What's the most drool-worthy pedal on Jared James Nichols's pedalboard?

[@CianRourke]

Funky Vibe

[@russellzauner]

Since I can't get a Klon, the Klon. I could get by with a Rangemaster tho

[@steverhinefrank5589]

this was a great and helpfull presentation. but, that boy's tone is in his fingers... so cool !

[@robinjgill]

Klon.

[@tomasfjeld99]

Octavia

[@jamwayofaiken-augustarockb7643]

A shout out to this incredible employee of Sweetwater. All his interviews are top grade consumate pro. Beginners and pros all get educated while the current star is perfectly cajoled into personable flow of shareing. All this and he himself is a master musician. This is what musician fellowship should always strive to be.

[@silvashreds4561]

James is the only guy who actually uses his epiphone model i love it!!!

[@donewithmodernlife]

I’ve never listened to Jared’s music but he has a great sense of humor & taste in gear. After listening to his playing in this video I’m going to give him a listen, he rips. Digging his signature Epi too, the mashup of Les Paul Junior/Custom/Goldtop is really intriguing.

[@hanovergreen4091]

I didn't get him for a long time. Now I dig his tunes and sound. He has probably done more for the P90 movement, alone, than a bunch of players over years. I've loved the P90 sound but never got one until 2017. Now it's all I use and am replacing all the Humbuckers with P90's. 1AnitrasDance has his entire album release performance from January on their channel. Good guests too. Best Regards!

[@BrianSGuitars]

I have Jared's new Gold Glory. How my mom & pop shop got one before Sweetwater I have no clue, but it's awesome sounding and plays great!

[@CianRourke]

Nice to see a simple proper rock ‘n’ roll rig. Plus I don’t believe JJN ever misses leg day.

[@everlymurdoc2327]

Not even listened to this guys music yet but watched loads of his gear interviews. Absolutley killer tone and a super nice dude!

[@1186Dean]

JJN is such a badass. Thank you for putting this up.

[@tomthumb4325]

Love this guys playing every note sings like a butterfly on acid his enthusiasm for what he does for a living just makes you want to play if only I could play like him damn it

[@josephl.2398]

Jesus, Jared was really killing it in this video

[@ricardorobbiano452]

JJN is one of the most exciting guitarists of last times. His feeling and intensity when he touches are amazing. I'd like to see him play along with Phil X. Both pure passion. Long live R’N’R!

[@hanovergreen4091]

Great player underappreciated as a caveman fretboard smasher. Great performer and P90 ambassador. Glad he's getting recognition for his work and talent.

[@richietownsend6737]

Both these guys are a joy to listen to talking gear and guitars. Jared James Nichols is a monster guitarist, and Don Carr is an all-around great guitarist and demo artist.

[@rubentrevino6288]

Not since srv have we been waiting for the one to save guitar, jared is the coolest baddest , thank you god

[@paulstaffordcook8799]

Man, he’s incredible! And he seems so humble! Did all these tones come out of a single pickup? That’s it, I’m selling my guitars, gonna take up chess.

[@bcaz84]

It’s also just an epiphone.

[@mattcampbell5941]

Can I borrow your skills if you’re not going to use them 😉

[@paulcowart3174]

This guy has me thinking about playing with out a pick more Finger Tone

[@johns1159]

I would pay just to jam with this musical genius! What an incredible talent and an inspiration!

[@stevestarr6395]

Jared’s such a cool guy and I have an 81’ TS9 the 1rst year they came out and love and never leave it! 🤙🏽

[@VapnFagan]

Those RMC wahs are awesome! I have one, You have the best control ever with them

[@KRayxKodessA]

I never really subscribed to the whole Klon hype, but damn. And that matted out gold top looks sick.

[@LDN76]

That sound is amazing, wow

[@FunkAndFluff]

14:44 I love these two wonderful nerds!

[@ToddTheJoker]

This was great to watch, this man has monstrous tone! The Tale of Brave Ulyssis,,,,great deep dive Cream reference Jared! Also, "no pick" folks! amazing!

[@gustavoviveros8394]

Incredible sound !!!!

[@myhomerecordingexperience]

Great guy, Great sounds, Rock on!

[@johnnyguitar65]

I have the JJN 20watt head ...through a Marshall 2x12...it is glorious!!

[@mozartsp]

Really cool board! In a way it's very similar to Philip Sayce's board with the vintage down-to-earth style. Love them both.

[@allenmitchell09]

This cat don’t mess around! He’s really digs in.

[@Tognar]

Humble request to not crop out a player's right hand and the guitar controls. Players like JJN, the right hand technique is a huge part of the magic!

[@remoteviewingartistmusicia9010]

Wow killer tone and playing.

[@wolfhorsky]

Gotta love that guy. Very very nice interview.

[@danriley903]

"I always adjust for the room" OMG!!!! as a veteran musician (an old guy! LOL!) I can't tell you how imprtant that is!!! also, listen up sound guys! especially reverb and delays!

[@paulcowart3174]

He doesn't seem to use reverb which is cool I'm the same but it's cool for a certain section if a song Atmospheric

[@v-gc7257]

Simple and deadly board. Nice

[@TheBladepolisher]

I'm researching JJN for possible lessons. I like how he really works those blue collar blues rock tones. Would've liked to see a slight segue in to some other styles, but for what he does he's the man. The research continues.

[@robinjgill]

IMO JJN is the best around. He's not only a phenomenal guitarist but also has "the" vibe, two things that very seldom come togther. He beamed from 68-70. BTW, I reckon the Klon only really does it's thing with the gain turned up, which is kind of the opposite to the TS9 which to me is best with the gain downish and vol up.

[@benlogan430]

Kinda reminds me of a Steve Hill style playing technique. Good stuff indeed!

[@keeprocking3620]

JJN is the man!

[@viniciusmarcilio3194]

Really cool transition at 14:04 ..

[@DavidMorales008]

Awesome

[@thejakefromstatefarm6768]

Damn his board looks like mine. Fairly simple and straight forward. I do most of the work with the amps and the les paul. I use a A/B A and B pedal to go from one amp to the other or both. I use a joe bonnomasa wah a pal 800 overdrive and a vox stomp lab. Call me crazy but the vox stomplab does some great things if used tastefully. I have a noise gate but if rarely use it.

[@shanerose5348]

Don's reaction: totally worth the price of admission

[@stephenmurphy2306]

Class

[@donkeevney]

That's really cool maan.

[@hailmaryrecordings8255]

I like the black one better, but this is a guitar from Gibson/Epi, that I always thought would be cool ... It’s like a JR Custom. It’s a rock machine.

[@christian_silo]

The 3 note bend at 0:30 blew my mind

[@paulcowart3174]

Perfect pedal board Minimal but covers pretty much all and heyo he doesn't need no stinking fuzz I guess some on the Octavio tho Usually the best guy's have less than six pedals

[@paulcowart3174]

I owned an original gold Klon when they first came out Wish I would have been more open minded as far as stacking that stuff It wasn't a "thing" yet Stacking pedals wasn't common back then and I had a killer TS that sounded better than the Klon so it sat in a drawer for years until I sold it for a huge profit But if I would have stacked those 2 pedals I probably would have had that AHA moment lol Oh well no regrets Loving my four pedal board but need a good wah

[@Thesaurcery4U2C]

Just nastiness you don't ever hear like that from most other players @13:10

[@mrtambourine98]

i really hope that you can invite Andy Bell from Ride and James bagshaw from Temples for the next episodes!

[@YTGetReal]

What better way to describe a pedal than to play it ? Struggling for the words and it's right in front of you

[@rodentcafeteria]

He gives me a modern day Frank Marino vibe.

[@diegojesussanchez328]

Aguante 🇦🇷🙌🏻👌🏻👍

[@demianmatts]

Yo tambien escuche que tiene un pedal hecho en argentina!!!!

[@paulblanchet542]

MojoHand Fx Villanova Vibe is a cool univibe-style pedal that takes a battery.

[@slimturnpike]

And how long does it last? 45 min?

[@paulblanchet542]

@@slimturnpike Not exactly sure, but at least several hours. It has a pretty low current draw for a modulation pedal.

[@AMERICANPRIDE1100]

He’s right that Octavia goes much better tone the than a fuzz

[@TheMadShredder]

Is that reissue Tycobrah sold out?

[@paulblanchet542]

Great player...love the P90s, but he should really check out Fralin's hum-cancelling P90s.

[@Ottophil]

He won’t. Dude don’t care about cancelling hum

[@AMERICANPRIDE1100]

Simple is better 5 pedals and he wold sound the same without them I use 3 but i suck

[@justinpalmer6098]

Don looks like Jiminy Cricket next to JJN

[@jameslyons1661]

😊❤️🎸❤️

[@russellzauner]

*chuckles knowingly in Rangemaster*

[@dntinpalevo]

The real question is "what kind of fingers is he using''?

[@howlinthewilderness]

Wait, did he just call his chorus "char-rus"? 03:10

[@thejakefromstatefarm6768]

Jarads a damn giant huh?!? Holy shit didn’t realize how big of a guy he is.

[@travismegale6796]

Good ear

[@Burnt_Gerbil]

Closer to the edge of the speaker, not the cap. A little goes a long way. A high cut filter in post wouldn’t hurt either.

[@truthfactreality6814]

What’s on his pedalboard ? Nothing. But his bloody fingers

[@jasonlee8497]

Love wailing, string bending guitar players…

[@reddeckreallywins]

So basically the very stereotype of a “blues” board. Not knocking him at all but yeah…not real interesting…the board at least.

Boring: generic player
