Been seeing a lot of the "roast your tone/song/playing" videos on guitar YT recently. The legitimate constructive criticism and just overall positive vibe with these people's art was like a breath of fresh air
Correction it’s rate or roast. Not just roast so don’t play on words just to suit your point. And the overwhelming majority of the rigs get rated not roasted and is widely positive so stop it kid. We all watch the same content.
I really appreciate this type of content, Rhett -- constructive criticism from an accomplished musician helps everyone learn. Novices like me often don't know what we don't know and videos like this shine spotlights on new (to us) techniques, styles, etc...
@@nickk8650 Thats an awesome point Nick! How many albums would you rate as your favourite by an artist and its their first? By the same token though, a new artist is probably going to be given an inexperienced producer to cut their first album.... and even then, magic still happens. 😊
@@nickk8650 Nah that's a definite preference that depends on the person. The punk or lofi production thing is popular in some circles and not in others. Personally I enjoy it sometimes but I love lush production other days, just depends
@@CatmanJimbo Right. They're just two different things. The raw energy and attitude of punk is a beautiful thing, but so is the product of John Frusciante locking himself in the studio for a few days.
Just slap that mic in front of anything and it sounds pretty good. My friend that knows stuff told me to use a cloud lifter with it so it isn’t so noisy, so I do. Great mic if you don’t wanna have to tinker with anything. Less mic tinker time and more time to play guitar!
So, I was thinking “this is pretty cool… maybe I should think about submitting something?” And then around 5 seconds into Brady’s playing I was thinking “yeah… ok… maybe not then!” That was soooooo good 🥰
To be honest, I'd rather hear more shitty tone and shitty playing to get some actual criticism than very experienced players just looking to show off their skills.
Hey David. Submit stuff! There is always like some 10 year old kid in some country that can mop the floor with all of us. Don't let that hold you back!
@ghost mall don’t compare bro. Somewhere in the world there is always some freak of nature that can shred...at like 4 years old. The internet puts them in front of our faces. The rest of us (the majority of us) are mere mortals.
This is a brilliant idea! Would love for you to make a series, as it’s fun to see a pro musician’s take but it’s also fun to just hear what other people have going on. Definitely got some ideas from these clips on different sounds and playing styles to implement Going forward, maybe request that they do a quick rundown of the stuff they used? Pedals, amps, etc?
This is/was a great idea to do Rhett. All kinds of styles and technique. Most guitarists appreciate the efforts of others. May try and submit something for evaluation!
This was a fun idea. Some really great playing! If any of these people have TH-cam channels, you should link them! The only thing you missed on is the title of the video. You totally should have called it “Rhett My Tone.” I give this video 9/10 denim jackets 😆
It's always surprising to see how many talented people are not only interested in, but also actually playing music. It's exciting. It's a good series you're starting there. Personally, I would never dare submit. So I admire the confidence of all these people. It's amazing.
I love that you're helping these people out and not just roasting them like so many other people that do this format. That just says a lot about the kind of person you are, that you want to help them and love to contribute and lift people up. Keep doing what you do.
I loved how you looked at all the positives and lifted these guys up! What some great players and you nailed the critiques. Great job to the players and to you!
I love this type of criticism. It allows musicians from all types of genres to share knowledge and pass on very important information regarding, not only tone, but other important information that makes each and every one of us better performers/musicians. Keep up the wonderful work you do!
These are the kind of submission results I like. There is a variety of different playing and recording levels. From a live performer with someone filming, to high quality video and audio recording, to someone with just a webcam pointed at them, and limited audio recording. I wish I knew about it, but I like it more than the ones that just show the players with the best equipment and access to record a music video.
I love this idea! Thought all the players did a great. Excellent comments on each of the videos. Would love to see more of this, and maybe one day I will get the courage to submit something.
Yes, yes please do more of these! Hearing your thoughts on tone against practical applications really brings a lot of what you have to say into a more understandable context. My favorite video of yours in a long time.
Love your channel Rhett! Gilmore is one of my biggest heroes. I read an article where Gilmour says that he actually used a Les Paul with P-90's for the solo in Another brick in the wall which is imo one of the best solos ever played. The same guitar is used for "On an island". All the best! //Pontus
Hi Rhett..I think u have discovered a new angle to approach your channel content...this is real time everyday people looking to a professional for opinions and tips to improve tone and playing guitar in general...I really enjoyed it and I think this could take off for you... nicely done.. refreshing honesty and kind words really affects us all..ty man.. nice job..good work
Rhett this was a fantastic session. There’s so much to be learned from listening to you break down a given tone and playing style. I appreciate how you quickly cut to the chase, offer constructive criticism, and above give praise where praise is due. I congratulate the players who submitted videos. Wow. Your channel continues to evolve; it gets better and better. I say do more of these videos. Sp
I am working while listening to this, when that guy with the strat started ripping the blues, I got goosebumps, I immediately had to see him. Reminded me so much of SRV. Fantastic player!
@@IanBennettGuitar Sorry I didn't know you are Ian with an "I". Really enjoyed your performance and I seriously hope you record and post more stuff on TH-cam.
@@RhettShull BTW sorry for not including any background info, your analysis was pretty spot on. It was a lawsuit era Ventura ES175 copy through an HX Stomp. I recorded it just after I got the guitar back from having a re-fret and having the stock pickups swapped out for some Gibson 57 classics that were sitting in the closet unused.
Good idea for a series Rhett! I'm constantly amazed at the level of talent thats out there. It takes a lot of courage to submit to a critique like this so kudos to all these players. Your tone and playing insights are spot on. Great job.
This is such a great idea! As somebody who's just started to learn about electric guitars, I found it super helpful because I heard a bunch of new terms (that I need to Google). Props to everyone who submitted!
I am 57 years old and Rhett, you are my favorite guitar instructor! I have been following your channel since you pretty much started and only had 30.000 subscribers. Enjoyed the journey with you all the way!
Love this series and what you’re doing here! Absolutely perfect idea. I really appreciate your honest critiques Rhett. I think it means a lot for all of us as guitar players and enthusiasts.
I think you hit an interactive way to engage your subscribers and give up valuable advice from your experience. Because it is so positive; it sets yourself up as being very different than the usual negativity. I give it 10 out of 10 Beatos.
@@IanBennettGuitar Indeed man nice chops Glad to see playing instead of pedal wash .......which has its place of course Rhett was on point tho about delay on the fast playing Still sounded good though I keep my echo level pretty low Someone makes a tremolo and delay that the level stays down when playing and becomes more present in the space I use a Lovepedal EPH3 that's is a pretty good Schooled clone Very cool have a good weekend
This is my first comment although I've been watching for a while. Please do more of these, and, thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience with us. :)
Great concept - I really enjoyed it! People did really good, and it's great to see what other players are coming up with! Your tips and opinions are great too, and I'm sure we can all learn a lot from it - so please do keep this concept going! Have a great weekend!
Well done! Your perspective on the audio clips provided useful insight. The variety of styles in the video demonstrate the range of your community. Music brings people together.
Great stuff, Rhett! Every now and then we need to be reminded that ALL GUITAR PLAYING IS BEAUTIFUL! Whether it's a seasoned pro or a beginner 8 year old banging on an A power chord through a solid state amp with a 6 inch speaker, IT'S ALL BEAUTIFUL!
Hey Rhett, thank you for doing this and giving anyone who wants to send a vid in a chance, from all different levels/styles and settings. A really constructive fun thing to do. Really appreciate it.
Very nice. It takes some confidence to even send in a video, so I'd say awesome job to all these guys! Great critiques on your part as well Rhett! You definitely understand tone and what kind of tone is appropriate for what you are trying to convey. Very good points about digging in deeper with a heavier touch on that Gilmour brick in the wall part 2 solo.
Sooo money on your critiques Rhett! And a lot of fantastic playing in the video. We are all so unique in our styles. It’s nice how u can compartmentalize everyones uniqueness
Love this video idea! I saw the email and was so excited for this video to come out! Props to everyone who submitted. I know I was too scared to submit anything 😂 definitely make this a series
Massive shout out to all the dudes who put up their vids for this, you all got a lot more bottle than me and the playing was great. I thought Rhett's commentary was very illuminating and I'd like to hear more like this, assuming Rhett can get further lambs, braver lambs than me you understand, to volunteer for the slaughter :)
Rhett, as a new subscriber I am impressed (blown away) with your expertise and focus in getting to the heart of TONE. I loved hearing the various submissions and your excellent and constructive feedback. Your critiques are spot on and with each player you highlight what each player could do to make their tone even better. I would be so intimidated to send in one my tunes but I love to learn and explore what others are doing. I think you've hit on something really solid with this Submit Your Tone - keep doing it.
Rhett - 5 👍 thumbs up out of 5!!! Outstanding idea and you did a magnificent job of critiquing these players. You really know what to look for and you are generous and fair in scoring. I hope you do it again and soon!
Dude playing Midnight special, Rhett, not all of us can bring a guitar in standard, a back up, and a guitar tuned to Open D, or even any Open tuning. If I'm bringing any open tuning guitar its tuned to Open E. Now, I did come across a hybrid Open G tuning that I picked up from Bryan Bassett from Foghat. Simply tune the 1st string to D and you basically have an Open G with your 5th and 6th string allowing you to access standard tuning power chords. Now, my tone...that's another story. Thank God for my Blues Driver and my Boss EQ. I think...
I’m a big fan of the boss eq. One of my mates has a blues driver, I think I know what you mean he gets some awesome tones out of that using my guitar and amp!
Brady is absolutely trained in classical guitar. I'm trained in classical too so that's how I recognize that. Great arrangement. I'd be curious to see where he found that or if he wrote that.
Hey Matthew. Just made it up looking at a leadsheet. Yes! I was a classical guitar Suzuki method kid. Now I work in computers haha. Gig on the side etc. Toured in bands for a couple years but then sold my soul for a 401k etc.
Great idea having listeners engaging more closely with your channel. Really like your supportive suggestions to the submissions, this is good teaching. Great stuff Rhett really enjoy your videos :)
Kudos to all those brave enough to submit an entry. It is amazing how much musical talent is out there that won't end up on a recording. I worked in the Nashville music scene for several years and was always amazed at the players out there that couldn't get a gig playing live or studio. The tones were great as well.
A great idea to make music of unknown musicians hear for the rest of the world - so, no matter how Rhett scores them - it´s absolut interessting to hear. More information about their equipment would be cool. More of that!
I was gonna mention the same thing. And it was also run direct into the mixing board, gated and compressed, and then run back out to a mic’ed Mesa Mark I. I owned one of those amps for 20 years and I can tell you it’s an absolute beast in both tone and volume. Weighs a ton, though- especially for just a single-speaker combo.

Been seeing a lot of the "roast your tone/song/playing" videos on guitar YT recently. The legitimate constructive criticism and just overall positive vibe with these people's art was like a breath of fresh air
Definitely, already way too much negativity in TH-cam comments.
Reminds me of Adam Neely's series that started out as "how to not suck at music" but has since been reframed it into a more positive version of that.
Correction it’s rate or roast. Not just roast so don’t play on words just to suit your point. And the overwhelming majority of the rigs get rated not roasted and is widely positive so stop it kid. We all watch the same content.
100%! I knew Rhett would be constructive and this will actually help out a lot of people rather than just make them feel inferior.
I was pleasantly surprised. There's hope after all...
Blues guy here! Thanks so much for reviewing my tone! Definitely gonna cut back that delay! And thank you for doing this type of video!
Great playing man!
Thanks bro!
Killing it bro! You blues dudes rock.
Ian you ripped man. That was awesome. Are you a Nashville guy? Whats your set up?
@@dubzga yes sir! In this video I’m using my Squier hardtail strat w/fender replacement neck, mxr Timmy mini, boss dd3, and katana artist.
I really appreciate this type of content, Rhett -- constructive criticism from an accomplished musician helps everyone learn. Novices like me often don't know what we don't know and videos like this shine spotlights on new (to us) techniques, styles, etc...

Agree, Rhett's a class act!
More proof talent is everywhere! Great work guys.
Also, such a cool idea for a video.
On the flip side, it's more validation that I am, in fact, trash.
@@Smitty_Werbenjagermanjenson LOL I was having the same emotion!
Hey o! Beauty and the Beast guy here. Thanks for checking out my tone! Means a lot.
I dig it, Man!
The Beauty and the Beast rendition is beautiful. He made his steel string sound really warm, so lovely
You should check out Kent Nishimura's rendition of Beauty of the Beast. Its amazing.
Really an outstanding video series Rhett.
That acoustic guitar was recorded with an SM7!? What an absolute legend.
One of the goat mic’s!
Just slap that mic in front of anything and it sounds pretty good. My friend that knows stuff told me to use a cloud lifter with it so it isn’t so noisy, so I do. Great mic if you don’t wanna have to tinker with anything. Less mic tinker time and more time to play guitar!
@@bradybills134 its a great drum mic too. i use it as an overhead pretty frequently
@@willderr1469 recorded an excellent album with two SM7s for overheads, X/Y
Never ceases to amaze me how many terrific musicians there are out there. This video is another reminder. Kudos to all who submitted!

A great idea to make music of unknown musicians hear for the rest of the world - so, no matter how Rhett scores them - it´s absolut interessting to hear. More information about their equipment would be cool. More of that!
Brick on the wall solo was played on a les paul, not a strat! (I liked Daniel's playing btw)
You are correct, according to Gilmour himself
I thought it sounds a bit off time and the bends weren't done right but yeah kudos to him for submitting
With goldtop with P90s.
Yep! I covered this in my “what is the p90 sound?” Video
I was gonna mention the same thing. And it was also run direct into the mixing board, gated and compressed, and then run back out to a mic’ed Mesa Mark I. I owned one of those amps for 20 years and I can tell you it’s an absolute beast in both tone and volume. Weighs a ton, though- especially for just a single-speaker combo.
You should DEFINITELY do more of these!!!
Great to see so many exercising their talent. Well done, all.
