This is better than 90% of the guitar videos on KZfaq - and the dude doesn’t at all even seem like he intended to make this. Seems like he’s just chillin talking about guitar shit and someone took out their phone and started filming. Love it.

You’re spot on w your assessment! I’m in 1000000% agreement w you! The dude knows his shit,can play w feel, and isn’t pretentious or talking ‘down’ to you.He’s REAL!. There’s so many a-holes out there.Guys like R hett Sh ule, who I personally don’t know, and could be a good guy.But for me, being a studio keyboard occasional guitar, multi instrumentalist player my whole career, guys like the one I mentioned just sometimes bother me!This guy is f-in awesome. You can tell he’s doing it for the right reasons, not to sell merch or get the most subscribers, which will possibly get him the most subs! I subscribed immediately! Thanks for your take on it!

Yep. I ditched pedal rigs and even solid-body guitars long ago. I found when I stopped busying myself tweaking gear on stage, my tips shot way up, because I stay connected to the audience instead of the rig. Nice picking control allows you to sound like two players instead of one. I think guys are waaaaay to busy with gear. You start actually playing more sophisticated when you're left with only the instrument Great video post!

"The enemy of art is the absence of limitations." -Orson Welles The beauty of guitar music is in its limitations. When you are only give a single volume and tone, you will try to maximize the different types of tones. Then you add in the pickup selector. Then you add in the amp EQ. There are so many tonal variations can be achieved with just simple controls, but we live in a modern digital age where we have everything accessible at our fingers with modeling amps and digital amp sims, but there is a beauty in the limitations and it truly breeds creativity and innovation.

This has been known since the late-80s, when the supposedly "advanced" guitars like Steinberger with active pickups plugged into rack$ of outboard FX and MIDI sounded worse than an old Gibson or Fender plugged straight into an old amp for 90+% of anything you'd ever want to record. It's kinda how we got bands like the Black Crows and an entire genre like grunge in the first place.

The sound is so much more organic when you don't clutter things up with effect pedals and rack gear. Just a 2-pickup guitar with a volume and tone knob plugged into an amp where overdrive is controlled by the volume knob can deliver such an amazing palette of tones. So many great guitarists from Walter Trout to Angus Young got great tones by plugging straight in sans effects. No reason why we knuckleheads can't do the same!

With a bit different amp he could have gone a LOT further than this with minimal effort. No channel switching or EQ needed. One amp-footswitch and one boost pedal does it. With an amp's switchable reverb (preferably an amp with drippy reverb :) and a single boost pedal to keep some headroom, he can extend the range into a (thin but serviceable) Jazz timbre, a Surf, Spy and Spaghetti Western timbre, and Ska & reggae skank rhythms .

The problem is so many YT demos of boost and OD are using teles and noodling generic 'blues licks' with no other meaningful context, so when demo'ing the EQ and gain ranges the relatively shrill, thin and 'spiky' timbre of a tele is ear-fatiguing faster than other guitars. Particularly when playing generic blues licks _"oooh yeah, baby....Just cant wait for yet another 3-string-mute-to-wholestep-bend to kick off another"solo" "_ fucking hell, lol

I went pedal buying crazy during Covid boredom. Almost all of them have ended up for sale on reverb. I am now down to 3 or 4 including a tuner. I am trying back to practicing everyday with just the guitar and amp and it’s making me better at understanding the relationship between guitar volume, tone and dynamics and the pre-amp/power amp sections of my amp. Im not a great player, but the fewer pedals I use the better I begin to understand what’s really happening here.
