“Are you ever not smiling when you play this stuff?” That question pretty much hit the nail on the head for one of the big reasons Nick and his unique approach to weird sounds is so admirable to me. Just having fun dorking around just ‘cause!
- "you're well aware of this and you're fine going forward" - "yup" the premise sounds like if he was going to say he has cancer or something lol... never clicked so fast on a new rig rundown video. awesome!
So, I’m 8:00 minutes into this Rig Rundown and I KNOW it is going to be the best one I’ve seen of these. This is the most honest, down to earth, humble and innovative guitarist you’ve got on the show for sure. So thrilled to see the rest.
"I have the DD-3 for, ya know, like a classic delay sound" *engages pedal* BWEHHHHHAFBKAFHBJKJBKAHFGAKFGJAKFGJAKFGJAG I knew something was up when the level and feedback were all the way up
Much respect to a great guitarist for playing Squier guitars! Even though the street price for a Squier guitar/bass are significantly lower than a Fender MIA, MIJ, and MIM, they’re really great feeling/sounding instruments. My Squier 60’s Vibe Precision Bass is SIIIIICCCCKKKK!
Yeah it's unbelievable the bad rep Squier has. I have like 5 of them (Vintage Modified and Classic Vibe) and I adore them. A well set up Squier completely slays a stock Player (MIM) Fender.
To PREMIER Guitar: Nick is an ARTIST plain and simple.....there is just no way around this.....He oozes ideas, inspirations, creations .......He exhibits the never-ending ongoing thoughts of "What if I tried THIS" I honestly think the man could/would stop creating.....even if he had to........ A type of endless curious blizzard of possibilities ....and an absolute intolerance for boredom coupled with a sort of child-like curiosity..... One gets the feeling that if you were to sit him down with a "coloring book and crayons" and told him to "Only color within the lines and use the numbers on each space to match with the color assigned to that number (like paint by numbers)....Doing that with a guy like Nick would be to deprive everyone of the Genius -like ideas that would come from someone that really should be left alone to create What he will....dam the rules, dam the traditions, and conventions....Just give Nick the tools (which he would probably modify anyway) and stand back....and behold....What he will come up with...Well, God only knows but one thing you can be sure of....It WILL be interesting, and ORIGINAL.....Above all else one could say about the upcoming advanced Artificial Intelligence soon to come about.....even with it's supposed ability to do "Art" and write "music"...No matter how "advanced" it ever becomes it WILL NEVER...COULD NEVER" posses the spark that is in people like NICK REINHART....People like Nick are true rare diamonds,...one of a kind snowflakes that are precious beyond compare and simply not duplicate able...they really add meaning and depth to what it means to be called "Human Being"
@@TinkerToneworks I would understand if Jamie sold it to a close friend, but if I remember correctly, the guitar in question was spotted being sold on Reverb. If a casual acquaintance of mine asked for dibs on a guitar if I ever sold it, I’d give them a call before I listed it on the internet. That’s just good manners.
Great RR !! One Note: the GK pickups are NOT MIDI....they are "hex" or hexaphonic in nature. They pickup SIX signals, one per string. they send these six DISCRETE signals down the 13-pin cable to the device at the other end (several GR-series, VG-series, GP-10, OC20G and a few other devices). There is NO MIDI INVOLVED in most of those endpoint devices UNLESS you engage their "MIDI OUT" function, to drive/control another synth or FX device. The hex pickup, and the 13-pin, is the conduit for AUDIO, not data. The 13-pin protocol is the six separate strings/audio, the regular guitar signal (all 6 strings together, as in 'time immemorial electric guitar out'), the other wires are for synth control, volume, phantom power etc. Just wanted to clarify that since I meet people ALL the time who get these and are then confused that they CAN'T PLUG RIGHT INTO MIDI 5-pin DIN etc. Otherwise -- awesome informative and fun Rundown! Carry on......
Same guitar as Omar used to play in ATDI before the Ibanez endorsement but his was a right hand guitar flipped upside down which is why the knobs are upside down but it looks a normal shape. Pointless Fact of the day
I love the Rig Rundowns where musicians actually play their gear and use them in interesting ways. Seems like such a waste for people to just talk about it
AWESOME rundown to start 2019 with one of my fave guitarists playing the obscure guitar that I've always wanted (and get a lot of S*&% for liking)!!! Now I'm gonna post here and on all of the Tero Melos/Pedals and Effects social media sites. Nick Reinhart use your superpowers to REISSUE this guitar and slap your name on it!! I'm telling ya'..............it would sell millions!!! Well, I would buy one. LOL
After listening to him play I honestly wouldn't be surprised if Nick is a Primus fan because some of the weird shit he plays definitely sounds like Larry LaLonce would do and it's awesome. Love his sense of humour, this guy is fucking hilarious and it's great
A lot of jokes, a lot of laughs, I definetly have a great moment seeing this guys talking about gear.... Really great comedy improvisation stuff going on here. Congrats guys, I prefered to listen to you than going to an alien secrets video...

Qué onda Pepis
El Tío Pepis
Sobrinos!
This dude should be a spokesperson for the Not Having Enough Money For A Blunt But Somehow Enough For Two Tall Cans Of Arizona society.
💀
We all need a friend like Nick. Seems like such a cool dude
really fun tour, thanks for everything nick.
So, I’m 8:00 minutes into this Rig Rundown and I KNOW it is going to be the best one I’ve seen of these. This is the most honest, down to earth, humble and innovative guitarist you’ve got on the show for sure. So thrilled to see the rest.
"DD-3 for just a classic delay sound" *BWAAAAAAA*
Pretty sure this dude has his "Fucks Given" knob superglued at "zero".
@@christianfriisjensen2055 he welded it
"Some would say that's cheating"
"ABSOLUTELY!"
Self-oscillation has been a thing pretty much since the first analog delays, so in that regard it's totally a classic delay sound.
DD-3 is the shit.
This guy is awesome. I am going to bet on him when he is going to fight Joe Bonamassa in the thunderdome.
Is he being lip-sync'd by Seth Rogen?
He'll probably superglue something to his fists, giving him the advantage
he watched this rundown and wished he could be this loose and have fun
@@mj_dj joe is putting grolsch rings on knucles also
not getting all this joe b vs nick stuff can someone explain it lol
only thing i can think of is joe called pedal users lazy and nick loves pedals
"I have the DD-3 for, ya know, like a classic delay sound"
*engages pedal*
BWEHHHHHAFBKAFHBJKJBKAHFGAKFGJAKFGJAKFGJAG
I knew something was up when the level and feedback were all the way up
Don't know how many times I've rewatched this. Excellent.
that's.... one of the most inspiring 30 mins I spent on UA-cam. Both Nick and Juan are incredibly inventive with noise boxes.
Fastest 36 minutes ever. Such a fun rig rundown
Nick's stuff makes me run for a guitar more than anyone else at them moment! Love it
What type of wood is the pedal board and how much does it effect the tone of the pedals?
The sad thing is at first I thought this wasn’t a joke 😂
This guy is just a complete dingdong and I love him so much.
This is much more fun than the typical middle-aged blues guy....Nick is a genius!
Yeah I'm actually curious about how he gets his tone
Best rig rundown ever. This guy is a genius and fuckin hilarious. Thanks PG!
Nick is such an awesome dude and a seriously inspiring player. Such a cool guy. Loved this one!
By far one of my favorite modern guitarist
I love Nick's overdrive tone with the boost and the JCM800! Sounds killer
Man.. he should get the Orange Rocker 32..fuckin 2 x10 combo it works in stereo and has killer OD tones...pretty sure Omar from Mars Volta used one.
I love that he is dressed like Todd from Bojack Horseman.
being indie was a thing in the real world, way before that show, actually more than 20 years ago.
imslicc Yeah I know, it was a joke. Because of the yellow hat.
And his voice sounds like Bojack at some point
pedal kings, the most underrated guitarist
Chris is becoming a great interviewer. The question at 6:13 was friggen awesome
I swear we all played Team Fortress 2 with this guy online
Yup
I swear I’ve heard him I’m a voice chat, could be wrong..
His slap delay reminds me so much of Robert Fripp in early King Crimson..knowing how big of a King Crimson fan Nick is....
Much respect to a great guitarist for playing Squier guitars! Even though the street price for a Squier guitar/bass are significantly lower than a Fender MIA, MIJ, and MIM, they’re really great feeling/sounding instruments. My Squier 60’s Vibe Precision Bass is SIIIIICCCCKKKK!

probably the coolest rig rundown ever ! the knob thing killed me :D
Excellent stuff! Nick is the best.
Might be the best rig rundown ever. Simply amazing.
This may be my favorite rundown. God he’s hilarious.

This guy is on my wavelength. Exact opposite of your standard gear snob.
So good. I keep coming back to this one and Nels Cline's EQD 'Board to Death' pinnacle examples of the genre. Ava Mendoza next please though!
Best rig rundown ever! Nick and Tera Melos are so rad
If ever I'm in a rut with FX, I come back to this video; it's INSTANT GOOD VIBES
Wait, Weezer's "Blue" album in a pedal? Sold, instantly sold.
I thought this sounded terrible but the band is pretty cool after I checked it out to hear in context
Didn't even know he had a UA-cam channel!!!! That makes me love this band even more! He is so nice
I'm the guy who let nick know jamie was selling it
King shit m8
No one cares
Good looking out, dude. Jamie was a dick for that.
@@ajackson5955 how? i don't think Nick and Jamie are like super close friends or anything like that
@@TinkerToneworks I would understand if Jamie sold it to a close friend, but if I remember correctly, the guitar in question was spotted being sold on Reverb.

This guy is awesome. Just seems like such a fun dude
Same guitar as Omar used to play in ATDI before the Ibanez endorsement but his was a right hand guitar flipped upside down which is why the knobs are upside down but it looks a normal shape. Pointless Fact of the day
Omar actually had his pickguard modded to have the knobs on the right side (for him)
ive nothing but gratitude for this. thank you!
One of the best Rig Rundowns ever and very inspiring thanks :-)
*Plays incoherent mess
"whoops that wasnt supposed to happen..."
*Continues to play mess
Haha I actually heard him mess up and was satisfied when he got it right. It's not an incoherent mess!
HORRIBLE NOISE.
Brilliant! You never want this video to end!
This was awesome!!! He's like a mad scientist of sound -love it!!!! 😍
I love how off the wall this guy is.
Also, Jamie Stilman is a rad guy. Met him at namm once.
Ps. That midi line switcher thing is genius.
Awesome, been waiting for this and it didn't disappoint! Such a likeable guy, having fun with pedals for a living. Right on.
I love the Rig Rundowns where musicians actually play their gear and use them in interesting ways. Seems like such a waste for people to just talk about it
So amazingly informative, it leaves most rig rundowns WAY in da dust!
I never saw a rig rundown with the presenter laughing while the artist demo his stuff. Amazing. i laughed so hart too.
Only a true man can play the little mermaid song on guitar. #dadlyfe
Apparently, I need to up my game on toe accuracy. Thank you for the cool content.
That one was long overdue, great stuff!
This is also a secret Death Grips rig rundown if you think about it: those synth noises are SO bottomless pit sounding
RIGHT
KT88s in a JCM800... Billy Corgan style.
Kerry Fuckin' King!
@Schmoolie Deninostein Your voice sounds weird coming out of your ass like that
On my 300th viewing of the part where Nick hits that harmonic at 17:32 and cracks everyone up.

Leonard Shelby yessss yes yes!!
the POG feels like the most normal pedal he is using...damn
That was great, he is an absolute riot! Thank you guys and Happy New Year!
Originall 1977 to 1982 punk,enjoyed watching your video debs xx
I love this guy gonna go listen to tera melos now because of this.
love LOVE nick reinhart
After listening to him play I honestly wouldn't be surprised if Nick is a Primus fan because some of the weird shit he plays definitely sounds like Larry LaLonce would do and it's awesome. Love his sense of humour, this guy is fucking hilarious and it's great
Barry McKenzie sticker on the POG. Super obscure reference for a seppo. Love it. New fan.
With all this guy's pedals, and all his stories, I'm really surprised that this episode was only 36 mins.
This is probably the best rundown
Super glue really is hilarious though.
I mean, he does not play punk exactly but he definitely has the attitude and the gear
My 98 squier Super-Sonic is one of my most cherished possessions!
Hahaha, I saw them last month and I was trying to figure out how that little guy was plugged into the system for a half hour!
Really fun and instructing. Love it !
This dude makes great questions
this is the most unpredictable rig rundown i’ve ever seen
Fuckin awesome guy!!
Very positive and inspiring!
I like his approach to gear and music, and it's because of Nick i love pedals!
15:27 *DEATH GRIPS INTENSIFIES*
Death Grips is Online
What a racket! We Are Millwall!!!
His solos sound like a dial-up modem, love them.
17:32 Palm?
Chris's face at 14:15 is brilliant!
Love this guy and his quirky sounds!
Wow just incredible! this is amazing .
29:47 "It's tuned to E" DDLEHDAAAAAAAAAAAAAUUUUUUUCCHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Most enjoyable RR ever - cheers gents.
who else started laughing out loud at 12:04? Because I sure as hell did. That's so awesome.
Most interesting gear video on the internet. The man is amazing, very clever and creative!
Fender should do a signature model of this guitar for Nick.
Squier is about to reissue the Super-Sonic.
thanks for sharing this band ! didnt knew them but not i really like them!
A lot of jokes, a lot of laughs, I definetly have a great moment seeing this guys talking about gear.... Really great comedy improvisation stuff going on here. Congrats guys, I prefered to listen to you than going to an alien secrets video...
the most interesting rig out there .
Dude is a genius that’s a killer setup
What an unbelievably cool guy. Brilliant rundown
Nick is such a personality
thanks a lot !! It's Christmas when I see this video 🤩🤩🤩🐴🤩🤩🤩
The anarchy sticker with 33 and the smile is so cool
i'm going full screen. see you on the other side.
