Demo/Review of the Janglebox JB3 by Doug Hammond, Producer/Songwriter of Daisy House. Daisy House music is available at: daisyhouse.ban... Janglebox at www.janglebox.com
Very good! Makes me even more excited to get my Ric 1993 Plus. It was a toss up between that and the 660/12 but I chose the 1993 Plus as I already have a 620 (6 string) solid body. I have my eye on the Byrds 50th anniversary pedal.
I just paid off the layaway on my 360/12 and I’m bone broke again, but I couldn’t be more satisfied with my life. After years developing my chops on a Danelectro 12 string, I have been using an Xotic SP. In trying to find the right compression sound, I was unable to get what I was looking for after buying and returning several well known boxes (MXR, Boss, EHX, DOD ) so I’m kinda skeptical about buying the jangle box without trying it out myself. It seems like you have a similar style as I, so here’s the question (at last): which Janglebox is the one to get? I’m equally inspired by Echo and the Bunnymen and REM as I am of Jim McGuinn.
That split with/without comparison is incredible! My sites are firmly set on that 660-12 too! Stupid question - which means I'll ask anyway: Can you get the same tones you get here with the basic pedal or is it really worth an extra $115 for the B3. I have a Princeton 65 RI & AC10 and already have a boost function in my Dane overdrive-boost pedal.
@@bellinghammond Haven't yet but soon - was hoping to get word back, thanks! Yeah, so many tone shaping controls between all the gear gets to be a quagmire. Man, you're informative, helpful AND inspiring - hat trick! Only the best for your New Year.
So what exactly was McGuinn running his Ricky through in the studio to get the monster compression? Was this like a standard rack-mounted gizmo, or what? It sure as hell wasn't a pedal, that much we know.
Roger's Ric was run through a **couple of LA2A compressors** and (to my ears) some kind of tape delay/slap-back echo (Turn Turn Turn) or chamber reverb...w some Putnam EQ (Pulteq?). I've also had good luck combing the 2x LA2A direct sound with a mic'ed Fender Reverb Deluxe sound on recordings. Roger himself said he couldn't get "that" sound live until the Janglebox came along, and having 'recreated' his studio sound to my satisfaction I'd have to agree, and no lie, The J-box is the way to go (at least at this point in time)
@@bellinghammond Fascinating stuff! That's insane that it took them coming up with the pedal to nail that sound live! I'd love to buy one of these pedals at some point, if I can save up for one. It's worth it, I'm sure. Does it do anything for a 6-string as well, or is it strictly for 12-strings?
Owner b4 me put round wound strings on my used Ric so finally getting around to changing to flats (lots of procrastination w a 12-string!) Can you tell me what gauge you use? Guessing Pyramid? Thanks much!
@@vibefrequencyable barre chords don't 'jangle' as well as open voiced chords....and, it may be harder to 'fit' all your fingers cleanly on the Ric 360's (I'm not sure on that point, but the necks ARE wider on the 660/12's which is what i have)
@@vibefrequencyable sorry, no. I don't use tabs myself because they are so rarely correct. I just 'listen' to records closely and occasionally happen upon videos/old clips that give you clues. Lately I've taken to 'slowing down' TH-cam videos to .75 or .5 speed to catch things as well. (click that little gear icon under the video to change speed) Eight Miles High is a 'freestyle improvisation' in a pseudo-Indian scale. To recreate it, it's best to do what Roger did: state the main 'theme' of the intro and then "go for it"
I just enjoy the heck outta this video. Have watched it several times. Thank you brotherman~
Glad you enjoyed it!
Oh WOW ! ....stunning !
It really is!
Love this channel...Danelectro 12 String works well with the Jangle Box through Vox AC15
Saint Roger is always watching
Genius and very entertaining

Good choice!

Best Janglebox review I ever saw! Don't dangle it, Jangle it!
Hu, now I've got Jangle-fever
that's an awesome box. Really freaking awesome! How about a DHDH byrds cover?? Eight Miles High? Tambourine Man?
Heavenly! Thanks for the upload.
That was damn good, Doug. Would be nice if you and Tatiana performed "Turn, Turn, Turn" someday. That would be awesome! (Pete Seeger would be happy)
We'll put in on our cover album 'to do' list....

How I wish Daisy House would come out to Australia to play at the Woodford Folk Festival one New Year.
LOVE to

Ha! So am i.... Get the Byrds 50th anniversary one
Love your demo. Great playing. Can you give us a lesson slowed down. Thanks.
hit that little gear icon right below the video and you can change the playback speed

don't know if you've pulled the trigger yet but the basic pedal is absolutely fine!

You are correct sir
goddamn that sounds good
What's your amp of choice when paying the 12 string live?
'73 blackfaced Fender Deluxe reverb
Matchless sc30 John Jorgenson recommended 😍🎸😍
@@martydibergi5228 love the "transformer" convertible top
Thanks for the video. Compare 1:19 to 1:51.
Just saw roger last night!
and you were right to do so!
@@bellinghammond im...curios...why do you think he plays no bar chords??? Always thumb over the top...?
