[@maximevaillancourt5956]

Probably weird to say but the emotion you put into your playing is something that I personally appreciate in every single video you post!

[@DarrellBraunGuitar]

Thanks SC! I really appreciate it

[@50Something]

Yes, I agree! We look forward to what you'll have to share like it's a favorite TV show or Hockey Night in Canada! You're getting big Darrell! Congrats!

[@MikeLee-lg5vq]

They both sound to me like they have some speaker distortion emulation. Like a Jenson pushed really hard. But not at ear-destroying volume!

[@caseyking8394]

I absolutely love the breakdown, so simple and so good. Great video Darrell, you never disappoint!

[@morguemolestation-topic6098]

awesome, now i want to get an eisenhower fuzz

[@RC32Smiths01]

That definitely lives up to some classic and almost bluesy rock indeed my man! Great work as always, I might even want one now!

[@KevinORourke25]

I always tune in primarily to hear you play, and secondarily to see what cool equipment you are reviewing. Both are always such a treat! Kevin

[@cliftongardner4367]

I usually don't like fuzz that much, but I'm really liking what I'm hearing with the Eisenhower... There's a synth-like quality to it, very fuzzy but also kind of clean-sounding too, if that makes sense. Great demo!

[@kevinmorrice]

that sweet classic sound

[@whatskraken3886]

I guess it's time to go to the store again. I love you Darrell, your content is super high quality

[@mr.limbismusic970]

Great video. The breakdown is an amazing pedal. I have been using it for about a month now and i love how the dirtier settings really clean up with volume knob or pedal. Super cool.

[@josephgrant757]

The Breakdown pedal instantly got my attention. It would definetly would be good for southern rock and blues, i need to get one in the future. Good video Darrell!

[@DarrellBraunGuitar]

Thanks JG!

[@Diosprometheus]

Hey Darrell, the pamphlet that comes with the Breakdown says The breakdown works by hitting the front of the amp and causing the input stages of our amp to break up. What does this mean? I am not about to hit any amp I have. The cost too much to replace them. Can you explain this hitting the front of the amp suggestion?

[@norman2999]

Super vid bro!! Now you've gone and done it, now I gots to get me a "Breakdown" pedal for sure!! Danelectro should be thanking you big time!! I know I am!! Keep it up!!

[@DarrellBraunGuitar]

Thanks NM! Glad to help :)

[@hotdogslayer4430]

The best part of every DBG video is "Hope you're having a great day today!" Oh and can you do your pedalboard review?

[@billamj]

Not feeling the Fuzz all that much but I am all about the Breakdown.

[@Cheguebuddha]

Yeah me thinks the same! The DOD Carcosa can give more fuzz options for less money but that Breakdown is just asking for my money big time! Lots of good stuff in that simple control box!

[@doctiberius2717]

Try the Wayhuge Angry Troll you know that boost pedal with five fists of anger 💥

[@donkeevney]

Opposite

[@DBSG1976]

Darrell, the pedals sound great, but your main Strat is pure silk, it really sings! I can't believe those are the original factory pickups...

[@SteelinDan]

Nice! Been looking at the Breakdown... great playing as always Darrel!

[@DarrellBraunGuitar]

Thanks!

[@likeanuuk6612]

that fuzz pedal is absolutely amazing geesus. and the sculpt setting sounded like an exaggeration of metallica tone i'm going to buy this pedal

[@dcbclawrence8687]

Man I’ve been watching you for a while and apart for my dad and Ace Frehley you have really inspired me!

[@thodorisvlastos6304]

Hey Darrell .i recently watched some videos about Brian May's "red special" guitar . And i was amazed with its capabilities . For those who didn't know its got 3 pickups and each pickup has two switches , one is on/off and the other is in/out of phase .that means that you can make soo many different combos creating unique sounds .so I thought it would be really cool in case you make a new build in the future to make it feature a similar pickup/electronics layout .it would be awesome . Btw i love you channel! Both the info and of course yoyr playing ! :)

[@ahjeezrick]

Just discovered your channel, I really like what you put out. You should definitely have way more subs than you have. Have a good one 🤙🏻

[@DarrellBraunGuitar]

Thanks Nolan! Glad you are here :)

[@steveokon5431]

Dig it! I like these two

[@karymwillemsen5564]

Nice pedals I love the sound of the fuzz. What is going on with you frets they look terrible at 6:52 or is that just a reflection ?

[@mikeldld9267]

Love your playing style

[@MsCatdograt]

All these vids make me wanna buy all of this,but I have no money,so I just dream about having the pedals and playing like you and wait for the next vedio :D

[@jamiedavis5549]

Wonderful video as usual

[@DarrellBraunGuitar]

Thanks Brandon!

[@wolf6597]

I really like the Danelectro pedals. Regardless of whether it's Break Up, Eisenhower or Roebuck, you can make really cool sounds. But the price of 200 - 210 euros is too expensive in Germany. Most hobby or amateur musicians consider whether a pedal would do the trick for less money.

[@elb64x2]

2015 TRADITIONAL 😍, love this sound.

[@fantomneznamy9443]

I love guitars! I wish i could get one . And nice video! 🖤

[@stevenmgyori3826]

Well done and thanks for sharing brother! Be Well D!

[@DarrellBraunGuitar]

Thanks Steven! Hope you are well too! 👍😎

[@bradhyatt1]

LOL, there were no pedal boards in the 70s! :)

[@50Something]

I guess the Eisenhower is a Super Fuzz or ultimate Octave/ or Octavia clone. Sounds pretty sweet! The breakdown is nice too, I'd like a little more sustain out of it though. I think It's push it with a germanium booster 😃

[@LarryMar]

You should do a Jackson Soloist SL3X or SLX review. I just got one, and with a Pro setup this guitar screams "shred me all day"!

[@slotsnthoughts691]

What is the model of the Tele with the Filtertrons?

[@davidhollyfield5148]

Love your informative chanel and your playing Darrell. I have taken some of your reccomendations on board (including 'the cheap as chips' 15 watt valve amp and Squire upgrades) Is that a Canadian accent you have?

[@DarrellBraunGuitar]

👍🇨🇦

[@oospagheti]

Do they sound like this without the amp? like in line?

[@beneten6462]

The 6th position on the overdrive pedal is almost into fuzz territory. Would anyone else agree? That’s what I kinda heard!

[@ZOOTSUITBEATNICK1]

imo WHUH! Great stuff! imo

[@DarrellBraunGuitar]

Thanks so much CN!!

[@CyberDocUSA]

View #999. 😷👍 #112. Love the tones you're getting.

[@marcionobrega5117]

Adorei 👍

[@stkbkr1]

pedal relicking, what next guitars.... uh nevermind

[@wonderwomanguy]

Cable relicing.

[@jacko717]

I really don't like the "roadworn/aged" finish on these pedals.

[@mxh5647]

Hmm I may be a bit of a greybeard but I always thought the early days of rock were the mid/late50s. Hmm:)

[@rayschoch5882]

Nicely done demo, as usual, Darrel, but for the pedals themselves, my response is … meh. Not bad, not especially good. I know there are players out there who end up with collections of pedals, and / or who get really enthused about a particular effect, but I'm not among them. I have an overdrive pedal and a tremolo pedal, both seeing limited use. I'm just not that much of a fan of FX.

[@TinkerToneworks]

Is the Eisenhower a tone bender clone?

[@codyshaffer3962]

Sounds more like a univox super fuzz.

[@TinkerToneworks]

@@codyshaffer3962 hmm

[@darkinertia2]

Doesnt seem right to do fuzz without a strat

[@davec1491]

They are not soft switch!!! Why do these keep being advertise as soft switch. No doubt about it they sound amazing but they are not soft switch

[@temudjin1155]

Janis Joplin

[@guacysock]

Neither are really my cup of tea
