The BEST Guitar Pedal Nobody Talks About
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 бер 2020
- When the Strymon Deco first came out a few years ago I didnt really know who or what it was for. Since then this pedal has flown under the radar of most guitar players out there, but after owning one for a year now I can say I think this is one of the BEST guitar effects pedals that nobody talks about.

Stereo in ???
I came to ask how you fit the deco into the signal chain you used in this video, indeed, what else was in your signal chain.
Question still stands but this course seems like the perfect course for me, especially the delay part.
Would you do a second course on recording?
the link seems to be broken
Any thoughts on the Deco V2? Also while Neunaber gets lots of love for their reverbs, their Neuron Gain Intelligence pedal is a sleeper that nobody talks about. It is my always on preamp pedal.
That intro jam
Edit: I just bought a Strymon deco
We should link ours together via the interwebs, and let the comedy ensue.
Sammy G!!! What's up bro?!?!
Deco is dope...
@@jimthecraftyguitarist878 indeed it is. Bought one two weeks ago, so versatile. The tape saturation is such a great drive let alone the other half of the pedal
These opening tracks just keep getting better and better man! Keep the quality coming, here and with the podcast because I’m loving it!
The intro would fit perfectly in a Tarantino movie. :)
God that's exactly what I thought!
TimMer1981 - couldn’t agree more
It reminded me of big little lies
I thought Tarantino ... or ... a Scorsese flick where the main character is just wrecking people in a dive bar in NYC
Yo same!!! I can see Uma Thurman walking through the desert to Mivhael Madsden's trailer. Btw the people in this comment chain are my people.
Your color correcting, audio, TONE, and everything else is just perfect... thank you for being awesome!
Rhett: Your work just keeps getting better and better man - it's no wonder you're growth has been nothing short of phenomenal but I'm proud to say I've been watching you since nearly your start. So great to see your development on the tube. And I've said it before, but I'll say it again - there is something so wonderful about your on-camera delivery and demeanor that speaks to people. While full of information, you never get bogged down by specs but rather are able to stay focused on the key aspects you want to highlight for whatever it is you're talking about. Your delivery is professional, smooth but somehow also very "real" and sincere and never contrived. Honestly, that's pretty rare on youtube gear channels but the ones that do manage that combination are the ones that succeed. Keep it up man - you know you're doing something right when folks like Pete Thorn takes inspiration from your tour Vlogs and starts doing those kinds of things as well. :) Cheers brotha and stay safe....
I'm not sure that I could pay you a higher compliment than to tell you that I bought the pedal 5 minutes after I watched this video. Just discovered your channel, and in my opinion, you're one of the best music related content creators on UA-cam. Beautifully shot and edited, and the content is super useful and expertly delivered. Thank you and Bravo!
...by far, the best demo of the Strymon Deco on UA-cam - excellent job describing and demo-ing each feature:)
Nice Rhett!!!
That intro oughtta get a Grammy.
Also without a doubt, that ring on your right hand has improved your playing.
Better than what wins at the Grammy's at the moment
@@monstercrx facts
Rhett, I’ve been watching your videos for quite awhile and I thoroughly enjoy them.
But I gotta say aft watching this, your passion and enthusiasm for all things guitar is exceptionally refreshing and inspiring. You’re an awesome person 👍🏼👏🏼👏🏼
This is exactly what I've been looking for & this review has been invaluable.. I'm a huge fan of your music & all your reviews Rhett.. so thank you for your outstanding review & demonstration my brother..
Btw, that “squeaking” sound that happens when you start your 2 track is not because of the machine but rather the tape. It has too much humidity. Ampex was notorious for this. Heat you tape in an oven 100deg for at least 4 to 8 hours.
Keep your tape in a box in a dry place when not in use. Thx
I feel like this may cause the JHS effect on reverb.
All the used ones on Reverb are gone, except one.
I got mine from Reverb
Excuse my ignorance but what is the JHS effect? I’m really familiar with the channel and love that he covers other pedals, but did that cause/change something? Thanks- asking as a career guitar player
Mike Sherrard Dude shows something off, everybody suddenly wants it, prices go up.
@@mikesherrard8871 Whenever Josh demos an awesome pedal, they sell out everywhere.
Consider making an EP with these tracks.
I would buy it.
It sounds amazing.
I’ve watched this 3 or 4 times now. Every time I’m reminded how inspiring the pedal can be. I can’t help but think this also helped change the trajectory of the deco.
Everyone been sleeping on this guy for years. I just turn my tele into this guy into my deluxe reverb. It’s magic.
Mark A Ochoa I recently had a rehearsal, Jazzmaster > Deco > Princeton... it was awesome.
That sounds sick
GOD BLESS YOU. The Deco is wildly underrated. I bought one years ago and it has been my desert island pedal ever since.
Great man, love your channel. Each time you are very informative, with no excessive bla-bla and giving a lot to guitar society. Thanks for this.
killer editing, shots, important information and most importantly great music... your videos should be in a museum.
Your intro song sounded so good I moved from my iPhone speakers to my studio monitors for a better listen! Great content as always!
I bought this literally the day it came out. I lost it in a fire and rebought it as soon as I could. It is sooo amazing
I feel like your playing style is actually perfect for this type of effect! Amazing playing 👍
Killer intro Rhett, I just ordered the Strymon Deco from Sweet water, can’t wait to start incorporating it into my playing!
I bought a Deco a while back but ended up returning it. I think you make a great point that it probably makes more sense as a studio tool than something that needs to live on your gig board. Now I need to consider buying it all over again.
Deco is a great pedal that seems to fly under the radar for sure. The slap back on solos is great. Totally agree with Rhett on this.
my fave intro jam/short film of yours so far!! really great vibes!!
I was really hoping this was going to be the pedal. This is my favorite pedal I’ve ever owned. I just wrote a long comment on a Strymon UA-cam video.
“I own too many pedals. But if I could own only one, it would be this one. It can define your tone and style, give you overdrive, modulation, and echo. And the wobble knob is so cool. I never want to turn it off. “ I’ve never commented on your videos but I watch all of them. Keep up the great work. I love your playing and your UA-cam channel is great also.
Agreed!!! The saturator side is an always on pedal for me, and the double tracker side is just widening-heaven.
Rhett... The opening song was Killer! Im 2 years into guitar. Hoping to get to that tone control someday. Im a bit frustrated that im not there yet. I know it takes time. Its hard to not forget its about the journey. Cheers.
I totally appreciate where you're coming from. once you can play a couple riffs and phrases that sound pleasing to your ears, that's the time to start delving into tonal shaping and finding your sound, I think. If you haven't already, maybe get a looper pedal.... Record a phrase or riff that you really like and loop it over and over. While it's looping, start to experiment with each of the knobs, finding the sweet spot, sometimes you'll have several, depending on what kind of pedal it is and what the parameter is you're affecting. That's a good way to start, and then gain as much knowledge as you can about what's actually happening when you twist each one of those knobs by either watching UA-cam videos or talking to someone in the know. Just some tips that I gleaned by messing around with all of this stuff for a couple decades and going to school for audio engineering. I'm free to answer questions occasionally, if you like, you can make a comment and I'll comment back, if I see it. Cheers!
Josh Freeman brother the fun is the journey not getting cause no one really gets there, and do we really want to?
Be sure to pay attention to the “feel” and worry more about clean changes rather than speed etc. You sound like you’re on the right track so just keep it up! 👍🏼🎸
@@GimmeJimmy23 that's great advice, I've ibeen playing off and on close to 30 years and It blows my mind what I don't know or didn't think of myself lol. some of you guys are really generous in sharing your knowledge/experience and that is very valuable = for helping others and asking nothing in return you truly rock!
Excellent demo and fantastic tones. Great discussion Rhett. Love it.
every time you release a video i honestly will listen to the intro track a good 5 times before watching the actual video. Honestly inspiring music mate. keep doing doing what your doing.
Great sound and playing! Eric Haugen also makes good use of the Deco and gets these fantastic old school sound in his demos/lessons. I got myself a Keeley 30ms as a slightly cheaper alternative, which I can highly recommend. Haven’t tried the Deco myself though..
You should put out an album of all these opening jams! I can't tell you how much I dig listening to them! Pleeeease 😁
All the explanations & backstories are what make you definitely one of, or the best, youtube music channels!
I always learn something.
I was mesmerized the instant I heard this pedal! A great video too, thanks for sharing 🤘
When i saw the title, I had a feeling it'd be a Strymon 🤘
My sleeper guitar pedal is the EarthQuaker Devices Rainbow Machine. It's gotten a reputation as being "the sparkle box" where you push a button and magical unicorns come out. But if you take the time to tweak its settings just right, it can make a fantastic chorus, slapback echo, harmonizer, and even an ambient effect. It's kind of a "secret weapon." You see it on a lot of people's walls in their videos, but most people don't talk about it.
You hit the nail on the head with the mad scientist approach on products. Thank you for sharing.
I didn’t expect to see a Strymon pedal nor the Decco in particular but all fair points and definitely some nice vibe you captured here. Enjoyed the video as usual.
That intro was amazing
Best tone pedal I've heard and can't see to find. Talent Pedal.
I just got back from a stressful night at work and i had to hear that intro song again... Had it in my mind all day. It's so good!! Gonna help us go through those tough pandemic times. It just gives me peace of mind and a feeling of invincibility.
Amazing pedal, great saturation effect and the double tracking effect is gorgeous just like they used to do it in the old days.
I own a Deco. Love that thaaaaang. Picked one up secondhand because the dude “didn’t get it” it’s an always on effect on my board. That left hand side is the best! I’m also the only guitarist in my group so I double track all the dayum time. Love ya Rhett!
Just picked up a “used “ Deco from Sweetwater. Doesn’t look like it was ever really used. So far I really like what this thing can do. I have a Volante and a Timeline, and a Mobius none of which do double tracking. I like this Deco for its simplicity.
That opening track just motivated me. Wow! I’m pretty sure as a singer/guitar player I could find a lot of use for this pedal. Thanks Rhett!
Love that trem picking @1:56. Rarely get an urge for these spacey effects unless I'm in recording mode but sometimes late at night these can really pull you in for an hour or two
And it is always a pleasure to watch to learn about these underrated brands and gears that can surely inspire a player! I always appreciate these kinds of videos man, keep it up!
Love the Strymon Deco.
It’s my favourite pedal and has been since I got it, great overdrive sounds, amazing delay and chorus with the best flanger I own and I’ve got the old school black label boss BF-2 but don’t really use it since I got the Deco.
And if you’ve got a fuzz pedal then you’ve got all you need to play Cherub Rock by Smashing Pumpkins.
I’m sure we don’t hang in the same groups but I’ve been hearing all about this pedal. People are loving this.
I’ve recently rediscovered my old Ibanez SD9. Everyone usually talks about the Tube Screamer but the SD9 has a lot to offer. Thanks for a great video. 👍
Rhett “I only have cool guitars” Shull
Man that opening track sounded like an Interpol song it was awesome.
Seriously you need to release this intro as a standalone track. freaking amazing, loved it!!!
I am so happy that I bought my Deco before this video was published. I love it too. Love the intro Rhett... Stay safe and healthy.
I think the Lovepedal Kalamazoo is a total sleeper pedal. I've owned that pedal for years and put that pedal against so many overdrive pedals, and it blows everything away. I never hear anybody talking about that pedal.
I LOVE my Deco! I have recorded every kind of instrument I have, with it (including my Theremin).
The through zero flanging on drums, sounds incredible!
Through zero flanging is the thing that makes me wanna buy this... Fills and solos through it sound amazing!
Through zero flanging is why I bought it. Love it for everything it does. Spectacular in stereo.
@Rhett Shull, all the modulation effects possible with the Deco, are also possible spliting the signal chain and running the signal straight on one side and with a delay of any type on the other, provided it can do very short delays and also have a mix/effect level control that allows to have just the wet signal and and a feedback control that alows for single or at most 2-3 repetitions, the time range for each effect is more or less lile this:
Phaser: 6-12 ms
Flanger: 12-20 ms
Automatic Double Tracker: 20-35 ms
Bellow 6ms you won't perceive any alteration on the signal because it would be too fast for our ears to pick, and above 35 ms a distinct echo becomes noticeable, and we are in the slapback delay territory. If you put a pitch vibrato before the delay in its side of the path, and set the delay time to ADT, then you have a chorus.
For more extreme effects just run more delays on the chain, but the subsequent delays after the first should have the mix at 50%.
Also if you're running delay times above 35 ms (echo), the clarity of the delay produced is increased, because you have more control over the amount of dry and wet signals than the effect level ou mix knob of a delay pedal.
Another useful side effect of this setup is that you can either run it in stereo to have a more spatial effect, or you can joing both signals after the delay and have a mono effect.
As of pedals that were undsrated at the time, the whole Lovetone line was more or less like that, then folks like Kirk Hammett, Ed O'Brien, Johny Greenwood, the Edge, Steohen Malkmus, and other famous guys started to buy them and sudenly there was a 3 years waiting list to get a pedal until Vlad Naslas and Daniel Coggins decided to close the shop in 2001.
That intro 🔥
I honestly believe the Deco and the JHS Color Box is the perfect combo for recording
I’ve seen a couple of demos of the color box and I still don’t really understand what it does.
Totally agree
Yeet Skeet Productions totally agree. Both the Deco and Colour Box are superb. If I had to choose one I’d take the Deco although the Colour box is more versatile
@@allenmitchell09 It's supposed to emulate the gain, saturation, and EQ's of putting your guitar strait into a mixing board, rather than mic-ing up an amp. Think of Led Zeppelin's black dog, how jimmy plugged in his guitar strait into the mixing board. Hope this helped : )
@@creepycarol7528 jimmy plugged his guitar into two compressors
You as ever have hit the nail on the head - one of my other fave guitarists on YT from NC Eric Haugen is a big Deco user.. it adds the fairy dust.. I think Strymon kit is the bees knees..
Awesome intro Rhett and an excellent topic. I'd love to see more of these.
Dude, you have the absolute best taste in guitar aesthetics. Every single guitar that I see you using is beautiful!
Fuchs Audio Tech Amps! freakin' killer tone, Andy Fuchs is an amp making genius.
Rhett... Why did you have to go so hard on that opening track??? Like god DAMN bro!!!!
I bet whoever set you on the guitar pathway hears this and is totally proud. A great talent and one of my fav YTbers on guitar gear, tone and styles...
Sold! This strymon pedal always flew under my radar.. until now. I really thing the double tracking with my Volante would sound incredible. Thank Rhett
I’d love to see a feature on Gibson Nighthawks, the mid 90s “strat killer”. I’ve owned two and they’re just the most versatile guitars I’ve ever owned. Not hugely popular as they’ve been discontinued several times but their owners love them.
I own one! Amazing guitar
The Biyang RV-10 Tri-reverb is my secret weapon. $60 right now on Reverb, some of the best sounds I've got from any pedal. I've kept this over the Blue Sky, RV-5, DBA Sunshine reverb and many other high priced reverbs. Stereo as well, I cannot recommend this thing enough.
Same! Outlived a Big Sky, Empress Reverb and the new Boss one. But man... are those graphics ugly!
same here
. . . with stolen algorithms?
What makes it better than other reverbs?
@@255george algorithms? It's an all analog circuit.
Great video. I have had the Deco on my board for over 4 years, and after downsizing my board several times, it's still on there. I use it as a foundation overdrive, and modulation (flange). I use a small 18W Marshall combo, so have a great base tone, and use the Deco to sweeten the drive, and use for flange/chorus when that's needed. Its pricey, but as you say it's like buying a drive and a modulation pedal. Keep up the great content!
Rhett cudos to you for some truly cinematic editing in the opening bit. Legit felt like I was watching a professionally shot music documentary 😎🤘🏼 keep on keepin on
*favorite piece of sleeper gear: Analogman DD-5 (long dash) modified with a hi-cut and dry cut for the reverse setting (but don’t tell anyone ;)
Opening track: If Neil Young & Crazy Horse decided not to be sloppy.
Keni Miller so funny, I was listening to this thinking “what does this remind me of?” Read this comment night at this moment. You’re exactly correct
@@zentime8047 Michael Kiwanuka - "Cold Little Heart"
iused2BAfireman I was thinking Love and Hate.
their sloppiness makes their whole music. i wouldn't change a thing about this honestly
@@crifox16 Yeah I love that lazy kinda sound. It just... its what that specific music is supposed to be. Stoned, relaxed, a bit noisy, heavy even, but aint there to throw a downer on your vibe.
Sleeper pedal is definitely the Electro-harmonix Canyon delay/looper. Very versatile and affordable.
Rhett awesome intro man, love your channel, cheers from Brazil!
That intro of yours was awesome! Great vidio. I must admit I have had a good experience of Strymon so far.
Sleeper gear: without a single doubt the Laney Lionheart L5-t112 amp. Soooo underrated and nobody talks about it. Sounds awesome.
I have a sleeper amp too (the AMT Stonehead 50 - a 500 bucks, 50-watt,4-channel high gain monster with a buffered fx loop and plenty of settings) and I just love when people go "what the actual hell is that thing and why does it sound so good ?"
I have the L5 studio head. Love it!
I have it. The old version with the spring reverb. But speaking of Laney, the most underrated pedal in my book is the Steelpark. Tested it against the Keeley Oxblood, MXR Sugar Drive and Lovepedal Valve Reamer and they all sounded like a joke compared to the Steelpark; like when you don't even bother to fiddle with the controls because you hear immediately that they don't play in that league.
Amazing opening! Make that a song
Man. Rhett. Thanks for pulling us all away from the mayhem for 15 minutes. Greetings from Baltimore. Stay safe and healthy bud. I really look forward to your content and feel ever more urged to say thank you to the things I’m grateful for. So thank you! -Leo
Mad professor Kosmos! a beautiful hold/freeze function on the room setting
The opening song has a Black Keys vibe. Great stuff man!
the reason it is called a flanger is that the recording engineer would place their finger/thumb on the flange of the reel. also, does Strymon make anything that doesnt sound great?
I thought the first engineer that did it was named Jimmy Flange
My empty wallet sounds sad each time Strymon is mentioned.
@@thedevilsadvocate5210 Flanger. He was French.
Never heard of that pedal before. Definitely gonna look into it now. Love the sounds you got outta it.
That intro song was excellent. I just ordered that Eastwood Warren Ellis short scale bass in cream instead of black. It sounded great in your mix. I can’t wait for it to arrive for my 40th bday. Thanks for the cool video!
I was waiting and waiting to the point where I shouted "WHERE IS THE GEAR TALK INTRO!" and then it was there and I applauded lol
i was waiting for him to pull out a sonic maximizer was holding my breath for it thought we was about to get an early april fools
The Deco seems like an awesome pedal. My other favorite UA-cam guitar teacher, Eric Haugen, uses one quite a bit, with excellent results, too.
My pick for Best Guitar Pedal No One Talks About is the Blackout Effectors (sadly defunct boutique maker) Mantra OD. It feels like it’s the secret sauce in my tone, in large part to the Baxandall EQ that sounds awesome on any setting (no muffled lows or shrill highs). From Andy’s ProGuitarShop demo:
“The Blackout Effectors Mantra is capable of bringing together two worlds of overdrive. This unique pedal can provide vintage overdrive as well as incredibly dirty and crusty distortion tones. With a whole lot of crunch and thunder on tap, the Blackout Effectors Mantra is comfortable in both domains of overdrive. The secret to the Mantra is that is utilizes an amp-like circuit that has multiple cascaded MOSFET and JFET gain stages. It is handmade with discrete components and no diode clipping. This design creates a completely organic and touch sensitive overdrive that also provides deep and resonant tone when you clean up with your guitars volume knob. Not only will the Mantra meld well with single coils or humbuckers, it will equally be at home with Fender or Marshall voiced amplifiers due to its Baxandall-style EQ. With this feature, both Treble and Bass controls interact dynamically with each other for scooped mids or mid-emphasized crunch.”
A Baxandall tone stack really serves a drive pedal. Mine is the Rook from MojoHandFX. It's the foundation of my tone. 🙂
Had my Deco for a year now and it's pretty much an always on pedal. I added an el capistan to cover delay. I recorded for years to 2" 24 or 16 and think it does a great job of creating that sound. I was pleased to see how your using it. Nice video Rhett.
Great episode man.. was slow to click because the title put me off for whatever reason but great review, great sounds and reminded of the power of stereo doubling and double tracking in your mixes.
Dude I think your tape machine is in dire need of some lubrication
ᛞᛖᚾᚾᛁᛋ ᛏᚱᛟᚹᚨᛏᛟ tape baking fixes that
Had a Teac 4 track reel to reel yrs ago....
At one point I was recording something and my drummer walked in and said “Hey”!
That “Hey” had me turning my head and looking over my shoulder for years since that day.
Nothing... sounds like tape. Wish I still had it.
Be well, Rett.
I had a beautiful tape 4 track tascam reel, that I used extensively. Our drummer did something far more insane. Was finally recording my band with it, and while partying after finally getting all the tracks down our drummer came in tripping on acid and decided to create a "music ball" by pulling all the tape off the reels and rolling it into a ball. Then he unscrewed the back off it and tried to "fix" the problem by installing a "psychic antenae", and pulled the weed plant growing out back yard and a bunch of dirt and put it into the back and screwed the back plate back on, thus destroying the machine. The band was broken up by the time that night was over. Man the 90s was a fun time to be alive, but occasionally utterly confusing lol. A decade and a half later I brought an 8 track tascam reel to reel , but ended up selling it again because honestly the pro tools setup just worked so much easier. Kinda regret it now, Tape for all its hassles sounds amazing.
Definitely continue the sleeper series. It’s always great to encounter new gear you wouldn’t otherwise find. 100%.
That opening track was the best thing I heard you play, 10 out of 10 for me! WOW!
What is the new bass in the intro??
I thought you were going to say JHS Colorbox.
R.J. Ronquillo dude! You kill on guitar! Love your vids!
Nah, there's a fair amount of people who rave about it. No offense to the Colorbox or yourself. Both are great.👌
Great video! Strymon continues to amaze me. I’m realizing they make nothing that isn’t spectacular. I just picked up a “Dig” from them because after I tried it out, I couldn’t get over how much I liked the user experience. Great knob layout, so easy to use and get creative with. What a great brand!
The DIg is the pedal I want most by them. Just has amazing character and possibilities.
wow -- glad you highlighted this pedal!
I thought DECO was well known, because they always go almost instantly when someone is selling them where I live. Have been thinking about buying one for years, but got so much stuff to get... It's really great with synths too and youtube is full of great demos!
Henri the Horse they are super well known and talked about everywhere
Don’t laugh, but I think the Boss Ds-1x is a sleeper, I use it with a spark booster in the front and an Mxr eq after.
Did you see this week’s That Pedal Show episode? All on the DS-1
@@tompoynton
I did, I never really got into the original ds-1 but the ds1-x is pretty cool, but the original is so cheap I might pick one up.
Love the bass work in these videos! Rhett's a talented spaghetti western master!
Used to put this last on my board and just leave it on. The tape compression and subtle distortion glued all the more digital sounding (verbs, delays) effects together really nicely. Kinda thought of it as a lite bus comp for my guitar signal. Loved it. Miss it. Now I’m gonna cry. Lol
