damn, the Victory sounded great! Love that Jubilee too. would have loved to hear the 5150 on full blast.
There are still some that think the neck PU is moved to accommodate the extra frets which only proves they cannot detect the difference in length of each.

He nailed the comment about the EVH. I find the same thing if I turn the gain right back it just sounds like a car that hasn't warmed up and is coughing

I've watched this a couple of times now and I decided to plugged the Kat in to the puter and emulate the tone they had with the NS on and YES there is a very "digital" noise happening when the NS wants to turn kick in...but... it is because they haven't even set it up. They have basically just plugged in and gone for it. By going into tone studio and actually setting it up right you completely eliminate those artifacts

So I think its a gross generalisation by chappers (and you :wink: :mrgreen: ) ... just like any pedal if you don't adjust it properly for the amp your are then it will not sound right

I mean look at the tone they had for the EVH...it sounded shit and nothing like the others until chappers had them turn the gain up a bit. The dude doing the testing failed to even remotely get the tone similar on that before starting the test



also katana $699 ... kemper $4,000 ... just saying :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Chappers tone probably sounds shit even before he plugs in.

Amazing that Chappers guessed right.

In the end it's cork sniffing. All the amps sounded pretty good.

It is cool tho' that he has enough experience with all these types of amps that he can pick them, doubt I could have guessed any of them :lol:

That Pedal Show were really scathing of the Boss PW10, but I noticed they had turned the gain on, which means they weren't just using the wah modelling, they had activated an additional drive pedal model. So of course the tone was weird and compressed for a crybaby model. The instructions are even printed on the bottom of the pedal FFS.

In fairness they did mention both of those in the vid.

I've tried several times, I just can't gel with that YT channel. I think its the length of their shows and my attention span, which runs out around the 10 min mark.

Does TPS film in the same place as the Chappers vids? Rooms look pretty similar.
Loving it so far
