What modern speakers do you recommend for a 4/12 for a good rock tone? Celestion G12M 20 watt heritage, G12H30 heritage 55HZ? Or combo of both of these?
Your backing track is absolutely amazing. Tim's equally amazing melody playing just makes it Perfection². I'm really looking forward to your album coming out.
The way Tim plays so calmly is incredible. I always find myself panicking for time when soloing - trying to fit things in and not miss any beats - and it comes across in my playing. Tim is so effortless. I’ve been playing for over 35 years and still get the panics!
@@timpierceguitarI am sure a lot of guitarists including myself struggle with what is mentioned in the above comment. It will be great if you could cover this subject matter. Thanks for all the knowledge and music you are sharing!
Thank you Tim, for lifting me out of the dark place that I awoke into this morning. Your beautiful playing and sound have made me feel like I am walking on clouds. It's like the sound of Angels soaring. Simply awesome and inspired.
Tim, your playing is so otherworldly. I appreciate the incredible dexterity. However, your feel, dynamics and multiple musical stories per solo leave me breathless.
Hey, Tim, I’m pretty new here. I used to know a lot about musical “stuff” for lack of a better word. I’m kind of out of the loop about some things in my older age. I wanted to tell you that anytime fantastic guitarists came up with my kid in conversation, I would end up telling him that Rick Springfield’s guitarist was one of the best I ever heard, and that he used to absolutely blow my mind when I was younger, but I had no idea who he was. Somehow it got past me that he is you! You would have thought that when you would come up in conversation that one of us would have googled you. Just too lazy for that extreme convenience, lol. Great work, Tim! Thanks for inspiring the heck out of me years ago.
Confession: I've never been a fan of fuzz. Just never been able to get it to work with my style & playing. But I *love* an overdriven single-channel amp & riding my guitar's volume knob like you do in this vid wiht the pedal. So, yeah, even a fuzz hater like me has to say ... that sounds amazing!!!
oh, you are so welcome ... I think everyone should have one of these... i'm sure you guys are working hard to make that happen.... it's definitely something I would feel confident pre-ordering and waiting for :)
@@timpierceguitar We have more in production, but there will be a day when we can’t procure the transistors! They are extremely rare and hard to find. If you love the sound, don’t ever let yours go! Thanks again. You’re awesome! ♥️
I picked one up from KingTone and like you say, it has so many tonal colors in there with the volume control on your guitar. This is a great fuzz in my mind. Thanks Tim for the demo of the tonal differences that the volume control makes. Your video demonstrates that you can go from a fuzz, distortion and even a great overdrives sound with this pedal. Yes sir! Thanks Tim!
Tim it’s really cool what you’ve been doing with the visual graphics like the volume knob in this video! Those extra little rid bits make your channel even better 🤩
Pedals are so fun in the grand scheme of things. So many in shapes and sizes, and all with their own unique effects. Combining pedals and then some just make for infinite possibilities. What a great showcase, Tim.
Tim, this has to be some of the best moments caught by you and your team! I mean, it’s all great... but you had some great Inspiration as the tones took you on a sonic journey. Thanks for the strat volume tips with fuzz pedals. Just another reason I subscribe!! Thank you!!
In about1970 bought an original Fuzzface and paid retail from my local music store, I believe it was $29. Absolutely loved not just the pedal but discovering all the different tones and figuring out how to use them. That pedal sounds very close.
Tim, your sound with this fuzz is just crazy good ,I have the germanium version of this pedal which is really good as well but you took it to another level anyway thanks for all great video's and great playing best of the best my friend!
I got one a few weeks back and haven’t stopped playing it. It really is the best fuzz pedal I’ve heard. If you want to nail that Hendrix tone , a good germanium fuzz with a bias control will get you close, but the rest you won’t find in a pedal,
Man that fuzz tone is incredible. I've owned so many fuzzes over the years but I've found that it's distortion or overdrive I'm looking for when playing live. Probably because I'm one of those guys who does stack drives. I want to kick on a fuzz and use it like a boost (in volume and gain), but many times the signal just collapses at that point and disappears in the mix. It's not that the fuzz is bad, it just doesn't work with the way I used the rest of my rig. I still have a couple fuzzes nearby for fun or recording, but they don't make it out of the house much. Also, whoever edited this video - Great Job! Loved the volume knob graphic!
I’m so glad the algorithms concluded that I might like Tim Pierce. The algorithms were bang on. I’ve played guitar by ear for 46 years because it comes from my heart and soul and music theory has and will always be a bit of a mystery to me. You bring heart and soul and technique and personality and kindness together and share them through the vibrations of strings. Inspiring to old gump’s and fresh new spongy brains alike. This shred tickles my soul.
Look on google or Wikipedia at the songs he’s played on a session musician. He may be one of our greatest living guitarists and it’s completely under the radar.
I'm not usually a huge fan of fuzz pedals. But that sounds really nice. And I LOVE gear that responds like that to the volume pot setting and pick attack.
Amazing playing Tim. You are indeed a master of guitar, articulation and technique. Get a buzz to pick up my guitar after watching your inspirational vids. Thanks so much from Ian -uk
I always used to have my volume on 10 until I hear Eddie Van Halen one day saying he has his amps blasted but he turned his guitar to 10 and slightly backed if off a hair. It truly does make such a difference.
I don't know why but you always remind me of Jon Fishman the drummer from the band Phish. Love your dynamics and play style. We're not worthy, we're not worthy!!!!
WOW. You just made me want to throw away all my OD pedals and just use a fuzz, lol. You are so expressive even without the turn of a knob, when you picked lighter the whole thing cleaned up.
I have a way huge pickle fuzz pedal and it hisses unavoidably, so it was hard for me to tolerate using it. I took Tim's advice and ordered the King Tone Fuzz and as soon as I turned it on I knew I would be pleased. It was practically silent. The newer version combines the prior two into a single pedal and that creates more flexibility to find the sound you want. Anyway, as usual excellent advice from Tim.
You always inspire me to learn more and play better everytime I see your videos, sir. It always brings me to a smile everytime I hear and see you play. Thank you!
Tim, Cool demo! I can’t believe this. I was just going nuts with my fuzz and strat this morning. Also Stacked with an overdrive. Somehow ended up with a super usable sound AND also a David Gilmore lead sound a la time. Amazing. I also have a 1973 baseman head and cab. You reminded me I should play my guitar through it. That was some beautiful playing to my man. Thanks.
Somehow I knew that there would be “Comfortably Numb”. Made me smile. I have revision 1 of that pedal in Silicone only. Lots of fun with stacking fuzz pedals too.
Wonderful tones Tim! Your house rig is absolutely insane man! I love how you are fully analog dedicated into Pro Tools. That's the way I learned back in the 90's-early 2000's how to record. I've unfortunately as of late been forced to mostly go digital these days due to now living in an apartment, and also from "The Great Covid Gear Purge" that cost me all of my low watt tube amps and a great deal of my pedals and guitars. Amp sims, digital post FX, and IR's aren't what's been the biggest hurdle for me as much as digital sims of Fuzz, Wah, OD, and distortion, and attempting to use analog pedals straight into my interface has also been less than ideal. That said? I have just recently experimented with a quick and inexpensive solution that I think seems to provide that "feel" of boosting a physical amp! I've began incorporating a Vox Valve Energy (Nu-Tube) series Silk Drive preamp w/ a NU-X Fet boost to record direct to amp sims. I've found that by setting the Vox pedal always on to "preamp" mode & clean-ish (just barely clipping), and then the NU-X to it's colored (crunch) boost setting? I can now run both direct into my interface and basically into any amp sim with convincing results! This method also allows me to use all my other typical front of amp analog pedals with glee, although a noise suppressor/gate would be ideal when extreme gain stacking. Wait... Am I rambling on again about gear?! Ha! Yeah, I do that sometimes. Anyway... I hope my comment perhaps helps anyone with a mutual analog past who's now confronting a digital present? Seriously, Thank you soo much for everything you do Tim, and thanks even more for inspiring people like myself to never give up no matter what life throws at you! I'm forever grateful! Cheers & Rock on!
what an awesome share, brother. You are one of the most prolific session player I've had the pleasure of recording. Keep on keeping on and play loud. 🤘🏽🎸✌🏽❤
I've said the same thing for 40 years. A strat, a vintage, 4 hole Marshall screwed up to fill tilt boogie with a fuzz face in front of it, is God-like... CONTROLLING the fuzz faced onslaught of sonic volume IS like controlling a completely separate instrument. Hendrix knew it..
That sounds great! I need to work more on playing with the volume knob down. When I turn it below 10, it always sounds too thin to me. It sounds so good when the pros do it!
20 minutes after I watched this video I bought one on Reverb for a very reasonable price (they are already getting super expensive) and it showed up this Monday morning. It very much is a clean clean OD to Fuzz drive pedal. If you stack it and run it under 4, it's a great boost. Well worth buying. When I say it's Clean, I plugged a microphone in and blew harp for a while with no squealing or harsh transients.
Well, after 45 years of playing an electric guitar... it is NOT the equipment gentlemen, it is the player that counts most. Take the majority of guitar channels and content creators.... it is this pedal, that processor, this note, a showcase of playing skills, the amp.... all while leaving out the basics, like how to write.. song structure... being a prepared for the studio or a performance. Tim is a good player, but all good players are good students.... and none is beyond reproach. Cheers Tim...
I bought one of these back in December! I stack it with the yellow side of a king of tone with a Les Paul (tone knob rolled all the way off). It sounds amazing! Great for slide or if you just want a greasy lead tone!
Great lesson. I have a PRS C24 1991 And the coil split to be honest was better than all the strats I tried back then. ( cbs? ) I mean it did a better "Lenny" than a Strat. My last pedals are gonna be a fuzz and a trem chorus type all in one. This is perfect Tim!
Fuzz is a wonderful experience for the ears, especially in conjunction with some clean passages to really set it off. Like sugar and salt. Great video.
The recently released Dunlop JHMS1 is a great alternative to this pedal in a smaller size (not tone). It has both silicone/germanium options and a buffer switch too. I found that running a comp in front of the fuzz was similar to switching the buffer on.
I bought the Prescription Electronics Experience Fuzz/Octavia pedal in the 90’s… I still can’t find anything to beat it. They’re going for crazy money now of course.
Great Video Tim- super playing as always. I did buy this pedal from this video. Would you be kind enough to share the settings of the DIP switches on the side of the pedal? Thanks for everything you bring to your channel!
Did Not Know. Thanks! Been playing for decades, but always stayed away from strats, just learning now on my new Sire S7v. Great hint about backing off the volume - I rarely do that with humbuckers.
Is that a KingTone fuzz by Jessy Davies?
Exactly, Version two
Hard to get
@@adhaskym.a9536 Not for Tim Pierce. If your name is Tim Pierce, you can get anything.
I bought it anonymously at full price on reverb about six weeks ago... I paid the regular price of 299+ tax
What modern speakers do you recommend for a 4/12 for a good rock tone? Celestion G12M 20 watt heritage, G12H30 heritage 55HZ? Or combo of both of these?
This video is so good, Tim! From the playing to the production to the info and delivery-thanks for the inspiration
hey, that track you wrote is otherworldly for me, and so thanks so much for birthing it into the world !

Your backing track is absolutely amazing. Tim's equally amazing melody playing just makes it Perfection². I'm really looking forward to your album coming out.
Yo it's the top G of the youtube guitar world
Love the backing track! Is there any place I can find it?
I've never seen such tiny volume adjustments shown and with the accompanying changes in tone. THANKS Tim!!!
The way Tim plays so calmly is incredible. I always find myself panicking for time when soloing - trying to fit things in and not miss any beats - and it comes across in my playing. Tim is so effortless. I’ve been playing for over 35 years and still get the panics!

I think you just described Jimmy Page and Joe Perry 🤷🏻♂️
give yourself the space to fuck up, its not a crime, jimi did. and a few hours a day doing solo over tracks or looper helps loads
Man I really did not expect to hear such beautiful clean sounds on a fuzz video. Fantastic playing and gorgeous guitar sounds!
Thank you Tim, for lifting me out of the dark place that I awoke into this morning. Your beautiful playing and sound have made me feel like I am walking on clouds. It's like the sound of Angels soaring. Simply awesome and inspired.
Man, I just love listening to you play! Whatever pedal or amp or guitar it may be, it's your own musicality that makes it all so enjoyable. Cheers!
Thank you so much I really appreciate it
Yeah man that's it!
Sweetness !❤❤❤
No duh
Or if you prefer, no doy
The playing portion at 6:30 and beyond was just superb, and what a great sound!
Yesss! The KingTone MiniFuzz V2 is my go-to fuzz these days. Glad to see it getting some love from a bigger creator.
Tim, your playing is so otherworldly. I appreciate the incredible dexterity. However, your feel, dynamics and multiple musical stories per solo leave me breathless.
I've never really liked the sound of a Fuzz until this video!

What a joy it is to watch you play!! Thank you Tim!!
Those pedals will be flying off the shelf thanks to this demo. Simply put, if you're a Strat guy, you need this pedal.
I have V1. Absolutely love it. Great playing, sir!
Love everything about what I just heard. And that KingTone fuzz has the coolest dial ever on a pedal.
Great stuff, most people use the volume on dime or zero ,really makes a difference in tone and dynamics nursing the volume knob.
I'm not usually a huge fan of fuzz pedals. But that sounds really nice. And I LOVE gear that responds like that to the volume pot setting and pick attack.
I LIKE THE WAY YOU PLAY, MAN.
YOUR 'SONIC SIGNATURES' ARE
ALWAYS UNEXPECTED AND BEAUTIFULLY
CONNECTED...THE AUDIO DNA OF
A PINTO UNICORN.
Great lesson. Agree .. fantastic tone/dynamics/flow especially at 6.33
awesome review! just got this pedal in the mail a few days ago and OMG, by far the best fuzz i've ever used. Extremely responsive and so versatile.
That's the most enjoyable playing I've heard from you. It simultaneously inspires and depresses.
As is quite often the case this is not just a pedal review but a short technique clinic. Thank you for posting this!
Amazing playing Tim. You are indeed a master of guitar, articulation and technique. Get a buzz to pick up my guitar after watching your inspirational vids. Thanks so much from Ian -uk

One of the best videos in this site. Thank you!
that's magical tones. level of guitar remains in track, but the clean low guitar volume sounds amzingly glassy. love it.
Sick tone that low part was sick I see you have such a classic clear approach to your solos that work I will be taking notes good sir cheers!!!!
I could listen to you play all day, Tim. Amazing
I don't know why but you always remind me of Jon Fishman the drummer from the band Phish. Love your dynamics and play style. We're not worthy, we're not worthy!!!!
WOW. You just made me want to throw away all my OD pedals and just use a fuzz, lol. You are so expressive even without the turn of a knob, when you picked lighter the whole thing cleaned up.
Stack’em!
Now I got that "FULL FUZZ" tag in my head for the rest of my life. Cool. Please use it gratuitously everywhere anytime in your future videos!
Extra cool riffs on this one! Thank you for all the incredible content…
Loved your work with Cock Robin…one of the most underrated bands ever….amazing songwriting and vocals. Your guitar work……wonderful

Tim you are the Master of Sound!! I'm not a guitarist and I get the importance of this video. Great presentation.
Tim,
Cool demo! I can’t believe this. I was just going nuts with my fuzz and strat this morning. Also Stacked with an overdrive. Somehow ended up with a super usable sound AND also a David Gilmore lead sound a la time. Amazing.

Somehow I knew that there would be “Comfortably Numb”. Made me smile. I have revision 1 of that pedal in Silicone only. Lots of fun with stacking fuzz pedals too.
Wonderful tones Tim!
Your house rig is absolutely insane man! I love how you are fully analog dedicated into Pro Tools.
That's the way I learned back in the 90's-early 2000's how to record.
I've unfortunately as of late been forced to mostly go digital these days due to now living in an apartment, and also from "The Great Covid Gear Purge" that cost me all of my low watt tube amps and a great deal of my pedals and guitars.
Amp sims, digital post FX, and IR's aren't what's been the biggest hurdle for me as much as digital sims of Fuzz, Wah, OD, and distortion, and attempting to use analog pedals straight into my interface has also been less than ideal.
That said? I have just recently experimented with a quick and inexpensive solution that I think seems to provide that "feel" of boosting a physical amp!
I've began incorporating a Vox Valve Energy (Nu-Tube) series Silk Drive preamp w/ a NU-X Fet boost to record direct to amp sims.
I've found that by setting the Vox pedal always on to "preamp" mode & clean-ish (just barely clipping), and then the NU-X to it's colored (crunch) boost setting?
I can now run both direct into my interface and basically into any amp sim with convincing results!
This method also allows me to use all my other typical front of amp analog pedals with glee, although a noise suppressor/gate would be ideal when extreme gain stacking.
Wait...
Am I rambling on again about gear?! Ha!
Yeah, I do that sometimes. Anyway...
I hope my comment perhaps helps anyone with a mutual analog past who's now confronting a digital present?
Seriously,
Thank you soo much for everything you do Tim, and thanks even more for inspiring people like myself to never give up no matter what life throws at you!
I'm forever grateful!
Cheers &
Rock on!
Just the design alone makes me want one, i love the old school "device" look to it. That dial is awesome
That stacking business you did here.... that was pretty GLORIOUS!!!
Wow. It's amazing how much it cleans up! I would never have thought to use a fuzz like that
I think 7 was the sweet spot on volume nob. Great video Tim.
Tim thankyou for the lesson on the use of the minor pentatonic across the fret board - helps alot
That is my favorite guitar of yours Tim you sound amazing on that. Perfect match you and that guitar, really nice video

Even though the content is great, I come to hear this dude play. So inspirational, Tim. Thanks.
I didn’t even want fuzz until I heard you using it. Quickly changed the way I think about the effect, sir!
That Tele looks amazing. Pedal sounds great in your hands Tim.
Tim, you are a true master.
The Fuzz Face is the best thing to happen to electric guitar since electricity. Best pedal ever made, an instrument unto itself.
I've said the same thing for 40 years.
A strat, a vintage, 4 hole Marshall screwed up to fill tilt boogie with a fuzz face in front of it, is God-like...
CONTROLLING the fuzz faced onslaught of sonic volume IS like controlling a completely separate instrument. Hendrix knew it..

Hope to find some of those solos transcribed in the masterclass in order to look at them more in detail.
Jessie Davies makes great pedals, I have the Kingtone Blues Power. Such a fantastic sound for SRV, Sayce etc
This is why ur working so much as a session musician

This video is the one that finally helped me “get” the magic of fuzz…
Great lesson.
I have a PRS C24 1991 And the coil split to be honest was better than all the strats I tried back then. ( cbs? )
I mean it did a better "Lenny" than a Strat.
My last pedals are gonna be a fuzz and a trem chorus type all in one.
This is perfect Tim!
Love when you play that Strat
