I so value great brick and mortar stores, from the personal connection to the opportunity to try a number of products to great service to just supporting the local economy, that I'll give them my custom whenever possible.
In my view, the shift of business from local merchants to indifferent online conglomerates is among the many dreadful consequences of all the pandemic responses that I'm happy to do my bit pushing back on.
The 2 thinline variant :
69: normal tele pickups configuration
72: 2 wide range humbuckers
having matt and ben play you both , the movie would be good tone hunting
Change is welcomed. I dedicate a different electric guitar to my weekly Worship Team commitment, monthly. I also use a multi-effects pedal in lieu of my pedal board. I am required to use an "in ears" system each week. Each guitar change initiates a series of reviews of settings to achieve an optimized character for each weekly performance. Each weekly practice afford the opportunity to review settings of the dedicated "WT" patch while I listen to the performance of other members (who enjoy at least a partial rotation). Then, on Sunday morning we have a rehearsal, at which point I commit to the "weekly" improvements. The "secular" band I'm in allows me to use a tube amp and not "in ears". That ensemble is supported by at least three "patches" of the multi-effects unit and 339 guitar. I use what I've learned from each "rig" to inform settings choices influenced by both other "rigs" and "at home" practice. I, "easily", spend more time on these efforts than on developing my parts (which remain as "live" as possible). The goal is always to find settings which minimize the need for "tweaks" at a "gig". I need to "just play" when I play. My perception of "my tone" is forever improving, to the point that I am ensured to need to revisit settings regularly. Each "system" will always include me as both a component and master of any change "required" and gear component change must be integrated "freshly" to suit ever improving tweaks (which should be accepted as needing to be endless). This "need" ends only if I "give up". I "keep going".
It always amazes me to remember that Adrian Belew was in Zappa's band, Bowie's band, the Talking Heads, and King Crimson within 5 years
@That Pedal Show if you want to do a baritone show Ariel Posen is touring later in the year. Mr Baritone!
Dang, just missed you guys by a gnat’s again. Watching now as I make the kid’s brekkie. Cheers from Blue Mtns, Oz!
I started getting buzz and humm and radio frequencies… I have GigRig power and so forth, so I was getting angry. Discovered the problem was the hex nuts on my tuner pedal and on the front of my quartermaster. CHECK THE NUTS!
My 15 watt tube amp is to the 1 watt setting and volume at 3. It produces 72db in a 10ft x 11ft rectangular room. Using those dimensions (admitting that watts vary) the relationship of wattage to room volume is then 1 watt to 110 sq. ft. with an 8 ft. ceiling height the cu. ft. is 880. But, I assume the upscaling is NOT linear! Also, I am only 5 ft. from the amp in that small room. In a larger room I prefer to be at least 10ft away from the speaker. at that distance the dB may increase to 80+. If I leave the amp setting the same except for the power let out at 15 watts, I need a volume scale factor per watt to size a larger room. I've played venues easily as large as my 'open' 20 ft. x 25 ft. by 9-16 ft. vaulted ceiling with the amp on 15 watt mode and set on a volume of 5-6. I cannot play louder than horns and drums (without microphones). An amp with about15 watts would seem to be the best power to apply to a small venue. I think I've just answered my own question!
Had the pleasure of seeing Andy Timmons at the Guitar Sanctuary in McKinney TX a couple weeks ago … fantastic!
I'm just watching the attack discussion, and you've cleared a few things up for me, in particular the effect of the guitar and attachments. That actually never occurred to me. Very informative, keep up the great work.
With tracking monitors you are listening to and for sounds before they become music. The Neve guys have to listen thru the best monitos available to check that the eqiipment they make doesn't produce unwanted artifacts. God bless them .
“You said around ready before tennish😂😂”
I massively love Talking Heads -- Glad you got around to them 🤣
there was a great moment of radio this morning on Virgin
Chris Evans had Mark Knopfler on
He told a story about when he was changing changing strings back stage one day
Talking heads were there and as they pased asked "Hey whatcha doing there?"
Aparently he was the guy to show them all how to change stings for the first time in Shefield -- back in the day --- well made me chuckle
Adrian Belew played the Berkeley Square when they were touring Twang Bar King, and they had dinner on the Rider. They were quite surprised by the Table Cloths and the full Dinner cooked up by our Head Chef Lucien, he said that they usually just hoped for a bucket of Kentucky Fried Chicken as best possibility. And he said that my Backstage was cleaner than his house. 😉
Hello Legg-ends ! Favorite content on the TUBE! VCQ ROCKS !
Just bought my ticket for TPS band at Cavern Club Liverpool. Coming all the way from Leeds and cannot wait to meet you guys. 👍
Awesome! See you there Kyle!
Couldn’t catch the show live today, but it was great seeing you both back in action!
27:19 As soon as I get in a band the first thing I ask is “Ok. Who else can sing.? Cuz I don’t wanna do it all the time 😂.” And I’m the singer.
“YOU sing it!” 😂

The AVII line is nitro and while people do moan about the “poly undercoat” (I’m pretty sure it’s actually just a grain filler) the nitro is extremely thin. Mine has play wear at the arm bevel from just under a year of heavy play. I love that guitar. Custom Shop killer. At least mine is. It’s basically everything I would have spec’d out with the Custom Shop in a few years for my 50th but I got my guitar cheaper and sooner! I must admit that, despite my love for those degaussed vintage style pups, I’m thinking about swapping the neck out with a TX special for that spank. 😂
Sorry I missed live chatter. In the Attack discussion, a critical part to recognize is that you are hearing the Ratio of transient to tailing tone. So enhancing the trailing tone can make it seem like you have less attack with the exact same transient. Have a play with the Eventide Split EQ which separates transient and tonal to understand that
In the attack discussion you could also have mentioned your direct experience with a profound example of the factors in attack - Dan's tele neck pickup rewind with Matt at Monty's. The only change was the pickup. Yet the guitar went from having a lacking attack to having a very nice attack. Which can only mean that the high attack frequencies were there in the strings all along. It only needed the right pickup to transduce them. Direct measurement of string vibrations do show that guitar strings contain much higher freqeuncy content than almost any pickup can see. The highest frequencies are very short lasting though, simply due to the physics of maintaining a high frequency vibration in a stiff string (harder for high frequencies) - which is why those very high frequencies are limited to the attack phase.
In summary, your experience shows that the heard attack is very heavily influenced by the pickup.
The differences between the acoustic sound of the SGs led to a raft of speculations, with not a lot of objective evidence to support them. The subtractive effect of various structures that directly contact the strings are the logical candidates. Things like cavites do become important in the acoustic sound waves from semi- and hollow-body guitar guitars. Whether the pickup cavity is enough to do that in the HB SG is doubtful. Determining if those acoustic differences are still present in the pickup output would be interesting, but confounded by their different pickups. Things like cavities or the top surface reflections of acoustic sound waves from the strings would not be likely to influence the pickup output. In which case some peoples' attaching great significance to the acoustic sound would be questionable.
1.20.45: ref the fuzz thing - agree with both of you in terms of getting the fuzz thing from other sources for live use (Butter Machine does the SD9/fuzz thing for me on one board). In addition to the Warthog, I’d mention the Cornerstone Nero: you can dial in how much fuzz you want with the drive circuit. I’m using it for a rock sound as well as the singing leads, and it cleans up nicely.
Thanks guy...enjoyed that one....
Add two amps 5 pedals and a ABY box pedal for feedback on setup using a photo,
SM58, SM57, and SM11 are all the same cartridge, but the housing changes the acoustic performance. I really dig using the SM11 resting against the inside of a kick drum head, or the superfluous inside of the combo tone because it is omnidirectional and does not have the proximity effect of the other mics. Not sure about recording, probably too sloppy for that.
The SM11 has an overall smaller diameter (9/16") than the SM57 and SM58 diaphragms (29/32"), so they cannot be the same. The diaphragms for the latter two are too big to fit an SM 11 cartridge.
It may be correct that SM57 and 58 use the same diaphragm, but the overall cartridge assemblies are different. Of the three mics, the replacement cartridges are R11, R57 and R58 respectively.
I do recall a Shure big, clunky lavalier from the early 1970s that had a cardioid pattern; I wouldn't be shocked to learn that its diaphragm shared a parts bin with the 57/58. It was too big to clip onto clothing, so came with an adjustable lanyard to hang around the user's neck.
Have you heard of the Tuffsett bridge? Is a bridge designed for fender offsets. I noticed Dan changed the Marrguar bridge for a Mastery. What about Mick's Jazzmaster? I'd would be fun to make a full episode about Fender offsets and that revolutionary bridge.
Mike Adams (Puisheen) has plenty of videos about it. Would be great to have him on the show to talk offsets and vintage guitars -he's one of the Mikes at Mike & Mike Guitar Bar in Seattle.
Looking forward to Robin's show! And now that I've replaced my phone hopefully I can get in for the next live. And looking forward to hearing the fabled petri-cab in the coming months 🦣
Congrats Andrew! \m/
What an epic ending to a VCQ!
Maple is one of the cheapest woods in the world and Rosewood one of the most expensive. THAT is a giant factor in peoples arguments about tone woods. Dark chocolate Brazilian rosewood is awesome But most have never played it. How many Maple neck acoustics have you played? Rosewood sounds scooped in the mids as to Maple to my ears. With a fender you can swap an exact neck with the exact same frets and nut material and test this . Using a looper to A to B compare anything guitar related is a game changer by the way . Eliminate short term memory.
Norman, Oklahoma here watching… good stuff guys! 👍🤟🇺🇸
Wayman Tisdale!
I recently had opportunity, in a studio, to hear the difference between proper LA-2A compressor and its plugin brother, on vocals and drums.
The acual LA-2A is just magic. 2 buttons, even baboon can operate it after couple of minutes and awesome results in like 3 minuts of fiddling.
Yep. Once you hear it, it’s hard to go back.
Wet dry wet in the Grand Canyon......epic!
keeley son of a fuzz head is a great option for classic overdrive and Fuzztones
Fender Pro Junior is one of the greatest sounding amps ever! You guys played through one at analogman Mike’s. I heard Jeff Beck used it to record most of his stuff. Small amp, two knobs, tons of tone.
Dan, are you aware that Bukovac helped design the music city bridge? Puts them on old Juniors for good intonation ánd good tone
i was on a gig last week. my volume was going up and down , my tone control on my guitar wasn't working properly... cable.
Go to the Grand Canyon. Beyond description.
I second that!! Everyone should go at least once in their lifetime!
Gelato is made from milk, ice cream is made from cream or at least it’s supposed to be 😋
15:37 Any thoughts on those humbucker 🧲 magnets and the way they’re probably stifling the string vibration more on that guitar? Just a gnat’s?
(Or are they P-90s?)
Hello LEG END'S, so glad the interweb God's have decided that we can hear you on a Monday. My extremely Better Half misses you guys when you're not on . And she's a Real Housewives kind of gal . I'm with Dan the BELEW ERA OF CRIMSON is almost a religious experience. I've been begging and praying that BELEW ,VAI , LEVIN & CARNEY come to Europe when they do the three eighties albums BEAT , THREE OF A PERFECT PAIR & DISAPLINE ( excuse the spelling) Starless & Frame by Frame are something else. You should get Fripp on when Vai says it's a struggle, you know your in good company. Anyway enough waffle, love you guys. " IN A MANLY WAY " OH GOD THAT SOUNDS EVEN WORSE!! . PEACE AND LOVE TO EVERYONE ❤❤.
Hey, guys! Have you found yourselves a proper hiwatt cab yet? If not, I think you should grab a new cab from hi-tone. They're an American company that's been reproducing hiwatt designs with the blessing of the Reeves family, and have reproduced the tonality of the fane speakers from the 70's with the help of eminence speakers. Also, I can bear witness to the fact that F hole makes some difference to the thinline tele's design. Under a cranked house I can feel the air beating out of my tele's F hole. It's more solidbody tone than not, but it's something.
Mick and Dan, I’m a 53 yr old graduate student at Middle Tennessee State University, not far from Nashville. My Master’s Final Project is producing episodes for my own web series. As part of my research component on video/audio production, I’d love to have a conversation over Zoom about your production techniques and workflow. Your show is one of my favorites, and consistently well shot, edited, and mixed.
Sorry for the long comment, but please reach out if you are interested in allowing me to interview you.
You might have better luck contacting them by email or through the website.
Thanks for taking back the name Donald. I approve!
Hey all. Thoughts on the Princeton tweed with the 12” Eminence Cannabis Rex speaker? It’s an FSR (Fender special run). Wondering about a 12” speaker when the Princeton is usually a 10” speaker.
Whole bunch of yes from us! We’d buy that!
That outro.
Everyone go and quickly buy a bass Vl before they triple in price!! lol
Hi leg ends…I’m just getting into mods and committed the cardinal sin of removing the single coils from my MIJ Strat and replacing them with 2 low powered minihumbuckers. It’s made the guitar much more useable for my faux jazz and can even handle stoner rock, would you believe…the guitar isn’t ‘vintage’ by any means, so I reckon mods are now a thing for me. Why leave a guitar in a cupboard unplayed when one can cheaply make it versatile and actually played? Thanks for all you do and hello from Brisbane.
I love this. Mick here. Landau vibes!
If you guys do visit the Grand Canyon will you record some IR’s for the Poly reverb?
Awesome!
Missed the Superchat....argh
I would like to suggest a idea for a show, Could viewers send in pictures of our gear to get feedback on setup? only 1 guitar and 5 pedals?
Nice! Love it!
@@ThatPedalShow You guys are the TRUTH!! I own small amps.,.. VT 20 Vox amp and a Super Champ DX both amps have tubes. The ABY box Big Shot by Radial,.. bring these two amp together. The two amps have built in voicing and I use 5 pedals.,,, VSN Dumbler, Donner Verb Square, White Tape by Donner, Stylish Fuzz by Donner, TC Electronic Spark Booster. I wanted to know how can I get better or different great sounds without losing good tones. Maybe You two Great Grand Masters can give small amps and pedals a test run to create usable sounds with great tones and sounds. Thank you for All that you do!! We need you!!!
Someone please clip out the SG dance out as a gif

I hope you're getting loads of money from all these ads. And I mean that with all sincerity. I've been meaning to buy some merch. Out of curiosity, how good do I need to be to wear your shirt in public? What if Im playing guitar in public?
Do you chaps happen to have a Mesa Single Rectifier amp in the house for testing pedals? Just curious. If so, any comments?
We do not. But it’s an amp I remember really well as I used to use one years ago. Mick here. Pushed clean mode was always my fave place. Takes pedals nicely in the front. If you start using the dirty channel a lot you really need the loop. Assuming it has one, although I never tried it! Cheers! Mick

When you are paying 100 grand for monitors, are you listening to the music or the equipment?
Then you are happy, how awesome the music sound thru your great gear. And wonder how many details were you missing on average equipment.
@@stanislavmigra not convinced
@@cleftturnip7774 if you want to be negative, I cant help you.
@@stanislavmigra it's not a negative/ positive thing.
Once you have good audio play back equipment, it’s the same as any instrument, the law of diminishing returns applies… Only you can decide with your own ears and personal “feel” whether what you are hearing and feeling is more magical to the extent there is no thought of the equipment, only a wonderful experience which the more affordable solution did not give you. It’s basically the same psychological concept for anything you can do in an affordable manner compared to the high end. If you do spend serious money and do NOT get that magical experience, then I suggest it will have been a waste of time and money. But if you get it right the experience is wonderful and all the negatives just fall away. 🙂
Im fine with the commercials, but could you boost the level of your sound, cause when it switches its so damn loud. Thanks.
Gentlemen,.. in addition to my gear addiction, I’m also a watch collector. I’ve noticed over the years that each of you have worn various and interesting watches. Are either of you collectors? What is it that makes guitars, gear and watches go so well together? Mick- when I see that apple thingy on your wrist, I have the same reaction that you have to seeing the amp modelers and multi effects units. Stop it! Please, and Thank You.

14 minutes into the video and already had 3 ad breaks. Makes it unwatchable 😢
I was the same, YT became unwatchable so I had to upgrade to ad free YT premium.
I've had UA-cam premium for a while now, it's an annoying necessity to stop the adverts. But I don't pay for a TV license and refuse to watch TV because the bbc are the biggest criminals going. So figured paying for UA-cam wasn't a big issue.
I didn’t get those ads
Yeah I didn’t get any ads. I think you got em all. When I pay for premium they just give you all my ads.
Paul Giamatti cannot do the Dan voice.
Bloody ads
Sorry we’ll turn them off for lives. YT has turned em on by default!
What happened? You guys used to have very few ads. Now there is a lot. Seeme to be s trend on UA-cam in general though. Shame.
Ah balls. Sorry! YT has turned them on by default. We’ll turn them off for lives. Old videos will have them added. Unfortunately it’s hard for us to do what we do without the ads. Cheers!
Yep, just turned them off. Apologies!
Get a Premium account… no ads
Thanks guys! Definitely appreciate it and always enjoy your videos.
