- Here's a demo of some of the sounds of the Ethos Overdrive Amp, a compact 30 watt amp built into the famous Ethos Overdrive pedal. The whole thing weighs around a pound and can drive an 8 or 16 ohm speaker cabinet. I'm playing it into a Port City Wave cabinet.

Great demo, sir! Wonderful playing. Thanks! And thanks for the excellent demo!
Loving this thing! I’ve been watching demo’s. I need to contact this company. What a tone! Your playing is amazing as well! So much feel!
Love your video's tim, informative and always great playing ...
I really enjoyed the Wes -style playing and tone around 5:30, by the way, bravo. Hard to find demos that show the full range of a pedal's tones, but yours shows the gigging musician tones, which is extremely valuable. I don't know if you're still making vids but I subscribed after watching this one.
Finally! A review that doesn't consist of 10 minutes of someone trying to emulate Keith Richards or Angus Young. Thank you.
Nothing so soothing to hear that Stratocaster sound Tim. You’re the best.
Tremendous playing. Subscribed. That jazzy thing at 9:34 awesome!
man that sounds amazing. Lots of different tones and very valve like for ss. Love your playing too
Tim, your playing is so smooth, especially on that D'Aquisto! I hope to have something near your repertoire one day.
Nice sounds!! and your playing is amazing!!
TIm. I FREAKING LOVE YOUR PLAYING!!! @ 6:15 or so the tone is gorgeous and of course your fingers do not suck either. thanks for the wonderful demo man!
I already ordered mine, but I just keep coming back to this video. I have been watching it for maybe the 20th time now, and your playing is just sooooo good, I absolutely love it! I will definitely check out your dvd!
Great playing.
Sweet sound Tim : ) Happy New Year also
i love these ethos pedals. if i didn't have my two rock crs v3 AND THE ODS 50, I WOULD DEFINITELY GET ONE.
Order my ethos, hopefully somewhere next year :). Your playing is AWESOME!
You have fan, you play beautifully.I have an Ethos and love it.
COOL SOUND & PLAYING! Cheers!
Now I am tempted, darn it!
Great vid 👍🎼
Nice that backing track reminds me of Santana playing on "Game of Love" in the 90s... dig it .... looking at this and the dumbloid... thinking the ethos would be better for clean to low gain
@SensibleMusician I with you man, even 50 would probably be enough. Actually with the speaker sim out you can send a line to the PA and use it on any size stage.
for me is not a pedal, but just like an amplifier with dumble the tone controls.io I connected to my mesaboogie study 22 and has its own different types of sounds like a dumble.Nothing to do with pedals.A beast.the sounds are crisp and the bass is all standardized and made all at the same level.Thank you very much Tim.Saluti from sardinia Best Isle of Europe from Italy
Ok, thanks for the reply. It would be interesting to hear a comparison between mic recording and direct/spk sim out..
@SingleCoilVoodoo Ordered my Ethos TLE in February, originally was told that the pedal would be shipped April 2013(!). Got it in December. Merry Christmas to me!! So it was about 10 months. It was worth the wait. I've been using it at church with my Pod X3 (for speaker sim and FX), and it's great. I love having a channel switching "amp" in my rig!
Nice playing.
on the commercial that plays first for the EHX Soul POG. what would you call the color of the Start he's playing? I'm currently in the middle of a build; I have a 1-piece lightweight Ash body (4 pounds, which is difficult to find a one piece that light usually is a compromise between light or one piece). a Warmoth modern vintage 1/4 dawn maple neck with the asymmetrical Wolfgang profile, Dark Indian rosewood, compounded radius with Dunlop 6105 vintage/tall stainless steel frets( I prefer the tone of nickel frets, along with the strings I use which are pure nickel wrap. but I all my own work on my guitars (worked in s shop for a few years now focus on building and modifying amps/pedals and detoxing systems), and haven't done a refret on s compound radius fretboard, which doesn't seem hard although I know my boss jaye refretting guitars that originally had nickel because the SS don't seem to want to stay seated, and the end trend to want to pop out. it's the leveling and dressing that gives me pause. leveling a regular radius is easy! 10" radius, I use a 10" curved grinding/sanding block, but they all flatten out, it sends like a nightmare. figured the SS would hold this headache off for a while.
sorry for the tangent, but I'm thinking of what finish I'm going to use; was thinking of the candy green like on the Clapton, but I prefer your color. do you know what the finish is; looks like b the v Lucerne green from the RW Eric Johnson Strat. looks sick with the dark rosewood and vintage tint on the back and headstock.
Love the jazz tones you get with the CC tele ... was that Georgia on my mind?
Great as usual! :)
Sweet sound ...Sweet Playing Enough said
the pre amp version is in the Amp version so they sound exactly the same assuming you are playing the pre amp into a mostly flat clean head room amp.
If I could see a vid of someone playing chords with this as an amp simulator I would buy it instantly
Mr L, thank you , lovely demo, and very tasteful playing as well, hats off. This Ethos thingy is the cat's meow. Ear candy. thanks so much. That little descending Gvamp you do on the Mongrel Strat w/ Fralins, really blows me out. Is that posted anywhere or tabbed anywhere ? Clifton
Has anyone tried the Ethos Overdrive pedal into a Tech 21 Power engine 60 ? Just curious about using the Ethos as a light weight rig and what's the best way to run it ! Amp version in this demo sounds killer going through that "Port City" cabinet !
Outstanding!
you, sir, are awesome.
@ruiner54 Not sure what tone you are talking about but the CC should sound great and Jazzy just straight into your amp.BTW all the Ethos settings are on the screen during each clip.
It is quite loud on both the clean and OD channels. Any gig that you could do with a deluxe reverb you could do with this amp. It's got more clean headroom than a deluxe reveb.
Thanks Tim!
Hey Tim, this is such an outstanding demo underpinned by your brilliant playing. Thanks for this. I have 2 questions - 1. Are you using the PortCity Wave or Wave OS cab, and what speakers do you have in there? 2. Why do you have that blue 'blanket' thing over the cab on some of the pieces? Secret settings? ;-) Thanks, mate.
I have a question about the OD Amp and a huge “Thank You” for anyone who can provide an answer… When using the Speaker Sim out (to recording interface/i.e. not using power amp section) is the fx loop incorporated into the signal?
it depends on when it was made earlier one , no. later ones yes. as far as I know the earlier ones can get a retrofit
thanks for the response... another side question... I have been looking at lollar pickups for my tele... I saw your comparison vid of the 52 and special T... but was curious about the Lollar Vintage Ts? Have you tried? Were the 52's better?
Hi Tim, I love the tone and feel you have in your videos. Also, I never hear any hum or buzz that is associated with single coils in your clips. How do you eliminate the noise, and do you ever run into problems at higher gain or volume settings?
Very nice playing and sound! Was this recorded with a mic (what type?) or did you record it direct via the spk sim out?
@levitheguitarplayer Its on the Boss Loop Station.
Hi Tim ! Great as usual... Wich bridge pickup do you have on this Telecaster ? Sounds awesome..! Thank you Tim ;-))
Do you use the GAC switch on or off?
Yes, I'd like to know this as well. Does the amp version sound any different from the OD version?
Sorry if this has been asked before. Can this be used with a band and no mike on the cab? I play in a six piece R&B band (keys/bass/drums/guitar/2 singers) we play mostly small clubs but I never mike the cab - currently using an Axe-Fx with a Matrix GT1000FX 1u rack. Would like to have an alternative light weight backup rig. .. but it needs to hold up in my band setting and stay clean at a reasonable volume.
My Ethos does not have the effects loop built in so running a reverb or delay pedal should be after the 1/4" out.....?
Yes
Nevermind the first question. It's an EV12L, I relistened to the whole clip again. Thanks!
Ok, thanks. I just ordered an Ethos Amp and a 1x12 Celestion V30 cab, I hope that will work fine and that I can make it sound as good as you ;-)
Ketil Strand hi!! Could you tell me your experience ?
Any noticeable difference between the straight pedal vs amp version?
Hi friend! Great tone! Did you run the Ethos straight into cabinet or use a Poweramp? Thanks.
How's it sound with humbuckers? Thinking of ditching my tube head and getting one of these instead...
I put an SM57 in a Port City Cab with an EV12L inside, no direct out.
Just adding my experiences gigging with this amp now for a little over a year. It's all I use now unless it's a big stage and then I run in stereo with either an Allen Accomplice or an Ampeg M-15. Use a 1x12 neo loaded cab with the ethos mounted on my pedal board. Super light rig. You can hear this set-up if you search, jam-art lonnie's lament and/or jam-art Surely. The ethos is the drive on the Jazz tune and a JHS superbolt is the drive on the Lanios tune. I am not paid, sponsored.... just think that this is a great option for the gigging musician.
Jam-Art .Music So you can run it directly into another amp if needed?
Yes. You can even use it as just a pedal. All outputs are active all the time. Really worth it even if you keep it only as a back-up.
The rating on the ethos amp pedal is 30 watt would it be able to power cabinet of 100w because I don't think there are 30w cabinets
The 30 watt spec is the max output of the amp. The wattage rating on speakers is the speaker's ability to handle that max amount of power. You are all good unless a speaker is rated below 30 watts. Note, the speaker impedance is more critical, check the manual, but I believe the Ethos needs either a 8 or 16 ohm load, nothing lower.
Oh yeah, Baby! I've been on the Ethos wait list for about 7 mos now......Only 2 more years, and it will be mine. You'd think Rob could hire a couple guys to do soldering? Being as he's got around $300,000+ in wait-list orders sitting there?? Or does the wait add to the "Mojo" of the box?
I own the ethos plus many other preamps. One thing about the ethos that bugs me is the amount of control on a foot switch, I would much prefer a rack unit with a floor switching extension. I know this would take away from the portability and add cost, I prefer using other overdrives and boost pedals on the floor rather than the ethos. I usually put it on the desk to explore tone, I cannot help but think a rack version or memory storage would make this unit more practical for myself.
probably ought to check with Robbie about a 16 ohm speaker. you can go to the web site and ask
I want to buy one of these (the power amp version) but spending more than $900 and waiting almost a year aren't in the cards for me. I'd love to buy one used and I'd pay about $600 for one. Anyone happen to be selling one? Hit me up.
I suspect Mr. Lerch could play a pine 2x4 with strings through a transitor radio and make it sound stellar. It's him, not the gear.
tube or solid state amp?
must use speaker cable? or instrument cable is ok?
Speaker cable from the amp outlet? By all means.
@mfrieauff Thanks, I have an outline written for it and would be happy to show it to you in a skype lesson if you want to give that a try.
What's the difference between using the settings for Georgia and not using the Ethos OD Amp at all? Did I hear you say that Ted Greene used an overdrive? I know there is a subtle difference between sounds you and TG get and the purely clean sound. Can this OD make that difference?
Hi Spencer, not sure what you are asking, this unit is a pre amp and an amp in one so to bypass the pre amp would eliminate any tone sculpting. think of it as a two channel amp, one side is clean and one side is overdriven. hope that helps.
not using the ethos od amp would eave you with just playing acoustically in this case.
Hey man, what's up mate?
@joepassfan Solid State.
sup alex
Robbin Williams can really play guitar.
It's Jeff Bridges
+SSVplus it's Liam Neeson
MrPigstail,
Wrong. Fail. No comparison. Don't hijack this vid to pimp that Joyo
