Best demo of the TMP yet. It's refreshing to see someone put thought into getting a good sound rather than complaining about the presets on version 1 software such as Rhett. I told Rhett he could make a Dumble sound bad. A good design allows for brilliance to flourish. The Stratocaster was a good design for Hank Marvin, Dick Dale. But it became apparent the Stratocaster was a great design with Hendrix. The TMP is a great design. Brilliance is flourishing, no manual needed.
Thank you Pete for actually taking the time to show all the things this unit can do.
Thanks!
Pete is such a fantastic player 👏
If only there was a Pete's hands pedal...
Kind of mind blowing that a legendary guitar player took the time to make a very practical and informative demo. Thank you.
Hey thanks! I'm a legendary guitar nerd maybe, ha!
Best Tonemaster Pro review I have seen. I love how you show how you can totally integrate external pedals and amps. The four FX Loops are amazing.
this is one of the most inspired pieces of music I have heard in one of your demos in a bit. I love it!
I love the fact that you do things so well, I can tell when something is still not for me. And when it is it just resonates.
Realizing this is already a 2 month old video (at least 2 years in UA-cam time)...but, I have ot say what an incredible demo. You never fail to disappoint and use things in an interesting yet usable way. Thank you so much.
Wonderful to see some very different perspectives of the capacity of this thing PT - great creativity. 👏🏻
Since years I don't watch this kind of content to figure out, what I desperately need because basically all gear sounds amazing. I watch/listen to hear awesome players playing awesome lines. You are my king in doing that. Best wishes! (to everybody).
I have had this unit since its debut release... I had an extremely positive experience, Fender has released 2 quality firmware updates so far, and both have been jam-packed with very useful and practical updates. I am looking forward to seeing some implementation for basa amplifiers, but for now, the studio preamp and the tube preamp both work wonderfully. The only thing I wish could be extended. Just a little bit longer is the current looper only works for sixty seconds. For most people, that might cut the mustard. But for people who are doing a lot of looping. I still rely on my standalone looper pedal.
One of Pete's best! Methodical, useful and approaching from a positive constructive way that gets some really good info into the hands of us mere mortals that layed down the chunk of change for this modeler. Thanks for showing us different ways to utilize the TMP! Look forward to other ways to use this kit as it continues to get updates. Will definitely watch this over a few times!
As an owner of the Tone Master Pro I was happy to see your amazing demo. When you pulled out the Danelectro 12 String you had my full attention! Happy Holidays Pete!!
Pete Thorn is an absolutely likeable and fantastic musician. Whenever I'm interested in new equipment, the first thing I do is see if there's a review by him!
It's great to listen to - sensationally good demo songs - and you always get really excellent information!
What a fantastic demo. Certainly the most complete, in depth I've seen. Well done, Pete.
Glad you liked it!
The dual chorus effect on the intro is just gorgeous
Killer composition as per usual Pete, great job!! Tones are nice, and it looks like it is fun to program as well. Great graphics.
By far the best video I’ve seen on the TMP! Nice one Pete 🤘
Pete, this video is wonderful, thank you for showing us a set-up I wouldn't have thought of with my TMP. Please post more videos with your TMP rigs, patches, etc. :)
I have been using one the last few months. I really love the Fender Amp sounds in the unit. The effects are also very good. Great playing and demo by you.
Thorough and approaching from different angles than other reviews, on top of the usual multi layering, good stuff
Been waiting for your demo! Going to have to get one now.
Pete really love the intro piece. Your compositions inspire! Tones would great. As I have heard with other demos on the Master Pro, it does clean really good.
Hey PETE! Wonderful composition! Really appreciate all your reviews, and natural proclivity to think outside the box. I think the TMP is going to find its way into my studio after this excellent video. BIG THANKS 😊
What a great demo. Thank you for making this! inspired and inspiring playing, wow!
That editor UI/UX looks very well thought out and beautifully designed. Really impressive, Makes me want to look at the unit even more now.
Thx for this Pete! Great compositions and tones!
Just stellar. Cool song and thank you for showing some creative, alternative ways to use this
Some pretty good geetar faces! 🤘🏼 Excellent, in-depth demo…again👍🏼
Brilliant composition at the beginning Pete, you are one of the most talented guitarists alive, and a real inspiration for my playing.
Great review Pete. I like how you did it a little differently from others and I appreciate the work you put into it. Loved your compositional piece too 👍
I appreciate that!
I bought one and have not used it live yet. What Pete does here is very cool. The new era of modeler/processors is breathtaking. I love showing up to a gig with a pedalboard and two of my Petrucci guitars and be set! Sound guys love not having to battle with the 100+db stage madness. And I love not having twenty failure points! Love where things are headed and Pete is the best out there. 🤟🏼🤟🏼
That Thayil model is beautiful! Great demo as usual. Can't say I'm captivated by the unit, but it's always great to have some competition in the area.
You have to try it. I have had one for a month. It has made me a better guitar player. That's reason enough to get one. Gigs are another reason. Life is short is another reason. It should be on your Bucket List.
I want to see a brown sound shootout between different modelers, including IR-X. With echoplex in the front and the whole 9 yards.
I have the IR-X and the Tonex and they are both pretty awesome. The IR-X just feels great to play (especially with some reverb from my apollo interface). Tonex is awesome and super versatile.
The fractal audio axe fx iii wins that battle. Easily.
Brown Sound shootout....is my mind so deep in the gutter or why do I read this as the punchline of a toilet joke?
THIS.. get er done Pete!
Leon Todd shoots out the JCM 800 models, which is certainly brown sound adjacent.
Fender vs Fractal vs Quad Cortex vs Helix
Super informative, thanks! And sweet playing, I love how musical you are.
Thank u!
That Strat solo at the start was epic. Strat bridge pickups can sound so sweet.
Fantastic demo as usual. Pete!! Thanks !!
Really nice to see a pro champion this unit without the endless comparison to competitors.
Some more vids on interesting ways to use it and perhaps some uploaded presets to tone cloud would be greatly appreciated
Killer demo, Pete! Seems like a powerful unit.
I watched multiple videos on this unit. Your sounds have been the best so far. Look forward to seeing your 2290p video!!
Man you play well. Lovely stuff, and great review.
Hi Pete! You did a great job (as you always do) showing the sounds and the different possible ways you can use this toy but, I know, I've left a similar comment before but I'll say it again: *I love listening and watching you play the guitar!*
Thanks!!
Sick song, SUPER helpful information on the unit, and great tips on being more tasteful with the signal chain. And thanks for showing how capable it is with bass guitar. Very much appreciated, liked and subbed!
Thanks!
I seriously can't wait to see you again at the classic rock show!
That red and black Suhr always makes the killer cuts.
Any company "should" make sure you do the demo. Thanks Pete for showing how new gear can be used to it's fullest. Funny how I see a lot of these on the used market, so soon.
this demo track would sit right at home during a live stadium half time show with the best of them. What a solo 😮
I'm not yet entirely convinced about the Tonemaster series (but I'm getting there!) but I have to say that Pete is great at exploiting the inherent abilities of his gear, and is able to get luscious sounds out of most of them. He has excellent taste.
Thanks Pete... I was waiting for someone to use this with a bass...
Finally! A very great, true application of the unit, much more interesting than a demo of all the bells and tricks it can do without comparing to everything that already exists.... and trash talk if it emulates perfectly trad amps. It just sounds good!!!!!!! Playing, studio skills and recording knowledge are to another level as well, to start with!
Glad you liked it!
Wow! What a great….and so many cool guitars….you got it all Pete……sounds great !!!!
that was one of your best intro tracks ever!!!
What a gift Mr. Thorn is, you are fantastic Pete!
Hey thanks!
Hell yeah man. Just discovered your channel. Nice Guild! I have an old 1994 S-100.
Brilliant playing and tune!
Love the song and chord progression you used on this!yeah I'd be curious to see another video on this for sure and to get your honest opinion about how the actual modeling sounds !
It's how you think it sounds that matters my friend. I think it sounds great personally.
Pete thanks for making the Bass patches.
I'm definitely like the 2,423,984 person to say that watching Pete Thorn gear demos is such a terrible thing to do if you want to not go bankrupt. And also to say that it really is unfair just how frickin great Pete makes everything he touches sound so incredible.
Plus, of course, always seeming to effortlessly come up with original, awesome guitar parts.
Been with ya from the beginning Pete. Like fine wine you just keep getting better and better.
Thank u!
Freaking Great Tune, Pete! You have out done yourself! Great sounds out of that Fender Tone Master! Thanks!
Thanks for listening!!
Thanks for listening!!
Loved that clean chord progression
I wanted to hear surf tones and maybe some Jimi and some early Stones, but I really like what you did and the way you went about it, especially the fuzz and the Destroyer parts. 🤩🤩That is the way to do modeling -break all the rules, do things you almost cannot do with real amps and equipment etc...
Excellent Job Pete,,, as the Song goes ""No One Does It Better "! THORN! PETE THORN!! Sounded Awesome and always inventive , Thanks PETE sounds like a great grab and go Box 🤘🎸🤠
Great video Pete. Been thinking about picking up this unit, glad I ran across your demo. Are you going to review the powered cab too?
We're so lucky to have all that so readily accessible. What a great time to be a musician. I have the helix rack and the tonemaster pro and I am finally happy.. I am using the Darkglass ADAM for bass though... If TMP adds proper bass utility I'll maybe sell that puppy
Thanks for this very valuable presentation!
Showing how to set up and run a volve amp with 4CM is great thanks 👍
Finally a review of this unit from someone I trust 100%
Pete makes everything sound great. Personally I’m still enjoying my FM9.
I like the high effort you put into your demos. The Tonemaster Pro seems like a really strong entry into the high end floor amp modeling field and able to compete with the likes of the Helix and Boss GT-1000.
Thank you! This one did take quite a bit of time!
Your playing keeps getting tastier, great stuff.
That box seems more complicated than my real wdw rig. Guess I'm an old dog😜
That opening jam was sick!
In isolation the acoustic sounds a bit too bright but that's ok because when you add all the other instruments it sits perfectly in the mix. Great job 👍
heres the review i was waiting for
Epic intro jam!
Holy Cow that Guild electric is amazing!!! Your getting great sounds from that Tone Master man!!! I just picked up a good old Boss GT3 on the cheap ( 80$ !) to add to my live gig pedal board setup. I use manual mode to just add 6 xtra pedals to my arsenal. It actually sounds really good man. The noise reduction is invisible!! Got an NOBELS ODR 1 to boost my solos but now i just leave it on cause it sounds so good! Using a Fender Highway One HSS ( Actually a Burstbucker in the bridge) Obviously the Tone Master kills thr GT3 hahah!!! Cheers from Montreal!
Thanks 🙏🏻 Pete !!!! So So nice 👍 🎸🎸🎸
I really like the demo, kinda makes me want to get one. But then every time you demo something I want to go out and buy it. I'm a huge fan and I'm sure your friend EVH was too.
Very cool, demo Pete
Thanks for the great review Pete. I just got mine and can’t put it away. People hating on the TMP platform 1) won’t make any more money giggin’ 🤣 and 2) reveal more about their bias (pun intended), than about the gear itself. I’ve got 3 real world gig loadouts already and have only had the TMP for a week! Rock on!
Very nice Pete. That Guild is sweet! Sounds great.
That intro was dope!
Great playing!!!!!
Great video Pete. I got to ask you, do you think the unit sounds good enough for touring?
What an awesome video showcasing the Tone Master Pro. You should run the marketing department at Fender. This is the first video that has me considering purchasing one.
Any chance you could do a demo on setting up a dry /wet set up using 2 amps ..?
Great job. Thank you!
Fantastic Pete I brought one of these and really like it but this is a refreshing take on this pedal very well thought out and done.i must also say I'm a little tired of some of the self professed experts on you tube .... but like you there are the ones who really do it well and demo so we'll as there quality players thank you Pete
Thank u!
The IR trick on the acoustic works great. I found out that it also works great on my Marshall It gives a really nice light reverb type ambience and a bit of faux 4x12 to my single 12 cab.
He used an IR of an acoustic guitar overlayed on his bridge saddle acoustic guitar pickup. Is that what you did? If you use guitar speaker IR's with a real guitar speaker you are doubling the speaker/cab resonance effects and the LP filter slope. Not necessarily a bad practice, but may get a bit muddy.
A close & neutral sounding mic'd IR with different resonance peaks and a higher roll-off freq than your real speaker might be nice. Something like a G1230-55Hz or EVM12L type or even a JBL D120 or K120 close mic'd with an SM81, U67 or other such accurate/neutral mic with a low proximity effect would be worth trying. Ribbon mic's have a very strong proximity effect. The low end can be very boosted depending on the IR. You can check the freq response of IR's with white noise and a freq analyzer. A 3~6dB bass proximity boost on a 1x12 cab IR will give your 1x12 cab a 4x12 sound, but any bass boost on a 4x12 cab IR will overdo it.
It’s hard to tell if I’d like it, because Pete makes everything sound good. 🤪🤘
I keep saying, the gear isn't what is important....the playing is. Most people don't obsess over gear the way us guitar players do. They do care about crappy playing.
Hi Pete. Can you explain the hook up and how to set the preset using the amp control? Thanks
Plot twist: Pete makes everything sound amazing because he’s amazing haha. Great tones as always brother 🤘🤘
Thanks!
This is the first time I bought a product before Pete demo'd it. I agree that you HAVE to edit the presets a lot or create your own. It's not plug and play, if you want to get any really cool sounds out of the TMP. But no modeling unit I've used has been any different, as far as the need for serious tweaking goes. Thanks PETE!
Yeah, I'm not a big fan of presets usually! I want to get in there and make my own usually
@Pete ... once again a killer tune that could be an LP (just say'n) .... record this stuff for hours, we'd all buy it - fantastic review sir!
this was awesone thx P
Such a nice guitar solo. Very soulful and badass
Thanks!!!
What?! What a great solo.
Pete do you think the Tonemaster Pro sounds good as your Quad Cortex?
@Pete thorn I accidentally purchased a Marshall with a European power cable and voltage. Would you recommend plugging a voltage converter of some kind to the power cable? Is there one you recommend? Or should I just replace the amp with an American model?
That was the most comprehensive demo I've seen yet, the kitchen sink demo.
Nice! Great review.
Thanks!
