I Built A Pedalboard For This! | Jam Pedals Harmonious Monk

I made a new pedalboard to test out this new harmonic trem pedal ‘The Harmonious Monk’ from JAM pedals and That Pedal Show!
Check it out: bit.ly/3sAmTLV
Anything that Mick and Dan have had a hand in is gonna sound good (in my opinion!)
Check out their channel: / thatpedalshow
Hope you enjoy the tones!

Just woke up here in Los Angeles. This is the morning coffee i needed lol

[@Skypas]

best hairstyle on the internet x) 11:15 what a nice clean.

[@markstewart8171]

Cloves of dover sound.

[@adrianurrusuno2607]

It's like the perfect marriage between an univibe and a trem! Nice!

[@shadowulf]

what I enjoy about harmonic tremolo is that it not only adds motion, it adds a depth and fills out the sound. The first time I played through one, I tried a lick that I had been working on. The sonic feel of the lick had finally "filled out". When used properly, it crushes in delivery.

[@RedbackRecordz]

Never apologise for getting carried away with your jam sessions with new gear Rabea, I’m sure I can speak for everyone watching, but we all love it when get carried away!! 🤘🤘Do it! 😂👍🍻

[@ResoBridge]

Harmonic tremolo uses a high pass and a low pass filter to split the input signal. A low frequency oscillator then controls a panning circuit to pan between the two filter outputs. So you hear an emphasis of alternately the low filter output and the high filter output. Because the filter circuits produce a signal phase shift you also hear a change in phase as the signal pans.

[@5se7en]

This is the video they should use to promote this pedal. Great job!

[@allenwelden7099]

I’d buy an album of Hanna and Bea songs

[@kylehowdy]

Man, I LOVE listening to you play some edge of breakup tones with your strat.

[@ThemischievousLoki]

Bea... you need to make an album called Noodle because I could listen to your noodling all day brother. So good!!!

[@OrestisMatos]

Amazing sounds, amazing playing! Well done, mate!

[@ianseward9928]

Wow , what a pedal . More subtle than a vibe . So simple . The phaser sounds unbelievable as well. They have the magic ingredient . I’m an electronics engineer . Used to work at neves . This company know sounds . Great playing by the way . You and Pete . Great together . You sound a bit more jazzy these days . Less heavy . I love it .

[@joelkeane3160]

I think the mix knob is a stroke of awesomeness. It allows an extra level of functionality most tremolos don’t have. I’m using it as an always on pedal curtesy of the mix. You can go from a smidgen of chewy goodness to buffer the tone, through to all of the psycho effects. Well done Jam and the boys. F&@k’n awesome pedal!!!!

[@MattGarwood777]

I have NEVER preferred harmonic trem over traditional vibrato. This one is the first I’d love to own. It’s reeeeeally nice sounding

[@davidjameschamberlain]

What's really fun is to have both

[@aaronsmithey4044]

That's my kind of board! Jam just makes great things. This Monk is special.

[@caprise-music6722]

Indeed. I have a Jam Tube Dreamer 72 and I love it

[@craigswensen434]

Awesome playing!!! This is one of the greatest pedals ever, in my opinion. You did such an amazing job showing all the beautiful sounds.

[@dragui9932]

Dude I love your tones and playing ! It's always a pleasure to watch your demos. And your funky rock rhythmic is the best !

[@aarongabriel6837]

Saying that tone is sick is an understatement. Nice work.

[@jmsamborski]

“The artwork makes you want to play with the pedal”. Dude, the artwork is literally a seal with input/output jacks in its mouth and backside.

[@RabeaMassaad]

EXACTLY!

[@hankrocks7504]

Bea has this funny thing where I'll be thinking hmmm I wonder if he still has * insert guitar here* and then he uses that guitar in a video ! lol Awesome stuff in this video Bea!

[@TheCoronaMortis]

I'm a simple man, I see Rabea, I watch, I like.

[@BV_Beve]

That's awesome Bea !!! BV the 🔧 at TPS wholeheartedly approves !! 🙂

[@gregderosier5166]

Every time I watch your videos I want to get back into playing again. Like always great video.

[@jonholland6067]

Do it you probably wont regret it!

[@danieljamesoconnor6800]

Yes man, you should give it a go. I was kind of an on/off player since I was 7years old. There where long periods of not playing/making music at all. I picked up the guitar 3 years ago now for real. Learning a huge load of great stuff. It‘s inspiring nowadays. Thanx to all the Rabeas out there showing us how it can be done. I‘m turning 45 this year. And of course, it sometimes can be a little discouraging seeing and hearing all those incredibly talented „young“ people on the media. But then again it’s great fun learning as an experienced person. I’m definitely more patient with myself than back in the day. Just saying...never to late. And remember, it‘s all about fun fun fun. ✌🏼

[@gregderosier5166]

Ok you guys twisted my arm and I decided to get one. Won't have a lot of money so it will probably be something like a Squire. Thanks for the nudge guys

[@gazzau79]

Inspiring stuff all along but the playing from 16 minutes was just awesome - youtube gold.

[@sethlover6498]

jesus...once we got pass the 17 minute mark...my jaw hit the floor...that was some of the most inspiring and best sounds i have ever heard...holy shit...well i just bought one...

[@Saycheeseanddie84]

Damn, man, you play beautifully. Your passion for guitar and tones shines brightly!

[@thanhhuynh2044]

Rabea is just an amazing guitarist that I don't even mind that he played wonderwall... haha

[@danieljamesoconnor6800]

Great vid. Thanx for sharing Bea. Have a glorious day! ✌🏼

[@dobster5819]

Fantastic video Rabea, love the sounds you create when playing. Thank you.

[@gelollobrera440]

I'm glad that I'm so early for this. Loving this man.

[@RabidWookies]

I love the artwork! A monk seal with a Thelonious Monk hat! Very clever!

[@randallparker8477]

The sounds you were getting made me think of sheets and clothes on the line in the wind, a soft breeze then a tornado and then an evening breeze... I really liked the tornado part... it reminded me of Hendrix or SRV. Easy to get lost in there boy-yo. Thanks for "movements".

[@fatplane4671]

That first 30 seconds.... delicious!!

[@krautbass]

HOOOLY MOLY for the sound at 16:56 !!!, yeah I like it a lot !! and the solo after 17:00.. 'dark and sweet" (my personal opinion of course)..

[@ofsoundmind13]

This thing sounds killer! I love how subtle it can be. I’ve been experimenting with more modulation and ambient effects lately but my issue a lot of the time is how they completely take over your tone. No surprise how good this is though considering mick and dan were involved. Great job bea! Really enjoying your content lately!🤘❤️

[@ordinalkirk]

Fierce. I got chills listening around the 17:00 mark.

[@nilsx3020]

I'm a huge tremolo fan, mainly the traditional amplitude bias trems of my Suhr Hombre amp and RevivalTrem pedal. This has such a vibey ambient taste to it, loving it. I best like your ambient soundscapes, Rabea.

[@handlewithcare1234]

absolutely great demo (and performance). I also really appreciate your impressions at the end. I've gone from not interested in this pedal, to intrigued and in the running for my next purchase

[@Enzoayan]

Fantastic playing as always ☺️.

[@b0000kify]

sounds lovely. another keeper from JAM

[@Matt-1d]

Love my Harmonious Monk. I've got it set up wet-dry in my stereo rig, and it sounds killer. I've got several excellent modulation pedals, but this one is by far my favorite.

[@br0mn0m]

Glad the black strat is back in rotation

[@johnpsathakis1964]

Finally someone non Greek pronunced Yiannis (my name) right. Also that was awesome, please keep going strong and if possible use a les Paul style guitar from time to time.

[@TracerXS]

Have had mine for a couple of months and love it....try combining it with a univibe and the Boss DC-2W, it's a great combo.

[@theoryofthrash]

I can’t imagine a more 80’s sounding clean tone, love it

[@robinho1978.]

Stunning sounds man, as always! I’ve been looking for a nice harmonic trem for a while....thanks for the birthday message btw, Kennedy was saying you’d asked! It was much appreciated if unexpected...

[@MicahStefanDagaerag]

“Hippie-dippie” - that’s gonna be on a shirt soon

[@kahlrhoam6769]

I have to be restrained from making pedal boards after I watch any Dan & Mick video. Every.Damned.G.A.S.TIME! 🤪

[@noonesfang131]

I used to only have a blues driver but because of TPS I have something like 15 pedals and of those I have 3 fuzzes on my board alone

[@alexanderwerneburg8642]

Never heard of harmonic term before.. loved the sounds from that pedal. Definitely on my wish list.

[@kjsebestyen]

Awesome run through! I love learning about new pedals

[@Mickie-Mouse666]

Jeez those clean chords you played, that tone reminds me of Eric Johnson’s tone

[@NelsLindahl]

Did the Grinding Gears tab books get released? I'm looking forward to spending some time with those.

[@teddyboy9116]

I normally hate gear reviews but I loved the playing on this vid, nice one mate!

[@RabeaMassaad]

Thank you! I appreciate that. I try to pack as much playing in as I can. Which usually results in longer vids but I have fun nonetheless! Thanks for watching :)

[@goswo]

Great pedal. And dammit that Strat sounds amazing :-)

[@robharrison3231]

Really hope you'll be out touring soon... & make it over to California

[@kellysironen8616]

Need a tab for that jam at end omg

[@tpike32]

Reminds me of Andy Timmons . The Prayer the Answer tone👍👍

[@cchavez248]

I'm not surprised that you hadn't messed about with harmonic tremolos very much, as far as I know, there are not a plethora of harmonic tremolo pedals around, it seems they have become popular lately though....

[@RavenMadd9]

dig that pedal.....very Hendrixy in a way like 1983 a merman I will be

[@colinrobertson4569]

That intro was fantastic 🤘

[@joshbrown8098]

Dude. You sound so good on a strat. N

[@aaronsmithey4044]

Ok. I just noticed the black strat, I dunno Y just now, but I'm jelly. Beutiful guitar!

[@martinrhodes1619]

Excellent - just got one and you’ve shown me how to get the best from it ...

[@Paul_Lenard_Ewing]

It sounds good. I play a style of Metal a journalist called "a Sabbath vibe with a Prog Rock sensibility." I use an optic tremolo for a tune with a recurring bridge that I play a clave rhythm ...a fancy term for the Bo Diddley beat. The song is a near parody on a single tune that goes down well with every audience. I do not think it works for me otherwise.

[@thomaswalz3515]

Nice effect! Not a fan of fuzz... however, for ambient stuff, slow minor Blues... superb. Like you said, good for getting lost in sound..

[@gogboxing5655]

So this or the Retro-Vibe? I kind of had my mind set on the Retro-Vibe, but just saw this (even though it's an old vid).

[@WalrusDoom]

Strat Rabea is my favorite Rabea

[@sherberist]

Ok that fillty fuzz sold it for me 🤣

[@jamesbennett5065]

Great playing. I plan to purchase one soon! What kind of delay are you playing through? Peace.... Jim

[@patricktracy1966]

Does Mr Massaad use his Revival Drive as an amp? Not using it with an amp or amp sim at all? The Harmonizer is nice. But the H9 does this plus 51 other things. And you can tweak and create presets until the cows come home

[@HowlingMan369]

You are an absolutely Phenomenal musician man. Thank You For Sharing! Not just your opinions and preferences but, most importantly, your music .!.!

[@marcusdluxe]

Sounds awesome, definitely on my hit list! Though I'll be hard pushed to swap out my Stone Deaf Tremotron

[@LysanderLH]

I really like the sound of your Strat Bea.

[@garyrose5211]

Yourself and the pedal sounds fantastic.

[@stereokulturmusik]

Which Reverb Pedal do you use? Very nice!! Thx

[@rjester21]

Sounds great 😊 I want one!

[@mattw.6726]

Sounds killer! Definitely something to look into for the future. For now, though, I need to see about finding a good fuzz. I was never really into fuzz tones until I saw some of the things you do with it, so I was wondering if there was a particular pedal you could recommend for a fuzz noob? Bonus points if there's one with multiple types of fuzz that still sounds great. Thanks!

[@nealpike6611]

Oh no I now want a harmonic trem

[@chitarrafaidate]

Your tone sounds like a warm blanket.

[@fretbuzz70]

I felt that! Rabea, are you using real single coils in this video? Everything sounds amazing and no hum!

[@petersadler87]

New Stratomacaster Bea? Sounds lovely!

[@Inabeshidare]

Today is gonna b the day that im gonna buy a tremolooo

[@RockCoversMusic]

Nice sounding pedalboard!

[@rikmcrae]

Inspiration tools. I love mine. 🦭

[@randverserence690]

love this man, it has a really nice ambient bluesness that I could jam to. Awesome vid

[@vancitycanucks]

You should try a Bard by Kingsley pedals side by side. I love my Bard to death.

[@JonNewquist]

Nice playing with this one. I'm a traditional amplitude tremolo and reverb guy. So I never understood harmonic tremolo. Never liked it. And then I went through a bunch of MXR phase pedals, a 45, 90, 95, etc. and kept the custom script 45. Then Dan and Mick demoed the Monk themselves, and what I heard was really rich phasey sounds. Calling it a tremolo put me off of trying any more H.Ts. until now. I dig it for what it does, not what it's called.

[@johnny8dljuneau]

Awesome video Rabea as always! Really informative and useful. Out of interest, how do you feel the Monk compares to the Supro 1310 analog harmonic trem? (if you’ve tried it, that is)

[@katoyelovni]

what pickups on that strat? that bender!!!!

[@markstewart8171]

13:40 what scale was that? Im diggin it.

[@jessek.beauchamp1356]

Nice work Jam Pedals. That sounds dope. Tap tempo jack?

[@1973larryrichardson]

Completely off topic but I trust your opinion more than perhaps anyone else's. I have between $600 and $800 to spend. Which of the Epiphone products from 2020/2021 do you feel is the all around best value in either the LP or SG styles?

[@corey_deroche]

I really like it.

[@ianseward9928]

Are the pedals all thru the front end

[@danmorrissey5725]

which pickups do you have in this geetar pls?

[@joecoombsguitarist]

Such a great sound Rabea! What are you using to record, cab sim wise? Sounds massive

[@RabeaMassaad]

Thank you man! I was using the Ox here. With the Cali V30 speaker model :)

[@joecoombsguitarist]

@@RabeaMassaad Oh man that is killer, I think this video has actually sold me finally on the Ox. It was really nice to see a great demo of it using clean sounds, I’ve wondered a lot how good it works for those tones as that’s where I tend to live, thanks a lot man! 🙏🏻

[@SWizz871]

I've had my eye on this pedal for a while! So is it capable of operating as a volume tremolo as well as the Harmonic tremolo it specialises it?

[@SWizz871]

I DID watch the demo by the way haha. I'm just such a newbie

[@danielhoskins4690]

Yes. I believe that is what one of the toggle switches in the middle are for. Choosing normal trem or harmonic trem

[@loulagro2315]

Yes, that is the point of the Amplitude/ Harmonic switch. Straight volume trem vs the phasey frequency based type of trem.

[@Dwoed]

Has this something in common with Thelonius Monk ?

[@dancrowe7860]

I already own this pedal. Why am I watching this video? And, why do I now want to buy more gear?

[@qfz2112]

6:55 I walk a lonely road...
