I love your parts! love your song! wow that's a great pedal...
That reverb really makes Petes parts stand out!
Hey Tim! Thanks man! Miss you
The tone at 5:13 is without a doubt, the nicest dirty sound I've heard in years. THAT is an inspiring sound!
1:14-1:42 is one of the best lead tones I've ever heard - EVER!!
Great job on the part giving a tour of the pedal! You really made it justice :) Will be exciting to see the board you build with it!
I like your summary at the end, Pete! Thanks for talking about what counts.
Can't wait to watch!
That sounds really beautiful- I learn so much about the equipment and how to use it from you. What an excellent pedal!
When my mind is hungry, I just come to Pete Thorn's channel for the tastiest mix of playing and tones on the 'Tube!!!
Pete Thorn's Playing Soup... mmm mmmm good...
What a pedal! Wow!!! I love it!!! Top-quality sound beyond any reverb pedals I've ever heard!!!
Sweet Christmas! Pete, your playing in this video is especially inspired. I'm in awe!
Thanks Mark!
These pedals both sound amazing Pete.
Quality demo as always.
Thanks, Pete. Always a treat!
King of reverb prices for sure..
And yet, a bargain compared to a vintage 224... no doubt it’s not cheap though. I still love it. In the 80s we wouldn’t have even blinked. Things were just more money then - H 3000, 2290 etc You paid for what you got
@@PeteThorn oh I love it too haha.. my wife doesn't like my guitar spending habits
@@PeteThorn I keep the UAD Lexi 224 in Aux 1 of the Apollo Console at all times!
Steve Via complimented you once by saying "You're doing great things " . I could not agree more !!
Killer stuff Mr. Thorn !!!
Love how you brought the track in 🔥
Really dig the wardrobe changes on this one Pete! With regards to the pedals - my wife would kill me.
Wow. Was expecting just another Reverd but that thing sounds great. Great playing of course also.
Always love your demos Pete! I'm loving this unit and rad song too! Still hoping to hear a Nightsky demo one of these days... :)
When I need to hear what good guitar playing sounds like I come here. Talent and musicality and fun in one package
Thank u!!!
Thank u!!!
That intro was AWESOME, fab review Pete
You sir are the most creative guitarist on YT!
Managed to buy one of these today Pete very lucky I know, your vids have inspired me so much, Chase Bliss have certainly raised the bar here, a stunning pedal indeed. With an equally great demo, cheers Dude hope to see you in the UK soon 🤘
Total dream machine! Sounds amazing!
Ok Pete go off on this intro! Very different, but I love it.
Thank You Pete !!! 👍🏻
It’s a nice pedal, my Eventide Space does sound very similar.
Nice demo, and great guitar stuff 🍻
That's the best sounding Reverb that I have ever heard! I play bass, I have the Automatone MKii, the CXM 1978 would be a nice addition.
The last solo in the intro was great!!! Very fun and unique.
King reverb for king of players that you're Pete.
Great playing Mr. T, I like your less talk and more tones style! I can't wait to demo this for myself.
Honestly.. I love the songs you come up with for the demos. This one is awesome. :-)
Thanks!
Don't know which sounds better .. the pedal .. or the riffs. Amazing!
Just a phenomenal guitar player. Mr. Pete Thorn. . . all class too !!!
Pete you played some great stuff with that pedal.
You're a wonderful musician, Peter.
Thank you very much!
That Suhr is sleek looking. Looks very similar to my EBMM Cutlass! Great video as always Pete!
Great video, as always!!
Some spots made me think I was IN the room. Those tasty tones and reverb displaced me. Well done!
That blue Suhr almost stealed the show ;-)
Great video and sound for that pedal. Thanks. 🤙
I'm a sucker for a Strat in Lake Placid Blue, so I must say I love your Suhr.
Dude... that intro.... crazy awesomeness!!!!
Such a great player. Great taste and execution of parts. Cool pedal
Thanks!
Man you got some great chops!
The song reminds me of Big Wreck. Love the Suhr! Some amazing reverbs in that pedal.
I'm with Tim , really creative ideas Pete ,nice job
Well! This gave my Strymon BigSky a run for its money! I love the hands-on approach to sculpting the effect on the fly. The excellent playing also helped a lot in demoing this superb little (well not so little) magic box! Thanks for sharing!
The strymon is a great pedal but this one is on another level entirely ......
Superb riffs!
Chase Bliss! The name says it all. Nice demo Pete!!
What a reverb. Someday perhaps...we all must dream.
Those Bliss audio pedals are super boutique and really nice! That EQ especially! I have a Mesa EQ and love it but would buy that one if I didnt!
Pete that some beautiful playing... just beautiful.
Thanks!
That pedal sounds really badass and man the collaboration between CB and Meris is icing on the cake. I’d love to get one eventually but at that price I’m sure out. Really cool pedal though and I’m sure it’s worth the money.
Also got to say thats my favourite strat of yours, Pete. Gorgeous roasted neck. I really like the vibe of this track too! Some Chris Cornell influence and I'm here for it.
I think your playing is great when you venture into those territories
It is for me since is the Vangelis Blade Runner reverb clone in a box. Man I love your playin'.
Killer intro Pete 👌🤘
the frame of u playin is my ''box'' of inspiration
love love loved. your playing here
Thanks!!
Love the neck on that suhr strat
Pete your the shit dude, I’m trying to reframe from my pedal buying addiction so watching this is tempting but your the shit
one of the best intros ever.
That lick at the very end of your intro jam was brilliant
Thanks!
Love the China Girl-esque opening. My first encounter with SRV though I didn't know it at the time.
Really interested in this company. Seems super forward thinking. The idea of having a programmable preamp with eq is amazing to me. I try to balance my different guitars by having different tone shaping pedals in front of the amp (chandler, boosters, treble boosters etc)
But to have a midi switchable pedal that can compensate for each of your guitars, even add an extra boost here and there for different sections - just amazing.
Awesome stuff! Just got one and can't wait to experiment. What overdrive was used on the very cool guitar solo?
Cheers from Boyle Street Edmonton
5:14 reminds me of Chris Poland! Love that style of soloing
Hey Pete this time great outside solo lines, like it.
Thanks!
Great demo… Trying to decide between the CMX & UA Golden.
Any thoughts you can share?
Damn that might be my favorite sounding reverb pedal I've heard, just wish I could justify spending 1200 cad on it haha
Finally a studio quality reverb in pedal format that doesn’t just focus on spacey, infinite, noise making tones. If we could just get IK Media to release a pedal version of their Sunset Sound Reverb plug in, we’d really be in business.
Another solid demo, Pete. I bit the bullet and ordered one of each. Should arrive this weekend. I’d love an update on your use of these, if still applicable. Thanks man 🤙
I could only just afford one but can’t decide between the two, I do have an even tide space so perhaps that answers the questio but just interested which you would keep if you could only have one. Does it blow the space out the window? Which do you use most?
@@eyesintheskies The reverb unit tends to be way too strong, a huge, ambient sort of ‘verb, so I usually bring the mix down to almost nothing, just to get a hint of it. That said, I’ve been using it more than the MkII lately. I’m also playing it in sterile conditions at home, so the mix would probably go higher in a live gig context. Until recently, however, the MkII would have been the automatic answer to your question, as it really is a great and widely capable device. But recently I got a Kernom Ridge (which I had to try for a while) and then most recently have spent most of my time building and testing my own circuit boards (boost, overdrives, fuzzes, etc.). So I guess it’s the wrong time to ask me this question 🤓 If reverb is your thing, the 1978 is truly special. However, if overdrive (and into fuzz territory) is what you like most (and you already have a decent reverb unit), you should be able to find a gently used MkII for a significant discount. If you decide to go for the reverb unit, you could try substituting a Benson Preamp for the MkII and see how that goes. Sorry for the lengthy response. I wanted to give you a thorough answer. 🤙
My man u makin up scales on the fly lol gg
Wonder how it would hold up next to a Lexicon pcm. I have a pcm92, which can do 4 mono reverbs or 2 stereo... The immediacy and ease of use on the 1978 Bliss looks amazing... Hope to hear on Vocals and studio mixdown situations.
Great review and great pedal, however my youngest sons invisalign takes precedent. Maybe next year?
Super cool verb pedal. Granted I have no gigs booked, but would you feel like that would hold up on a board, in and out of travel cases and on the road? Serious question. Thanks.
I‘m so glad I don‘t own this - I would use way too much reverb! ;)
Great tones and awesome playing - probably my favorite stuff I heard from you!
Thanks!
Love that new blue Suhr S type! Amazing demo! Love the multi use of how to use this pedal. Truly amazing how they’ve nailed this! Quick question on Pre-delay is there a way to “calculate “ how much pre-delay you need or do you just do what sounds good to make sure the from of the note is there depending on the part being played before the verb kicks in.
Generally I just go by what sounds good sometimes it’s rhythmic or sometimes it’s just separating the reverb a little bit from the dry guitar so that it doesn’t get too washed out. Sometimes no pre-delay is cool
YOU DA MAN PETE!!😉
Well this one's going over on the CRS fan page mate!😊👍
Oh cool!
Dude... I’m not even listening with headphones, but this reverb pedal blooms through my crappy phone speakers. 🤣🤣
Pete what kind of Pickups do you have in that Suhr? Love the playing and tones!
Keep using a strat. Gorgeous suhr. Sounds are huge. Best video on the cxm right now because you actually play the pedal and not solely focus on long to infinite decay for ambient sounds. It would be great to hear more, spend more time on the hall algorithm in shorter decay times. Thanks for the work.
Genuine question, would you use this live? I love mine but am having a hard time going through presets live because some of the arcade buttons will kill the reverb buffer and stop all reverb :(
It sounds too good though so I'm trying to figure out a way to make it work.
As always, love your video!
Yes! Yeah you can’t change certain things without stopping the spill over but you can map things to expression pedal and change that way to morph sounds. Sure I would use it live, I’m going to make a board with this and the preamp. An analog delay, and a compressor and a simple switcher… Maybe one mod box possibly the new UA.
Somebody get one for Pierce so we can see him go to town on it!
OMG that sounds ridiculous!
Really sweet. My question would be: if you were to run that into a fully cranked Superlead, or the like, would you run it in front or through a send/return on the back? Either way, it would seem, you're not going to get the overdriven, tube-saturated, power section ever before the reverb, which I think would be best. The send/return would be preamp, smaller tube section making for reverb first, OD second; on the floor, in front, it would obviously be reverb first, overdrive tube section next on a cranked Plexi. Which would seem to be the optimal chain, overdrive before reverb. Sounds great direct, but live? Through a tube driven soaked power amp section? Or even for recording an amp that way...I hope my questioning makes sense. I am curious to others takes on that set up.
Note: I am aware that time-based effects (delays/reverbs, et al) generally work well in the send/return, with everything else on the floor (OD, wahs, etc), but for a digital reverb on a cranked power section it makes for a different scenario.
That opening jam reminded me of Radiohead. Curious what scale(s) you were using in that segment...
I guess sorta Lydian dominant... mixolydian...
Get some sexy vocals and we have a hit song! Bravo maestro! Very tasty.
Great demo, Pete! Saw one in person today at a boutique guitar store - looked great, but didn’t try it. Way out of my budget.
Get the best and you’ll never have to upgrade again ...I learned this the hard way always upgrading and losing more money then if I just bought a top quality piece of gear in the first place and
Me: I have reverb in my amp. I don't need it on my board.
Pete: Hold my beer.
it’s got some good qualities but I kinda feel like a big sky has it beat. The super lo-fi verb is distinct but everything else can be covered and then some by the big sky.
Doesn't sound bad...the pedal!
Your playing is outstanding like every time.
May be a pedal for studio and pros, i'm a reverb and delay addict, but this one is too digital and gimmicky for me. I have some old 19" rack units wich create similar sounds.
Well it's always a matter of taste...
Stay safe Pete, best wishes from Bavaria Germany 🇩🇪
Thats what I call a space reverb... Infinite
Anyone have thoughts on this vs a UA Golden Reverberator?
In 1:42 sek some magic happened, wow!
Brilliant musician, I’ve never heard you play anything that’s not really interesting and would go down great on an album. Is it as good as an Eventide? Or is it just different? It’s obviously awesome I’m just curious as to hear your opinion.
Thanks! Eventide are great too!
Sounds amazing! But 1k ... ouch.
Can't thanks Paul Davids enough that I found this channel..
Paul is awesome! I miss that guy
Will you make a quad cortex vs Kemper video?
I don’t really like to do the modeler wars videos haha! They are both really good pieces of gear.
