Vintage Zonk Machine Fuzz Demonstration
Переглядів 10 тис.5 років тому
A quick demo of an original 1960's John Hornby Skewes "THE ZONK MACHINE" fuzz pedal. This is one of only a handful made with a hybrid germanium/silicon transistor combination. I do not own this pedal, so please don't ask me if you can purchase it. This was mainly to demo the pedal for the owner before I ship it back to him, and also for anyone interested in vintage fuzz pedals.

Paul Robeson

Years ago I found this old Italian Geloso tape machine at a yard sale. I was told it probably didn't work and paid $15 bucks. Got it working just fine and found inside this recording of Paul Robeson giving a talk on integration at the First Unitarian Church of Los Angeles, CA on October 17th, 1957. The recording wed donated to the Paul Robeson foundation and is posted here for anyone interested...
Build Tip: Film Capacitor Polarity Test
Переглядів 17 тис.7 років тому
Here's a quick and dirty way to test the polarity of film capacitors using only a fuzz pedal and an amplifier. No fancy test equipment needed. This is a MUST for building tube amps where you're running high B voltages, especially with heater currents nearby; but it can also help eliminate RF and other noises in stompboxes.

Jimi Hendrix String Set By Thomas Vinci Strings

The chain is a Fender Strat strung with Vinci 1010 L, Acid Fuzz Yellow Sunshine Booster, Analog Delay set for slap-back, in to a 1966 VOX Berkeley Super Reverb Twin V8 tube amp. Enjoy!

This is a demo of the ONLY light gauge flat wound strings on the market, the Thomas Vinci 3005 SL 10-38 set. Brought to you by Thomas Vinci strings and Acid Fuzz pedals. If you love flat wound strings but are frustrated by the lack of a light gauge flat wound set, these are the strings for you. Amazing rich tone for any style from rock to jazz and you can bend and vibrato much easier with these...
Vox Onboard Effects Wah Service
Переглядів 1,5 тис.8 років тому
In this video I go over how to service the Vox "palm wah" slide potentiometer. This is the third and last video in this series of Vox onboard effects service tutorials. I hope you found these tutorials useful and they help keep your vintage Vox guitar's effects going for years to come! Big thanks to Rob Campanella (Quarter After, Brian Jonestown Massacre, etc..) for letting me use his Ultrasoni...
The Clientele "Lamplight" Live
Переглядів 7628 років тому
One of my favorite bands of all time (The Clientele) playing one of my favorite songs (Lamplight). This was filmed @ the Satellite in Silverlake, CA on July 26, 2014. It was beyond amazing to see Alasdair using our Italian Fuzz (Vox Tone Bender clone) live! I'll blame Mark, James, and Alasdair playing so well together as the reason why I was too mesmerized to shoot this video in the proper aspe...

This video is the first in a series of tutorials on how to service the onboard effects in vintage Vox guitars. This video is meant only as an introduction to servicing the effects.

Vox Phantom VI Special Fun
Переглядів 7 тис.9 років тому
I don't think I'll see another one of these for a while, so I thought I'd just have some fun blowing the onboard effects out a 12AX7's a$$. I tried to hit all the different switch combinations and also keep the VU meter in the red as much as I can, just like the Velvet Underwear.

Zonk Machine Comparison With Humbuckers
Too bad it didn’t come with a tuner.
Does anyone of you know where I can get a schematic drawing the the effects on the Special?
Appears I found your channel 10 years too late. This pedal sounds fucking great, ace demo too
Awesome!, simple and effective test!, no need to buy an expensive oscilloscope
Hi. Whats the brand of your Pickups? Thanks
Thanks for that,very useful tip! Cheers
Love it! What guage strings you using on your strat please?
10-38 gauge.
Clearly a Jimi fan then! @@acidfuzzpedals9986
Very helpful! Question: when building a kinman treble bleed circuit, which end of the cap should the resistor connect to?
Nice bit of Losing Touch with my Mind there great song great guitar man!
Can you repair a Fz-1A? If so how do I contact u?
I have the BPC reissue. 😀
Sounds incredible. Def snagging a set
What year Strat Jon?
Very useful. Thanks!
Sounds a bit out of tune to me....😁 But I like it, those old Vox guitars were a bit quirky to say the least.
I had one with same electronics for repairs at the shop but 12 strings...
My dream guitar!
Yikes😂
No oscilloscope needed!
Wow
Is this orientation important and applicable to the tone capacitors in a les paul? Thank You
Axe music.
Just play the bloody thing !
another great video, thanks for you work and efforts... it is very helpful. I am considering a purchase on your website but it looks like most things are sold out... Can I get on a waiting list? I am a bass player and don't use a lot of pedals anymore but I'd like to support you and what you do... open to suggestions if you have any effects laying around you want to sell? Thank, Joe
Just found your website & videos, you rock man! Thank you so much, I am watching this now and will be diving into my Sidewinder IV Bass tomorrow... Primary issue is switches are seized up but everything else is working and sounds good... I am suspecting (hoping) that it is just a bad switch and/or cap as everything "looks" clean inside... I subscribed and will dig into your other content soon. Thanks again man, all very well done, clean edits, and great communication.
Real hip !;! A friend in another band had a mid 60;;s vox white teardrop body bass with an original factory installed fuzz control. It wasn't real practical but cool. I also remember the guitar head with the tuning keys was huge. I was brought up in the Detroit downriver area. This is the only bass I ever saw like this. Good stuff ! On this channel.
I bought one back in 1972, it looked amazing and the sound features seemed awesome, but did not get happy with it, so sold it and bought a Gibson Standard instead, still do!
It's a pretty guitar but the tone is so over trebly I'd be parametric EQing for days looking for beef in the neck pickup. The fuzz is Cowsill-worthy (not an insult) and that square wave vibrato is decades ahead of its time. PS: can you do a demo on: 1976 BC Rich Seagull 2 forerunner of the Eagle 1958 Les Paul Jr. 3/4 scale 1958 Supro/Valco Belmont 33 Special
Говнее этой гитары я ещё не видел! Даже Тоника по прозвищу УНИТАЗ, это шедевр гитарного дизайна 😂
Я слышал, что гитары Тоники ужасны, но никогда на них не играл. Я думаю, что в некоторых Тониках были встроенные эффекты? Я слышал, что белорусская Форманта/Соло II советской эпохи со встроенными эффектами намного лучше, чем Тоника. Я хотел бы попробовать один когда-нибудь. У меня есть педаль Poltava Fuzz/Tremolo/Wah производства России/СССР, которая мне очень нравится!✌
@@acidfuzzpedals9986 я играл на тонике в 1984 году. Ростовской фабрики. Ее только купили (ДК), а гриф уже пропеллером и анкера нет...
Встроенных эффектов нет ( на басу), на тонике были. Перегруз и еще что то...
Non ho mai sentito un suono così orribile come questa chitarra. È meglio che la vox si metta a fare amplificatori. I never Heard a Guitar sound so orribile, Is Better that Vox ti make amplificator
I just caught video 9 years late. I noticed you played a riff from The Clientele. I wonder if anyone else did.
The Clientele are one of my all time favorites. Glad you noticed! I was going to start an online tablature site for their guitar parts shortly after they released Strange Geometry, but I never found/made the time. Alasdair's guitar work is beautiful & interesting.
@@acidfuzzpedals9986 Awesome! One of my favorite bands as well. I started following them during "The Violet Hour." I just saw them last week and had the band sign my "Lost Weekend" ep and my "Haunted Melody" 7"
When he started that riff it hit me. I was like, "Wait....The Clientele?" Man, The Clientele is great.
@@wesdavis7371 Same experience here!
Grew up with these tones, I miss them, bands today, go back and try these out
What junk 🤣
Can't hear you even with my volume on 10,!!!
I know. I was really tired & sleep deprived when I shot and uploaded this. I was up all night cloning the effects. In retrospect I should have used two mics, or at least adjusted levels in post. Sorry. I really should do so & re-upload, but it was years ago & has ~153K likes.
I like the nod to Take Five
I can hear Bobby Brady saying, 'groovy!'
Keren.....
Truly, the Casio of guitars. 🙄
If this instrument would hit the market in it's time, shoegaze wouldn't be a thing. It is entirely possible, that Kevin Shields built a time machine and sabotaged their production and advertisement.
Interesting guitar dude , love it
Great song choices
Terrible mix between voice and gtr
I love this guitar, and you have the 60s Psychedelic vibe. 👍
Oh Those are Some Killer Guitars... Only Vox I Tell Ya ☺☺😎💯💖 And Thanx a Million for The Upload and Sharing ☺😎👊💯
True sixties sound!! Just amazing.
what year is this Phantom 6?
As a kid I was enamored with the Vox Phantom….
the Final Boss of fuzzes
Spacemen 3 !!! 😮 edit: second guitar is absolute madness !!! thanks you for sharing those incredible instruments !!
The peghead looks like a butter knife
I love this thing. It sounds great.
