Firstly, brilliant videos mate, actually says how things are In a straightforward and easy to follow way! I've watched a fair bit of your content and it's helped loads, and belive me I need it😅. What would be a amazing instruction video would be is how to use your pick hand, different rhythms, methods etc, I think you presenting one like that would help loads of folk. Anyway please keep posting, your awesome. Cheers Mark.
Thanks Colin. Don't use a delay device myself, makes me think I should get one. Love the Setzer 6120. I have the '97 Duane Eddy version with Dynasonics, great tone! Love all your videos. Keep Rockin'!
@@rockabillyrevolution Howdy from North Carolina In my profile picture beside my homemade electric guitar I have my modified Gibson ga5 LP reissue tube amp that me and my grandpa modified by putting a tape loop machine in so I don't rely on guitar pedals my amp also has vintage 50s 12AU7 RCA tubes I'm 20 turning 21 soon and I've always preferred the 50s rock and roll sound my amp is pretty much like a Ray Butts Echosonic
This is great man. Yeah i make music, sort of hard rock metal stuf. But lately ive been on this huge Rockabilly kick , i feel lole its the missing piece to the puzzle in my musical journeys!!
@@rockabillyrevolution In this upside-down world it is people like us with our irremovable passion for beauty and real music who keep things tight together and alive. Cheers mate!
Thanks BlackRaven. I really appreciate your comment. Yes that's what I am trying to put across. Music is meant to be shared really and the internet was made for this. Keep rocking my friend!
Totally agreed. For the Sound you need good palm muting, Delay and just "a" guitar with some kind of clean amp... That's all you need for Rockabilly.. except you want the wiggle stick sound, then you need a Bigsby. I tried different Trem systems.. but nothing really comes close to a Bigsby, except for the Duesenberg one... Doing it on a Strat or Floyd Rose... really doesn't sound right to me. haha... But as always that's just a personal thing, whatever floats anyones boat! The one thing that unites us is that we Rock! TCR!
@@rockabillyrevolution I agree. Because it's also more acoustic for me. Those Jazzguitars are just plain great. Gretsch is just great Quality, no matter at which pricepoint. Played from Streamliners over Electromatics to a Brian Setzer Hotrod.. They all have that.. Gretsch Sound...I'm still have my eyes on a Orange Electromatic.. It's just too iconic of a color✌🏻
put all the dials to 12 ociock then add or subtract bass / treble / mids to suit your taste. Sometimes, I just put on one tone setting on full and close off the rest to get a special effect but that is rare. hope this helps and thanks for your comment.
I have exactly the same pedals. ..with a Bugera v5 and a Peavey Delta Blues ..and it really sounds. With more money you can try all the Nocturne Pedals. ..like Atomic Brain....
Hi Jerome. Thanks for your comment. Have you tried the nocturne pedals? They are a significant investment but I have heard good things. I have a way huge aqua puss but it doesn't really get the tone I want.
@@rockabillyrevolution you can adjust the amount of bass you want, the preamp button adds a little brightness bite and gain, the Abby button gives you an additional boost to overdrive your amp or pedals and the tape modulation and tape mix mobs emulate tape age and warble. So yes you get some features that give you some Tweakable tonal options
@@rockabillyrevolution a bit late but I actually had the Aqua Puss too and sold it to put towards the Nocture Mystery Brain - don't regret it at all. I also use the American Sound but straight into PA.. no amp for live. They are the only two pedals I have apart from a tuner
Hi Colin having watched your video I wanted to get the same Delay pedal i.e Belcat 303 but they are very expensive now In your opinion would the new Belcat DLY 603 do the exact same job as the 303 as I'm on a bit of a tight budget?
I would expect so Paul but I haven't played one personally. One of my students recently bought one and seemed quite happy with it. The delay effect is quite a basic one so most pedals can pull it off. I hope this is helpful. Colin
Hi Jason! No I have both now because I like to have 2 amps in case one fails for any reason at a gig. It's never happened mind you! Both the BC and TM are great for slightly different reasons. The TM has a bit more rock and roll mojo in my opinion but the BC is more versatile for tone options.
Thanks for your feedback OLR. Apologies for not being more explicit on the delay settings. I had text up when I was holding the pedal advising to replicate the settings. Ideally, you are looking for quite a short delay time in the region of 150ms or 9 o'clock on the rate setting, if your pedal is more basic like mine. 1 repeat with the same level as the original signal which is usually 12 o'clock on level and repeat settings. I hope this is useful and thanks very much for your interest. keep rocking!
Hi there, most amps have a delay setting - if so you just need one repeat fairly close after the original signal. Failing that, they normally have built in reverb which you can use instead. The early guitarists had virtually no effects. You want a clean channel with a slight bit of gain so that there is a mild crunch tone. I hope this helps! Keep rocking! :-)
@@rockabillyrevolution Ice pick means something is extremely extremely bright to the point of it being really harsh and unpleasant on your ears Like it physically hurts I was thinking of getting a higher quality pedal or something
@@DavidGarcia-pi9wn that doesn't sound much fun. To be honest, a lot of pedals seem to have settings which can induce unpleasant tones / feedback. I am not sure who would choose to use these settings but presumably some people must like them! :-)If you can get useable tones that are workable for you then possibly it would be OK to stick with the pedal but if not, then definitely an upgrade sounds in order. best wishes, Colin
Great advices! Furthermore, some people will spend lots of money on « better » pickups. I believe that any pickup output can be tweaked from the amp or guitar knobs. I get nice results from a scooped mid range settings. I also use a compressor pedal to get more punch.
Gr8 vid mate .Can I ask is the landlord delay box for £30 ok ?? I havent got a ton of money and i am a bass player but I still dabble on my crap guitar and 10wt amp ,so would that do the trick .The JHS pedals sound good but are £100
Hi friend! I haven't played the landlord delay myself so difficult to be certain on that. However, I have the JHS milkman and quite honestly it's not any better than my £20 pedal other than it looks cool and has a boost switch. Chances are you will be fine with a pedal at £30. many thanks for your feedback! Colin

Thanks Alvaro - much appreciate the feedback!
Great tips thanks for posting
You’re very welcome Steve glad it was helpful 😊🎸👍
The playing tips are so helpful! Thanks!!!
Glad you like them!
could you show the American pedal switches at the Rockabill tone you get it is Great Thanks a million
How do you play Elvis song Puppet on a string on guitar using G Em D7 A using open chords & the fill ins
I have exactly the same pedals. ..with a Bugera v5 and a Peavey Delta Blues ..and it really sounds.
With more money you can try all the Nocturne Pedals. ..like Atomic Brain....

@@rockabillyrevolution I have the nocturne mystery brain tape echo pedal and it totally nails the Brian Setzer tone
@@DanielFavio I am interested in that pedal - do you get quite a lot of variance on the tone options?

I wonder if I take a lot too much reverb still. My delay seems to be too "fat" either :) ? :( ?
What settings do you use? For example with Elvis songs? it would help me a lot :))
Hi Chris, pretty much as described here is what I use.

Did you replace the Tone Master with the Blues Cube?
Hi Jason! No I have both now because I like to have 2 amps in case one fails for any reason at a gig. It's never happened mind you! Both the BC and TM are great for slightly different reasons. The TM has a bit more rock and roll mojo in my opinion but the BC is more versatile for tone options.
Good sound advice mate sometimes less is more well done
Thanks very much Kevin. I agree with you on that front! Have a great week! 😊👍
It was helpful Thanks , but you didn't mention the speed/slapback of the delay.

Is there a way I can get a rockabilly tone without a pedal? I’m a broke newbie lol! I’ve got a beginners amp and a donner strat

Is it normal for the pedal to introduce ice pick? The one I have seen to exaggerate the top end and make it almost unusable
Hi David, apologies but I am not familiar with the expression ice pick. What do you mean by this?
