Great episode!! Chris is such a down to earth guy and rippin' guitarist. Thanks for not asking the unnecessary Foo Fighter questions - which maybe some other media outlets would try to capitalize on. You guys are too classy for that!
Love this episode! Shifty is one of my favorites! Such a great guitar player and seems like such a genuine good dude. That you all got together is epic! Definitely enjoyed the mutual admiration amongst you.
Whenever you get imposter syndrome or question this TH-cam business, just remember CHRIS SHIFLETT learnt about parallel effects from YOUR video! Keep up the great work.
Pure rock tones...... No messing around here. SO happy to see more artists pick up and use the G3. I have no idea why all these big rock stars are not using it. Makes no sense. It has everything they need, want, and more.
Love his music! My only complaint for the video: you should have let his song Liars Word in sound check at the beginning play a bit more! Awesome tune! Thanks for the great video
What a lovely gent Chris comes across as being. I’ve always thought that for all of Dave Grohl’s natural musicianship Chris was the “proper” guitar player that the Foo Fighters needed in the band. I have a bone to pick with you guys though… a sub-25 minute TPS video?! How dare you give me 45 minutes of my weekend back?!! It’s totally unacceptable!! 😡😡😡😜
Great episode, i bet chris is sure missing the friedmans though! He got a great sound but you could definitely hear it was an amp-less rig if youve spent enough time listening to real ones haha
I had the great pleasure of supporting Chris here in Denmark back in 2019 with my own band. Just the nicest guy. And we got to geek out a bit over the P90 Telecasters he was rocking at the time. Great fun, great evening.
@@ChrisShiflett-wi4pz I have to admit that I completely missed Foo Fighters due to poverty, such that this video is my introduction to you. Thanks for representing humility and overall chillness while ego and aggressiveness are widely promoted.
Even though there is a difference in feel and I might get a lot of hate for saying this, I'm really starting to think that ampless rigs are the better option now - at least for shows and home use. The best guitar sounds at the concerts that I've been to in the last few years have usually been the ones without an actual amp. Under perfect conditions in a studio, there might still be a small difference, but any decently set up DI rig will sound better than a miced up cabinet on a noisy stage.
Excellent video and great material information guys! 🙏🏻It’s amazing how good sounds the Wampler Tumnus into the Strymon Iridium. ( digital amp) I am very very impressed and surprised that he already goes amp less but still his guitar rig sounds absolutely phenomenal!
Love Chris’ playing. Hes a rare breed these days. One of the few guitar players out there who can demonstrate the type of guitar playing that works from the theater to arena. Also just a great dude, glad hes using G3. Dan out here improving guitar players lives one at a time
FAV light is not lit, as you can see from Nick's excellent camera work at around 3:38. Definitely using the "chime" Vox AC30 mode with the interesting cab C 😉 👍🏻
Chris is a badass on the old gitfiddle...super sweet guy as well👍 Great show as always guys and mucho thanks for my harmonious monk mk2....loving it🙏🙏🙏
What a great, practical, no nonsense setup and interview. Chris really highlights how the G3 makes sense for those players that do not necessarily have over the top, pedal-centric boards. The parallel fuzz/overdrive function is revelatory. Much thanks, guys!
I use an iridium for home demo’s, and I’m beginning to move away from the character it imparts on the guitar sound. Despite having a board full of Strymon pedals, almost exclusively. Weirdly, I hear that same character here, through a front of house PA, ambient mics, and TH-cam compression stuff. I’m excited for VCQ’s to hear how you felt it stacked up for live use, while you were stood on the stage at volume. Of course, needless to say Chris is getting some great sounds here.
Lovely stuff, gang! Love that Chris moved through the different sounds in a manner that helped make the edit smoother - he defo watches the show. How nice that a triple A rockstar still has time for we geeks and loves the music so much that he does a van tour after all these years. Thanks for the episode, Team.
I’m not sure there is a cooler or nicer rock star than Chris - his podcast Walking the Floor is well worth a listen! I keep seeing more Iridium’s on pro boards - particularly those from Nashville or with ties to Nashville. Hard to argue with the result and convenience.
Yeah, thank you for that, just watched after getting home from work. I have been a big fan of Foos for all of my guitar playing life, they were the first songs I learnt(or my cousin taught me) when I was 15/16yrs old. I've folllowed the various rigs he(and Dave) has used over the years (The Bassman/AC30 combination was the best, imo, Wasting Light tour). But one question has never been asked or answered, that if you catch up with Chris(OR Dave, when he gets jelous of Chris' new rig and wants to bend your ear) ........ I would like to request you ask them...... Who's were the green socks? Nate's right? I only wear green socks for gig days now, because of Dave mentioning a pair of green socks that were on the bus, nobody knew who's they were, but everyone had worn them at some point?? .... Thanks in advance, :-D Great episode guys, will be watching Monday. rock on. :-D
That’s absolutely awesome guys. Chris is one of my favourite guitarists. I run a soldano /ac30 rig because of him. His name is top of my list when the question name an underrated guitarist is asked. Plus I ordered a bunch of goodies from that pedal show store today so super excited for that too 🤘🎸
Chris is such a great guy chill guy and a better guitarist. I have seen this video like 8 times already. Love the Parallel sound. Definitely going to try it. I guess I also have to get a drop d pedal this is like the 8th video I have seen where someone says they love it or use it a lot.
Wow what a great guy Chris is and what an awesome video for the channel! Been watching you guys for the last six or seven years and it's been so great to share in your journey. Was looking at an old video recently and it looks like you recorded in a cupboard - look at you now! I love the fact that big names in the industry have been watching your videos and seem genuinely chuffed to meet you too, and hear your opinions on gear and tones. Just placed my order for more socks and my first T-shirt ! Love you guys
Maybe I didn’t catch it but how was he monitoring his guitar? I don’t see floor wedges so is there a cabinet on stage, or were you hearing through the mains? Side fills?
Wow, that looked like a nice intimate small venue and it sounded LOUD 🙂. Is my understanding correct that the Thekla venue is on a boat? To quote a Jackson Browne song "Rock me on the water!" Did you guys stick around for the show? Thanks for another great episode.
For my birthday, the missus wants to buy me a new strap like the starry one wot he’s got. (I’m working on raisingbthe bar to a couple of 29 Pedals pedals) but if that falls through, the strap would be okay. Any idea where 8 can get one?
There's a dude who deserves every bit of success he has had. Great video.
Been following him since he called himself Jake Jackson before NOFAN. Love his playing.
100% Noone more deserving of his success!!
My love for Chris is undying. What a legend
Great episode!! Chris is such a down to earth guy and rippin' guitarist. Thanks for not asking the unnecessary Foo Fighter questions - which maybe some other media outlets would try to capitalize on. You guys are too classy for that!
Shiflett is phenomenal
Love this episode! Shifty is one of my favorites! Such a great guitar player and seems like such a genuine good dude. That you all got together is epic! Definitely enjoyed the mutual admiration amongst you.
Dan’s face when he says thank you for making the G3. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Chris seems so down to earth! What a great dude. This episode was super fun 🤘🏻
Chris is just such a cool guy, great interview.
Awesome. I love Chris.
I think we need more of these!! It was very well done!
I wish I could hit like on this video 1000 times. Chris Shiflett is awesome!
Whenever you get imposter syndrome or question this TH-cam business, just remember CHRIS SHIFLETT learnt about parallel effects from YOUR video!
Keep up the great work.
Amazing conversation, thanks a lot TPS and Chris! Hoping for part two :)
Thanks Dan, Mick and, of course, Chris - what a great video.
Aargghhh YES, you all finally did it!!!
Pure rock tones...... No messing around here. SO happy to see more artists pick up and use the G3. I have no idea why all these big rock stars are not using it. Makes no sense. It has everything they need, want, and more.
RJM options are really a lot easier to navigate with the software. GigRig is really coming up short on the software end. Too much of a pain.
Love that parallel fuzz/phaser/drive effect, very cool
Awesome episode, guys! Love Chris’s playing, but equally the fact that he always just seems like such a genuinely great guy!
Really nicely done chaps, well shot episode and of course most excellent content! Love the boys reaction to the stereo delays!
rocks!
A Short but Great Episode. Tnx.
So fantastic! What a cat and what a player!
What a totally cool guy.😊👍
I love the thekla! was lucky enough to play there a year or so ago
Been waiting for this 👍🏻 top video. Love TPS
Dan said No Use For Name. I’m dead. I died. My favorite worlds have collided.
Best episode yet!!! Maybe has something to do with a member of the Foos😂🤘
Fun little conversation
Love his music! My only complaint for the video: you should have let his song Liars Word in sound check at the beginning play a bit more! Awesome tune! Thanks for the great video
Sounds awesome
That guitar tone was awesome . Really surprised there were no amps.
Love your shoes btw, Mick! 😉
Thanks! Red Wings FTW
Man, that Tele sounds like humbucker equipped guitar. Any clue what the pickups are in that guitar? 😛
What a lovely gent Chris comes across as being. I’ve always thought that for all of Dave Grohl’s natural musicianship Chris was the “proper” guitar player that the Foo Fighters needed in the band.
I have a bone to pick with you guys though… a sub-25 minute TPS video?! How dare you give me 45 minutes of my weekend back?!! It’s totally unacceptable!! 😡😡😡😜
For sure. I thought if Foo Fighters didn't continue he'd find a solo act or band to take him on tour no problem.
Great episode, i bet chris is sure missing the friedmans though! He got a great sound but you could definitely hear it was an amp-less rig if youve spent enough time listening to real ones haha
❤
You could just see Dan's body language when Chris said he uses an Iridium... :P
The realest cat on the planet
🖤🖤🖤
Forgive me if this was covered in the interview and I missed it. Why ampless for this project?
Cost, convenience and space in the van. Cheers!
That is a pragmatists board, there's a human who just want's to get it doooone.
When is the "That F***ing Pedal Show" shirt coming?
That F***ing Pedal Show
- an actual Foo Fighter
that's a shirt
A great example of the strength of G3. A player coming off a simple true-bypass loop switcher headspace can jump right in the water without drowning.
Thanks mate (Dan here), really appreciate it, especially coming from the best board builders ever! 🤗🙏
@@ThatPedalShow Bless you. That is an altruistic assessment. 😀
What an experience. Chris is such a cool guy. TPS just keeps getting better and better ! Legg-ends for sure. Really love you guys
Cheers mate, love you too 🤗👍
Chris is BS free and Happy to share his tone secrets. A breath of fresh air in the world of guitar stars
I know right? Just as refreshing as Yngwie, 😂
7:31 - Just love the genuine reaction from Dan to the second Tele, he almost reach out to grab it ❤
What an absolute champion! Love how star-struck Dan and Mick are
No lies detected
I had the great pleasure of supporting Chris here in Denmark back in 2019 with my own band. Just the nicest guy. And we got to geek out a bit over the P90 Telecasters he was rocking at the time. Great fun, great evening.
How can you not love Shifty! ❤ superb player and an awesome dude.
Y'all are the damn best. I'm honored to have the kind of support that you show me, thank you. How are you doing it is nice meeting you here?
@@ChrisShiflett-wi4pz I have to admit that I completely missed Foo Fighters due to poverty, such that this video is my introduction to you. Thanks for representing humility and overall chillness while ego and aggressiveness are widely promoted.
Oh my!
He has to be a Ace Frehley nut, so many Ace licks and the sound (even with a Tele), not just because he mentioned an Ace song either. Love it

idk what magic the gig rig is working, but the iridium settings show that Chris is running it in AC30 mode. NOT the fender deluxe mode like he said.
Don't get fooled by where the knobs and switches are. he may simple use the stored fav setting
FAV light is not lit, as you can see from Nick's excellent camera work at around 3:38. Definitely using the "chime" Vox AC30 mode with the interesting cab C 😉 👍🏻
Love Shiflett. Also has a great podcast he does. Big fan of Foos work and solo albums
Chris is a badass on the old gitfiddle...super sweet guy as well👍 Great show as always guys and mucho thanks for my harmonious monk mk2....loving it🙏🙏🙏
A down to earth guitar player.
His Iridium looks to be set on Vox…not Deluxe Reverb.
What a great, practical, no nonsense setup and interview. Chris really highlights how the G3 makes sense for those players that do not necessarily have over the top, pedal-centric boards. The parallel fuzz/overdrive function is revelatory. Much thanks, guys!
Haven’t been to the Thekla since I saw The War on Drugs in 2008!
i love how he's a down to earth bloke. amazing ampless tones too.
FAT sound, love it! I wish Chris would talk more about No Use for a Name. Up to this day i believe it's where he most shone (at least as a soloist).
One of the most down to earth rock stars you will ever find.
I use an iridium for home demo’s, and I’m beginning to move away from the character it imparts on the guitar sound. Despite having a board full of Strymon pedals, almost exclusively.

Of course, needless to say Chris is getting some great sounds here.
Yeah man, I dig the almost mid 70’s Eagles vibe that deco is giving him
This is awesome! And how much Ace Frehley does Shifty have in his lead playing! ;) Love it. Such a great dude.
Thanks a lot for this. Chris is one of my favourite guitarists. Super great guy and amazing player. Discovered him through No Use For A Name.
He has a great vid w/Paisley.
He says he's using the fender setting on the Iridium but when Mick zooms in for the closeup it is set to the Vox???
Midi
Dan, thanks so much for mentioning No Use For A Name, they were such a great band and seem to be really overlooked when people talk about Chris.
couldnt agree more!!
Lovely stuff, gang!
Love that Chris moved through the different sounds in a manner that helped make the edit smoother - he defo watches the show.
How nice that a triple A rockstar still has time for we geeks and loves the music so much that he does a van tour after all these years.
Thanks for the episode, Team.
I didn't know this gentleman, and I like him. 😊 (Maybe I have to take my rock off) 😂
Absolutely love this man an awesome guitarist ...and a great show from D+M also awesome guitarists / tonedoctors .....thanks very much .
I’m not sure there is a cooler or nicer rock star than Chris - his podcast Walking the Floor is well worth a listen! I keep seeing more Iridium’s on pro boards - particularly those from Nashville or with ties to Nashville. Hard to argue with the result and convenience.
I just re bought a strymon iridium due to this video.
Awesome to see a tumnus and a muffaletta on his board..2 of my favorite go tos and you can't get a bad tone from either of them
THIS IS SO FRIGGIN' COOL! Congrats to the whole TPS family for this epic moment!
Hahah! So glad to see the result of Rhett "Skull" harassing the crap out of Chris for not having a switcher! :) Cheers guys, loving this!
Omg evey interview he's the sweetest nicest bloke on the planet. Dave Grohl has impeccable taste. What a player

The Iridium was on the "Chime" setting, not the deluxe reverb.
I bet it was on a stored "fav" setting that contained the fender setting
@@joeguitar75 when you look on the video, he wasn't on the Favourite setting. It sounded great, but it was the Vox setting
LOVE THIS GUY.. sorry I missed the gig.. 😅😅😅😅
Omg! Now I just want to spend the rest of my day with my tele!!
What a lovely man. And a great player.
There is clearly much of Dave Grohl in Chris Shiflett! What a great player.
Love Chris and his insights. Great video
Dude I’m loving this
Maybe I didn’t catch it but how was he monitoring his guitar? I don’t see floor wedges so is there a cabinet on stage, or were you hearing through the mains? Side fills?

Yah! Rockers afloat! But it wasn’t loud sadly. It was very safe in terms of volume.
Chris is so Diferent then Dave in Parsonaily witch i love the man deserves everything he has i just love him and his Guitar playing
One of my favorite guitar players! great dude.
See ... Ampless can be a good thing! Especially when you're lugging your own gear.
I’ll lug my own gear until I drop dead. Mick here.
@@ThatPedalShowhahahaha.....
Go big bottles or go home eh? 😂
Bleepin' cool episode!
Loving the down to earth vibes here!

Proof you can certainly do it all with a simple telecaster and a few basic pedals.....................................
