Gladio SC: First Reaction

[@timothygrupp]

Isn't it frustrating to not be able to find that tone you hear so clearly in your head... 🤔 About took the top of my head off with the tone up! Wasn't too sure what the Clean control did but your explanation of it bringing clean tones into the pedal mix made some sense but wasn't apparent to my ear. The Comp control really did open it up. Nice! Thanks for the demo...very cool.

[@markhopkinsmusic]

Thanks per usual Tim! The clean control just widens the tone imo. It feels 3D in the room and feels absolutely killer to play

[@willnova1234]

Just got one! Thanks for the chat today Bro!! ❤️❤️

[@pickspedals2557]

Great review and awesome playing, Mark!

[@markhopkinsmusic]

[@PaulGrieselhuber]

Just found your channel, glad I did. You're a fantastic player Mark. Looking forward to following your work.

[@markhopkinsmusic]

Thanks Paul, that means a lot!

[@thierrylecuyer1507]

Hope to try it soon, sounds amazing my dude!💪😃

[@markhopkinsmusic]

thanks brother!

[@bigideaslittlefocus1154]

Keep revisiting this one. I busted the tele back out and it's my main guitar again. Now that things are turning around, I'm gonna get the Gladio SC again

[@markhopkinsmusic]

I sold my dual Gladio and kept this one. It’s super dope

[@jkov]

Hey man, loving your channel. I first saw your kingtone fuzz video and I have one coming tomorrow thanks to that. It would be cool to see a rig rundown video!

[@markhopkinsmusic]

Thanks Man!!! Sure thing, I can make that happen in the next two weeks. Thanks for supporting me, it means soooo much!

[@carlezzatvar4584]

Hi Mark, another great demo. I just bought this pedal and hoping it pairs up nicely with my bartel starwood. It certainly sound great in your set up. Thanks man. I always enjoy your videos

[@markhopkinsmusic]

Thanks so much, that means a lot!

[@ojaisherpa]

Makes my amp sound like a Two Rock :). Great demo

[@markhopkinsmusic]

Thanks Steve!

[@jaymelani]

YES Burrito of TONE! That needs to be on a Gladio T-shirt... ...

[@markhopkinsmusic]

LoL!! 100% Accurate.

[@LitenPaTuben]

Another great demo! 👌

[@markhopkinsmusic]

Thanks homie!!!

[@SashaIvantic]

Awesome!! 🔥🔥

[@markhopkinsmusic]

thanks buddy! i gotta check yours out pronto!

[@chrismahermusic5142]

would love to hear an analogman stacked with the gladio sc. great playing! great demo! subscribed!

[@markhopkinsmusic]

Oh man! My buddy has a Sun Face - lemme see if I can borrow it. Thanks so much for supporting the channel Chris!

[@eldricarpilleda]

When you said drop c tuning, i was hoping you'd do Ariel Posen riffs then you did Try. Great sound man!

[@markhopkinsmusic]

I love that!!! That just made my day!

[@drewbybee4074]

How's it sound through the Varsity?

[@markhopkinsmusic]

Had to ship it back to Magnatone :-( Just a loaner unfortunately.

[@joshua0226]

What gauge do you throw on that sucker for c standard?

[@markhopkinsmusic]

16- 58 - feels like butter!

[@joshua0226]

@@markhopkinsmusic sweet! You should totally do a little video on the ap Hudson broadcast into the gladio sc or vice versa ! cheers sweet videos !!

[@markhopkinsmusic]

@@joshua0226 I’ll def throw a fuzz on there for next week.

[@ussrantiquehunt7164]

Gladio SC or Blues power? Thanks

[@markhopkinsmusic]

Very different pedals in my opinion. But if you want that throaty SRV thing i would lean into the Blues Power. The Gladio is great for the creamy stuff and a little of the Stevie thing.

[@bigideaslittlefocus1154]

Here we go again!

[@markhopkinsmusic]

Hahaha -you know it buddy!

[@carpediem4413]

Sounds messy/muddy IMO

[@markhopkinsmusic]

probably because of the guitar - it's in C Standard- there's some other clips with my standard tuning Strat - check out the "Red House" cover - that's all Gladio SC
