Nice one - my favourite home studio I've ever seen. He's basically got a real life version of the options we get from things like Fractal and Kemper lol. I like how in this video he talks a bit about the actual room itself and the house and about noise considerations.
I think this is probably the most in-depth and full look at Tim's studio. It's definitely the best one I've seen. Others have been good, but there's always been some angle of the layout missing, and the way the cab room is laid out is awesome. Andrew, you've done a ton of awesome studio tours, but I have to say Tim's studio is probably the one I'd try to model mine after, if I ever have the opportunity to make a dedicated studio.
Exactly. I was thinking the same thing. I feel like everybody else focused on the same 60% of his studio and we have finally gotten to see the rest. This is awesome.
Tim was a roommate of mine in 1979, and whether he was making coffee, on his way to the bathroom, watching TV, or anything...he had his guitar on. And if he wasn't doing something else with his hands, he was playing that guitar.
Watching his videos I always envisioned Tim was set up in a small room in his house. This is definitely not what I expected. It's cool to see all the toys and how things were set up.
Everything in this video is correct and represents the correct set of priorities if you in fact intend to make recordings. Which isn't unexpected given this gentleman actually makes recordings people listen to, but is still rare for what gets presented on TH-cam. I love the beautifully architected spaces you show, but this is what it really looks like, note the emphasis on getting things done and the elimination of every unnecessary movement.
Nice surprise. I clicked on the video thinking that it was a Tim Pierce video, I wasn't expecting this. Tim is one of my guitar heroes. Excellent job Andrew 👍👍👍👍👍👍
I love Tim Pierce! His discography is amazing! Like you said for sure top 10 session guitarist of all time! I love how his studio is perfect for him. You should do Stu G's studio!
This was a spectacular tour! Tim often talks about aspects of his setup, but we don’t usually get to see. I’ve always wondered about his mysterious amp cave below deck, lol. He always describes his workspace like an airplane cockpit, so I guess his amp setup is like the belly of the plane where many guitars sadly get damaged when musicians are forced to check them. 😉 😂
INCREDIBLE video, thank you on many levels (especially the level that every time my wife mentions my modest investment in my home studio I can whip this out and compare). Thank you Mr P, I've learned so much from you and this channel!
Tim is the fucking man. Full stop. The only issue I had with this video is Tim said oh this chop 6 is the bass for guitar players, and I'm just yelling at my screen why? Tell me why... I want to know so bad! Lol. Great vid and great info. Thanks for doing this one
I've loved Tim since the 80s when he played and toured for Rick Springfield. He is top-shelf. I love that his studio is stacked yet very homey compared to other YTers that build out the ULTIMATE studio layout that looks straight out of the next century. It's a living room, bar, that happens to have all the top gear anyone guitarist could ever want.
Holy pants. Really cool to see what a lifetime of building a functional studio around your practice looks like. Man I want to see Gigrig Dan clean up that octopus of pedalboards.
What a great tour! I love Tim’s playing and personality! I also enjoyed seeing the iso room in the garage from inside. Maybe i should build one of those in my garage below. Hmmmm.
Building and opening a studio myself, I can relate to the Gear Acquisition Syndrome... ...It's more real right now that I am building a production studio. My wife is a saint with how well she is dealing with the mounting costs.
of all the videos I've seen of Tim's studio, I've never seen one where the camera is pulled back for a total overview. Another great video Andrew. The only thing that scares me is the power cables bunched up in a pile mainly because I've seen a fire started from the heat generated from a single extension cord left coiled up but I'm sure Tim has insurance and a fire extinguisher.
Tim Pierce is beyond underrated. I classify him with the most tasteful players ever like Gilmour or Mike Campbell. It's just hilarious I've watched his rig rundown multiple times on multiple channels and still get lost on the complexity of this amazing setup lol
Beautiful Studio, Tim! Comfort is the absolute most important element of any studio at it appears that you've nailed it. What is the chair that you are using, as it appears to be able to have the ability to go armless? Thanks!
Nice to finally have an idea how that cabroom looks like! Tim talks a lot about his mic’ed up cabs but he never showed them ;) Just wondering how the pencil mic performs when recording the low E string on an accoustic. I always have the impression they lack a bit of bass and you’re maybe better of with a bigger capsule. Or at least a mix of both.

Smoke’n!!
Tim is a wizard. His setup/gear is amazing. He can do anything. I don't think he could play a wrong note or a bad chord if he tried.

I love how he just walks around with the guitar. 😅
lol probably a comfort thing, guitarists don't know how to behave if not holding a guitar
Hides his middle aged spread 🤣
Each to his own flashy bling :)

I love how functional and ergonomic Tim's studio is. That black PRS SC is gorgeous too!
Awesome cab room! So cool to see a studio focused on guitar recording/writing. Thanks for a great tour!
When I bought my first house I did the same thing. To see if the neighbors could hear. Luckily for me they could not. Love this Tim.
Nice surprise. I clicked on the video thinking that it was a Tim Pierce video, I wasn't expecting this. Tim is one of my guitar heroes. Excellent job Andrew 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Tim is so down to earth. Great to finally see the setup behind the camera.
So many Nobels ODR-1’s in that room. Tim definitely has a favorite circuit.
I love Tim Pierce! His discography is amazing! Like you said for sure top 10 session guitarist of all time! I love how his studio is perfect for him. You should do Stu G's studio!
Love Tim
Tim is a wonderful gentleman and his respect for you, Andrew is apparent. Thank you both for sharing this amazing setup.
The LEGEND himself, Tim Pierce.
Yo that isolation box is killer.
Finally! A proper tour of Tim's studio!
I love how Tim’s entire setup is so down to earth, practical, humble, chilled, and as unpretentious as he is! What a great guy and tour. Thank you!
OMG such a great idea to tour Tim Pierce's studio!
Great work as always!

Tim seems like one of the nicest guys in the musical world. Nice video.
I always see everybody’s studio with rugs laying around. They look great but is there a special purpose like sound absorption?
All I can say is "Duuude... Awesome!" A lot of hard work put into that, Tim. Thanks guys!
Elton John & Bruce Springsteen Goooood Damn 😢😢Man's A Legend..
Total legend! Really loved the studio and tour :)
Thanks for watching Layla!
YESSIR! Love Tim. What a setup.
INCREDIBLE video, thank you on many levels (especially the level that every time my wife mentions my modest investment in my home studio I can whip this out and compare). Thank you Mr P, I've learned so much from you and this channel!
Wow Tim all them CABLES stay safe buddy would love to tidy it up for you thanks Tim when do get to relax?????
Great, now I have to build a pedal wall in my studio 😂 great episode and love his style having things hardwired and ready to roll
Great vid!
Yes Andrew! You are checking off all of my favorite TH-cam guitarists. This is amazing
I'm a big fan of Tim Pierce, so I really enjoyed this video. You did an awesome job!
Every time I see Tim that Bon Jovi solo on Runaway starts playing in my head. Awesome solo! And great video.
TIM RULES!!!
That Cab room is very ideal.
I don't know why I never thought of doing that.
I can see that in my future at some point.

I’ve seen other videos of Tim’s studio, but this is the first one to show the spaghetti of cables everywhere 🤣
Tim is such a rad dude. I watch all of his videos.
Holy pants. Really cool to see what a lifetime of building a functional studio around your practice looks like. Man I want to see Gigrig Dan clean up that octopus of pedalboards.
I like the Samsung monitor remote attached to a stand! Impossible to find those things so much of the time! 😂
Amazing video Andrew! Thanks for sharing and keep up the good work 👍
It's always great to see Tim get more exposure -- thanks.
I hit "Like" on this one as soon as I read the title.
Two of my favorite channels meet.
What a great tour! I love Tim’s playing and personality! I also enjoyed seeing the iso room in the garage from inside. Maybe i should build one of those in my garage below. Hmmmm.
Love this guy and all of his incredible work. GREAT TOUR!
This is awesome, dude
That was so cool! Nice work, Andrew
This is so old! As I’m now looking at your Trident - if I watched this year ago? It was even better this time.! 😜
Ahaaaaa....I knew I recognized you from somewhere. East West!! I used to work there all the time. FIlm/tv/records etc.
Wow! This tour of Tim's studio is one heck of a treat. Thank you.
Great insight. Thx for the great content.
Thanks for this video Andrew, this may very well be the most in depth tour of Tim’s setup. Very inspiring.
Good to know Tim will be safe with his cabs when the apocalypse hits haha.
THANKS!
Man to finally see the speaker vault, awesome guys love both channels :)
Tim is awesome. Thanks for the tour guys
Tim, uno de los más grandes guitarristas de la historia. Gentil, amable, educado, un maestro de la guitarra.

Great ture, and Tim is great as always.
Thanks for sharing!
Love Tim’s PRS necklace. Awesome setup!
This was amazing. Thank you both so much!
Now this was a good one!
This was incredible. Thanks so much!
What a great video! Tim is such a quality person and fantastic technician, in both guitar and his extensive setup! Wow. Thanks.
Beautiful Studio, Tim! Comfort is the absolute most important element of any studio at it appears that you've nailed it. What is the chair that you are using, as it appears to be able to have the ability to go armless? Thanks!
Legend! 4x12 baby!!!
so cool
Love your studio layout, especially your ISO cabinet wow!..
Designed for momentum. Genius!
Music legend!!!!
@ 20:12 He is talking about Doug Mckean. R.I.P Doug. I was fortunate enough to work at United/Ocean Way with Tim and Doug before Doug's passing.
Great vid Andrew. Yes, Tim's room has the best vibe. I actually want to live there but I don't think he'll let me.
Ok this... is.... epic.
That room with all that equipment is my idea of paradise ,
Those Ikea pedal shelves are called ELVARLI if anyone is looking for them
LEGEND!
Oh my God Tim!
You are really hitting all the stars 💪
Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeahhhhhhh
Brilliant video Guys. Thanks 👍
I was drawn to the cabinet vault.
Super Cool. Going to need to try out some flat wound strings soon.
This is amazing. Thank you!
I would love to live next to Tim. "Hey Tim, can I borrow your Ox Box and that PRS... oh, and this pedal, too?"
Incredible setup and collections. Great video!
Legend has it Tim Pierce was born with a guitar on his shoulders
Legend has it Tim Pierce’s right foot IS a wah pedal
Legend has it if you hug Tim Pierce you become a better guitarist
Legend has it Tim Pierce’s house is made out of his guitar cases; it’s 5 bedrooms, 6 bathrooms, and 3 kitchens
love that he has a guitar on him the whole tour xD
A true legend!
Hey great episode!
Oh wow thanks, Big fan of your channel!
Nice to finally have an idea how that cabroom looks like! Tim talks a lot about his mic’ed up cabs but he never showed them ;)

Tim's the GOAT
Love this video!
Marvellous video :) thank you!
