JHS WEEK - Pulp 'N' Peel Compressor v4

[@jeremyforges]

Man that's really refreshing to see someone smile that much playing ! Great energy ! and review

[@Roxanneredpanda]

and someone who knows more than blues

[@MrRich6505]

I think you just passed up everybody in the demo department. You're playing is not only inspiring, but the excitement you have is contagious. Not only good information, great playing, but a good time. Far better than any living room or finger picker that everyone loves....you're up there with Prymaxe. Keep it up.

[@JayLeonardJ]

+PedalHead Dude, that means a lot. Thanks for taking the time to write; I'll definitely keep these videos going!

[@MrRich6505]

@Ares Case that shit is too funny. Accounts made at the same time coming right behind each other on a comment that hasn't been looked at in years. Go spam someone else. That shit was cheesy.

[@SamFromTheWorryPeople]

I think I've just found my dream compressor 😋 great demo Jay! Really loving this 'JHS week'!

[@DannyShipleyMusic]

This is my favorite demo/playing video of you so far, you are so refreshing to listen to

[@JayLeonardJ]

Thanks!

[@robertiola88]

Enthusiasm, communication, ability, and joy. Nice combination. Well done!

[@JayLeonardJ]

Glad you liked it!

[@robertiola88]

@@JayLeonardJ Oh, forgot to tell you I ordered one thanks to your demo. :)

[@ryanoneill8488]

After watching several demos with this pedal I had to buy it. I fell in love with it in the first ten seconds of playing it!

[@JayLeonardJ]

Yeah, I felt the same way about 10 seconds after I plugged it in :)

[@thehound2161]

JHS has found some great demo sites to display their fantastic lineup of pedals. This is indeed one of them. Well done.

[@pelicannoiseworks3212]

One of the more informative compressor demos I've seen. Nailed it my man!

[@JayLeonardJ]

+Pelican NoiseWorks Thanks. Compressors always are the unsung hero of my pedalboards.

[@lushkordz6643]

Jay lil'J ....the dude that really lives thru music 🔥💎🔥

[@enricodedios2561]

When it comes to JHS pedal demo this is the only youtube guy I go to. I already own this pedal because of this demo.

[@dostacos1]

I love my Pulp n Peel, but after watching this, I realized I’m just scratching the surface of what this baby can do. You’re the man.

[@alexwray]

You are such a joy to watch! You look like you're having so much fun.

[@TheDilligan]

Great cover of Dig a Pony at the end.

[@superflea72]

great playing and demo! this is the first compressor demo that I've watched that's made me want to go out and grab one immediately. I just watched your JHS Morning Glory vid as well. if they don't already, they should pay you man...you just sold two pedals for them. :) subbed. 👍

[@JayLeonardJ]

Thanks so much! The guys at JHS have always been a great team of people to work with and their gear is top notch :) Feel free to give them a shout out and tell them I said hi :)

[@mattgilbert7347]

Could be a good one to stack with my Diamond Yellow (Mooer clone). I love stacking different kinds of comps!

[@lightonthelandscape]

I've always been torn between my old Pulp N' Peel and 2-knob Keeley Compressor and kind of stuck with the Keeley for the last few years. Damn - such a good demo Jay..... have to put the Pulp N' Peel back on the board now.

[@Steve564ify]

Loving the Bon Iver nice too see the softer side of you!:)

[@JayLeonardJ]

+Steve564ify Great ears: I love that tune.

[@stormedbyhippiesc3966]

Hello from Mexico! Best review period. Helping with the recommended setting is really helpful as a place to start. Keep rocking

[@JayLeonardJ]

I really appreciate it. Thanks for watching!

[@harrisfrankou2368]

Dude sick player infectious energy wow! I was on the JHS website ..I've never seen you ever come up. Anyway amazing.

[@JayLeonardJ]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@s3cr3td00rindar00m]

Maaan! Beautiful tone, I would say one of the most beautiful slappies funkies I’ve heard. Great technique

[@kdrexler]

I love everything about this! The playing and the pedal!

[@JayLeonardJ]

Really appreciate it!

[@lynnmorgan3283]

Cool pedal, great playing. Great demo!, Thanks!

[@TheLOLmonstah96]

your playing is phenomenal!!! feelin that groove!

[@hankgalt]

I'm loving Jhs week! Can't wait for the pollinator tomorrow! Great playing and fun delivery, as always

[@JayLeonardJ]

+Joe Sanders You'll love the Pollinator; I found some pretty cool things hidden in there :)

[@hankgalt]

+JayLeonardJ awesome! I've never had a real fuzz pedal. I've had the mxr slash model fuzz octave since when I first set up my board, but I've never liked that fuzz. I like JHS's stuff, and I love the bee graphic since I live in bee cave, tx, ha. But yeah, I read germanium fuzzes were the deal back in the Hendrix days, but that they have temp issues. That shouldn't be a problem for me though since I only play at home and the temp is always the same. Looking forward to it! I may get the pollinator and the muffaletta to be able to go between a fuzz face germanium sound and a muff sound. I mainly am looking for that Hendrix fuzz tone.

[@andrewchae9848]

that sultan swing doe

[@RobertKeeleyTV]

The Dirt Switch, perfectly demoed with 'I Dig a Pony' Sounds fantastic.

[@JayLeonardJ]

+Robert Keeley Thanks so much dude. I'm always a sucker for overdriven compressor tones :)

[@rydes68]

Robert, I would love to hear Jay demoing some of your pedals, especially the Studio specific pedals like the Memphis Sun and the Abbey Road pedals...Love your pedals, have a bunch of them and Jay is a pretty descent player! Cheers...

[@muellerfan19]

I bought the Jhs superbolt and it's great!I love your demo's. Thanks for demoing.

[@JayLeonardJ]

+jason pkeda Congrats, I'm glad you dig it! Thanks so much for watching :)

[@jerryseverson4198]

Great demos dude! Nice playing too!

[@JayLeonardJ]

+Jerry Severson Thanks so much.

[@davebertoletti]

My man, you should be joining the "let's save rock and roll" army. Lovely playing, congrats.

[@JayLeonardJ]

Thanks :)

[@harrisonberry96]

Excellent guitar playing. Very very good I'm highly empresses with this

[@redlizard541]

After seeing you play, I've decided to buy this pedal. I've always lingered on getting it, but you convinced me to get it. Great video, nice playing

[@johno1405]

Fantastic video. Great funky guitar riffs

[@5821262]

How to learn play like that, what is that music called?

[@PaulIsbell]

The pulp n peel with the Keeley Caverns 🤤

[@manuelugartearce8241]

Terrific playing and great demo! Thx!

[@doomorbedoomed8748]

Wow, man. Your playing is off the chain!!

[@christopherhansford6876]

You’re not just funky. You HAVE the funk! Great video. Ive been really torn between Whitey Tighty and the Keeley Compressor. Now this complicates matters even more. Could you compare some of these compressors side by side?

[@Mr7Poz]

Man, you are an incredible player. I never say that on KZbin to anyone.

[@warpfac101]

Your the Sultan of JHS, another great video Jay.

[@JayLeonardJ]

+Dennis Mccann Haha.

[@buckbumble]

You are an incredible guitarist man. Seriously.

[@JayLeonardJ]

Really appreciate it!

[@codybaggett9741]

Hey, Jay! I just wanted to say I've really enjoyed JHS week. Also, have you thought about showing us your favorite pedals? Anyway, take it easy, and keep up the good work!

[@JayLeonardJ]

+Cody Baggett I've been planning on putting a video about my journeyman rig... I just keep getting distracted by all these new pedals, haha.

[@jhonnydoe9146]

Gotta love me some bon iver right there. Your playing is soooo good. Love your reviews!

[@cacodejanon2490]

I always have problems with pedal reviews when the player isn't so good...Then i found this channel! Seriously though i would like to learn from you xD

[@JayLeonardJ]

Thank you so much man! I really appreciate it :)

[@darwinsaye]

I wonder if the gain is happening pre or post compression? I’m guessing it’s probably post.

[@vansongs]

Oh yeah the pedal. Your playing, crikey.

[@WillReynolds88]

Great playing. Love your channel

[@mikemorgenroth4954]

Damn. That sounds fucking amazing. Insane funk player!!!

[@jessereyna7408]

Sounding awesome Jay!!!

[@JayLeonardJ]

Thanks!

[@JonnyRocksAW]

Love the Bon Iver reference. Amazing demo man.

[@JayLeonardJ]

Good ears :)

[@chayseblack4162]

My god you destroyed that Tele, great little vid.

[@dannyJ125]

I would love to see a rundown of your gig setup! Is this the comp you use normally?

[@xchump]

your clean tone was perfect and didn't need any changing....but then you did stomp that pedal and my oh my, apparently it wasn't perfect before!

[@JayLeonardJ]

+xchump I know. What is it about compressors that just makes everything better than awesome?

[@davecarpenter7266]

Wow, so thats how you play the guitar?! Awesome, dude!

[@theprestonsteger]

Dude, I love your playing style. I play guitar, but I want to learn your style. Super funky. Any vids to point me in the right direction?

[@JayLeonardJ]

Anything by Paul Jackson Jr. or Nile Rodgers :)

[@glennmckenzie6799]

Yea, I caught the Nile Rodgers

[@strazzhell]

Goddaaamn haha, condensed x mas (L). How would this pedal compare to the whitey tighty? Im getting this or that one and im not sure

[@MrHuntaaaaa123]

Your playing is so inspiring and ridiculously killer. You can tell you have such a love for playing music. Do you do lessons by any chance?

[@JayLeonardJ]

Thanks so much. There will be LOTS of lessons coming out soon. If there are any things you want me to touch on, never be afraid to ask.

[@JayLeonardJ]

Here is one to start you off: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aHWyoqyBmKifqpo

[@MrHuntaaaaa123]

Sweet! thanks man. have you considered private lessons?

[@hammill444]

Here's a question that's been on my mind of late. Have you ever used a compressor pedal in the effects loop? Have you ever considered using it that way?

[@JayLeonardJ]

You can get some great tones that way, but I would recommend finding a really quiet and transparent comp and dialing it in for some nice studio style smoothing 👍

[@tallynbrazell4306]

Great audio examples, a week of strymon would be awesome!

[@JayLeonardJ]

That WOULD be a blast! I gotta make a friend at Strymon :)

[@jonathandenney7684]

Compared with the SP compressor, which is the best one for all-around use? Preferably which one will function the best with multiple different drives, fuzzes, and modulators? Also, which one will still keep the dynamics of my tone, but still compress it enough to increase sustain and volume of quieter techniques?

[@JayLeonardJ]

The SP is a great compressor too! There is definitely a lot more squash with the SP. The Pulp N Peel sounds less like a typical Dynacomp style pedal and more like the natural compression of a guitar amp being exaggerated. In a perfect world, buy both and run them at the same time; that is what a lot of our slide heroes do :)

[@jonathandenney7684]

+JayLeonardJ Thanks man! Also, quick question. What is your opinion on reliced guitars? I'm not opposed to it, but I love the look of this telecaster. Is it reliced?

[@sanvai7205]

Good play and good smile

[@johno1405]

What is the acoustic piece you play?? Ive got to get the tab

[@jamesnortonofficial1566]

Like the dirt switch nice !!

[@jbkivontop]

Great job on the demo. I am wondering what compressor pedal are you currently using?

[@effectsjunkie8530]

Yo Leonardo, are you reamping the pedals before it goes into your DAW? (ps. I have no idea what I'm talking about)

[@JayLeonardJ]

+Effects Junkie haha... For this series: Princeton head to a DAW Speaker Sim.

[@ChiliPumpTheFunk]

This pulp n peel compressor or Keeley compressor plus? Thoughts.

[@JayLeonardJ]

I like the Pulp N' Peel almost as a colored Clean boost: great for goosing your amp for some solos or lead lines. The Keeley is just the classic Squishy Ross style comp with an extended fidelity. Both are awesome!

[@OgamiItto70]

What was that, a countrified version of _Life By The Drop?_ Nice review and nice playing. It can be tough to demo compressors on KZbin, since their algorithm already compresses the audio; you managed to get the point across anyway. Way to go, dude.

[@Billywagner22]

Nice demo, what amp were you using? You have a great feel for funk.

[@JayLeonardJ]

+Billy Wagner Thanks so much. You're listening to a Princeton NR with a Cab Sim :)

[@scooter5005]

Perfect! bout all the tones I need at Church

[@a4amyli]

The happiest guitarist

[@KoolKatDave]

Jay, another winner! I just ordered a Pulp 'N' Peel for myself. What Tele is the blue one - original or reissue? Thanks!

[@JayLeonardJ]

+KoolKatDave It is a 2011 Custom Shop Bigsby (the relic job was mostly gig wear). You'll love the compressor! It's awesome :)

[@daviddorrian5349]

Would anyone recommend this as a Di box for playing in a duet with my acoustic. Would it be more useful than a standard di box?

[@JayLeonardJ]

I've used it as a DI for acoustic a few times with great results :)

[@mandofrog]

I'm wondering the same thing. My acoustics (guitar, fiddle, mandolin) do not have onboard preamps. Many acoustic guitars on the market have built-in preamps, so it's not an issue. Couldn't tell from the video.

[@fredn2735]

Pulp n peel make that tele squeal ..... awesome

[@chrismathers]

Your playing and feel is so inspiring!! What amp are you using in this? Sounds fender-like.. Princeton?

[@JayLeonardJ]

+Chris Mathers Great ears :)

[@Brucaleeffo]

That sneaky Bon Iver - Blindsided

[@jeffhebert9643]

Just subscribed . ...what amp are you running through ?

[@JayLeonardJ]

Thanks for the sub! If I remember correctly, it was a Princeton NR.

[@hosoiarchives4858]

What kind of finish is that on the tele

[@JayLeonardJ]

A very light Nitro layer of Lake Placid Blue :)

[@lighthauskeeper]

Sold me!

[@marinepilot5723]

Killer Tele! What kind of pickups?

[@JayLeonardJ]

Virgil Arlos :)

[@Dr.Fingertips]

Excellent!!!

[@dtworzguitar5775]

Dude...your the coolest 😉

[@tomsy49]

What is the acoustic song you play at the end?! That is magical and I would love to learn that one!

[@JayLeonardJ]

+tomsy49 It's my old dependable Martin 00-18V. It was one of the last Mahogany neck ones and sounds like Christmas.

[@tomsy49]

+JayLeonardJ it is beautiful! I was also wondering what the song you play with it is?!

[@JayLeonardJ]

+tomsy49 It is "Landslide" by Fleetwood Mac.

[@tomsy49]

+JayLeonardJ thank you! Hello from Saskatchewan and Keep up the awesome work on the videos! My favourite demos!

[@anderoso85]

That acoustic sounds mic’d! What pickup are you using? Looks like some sort of LR Baggs.

[@foxxygearreviews7754]

God this is a great demo.

[@JayLeonardJ]

Yeah! Thanks :)

[@songswithryan]

Are the pickups on your Telecaster stock?

[@JayLeonardJ]

+wrf1973 I've been using these pickups: kzbin.info/www/bejne/raexh5yfqrtlmZI

[@aboc500]

hey! what bridge piece is that on your tele?

[@JayLeonardJ]

+Michael Guillot A Mastery Bridge: the single greatest purchase you can make for a Bisby Tele, Jazzmaster, or Jaguar... Trust me ;)

[@aboc500]

+JayLeonardJ Yeah! It looked like a mastery bridge! I have a tele that I am thinking about throwing a bigsby on, is that actual bridge piece from mastery as well? I know the saddles are. And does that roll with the strings as you are bending on the bigsby?

[@JayLeonardJ]

+Michael Guillot Yup it is the whole bridge piece! It slightly moves with Bigsby depending on how tight you have it set. No tuning issues... so far, haha

[@bumblefritz]

What is the song that starts at 5:30-ish?

[@JayLeonardJ]

+bumblefritz Bon Iver - Blindsided. Enjoy

[@justinmartin7437]

Bro you rock

[@rigobertovalenzuela3194]

when trying to describe sound, " rickity, tickity " is way better than organicness, liquidness.... :P

[@Fenderlin6]

Can you please make Walrus Audio Demos?

[@JayLeonardJ]

+Pablo Colon I would love to!!! Just gotta steal one somewhere...

[@BillyRogan]

Too bad they didn't use a foot stomp switch for the dirt/gain option! Otherwise this is a damn near perfect dream pedal

[@JayLeonardJ]

Haha, I don't think the world could handle the awesomeness of that combination :)

[@buzzcrumhunger7114]

JayLeonardJ I was really hoping for that dirt switch though...

[@mattlynn7254]

BillyRogan you could get a red switch from them

[@Magic_Man916]

It's like you sold your soul to the devil to be able to play guitar.. and you're still shocked you can play so well

[@ihsanfikriprabowo]

BAMMMM!!! SUBBED

[@JayLeonardJ]

I appreciate it!

[@danvarg18]

haha you're so cool dude! i'm suscribed!

[@JayLeonardJ]

I really appreciate it! Welcome to the channel :)

[@Space_pulse]

Lol I feel like 70% of compressor videos play Sultans of Swing

[@jimmoulton9878]

Ok. des is best!!!

[@andreasdjamas9808]

it make me angry how good you are at playing that thing

[@fabiantrujillo5284]

Amazing demo/playing😁. Hey, I just got myself a Pulp n Peel v4 too but it doesn't quite sound like yours. A bit frustrated though cos I can't make the breakup go away, I can though lower it by dialling down the blend knob but there will always be a bit of clipping. I'm using an Ibanez semihollow with humbuckers. I aslo tried it on a nylon string acoustic Going straight into my interface. Any thoughts anybody ?

[@AmoreMusicale]

What amp are you playing through?

[@JayLeonardJ]

If I remember correctly, it may have been a Princeton NR.

[@discowhisper]

dude. boss.

[@ipris3971]

hot dayum!
