Killer board Josh! Won't be long before it's on stages all over the world....With you at the helm

[@JoshSmithGuitar]

Thanks my friend!!!!

[@jrn9872]

@@JoshSmithGuitar hi Josh, I saw Brian working on your board when I turned mine in: Gladio, The Dane, and possibly compressor creating static...I guess now I feel its going to be a job well done even more/ J-E - The Swede

[@thejakefromstatefarm6768]

It’s on alot of stages now. All over the world. And josh being such a great guy I’m glad to see he’s staying busy. I love your playing josh. Josh is as close to Stevie as you can get one minute and his self the next. You can do Stevie but you make your money with your own sound. I love that.

[@88grinder]

Love seeing Josh this excited. Happy Holidays!

[@tephros19]

What an absolute versatile monster of a board. That fade-in panned delay through the vox would be so cool to hear in person

[@LeonTodd]

There's some wild routing going on there - sick to see you using the Digit on there too!

[@danielhoskins4690]

I know I’d be so lost trying to use that on stage! I love the idea of it, but know how my mind contracts when in the heat of battle.

[@JimmyDel]

That sounds unreal!!! Never get tired of the Myriad. The Poly looks very interesting. I'm getting a H9 soon that will cover a lot of ground for me. That board is and tidy cabling too.

[@JasonMcFly]

Amazing and innovative tones Josh! Thanks for sharing the secrets, no way we'd ever guess how it works by listening to the tones haha

[@joesatchton212]

Josh, you are that rare breed - a perfect combination of sheer talent mixed with true gear nerd love and creativity. Yeah, that rulez.... Congrats brotha....EPIC. But ya killed us all with that hard cut in the video just as you were tearing it up. lol

[@wizaxed]

Great board, Josh! Can't wait until we can get a chance to watch you perform live on stage!!! Come out to Chicago and rock some jazzy blues!!!!!

[@TheFeelButton]

Somebody made the nice list! Beautiful board Josh!!

[@liquidSpin]

Man, that blending portion of the video gave me goosebumps! I NEEED THIS for my setup!

[@rustysguitar1]

That board covers a lot of ground! You gave me a lot to think about! Thanks

[@iamtwine]

these tones are just absolutely rad. From this video, I gathered so many different options to help my single coils really stick out. Thank You, man!

[@JoshSmithGuitar]

Glad to help!

[@justinguitarcia]

killer board Josh! Man that Poly pedal is wild

[@justinoneil6971]

That blended fuzz was almost an instant Eric Johnson vibe. Ruling indeed!

[@dylanapivor3743]

Always so much fun watching Josh play 👍

[@donjoefonzarelli9785]

Dude I don't know much about you but I know I've seen you before (Rig Rundown?) but I've been blown away from the outset. Your playing and tone are amazing. Subscribed.

[@massimos6863]

Awesome Josh killer pedal board and awesome playing ❤🎸👍👍

[@jasonpitts8395]

That Kingtone Soloist is sick!!

[@DanielSeriffMusic]

Man, sounds so killer! Been loving the Preamp pedal as well.

[@JoshSmithGuitar]

Thanks bro. Hope you are well!

[@telecasteroil]

Those two amps sound wonderous!!!!!! Rules indeed!!!

[@NickGranville]

Dude! That board is ruling. Seriously, has it all covered. Merry Christmas man, hope to see you in the new year when the madness settles

[@JoshSmithGuitar]

Can't wait!

[@dzjc01]

Alright kids, this is how a professional designs and uses a pedalboard. Awesome board Josh!!

[@WayneMemphisMojo]

Excellent rundown

[@jordmosselman3403]

Nice!!! Now, i am in luck having dropped to the floor, when my jaw fell open it didnt hurt as much!! Merry xmas and the best new year in good health!!!

[@JBG949]

It's the OUTSTANDING PLAYER....the tonal flavors are a bonus...I'm quite sure he could make a broom 🧹 sound other worldly. 👌🏿

[@moudja]

Wow that’s really inspiring! Amazing! Thanks

[@TJauernigElectronics]

Josh. The mixer is interesting indeed . I made a pedal that did that years ago ( parallel dementia). About the same time I was doing tremolos for you. Way cool tones man. YOU ARE RULING!

[@tmitz73]

Very Cool Josh!!!

[@danielcarr7969]

very interested in the one control stereo loop! that’s genius! great board

[@JoshSmithGuitar]

will be announced soon. Just posted about it on my instagram.

[@8466849]

Super powerful board! Thumbs up from a TPS fan. One note: I heard clipping on the left channel throughout so try to set the gain correctly next time. Really enjoyed 'rulin' as your go-to phrase.

[@bobbaumeister5243]

This board is intergalactical and Killer. Josh - you're the ruler👍👍👍☄️☄️🏋️☄️☄️👍👍👍

[@absenceunk1586]

This is so awesome! Killer tones and playing and you make it look like nothing 😂 so cool

[@JoshSmithGuitar]

Thanks!

[@marcospiezia127]

A freggin mazin dude!!! I hope I’ll manage to make a pedalboard with your knowledge before I hit my 70’s birthday 🤦🏽‍♂️😆

[@billtice5057]

Very cool!

Your journey has musicians become success 💙🎵🎶🎶

[@kane6529]

I have an Morningstar MC8 that I use with my hx stomp and it’s absolutely amazing!

[@Jay-fp4ii]

Freaking Amazing!

[@timsellsted521]

Hey @josh smith My favorite is a tube screamer. I stack a pair of them. One is pretty much always on. The other I use for a more overdriven sound. There are so many cool toys out there....but I always come back to the screamers.

[@JoshSmithGuitar]

nice

[@druwk]

Great modern board for classic sounds, and beyond! It is truly amazing what you packed into that board. Modern pedals can do so much, so well. Just being able to pick an individual amp/overdrive/Fuzz tone for every song, or part in real time, is mind blowing? How cool would it be to dial in studio quality tones for everything your playing? Reality is though, most people don’t need that many different sounds. The more traditional your genres of playing are, the less you need. I play Blues, Classic Rock, Blues-Jazz, Old School Funk, R&B and Roots. It would be great to have 5 or 6 different flavors of amps and overdrive, with some different levels of effects, and Fuzz. The Chase Bliss preamp, and the Multi effects pedal (plus a Wah, and a boost) would be more than enough for me. Not sure if the programming learning curve would be worth the effort? -- Prog Rock, Prog Metal, Alternative Rock, Alternative Country, Variety-Cover Bands, Home experimenters, Studio Pro’s, Professional guitar players...this kind of set up would be incredible.

[@6stringmyles]

Fuckin wild man. It’s pretty much the ultimate rig brotha! So much room for activities!

[@tonepilot]

You’re like a kid in a candy store. I was smiling along with you.

[@gktde9874]

Can`t wait to see you again in Germany!

[@jackbraver]

YES. I've been waiting for this type of loop. 9:20

[@mikesharpsongs]

GLORIOUS!!!

[@benskurbe]

Insane board! I wonder how much could be done w just the automatone, large myriad, poly and H9. Those four pedals alone could be a whole board. Hell any two of them could be.

[@JoshSmithGuitar]

Yep, a ton.

[@hatuliko2009]

LOVE IT!

[@peterdegoeij6234]

Amazing board, but my head is spinning - just too many options for me ;) Keep the videos coming Josh!

[@bigwavedave8492]

Dan would be proud!!!!!

[@bluztime5271]

Another cool pedalboard. It’s always interesting to see the next evolution. I always wondered where you have the Argonaut, after fuzzes and OD, before them or a combination?

[@Dungeon_of_Regret]

2:50 "and it sounds like this:" badass, man... Face melting.. kind of a jack white moment there.

Amazing.

Wonderful!!!

[@jakestewartmusic]

10/10 monarchs agree that this pedalboard is ruling

[@stratjed]

yeah man ! over lockdown I started building a small for me throw and go board, duplicating pedals from my main board so no swapping pedals ! Grew into about 2k worth of board that I use with a 200 dollar katana 50 ! hahaha but no sharing pedals between boards cuz that sucks .so bare bones would be katana with built in effects then katana with small board then small board with fender deluxe then main board with deluxe or twin or boogie or all three (some day ) so all about options .That board looks like a prop from a science fiction movie josh cant call yourself a blues brother with that can ya ?

[@electricgypsyblues4761]

You need to bring this board by Pete, it will blow his freakin mind lol

[@alvich]

This is like rocket science

[@danielhoskins4690]

Hey Josh, thanks for the board tour. Is there any chance you could do an interview with Jessie Davey? I get the feeling he avoids the limelight away from the stage but I think a conversation between you both would be fascinating. Thanks, Dan

[@JoshSmithGuitar]

Good idea!

Only Josh Smith can play licks like that whilst flipping open a pedalboard AT THE SAME TIME! I tried it but I electrocuted my face...man this guy is incredible at all facets of the instrument🩸 😓 😭 🎸 🪨 on.

[@DavidMorales008]

Awesome

[@marcelgaryjames]

Hey Josh, I have a Tchula too and love the touch sensitivity and clarity it gives. It seems Lovepedal may be out of action for a while. Do you recommend buying a back up Tchula or will they be in production again ? My love pedal amp 11 boost side broke which gets me worried about the Tchula going next. Thanks

[@BandOfJimis]

Pretty Fricken cool is RIGHT!!!

[@gitarbangsatchanel8036]

Killer 🔥🔥

[@cameronwalshguitar]

Tidy vid Josh. How long do the batteries last before you have to replace them?

Unreal. Youve reached the peak of tone.

[@carterwilkinson5618]

This video is ruling

[@aleksmayer5907]

Hi Josh, how happy are you with the Poly Beebo/Digit when it comes to live shows? Is there any danger of it crashing? And how do you get around the problem that there is always a load time between patches? I also plan to include the Beebo/Digit to my board (also the Zoia by Empress Effects), but I am still wondering about the mentioned things and so I am looking for experiences made by other guitarists.

[@hatuliko2009]

Josh, I'm sure you've already said it somewhere.. But if you will.. What pickups are in this Strat? It sounds just amazing.

[@JoshSmithGuitar]

Ron Ellis pickup.

[@stevekirby7333]

It's hard to tell, but it doesn't seem like the Myriad or Tchula are giving the huge level boosts you had before. I had to give up on the Myriad as the level was too twitchy to be set near unity. Bumping the knob was worse than bumping a knob on a Mk1 Boogie. I loved the sound. Ben Rice sat in on mine once and dug it as well. But it wasn't something I could just drop on the floor on and know what was going to happen. Did you get Vemuram to tame to level or put a different taper pot in there so it doesn't come on like gangbusters all at once.

[@JoshSmithGuitar]

No changes at all.

[@kostasjazz]

Cool

[@Bryantkh13]

I am so lost, but it sounds great so thats what matters

貧困で機材関係殆ど手放したけどまたボード組みたいなあ。 ジョッシュ最高🐼

[@Evilmusician4_2]

Killer setup for a killer player! Was wondering why are you using the hex instead of the Morningstar ml5? Any reason or was that what you had lying around?

[@JoshSmithGuitar]

One more loop and the break for the wah!

[@Qthebride]

@@JoshSmithGuitar hey Josh ‘ Can you tell me of you had a lag when you were using the ML5 ? I can hear a small lag / cut in my sound when I active one or multiple loops in my ML5 ! Thank you ! Nice board and nice playing 😉

[@smcmillen01]

Great video Josh, when you have Myriad>Argonaut, do you get clipping in the Argonaut from the level on the Myriad (which I know you set high)

[@JoshSmithGuitar]

No, the argo seems to handle it! Normally I'd have it the other way, but I wanted the wah in the break which is after loop one, and I wanted that after fuzz.

[@smcmillen01]

@@JoshSmithGuitar Radical, what a cool setup! Looking forward to seeing you in Northern Ireland next year!

[@RobFlaxMusic]

Extremely ruling! Did you change the internal dipswitch in the Preamp MkII for the fuzz? Or is that stock?

[@JoshSmithGuitar]

Stock

[@RobFlaxMusic]

​@@JoshSmithGuitar Siiiick. And it works just right... Gated fuzz later in the chain with no downsides! Excited to try this out.

Great ‘clank’ on the clean Strat... pickups?

[@JoshSmithGuitar]

Ron Ellis!

[@MiguelMorenoGP]

Why the Morningstar+Hex setup instead of a GigRig or something? More flexibility? Pretty cool board!

[@JoshSmithGuitar]

I like both. Still have the gigrig on other boards. This was mostly for size/space.

is that octave pedal before or after the fuzz or gain pedal
