Guitar Rig For Your Mate Challenge: Hate Or Great? - That Pedal Show
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 31 ก.ค. 2024
- We choose four pedals for each other while playing each other’s main guitar and amp. What could possibly go right?
Life too short for long TH-cam videos? Please see the ‘Interesting bits and go-to sections’ information below.
Welcome to the show. Regular viewers will know that Dan and I both have a strong 'home' when it comes to our main guitars and amps. In Dan’s case it’s a Fender Telecaster and his Matchless C30 amp. For me it’s a Stratocaster and my Two Rock Classic Reverb Signature. People have been asking how we might fare playing each other’s main gear… so that's what we're doing. And just to make it more interesting, we also choose four pedals for one another that will hopefully challenge and inspire in equal measure.
Join us as we go through the selection process and skate out on to the thin ice of each other’s gear.
Enjoy the episode!

When Mick opened that cupboard........he has the boxes
Don't tell Josh
vincent bull I sing that jingle every time I see a box in any part of my life now. No one understands.
I think Josh still wins. He’s also got foam.
I'm worried about that EchoFix box precariously placed on a filing cabinet.
@@papaacorn9479 Whenever someone claims expertise I sing "No-one knows what they're doing".
Mikey Neumann. Legend.
The jingle is so silly, but makes me laugh everytime.
I love this idea as a periodic series. Maybe future episodes could be something like "build a genre specific board" or "simulate a problem at a gig and make do as best you can board", etc. Keep up the good work, D&M!
Dan: Mick would use a Klon, I'm not giving him one.
Mick: Dan does not like the Klon, I'll give him one to see what he does with it.
Gifts of the magi gutarists
From a non-Tele guy, that Tele is the best guitar in the room.
“This will be over soon enough”
Lol that aged like milk.
I didn’t watch you guys during the worst bits of the pandemic but I’m happy I watch now.
Keep them coming chaps, it’s been 8 weeks of lockdown / isolation for me and it’s these vids that are keeping me sane!
Dude. Loving the content as always. I swear you two are like the guitar versions of Ernie and Bert. (Said with love)
Best compliment ever!
Bert here, Ernie here. Hey Bert!
this needs to be a shirt gentlemen. Get on it stat!
They now need to put the horn inside a Rubber Ducky body...or replace the horn with a rubber duck!
Mick on the right side and Dan on the left??
Are you trying to blow our minds!!?? hahahaha
Dan nearly every episode: "Something something Electric Mistress..."
Mick for the first 10 minutes: "I dunno...maybe a delay? Maybe not"
Me: "Nervously chewing fingernails"
I never quite noticed that Mick never plays a Tele. They both switch out guitars, but Mick never grabs a Tele and Dan never grabs a Strat. Funny! It looks so alien in Dan's hands, and like he wishes someone would please just give him back his Strat! Haha! Great, fun video guys! Thanks so much!!!!!
Dan looked like he was having the time of his life with that board. It was a pleasure to see and hear.
The Dan built board with a vent instead of blackbird would be my version of perfect. Amazing how you guys really sound like yourselves on each others gear. I thought the attack was because of the tele, but it's just Dan's tone filled fingers.
It's interesting hearing Dan and mick Play each other's instruments. You can really tell the difference in their styles and feel Mick has this slinky push pull rythm to his playing where Dan is more on beat. Great video Hope everyone's doing well in their isolation
“Let’s see which one fits.” A difficult choice always seems to come down to this.
What she said?
Wow, Dan has such a broad sense of music. He goes from doomy metal riffs, to garage rock, to bluesy, jazz walking bass with lines and on to soul/funk within a few minutes. Fantastic! Love it.
Definitely one of my favorite TPS episodes yet. This was so fun to see and hear you two inspired by each other's choices and rigs. And awesome guitar tones, as well.
Awesome video guys! You have such a knack of coming up with interesting ideas/challenges for your good selves, but in the end, you still inspire, inform, and enlighten. And, we all love and respect you so much, videos like this, especially in times like these, make the highlight of our days. Incredible!
I NOW UNDERSTAND THE ALLURE & COST OF THE TWO ROCK. IT TOOK THAT FUZZ PEDAL LIKE IT WAS BUTTER. NOTHING WAS LOST, ALL THE TONE AND DYNAMICS REMAINED !! IT MUST BE QUITE THE EXPERIENCE PLAYING.... WITH THAT AMP BEHIND YOU. WAS IMPRESSED WITH THE 'ADINEKO' . GREAT JOB BY BOTH OF YOU. 🎸🎼🎶 ROCK ON . MAN - STYLE !!!
Here for Dan's melodic chops and Mick's blues feel. More power to you guys!
Its funny how Mick brought strat smoothness to the tele and Dan brought tele percussiveness to the strat
38:20 Dan tearing it up with the half/whole! Strat vibe 😍. Love it
I love these challenges - you guys must be glad you had so many episodes in the can. Thanks for all the hard work
The adineko is my favourite delay! Hasn’t left my board in years now! So inspired every time I play through it. Great show guys. Thanks for the constant content keeping us all distracted in the best possible way 👍
What a TPS ! not only did you inspire each other, you inspired me. Top Job Gents !
Y’all two are adorable. I wasn’t sure how this episode would turn out, but it’s my favorite by a country mile. Well done, lads!
Nice episode. I like your board build challenges. The thing I love most about TPS is when you guys introduce me to and demonstrate pedals with which I'm not familiar. This episode had a few of those. Thanks.
Great episode - so interesting to see the switch of guitars towards the end and “coming home” regardless of pedals and/or amp.
This was such an amazing thing to watch, I was smiling and feeling the love between you 2 for the whole hour, and it was such a joy!!!
Wish I could do this kind of thing with my buddies (but we obviously dont have that many pedals :) )
You both sound best when you're playing your own guitar no matter what the pedals are. Shows me how important the right guitar for your playing style is. Great job!👍
I’m amazed at just how used to hearing Dan and Mick on their regular instruments I was. This episode has just about upended my entire world view.
You guys are just superb. Really enjoyed this. Thanks for keeping on educating and entertaining us all. Cheers!
Best episode yet! Great concept, and great to see inside your store rooms/cupboards/studios. And great playing all round! Take care guys!
Guys! The tone you get for Dan at 39:00 is insane. The best sound I have heard from either of you ever. This is a fun idea. Thanks for the diversion.
thanks for the awesome video! you guys have inspired me to start building my own pedals, here in japan! thank you for all the inspiration, and lifting up the mood in this difficult time
Don’t know what was weirder: seeing you two on the wrong sides or seeing Dan with a Strat and Mick with a Tele. Love you guys and love the show! Thank you so much for keeping it up!!
That was phenomenal guys. I really enjoyed watching this story unfold. Thanks!
Awesome stuff guys! I like seeing the walls of pedals up close as well!
Dan = Keeley D&M Drive, Mooer E-Lady, Boss CE-2 Waza, Analogman ARDX20. Mick = Fuzzface, Boss MD-500, Catlinbread Belle Epoch Deluxe, Strymon Big Sky. Love the boxes. Stay Safe.
Dan played some incredible riffs during this vid. So cool that a new rig leads to such kickass creativity!!!
I don't know if it was the different sounds or just a really great day but both of you were really inspired and coming up with wonderful stuff. Dan was coming up with the perfect thing to play as Mick was poking buttons and knobs. He just adapted to each sound and played something that showed it off.
This was a great exercise, especially because you have an incredible selection of spare pedals. My neighbor and I recently temporarily borrowed one another’s spare pedals to spice up our lives during the Covid pandemic. I’ve found some interesting tones with pedals I’d only just heard of, previously, and it got me out of my tonal comfort zone. Stay well and keep up the good work, friends! 🤘😊👍
One big plus of Lockdown is that I get to watch the show as it's released, rather than waiting until the weekend. Downside is of course that I then want more content immediately :) A great show, and an interesting insight into why certain guitars in my collection feel like "home" and others feel challenging and awkward. Dan You mentioned Burns, I have a double 6 in greenburst and it's my second home after my LP copy ('56 Goldtop by Epiphone with American designed P90s). Thanks for educating me and inspiring me to play more and do more with electric guitar :)
Outstanding. Very enjoyable and informative, especially about how the guitar - and confidence with/from - is more crucial than the particular effect.
See you soon!
Every single strum of that yellow Tele screams Rock’n’Roll! Every.Single.Strum. It’s just THE sound!
I kinda wish they'd used Red and Blue for this video. That would have really blown our minds!
Dan just loves everything. Even I could build him a board! Great episode guys.
Great show guys. I love it when you're outside the "comfort zone", because then I don't have to be! Hope you're all still ok & none of you or the fam are ill :goodvibes
4:15 “They’ve got the box”
This reminds me of a couples “how well do you know your partner” game. Great fun and interesting to see your thought processes for approaching the other person’s preferences while using your own gear
It's still not over 3 years later. Justice has yet to be served.
A really fun show. Thanks guys. Enjoyed you wrestling with each other's guitar.
That Free The Tone Heat Blaster is really nice, very versatile. It was a real joy watching Dan go to town on it.
Rubbing hands together. This is going to be epic I feel! Thanks for the entertainment and information as always. BTW, thank you so much for the advice on octave fuzz. I am having a BALL playing some really heavy stuff with it.
Awesome! That’s great to hear Dan!
I love that Dan is almost whispering!
Good one guys . Way interesting ...when you got your "own" guitars back , Everything was better . The guitar, and the player finding "the guitar for him" is bigger than people think it is .
The way you guys approach each other's rigs is interestingly different! Dan is attempting to find the best fit to what Mick uses normally (maybe since he's so used to providing that service in Gigrig), while Mick is trying to find something that Dan would like but out of his usual zone! Both very satisfying results.
Finally got my OCD today, thanks to you guys for another great tool in the kit! It's interesting how every time you change one setting or pickup, it feels like the response changes and you need to figure it out again. And feels like returning to the previous isn't the same anymore. It's very exciting. I now have 11 drives/boosters and craving for a couple more. And that's just he basic types like klon, ts, marshall in a box, treble booster etc etc. I think I had two before watching the show. And I regret none of them, they've improved my life and sounds and brought interesting understanding to gain and playing. Also 11 other basic effects, same can be said about them. Before the show I only had crybaby wah and SD-1. The nights in the mood have been amazing.
Loved watching Dan when Mick was showing him the board, he looked like a kid in a candy store 😛 Then it was very interesting that the first few licks he played with the strat straight into the Two Rock were very Mick like, ...playing to the sound...
Interesting that using pedals outside of your 'norm' made such a difference to your playing. Love the show as ever.
Loved this! What a fun episode and could be a fun recurring idea with different themes. :) Thank you guys, hope you are doing well!
As much as pedals can make a difference and change playing sound/style, this was all about the guitar changes for me. Pretty amazing!
Thanks Guys! Love the video!! Very grateful for the content!
I would like to start a petition to get you guys to switch guitars more often!!! PLEASE! Dan’s playing on the Strat was absolutely inspiring, and Mick’s touch and sensitivity was magnified by the Tele! I’ve always thought that Mick sounded awesome on a Tele since the first time I heard it (probably for a brief second on the ultimate overdrives shootout) and Dan completely surprised me with how connected he played through the Strat. This episode, although fairly “gear” oriented really inspired me to go get lost in my playing and pedals! Love you guys!
Dig it all guys...... Its such a thing that a style of guitar changes our approach when we play.
Great job and best to you and yours
Never Underestimate An Old Man And A Guitar!!!!!
Best
MIchael
Terrific..!!! I want to do this with a friend now..
It’ll bring out things we never thought of ourselves..
It’s a brilliant experiment..
Dan..!! Your playing is just so inspiring and versatile..
it’s always good but just exemplary here..!
I had to comment.. and we havnt gotten to Micks turn yet
Love Dan's attitude... He just amps on everything
Tele into a matchless straight in is so magic. Just sounds like a record
The riff Dan starts playing at 36:15 is sssSICK. With that delay, Oh, so good. GOT to make that into a song unto itself!🤘🏻🤘🏻
What an awesome episode!! I really enjoy watching you guys think your out of your element but then manage to make whatever it is your using sound like yourself!! I also appreciate watching the thought process behind these challenges, kinda nice to see how great minds think. Am I a great kind you asked?!? Why yes, in the land of wonderful tone, you are both a couple of the greatest!!
I will say though Dan, you were definitely channeling a little inner Mick playing that Strat. What a beast of an instrument!!
I love how seamlessly Dan can go from noises that no shred-head would ever consider "real guitar playing" (but which I adore) to jazzin' it up (at which I am decidedly rubbish).
Great video and great concept! As an extension, you guys should do a challenge where you both come up with rigs consisting of guitars, pedals and amps which you would never usually go for, be it style or brand, and try to make them work for your styles and see if it inspires anything new from your playing.
Man I think it's great that they both loved the boards. Real sign that they're great mates.
Wicked vid guys, enjoyed that one!. As it ended, please continue with an amp video about both of your amps in detail. That would be a goodun! stay safe chaps
Would have never picked dan’s pedal line up, but man what a sound his excellent playing got out of that board! So sweet. Good job Mick...
Mick sounded like a country master in like 5 seconds ha
Yes! Please never stop making vids!
Mick, loved that you plugged the early ideas of your vlog song in your playing... great vid !!
Well spotted! Thank you!
There were some very inspiring tones here guys! I like how the episode drove home the difference guitars make , not just in sound , but feel and note choice and the interplay with the pedals. I know you guys have talked about the Oil Can delays, but can you please explain where/why that type would be useful, it sounded lovely!
The Dandrive in the Adineko is unbelievably awesome. Reminds me of Neil Young's sound on the live album Weld which is Tweed Deluxe gunned with an EP1 into it. Just awesome guys!
Yay!
How about a "vanilla" board build video? Common pedals into a common amp.
Ex. TS, BD-2, Carbon Copy, RV-5, into Blues Jr or AC-15.
Love the Adineko. So glad it made it onto the board. It's one of my favorite pedals to play around with.
I'm so excited you put the Pink Panther on the board! I'm running a Belle Epoch Deluxe before my gain stages, and that Pink Panther at the end of my board. Also really cool to hear that Adineko in action!
It was cool to see you guys’ insight into how make an uncomfortable rig fit your style of playing
Love the premise and the show. But what I REALLY loved was fantasizing myself in that room with all those pedals to choose from!. "Hmmm . . . let's see . . . I'll try one of these, and one of those, and one of these" *drool*
I really enjoyed this challenge on multiple levels, it would be cool to see you boys do it again or something similar but with a go each playing to a backing track.
Dan's playing is top notch in that one. Love it
This video is actually helping me decide whether I like a tele or a strat better.
Watching you guys’ videos has got me all inspired... since my local shop is closed and I can’t get any new pedals and/or gear, I took a bunch of parts i had laying around and made a new guitar 😂 it’s an HS tele in daphne blue bc that’s all the paint I had laying around but blue is always great ala mick😂
Okay - everything always seems sound great, so I have believe that we're seeing the effect of really great hands. No matter what they touch, it all sounds like gold. So I think we need you guys to dedicate an entire show to getting bad sounds out of good equipment so that we can all know how to avoid it. Seriously.
We're a good eight episodes in to the quarantine, and I still chuckle when Mick says they're "lucky enough to get a load of stuff in the can" in the preroll.
10 seconds in and so pumped. Keeping Australia sane lads. When normality kicks in possible to do a Lovepedal ep? Loving the home recording vlogs. Rock🤘
Glad to see the Effectrode SR-71 Blackbird getting some love. I think that pedal is amazing.
My favorite Chorus ever was my old MemoryMan I had in the 80s. It was noisy but it was really thick. But it was huge.
This episode was really awesome, looking forward to more fun challenges when normalcy resumes
This is a cool concept. You guys should build boards for guests and artists you have on in the future and have a segment at the end where they try it out. It's good content lol
Me: Ugh... I'm really down in the dumps today, which is uncharacteristic for a Friday morning...
TPS: here! have over an hour of video to watch!
Me: Yep, that'll do.
I thought the way that Dan planned to use the Eccos for modulation with the blend turned up was very interesting. It would be cool to see a show where you focus on the “secondary functions” of some pedals.
Some of your guys best playing!! Well done 👏👏
I find it interesting that Dan made the strat sound like a tele, but the tele sounded very much like a tele in Mick's hands. Almost as interesting as the decision to move the amps rather than sit on opposite sides for an entire episode! Regardless, this was a great demonstration of how important the player is in the signal chain. Good idea, well executed!
Ok so now I am at Mick, wow! The tele suits you well! And vice versa, Dan with a strat is really lovely!
When I saw Dan with Micks amp and guitar my brain went in tilt! Half of it was prepared to hear that "Classic Mick Strat Tone" but the other was like it's Dan that is playing. It is amazing how (at least to my ears) that guitar and amp sound nothing like when Mick plays them, they sound really Dan-ish.
Just proving that point of how much of the tone is in the fingers :)
Anyways, great show, massive TPS fan, cheers from Croatia :)
Man, you guys playing each others guitars brings out all kinds of coolness! Nice works guys 👍 Now i just gotta convince my band mate to swap ours and see what we get out of 'em!
