@@jasperchance3382 wasn’t really trying to make a complicated video and it was already kind of overloaded with information. I also didn’t really talk about noise gates or some weirder pedals and I also didn’t talk about stacking drives. All of these questions have been asked in the comments before, maybe I can go back and change the thumbnail to the best starting point ever lol thanks for watching & commenting. It’s appreciated. Cheers.

@@JobyP naaaa, it's ok as is

@@300ampeg why do you say that? I mean yes some fx loops are trash… 100% but this opinion is for both the front of the amp or the fx loop.

@@santiagoona8177 Thank You! I use GHS Bright Bronze strings. Lights on this guitar. I sold it however now I have a Yamaha FG-180 so I don’t remember the scale length. Sorry. Thanks for watching and commenting it’s appreciated.

@@Jamerzh There is nothing wrong with doing so. If you have a clean amp…. If your amp is dirty… you will see a difference… Cheers!

@JobyP Everything on my pedalboard goes straight into the front of an Origin 50 at the moment. Tumnus as an always on pedal, into a couple of other overdrives, delay and reverb more often than not always on too but low levels. Always sounded just fine to me. Maybe I'm lucky?

It’s because your delays and verbs are After your overdrives… if you have an amp that’s a bit dirty and run a delay into the front of it that’s when you get this result. Like I said either way is fine and I do both frequently tho live I use an FX loop because the delays and verbs are always “cleaner” and I just prefer that. Cheers!

@@jjgalletta66 Thank You! Just trying to share so people can get a good starting point! I appreciate you watching/commenting Cheers 🍻

@@demonspree Have you tried recording it from the XLR? It could be your P.A. Not delivering the goods. Honestly the cab/Mix switches are just preference. Try both settings on each and choose the one you prefer. You only need to hit the ground lift switch if you’re Getting Buzz… Also this seems dumb to mention but if you want “all” of your amp you need to plug your AMP into the 100% jack. And finally and VERY important… Does the OHM’s you are sending OUT of your amp Match the load box? You do NOT wanna use a 8 ohm amp out with a 16ohm load box… and this was offered in 4/8/16 ohm versions. I hope this helps!!!

​​@@JobyP amp 16 ohm out -> loadbox guitar Amp speaker output -> loadbox xlr -> PA. Am I missing something? I have the 16 ohm version and I'm using the 16 ohm output on the amp.

@@demonspree well from what you just said yes you are absolutely doing it wrong. Go from the 16 ohm output on your amp into where it says 100% on the load box then XLR out to your PA. Guitar amp, speaker output would go to your amps cabinet if you wanted to run it direct and still have a cabinet on stage.

@@JobyP not using a speaker on stage, we play in ear.

@@JobyP so i go amp 16 ohm -> loadbox 100% -> loadbox xlr -> p.a (in ear system)?

i start to understand after repeat yr video 20 times lol.. so basically, setup the board in 4 cables method, and when need to switch to direct method, just bypass SEND and OUT, and plug RETURN to amp front?

The spot that goes to the Front of your amp gets patched to the spot that normally goes to your FX Send. The FX send them goes to the front of your amp instead. Hope that makes sense.

@@rohanv8775 Thanks 🙏

Thank you very much for watching! And commenting! I still prefer to Mic amps as well. Cheers 🍻

@@Stringsmith Wow quite the critique. So, the intonation was perfect… It was a cheap kit body and a cheap kit neck which is why the heal was shite. The checking was likely from me painting in Michigan in January. Why didn’t I sand it out? Cuz I didn’t wanna paint it again in February. Pete is dead now but he was OLD… yeah he fuked up the ferrules… you want me to bitch out a guy in his 70’s over a cheap Chinese guitar kit? Naw… the first neck was bad? I haven’t watched this video since I made it 4 years ago… but I don’t even remember anything about two necks… you should probably make some videos about guitar building… seems like you’re an expert. This was my first ever attempt at building… I later went on to build several more and a dozen or so so far from scratch… so I figured it out… have fun… I’m trying to

@@JobyP Wow, great self-defense with the whole dead guy thing, and great vindication with the dozen or so scratch builds. But not a single vid on these scratch builds? Not so much as a photo? We would love to see your progress since your first attempt. The plugging holes in a guitar's face does not count since the finish will crack around those holes, I mean real progress. Show us the money or join the rank of Hack.

Thank you very much! 7 years later and I still support everything I said in this video. Except one thing… Univibe really sounds Bitchin’ before your dirt pedals! I learned most of this reading interviews with Bob Bradshaw and Pete Cornish. So I consider my teachers top shelf! Cheers, thanks for watching/commenting and subscribing it’s appreciated.

I do not. Sorry, I’m sure there’s something out there tho!

Mines long gone but how did you do it? Mine would NOT clean up at all…

Sold my 75 bought a 140 recently sold the 140 out of brokenness kind of already regret it but I did need the money lol great guitars

Sure get some lighter fluid “Ronsonal or Zippo” brand and Litterally take it to the entire guitar. Everything. You may wanna get some “0000 Steel Wool” to polish the frets. Then here’s my best tip by some “Scott’s Liquid Gold” and just wipe it on the entire guitar after you’ve polished the frets and cleaned the whole thing with the lighter fluid. Warning this stuff feels really greasy so wipe it on with a paper towel and then wipe it off with another paper towel. I usually end up doing the “dry wipe” a few times so wipe it off… wait like 5 miniutes… wipe it off…. Wait…. Wipe it off this is because the oil will Leach back out of the wood (specifically the fret board) but anyway yeah get it fully dried off before you restring it! It’s a beautiful guitar and they sound amazing. Hope this helps! Cheers thanks for watching/commenting. It’s appreciated!

One more Tip use fairly light strings on it… 11’s or 12’s at the most. It’s a pretty dainty guitar so it likes lighter strings.

@@JobyP thank you!

I am no expert but you can tune it with that transpose to another keyboard or a tuner (bit harder) or even a guitar just play one note on both and tune the transpose until they match.

It really is neat and I can’t understand why more guitars haven’t utilized this. To my ears it destroys the sound of a coil tap/split thanks for watching/commenting it’s appreciated cheers 🍻

@@JobyP I don't know if it 'destroys' coil-cancellation,, but it does provide a lot more variety for very little in parts and effort. On that same Vantage guitar, I also implemented the Bill Lawrence '"half out of phase' mod. By cutting bass content of the neck pickup with a series capacitor, putting neck and bridge out of phase does NOT result in that thin annoying tone with the big volume drop. On Telecasters, it yields a tone strikingly like neck+middle on a Strat, despite having no middle pickup, and with NO volume drop. It obviously won't sound very Strat-like on a dual-humbucker guitar, but it does yield another very usable N+B tone.

@@markhammer643 That’s awesome I just love the implementation so much better than other coil taps I’ve tried. And used in my own instruments I’ve built. It’s a great circut.

@@markhammer643 P.S. sorry for the slow reply KZbin seems to never alert me to replies… only the original comment so I check them sporadically

Guess it depends on how you use the gate? Elaborate on your rig a bit…

Thanks much for watching and commenting it’s much appreciated! Cheers 🍻

Thanks so much and I’m happy it helps!!! Cheers 🍻

Forgot to say, just subbed and going to check out other vids of yours soon dude, cheers man 👍

Well you’re already on the right path thinking “gain stage” if your running it by itself it belongs in the chain with your other gain pedals if you wanna stack it you really just have to play around with it and see what it like going into… what it like going after. They can clean up* a fuzz if you put it after and make a fuzz sound like an explosion before… just try it before and after all your other gain pedals and choose what you like best. Thanks for watching and commenting… it’s very appreciated cheers 🍻

​@@JobyPthanks so much for answering , that's really helpful advice mate cheers! Hope all is good with you 🍻🤞love from the grim UK! ❤

Feel Better?

Since the loops can be placed in any position in the signal chain it doesn’t matter if you use loop 1,2 or 3 if it makes more sense for you to use loop 3 that’s the way to go. It made more sense for me to use loop 1 because I would only be using Modulation, delay or reverbs in the other two loops… so for simple layout purposes always having loop 2 or 3 coming After loop 1 in the signal chain made the most sense (for my use purpose) but again if you wanted to use gain pedals in the loops of the MS-3 doing it they way you describe makes sense and is totally ok too…

They are incredible. I sold this one but now I have the FG-130 (the Elliot Smith Guitar)

Depends on what effects you want to loop… generally looper would just go last so you can loop Everything. But there are some times you may want to put it like before a delay pedal so that you’re not looping a delay, but yeah man generally just very last in line.

You can put whatever you want in the 3 loops. This pertains only to using it in 4 cable method. (Using amp distortion.) It really depends on how you want to route the amp… Your external Effects and the internal Effects of the MS-3 it’s almost limitless. But if you want to do 4 cable method you do have to use one of the 3 loops for that. So you lose the ability to put a pedal in that loop. Not sure if that answers your question.

It’s still kicking it’s my drummers practice kit now as really I’m a guitarist! Thanks so much for watching and commenting it’s so appreciated cheers 🍻

That’s awesome! I did end up buying the guitar from my friend BTW 😀

Thanks Brother ❤️

Thanks Much!

Thanks Josh Hope you are well.

You are welcome. Thanks for watching and commenting. It's appreciated!

It’s a pain in the Nuggets!!! Cheers 🍻 Thanks for watching/commenting. It’s appreciated.

I tried that and then 250’s didn’t get me what I wanted. I ended up going with Novak JM stealth Hum cancelling. I love them. Still sounds like a jazzmaster just more quiet and less stabby!

Nice! I’m in the U.K. so novaks are pretty much out 😢! I’m happy with my antiquities for the moment with the band I’m playing the Jazzmaster for it lends itself to a cleaner more jangly sound!! I’m looking at grabbing a second Jazzmaster, slinging a mastery on, locking the trem & putting some quarter pounders in as an all out rock machine 🤟🏻🤟🏻

A guy who at the time didn’t have two amps in his house. Also, let’s be honest 99.9% of players don’t run stereo. All that being said, sorry that this video didn’t have what you were looking for and I hope somebody else made a video of this pedal in stereo so you can hear it the way you prefer. Cheers 🍻

Thanks So Much for Watching and Commenting, it’s appreciated. Cheers 🍻

Bass is there… it’s quiet… and it’s Fuzzy but… it’s there! Is it my best mix ever? Nehhhhh… But it’s just a jam track…
