LINE 6 HELIX This drive pedal does EVERYTHING !

[@limpeacock573]

The awesome presets hits just keep coming! Thanks so much, Jonny!

[@JonnyLeeguitarist]

No problem mate , thanks for watching

[@sjsphotog]

Killer killer tons and playing here JL. you ALWAYS rock the house. So so inspiring. Need to get off my butt and pull out my guitars and Helix and play again. Thanks for the not m()m one (haha) but TWO free presets. Too many channels have stopped doing free presets. Sadly. Keep it up.

[@JonnyLeeguitarist]

Thanks dude

[@draxbak]

Yeehaa! more goodies to melt my eardrums with. Love that drive setting mate. I love the ping pong delay because I use 2 katana 50s and it just sounds massive... Cheers pal and thanks again.

[@JonnyLeeguitarist]

Have fun mate

[@wilfriedcwik3475]

Best fuzzsound on the helix I ever heard!

[@JonnyLeeguitarist]

Yeah it’s pretty special 😎

[@newstuff1107]

Killer lead tone. 😮

[@JonnyLeeguitarist]

Thanks mate .

[@Ray-um3if]

Hi Jonny, thanks for these presets and bringing my attention to the Clawthorn, never tried it, infact never even noticed it as it is right down the very bottom of the list in HX Edit. Cheers.

[@JonnyLeeguitarist]

My pleasure!

[@veciroker]

I had helix about 4 years and never noticed that drive. Now it's too late because i sold it, but this sounds so good. Interesting!

[@JonnyLeeguitarist]

If you ever return , now you have the knowledge 😎

[@picksalot1]

What the hell - Clawthorn Drive?! Never heard of it or recall running across it in my HX Stomp. Will definitely have to check it out. Love what I'm hearing in your video! Thanks

[@JonnyLeeguitarist]

Let me know how it goes .

[@picksalot1]

@@JonnyLeeguitarist I remember this Effect now. It's a dual Effect, one part being the Overdrive, and the other being a Fuzz. The Fuzz tone is really bright, so I switched the Cab Mic to the 84 Ribbon. As you mentioned, there is a lot of Gain on tap. Between the Gain, Bright Fuzz, and big incremental changes in the Levels, I find it difficult to dial in tone I like. You got better much results than I could get.

[@JonnyLeeguitarist]

@@picksalot1 yeah it can be an all or nothing type of effect , but once you hit that spot it’s magic 😎

[@picksalot1]

@@JonnyLeeguitarist I was messing around with the Grammatico on my HX Stomp, and the Dhyana Drive I was using just wasn't doing I wanted so I scrolled through the different available ODs just listening tohow their tones affected my Preset. Surprisingly, the Hedgehog caught my attention, even though most ODs are not supposed to pair well with Dumble Amps. I got some awesome tones. Even one with the Gain on the Hedgehog turned all the way down. Thanks for doing a video on the Hedgehog.

[@JonnyLeeguitarist]

@@picksalot1 yeah sometimes you just have to sit and scroll thru and find a great pairing . Cheers mate

[@22planks]

Well - thorn me claws! Thanks, I have grabbed the presets and subscribed

[@JonnyLeeguitarist]

Thanks for the sub!

[@2n3chordjams70]

Looks like I got a BUSY morning later, quite a bit to pick through here, VERY KOOL and THANX Jonny !!!! btw a lifetime ago I used to wear flares 😎🙃

[@JonnyLeeguitarist]

They might be still in fashion !

[@davidmeatty5922]

Jayzus Jonny! Those presets kill! You could stun a Rhino at 50 paces with either of them.

[@JonnyLeeguitarist]

😂. Thanks man

[@maxiko1238]

Two really cool presets. I use it with my Gibson LP with PAF Style Pickups - sounds awesome. Instead of the Kinky Boost i always use the Tube Comp (Thresh 0,8 Level 0,2 ) in the same position. Give it a try. !

[@JonnyLeeguitarist]

That’s awesome , whatever works for you 🙏

[@LuisM_Piozza]

Thanks a lot, our friend! It's a pedal that has so far been rather unknown in Helix; I think I thought of it as "only for metal" ☺☺ Pure prejudice, 😁😁

[@JonnyLeeguitarist]

Yeah it covers a few genres for sure 👌🏻

[@justintrethewey3195]

Brilliant!

[@JonnyLeeguitarist]

Cheers mate 🙏

[@nickjanice6356]

Watched this earlier today and tried it out for about 1/2 hour, jeez what a pedal. Let you know how I get on. Cheers Jonny, keep it up (if you know what I mean).

[@JonnyLeeguitarist]

Yeah it’s pretty good 😎

[@jamespitman3357]

On fire jonny. That fuzz could kills mosquitos at 50 metres. Especially liked the first preset. Thats getting put on. A bit more dsp i could load all your presets.

[@JonnyLeeguitarist]

Yeah the fuzz is pretty cool .

[@philipcandella3064]

I love the presets you create & use a lot of them. The one question I always have & it is likely more self doubt is are there any tweaks I should make for using them live into a PA. I'm going from Helix to a direct box then the PA. I only really hear what is in my in ears sometimes it seems a little harsh it could also be ear fatigue after playing 2 sets the next 2 my ears are done even at a reasonable volume. People say my tone it great but it may be just in my head self doubt.

[@JonnyLeeguitarist]

I always gig check my presets at gig volume , usually it’s best to put a cali graphic EQ in the preset ( before or after the cab ) if I haven’t already put it in , this will help you “ easy tweak “ at a gig . Each guitar / amp / monitor / PA is different, but usually you’ll be fine .

[@philipcandella3064]

Thanks I figured it was more in my head that the tone. that's of the tip oil the cali too. @@JonnyLeeguitarist

[@_TFL]

Belter. 🎸 Quick question luv. FM worth it v Helix? I’m using the Tonex for amp sim so would only use the fx side. I’ve got half me set up on separate pedals but I may as well get them in an all in one. For just FX, the HX as good as the FM? Does this even make sense? Hope so! 😎🙏

[@JonnyLeeguitarist]

It kinda makes sense 😂. I would always encourage anyone to buy an FM9 😎. Tone X is great with an HX stomp , but I genuinely prefer the Fractal FM9.

[@artytoney2057]

Shit load of gain makes me happy mr Johnny great preset

[@JonnyLeeguitarist]

Good good gain 😎

[@rjung_ch]

You are, without a doubt, the MASTER of Helix Programming. Do you offer private Helix Lessons?

[@JonnyLeeguitarist]

Cheers mate , I don’t really due to lack of time . Most basic stuff I cover here . But feel free to ask here or add me on Facebook.

[@muurimc]

Oh, we have THAT kind of pedal in Helix? Never seen or tested that one...

[@JonnyLeeguitarist]

Yep it’s hiding in there .

[@dotnetdave4356]

Is the sound direct or through an amp?

[@JonnyLeeguitarist]

Everything you hear is into the line 6 helix , then into mixing desk and out to camera , no DAW or processing.
