It's been a long time since an OD pedal made me just sit back and play with a big smile on my face. I went from my SG to my Junior to the Tele, and my most finicky Strat which sounded glorious through it. The modes are awesome and I absolutely love it with other pedals. Thanks for the great demo.
Interesting... but more so your playing. I love your style. Now. At some point, and I know your preference, I would be so interested for a Bugera G20 review. Many have been done but not with your style, which I love. Stay safe my friend. Living large in Sebastian Florida. Year round warmth
One of the most straight up, no BS players on Utube; Kris thinks about what constitutes played out dad and tired blues riffs, - and goes elsewhere.As in , let me play what could actually be a song part.He can lay back, or firebomb. No nonsense with the equipment; think it's a European thing to worry more about what works, vs. what your band mate will covet.We still have privileges in the States, which more often translate into a waste of thought, money, and time. What's cool? Doing your own thing ,- and that's it.Find it and follow it.
Hello Kris...Chris here, maybe if you could have a little box video below showing a closeup of your riffs So others can see where your fingers are landing on the neck of the guitar...you have such koool riffs - would Lov to see them better & im sure others would like to learn them as well..thank you Kris.:)
Very nicely done Kris. That is a sweet pedal and sounds really nice. For what it does it can also be subtle and I love that. The opening song was killer in a haunting way and I caught the "sideways" Robin Trower as well. BoS is one of my all time favs! Be well!
Thanks a lot! :) This one is really close to my heart, it does what I love and how I love it. It’s right up there with the KoT, Pantheon and co. It just gives you a different flavor and features. Which are really impressive by the way to be honest. Take care!
Damn, back watching this again, and this is just a damn finding sounding pedal! Plus the 5 types gives it so much more value than the one trick poniy drive pedals.
Haha! Sorry mate, companies are faster than our wallets unfortunately. The Ages is very different though, it’s nothing like the Fat Bee. So the question is: which sound inspires you more. Go for that pedal first, that’s probably gonna be the right one. Cheers
Though you're asking a lot in trying to narrow it down to one video because I've liked so many, I really loved the shootout amongst all those fantastic overdrives, and how at the end, you broke them down into categories at which they excelled. It's too easy and a bit slavish to just say they're all great because it would make them out to all be exactly the same, right?
Being in and from Oklahoma, I have such a soft spot for Oklahoma companies even more so with Walrus. Yeah I’m a fan boy but they aren’t afraid to do something different. When everything seems done to death they will do something from left field. This pedal is one, might take some time to really learn to use, because it seems so versatile and different. Love your playing as usual, and the way you break it down. Love all your videos, but is it getting close to time to hot rod something? Lol. I loved the shell pink over burst bass. Would love to see a relic’d big flake sparkle on a Junior. Just a though. Much love from Tulsa brother.
Hi Kris. I have this question: as it have this 2 band eq (bass and treble) it looks like a transparent overdrive, but listening to your playing, the pedal seems to be like a mid range-ish overdrive. So, in your experience, does it boost the mids or is it transparent? Thanks!!
Nice Demo Kris! I was wondering if you would do a Demo and Review of the NUX Cerberus Multi-Effects Pedal Board please? I would Love to see and hear your opinion on it. Thank You.
Thanks Michael! Yes absolutely! (edit)In mode 1 with rolled back bass and treble you’ll get that famous „green pedal tone“. This one covers a lot of tonal ground. Cheers
Kris I will watch this later thanks as always for uploading.small fire in.my house this morning.got drier into garden.quick..all good... this family.thing always gets in the way of guitar time lol Said that to.my wife as a joke that was received.... Badly.. :-?
@@KrisBarocsi Kris it's funny now it was underwear so.its "Hot pants!" wall.cleamed and primed floor tiles replaced so.all good. Thanks for the reply it helped turn it from disaster to.lsughing!
I love it! I’ve never tried a Revv amp, how do you think this pedal will sound on a Marshall style amp (I’m using an Origin 50). Great demo, as always, horns up for you!
The Origin 50 is very good with pedals so I’m sure the Ages will have a similar sound to what you hear in my video. My Revv has more lower midrange and bass than most Marshalls but that’s not an issue thanks to the bass knob on the Ages. I’m very impressed by it to be honest. Cheers!
Woahh super hard question man. They are so different. The G2 sounds way more like an amp (british chunky gain character) and the Ages reminds me of my King of Tone (Blues Breaker pedal type character). I love both a lot and use them for very different sounds. If I HAD to choose I think I'd go for the G2 but only because I have a King of Tone for the Ages-type sounds already.
Well if getting the pedal for my work is paid promotion (which technically is) then yes. This doesn’t change the fact that the Ages is very impressive though. Haha! If you check out my channel you’ll see that I don’t demo every new gear. I’m very selective and only shoot videos for gear that I personally find awesome. I know that might sound selfish but this way I can always be honest about the „test subjects“ and only show stuff I would buy for myself. Cheers man!
That has to be the manliest thing anyone ever told. Haha! Fair enough. For me, guitar playing wouldn’t make a lot of sense without overdrives. And that’s cool man, everyone’s different. Take care buddy!

Love the sound, and really like the art/style... like, a lot.
Thanks for the demo, Kris. Spectacular playing, as per usual.

Sounds outstanding

Damn, back watching this again, and this is just a damn finding sounding pedal! Plus the 5 types gives it so much more value than the one trick poniy drive pedals.
Well done Broseph; playing and tones were top notch.
From 9:38, sounded amazing! Loved the phraser!
Here's a link if you wanna check out the Ages for yourself: bit.ly/37562Yw
Enjoy the video! Cheers!
Nice playing. I had no idea this pedal was out, and there's already two used ones on Reverb.
Damn...that beginning loop jam sounds alot like the tragically hip’s pigeon camera...great song and great vid kris!!!!
Another great overdrive? I did not spare enough for Lark or Fat bee and now you are teasing with another great product :D
Haha! Sorry mate, companies are faster than our wallets unfortunately. The Ages is very different though, it’s nothing like the Fat Bee. So the question is: which sound inspires you more. Go for that pedal first, that’s probably gonna be the right one. Cheers
@@KrisBarocsi the dry mix and very fair price are huge selling point for this one.

Cool intro and a very very interesting pedal!!! New haircut btw?! It's getting summer... ;-)
Great review!!!!!!...... nice job!

Grandes Guitarristas hey, it does boost the midrange, yes. But in a really cool way, not nearly as much as a tube screamer or aboss overdrive. Cheers
Thanks@@KrisBarocsi! Your answer was very usefull. I appreciate it very much!
Penta mode pachyderm punchin ya preamp proper 🤘🏽
But will they come out with a five way fuzz called the Mastodon?
Haha! Yeah they probably will. 😂
Nice Demo Kris! I was wondering if you would do a Demo and Review of the NUX Cerberus Multi-Effects Pedal Board please? I would Love to see and hear your opinion on it. Thank You.
1:55 🙈
Awesome intro! Thanks for that presentation Kris, 👍🏼really awesome Pedal! Any idea how big of a dent the ages will leave in the wallet?
Thanks a lot! :) I’m sure it will cost around the same as all other Walrus drive pedals (which is around 200€ at Thomann). Cheers buddy
Super Video! Ich schau dir gerne beim jamen zu 🤘🏻 wäre schön wenn du mal ne lesson über dein Songwriting machen könntest 😊
Hello Kris, great review as alaways👍👍. If we turn down treble and bass, can we create a mid hump ? Thanks✌️
Thanks Michael! Yes absolutely! (edit)In mode 1 with rolled back bass and treble you’ll get that famous „green pedal tone“. This one covers a lot of tonal ground. Cheers
Kris Barocsi 😁👍👍🤘
Or , -
We could use the pedals unique features so it dosen't sound like another TS, Klon, or Bluesbreaker .
Kris I will watch this later thanks as always for uploading.small fire in.my house this morning.got drier into garden.quick..all good... this family.thing always gets in the way of guitar time lol
Said that to.my wife as a joke that was received.... Badly.. :-?

Sounds killer Kris! As always of course, what is the price for the pedal? Keep safe and keep rockin!
Hey man, thanks a lot! Check out my pinned comment for the price. Cheers!
Kris, Revv G2 or Walrus Ages?
Woahh super hard question man. They are so different. The G2 sounds way more like an amp (british chunky gain character) and the Ages reminds me of my King of Tone (Blues Breaker pedal type character). I love both a lot and use them for very different sounds. If I HAD to choose I think I'd go for the G2 but only because I have a King of Tone for the Ages-type sounds already.
Jeez that’s some great playing. I’m guessing all the videos on this pedal are paid promotions since they all released at the same time?
Well if getting the pedal for my work is paid promotion (which technically is) then yes. This doesn’t change the fact that the Ages is very impressive though. Haha!
If you check out my channel you’ll see that I don’t demo every new gear. I’m very selective and only shoot videos for gear that I personally find awesome. I know that might sound selfish but this way I can always be honest about the „test subjects“ and only show stuff I would buy for myself. Cheers man!
Kris Barocsi that’s awesome Kris. Love the videos!
Love everything, but the graphic on the pedal.
Nuthin' wrong with elephants,- I dig.
I bought the pedal and can't hear a difference between the modes at all
the only overdrive I use is in my 4x4 vehicle
That has to be the manliest thing anyone ever told. Haha! Fair enough. For me, guitar playing wouldn’t make a lot of sense without overdrives. And that’s cool man, everyone’s different. Take care buddy!
sounds chalky and square and "within a box" not open at all. no bueno. edgy cool graphics but just another meh overdrive
Love everything, but the graphic on the pedal.
