@@cinnamonstreet80sband60 I've got a Hudson Sicecar sounds fucking terrible. But yeah beautifully made. There no facility on it to do anything with the midrange - Which it absolutely critically needs. I can make it a bassy fuzz or a wasp in a jam jar kid's metal tone but it cannot sound good (with my gear). I use Marshalls and my lead pickup is a 500T, I have just about every Marshall head from the '80s on and the Sidecar is awful with all if them. It'd take a lot to get me to try another Hudson product. I reckon it was R&Dd with PAF type pickups and some super neutral amp. It's poor design not to build in adequate tone sculpting tools. I'm using an MXR '78 Badass (shit name) and a Wampler Sovereign, stacked - that does it! Alone, either sounds really good

@@cinnamonstreet80sband60 I really relate to this, I try any pedal and get really different results to demos. I use Marshalls which is fairly typical, But I use a Gibson Les Paul Custom with a 500T wired straight to the output. Most pedals seem to be voiced around PAFs and super neutral amps. Some demos are so stupid. I watched one about distortion the other day and the lad used single coils through the whole vid. What a goon. I watch demos to get an idea if a pedal *might* be good and to compare between pedals, but never really know what I've got until it's under me foot. I have a Hudson Sidecar. SO CRAP (for me)!

Also agree, and if someone don't want to take away all their pedals it's always good to introduce them back one by one, play with just one effect for a while before switching to the next etc. That way you can find out which one you really want on your board and which ones to skip. I did that and are down to three pedals and a tuner, and I might narrow it down to even less some day

My amp of choice is a Fender BASSBREAKER 15 head and a cab loaded with a Celestion Creamback G12H-75 speaker. The guitar is either a SSS Strat or Tele. My amp is set to maximum gain and I get all the different tones, from semi-clean to full dirty, by using the volume knob on the guitar. No pedals or effects. Just a bit of Reverb on the amp.

After your recent Marshall video, life has been just unbearable until I picked up my new (to me) JTM45. I've never had a NMV Marshall before, but such an amazing thing, glorious thick overdrive, but the clean up on the guitar volume is just beautiful. I would maybe struggle on this challenge without some reverb, but I was amazed at how little I was using any other pedals last night. It was just a joy to play. The one thing that that surprised me the most (as you identified in your video) was how effects like reverb were usable even when it was well into overdrive! The whole experience has been a revelation. Thanks for single-handedly obliterating my finances, I've enjoyed every decibel of it.

Leg-ends! The one amp you want is a Traynor YCV4050, 20th Anniversary Edition in emerald (British Racing Green) tolex and wheat grill cloth. The 20th Anniversary Edition is not a limited edition, just part of the name of the amp. The amp is a core product and in good supply. This is a long one, so buckle up, but I assure you its well worth it. Sounds brilliant on both the Fender-y clean and [Marshall (vintage switch) to Mesa (modern switch)] dirty channels, with the built in boost (added tube stage) for the dirty channel and a killer spring reverb tank. All selectable with the included foot switch. Individual lows, mids, highs tone stack for each channel, a bright switch for the clean channel, volume control for the clean channel, volume and gain controls for the dirty channel, and a brilliant master volume for the amp overall affecting both channels. The powerful clean-channel tone stack takes you from lush 3D Fender-y cleans (more 3D than any Fender I've ever heard, mind you) to Vox-y chime and Marshall-y crunch. The powerful dirty-channel tone stack takes you from vintage JTM45 through JCM800 through to suped-up JCM800 brown-sound saturation with the vintage switch, and from smooth Cali Mesa-Boogie (Santana, Vai, Satch) to Mesa Dual Rectifier through Soldano SLO with the Modern Switch and tone stack adjustments. The amp runs 12ax7s and 6L6GCs for 40 watts, with auto balanced biasing for the power tubes. Comes stock with a 12 inch Celestion M65 Creamback in a pine cabinet. The best parts ... super reliable, durable, and made top-to-bottom in Pickering, Ontario, Canada, ... for around $1500 CAD new, and seriously undervalued sleeper in the used market for $800 CAD. So, about £1000 or €1100 brand new. Jack of all trades, matser of none DOES NOT APPLY to this amp. It simply kills on all channels, whatever you ask of it. Supremely underrated amp, supremely underrated company that's been making high-quality amps since 1963. Not affiliated in any way, just a fan. Check it out blokes.

My personal choices: One Amp: Boss Katana w/ Airstep footswitch One Guitar: My modded Squier HSS Strat w/ P90 in the bridge. Reasons: The Boss Katana is super reliable, durable, and with the Airstep footswitch allows for modding the amp completely from your phone. With access to the Boss Tone Studio, I could basically make the amp sound like anything, plus have 60+ effects. I have the 50 MKII, but I’d use the Artist if given the choice. The guitar: besides being the only electric I have, I’ve designed it with this challenge in mind. New wenge neck, locking tuners, bone nut, stainless steel frets, brass saddles, humbucker sized P90 in the bridge for wicked slide tones, CuNiFe neck and middle pickups, King Tone switch replacement of lower tone control for treble bleed circuit + wicked other tones built in, deleted other tone control to move volume down out of the way, and a kill switch in the place of where the volume knob was. There it is: my Essentialism Rig.

One thing I have noticed doing so many covers gigs, and that is the low level gain sounds "clean up" when in a band situation.....I don't mean the compressed OD tones, but bright clear, crunchy tones always sound cleaner to my ear when the band kicks in, so to that end, actually Mick probably nails it overall, with his "one under drive away" comment being not necessary actually. This is a cracking video, and I was yelling at Dan "PLEASE out a clean boost in front of either the AC15 or the Matchless and forget about delay!" 🤣🤣 These videos are truly priceless lads.....never stop doing them! 🤩

I started gigging in 2000, the only guitarist in a 4-piece band. We were an originals rock band, so there weren't a wealth of tones to cover - the occasional clean, but mostly a decent amount of gain. I was playing a cheap BC Rich Warlock that I'd outfitted with DiMarzio Tone Zone and Air Norton pickups (Paul Gilbert's set during the 90s), wired to be splittable. From there I plugged straight into a Laney LC30. I'd decided against pedals because I was new to this, so I wanted the simplest set-up, the least amount of distractions in terms of having to tap-dance on a pedalboard, and I genuinely wanted to see what I could get out of the guitar. My only concession was the Laney's onboard spring reverb, which was always on. Since then I've used a two amp rig, wet-dry, monster pedalboard, so I'm certainly not adverse to a more complicated set-up. But I'm still glad I started off simply, as it made me do more with the guitar.

I don't recall another episode that better demonstrates how good you two are at playing guitar. It appears that years of That Pedal Show have culminated in the mildly ironic result that you may sound better without any pedals. 😉

My deserted island rig is a Fender Deluxe Reverb (with bright cap cut and speaker change) and a Gibson Les Paul (with paf “style” humbuckers, PIO bumblebee caps, and 50’s wiring). Nothing else is needed. There’s a reason the DR is one of the most recorded amps of all time. 🤘🏼

Hello guys. Have to say I would be much more comfortable with my amp (which I know you have), the Tone King Imperial Mk II. Its got a clean tone to die for, foot-switchable to a Tweedy lead channel, with separate volume, great reverb, and a foot-switchable bias tremolo. Add to all that its onboard attenuator, so you can really dial in the level of gain you want independently of volume. I think its a good contender for most usefully versatile amp.

@@ThatPedalShow Fair enough! You got great tones with the “purist” amps. I’ve always thought the Imperial is built for these “amp only” situations, so my “I want them to choose my gear” bias was strong on this one

I'd always be tempted to just go 'all in' and use a Les Paul Junior DC with an AC15. I wouldn't even use the reverb or tremolo - I never use reverb in 'normal' life, anyway. When anyone's asked the question 'over a pint', I give that answer and just add, it's more versatile than an acoustic, and who ever really considers needing more than one acoustic for a gig? I actually gig HSS Strats with a Mesa, just because I don't like dragging around several guitars - I don't care what other guitarists think about my sound, as long as the audience has a good time.

Funny I actually liked the AC15 better than the matchless accept for volume. I never thought the AC could sound better than a matchless. Again the Fender Deluxe Reverb proves why it’s the perfect gigging club amp ever made. It covers so much territory and just sounds brilliant.

Loved the complexity in it's simplicity. Very much the Joe B. constantly quoting "all the pedals you need are right here! (pointing to his volume and tone knobs)". Loved your takes on it, and the adjustments made. Although just two, the amount of wideness and depth both of you added was pretty incredible (also funny both of you went for delay). Thanks guys. As always, ear opening!

Thanks for these videos, guys! I believe it is really beneficial for a lot of us to see, that even though you guys have a lot of bucket list gear that most of us don't have, not to mention, a lot of it, it's nice to see that some of that gear is truly, very specialized gear, and that you really needed to get "back to basics", and that those "basics" included the everyday normal gear that most of us have access to, and really drives home that we don't need the "unobtainium" to be good guitar players capable of playing 99% of the music that we would be capable of playing any given gig. Appreciate your approach to helping your community of followers. Thank you.

There is wisdom here. I hope - I really, really really hope (Mick here) - that we’ve always espoused that nobody ‘needs’ the unobtanium. We like it, we enjoy it, but to peruse it per se is madness. If your journey leads you there, as ours has, so be it. But please never think that it’s necessary for music or expression. Cheers!
