You’re so beautiful.. I’m just getting started & was thinking about TC helicon product, but then I saw this. Very cool
Oi. Superb demonstration. About the name. Turnip Greens is a direct reference to the sounds of down home southern fried music. A little country, a little blues, a little rockabilly, a little jazz, a little metal, and a whole lotta Soul! The pedal does a great job. Play some Dickie Betts through it, you'll see. Or maybe Dimebag, or SRV. Y'all stay real and stay real high! Paz y luz.
It's great, watching a player who plays simply for the joy of it... Mary, it's a pleasure watching someone who enjoys what they do, especially, when they do it well. Your enthusiasm is contagious! Cheers, from across the waters....
Thank you so much Tony!
Mary Spender
You're very welcome....
It was my pleasure.
Love the riff at 6.14: I always enjoy the way that trying a new pedal or setting will suggest a way of playing that can sometimes be quite different to the way one usually plays.
With your playing style, I can see why you played clean for so long.
My overdrive right now is a Soul Food...........and now you've dragged me into this pedal! Thank you!!
Thanks for watching! :)
@@pookachu64 that's what I got!
Your delight in discovering how fun it is playing a pushed guitar is refreshing.
Michael Taylors haha!
"Turnip Greens" - a Southern States food specialty."Turnip greens are extremely easy to grow, especially in fall. As nights get longer and cooler, turnip greens become crisper and sweeter." ..... So the pedal is appropriately named. Awesome.
I use a soul food and love it. The overdrive is clear but still gives that vintage mid-range grit of overdrive.
:D
I gotta try this one out with my electric kazoo 🎤
You have just entered a new world of a tremendous vice where you will be utterly at the mercy of what we call effects pedals...say good-bye to your freedom. LOL....:)
haha they're like candy!
I find it quite refreshing to see someone getting into pedals for the first time! Your playing is really good as well! Pedals should be used to color your sound, not bury it in a wash of noise! keep doing what you are, you are just beginning to discover the value of guitar landscaping!!!
Yes indeed! Thanks!
Thanks for sharing - lovely playing. Your guitar is really cool
Thank you :)
Hi Mary and world! I was so excited and I don’t think very many people within earshot of my shouts of joy would understand! I was the winning bidder on D’Addario giving Tuesday of the ElectroHarmoniX Turnip Greens. I’ve been wanting a superior overdrive and I remembered your video when I saw this specific Turnip Greens signed by Mike Matthews! Not only do I get the fantastic OD, but also going to a good cause? I wish more of life’s decisions were so simple! Thanks for shining a light on this little Overdrive of mine… let it shine!!!!
"I'm really proud of just being clean", too... : ) You have a wonderful, delightful presence, about you... Keep up the good work!
haha in more ways than one!
That was lovely - but I mostly wanted to see what books you've been reading!
(Also, turnip greens are a staple of African-American "soul food," so that is presumably the connection...)
Teach! Haha
I love the way you play; sounds amazing with reverb. I'll search your music on Spotify.
Thank you!
thumbs up for the great licks and the surf green guitar. nice fingerpicking technique .
Thank you :) isn't it a beaut
I've been trying to enhance my sound and this video is definitely making me excited! Great tutorial. We need more ladies doing this!
Thanks Mickey!
I have the same thought process. I’m a simpleton. My friend gave me a Blessed Mother pedal for my bday. I’m thinking, “what am I gonna do with that?” I just play a tele through a peavy delta blues combo. That’s it. I’m happy with that. When I’m singing, and then go to a solo, I always hit the pedal too late at the beginning, and too late at the end.
Super demo Mary. Those tones are amazing!
Thank you Santos!
Great playing and great sounding pedal. I like these subtle but cool effects. Thanks for the demo.
I have mine coming in the mail !!!! I got one straight after seeing this video, love the content thanks for your videos
YAY!
Fab playing and a snazzy take on a very versatile pedal. Oh, that is a sweet reverse verb. Many thanks for sharing your perspective!
Thanks so much for watching :)
The reverb goes well with the percussive style of your right hand. Very nice.
I enjoyed this review, it's refreshing to hear someone review it because they love it, and not because they're selling it. I just subscribed also!
Robb Solid thank you Robb! :)
Very enjoyable demonstration of a great pedal, thanks.
Also refreshing to hear a home-grown accent for a change (nothing against our friends across the water of course, it just makes a nice change).
Subbed.
haha awww thank you
Well take note of how great her clean sound is. A splash of verb and super transparent drive is most suitable. Such solid playing.
Delightful to hear a pedal being used in a sonic palette for something other than metal tones these days.
Thoroughly entertaining video and your accent is divine into the bargain - subscribed.
:) Thanks so much!
Lysdexia and.
That is indeed a nice sounding pedal. Mellow, subtle and the name is really fitting for it too.
Hey Mary, ThankYou! for introducing me to a pedal I hadn't seen/heard before and the excellent review! So much better when the person who demo's is really into the pedal themselves. I could watch you play all day! Such lovely dimples!! Very lovely Lady!
Thanks so much Steven!
That ability to switch the order of FX is cool. Most people would say you should place overdrive first. Generally that's true, but in the 70's Santana got some epic sounds overdriving his reverb.
I've been playing for three decades :) . You have a nice calm friendly way of presenting your videos, and as for your playing, I like the way you refrain from trying to impress, and that's great because, for one thing, it doesn't distract from sounds coming from what you are showing us.
I can tell you've been playing for a long time because you have that economy of movement in your left hand. You know how to keep it supple and fluid by relaxing the hand between shifts.
You are a natural. Don't stop playing :) Good luck with your channel!
Thank you so much for the feedback! I hope I can keep playing for three decades, you must still enjoy it. What kind of guitar do you play?
Quite refreshing hearing someone just talk about how much they love a pedal and how it helps them personally as a musician, rather than reviewing the pedal in terms of trying to tell people exactly what the pedal is and what it does! Great video :)
i am very tempted to buy one, really nice pedal and the send/return feature looks amazing. cheers from brazil
Felipe Abreu go for it! such a useful tool!
Great work Mary, I have fancied this pedal for a while, but you and your playing have sold me! EHX should hire you! Both your tone and playing are fantastic, keep up the good work.
Nice playing, and you have a very nice narrating voice as well!
Thank you! More to come :)
Thank you Mary, I know what you mean about the stigma and reluctancey about pedals. Started playing when I was 12 years old, I'm 68 now, I do remember getting a wah-wah pedal at a very young age and didn't think much about it at the time, it simply served a purpose in a couple songs, Probably some Hendrix.
But now I understand the purpose they serve in developing your depth of tone and the coloring, honestly I've been looking at electro-harmonix line of pedals and have been completely blown away.
Now I'm working on my own pedal board which has been developing over the years, a looper machine, drum machine, equalizer, delay, reverb, of course a good tuner, I think you get the picture now, the electro- harmonix organ pedals and string pedals Are so much fun . Anyways I hope you're having a wonderful and safe holiday, thank you for your hard work and all that you bring to us as subscribers. Stay blessed and keep safe, much love from Texas. Danny
I've been playing 15 years without a pedal, I was also very proud of it, because the tone came from my playing and I was sure I could make any amp and any guitar sound great just with my playing skills... recently I bought the Friedman BE-OD and I love it, now I want to buy all the pedals in the world!!!
yay me tooooo!
this is a happy video with mustard , nice playing very enjoyable to listen too !
Subscribed, awesome beautiful playing that was, reminded me a lot of Flamenco as I lived in Spain for many years. Atb, stunning work Senorita. X
Great demo! and nice playing! I'll have to check this pedal out! Thanks Mary!
Thanks for watching :) really happy you liked it!
I just bought this pedal from the PMT in Cambridge! Demo it in the store made me realize it's the perfect pedal for me, especially with the crazy sound scapes you can do.
Yes so good! PMT is totally my favourite store, a toy shop for musicians!
You'd sound great with a subtle compressor pedal like the Xotic.. like your guitar style, reminded me that I need to be more gentle w my touch at times, I tend to hit the dirt and caveman the thing too often! well done, GL!
Both styles are good! Thanks so much :)
That pedal is very awesome !!! Mine is my reverb. it's like a tiny multi-fx in a little box.
Pedal boards are an obsession Mary, welcome to the journey!, it never ends !
:D
"it's very cool!" all I need to know about a pedal thank you!
Jesus!!! I love that single cut you are playing...BAM! LOVE IT!
great presentation. Clear and easy to watch. Nice size on the Picture in Picture.
Good Stuff !
I like your monitor stands.
me too!
Hi marry. That pedal is brilliant and you play really well. Can’t wait for more videos by you and thanks for sharing. Xx gareth from wales. Xx
omg what a great job, you just sold me, the electro-harmonix thanks Mary !!
haha thanks Jonas!
you kick ass sing like nobody else and your playing is splendid you should a really big name
I'm working on it!
nice to hear musicians from Bristol. I live as well in Bristol
Yay Bristol!
excellent demonstration and beautiful playing Mary.
Thank you!
You may want to try an electro harmonix 44 magnum on your pedalboard. A tiny, spare amp in case of emergency.
Not quite the warmth of a tube amp, but you could definitely play a gig with it in a pinch.
I just got the EHX Grand Canyon and can't believe how good it is. Recommended!
Just listening to you talk is extremely pleasant to hear.
At first I was like, ah, I can get that sound from the other 30 pedals I have (he says unapologetically ). But then you played the reverse...and I'm off to buy it!
YAY! It's incredible isn't it. Have you got one yet? Let me know how you get on!
My first 4 years playing(12-16) I only used my amp for drive/reverb and then a wah for quite awhile before pedal experimenting. Really dig your video. You play so smoothly.
Awesome! Any pedal recommendations?
Awesome! Any pedal recommendations?
Mary Spender I could recommend pedals all day but you play a really good variety of different genres on your channel. Then there's live vs studio. This article opened my eyes to how a great live musician doesn't need expensive boutique pedals.proguitarshop.com/andyscorner/prince-the-unsung-guitar-hero
If you've never checked out proguitarshopdemos UA-cam channel you should. Wide spectrum of different styles. Keep kickin ass
Thanks so much for this!
I know nothing about pedals as I play acoustic so this is great for me. I'm making a strat from scratch and will need some tech when it's done. Thanks.
This is the best video showing a pedal Straightforward. With a great performance. 👍
Oh my gosh. I just found your channel and I've been loving every single video.
That reverse is awesome
Great Mary! You sounded great, and it was refreshing to see a demo with a different narrative - it gets really old seeing the same old format, with pedal demos. Especially nice because you clearly weren't sponsored. I think that's what gave you the lattitude to fly your own banner. That's what gets stale about the same old same old demos... when it's just so blatant that you're being marketed at. Yours was honest & sincere. Genuine 👍 That stuff resonates with me above all else.
Once addicted you can't stop discovering the colours of sound.👍
Cheers Mezza. Enjoyed hearing you put this pedal through its paces.
your playing is lovely
You need to checkout "That Pedal Show" and that will help you out with any of your technical sonic questions.
Some of the best clean sounds are from OD pedals and the guitar volume rolled back. Jimi Hendrix achieved his clean sound from a fuzz pedal and backed off guitar volume.
The soul food is a Klon clone, which is a treble booster.
Just watch "That Pedal Show" and you'll get some great info.
I'd also suggest you check out 50s style wiring on your guitars if you use the volume knob frequently to avoid muddy tone when volume is rolled back.
Great videos by the way.
Thanks so much for the advice. I really appreciate it.
What a marvellous sound, great playing and your video really makes me want this awesome pedal!
I watch guitar pedal videos all the time, and it's really refreshing to see a woman! Thank you!
Love your guitar playing and EHX pedals........
A very enjoyable and informative video. Lovely pedal and great playing! Keep up the good work.
MalfreyArts thank-you :) more coming sooooon
Wow, what a demo! I have reverbs... I have overdrives, but that's something special! Will definitely keep in mind for a smaller travel board, what a great sound you have.
:D
I like that the turquoise guitar is playing turnip greens.🐸
Excellent playing ... skills. Thanks for this vid. I'll look for more.
Btw I love that you use books to get your monitors to the right height (I do the same)
haha cheapest stands ever!
Well done video, showing the box separate as you adjust it, very good.
Cool ! Loved the demo
I found your channel by accident and I thank fate for that. You're so refreshing , honest and candid as well as informative. What an idea for a channel, huh? Seriously great improvs and tasty playing.. Yu go gurl. A
Albert Arguelles thanks so much Albert! really kind of you
Finding channels like this just make my day! Thank you for you :)
Hulk Slayer your comment just made my day :) thank you for watching
Hi Mary, This is the first video of yours that I've seen kudos to you. This is an excellent demo. I rely on soul food and didn't know about holy grail. Thanks for the info.
Thanks so much for watching!
Great pedal!!! Use it all the time with the "treble" side of my Chapman Stick...
Thank you! That sounds like a great idea
You might be interested in an Exciter effect also. It twinkles the high and rounds out the bass.
It's all about the Soul POG! Pair that up with a good reverb and you can do those huge Ryan Adams sounds.
Joseph Pickard cool!
Very nice! Soul food is a great way to get that elusive Klon tone. Sounds good
Yes it is :)
Hmm, been looking for something to add to my pedal board. Nice tones, thanks Mary😊
:D
Hey Mary, just discovered your channel. Thanks for sharing this video!
The loop on the pedal is really fun to mess with but that switch is really magical. I accidentally find amazing tones all the time with that switch to the left.
Love your playing and your style. Keep up the good work.
Bought one of these a few years back...its just a beautiful sounding thing...
You've got me sold lass... This, a delay and a looper and I'm good.
That reverse reverb sounded mint!
David Holmes yes that's seriously all you need! it's the best!
saw this pedal at NAMM and just loved the design! good to know it sounds sweet too. thanks for the demo!
No problem :)
I just brought home the B9 Organ Machine - also an EHx pedal - the older of the 2 with the C9 more "current" I guess but I found the old organ sounds and their ability to reach the Hammond B3 sound quite appealing - plus old orthodox type organ selections including cathedral, gospel, - quite amazing. Love your jazz chord solo sound!
Great! I'm in love with my pedal world, too!
If you are from the American south (Dixie) you why they called it turnip greens. holy Grail + soul food pedals Holly Grail would point to southern Baptist Churches and Soul Food is another therm for Southern African American food which Turnip greens is a major dish in, and one of my favorite dishes, soul food cooking.
What lovely, soulful playing.
Excellent!!! Thank you!!!
Sweet pedal! Love your guitar!
You've got great taste in gear and you play beautifully.
thank you very much!
Might want to check out the Electro-harmonix B9 Pedal. With your picking style , it could be another "love" moment. :)
Bought it recently. Very high quality reverb and overdrive. My only critism is that i'd prefer a Tremelo-function over the Reverb-Inverse.
her chordal style is soooo beautiful
