debates about which tubescreamer circuit to buy. What you guys do I greatly appreciate, thank you.

I love that he doesn’t care that his guitar is so out of tune it’s almost unplayable. He. Doesn’t. Care. Also IDLES we’re amazing at The Truman! Incredible show! He was “in tune” for the whole show. I think. Didn’t matter. They were amazing.

Seeing Lee on here has me more pumped than I’ve ever been to watch a JHS video

Thanks Josh. Made me smile, several times. Morning Glory was my first JHS pedal.

Based on the guitar tuning and guitar playing, I have actually no idea what any of these pedals really sound like! Maybe next time.

Gotta make more "Can You Hear?"! Very informative and fun to watch! Definitely need a decibel meter to make sure the levels are matched though. Good job! Lots of fun!

Keep up these comparisons videos. They are great!

Absolutely love these comparisons. Watched all the episodes of can you hear it so far.

Lee really rocking the Garth from Wayne’s World aesthetic and I’m here for it.

This series of videos are pretty interesting. But in this one I think the first pedal to compare should have been a vintage versus a modern tuner.

This one killed me, hilarious. Lee needs in more episodes, the interactions between Josh & Lee is perfect

Nice one JHS and Lee, love this show format and Idles are a class band that I don’t think many viewers actually know about judging by the comments. Great shout from Lee on compressor pedals, I bought one few years ago cos I thought I needed one when building my pedalboard, fell into the guitarist pedalboard trap again!! I soon took it off my board, got rid of it and will never play with one again! Definitely an unnecessary and unneeded pedal, takes away all your playing dynamics, plus now there’s more space on the pedalboard for another useful pedal. As Lee said compressors need to be used in the studio when recording which when recording I always use compressors but I’ll never use a compressor pedal for live playing again. Top show again thanks you always bring me at least 30mins of pleasure and a bit of silly humour in my week, keep it coming cheers.

I can tell you what pedal they need to let this guy try,, a chromatic tuner!

IDLES is hands down, the BEST band in 2022. Anyone doubting should listen to THE WHEEL, or MEDICATION. Thank you JHS

Were you guys secretly testing a detuner pedal?

Vibrato pedals are great at being barely on, for that tape warble effect. I recently bought the flamma modulation pedal and I love the vibrato on it. It sounds like my dl4 with the tape warble.

The UV300 has been my secret weapon for a while. Control it with the footswitch while using a heavy fuzz, and you get this massive, liquid wall of sound that works well for shoegaze, but even some other styles as well. Hopefully, Sweetwater doesn't jack the prices up on these.

Would be great to test it again with guitarist

21 minutes in: "do you wanna take a second to tune?"

Love the show. More pros like Lee in!!!

I have two Behringer UV300 modded with switchable slow rate mod. Sounds killer, absolutely recommend it.

My Pulp -n - Peal literally was delivered the day this aired, and it has already been a game changer for my Bass board .I honestly don't know how Josh almost always uses single coil pick ups ,and doesn't use a comp! I have one on every guitar ,and Bass board I've ever built. My motto is "Compressors don't make cool sounds ,Compressors make you sound cool ".

I got a bunch of Behringer pedals when local shop sold them cheap, kept only the Vibrato and the spectrum enhancer. They both are amazing!

I don't think you guys even needed to plug his headphones in. Seems like a chill guy, but I don't think his ear is his strongest weapon.

Thanks Lee Kiernan for being part of the JHS fun.

This should have been titled "Can You Bear It?" Unfortunately, I could not.

One word for this episode: TUNE!

I got the Behringer vibrato on Josh’s recommendation in the Behringer video. It’s a great pedal. A lot of folks are concerned about the plastic housing. And I totally get that. I gig with their Tubescreamer regularly and haven’t had any issues with reliability. And the TO800 sounds just like a TS808.

I lived at 2130 N. Pacific until last year. That’s directly across the street from Larry. I know him well. He still jams out on his guitar, in case you are wondering. But he primarily plays bass now. I’m still in contact with my old neighbors. I’ll make sure someone lets him know JHS has his pedal.

Topo Chico has been my primary drink for years. The Behringer was just as good tone-wise as the Boss.

I want SO MANY of these! Let's test ALL the Behringers!

"Everytime you eat at Subway you take a risk; We are not sponsored by Subway". - hilarious.

IDLES are crazy - in a good way. Accurate tuning seems to be secondary, or even tertiary, consideration in their playing. If being a bit "off" makes their music a little bit more annoying, I think they're for it. They're not out to give anyone the warm fuzzies.

I'm with Addison, Vibrato is a great modulation. I've come to really dig it, but it's a 2 for me behind the glory mindfxck of PHASER...

I play mostly acoustic but bought a bunch of Behringer pedals during covid when Sweetwater had them marked down. I wanted to know what various pedals did. My thought process at the time was, "an octave pedal for under $20.00?" Send it to me now! They have all been great fun. Given the adjustment knobs on my guitar, the amp, and the pedals I believe most pedals can be useful in the right context. Keep up the great work!

A Collab I never thought I'd get but I knew I needed

IDLES are incredible and Ian seemed rad. Thoroughly enjoyed this episode

Had to stop this video to check out the Idles, as a band I love what they are doing but honestly couldn't stand listening to another moment of him playing by himself. I guess there is a reason why punk artists seldom venture into solo records.

i like using compressors as an effect if you have a lot of compression, there's this really satisfying thing the notes do when you have the amp set super clean and i love it. it sounds even better when the amp has a little bit of meat to it, whether it's from a boost, or boosting the amp with the output of the comp, or turning up your amp i don't do it all the time, but it sounds cool to use when you want a nice bluesy clean sound it's kinda similar to the another brick in the wall solo tone

4 JHS Pedal Shows in a week. Best. Week. Ever.

That little 20$ pedal is my favorite thing I have on my pedal board. I've tried to replace it many times but never do.

I agree that IDLES guitar parts aren't particularly challenging, but their songs are all good. They get so much mileage out of just a few notes, a few chords, and some simple rhythms. And they have such a unique sound. They really stand out.

i just saw idles live a few weeks ago and they were amazing

This is the best crossover episode I’ve ever watched

No offense or anything, but this episode was a pretty big confidence boost. That guy is in a famous band that other musicians heap praise on. Maybe there's still hope for some of us.

As far as compression goes, I’ve gone back and forth on whether or not I need mine on my board. I’ve been an always on compressor guy with every comp I’ve ever owned. I currently use the Walrus Deep 6. This is pretty much the only conclusion I’ve been able to reach: When it’s on, I don’t necessarily hear the difference. But when it’s off, I definitely do. So I keep it on my board and never turn it off. That being said, if you have a compressor, do what you want with it. Keep it always on, turn it off if you want. If you don’t have one and don’t want one, don’t worry about it I guess? 🤷🏼‍♂️

We need much more of Lee.

I have the behringer vibrato it’s amazing. I bought a bunch of their pedals for 20 when they lowered the price.

Compare amp over drive and pedal overdrive 😀👍🏻 Also how come you don’t compare heavy distortion? I really wish you guys played djent 🥹 I love the show 😊 I’ve been binge watching them all lol I bought the fault v2 because of your video 😀 I wanted to try the horsey pedal and it says it can also do djent 😊 I’m waiting for it to be in stock 🥲

The tuning is hard to get past.

I have a 2nd generation (black screw) Japanese Boss CE-2 and a Japanese Boss HF-2 (black screw) on my pedalboard. Should I be wearing gloves now every time I handle them?

Come for the informative pedal comparison, stay for the hilarious banter!

maybe shouldve compared (and used) tuner pedals from the getgo..

They haven't had a $5 footlong in like 15 years

I searched for jhs CAN YOU HEAR IT!! and I didn't find this video. Please make sure you tag or put it in the description. I llloooovcveeeeee these videos

I'm just excited to hear how to use this pedal. I built the byoc equivalent, but its not very subtle...

Joy as an act of resistance got me into punk, they're incredible live and fantastic people! JHS are legends and so is Lee!

Could he A-B a tuner? Oh and the strings bleeding through his mic are kinda annoying. That said, I loved this vid!

Great show. I think you got a winner with the guest contestant

You are doing the Lords work Josh!

Really should have tested a tuner pedal.

I tried to watch the whole thing, but couldn't for obvious reasons.

So I'm excited to watch this though even seeing the thumb nail - I owned the UV for years and it sounds AMAZING! The problem - the switch WILL fail and it'll be a PITA to get it fixed... then you buy the VB-2 like you have some sense. LOL

After the number of tuning comments I lost it at the end of the video when they said 'Thanks for tuning in'

OMG 😯 Whose bright idea was it to bring this guy on to play guitar? Yikes 🤢 Still love your videos BTW 🙋‍♂️

I actually got into that behringer vibrato, thanks to Juan Alderete (Racer X, The Mars Volta, Big Sir, Vato Negro, Marilyn Manson) and his OG pedal KZfaq show "Pedals and Effects". If it is good enough for him, its good enough for me. And mine still hasnt break. Hurray

the sounds are super close, but i would always go for the boss/mxr etc for the reliability and longevity.

Lee's an actual musician and I like his band and all but saying that a compressor is something that makes your sound a bit louder is a gross understatement. The compressor will even your dynamics making quiet parts louder and viceversa, thus allowing your sound to get generally louder but it is a consequence of this and not the only thing happening.

Next time you invite someone to play please make sure they can actually play!!!!😅😊😮😎

I sold my JHS Angry Charly and Charlie Brown V4 because my Marshall Guv'nor sounds better. I sold my JHS Bonsai because my 1980 TS808, my 1984 TS-9, my 1986 TS-10, my 1979 Boss OD-1 and my 1980 OD-1 sound better. I sold my JHS 808 for the same reason, and also the Moonshine V1. I did'nt compare my JHS Morning Glory V1 against the Marshall BluesBreaker, but I sold it also. Don't get me wrong, all JHS Pedals sounded good, but my originals just sounded better, otherwise I would have kept the JHS Pedals. Same with the Keeley Pedals, with one exeption: I still own an Keeley A/B-looper.

Awesome! My ultimate cheep pedalboard now has two pedals! I already had this one!

Choose your guests wisely

Simultaneously the best and worst of these "Can you Hear it?" shows. Trying to swing - schedule-wise - seeing Idels, either in Boston or NYC. If you are unfamiliar with them, I suggest their From the Basement appearance available here on youtube.

I've built a Morning Glory pedal, I know the only difference between the actual Bluesbreaker and a Morning Glory is that the latter is louder. Different input cap and an output recovery stage for more volume. When in doubt always pick the softer pedal as the vintage one.

Great show. Lee, Montreal awaits.

must not have gotten enough Josh Scott today. just got done with the new sweetwater pedalboard video featuring Josh Scott. and now I'm here. I hope this doesn't turn into a thing where I need jhs in iv fluid version. I'm just not used to so much of one thing.

I’ll stick up for compressors. They can be awesome… just never as an “always on.” I use mine when I want to make things “smoother”, get clean sustain, sweeten a cleaner tone. The second I want to play with the dynamics of the amp again tho, that puppy’s off!

His playing is challenging

How close is the Mooer Blues Crab to the real Marshall Blues Breaker? I don’t like compressors but I like sustain from compressors.

Bought the behringer analog delay because of this channel. Best $19 spent.

Love the channel. Love IDLES. Lee is awesome. If I could make one request though, it would be someone tries to match the pedals as close as you can before filming. Maybe give them 5 minutes as well. I guess thats 2 requests

Have the Behringer Vibrato and Superfuzz. They’re both awesome. No complaints aside from could be more durable.

Is the VB-2 the same circuit that's in a Boss GT3 multi-effects unit?

I know and you most likely don't care, but what your Bender has Done for me is over The Top , So Freaking Fabulous ....Thanx..Most Appreciated 🙂
