Is The REVV G3 Really That Good?

[@RobertBakerGuitar]

Hey homies quick question for you. How do you like these review style videos vs just a plain demo?

[@michael350p6]

They're cool

[@bisaillion]

I don't know what you mean. I like what you just did though. What model Revv amp do you have?

[@TheOnlineBusker]

Love both

[@joeduncan4487]

I like reviews but I prefer demos. Otherwise we can't listen to you play as much😔

[@jason_from_canada]

Hi Robert. I enjoy this review style. Keep riffing! Love your videos. 👍

[@Danny_Sixx]

Robs opinion on products tends to be the one I listen to the most because of the honesty behind it

[@RobertBakerGuitar]

Thanks Dan I always want to be straight up when it comes to gear reviews

[@twigy7979]

@@RobertBakerGuitar great review my frind,are this pedal good to play grunge?

[@ZenGuitarShred]

I was so happy when you jammed some Ratt! 😁 Thank you for this review. I am perplexed about finding a crushing 80's bright sounding pedal that can also carry metal tones. Cheerz!👍🏼

[@soullessSiIence]

I could spend hours listening to your playing. Some of the most amazing guitar tones and clean playing I've ever heard. I wish I could make my guitar sound like that. I put any gain and it sounds muddy right away. Your sound is punchy and aggressive but clear as water.

[@Ymiraku]

Sounds like you have a bad setup

[@ShaneStoneOfficial]

3 years later, are you happy with your tone yet? I've been playing for 20 years and still hate my tone haha

[@Jojo-j2u7d]

5 years ago ,i belive you already become a guitar master

[@JAFOpty]

I also like the clicky switches. Silent are ok for tap tempo only.

[@lesharrison3739]

Thanks, Robert. I love the review. The neck pickup on the LP is insanely good--warm and biting simultaneously? The sound with the tele sells it for me. Unexpected and brilliant. Thanks for the masterful review.

[@RNAMusic]

YES YES IT IS!

[@mustangguns7230]

Best review I found, man you are glorious 🙌 I am gonna get that revv g3.

[@photoguy4212]

This is the demo I was looking for. Revv just earned a new customer.

[@lizarrrdbeth]

Love the shirt! REVV G3 sounds amazing! Cool color too!! Loved the fact that they help out with a lot of the shipping price!!!

[@RobertBakerGuitar]

The guys at Revv are some of the nicest people you will ever meet

[@BrianWebster-r5f]

When I had originally got this pedal I thought it was terrible I tried preamp and effects loop and both were terrible however after learning how this pedal interacts w my gear I found that it is the best pedal I have ever owned. It has the crispness and aggressive bite Ive always wanted. This is my main distortion pedal now

[@mananakoa2412]

Awesome demo Robert! Totally agree on the switch and color thing. Lataz!

[@BitterValentines]

I got this pedal and love it man, I personally hate silent switches if you’re singing and can’t look at the floor to engage your distortion is very nice to be able to feel the switch through your shoe I don’t see the advantage of a silent foot switch

[@BatEatsMoth]

I like. It has that 80's glam metal sound.

[@andyjor574]

I've been going back and forth between reviews of Earthquaker Devices' Palisades, Friedman BE-OD Deluxe and the Revv G3. That clarity even though it's on the high gain side made me decide to choose this over the other pedals.

[@jamesharrison1975]

If you have studio noise or light interference, try ehx debugger, better than noise gate, it doesn't gate it identifies bad frequencies and tunes them out

[@TimesBTough]

I got this recently. I know it’s a disrtion pedal, but it sounds extremely tinny and thin to me. Probably just my personal taste, but the Friedman BE deluxe OD seems to sound a lot better to me.

[@finps9786]

I've been considering buying one of these for a while now. awesome job on the video! :D

[@97warlock]

6:29 Lips in the Hills , killer tune

[@thisguy2973]

I feel like clicky switches only bother people who are engaging the pedal with their fingers. Clicky switches have been a thing forever and when you’re placing your body weight over it, the only difference is the tactility of clicky switches. I don’t necessarily like silent switches because they feel broken. I always wind up kicking them twice and wonder why they’re not on lol

[@mikeythedistasteful]

I just got this pedal and it is fucking insanity. I play mostly 80s hard rock, metal and a little glam and the g3 nails all of those styles perfectly. I could also see it for like classic led zep style rock too.

[@ryj2848]

I've been debating this pedal and the Wampler Dracarys. This video and your comment may have tipped the scales.

[@bobkornbrust7138]

Thats what sold me! Even in the red with the gain at 2:00 it stays tight and Clear and I have really hot Jeff Loomis pick ups.and the eq is just so good like u said.great pedal👍🤘

[@FringeSpectre]

Pls help. Why does the G3 sound like ass compared to my MXR Fullbore Metal? I plug it in and it sounds hollow, like I'm playing through a tin can or something compared to my MXR. I'm confused. Literally everyone says this pedal kicks ass but to me it sounds worse than a metal zone

[@NoobMaster-kt7tf]

What amp are you playing through

[@dougfa3515]

I think I would play all day if my setup sounded like that!

[@JonBakerMusic]

Love the typical Les Paul - "just need to tune up the G-string" after playing for about a minute 😂. The guitar and pedal sound anazing though! 😀

[@rioslj9452]

Damn how does your rev3 sounds so clean, when I used it it picks all sorts of sounds and unwanted buzzing

[@RC32Smiths01]

Very country sounding intro I'd say, and that's what I like! I thought it sounds very amazing!

[@dressedtosmellgood]

its van halen tho

[@glennnmurphy]

Sounds bad ass with your 79 Les Paul !

[@chrischristopher59]

Keep them coming

[@garyburginjr1366]

No matter what setting I use the only song that comes out is smoke on the water. It's like that on every pedal I've tried to date so idk what's going on here

[@stevenmgyori3826]

Thanks brother, LOVE them both!I'll eat it up as long as you're serving it!

[@thegoldensubway4182]

That thing sounds sick !

[@Kufojohn]

Nice review! Question please. this or Mind Abuse pedal?

[@billhannum4117]

Dude Ace Frehley would highly approve of that Les Paul man . Sweet ax . I like your reviews better than just a demo I think there is more information in the review

[@thomascockill4006]

cant wait to get this pedal next week

[@stanesposito2664]

So what is your favorite drive pedal? Thanks.

[@TheOnlineBusker]

Sounds fantastic!!

[@aaronnovotny377]

[@JohnCoughlan_JAC]

Nice jam at the end!

[@MikeCindyWhite]

Sounds awesome! Great review bro

[@jessereyna7408]

Killer demonstration video.. loved the playing as well. On that note.. do you have any songs or cds out?

[@wheresallthezombies]

you and John Browne are the only ones ive heard that actually make this pedal sound good.

[@amoebacakes]

love the outro ....really moving!

[@frankquinn1296]

I have both the G3 and G4 , maybe I am doing something wrong, they sound amazing but i have to engage a noise suppressor when i push the gain on any of the blue or red channels. In normal its bearable

[@hugoo0]

Hi men. Wich pedal do you think is better, revv or blackstar ht metal?

[@pamelaalexander3700]

Luv ur vids, i look forward to seeing ur next one!

[@RobertBakerGuitar]

Thanks homie

[@nateglass8767]

I like you can use it for more than just metal. Some of us dont just noodle all day lol. Great for Journey solos.

[@lymariecanliar4883]

Should try next to the angry Charlie A1+

[@JenniferThompson-cy1ln]

Like to compare it to a multy effect board

[@patfilipczak6888]

Joe dirt plays wicked

[@ragingskeptic9753]

I had a G3 and I didn’t care for it. It was boomy even with the bass all the way down. Also, over-saturation was an issue. When I turned the gain down low enough that it wasn’t over-saturated, it was only making enough gain to play blues. I play high gain metal core / djent / heavy metal, so that’s no bueno. (Ran through an EVH 5150 III Stealth.) I opted for the Wampler Phenom instead.

[@emartinezr]

For a 5150, these pedals (G2, G4 and G4) will be best run through the Effects Loop. They behave like a Pre-amp so if you have any good tube amp... best to use these pre-amp pedals on the Effects Loop. If you have a solid state amp, you can run them in front of the amp and they'll be much better. But still... these are beat ran through the Effects Loop.

[@Soumargha-7]

Hell yeah ..it sounds amazing!!

[@timothymccune2101]

I love it got my studio monitors smoking,very diverse

[@97warlock]

Im thinkin this pedal is about to be on order

[@oldguyjammin9732]

Does it have a sweet spot? One drawback I've notices with several of my OD or Distortion pedals is that they really only sound good at one or two particular settings.

[@RobertBakerGuitar]

To be honest no it sounds good all over the map. I know just what you mean to. So many pedals and High gain pedals for sure sound good in one spot and that's it. The G3 sounds great everywhere, to be honest. I was really surprised with just how versatile it was.

[@joker71172]

Awesome Rob, the revv g3 is all about distortion. Cheers

[@betterdays259]

I'm torn between the Revv G3 or the Snake Oil Marvelous Engine. I often play lamb of god, Pantera, Incubus and Disturbed and some heavier stuffs like Amon Amarth or Decapitated. Any thoughts? 🤣

[@twigy7979]

Best pedal 5stars!!!!

[@Metaldad87]

The part of you're in love by ratt was a good touch

[@workdays8280]

And don't run on a battery so U have to run more leads . But good video

Nope totally stock

Amazing pedal !

sounding killer!

[@ZeppelinFan70]

very UFO Rock Bottom sounding at lower gain. Sounds SWEET!!!!!

[@christineblack4654]

just wanted to say the Boss Metal zone detroys this pedal! I had my cousins over yesterday to watch the game, Canadiens beat Boston in overtime by the way whooo hoooo, and I had just bought the revv a couple of weeks ago and had rebough the metal zone. I had one in the 80's. so I start with the revv got an ok distortion but found that I couldnt tweek it any better and that it did not satisfy me, just missing perfection you know? this is paired with the Boss equalizer by the way in a v shap. so then I decide to try the metal zone that I know is very heavy, so I start tweeking to him playing this very heavy riff non stop and found many different cruching sounds but at the end of maybe 5min I found heaven no words could really explain it except for perfection. and even had room. but this spot simply was IT! crushed the revv to bites. it's distortion at max and the two middle button facing each other top and bottom buttons. the first 2 at 9 oclock and the second two at 3 oclock. around there you will find pure eargasm. Its the same as in the 80's I remembered I had the first 2 at 8 and the second 2 at 4 oclock. very close depends who's playing and pick ups etc.. but still around the same thing. this is in front of the amp. this amp has no fx loop but I remember in does days I had a peavy that had an fxloop and it sounded great both ways. The revv will be put on sale. I also have the Sabbra Cadabra for the sabbath sound that I will keep for now. I just got the Swollen Pickle for fuzz that I will be trying out. In conclusion for good distortion and huge versitility I recommend the metal zone hands down :)

[@uchihaitachidan]

Did you run the g3 in front of the amp or did you use it as the pre-amp? Thanks
