Your gig, your sound..!! Your sound and your playing are becoming so recognisable and giving you and the band your own identity. The sound you get is awesome...thanks for sharing your trade secrets!!😅👍
Speaking of "said no one ever" - how about a bass compliment on a Chris Buck vid? Love that harmonic playing on Jump In! Hats off to those less string guys!
That last solo was EPIC!! I can't believe how well you bend and the fluidity of your playing. As for the pedal board, it only makes sense because you can play like that and you know what you want to hear. So, whatever tools it takes to achieve that sound are necessary. Rock on Chris!
Love your solos man... so musical... really great! Your singer loves listening to your solos also! He's over there just smiling away... probably thinking, "Damn... f'n guy is so good!" Cheers!
For your wah pedal, installing a Foxrox wah retrofit on the output will add an internal trimpot to adjust output volume. It also let me use my crybaby with my analogman fuzz without constant squealing.
My lord Chris, that playing at the beginning is a scorcher! Wow son! and yes exactly, we never ever complete our boards..lol,,it is a never ending, always changing thing and it could make a good metaphor for life really! lol Thank you for showing us your pedalboard, it is awesome!
Great walk through of the new board Chris, look forward to hearing the new song the UAD pedal has inspired. Your tone & playing are absolutely first class!! Love the way you play for the song and not just to show off, which with your talent we’d all love to do!!
Just played a gig last Saturday night with my oversized pedalboard. I like the compactness of Chris's board, nice and neat. Mine is as long as a guitar case but wider, two man lift. Chris has almost as many pedals in a much smaller space! - Love MIDI stuff, everything switches in or out, all in the right program, it's a must have utility with a big board. The Source Audio EQ2 is a powerhouse of utility with a MIDI set up, from quiet guitar or amp switching to controlling volume, wah stuff, compressor/limiter, mixer, EQ, tremelos, boost or other routing oddities. With MIDI it's just super useful. Almost unbelievable function.
Just a thought: if you can free up one loop on G3 you could insert the wah and use the built in pre or post gain feature to even up the output. Great video as always, you're a real inspiration. 👍👍
Great solution! I went for the guts of the beast. This has Pro - don't need an external device to moderate gain, Con - my sometimes dodgy solder skills. Ow. That's a bit hot - so could frag the wah... What are the pros and cons of your simple but excellent solution?
@@metatoneband Well, the pros are that you can either lower the gain at pre or post to balance the signal, or even bump the pre gain to hit a pedal harder to get it sounding dirtier, and then lower the post to match level. The con is that there are only 10 loops on the back of G2 & G3, so if you have more than 10 pedals you have to either gang several pedals up in one loop, have them in line before the switcher's input. or run them after the output, or a combination of both. There is also a volume pedal insert loop which is moveable to be after any other of the first 8 loops. I have a G2, they are extremely versatile switching units they're expensive, but the features really are worth every penny. The switching options give you a real wealth of choice.
I have a feeling you would sound great chris with whatever set up you are using. You definitely inspire so many people to pick up the guitar and play. Although some of the other young players these days are definitely great , I won’t mention any names but they play a million notes a minute and really have no musicality to their songs and it gets real boring fast. You can play fast if you want, or have that incredible feel and harmony to your playing that to me is just amazing. EVH was fast back in the day yes but what he was even better at for me was his rhythm playing was second to non. I love how you found your own style. A lot of players would kill for that brother. Amazing as usual. Rock on brother!
Hi Chris, you have 3 options for that wah and I'll order them from least to most invasive. 1) work it into a G3 loop and use the loop pre- / post- vol levels 2) simple resistor addition on the output. You'll want to get it on a scope and match input to output gain level then solder in the correct value in line with the signal to the output jack 3) change the transistors out for lower gain equivalents. I'd be happy to help but I'm in the US! If you don't mind shipping it, hit me up
Chris, Oh my God dude....obviously I'm a huge fan and am so appreciative of the inspiration you provide for my own playing, but damn....you absolutely nailed the "Warm Love" solo with a very welcomed new flavor to a familiar phrasing that is unmistakably "Chris Buck" Love you man, so glad to see you moving up the ranks towards "Legend" status....Rock and Roll baby....gonna go pick up my axe now haha
I think the best thing about the G3 is the fact you can rearrange/reorder the signal path of your loops. I'm using an OC10W by one control... very good... but I definetly want G3.
On the wah pedal issue , Joe gagan does great wahs and mods and will customize a wah to your liking , maybe see if he can help, also I finally decided to go with the rmc 10 it’s the best wah I have tried and has that midrange bump you speak of but without the gain, maybe check one out, keep up the great work you are a modern guitar god buddy!
For anyone wanting to reduce the volume of their wah. It’s just putting a 100k pot in between the pcb output and the footswitch. (Refer to any guitar pedal build diagram to see how it’s wired. I’d recommend a 100kB as you don’t want a drastic volume drop) Something that any tech could do or any friend who has built a guitar pedal or two.
Quality! It sure sounded good at Chepstow 😎 Sounds like Thorpy has a few new pedals coming out soon, perhaps this (Lightning?) drive & boost will be amongst them!
Thank you for playing a squire jazzmaster. I’m often good-natured laughed at by my buds for playing one but I love it more than my custom shop strat after I changed pickups.
Just shows just how much you REALLY need to know your gear to build a board like this. I am lazy and have gone the Helix route. But then I am not a professional touring / recording guitarist. Give it 6 months Chris and you will be on the pedal show again with Dan saying "well what i would do is....have you thought about" 😂😂
How do you get around signal loss on the HX stomp XL? Recently tried one and seemed to kill my input signal when adding it to my chain, even with the volume on maximum. Really keen to integrate open of these into my rig
On the Wah-Wah modification: I have no clue whether he does any mods, but did you check with Stu Castledine? He is producing his own Wahs and is from UK, too…
If Chris can run the Stomp for "most of" his delay needs, and also have four delay pedals, then I don't have to feel bad about having too many delay pedals. Which is 2.
I used to worry about duplicates too, but you need them if you have more than one setting you want and it's not practical to bend down and change it, or your pedals doesn't allow preset saving
At least you are using a great guitar. Is that a double cut Gibson with P-90's in the first shot? (I see it now, wow-Yamaha) Good on ya mate! P-90's RULE!
Getting rid of the gain bumb in your cry baby should be much easier then adding gain. Just a matter of implementing an internal potentiometer between the output of the wah circuit and the on-off switch.
Do you find that people come to your shows because of your guitar playing or does the band hold its own as a collection effort? The band sounds like the total package of a great rhythm section, excellent singing and a pretty good guitar player :)
@@swampscott2670what you called boring blues jam noodling most people call great music, I guess Everyone's entitled to an opinion even though some people probably shouldn't be.
Hey, so if you’re looking for a wah that won’t have the gain pump I would recommend the John Petrucci wah. It’s basically the rack mount wah that Dunlop makes but in pedal form. You can go in an tweak each frequency the wah has and get it exactly how you’d like it. I used one for a while and loved it, and the only reason I stopped is because I went digital and couldn’t fit it on the board anymore. Also I’m not 1000% sure about this but the slash wah does have a gain boost in it that is separate from the midrange stuff. IDK why but it does
I thought the G3 has individual input/output gain. If you can get your wah in one of the loops you can cut the output down. Just a thought. I also thought it has buffers, so the first pedal you have is redundant. 🤷
I have the feeling that the misterious pedal may be a signature OD of some kind. My resolution to not buy any other overdrive won't last long in that case.
Great video and playing as always! Question, I just noticed in one of the playing examples it lists the chain of effects and, if I'm not mistaken, you're only playing into your amps return, bypassing the preamp; is this something you and others commonly do, and what are some of the pros and cons? I've been playing this way for most of my 20ish years on guitar, I had a vox tonelab prior to my helix and have almost always just ran direct into the return on my solid state Yamaha 100W 1x12(crystal clear and transparent). Oddly, I used to get a lot of compliments on my sound *until* someone would actually see my signal chain, at which point they would do a complete 180 and turn their nose up at such an unorthodox approach.
Don't you love it when the "sheep" can't think with their ears? What's your Yamaha amp? My first was a G100 212 Mk3 from the 80s. It was the best ss amp I've ever heard/owned.
@@castleanthrax1833 G100 1x12 III(I assume that's a mark 3). So yeah, same amp half the speakers. And yeah, the clean is unbelievable. I've even managed to get some decent dirty sounds on the drive channel. Gotta love the parametric eq and the reverb is great as well.
Hey Chris. What did you ultimately decide on for a case for your board? I, too, have an SA550XDM and would love to know what you settled on. I remember you talking about a Pelican case but in this video it looks like you had a more traditional road case (perhaps the Schmidt Array case). Please let me know what you settled on and if you’re able to fly with it. Thanks Man!
Chris, how heavy is your pedalboard? Because I have been considering ordering the same model for a while but I am afraid that the weight will be too heavy and too heavy to put in the hold on a plane. Congratulations Chris, your way of playing is like your pedalboard, sophisticated but captivating!
Hey Chris Yep, slash mod is in theory should be an easy enough resistor mod, possibly on the opamp. In theory. Anyone would need to look see the diagram in detail, do some maths and obtain a "safe" one to do open heart tinkering on, before a firm aye or naw! Incidentally. As per my offer to my pal Jeff Fielder. I mutually refer you to each other and hope you caught the thread... Proper deep musical goodness in tone and touch (he was Mark Lanegan's band leader and musical director for the MoPop Alice in Chains thing the other year and a Nashville session cat)... I invite you to dig! Anyhoo. I build pedals, from kits, for fun. Including the graphics. My board only has the following off the shelf products for dist/od/fuzz: a mz waza. As my wife bought me it as a gift. The rest, inc expandora clone + if it's good enough for the rev! Some nasty tasty Earthquaker cops, who I have heard ENDORSE folk using their circuits. You'd have to ask Jamie. The pinnacle is a less than well none, now defunct builder called Devi Ever. They built the most mmm mmmmm devices. May I build you one of my choosing? At my cost and labour. Can either hand it to you next time you're here, I'm there or we could work out a po box. It'd be October now. Lemme know via here and your people can contact my people in the background. Love your spirit and how you let it spill into your work. Andy C.
Just an idea, no "advice". If the singers took part in the accompaniment during Your solos with a few "hoos" and "aahs" in harmony, they would look less awkward on stage.
I have a Golden Fleece, epic little box an all timer pedal, and I've never had issues with things in front. It's sort of in the middle of my signal and sounds great. Which I can't do with my other fuzz. But I do wonder what issues Chris has had because it's antithetical to my own.
Interesting. I don't miss the complexity of large 4CM pedal boards, or my rack days. For my gear these days, it's all about simplicity for me, but still has to sound good and do everything I want. I still have my tube amps, but I have a small portable digital direct rig, and I'm working on a computer / plugin based rig.
The more advanced (and more costly) reverb and delay pedals have that option, yes. You can save several different presets and recall them at the push of a footswitch. Some of them you can save quite a few.
Yeah sure buddy, I finally finished my pedalboard like an hour ago and am already getting a new fancy schmancy boss fa1 modded clone from Drunk Beaver cause I’m an idiot. It never ends.

Call Yourself a guitarist 😁
Congrats!
You’re a UNICORN!!!😂
Two days.
One day at a time.
Thanks bro.
Those are rookie numbers. You need to get those up. I myself change my pedalboard at least three times a day.
You win the most gain stages on a pedalboard award!
In all seriousness great build and as always great tone and playing.
Always a good day when CB uploads a new videos.

That new Thorpy pedal, can’t wait
I'm sure Dan from That pedal show would be happy to do the Wah mod, and be sympathetic to not affecting the tone in anyway.
I was gonna suggest the same!
The xotic fx wah can be dialled in to sound like the slash wah but with more control of output 👌
Very interesting..
For anyone wanting to reduce the volume of their wah. It’s just putting a 100k pot in between the pcb output and the footswitch. (Refer to any guitar pedal build diagram to see how it’s wired. I’d recommend a 100kB as you don’t want a drastic volume drop) Something that any tech could do or any friend who has built a guitar pedal or two.
Thanks for the tone tour!
The gigrig 3 can adjust the level per pedal I believe, and that would fix the wah problem.
Perfection in pedalboard form! 👌
That Thorpy pedal better be called «The Buck»! If not, it’s a missed oppertunity😄
I’ve got a good idea what that pedal is 😝 can’t wait to hear more about it
Love all the Mythos appreciation in here! I love my Wildwood Mjolnir and think they make some great stuff
Mythos are awesome! Like an idiot though I sold my Herculean v2 pedal and I wish I hadn’t!
I’d love to hear more about the Cali76 location in the signal chain, after all gain instead of before!
I love that Revstar, awesome…
Guitar sounds incredible!

Hey, so if you’re looking for a wah that won’t have the gain pump I would recommend the John Petrucci wah. It’s basically the rack mount wah that Dunlop makes but in pedal form. You can go in an tweak each frequency the wah has and get it exactly how you’d like it.

"...said no ever." 😎
Why do you use the hx stomp xl instead of the normal one since you have a looper switcher already?

John Mayer is using 3 pedalboards on his solo tour
