We dig all the Octavia playing,nice start to a killer video--cheers Edit: got me to pondering...still despising my own youthful ignorance,as I saw Stevie play twice in one day(with Jimmie and The Thunderbirds) and could not understand his rig set-up,even from mere feet away. He had all these cabinets surrounded by a plexiglass "box" with a mic inside--I could see a rotary speaker spinning. He intro'd with Say Wah with two wah pedals. I knew nothing,I played thru single tube amp/4-10 cab with reverb and used a wah and a distortion pedal. We did chat w Stevie before the second show--he was riding a motorized skateboard all around their bus and hotel parking lot,which blew our minds. Feb,1986
You have got great videos bud.. it almost feels like we are in the shed with you hanging and talking.. the substance and style that you make them in is perfect for us "nerdy" types.. you explain and show us at the same time👍🏻.. thank you for making them.. please never stop !! Hope all is well 🙏🏻🔥🎸🔥🎸🔥🙏🏻
Just what I needed today! Leave My Girl Alone was the first song I really learned to play and sound halfway decent when I was first learning, so brought back alot of memories! Beautiful playing, man, and thanks for enlightening us on the fuzz secrets!
Cheers Nik brilliant video. I think Stevie Ray's sound in the late 1980s was definitely more him using a fuzz face to achieve his tone. I understand form reading about his rig that the Marshall major wasn't really used it was more for looks. The main engine of his tone was still the cranked fenders and Dumble amp EV speakers with the fuzz. I didn't catch what fuzz you were using in this video Nik but I'm looking into a pedal Pawn fuzz myself. Those guys seem to have a real pilgrimage going on with the SRV stuff.
Cool vid Nik, always helpful! Working with a FuzzFace really is something to master all in itself from setup (especially the ones with more output) to controlling it! The modded ones with input impedance controls are really useful allowing you to turn your guitar volume at 10 to be at say at 9.x ish. I think that makes life a bit easier for certain situations, it seems to also make the guitar volume control more linear in response - those of us with clumsy strumming hands or loose pots can appreciate that!! Have you played around with a BoG style fuzz (3 transistor), very different feel but incredibly versatile!
I always see ext. cords in the background. Are you in construction? I am. Just curious. Your playing and knowledge is great. Been playing since 91 and definitely vibe with you and your playing. Cheers@
In the ‘89 video you can see his Dumble Steel String Singer and his Marshall Major. I don’t think there were any Bassman reissues. Maybe he did, can you link me a resource or pic. Thanks man, I’d love to learn something new.
@@theriffwniksevigny5473 In one of your other more recent videos you made mention of changing up your board. Just curious to see how it all went and what made the cut. 👍🏻 Have a good one!
@@rtbemt no idea. Its two knobs. Ill get the volume set so it just provides a little lift over my straight in volume, and then ill just use my guitar volume knob to gauge the amount of dirt i want
Do you have any experience with those new Mini Fuzz Faces? I know they make a silicone and germanium. Are either of them at all close to the real thing?
Hey Nik important question: have you tried the 2022/2023 version of the kingtone duellist? With the "SRV" mod. I'd love to hear what you think about it because I'm considering buying a duellist and I would like your input on the differences between the regular one and the "new version"
Phenomenal playing, thank you for the tips and lessons, would you think the King Tone Mini Fuzz will do the same? Controlling from the guitar? I’m saving up to get one.

Well said
When u launched into Voodoo it brought tears to my eyes drivin down the road. Excessively beautiful tone man. Thanks🎉

Not a big SRV fan but love your videos nonetheless! Keep up the good work!
God dam, that tone and the playing, theres quite a few people play SRV, but Nik you realy really play SRV.
Killer tone !! Killer playing!!

Incredible mate !

Hahah why did you apologize for the Octavia at the beginning? Made me chuckle because I enjoyed it quite a bit. Cheers
Killing it, again. Loving the tones.
Awesome vid 🔥🎸

Sensational tone!!!
I did enjoy it and yes you are very entertaining
Love!!
I always see ext. cords in the background.
Are you in construction?
I am. Just curious.
Your playing and knowledge is great.
Been playing since 91 and definitely vibe with you and your playing. Cheers@
I just have to plug stuff in.. thanks for checking out the vids. I appreciate it!!!
I think I remember SRV used a couple re-issue Bassman amps as well for Austin City Limits.
In the ‘89 video you can see his Dumble Steel String Singer and his Marshall Major. I don’t think there were any Bassman reissues. Maybe he did, can you link me a resource or pic. Thanks man, I’d love to learn something new.
In ‘83 he was using Super Reverbs and Vibroverbs. Idk even think there were Bassman Reissues when he was alive. I could be wrong though.
15k subs!!!! Let's go
Killer stuff, thank you!
New pedalboard video still coming?
Sure. Dont really change much but ill do something
@@theriffwniksevigny5473 In one of your other more recent videos you made mention of changing up your board. Just curious to see how it all went and what made the cut. 👍🏻
Have a good one!
Thank you!!
Great video explaining this tone.... Always been my favorite!!! Which fuzz face were you using and what were the settings on that pedal?
Dominion fuzz. Silicon
@@theriffwniksevigny5473 cool thanks for info what are the actual settings you're using on the pedal.
@@rtbemt no idea. Its two knobs. Ill get the volume set so it just provides a little lift over my straight in volume, and then ill just use my guitar volume knob to gauge the amount of dirt i want
That Albert king tone was gnarly. What fuzz are you using for this video???
Do you have any experience with those new Mini Fuzz Faces? I know they make a silicone and germanium. Are either of them at all close to the real thing?
They can work. Great little fuzz pedals. Tune em in to your setup

hey! great tone and playing! would you choose pedal pawn or the new minifuzz v2 ? thank you
Im a fan of both but for an all around the kingtone has many uses
@@theriffwniksevigny5473 thank you!!
Phenomenal playing, thank you for the tips and lessons, would you think the King Tone Mini Fuzz will do the same? Controlling from the guitar? I’m saving up to get one.
Yes. 100%
I don’t really like the Austin City limits tone, not sure why people go crazy over that. His ‘90 live tone is the best he ever got though.
Its all legendary, but im an 83-85 fan myself!
Cool , you Need check out VIVIEN VERDIER on youtube , SRV , PHILLIP SAYCE. TONE MONSTER , great player from France . Peace
He is a great friend
@@theriffwniksevigny5473 I always tell him Im not buying that he lived in France, Im sure he lives in Texas! 🤘🏼
What's the radius of the neck
How can I get a tone like that?
Strat and a fuzz with a slightly broken up amp with reverb
Hot Tubes link?
