Mike Scheidt of YOB - Gear Tour

[@nitzer280]

Mike is so humble and down to earth and so incredibly accomplished all at the same time. Total respect for his musicianship. His guitar tone can fill most small to medium sized countries.

[@DoesItDoom]

Awesome video, guys! Interesting and insightful. Mike is such an incredible guitarist.

[@FuzzlordEffects]

thanks Steve! It was so cool get a glimpse into his setup!

[@EasyHeat]

Freaking dope dude. YOB is freaking wicked AF. I really dig watching this channel take off. Obviously you've been putting in the hard work. Seriously kick ass dude.

[@lactatethrashold4704]

He's an incredible person too

[@timmysvensson4902]

Indeed!! Fuzzlord if you do Another video with him someday i bet me and alot of others would really like to hear about his approach to picking, he got a unique style using his pick/fingers

[@stepitupandgo67]

Hell yeah...nobody out there like him

[@ZakkiLowe]

Mike is easily one of my all time favorite musicians to grace this planet.

[@FuzzlordEffects]

He is so badass!

[@expendedelectricity]

Man those chord voicings are incredible. Mike should be such a more well known guitarist for his writing and technique. YOB 4 LIFE

[@saltpeter7429]

I stumbled upon YOB about 6 months ago. I'm not a big fan of "stoner rock" or "doom" or what not, let me rephrase that, I dont care enough to know what genre a band is in, if I like em I like em. I saw the interesting guitar in his hands on display at the CD store, the cover of Live at Roadburn 2012. I was like, "who's this dude? Cool lookin guitar, never seen one of those". I'm glad I judged a book by its cover, or was curious enough to hear what that guitar sounded like. Great band, interesting sounds.

[@phnelson033]

Man....Mike's fret board hand is so precise and efficient with chords/shapes/transitions. He's like America's doom equivalent to Johnny Marr.

[@wintermute7142]

Mike is the reason I started to play guitar. He is and will always be my biggest inspiration, so happy to see him here.

[@j.alexandermyersen1176]

Discovered YOB last year. Their song Marrow is now my favorite song of all time.

[@gummo133]

When I hear that part of Marrow, I immediately start to cry. Just transcendent.

[@Necrodelirium]

Mike uses such unorthodox chord voicings and progressions. It would be so interesting to delve deep into his background and how he comes up with these. Unique balance between beautiful and brutal.

[@loganmccurter]

Revolver did a mini doc on his life. He came from a sort of bluegrass background musically with a small cult punk scene in his small home town.

[@user-bf6gz8ej4o]

I think it's when you like playing open notes and discover that you just can alter the tonic of each chord to achieve a completely different effect. Try it yourself, learn some songs and you'll see what I mean!

[@benk3624]

YOB is such a special band. Great guys too

[@FuzzlordEffects]

yes!

[@GOAT-rl2uq]

Mike is such an interesting guitarist, I love his playing style

[@alexwood8555]

Such a good video Jason, appreciate what you do for the community! Thanks to Mike from us gear nerds out here.

[@FuzzlordEffects]

I really appreciate that and so glad you liked the video! It was really nice of Mike to make the time to stop by and talk about his awesome gear setup and play some music for everyone!

[@philsonwilson8221]

„Perfect Mix of brutal and beautiful“ describes the sound of Yob perfectly 😅

[@xFallnessx]

Thanks for taking the time to do this.

[@FuzzlordEffects]

Cheers!

[@jimm8594]

I’d like to see a four knob compressor added to the Fuzzlord effect pedal lineup, the “soul crusher”. Let’s gooooooo!

[@FuzzlordEffects]

that would be awesome!

[@tomparkin5300]

It was wonderful hearing Mike talk about his setup. That discussion of the phaser v.s. the flanger was really beautiful, the way he summed it up. Fantastic video, thank you.

[@Ptrhairis]

Thanks so much for this video! It’s wonderful to hear Mike explain his sounds. Eric did a great job asking questions that got him to expand, super interesting.

[@FuzzlordEffects]

thanks for watching Josh!

[@nickmetal131]

David Gilmour and Mike Scheidt are the reasons I went back to a phaser many years ago. This was a great rig rundown!

[@zappasmoustache23]

I saw yob at desert fest in London last year, just an incredible sound, so huge and loud without losing any clarity. Beautiful noise.

[@viniv20]

Had same effect on me at Desertfest Berlin last year. I went for my first Electric Wizard show, but also was my first YOB show earlier that day and they blew me away more than EW tbh, much better tone on all spectrums. Especially since how echoey the venue was ! Their song , the lie that is sin gave me goosebumps !

[@VanWhyDesigns]

Much kudos to Eric for the great filming. Nice job.

[@jefft8018]

Mike is such a fantastic guitarist. Nobody sounds like him. And great interview, very informative and enjoyable.

[@FuzzlordEffects]

thaks for watching Jeff!

[@pipedreamermetal]

This answered so many questions! From riffs to pedal settings to PEDAL SETTINGS FOR CERTAIN RIFFS! Really covered all the bases and sounded killer. That Dark Master is kinda callin my name.. Thank you Fuzzlord!

[@darrenpritchard7926]

An absolute pleasure to watch! Mike's a total legend!!!

[@fuzznautdoom]

This is awesome! Love the pedal choices and Mikes playing style is legendary. Also dig the warriors shirt.

[@FuzzlordEffects]

Yes and yes!

[@kbkman7742]

Quantum mystic is one of my favorite dirt pedals. I love Yob's work... 10:20 has to be the intro to my favourite yob song of all

[@davidslattery6750]

Been wanting to see a yob guitar rig rundown for years especially after seeing them live in 2016 so thank you very much. Now im off to buy a phaser pedal!

[@FuzzlordEffects]

Thank you for watching David!

[@NathanRutland850]

Thanks for this informative video. Yob has such a unique sound and style that I love. Big thanks to you and Mike.

[@FuzzlordEffects]

thanks for watching Nathan!

[@veyuslavic2590]

Glad to see Fuzzlord pedals on a legend's pedalboard. About damn time!

[@hommedammn7132]

That was a great gear tour with great questions by Eric. I’ve loved Yob for years; it was fun to get a peak into not only Scheidt’s gear, but his unique process. Side notes: I’ve been a proud owner of the Shepard’s End and an Eterna for years. My best bud has a first run Quantum Mystic and a Monson guitar.

[@-vb-1592]

What a talent, thanks for this excellent rig run down!

[@FuzzlordEffects]

Thanks for watching!

[@joshuataft5541]

It's so good to hear him talk about lead and delay..I'm the same way I can play rythem but my lead consist of pentatonic runs and that's it..takes a man to admit that

[@CabinetSausage]

The whole world is built out of pentatonic noodles. Keep going!

[@tite93]

A great insight into Mike's tone! Thank you so much for this interview

[@FuzzlordEffects]

thanks for watching Thorn!

[@jaredt3985]

I only clicked on this because I saw Mike and I’m a huge YOB fan. But now I know about this kickass pedal company too, and I subscribed.

[@FuzzlordEffects]

Thanks for watching Jared!

[@ThisGuy7310]

Great video! Mike is such an incredible player

[@FuzzlordEffects]

For sure!

[@GMHG777]

Some killer tones here by Mike the dude is such an emotive player and his sound is super unique to him. Super cool vid !!!

[@rockpebble100]

Mike is a legend. Great interview!

[@FuzzlordEffects]

thanks for watching!

[@Umbrey_Dunctum]

Never heard of this band before…Marrow is an incredibly deep and affecting song.

[@MLoerAudio]

Incredible musician, awesome dude. Thanks for sharing!

[@VitrificationOfBlood]

Such a great video, very insightful. Also respect for the fact that you let Mike get in depth with pedals from competitors in the game.

[@mistershabadoo]

So killer to see a rundown of Mike’s pedal chain and to hear some killer riffs. He’s an inspiration! Super awesome video! Loving it!

[@atonegames]

Dude, I love that song

[@FuzzlordEffects]

cheers Dude!

[@jordanmayer5932]

This is one of the best gear guides I've ever seen

[@ShewolfOvDenver]

Adore Mike and have been fascinated by his gear for years. About half of my pedalboard is based on his exquisite YOB work (Whirlwind phaser, EQD Avalanche Run, Warden compressor, Black Arts Toneworks fuzz, Mr. Black reverb). Thanks for arranging such a special look with such a special musician! 🖤

[@melindaking7944]

Criminally underrated riff lord

[@jeffdill]

Mike is a legend. Awesome video.

[@FuzzlordEffects]

thanks for watching Jeff!

[@sanderpastoor7025]

I wish more gear videos were like this. Whole lot of playing, little talking inbetween. Keep it up!

[@ikestoddard2458]

Very nice! Rig review I really wanted to see! Thanks!

[@FuzzlordEffects]

Thanks for watching Ike!

[@ikestoddard2458]

@@FuzzlordEffects And Mike is an uncomplicated explained. I appreciate that. Another point: guitar review of his or similar Monsoon, please!

[@doombringer1505]

Answered a few questions about Mike's tone for me. Great video! Especially intrigued by that Eterna pedal. Was shocked by his string gauges! Git'cher fuzz on!

[@koffieverslaafde627]

So much gain, yet so much clarity

[@russellzauner]

Dang. last time I saw Yob was at Dante's back in...uh...oh man. Always great to see people alive, not a joke. :-) Everyone be well and stay safe.

[@gri7]

He makes it look so easy and effortless And yet when I tried it's hard as hell weird chord shapes and fingering that melts my brain

[@75Pollux]

Long time fan, Mike tone is perfect for me, huge, dense, but with some clarity.

[@pittuthead]

Awesome interview guys, very true when described sound as "beautiful n' brutal" 💪🏼🔥🤘🏼

[@FuzzlordEffects]

great description!

[@priser24]

"That perfect mix of brutal and beautiful." If that doesn't encapsulate Yob, I don't know what does.

[@joshbeer414]

Woe really cool. My guitar tech actually worked on at least one of mikes guitars. So unreal

[@FuzzlordEffects]

thats so cool!

[@bergz77]

yes a very incredible guitarist and holy shit way to navigate those pedals love your band man got many albums!! thank you for the great music and lyrics

[@mj-ls7qr8xp3n]

Great video! 7:50 love.

[@FuzzlordEffects]

thanks for watching!

[@uzelbruzel]

YOB IS LOVE 💚

[@RobbieTayVaughan]

I can't remember where mom lived at the time, Bend or Eugene maybe. She's old but still a music head too, and was like "Bobby, you know YOB?" "I've been telling him(Mike maybe?) all about how you play in a band too in Tacoma, and I'm so proud" lol I was like "Yeah show him my music and get me on a show lol!" Nothing happened, but I thought it was pretty wholesome and cool. I wonder if he remembers or if was actually a different member. Cheers!

[@gheorge77]

I have to also say that I bought a Monsoon guitar a few years back after hearing Mike talk about them and it is by far the best guitar I have ever played or picked up. I've got the Pale Horse No 6 and it's just a gorgeous guitar that works amazing downtuned. It's a shame that Dunables have gotten way more attention then Brent's work, which look nicer and play better.

[@jamesquirk8656]

Ehhhhh, Sasha has a far better rep than Monson Guitars. One thing that lowered Monson in my mind was finding out that he used Carvin blank necks on about half of his work. That was about a decade ago, not sure if that's still the case. But it took away from the idea that Monson's are fully custom-made instruments - which the U.S. Dunables certainly are.

[@jessellis5466]

One thing that doesnt help Monson is the over the top body shapes. Much too 'metal' for most people.

[@rasmusolesen5307]

Great video. I need a Sheppards End in my life.

[@FuzzlordEffects]

hell yeah!

[@BruceHamiltonmusic]

Mike is a hero of mine!

[@Jubular]

Mike is just magical ✨

[@FuzzlordEffects]

he sure is!

[@joelsczesny382]

Man his sound is always perfect! Now I really regret selling my Quantum Mystic... oh and please release a version of your dark master with tap tempo🙏🙏🙏

[@DrRepper]

Analogue delay and tap tempo don't go together, unfortunately. You'll probably vomit, but trust me on this: Get a NUX Tape Core.

[@FuzzlordEffects]

I regret not having a Quantum Mystic!

[@imantssafronovs9245]

Nux Tape Core is good?

[@DrRepper]

@@imantssafronovs9245 really good. I picked one up a couple of years ago just on a whim as it was cheap and it's never come off my board. Doesn't really sound like tape, more analogue, but has tap tempo, an expression pedal port and is stereo, and most importantly it sounds really, really good

[@T-Hawkeyes]

@@DrRepper that’s an interesting perspective.

[@mattharris1217]

That quantum mystic is so powerful live it’s like he switches amps. It’s almost as if the distortion comes from the clarity and volume

[@Jamesp1972]

The greatest heavy guitarist out there

[@ColtimusDoomicus]

Now that's an interesting signal path, I think I'm gonna try it like that

[@joshww2339]

This is too sick!

[@FuzzlordEffects]

Thanks Josh!

[@Yeti_Boop]

The tones are awesome. And Mike seems like such a good dude. I'd love to hang and jam with that man.

[@Serphwratt]

Amazing video man. It would be rad if you did a YOB collab with the Dark Master pedal!

Mike is DEFINITELY one of The Very BEST in the Doom/Stoner Genre for sure!!!! .... I just want to know the TUNINGS he plays In??!! On ALL of YOB's Songs. I've been needing to know for Many Many Years now!! Someone help me out? I was told a long time ago that Alot of Yob's Songs are in A-Standard? But I'm still Not 100% Sure if this is Correct or Not?

[@fallenshallrise]

99% sure it's all A-Standard A D G C E A. It's just all the voicings and ringing open strings that can make things feel like an open tuning sometimes I think.
