Fulltone OCD V4 Les Paul - Part 1

www.ProGuitarShop.com -This is the Fulltone OCD version 4. The Obsessive Compulsive Drive pedal is the perfect mate for a great tube amp. If you're lucky enough to own a Vox AC15 or a Marshall JTM45 and have a place where you can turn it up all the way, then you have an idea of what the Fulltone OCD is capable of. Plug in the OCD pedal, lay into a bar chord, and you will hear multiple layers of rich harmonic overtones in addition to the fundamental tone. This is not a subtle effect, these are beautiful ringing feedback tones that can be easily discerned and even sung if you have good ears! The Full Tone OCD produces classic tones you've heard on records by Led Zeppelin, The Beatles, Hendrix, AC and others. Roll back your guitar's volume knob and you'll have access to a whole myriad of gorgeous tones, including shimmering, spanking, full range clean sounds. The OCD pedal allows your guitar's natural tones to bloom, so your Strat will still sound like a Strat, and your vintage Les Paul will still sound like a vintage Les Paul. Overdrive and distortion pedals have always been something of a compromise in comparison to a great guitar amp cranked to the "sweet spot". Feel, tone, and harmonics often fall by the wayside when an overdrive pedal is plugged into the front end of a great amp, until now. Check out a Fulltone OCD at Proguitarshop.com and see what a great overdrive pedal can be!

T-Rex Alberta Overdrive Pedal

www.ProGuitarShop.com - The T-Rex Alberta Overdrive pedal is a capable little guy in the world of tube screamer clones that just don't measure up. The Alberta Overdrive was built with high quality components with exceptional attention to detail and tonal characteristics. This means all the disadvantages of the original screamer pedals have been ironed out. This means your low end stays intact and you can get more gain and less gain than the traditional design. The T-Rex Alberta Overdrive goes above and beyond the traditional tube screamer. The Gain turned up produces thick, creamy, sustaining overdrive with just enough of a mid boost to kick you out front but not sound nasally. With humbuckers, the overdrive is still silky smooth without getting muddy or tubby. The low end is tight and dynamic and the Tone control has a very wide range without getting muddy or tinny at the extremes. All in all, if you're looking for a screamer tone that stays true check out the T-Rex Alberta Overdrive pedal.

Blackstar HT DIST

www.ProGuitarShop.com - The Blackstar HT-Dist provides more tonal diversity than any distortion pedal youve ever used. Really. Can your distortion pedal go from American to British sounds, and deliver truly brown sounds that drip with vintage goodness? But thats not all this pedal can do. With some creative tweaking of the tone knobs, and the patent-applied-for Infinite Shape Knob, you can run with the devil and head to heavier realms when necessary. This is a true marvel of distortion tones, and can deliver it all, from mild distortion to some bruising tones. Best of all, dont lose the sound of your guitar or amp when turning it up. The level and gain knobs should be used in conjunction to achieve the desired amount of volume and gain. The bass, middle, and treble controls can all be used to alter the sound and tone of your distortion. The Blackstar HT-DIST pedal demands that you sit with it and tweak knobs. But it can also be used immediately out the box, too, with amazing results. The ISF (Infinite Shape Feature) allows you to dial in UK or American sounding distortion, as well as blend in these two distinctive distortion voices. The Blackstar HT-DIST is powered by ECC83/12AX7 valves for some truly rich and warm tones, and its emulated speaker output is perfect for direct recording. - proguitarshop.com

Blackstar HT DISTX

www.ProGuitarShop.com - The Blackstar HT-DistX will transform the most civilized valve amp into a fire-breathing, ultra high gain machine of filth and fury. Yeah, its that nasty. This pedal is specifically designed for modern guitarists that demand high gain voltage valve tones for extreme, progressive, and other heavy styles. With its design however, dynamics are present, and the distortion comes across as completely natural and organic with its ECC83/12AX7 valve. Do you need utter devastation in your tone while also needing maximum tonal shaping options? The Blackstar HT-DistX is the pedal for you. The level and gain work in conjunction to achieve the drive and volume necessary for your overdrive. The bass, middle, and treble knobs also act to supremely shape your sound. Scooped mids? You havent heard scooped mids until youve heard the Blackstar HT-DistXs scooped mids. Crank those mids, though, and sustaining, stinging leads are at your fingertips. The DistX also features Blackstars patent-applied-for ISF knob, or the Infinite Shape Feature. This knob when turned completely clockwise, will give you a characteristic UK distortion. Turned counter-clockwise, it will give you American tones. Dont be afraid to blend these, with just some fine adjustments. Now you see why the tonal options here are amazing. If youre seeking extreme levels of sonic mayhem, the Blackstar HT DistX is the pedal for you. - proguitarshop.com

T-Rex: ALBERTA Overdrive

t-rex-effects.com The Alberta remains a classic of the T-Rex stable. It was their first commercial pedal and was later drawn on for the Møller's sound in 2003. The Alberta pays homage to the great green drive we all know and love, and it is a great low to medium drive that sounds particularly good (IMO) with single coil pickups. Here you'll hear it with a Clapton signature and a Floyd Rose Redmond Model 5, both through the clean channel of my Laney VC50. Of course, the Alberta can be used to give an amp's break-up channel a good kick in the behind and this is something that I hope to demonstrate at a later date. Thanks for watching, as always. Brett Kingman.

NO ALTERNATIVE

"No Alternative," a novel by William Dickerson. "No Alternative" is a coming-of-age drama that drills a hole into the world of suburban American teenagers in the early 90's. Thomas Harrison is determined to start his own "alternative" band, an obsession that blinds him to what's either the mental collapse, or the eruption of musical genius, of his little sister, Bridget. Bridget boldly rejects her brother's music, and the music of an entire generation of slackers, by taking on the persona of an X-rated gangsta' rapper named "Bri Da B." No Alternative probes the lives of rebellious kids who transition into adulthood via the distortion pedals of their lives in an era when the "Sex, Drugs & Rock'n'Roll" ethos was amended to include "Suicide" in its phrase. "A sympathetic coming-of-age story deeply embedded in '90s music. Reflective, unafraid of big-picture pronouncements--'nothing is more do-it-yourself than suicide.' The cool, casual tone results in knockout diagnoses of the '90s teenage condition: 'You feel older as a teenager than you will ever feel in your entire life.'" -Kirkus Reviews "A five star read, especially for any member of Generation X." -Versatile Book Reviews

Top Ten Greatest Guitar Players

When learning another language, experts recommend that you immerse yourself in the language. The same principle applies when learning how to play guitar. Listening to great guitar players can be a source of inspiration, can encourage you to keep practicing, and give you a goal to work toward. The following are the top ten greatest guitar players, listed in no particular order:

1. Jimi Hendrix - At one point, Hendrix couldn't get a break in Nashville, and he ended his backup days with Little Richard in a contract dispute. He quickly realized, however, the value of innovation in playing, as well as in putting on a stage show that fans would remember. Many fans claim he was the greatest guitarist ever to pick up the instrument. At the very least his creative drive, technical ability and such effects as wah-wah and distortion forever transformed the sound of rock and roll. It was his innovation, and his ability to play his guitar in any position with any body part, that consistently places him as one of the top rated guitarists ever.

2. Eric Clapton - Clapton can not only brag that he's considered one of the greatest rock guitarists and one of the greatest blues guitarists, but also that he has drawn huge crowds for his classical guitar concerts. His playing style is smooth, yet precise, and chords almost seem to flow from his fingertips.

3. Robert Johnson - Recorded his songs for the first time on November 23, 1936 in San Antonio, Texas. Although modern guitar players will often complain that Robert Johnson was out of time, out of tune, and you cannot understand his vocals, style of playing was unlike anything else at the time, and set the pace for future generations of blues players. Johnson is also the guitar player often accused of having made the deal at the crossroads, selling his soul to the devil in order to be able to play.

4. Eddie Van Halen - The lightning speed and innovative sounds of Eddie Van Halen's guitar are easily recognizable. They are even more impressive when taking into consideration that he is completely self-taught, having never had any type of lesson. It has often been said, that it is easy for Eddie to be creative in his playing techniques because he was never told how he could or could not play.

5. Stevie Ray Vaughan - Born on October 3 1954 , in the Oak Cliff Section of Dallas Texas. Easily one of the most well known modern blues guitarists, Vaughan's music seemed to be pulled from the depths of his soul at times. While his playing was smooth, it was the sheer amount of emotion in every note that drew people to his music.

6. Tony Iommi - For many people, Iommi is considered the first real metal guitar player, using a lot of distortion but keeping it completely controlled. His fiery style is even more impressive because his fingering hand is missing the tips of two fingers, requiring him to use rubber prosthetics when playing.

7. Jeff Beck - Many guitar players consider Jeff Beck to be one of the most well rounded guitarists in the world, able to produce incredible tones with what appears to be very little effort. Despite his ability to create amazing sounds with a great depth of feeling, he is rarely given the credit he deserves.

8. Jimmy Page - Formerly one of the hottest studio players in England, Page not only has the ability to write incredible guitar riffs, but he also has the ability to play them perfectly.

9. Randy Rhoads - Was an American heavy metal guitarist who is best known for playing with Ozzy Osbourne. Rhoads was perfect and precise in every note, but did so with a great depth of feeling. Not only could he play the music, but he could write it also.

10. Joe Satriani - Satriani may well be the next stage in the evolution of guitarists. He has the ability to play music when he is goofing off that many guitar players will never be able match, even after years of practice.

While this is by no means the definitive list of the greatest guitar players, and some would disagree with the names on the list, it is an excellent starting point. By listening to accomplished players, those who are learning to play guitar can find their inspiration.

Boss OS2 Overdrive Distortion Guitar Pedal

www.worldmusicsupply.com Jason Spencer of World Music Supply demonstrates the OS2 Overdrive/Distortion effects pedal from Boss for electric guitar.

Harmonic Exciters

A harmonic exciter (or 'enhancer') is often applied to a track during the mastering process to help add that final piece of 'sparkle' to a mix. By applying this type of processing, the overall resolution of the music can be artificially increased, resulting in a sonically brighter final product.

The primary function of a harmonic exciter is to restore or replace any frequencies that may have been compromised or left out altogether during the mixing stage. This can often be attributed to other processing which has been applied to the various tracks, consequently dulling many of the transients due to various changes in phase. One way an enhancer can resolve this issue is to realign the phase of the transients, which helps to restore their definition and therefore increases the general clarity of the music.

Another way that exciters can improve the brightness of sound is to introduce reasonably small amounts of harmonic distortion. Particular frequencies can be targeted by adjusting the controls, and the exciter will treat the sound by subjecting it to second and third order harmonic distortion. This distortion is then mixed back in with the original signal, resulting in a much cleaner and brighter sound.

Many modern harmonic exciter plugins are multi band, which allows the user to apply different amounts of enhancement to different frequencies bands. As the aim of an exciter is to artificially increase the brightness of the high frequencies, and the density of the medium to low frequencies, it is important that these can be treated separately. Multi band variants are therefore very flexible in these situations.

It is important to use enhancers diligently, especially if applied across the whole mastering bus. Overuse of this type of processing can often result in a fatiguing and overtly unnatural sound which is unpleasant to the listener.

Vox Satchurator Distortion Pedal

www.ProGuitarShop.com - The Vox Satchurator Distortion Pedal - Drawing on Joe Satriani's knowledge accumulated from decades of groundbreaking performances, both live and in the studio, VOX unveils a breakthrough in guitar tone -- The Vox Satchurator distortion pedal. Designed to Satriani's exact specifications. The Satchurator produces Satriani's signature tone and adds new features and improvements never before combined in a distortion pedal. After almost a year of painstaking experimentation and road testing, Satriani and the VOX R&D team discovered the secrets to capturing the ultimate distortion tone in a modern-day pedal. The Vox Satchurator Distortion Pedal is capable of very high gain levels, but operates more quietly and musically than other modern distortion pedals. The Vox Satchurator Distortion Pedal also preserves the tone and pick-attack of the guitarist plugging into it, regardless of style, from subtly distorted blues tones through classic rock and shred. The result is a professional-quality pedal that recaptures sought-after vintage and modern sounds in a powerful, versatile and extremely musical pedal design.

overdrive,distortion and fuzz comparision

It is quite difficult understand difference in tone bethween overdrive, distortion and fuzz. Every pedal play different, and same pedal play different with differents amps and guitars, so possibility are countless... and question remain the same. I tried with 3 pedal (Big Buff is not exactly a fuzz, but play is a very similiar way... and is the only pedal of this kind i got, i'm not in love with fuzz) same pattern with different pickup and style solution. Setting are different from pedal to pedal, but are quite balanced in volume and set to make the own character of the pedal understandble. You can make your own opinion on it. Very short and easy, overdrive in general "make fat" the tone, and preserve most of the original attack of the guitar. Depending on amp and setting, do something like a more cranked tone of same kind. This is especially true when you turn down volume, one of more important things to to to judje anything on electrig guitar stuff (amps, pedals, pickups). Distortion are usually harder in attack, if the pedal is good is anyway dynamic and make the original tone understandble, but even of low distortion values the tone is different and neither at low volume setting became clear and soft as the overdrive. The fuzz has a deep effect of the waveform, it change totally attack of the instrument. Is very dirty, and even if clean up lowering volume (any good pedal should) the break up is quite violent, so depending of style doesn't fit all usage, but is quite ...

Fulltone OCD V4 Strat - Part 2

www.ProGuitarShop.com - The Fulltone OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Drive) overdrive pedal is the perfect mate for a great tube amp. If you're lucky enough to own a Vox AC15 or a Marshall JTM45 and have a place where you can turn it up all the way, then you have an idea of what the Fulltone OCD is capable of. Plug in the OCD pedal, lay into a bar chord, and you will hear multiple layers of rich harmonic overtones in addition to the fundamental tone. This is not a subtle effect, these are beautiful ringing feedback tones that can be easily discerned and even sung if you have good ears! The Full Tone OCD produces classic tones you've heard on records by Led Zeppelin, The Beatles, Hendrix, AC and others. Roll back your guitar's volume knob and you'll have access to a whole myriad of gorgeous tones, including shimmering, spanking, full range clean sounds. The OCD pedal allows your guitar's natural tones to bloom, so your Strat will still sound like a Strat, and your vintage Les Paul will still sound like a vintage Les Paul. Overdrive and distortion pedals have always been something of a compromise in comparison to a great guitar amp cranked to the "sweet spot". Feel, tone, and harmonics often fall by the wayside when an overdrive pedal is plugged into the front end of a great amp, until now. Check out a Fulltone OCD and see what a great overdrive pedal can be!

1975 (2nd gen) SUNN MODEL T

this amp was recently used on our recordings at: www.myspace.com intro note: sorry for the sloppy playing, I didn't really make this video with a certain game plan, just wanted to show how sludgy the amp could be all in itself. Sorry for the audio quality, the camera isn't really made for recording high volume ancient tube amps. Before I purchased this amp, I did some extensive research on it. I was well aware that Sunn's are known for Massive & Crushing Tones. I had asked around attempting to find out if Sunn's (model T in particular) could achieve distortion without the use of a pedal. All the responses I got ranged from "..No", "it's an old amp with a lot of head room, just a loud clean amp, no distortion at all" and "if you put it to 10 you might get a slight crunch out of it". As you know now, this did not discourage me from getting one, so I did. After playing it with and without pedals, one day I decided to crank the volume a little (I turned the master volume to about 3, and the normal and brite channels to 10) and wow, this thing gave out monsterous distortion. Just goes to show you, don't always trust what you read. So anyways, I still continue to find these statements across a wide range of forums and websites. So I decided to make this video for people who might be in the position I was once in (since all the Sunn Model T videos on youtube were usually just fender reissues or owners not quite pushing the amps). If you want any demos of the amp, let me know (ie ...

Durham Electronics Zia Drive Overdrive Pedal

www.ProGuitarShop.com - The Durham Electronics Zia Drive is designed to give low compression overdrive perfect for the rhythm player. The Zia Drive makes a 6l6 amp sound like EL84's. Tight and chimey, the Durham Electronics Zia Drive will take away the sag and add some low end shine to an EL-34 based amp. Durham Electronics, like all their pedals, chose to skip on the true bypass switch and opted for a high quality buffer. That way the guitar's signal stays clean and there is no annoying pop when switching the effect on and off. The Durham Electronics Zia Drive is smooth and sweet. The Tone control preserves the low end of your guitar no matter where it's set. No more tinny highs and zapped lows. As a clean boost, the Durham Zia Drive is sweet and transparent with a sparkle that is unmatched. The overdrive is clear and singing with a bluesy touch that will bring back memories of early '70s Stones. The Durham Zia Drive was designed primarily for rhythm players but when used to boost the front end of your amp, the Durham Electronics Zia Drive can send your guitar over the top with screaming clarity.

I used a Fender Classic Players Jazzmaster, which was a little odd to play, simply because of the scale length of the guitar...enjoy!

The Best Ways to Weld Stainless Steel

Stainless steel is a fascinating metal to weld. I have spent many years welding different grades of stainless steel. Needless to say I have picked up a few tricks along the way to make the process a little bit easier and of course to produce better welds.

Welding stainless can be difficult if you don't know what you are doing. It reacts to excessive heat by warping and distorting once it cools. Everything shows up in stainless. What I mean by that is if you weld with too much heat you can see it by the heat marks left in the metal along with any distortion. It also scratches very easily so you must take care when welding on a metal table.

One of the best things to do when welding stainless is to use a heat sink such as brass or aluminum. I usually clamp a piece of 3/8 brass behind the seam of the weld. This absorbs the heat and also prevents any burn through. The trick with stainless is to put as little heat into it as possible, especially with thin material. It's worth the extra time to make sure you have the heat sinks in place before beginning your weld. This allows you to actually weld the entire seam without interruption.

Have you ever noticed that when you get to the end of the weld and you pull the heat off it always tends to turn a dark gray. That's because you are carrying all the heat with you and by the time you get to the end it's at its hottest point. A little trick that I discovered on accident is when you get to the end of the weld and you take your foot off the pedal. Wait until the weld pool solidifies and then touch the tungsten to the metal and hold it there till your gas stops flowing. You'll notice that the color will come back to the weld. Depending on how long you touch the tungsten to the end of the weld. You can actually get that nice salmon color back. You can only do this with a setup that uses a foot pedal. If you are using a dry rig system where you have to use a lift arc this is not possible.

I have built many stainless steel tables for commercial kitchens. We would add hat channels to give the table more stiffness. Any welding would be done on the channels and not the actual table. This keeps it looking clean.

Lets say you had a 5 sided box as a base. The bottom was open and you wanted to weld a pipe in the center of it. No matter how small you kept the welds, the base would still warp and twist from the heat. This depends on the material thickness. I am talking about 14 gauge material. You have to have a frame to keep the base from warping. I have tried several different methods using heat sinks and clamps but they have all produced some amount of distortion. The best way was to add either a few channels underneath or an actual frame with angle iron.

The Best Guitar Effects Processor - The Secret to Great Guitar Tone

Pure heart stopping distortion.

Those were the words used in a guitar player magazine advert for the Art sgx 2000 that first caught my attention. The most important thing I learned from owning one was how to eq my sound to get great guitar tone.

I know that sounds like I'm blowing my own trumpet, and everyone has their own idea of what a good guitar sound is, so let's just say I've learned a few things that hopefully you may find useful.

When it comes to direct recording, I've always tried to emulate the sound one hears when standing a fair distance away from the speakers, as opposed to the gritty sound one gets when the amplifier speaker is facing you directly.

Simple EQ guidelines.

I almost always end up adding more bass to my guitar sound. Not too much, but just enough to round out the sound. A guitar sound can actually handle quite a fair amount of extra bass before it gets overbearing.

The trick here is to offset it with the right amount of upper midrange. The frequency I generally like to use is 4 khz.

For bass, 100 Hz is usually fine, but it depends on the amplifier and speaker being modelled as well.

Guitar effects processors and amplifier modellers I've used successfully in the studio.

1. 
   The Art SGX 2000 (No longer made). This had a valve preamp section which was configured in different ways to produce various sounds, as well as a solid state distortion. This had excellent effects and eq options. The closest thing available nowadays is the Rocktron Prophecy 2 and the Rocktron voodoo valve.


2. 
   The Sansamp classic. This in combination with the Art SGX 2000 gave me one of the most awesome rock guitar sounds. This is simply an amplifier simulator and has no extra effects like reverb, delay etc.


3. 
   The Roland GP 100. The first guitar effects processor from Roland to feature their "Composite Object Sound Modelling", or COSM for short. This was a totally digital unit, and even though the effects where good, the amp models left a lot to be desired. The latest COSM guitar preamps are mostly made by Boss, a subsiduary of Roland.


4. 
   The Behringer V-Amp. This little unit surprised me with the quality of some of its tones, especially for direct recording and live straight into the mixing desk. The trick was to use the right speaker cabinet model, as only a few where good. Behringer is now up to the V-Amp 3.


5. 
   The Boss GT-6. This multi-effects processor initially dissappointed me, but after really diving in and exploring every option available, I was eventually able to emulate a wide variety of guitar amps quite convincingly as well as find a guitar sound to call my own. If you've got one, the trick is to use the booster pedal effect to alter the tone of some amps as well as not be afraid to eq the hell out of it if you have to.


6. 
   The Boss GT-Pro. This, along with the GT 10 floor unit is the latest COSM processor, and is a rackmountable guitar rig for the recording studio.

While I've used other guitar processors than the ones mentioned above, I've excluded those that really didn't have what it takes.

There are also a lot of guitar processors I've never used before which may be excellent, but I can't really say anything about them until I do.

Some more tips when working with guitar amp modellers.

• Never be afraid to get too radical with the EQ. Sometimes that's what it takes to turn a good sound into a great one.


• Always take a break when you think you've found the sound you want, and come back later to see if it's still sounding good.


• Check the sound with and without headphones. What sounds good on headphones can sometimes be a bit over the top when the studio monitors are used.


• Use a guitar that's got medium to low output. Some processors can't handle the extremely high output of high gain pickups. I've found that pickups with an impedance of 15K or less work fine. 20K may be too much for certain digital processors.


• Check all gain stages if you can, too see that no part of the effects chain is overloading the next one, or the output. This helps a lot with the final tone.

So what is the best guitar effects processor?

As always, this is very subjective. Everyone has a different taste in guitar sound. What I look for is a comprehensive EQ section with an option to put something in the effects loop, so I can add to the machine later.

As I mentioned earlier, the best rock guitar sound I ever got was using one of Tech 21's classic Sansamp pedals in the effects loop of my Art SGX 2000. Seeing as they don't make the Art anymore, I've found other options.

Your guitar and pickups can make a major difference as well. At the moment I use the Boss GT-Pro, and I've got some really great sounds from it, but not without tweaking and experimentation.

As a music arranger I'm often called on to recreate the backing music for various artists and songs. I need to have great guitar sounds on tap. It's important that they match the original very closely. In my Boss GT-Pro review I give you some of the pro's and cons of the guitar effects processor I use, as well as the exact sound settings and demos of my favorite patches. Come check it out.
