I'd love to see a video with John and, for example, Pete (but I'm not picky who), where Pete dials in a tone on the victory V40 Deluxe, and then John walks us through getting a similar tone with a quad cortex (or some other digital gear) played through a FRFR, and then bring in Lee with a blindfold and he plays through both and picks his favourite.
Congrats, Captain, on bringing in another voice for a different perspective. Frankly, I’m 52 and pretty active in performing. I use digital when it makes sense and analog when it makes sense. I’ve never understood people getting emotionally constipated over it. Would you use a hammer when a screwdriver is needed? Probably not. The best video you could do to put this whole thing to bed would be to shoot out the digital recreation of an effect vs. the analog, ie the Helix Tubescreamer vs. an actual TS9 or whatever. Captain dials in an analog tone, and then give Pete and John 10 minutes and see who can get it closest using the digital thing. Blindfold Captain as the judge.
Tons of respect for Lee acknowledging his limitations - that's hard! Very excited to see a fresh viewpoint. John mentioned modelers through FRFRs - that's exactly the sort of thing I want to see done at Andertons TV standards.
I really like his approach of having some more "traditionally grounded" presets for gigs, while still having some more experimental sounds available (as a bass player that often hauls an upright, an electric and a synth to gigs, consolidation is KEY). I think the addition of John will be a nice way to round things out - Lee & Pete come from a tube/valve amp and more-analog effects background but are open to digital effects/amps (not preferred), and John comes from a digital effects/amps background but is open to tube/valve amps and analog effects (not preferred). For the Bass videos, it might be great to get John in with Nate & Lee, and program out some digital things for bass (have Nate & Lee share some of the sounds they're looking for, John programs it, and then "Back In The Room!"). Cheers!
I'd really love seeing John learn how to tailor presets to bass, and seeing Nate and Lee learn how digital stuff can be programmed, I really hope this gets going, it'd be sick.
This is a great addition! Kudos to you, Captain, for bringing John on. As a digital guy myself, I look forward to seeing what John brings to Andertons TV in the future!
I think one of my favourite things about digital kit is the cost effectiveness combined with flexibility. I'd love to see you taking John's live preset and recreate it with valve amps and pedals and see where you go. Perhaps a "cheap" version with Tone City pedals, a more boutique one, then on the digital side maybe like the Line 6 Pod Go and the Quad cortex. How much are your relative options? I appreciate you probably don't want this to turn in to Digital vs Analogue too often, but I feel like all these shootouts you've done in the past is attempting to recreate the Les Paul + Marshall with maybe a bit of reverb, but that's not really what the digital stuff is trying to do, so it'd be cool to try and get valve stuff on digital's terms.
Idea for video content - I'd love to see something about putting together patches and creating sounds. That sort of straight out of the box, how to get started experience.
And for a Sound Like challenge - put John and his Neural DSP up against Matt and Rabea with their usual pick of the Andertons showroom and see who sounds best
Love those new Chapman more traditional t style guitars! Well done Rob. And I know it was hard work and taking your customers thoughts and feelings into account heavily.
It's very nice, however at nearly * £900 I'd be walking past it to buy an American tele, yes the specs are nice but the made in Indonesia tag is a real downside
I have followed John for a few years now and think he is one of the best guitarists and song writers I have heard in a long time. Would definitely recommend anyone watching this to check out his channel! It's so great to see him getting well deserved recognition on here. Comes across such a down to earth and humble guy. Phenomenal playing as always! Cannot wait to see more!!
That’s really cool The Captain decided to bring in someone fresh like John, he’s a talented young man, and agreed it certainly gives an insight into digital gear, which is something I’m not very familiar with, congrats John
Welcome John! I'm extremely old and know nothing about the digital experience. Videos that focus on the very rudimentary basics would be very helpful! Thanks !
Suggestion: pick an analog sound/song, then walk through the thinking/analyzing process of building the sound with signal flow and setting up the stomps. Then share it in the Neural cloud with the Anderton’s tag. Then do A/B jams swapping between the analog/digital boards with different guitars with John, Pete, and Lee. Use the set up for guitar reviews for a while before building a new one. We’ll want a camera view to watch the digital building process. We’re interested in learning the thinking process to craft signal flows for iconic sounds.
I think it would be really cool if you made a video where John makes a few presets on the QC from scratch. Perhaps with Lee, Pete and/or Rabea just to see their different perspectives and ideas. No specific goal in mind, but just a video of making, perhaps 3, 4 or 5 presets.
Always found that most ambient players use specific boutique pedals such as OBNE, Meris, EQD - and that digital fx are not seen as "flexible" enough to achieve large wet reverbs, pitching shifting delays and so on - would be good to see how far these units can be pushed to create these sort of sounds! Appreciate it might be out of context of what you guys are aiming for, but I'd definitely tune in for it!
@@davidfaustino4476 sorry I'm talking from a multi fx Vs single pedal perspective, maybe I should have said big sky etc, they're analogue aren't they 🙂
Most Strymon are really multifx units. And they may have analog chains but use digital chips. Like Timeline adds chorus, OD, and others fx to do their thing
Interesting, either way I guess my point was more aimed towards digital multi fx and their perceived lack of customisation. I'm sure someone like John could give more insight into the possibilities of what's possible with these units (line 6, quad cortex) Vs the niche single pedals used in ambient guitar videos (pedalzone, knobs etc)
Welcome John! Look forward to your content. My old man was a professional guitarist in the 60s/70s. Every time something new and digital came out he was on it like a car bonnet, because he was born of an era when technology was limited, when technology was improving, and he always had his eye on the latest thing. When I started playing (around about when you were born lol) I was spoilt for choice and loved the classic sounds, so moved to valve, etc. If the old man was alive today he'd be watching your videos about digital strides, and I'd be watching Cap, and Danish Pete with our classic sounds. Funny how it works.
I appreciate having somebody who grew up digitally on the show, a different perspective will be very useful , especially if not limited to digital gear (comfort zone) but also involved into traditional stuff testing and demonstration
John is the man! So happy to see him on this channel. What a ledge! Great choice Andertons! Looking forward to seeing more from him. What a player man 👊🏻
Nice to hear a young perspective. I am old school, guitar into an amp with minimal effects. But, times are changing and I love to learn/hear new things. I believe that young people are the future…teach them well and let them rock away. I look forward to more videos. Cheers!
Love everything about this. Brilliant playing, cool tones, great rapport with the Capt and John comes across well. Although I'd love to see him play a Lester through a JCM800. I'd also love to see him with Mick and Dan...
Good on you for realizing that there was a market for the younger players who aren’t all that enamored with 100 year old tube technology. In all seriousness, decisions like this is what makes Andertons channels so great. You’re open to trying new things and understanding your audience. Thanks for the content.
Welcome to the fold "Digital John" . I think it's a great idea to bring in a fresh perspective on the newer format of digital gear . Personally I'm with Pete & Lee and only use tube amps and cabs, but open to learn new things. I just recently went to a stereo rig after buying one of the TC "G" systems when Anderton's had their big blowout sale and it's awesome ! Who knows what I will be using next year ?
sounded great,that set up way beyond anything i understand but this is what is on it's way. needs someone to explain all of this , great. good luck all.
Loved from the first notes. Makes sense Lee has to gradually begin stepping back if he’s ever gonna get to retire :) Look forward to it, thank you Captain and WELCOME John.
You should make a video with him playing through digital and valve amps and have him try to pick out the sound he prefers and reveal if it was digital or valve.
Welcome to the channel, John! I’d love to see someone show what the new Headrush MX5 is capable of. Captain and Pete did their reaction (and that stupid noisegate on the input made it sound mediocre) but they didn’t really get into what it’s capable of.
This is a great idea and long overdue. I’m older than you Lee and I’ve embraced the digital world. Haven’t touched an amp since I got the Quad Cortex. Big welcome to John and really looking forward to more videos from the two of you together.
I'd like to see you guys revisit the Boss GT1000, but focus on the Output select and how it works in front of an amp. It is the greatest feature about the unit and so many people still fail to understand it. John can probably wrap his head around it and really teach your audience.
Lee, you may not be the youngest guy in the room anymore but please don't ever leave the videos! You are the Heart of the channel. And while I really like addition of John, I don't know what I would do without you.
Great idea to serve the whole digital marketplace of customers who want the versatility of plugins and digital gear. This is a terrific opportunity for this kid. Great chops and player!! I own mostly all tube amps, with the exception of a Nux-300 and it’s all about what gets the job done for the right situation and environment.
Good to see you’re bringing someone young in with modern technology the more audience you can reach the better for your business which in a roundabout way is better for all of us
Long overdue but such a welcome breath of fresh air! I don't begrudge Cap/Pete/and Co for "not getting it" because they all know tone well enough to spot good and bad, I think it's just super great to have someone that already knows the product beyond "scrolling through presets" because we all know how presets sound stock. Welcome John! Killer fun tones here, looking forward to more!
John is an extraordinary player. A generation older than lee, I nonetheless made a transition from tubes to digital some time back and have been a helix user since nearly day 1. I love the creativity it affords and that young musicians can wield it so expertly. I hope to see him regularly on your channel. Getting him to demonstrate his tone creation process would be a great opportunity to play to his talents. He’s charming and knowledgeable and I can’t wait to learn a ton from him.
Great video! Great to see someone that has grown up with digital gear. I’ve grown up with valve amps, so love that sound and always will, but really enjoyed seeing and hearing what the new generation of guitar players is using. It’d be great to see how John builds up patches from scratch and what music some of the less-traditional sounds go well with. It’s going to be interesting to see just how good software-driven guitar sounds can get!
I'm a 57yo with a collection of stuff in a modest home studio I've embraced most everything that's come along and still use most of it. The thing I'd most like to see is a fresh mind set on patch navigation. you touched on that here regarding the ergonomics of the switches I've spent a lot of time and energy programming switchers and midi controllers... the possibilities are seemingly endless. Which I love Trouble is, the deeper the rabbit hole the more convoluted is the path to "that sound" Yes, I could setup a couple of banks and call it done but I've built an aircraft carrier and seems a pity to just cruise around the bay on it.
I’m 51 years-old, and a valve amp fan, but I also love bands such as Chon and Polyphia, and I also use a Fractal FM3 a lot. I look forward to seeing John’s videos. He seems like a great addition to the Andertons team.
I really enjoyed that video. I've still got my Digitech GNX4 that I bought from Andertons back in the day, and still haven't got to grips with it. I hope that John will be able to teach us how to use this expensive and complicated kit. I love the sounds he demonstrated.
As a 51 year old traditionalist I’m happy to see younger players coming through and showing us the way. I’m put off by what I perceive to be the complexity of digital rigs. I’m hoping to be proven wrong. 😆🎸
I’m a similar age and require my amp to also keep the room warm :) I do appreciate technological advances, but really I “just wanna play” . Hey that’s just me though and appreciate the next generation to approach stuff differently and I do commend Lee and team in acknowledging this !!! Good luck all
Amazing player! Been a while since I've been blown away. You should do a video where you swap rigs. Or where you see who can closest to some classic guitar tones using digital and analogue effects.
Hey all! Thanks for having me guys, was a wicked day 🤘🏻
hmm, that Chris Buck pick holding style...love the playing.
WELCOME!! loved your playing
Great job!
Awesome playing. Will be watching every time you are on. Breath of fresh air.
Welcome aboard!
Personally, I feel that what you need is a presenter who's rubbish at guitar so that I know what it'll sound like when I get one - I'm available!
With a name like Martin Taylor, don't be surprised if some people disbelieve you... :D
Gotta cover all extremes
😂

I think that would be a valid series. Include "classic" tones too.
This needs to happen!
Signed
He plays exceptionally, but until we see him run the gauntlet of blindfold challenges we won't know if he's truly up to snuff.
i think thats a bit metoo
@@daveh4925 Whoosh!
YES. Idea! Blind fold, modeler pedals, which is which
Yep, see if he completes the canned Surstromming Holiday dinner...Pete, you have your mission :) Welcome aboard John!

👋 Hi John!
Hello my guys
This is a great addition! Kudos to you, Captain, for bringing John on. As a digital guy myself, I look forward to seeing what John brings to Andertons TV in the future!
Welcome John! I'd be interested to see digital gear shoot-outs for audio interfaces and FRFR cabinets.
I think one of my favourite things about digital kit is the cost effectiveness combined with flexibility. I'd love to see you taking John's live preset and recreate it with valve amps and pedals and see where you go. Perhaps a "cheap" version with Tone City pedals, a more boutique one, then on the digital side maybe like the Line 6 Pod Go and the Quad cortex. How much are your relative options?

Been a fan of John's for a little over a year, incredible player and an even better song writer. Can't wait for what he has in store for the future.
"Designated young person" - I love it
I've been intrigued by the world of digital tone for a while so I'm looking forward to learning more!
Idea for video content - I'd love to see something about putting together patches and creating sounds. That sort of straight out of the box, how to get started experience.
And for a Sound Like challenge - put John and his Neural DSP up against Matt and Rabea with their usual pick of the Andertons showroom and see who sounds best
@@amethysttalon3507 This is a very interesting idea i think. A breaking the bank sounds like with a comparison to what the Neural can do.
This has put a smile on my face for the entire 20 minutes!
Great sounds! Great fun!
Love it!
Love those new Chapman more traditional t style guitars! Well done Rob. And I know it was hard work and taking your customers thoughts and feelings into account heavily.
It's very nice, however at nearly *
£900 I'd be walking past it to buy an American tele, yes the specs are nice but the made in Indonesia tag is a real downside
@Mark Seymour just looked it up, the cheaper ones are Indonesian but the pros are made in Korea.

Even better do an A / B with a standard set up. Also go into detail on the IR's that he's using.,

What a horrible thing to say! He’s not THAT old lol
I'm an old school bluesy stomp box kinda guy but I gotta tell ya John is a GREAT addition.
Holy moly- just checked his channel out- that’s some great music - love it!
You should make a video with him playing through digital and valve amps and have him try to pick out the sound he prefers and reveal if it was digital or valve.
Good thing you have a new guy onboard! 💪
Welcome to the channel, John! I’d love to see someone show what the new Headrush MX5 is capable of. Captain and Pete did their reaction (and that stupid noisegate on the input made it sound mediocre) but they didn’t really get into what it’s capable of.
This is a great idea and long overdue. I’m older than you Lee and I’ve embraced the digital world. Haven’t touched an amp since I got the Quad Cortex. Big welcome to John and really looking forward to more videos from the two of you together.
This is a brilliant perspective on where guitar playing and equipment is going. Digital is here to stay. More please!
I'm an old luddite myself, but John comes across with a pretty good attitude. I'll keep checking him out. Maybe I'll learn something.
That intro was awesome, finally someone who doesn't only play blues :D
I'd like to see you guys revisit the Boss GT1000, but focus on the Output select and how it works in front of an amp. It is the greatest feature about the unit and so many people still fail to understand it. John can probably wrap his head around it and really teach your audience.
A+ agree!!
I'm a 52 year old fuddy duddy. John is a fantastic player and I'm happy you guys got a digital expert.
58 and digital for a decade. Glad to see you guys catching up ;-)
Video idea: “Sounds like” doing digital recreation - would love to see how he thinks about getting tone and applying it to line 6 or neural hardware.
This is a great idea 💡!
Cool idea. But I miss “sounds like” in general as well.
Good to see ! He’s a great player !
Lee, you may not be the youngest guy in the room anymore but please don't ever leave the videos! You are the Heart of the channel. And while I really like addition of John, I don't know what I would do without you.

Good to see you’re bringing someone young in with modern technology the more audience you can reach the better for your business which in a roundabout way is better for all of us
Is it crazy that my first thought is blindfold him and try to have him find the digital vs. Tube amps!
Lee is on fire finding new artist for us to enjoy. Dave, now John. Awesome. Got you SUB'ed up John.
Awesome! As a previous naysayer of digital and recently (
Yes John🤘🏼 Be interesting to emulate old school 70’s metal and rock through the new tech
Like watching Lee enjoy watching others play! This is easily my favorite channel for gear for years and I'm in Canada for crying out loud!
Nice! Wow, that Chapman is gorgeous 😍
Long overdue but such a welcome breath of fresh air! I don't begrudge Cap/Pete/and Co for "not getting it" because they all know tone well enough to spot good and bad, I think it's just super great to have someone that already knows the product beyond "scrolling through presets" because we all know how presets sound stock.

Well deserved! Already a Sub of John and a big fan of his style
Awesome! I'm an old version of John who's always loved the digital side. It's great to see someone else with the same background. Have fun John 🤘
Has an incredibly unique style. Good pickup, lads.
Whey John's great, as well as Pete, Lee and all the others. Please bring John back!
New take on things always welcome. Good luck John.😎

Mate put risers on the top row of buttons so you can press those more easily - it won't compromise the bottom row either
100% big buttons on the top row are where it's at

As someone who bought my Digitech GSP-21 new, I want to speak up for us geezer digital guitarists to endorse this addition! Welcome, John!
Welcome John! This is exciting!
About time. Well done Lee on listening on this one.
I'm a 57yo with a collection of stuff in a modest home studio
I've embraced most everything that's come along and still use most of it.
The thing I'd most like to see is a fresh mind set on patch navigation. you touched on that here regarding the ergonomics of the switches
I've spent a lot of time and energy programming switchers and midi controllers... the possibilities are seemingly endless. Which I love
Trouble is, the deeper the rabbit hole the more convoluted is the path to "that sound"
Yes, I could setup a couple of banks and call it done
but I've built an aircraft carrier and seems a pity to just cruise around the bay on it.
Great right hand work and tasty playing! Can’t wait to hear more!
So good to hear the jam portion with an alternate tuning.
I’m 51 years-old, and a valve amp fan, but I also love bands such as Chon and Polyphia, and I also use a Fractal FM3 a lot. I look forward to seeing John’s videos. He seems like a great addition to the Andertons team.
I don’t think I can watch without Danish Pete!!!! The Captain and Pete’s banter is funny at times but Pete’s chops are inspiring and beautiful.
I really enjoyed that video. I've still got my Digitech GNX4 that I bought from Andertons back in the day, and still haven't got to grips with it. I hope that John will be able to teach us how to use this expensive and complicated kit. I love the sounds he demonstrated.
Amazing ! Someday I can visit Anderton's store and get my guitar ang some equipments to make my own room studio .. soon 🙏
the fact yall even made a video for this guy, kudos to Andertons. most companies would just brush him along. but good to see some new blood
Sounds good Captain ...welcome john ,so that's digital pedals, an amps in a box ,an digital amps...👍👌🤘
As a 51 year old traditionalist I’m happy to see younger players coming through and showing us the way. I’m put off by what I perceive to be the complexity of digital rigs. I’m hoping to be proven wrong. 😆🎸
I’m a similar age and require my amp to also keep the room warm :) I do appreciate technological advances, but really I “just wanna play” . Hey that’s just me though and appreciate the next generation to approach stuff differently and I do commend Lee and team in acknowledging this !!! Good luck all
@@dwcsystems absolutely. Long live guitar and music, in whatever form!
Amazing player! Been a while since I've been blown away.
You should do a video where you swap rigs.
Or where you see who can closest to some classic guitar tones using digital and analogue effects.
