I may have to check out this Jimi Hendrix guy.
Yeah, apparently he knows a few chords on the guitar
@@iaincarter2599 and couple of cheap flashy licks on top 😁
Is he famous ?
he's the guy, who if you buy 6 albums, will throw 4 of them away
@@commentfreely5443 So, like Led Zep?
What Jimi would do with today’s technology...
He wouldn't be rehashing/copying retro styles. He would reinvent music himself. He would acknowledge the past and create his own style just like he did then
@Tong Zou Jimmy tried an early prototype big muff before he died, and apparently he liked it a lot.
He would probably choke on his own vomit, if he heard some of these pedals!
wahmsi Amen to that
@@Ndlanding The Miku pedal
Band of Gypsies was the sound from the Filmore East gig, the gypsies never played woodstock.
Kind of true. Two of the Band of Gypsys played Woodstock, Jimi and Billy Cox on bass. Jimi's manager fired the third Buddy Miles on drums. but you are technically correct, no Buddy no Band of Gypsys. The Woodstock lineup was called Gypsys Sun and Rainbows, probably a nod to his good buddy Buddy.
I met Billy Cox the other day. Bullshitted him for a while, super cool chill guy.
Sounds like a wasp farting into a baked bean can. That rotating sound you hear is not the univibe, It's Jimi spinning in his grave
stephen clarke yeah the vibe pedal sounds NOTHING like a univibe should imo
"I just feel like I wanna unleash"
Captain anderton -2019
that shade of purple makes it look like a plastic toy guitar
Yeah it should either be a bit darker or a bit more faded than it already is
I'd happily have that toy guitar.
Hendrix love black/olympic white strat...never purple ! I sold my MIM olympic white fender hendrix strat and i prefer my 1974 mij aria strat with vintage radius /frets and delicious pickups ! Better hardware/tremolo bridge/ body / neck wood .... I hate the business around Hendrix ....Maybe Hendrix today gear choice : superstrat with floyd rose tremolo/ Soldano hi gain amp / multi fx pedalboard ...
hendrix plays miku
Yeah ugly asf, the coiled cable is even worse
You should have turned Off The buffer in the fuzzface when trying the octavia.
I believe it's just an input buffer on the Fuzzface, I don't believe it drives the rest of the board.
Guitarist magazine issue 450 September 2019 , there is a really good interview with Roger Mayer , he tells how jimi used to get his live sound , how they set up his guitars , really good read if your into Jimi.
Be really good to get Robin Trower on 'The Captain Meets'....I'm pretty sure he's touring at the moment.
Germanium = sweeter warmer unstable Silicon = brighter more aggressive more stable not affected by temp changes
Chris I didn’t.
@@sollyharr quiet U Bloody Alien!!!
The Hendrix clan make zero sense except looking for more cents off Jimi's name and legacy.
MXR need to release all the EVH pedals in mini pedal form!
Keep coming back to this just for Pete’s little wing rendition at 10:50. Absolutely beautiful
Hahaha that’s borrowed from Eric Gales!
Out of all the effects pedals Univibe is my favourite. Robin Trower is one of my favourites that uses it with wah.
I must say that. We were a few friends playing guitar in the 60's in Paris. We knew the DJ of a discotheque in Paris, who said he comes back from London with a single never heard yet. We knew about JH , but never heard him yet. Then we ran to the Pierre Charron discotheque, middle of the day, only us in the place. Then the moment I'll never forget came . That intro , that sound. that touch . Jaws fell on the ground. the rest is history.
coiled cables act as a low pass, so the highs loss are partially because of it too.
Well, all cables act as a low-pass filter, and the longer the cable the bigger the effect.
But you’re right here, and that’s why the buffer helped a lot! A buffer counteracts the tone loss from cable impedance.
@@SykoLiu yes and no. The coiled ones acts as a natural resistance because of the... coil shape. The normal ones suffer from the loss, but not in the same way and the longer the cable the more you hear, but a cool experience is have a 5m coil and a 5m normal one, you will hear a different kind of loss because of the coil "filtering".
@@Mathcartney What? The shape doesn't matter. The reason why a coiled 5m will sound different than a straight 5m is that there is more cable in a coiled one.
I know that guitarists are prone to superstition, but thinking that the shape of your cable affects tone is a new one for me... Coiled cables simply require a longer length of actual wire in order to get the same practical distance.
SykoLiu in electric engineering you see this. Why do you think that inside some devices there are cables coiled manually? It goes even further than aesthetics, but that’s ok I’m not talking guitar world gibberish here, anyone believes what they want. Peace.
@@Mathcartney I believe math and science, and I'd love to see the math behind your claims.
It just happens that I study acoustics and electronics (so-called electro-acoustics conveniently), and I know that the science behind what you're claiming simply doesn't exist.
There are many practical reasons for coiling cables beyond aesthetics, but it's never because the shape itself affects the way the cable/wire works.
This is easily tested at home. Does your lamp look different when you move the power cord? Does your phone charge better when you lay the cable out flat? Does the sound of your guitar change as you walk around the room?
Remember the times when Lee used to vibrato and everything in the guitar would move but the string?
Yeah, those are gone now :)
Pete: Jimi used t play with the volume knob quite allot when playing out.
Does anyone know if this MXR fuzz face mini sounds identical to the round Dunlop Hendrix Fuzzface mini? (with the buffer off and silicon selected, of course). I love my fuzzface mini, but this one seems more pedalboard friendly
Hey lee. John mayer is kicking ass at 02 yesterday and tonight . Surely this is it the vid we wanted to see for a while now . CAPTAIN MEETS ....JOHN MAYER🤘🤯🤘
Surely pete's gonna be rockin up there too ?
@05:50 *sings*
Oohhhhhhh the wonderful thing about buffers,
is buffers are wonderful things.
They even out all of your losses,
and excite your amp's line reverb springs.
... I'll get my coat.
And I'll join you for a buffered beer. We can be buff-buddies. I love 'em too...
Awesome lol
Hey Pete, where are you going with that purple strat in your hands! Now look out! And let Jimi take over! 😁
Believe the line goes move over rover
The fuzz face sounds really good!
I'd love to see Captain meets John Mayer
Best playing on the channel by far, got goosebumps man... Jimi would love it
The tones give off a modern twist to the late 60s psychedelic Hendrix vibe. The Fuzz sounds incredibly strong, but I know that too much of a guitar effect is either a good or a bad thing. Nevertheless, I would say to a degree it does justice to the most iconic and legendary guitarist ever!
The dunlop jimi pedals needed it, the old univibe was weak im my opinion
@@CursedInEternity92 It still is. Just a tweaked phaser. My digital univibe from Digitech, the Ventura, sounds more authentic. The best ones are photocell-based and that MXR doesn't sound like it's ever been near a light-dependent resistor or even heard of a bulb.
Nice video, nice product, but some suspect dial tuning by both of you guys. I feel as though there were many lost tones skipped by wide increments in adjustment. Again i know that people want things done fast or they can't keep focus, but when sound is involved in decision making we need the time to hear them properly. Or i could perhaps get off my butt and actually go to a shop and check them out, but who does that these days.
The only thing is why the people that really did the mods for Jimi like Roger Mayer UK or Dave Weyer who did the Band Of Gypsies fuzz why they are not asked.
The octavia was Rogers idea and some other brand now makes them and it sounds not like Jimi wanted it as it was really proto types.
Besides you need the drive from at least one 100 watts Marshall stack turned up.
So it was not good and awfull especially when you got the gear to make it like it better with that Marshall to the right involved with some attenuator then use volume on guitar handle the fuzz. Be aware that Dunlop is one trick pony that may have the rights but great sounding anything?
The Fuzzes sound fine, particularly the BOG. I have the regular mini version. If you don't have cranked Plexis. just run the Fuzz into a bit of dirt from a MIB/Plexi pedal, or a Bluesbreaker-circuit like a KOT, Vick Mount Pleasant, etc.
MXR has a few tricks, some very good. The Univibe sucks, tho. No throb. Just sounds like a phaser to me.
Not going to buy the pedals but I will have to listen to electric lady album as I drink my coffee
If you want those effects, sack all of those off, for the price of 2 of those you can buy a Keeley Monterey. All the same effects but also a Lesely rotary a wah in one pedal. Everyhting you need for jimi's sound
….but why does it sound like crap?
Because there gimmick pedals
Sorry, Pete you missed the mark when demoing the Octavia; you need to use the neck pickup.
Any true devotee of octave fuzzes knows this.
Love the idea of a silicon and germanium fuzz in one unit! Brilliant!
Aaron Hall me too, which is why I bought one. Funny how people complain about the price since my extensive search for a good, affordable mini ge and/or si fuzz was fruitless. This is actually pretty good value with both si/ge and a bonus buffer. Love the Jimi pic too. Thumbs down to all the complainers who already hate fuzz.
The demo here was disappointingly poor though...you can tell these guys aren’t well versed in these types of pedals alas.
@@JPMonstie “these guys” have demo’d 100s of pedals and own one of the largest music shops in the UK. they are better versed than u or i; further o got the BOG and univibe and they are going back, inexcusably bad
That band of gypsiess pedal gave me some smashing pumpkins vibess. Gish era ha
I actually get mesmerised by Pete's picking hand... I need to get that good.
Not a Hendrix-like tone in earshot here. Even the Univibe sounds wrong.
That’s because this guy plays nothing at all like Jimi.
The one thing I like about this was the rendition of Eric Gales version of Little Wing. Pete, please do a tutorial on that please.
The Octavia sounds like shit!!! The univibe sounds really good though..
univibe eats all your high end. avoid
"Woodoo Child"? ... :D
When are you going to do Captain Meets John Mayer? He's in town, isn't he? 😎👌
I dig the band of Gypsies one, sounds more like what Jimi would want in guitar tone
Purple Dane.... Puuurple Daaane!!! (Purple rain in the background)
Purple Dane all in my brain...
@@tadhgbeanbradley ...Captain funny...But I don't know why..
All sound excellent but the B of G's and the Univibe have got the edge for me. Groovelicious baby.
Purple Pete! He is making me really think about picking up the purple 50's road worn tele sitting at GC right now.....
bob733333 I guess that would be one way to do it 😂
Pete is an awesome player 🔥
the univibe has probably got to be my favourite effect of all time.
Never understood why the Hendrix strats have a backwards headstock but not a backwards pickguard
10:39 The few seconds of Little Wing Pete could play without incurring a copyright strike. Enjoy those few seconds of heaven . . .
@@bob733333 no it's not. Many guitar you tubers have had videos taken down for just playing a cover of a song... They're having to be ridiculously careful about 'free use' terms right now... Mostly because large publishing companies always take every opportunity to shit on the little guy. And that's a historical fact...
Demonetized for playing too much Hendrix...in a video that's pushing pedals for ultimately the Hendrix estate. It really wouldn't surprise me.
Should of ran the wa pedal also
Cut back on the fuzz a bit plz.
what kind of cord is that ? where can one source one ? preferably in white or tweed
Sounds nothing like Jimi's sound!
I think the volume was rolled back... didn't help for sure
Agreed 👍
Get Bea on that rig
It's painful watching them struggle with the Fuzz Face. Volume 10, Gain 10. Sounded much better once Pete took control. That Univibe is terrible though. It's just a phaser. Limited edition? So limited edition that 4 years later they were released as the "68 Shrine Series." That FF is no joke though. Sleeper hit.
I think I can get these tones for less. Big selling point is the pedals size . At 150 USD each I can't.
They're just a cash-in by the Hendrix family, most revenue for the least cost - it was the same people who "partnered" with Gibson to produce a Hendrix-branded "Stratocaster" which turned into a publicity disaster before the guitars even hit the market, and was scrapped.
Tell me if I'm wrong..... but is there not.......... a plexi reissue in the corner?.... just move the OX BOX...
Whit a racket! Thanks, guys, for saving me some money. Mind you, the univibe wasn't too shabby.
Whole lot of Purple happening this post!
horrible tones,,, :(
Pete is an awesome guitar player, except for Jimi! He hasn't got Jim's feel....but that's okay! No one does!
Okay guys this is great, thanks, but can you just get on with editing that Captain meets John Mayer video?
I want that guitar so bad!
I picked up a used Fulltone Catalyst for $50 .It works as a clean boost, overdrive and In flame mode with the gain all the way up it turns into as much of a fuzz as the one demoed here. If you see them used check them out.
I like signature pedals. I love taking them apart even more! Gotta get my filthy mittens on one of these micro pedals! Hands down the best signature pedals
just got the BOG and univibe from tis video. they are terrible. the BOG sounds nothing like the circle BOG pedal from a few years ago. this BOG sounds like a muff with a ton of low end - might be a good doom pedal? not my thing. the univibe is junk. cuts off all your high frequencies, the attack is soft and vibe wash out is all “swish swish” in a non musical way. was going to get the fuzz face but as shown in multiple demos the Ge FF toggle is super noisy which ruins it for me. a Ge FF will be noisier than silicon but it shouldnt have that much noise,
Squeeze that lemon for all it’s worth Hendrix Estate ...
It is sad that they will put the name on anything, these pedals are horrible.
Cycloneshockey94 Indeed, they are a disgrace to the man.
I usually can't stand octavefuzz but this one sounds brilliant.
Pete, look up Randy Hansen he nails Jimi’s tone and persona. Highly recommend. So if you really try hard you CAN sound like Jimi Hendrix.
Hes probably the only guy ive ever heard properly pull of hendrix though tbf.
If you talk over each other on a video, it’s really hard to hear what you’re saying.
Wha pedal? And wammy bar? That whould be closer to jimi
I saw JIMI LIVE. Good luck pilgrim
Damn that cleans up really well. When Pete rolled up the volume at 0:30, that tone in particular was sick. Whether it sounds Hendrix like or not, it’s a great pedal
Great overview of all the pedals. For my style of playing, I'd go with the Fuzz Face and maybe the Univibe. I like that the FF has both germanium and silicon transistors plus the buffer making it a little more versatile in terms of fuzz tones. The Octavio and Gypsys Fuzz didn't do much for me in terms of useful or versatile tones.
Pedals with faces on them are just way too tacky and would actually drive away professionals !!
toob maniac I agree but I do like a uni-vibe and fuzz. But yeah the faces...😕
Non of these pedals remind me of Hendrix 🤷🏼♂️
These pedals have been discontinued. WHY?
I just don't hear Jimi in these pedals.
Is it an actual song at 6:29 sorry I’ve never heard it before
Only a few people know what is Jimi tone and how to sound like Jimi. You can turn the Fuzz of Fuzz Face all the way up to play Hey Joe and Purple Haze, add Octavia but not rolling off the tone and use Uni-Vibe to play SRV style Little Wing and play the wrong intro of Castle Made of Sand and pretend this is Jimi style....but this is not.
where'd you get that fat purple coily cord?
Ahh okay I get fuzz now.
MXR always release Hendrix pedal every year?
Nah, just every 6 month
@@bf7432 lol really?
I blame the Jimi estate. Looking like a rip-off with the amount of stuff they put out. :/
Only when the Estate needs money.
What no Wah......
I want them all, in cluding the purple strat! I love that farting darlek sound!
Where would you place the wah pedal?
Jimi also used a gauge lighter on 6th & 3rd string.
You are correct sir.
Pete needs a buffer for his Danishness. It's spilling all over everything.
You spelled 'ultimate hyggeboost' incorrectly.
I’ve got a min chub for these mini pedals! 🤘🏻😜
A semi?
@@LostMyMojo100 Well at my age a mini and a semi are kind of the same! lol
what an ugly colour for a guitar
I love Pete, but I'm like... Dude stop turning the volume down on the guitar! Crank it and let's hear that fuzz!!! He's so clean and smooth. Fuzz needs full input volume... Still love you guys
You are supposed to turn off the buffer of the first fuzz while testing the others, just saying.
These sound awful.
If size is not an issue just get the billy gibbons Siete Santos... fuzz and octavia in the same case with a graphic EQ ... Billy and Jimi were buds ... similar things going on with fuzz....
Not really a massive Hendrix fan, but I still want all of these. They sound so awesome.
That's probably because the pedals don't sound like Hendrix. I'm a big fan of his and I'm not feeling these, despite the magic of Pete's hands.
I stand corrected. Fuzz 1st octavier 2nd wah 3rd then the univibe.. just saw it on a you tube channel. The Riff w Nick Sevigny.
It's odd if can't play Hendrix riffs in video where you present Hendrix stuff to sell those, but UA-cam's rules i know. I think you can still play Hendrix riffs without backingtrack and not get copyright.
It's so irritating that they don't crank the Fuzz Face... They come alive once the fuzz level is at the top of its range. Leave the buffer off and ride the volume knob on the guitar.
🏴💙🏴💙🏴💙🏴💙🏴💙🏴💙🏴💙 YASS more, more, MORE for the #pedalpervs
It's funny I tried the 3 fuzz pedals the other day at a guitar store and I really liked the band of gypsies one, but on your video I like the sounds of the octave one more. Anyway great pedals, makes you feel like being at Woodstock!!
Put a wah into a univibe into in the fuzz face to get that pulse. Then have a reverse loop switch to run the wah backwards,It sounds like seagulls. Use a volume pedal post wah so you don’t peel the paint off of the walls. Check out Randy Hanson’s Hendrix tribute show.
