Guess the Bass -- Volume 5!

8/29/2023
It's a rare thing for us to have back to back episodes on the same topic, but we couldn't resist. It was time to put Reg through his guessing paces and see if he could get his overall GTB score up. He's been watching the other episodes, and honing his questioning skills. Can he do it this time? He really needs it to get his average up, and Jet's eager to see him do it. It's a fun time and a good chance for you to see if you can best Reg and guess the bass Jet is playing before it's revealed.

Gristle King VS D&M Drive . . . Which Is a Better Pedal?

8/2/2023
Overdrive and boost in the same pedal is really useful. Awesome in fact. Being able to switch the order of them is even better. Way better. Having some famous folks associated with the pedal is icing on the cake. Today Jet and Jason compare and contrast 2 different Signature drive/boost pedals, the D&M Drive from Keeley, co-designed and endorsed by Dan and Mick from That Pedal Show, and the Gristle King by Jauernig pedals, made to the specs of the famous Greg Koch. With lots of control and flexibility, these two pedals take guitar tone to the heights of playability, but in surprisingly different ways. If you thought all gain pedals are basically the same, check out this tone test to change your mind. The guys use P90s, Humbuckers and Single Coils with a Belle Epoch delay and spring reverb to make sure all avenues are explored in this fun and informative shootout. For information on the D&M Drive, please visit https://robertkeeley.com/product/dm-drive/ To learn about the Gristle King pedal, point your browser to https://www.gregkoch.com/store/p56/Gristle_King_Pedal.html To check out Amplified Nation amps, go to https://amplifiednation.com/ See Gibson guitars at https://www.gibson.com/en-US/ Find out about Nik Huber guitars at https://nikhuber-guitars.com/ See more on the Catalinbread Belle Epoch by going to https://catalinbread.com/products/belle-epoch To hear Jet in a band context, check out the Psychedelic Jazz Rock album "Road Trip" by Tonekasl: http://www.tonekasl.com Check out Tonekasl's latest video at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8P_0YQzifaE For even more content, please check out Gear 'n Gigs YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgazXXq0RQJi73tihpsVb2A Be sure to subscribe, like, and hit the notification bell so we can let you know about our next show!

The Car Collection for Guitar Players!

6/10/2023
The VVCO pedal reviews we've done on Gear 'n Gigs have been some of our favorites. Then Reg had an idea... A parking lot made from VVCO guitar pedals. It took a while, but Jet and his daughter managed to pull it off. A usable, practical floor board of sonic goodness that looks like a Hollywood vehicle reunion. . . the world's first pedal board parking lot! The planet's most famous cars dishing out some great effects. Clean boost from the Batmobile, SRV style overdrive in the Bandit's Trans Am, Distortion ala Rat hidden in Starsky & Hutch's Gran Torino, a killer chorus that solves mysteries with Scooby and the gang, an Earthquaker Depths inside Mr. T's van, Doc and Marty and the flying Delorean giving out great delay, while the Ghostbusters provide the haunting reverb. Headlights, tail lights, even street lights...this is a complete diorama of tone. Pardon the pun when we say, "C'mon along for the ride!"

No wires, one power supply, no pedalboard needed. Listen along as the guys put a Fender Strat through this hand-painted musical monster from the JAM Custom Shop and review all 10 pedals for you. Overdrives, compressor, fuzzes, Vibe, Tremelo, Chorus, Phaser, Delay....it's all in there and they play them all so you can hear how they sound, individually and combined.

Which of the Lightweight Bass Heads is the best?

5/23/2023
Jet and Reggie pit 3 heavy hitting but light weight bass amp heads against each other in this low frequency shootout to determine which one steals the show. Will it be the Mesa Boogie Subway D-800, the Aguilar Tone Hammer 500, or the Euphonic Audio iAmp Micro? Each has plenty of volume, with the wattage to move some serious air (the power range for these amps is 350-800 watts). Each features a class D power section, so they are almost as easy to move around as a pedal. Each has a powerful preamp section, with tons of tone-shaping goodness on tap. But they have very different strengths, as it turns out, and all of them are good enough to make the final decision difficult for our intrepid heroes. They'll put both a vintage P-bass with flatwound strings and a vintage Rickenbacker 4003 with roundwounds through all 3 amps in a direct comparison so you can decide with them. Put on some headphones and come along for the ride!

It was so much fun the first time, we had to do another dive into the deep end of tone twisting guitar pedals and techniques to see what atmospheric and amazing sounds we could make with our 6 string counterparts. If you're looking for ways to make your axe sound unearthly, unusual, or un-guitary (its a word), this is another show you need to see. Come with Reg and Jet as they take a trippy walk on the other side, using all the means at their disposal to make the sound of normal guitars anything but! Even if it only inspires you to do something outside your regular methods, it was worth the visit. You'll want to wear headphones for this one.

Guitar Inspiration Medication! Here Comes Something Completely Different...

1/23/2023
Guitar is really awesome. Except when you want something different. But you don't necessarily have to go to a another instrument, there are a lot of great ways to get more sounds from your axe! Take inspiration from our experimentation as we try all kinds of methods to change our tones to something more otherworldly, ways that you might be able to try with gear you already have, and maybe some new ways you've never thought of . . . It's fun in the studio with Jet and Reg for sure! Wear headphones for this one, it gets pretty wild!

Which is the Best Wah Pedal?

1/9/2023
So many wah pedals, so many choices. Which is our favorite, and which is yours? Jet, Tyler and Jason put 11 pedals to the test in our first ever bracketed competition to determine the best wah! Using a Strat, a Les Paul, and 2 Mesa Boogie amps, the guys take the time to carefully listen and test each pedal. They give 'em the beans, the biscuits, the peppers, and the onion in an all out effort to figure it all out, so you don't have to! Come along for a lot of fun and funk, rock 'n roll, and general six string wailing as we do the musical experiment the guitar world has waited too long to hear. The test involves boutique, vintage, mini, limited edition, and budget pedals . . . and the winner might surprise you.
