- Recorded at his home studio in LA, Steve Vai talks us through three key pedals, demonstrating their various tones and how he uses them to get the Steve Vai sound. He also gives us a peek into his pedal closet - the home of his extensive collection of effects pedals.

"The flanging in this says I AM A FLANGER" - he said while holding one of the most iconic phaser pedals of all time
Well, he also calls an overdrive a distortion to be fair
@@michaeldschutte yeah, it's one thing to mix overdrive with distortion, it's a another to pick up a Rat distortion pedal and say "this transparent overdrive is really TRANSPARENT"
@thecurlylockes4069 yeah for sure. But honestly, at the end of the day I guess it doesn't matter what you call something as long as you can use it
And it is pretty clear that Vai doesn't 😂
Inspiring the masses for years....and continuing to inspire today🙏🎸
I could watch these kind of vids all day long, everyday. 🙃
So awesome! I could use about 3 more hours of this. Amazing how Steve can make that guitar sing. Absolutely incredible.
I like when players will push suspense until you’re just about ready to give up on relief, then they hit that note and everything before finally makes sense.
Playing through “pretty standard” pedals, and Steve’s sonic fingerprint comes through.😎
That little thing he plays with the bar starting at 3:27 was awesome!
Jack Butlers gonna like you…
Steve rocks 😤💪🏻
I absolutely agree with him about the color of the pedal having an effect on the way it sounds. The Boss Super Chorus has a great color and it sounds great so yes it is true.
Fantastic
Oh man, this music cave, a dream to be in, with all the equipment.
After this DD7 will be hard to find
I’m a little interested in how he’s using the mastermind in conjunction with the fc-12 to control his axe fx.
Thank God for Steve
And... Eugene's Trick Bag on the 1. Holy cow.
Would love to see more of the collection
The Jemini launch video with Steve is still a classic. Funnier than Spinal Tap 😂
Delay, distortion and wah-wah. Sounds right!
My Tube screamer in front of the amp. Boss 6 band, echoplex and my mxr analog chorus in that order in the loop. Classic tones😎
1:30 is that a distortion+ … ? 🧐 Great cinematography, btw …
Did you shoot this with a lo-res potato smeared with vaseline?!! 💦🥔🤤
Loving the Ritchie Vaimore mustache..
The wha is Dunlop Cry Baby GCB 95"Q" with auto return.
I used the Jemini with a Fender Twin amp for awhile. One pedal I wish I’d kept.
Very clever guy !
Nice video, laughed a lot :)
Great Spinal Tap parody possibly, or sill valid for april one ?
Either that or this video gives several cues as to why 'sound' is not Vai's strong point ;)
When he said wah wah, I was expecting to see his Morley signature wah.
Morley, kicked to the curb yet again.
Lol probably kept breaking. They replaced my bad horsie like 4 times before I finally gave up on it. Love the spring loaded feature tho
I love Steve, and i love the JEM but in my humble opinion the JEMINI was a horrible pedal :( It's really bassy and i was not a fan(maybe my unit was defective), sorry STEVE, you're still a legend.
It sounds horrible in this video too.
2:52 Maestro PS-1A is infact a Phaser not a Flanger.
You need to calm down son…
@@brianwarner308 Sit down Marilyn.
Stop mocking the elderly
But the concept and goal of the PS1a was to emulate a rotary (Leslie) speaker,
@@pihermoso11 Same with the Uni-Vibe, iirc??
At this point, Steve could make a signature hamster. Hamsters would fly off the shelves. And there would be internet fights on what cage Steve uses.
He's a guitar scientist, he could teach at Berklee.....
🤘😈🤘🔥🔥🔥
Okey Steve, expect a call from Josh at JHS any time soon 🙂
"Oh that Mu-Tron Bi-Phase looks cool I wonder how much that isooooMG!!! Its $5000 US."
That one is CLEEEEAN, too
Do matt pike
He really loves to play doesn't he?
I saw 2 metal zones in there
He has 2 of them, one for each of his back pockets...
hey its in fingaaars.
Cool video, if Steve wants to send me a pedal I'll review it ❤
the edge interviews vai?
I really don't think Vai uses his Ds-1 or Gemini at all anymore despite being on the board. Just saw him last week and he sounded amazing, but it was almost entirely the synergy for every sound. Also, guitar world needs to mic up better.
Not a Morley BAD Horsie?
distortion, delay, wahwah are the basic pedals for each guitar players!!!
Steve spells his last name wrong...
...it completely molests your notes.
Hey, don’t let your notes near that pedal! It wants to molest them!
great player obviously, but always has the "tone" of a ham sandwich or a pringle
Too much sizzley top-end gain with no mid...to my ears
@@davidthompson6832 yes! wrong tonewood probably and no clean Klon boost
Rat, some kind of chorus, and a tuner
A tuner doesn't count, you're allowed 1 more.
777 likes. No one dare hit that button.
Jemini pedal sounds so bad 😅
fire the video editor imediatly, the edition is very baddd
I think it is more a production issue. He isn't close miced, sounds like an ambient room mic for the audio...
It’s hard to say it but from this video his signature pedal sounds horrible!
