Rob Chapman Chooses a Guitar Rig for Under £1000

[@jeffreyprice773]

Are you selling a Marshall speaker for £2 ? As advertised on facebook.

[@andertons]

No, unfortunately this is a scam that we are currently aware of. Please report these ads if you see them. Apologies for the inconvenience.

[@Clarkbait]

Had to look at the decibel meter to make sure I wasnt crazy. Normally the volume is at 90-100 but this felt like proper punch to the chest with the mix but sitting

[@themattitude]

The biggest compliment I can give that G&L is that for a few moments it sounded like Dan's red Tele.

@Rob welcome back ..good to see you once again ❤

[@blackie75]

Always great to see the Chapster on. 😎

[@TheHatMusic]

There's a rumour that Rob's intro was done without any editing, and that he learned that glitching vocal technique from a strange man living in a cave in the Dingli cliffs who has spent 40 years beatboxing on his own, just waiting for a protegé to teach his techniques to.... Of course, this is just a rumour...

[@nickmizell1141]

Well done!! Watching from Louisiana USA

[@stoneysdead689]

The Lion sounds so good it's unreal- as good or better than many tube amps I've played through. UAFX really jumped ahead when they came out with it- imo. That said- technology tends to spread once it's available so- I look for there to be more great options from other makers available soon. They'll reverse engineer the Lion and figure out why/how it sounds as good as it does- then they'll either license the use of that tech or create something similar they can call their own- it always happens. And that's when the pricing starts being what separates them- so you end up with affordable versions.

[@awilliamson3140]

Much earlier than Tight Fit, The Karl Denver trio did The Lion Sleeps tonight, under the title Wimoweh (1962) and another version by the Tokens was also in the charts then.

[@fearpocalypse8062]

I was not prepared for the greetings 🤣Glad to have another video with the gruesum twosum

[@thetattedpharmacist3215]

I personally love the sound of the classic vibe into that setup. Sounded fkn incredible!!❤

[@str8shooter159]

Its always good to see Rob the shred master on Andertons channel. Such a great musician and i was turned on to Rob 10 plus years ago and i really want a signature Rob Chapman guitar. Amazing fiddles.

[@jasonswitzer1748]

That Stratosonic is sick, right? I tried it here at a big box guitar store in the U.S. and fell in love with it.

[@edwinstovall3334]

YES - the UAFX Lion, it totally ROCKS. Love mine 😁

[@hamzaderkaoui9558]

Good to see you together boys, it's been a while

[@michigangreen1915]

I don’t watch Rob or Andertons much anymore but when they’re together I watch them all. They are the same now as 4-5 years ago. In a good way. Just need Rabea and Matt to complete the dream team.

[@timhewtson6212]

Yeah, the chemistry blows the screen.

[@LosiDriver7223]

Dont know if anyone will see or answer, but 22:05. What riff is Rob Playing. Been hearing him play it for years and love the riff, but I don't know what song it's from, or if it's just a Rob Chapman thing. Thanks to anyone who can answer.

[@KnapfordMaster98]

The epiphone vs gibson will be very interesting this time... the epiphones are absolutely incredible right now. I have a Koa custom and it's nuts.

[@philippehendrickx1109]

Indeed. I recently bought the new epiphone inspired by Gibson Korina V. Man, that guitar is so good. Finish is flawless and plays like a dream.nothing cheap about it.

[@PlasticCyborg]

Now I'm just remembering the time Rob and friends were in a car park singing The Lion Sleeps Tonight, and then gag reel video just cracks me up.

[@non_brewed_condiment]

Lee and Rob have a great dynamic

[@allendean9807]

As a lifelong lead vocalist who also plays guitar, i prefer wedge monitors as well. We found, once those plexiglass drum panels came into use, it made a huge difference in hearing myself. Also, i only put vocals through the floor wedges. I use a straight cab for guitar, and at about 5-10 feet out, they really carry your tone enough to hear what you’re playing just fine if you aim right at your bum… cheers, fellas, and as always, super jealous you live in Malta!!

[@jorgesilva6454]

Great performance Rob 👏👏👏

[@TemplarGuitar]

"The Lion Sleeps Tonight" was released by The Tokens (originally the Linctones (Name taken from Lincoln Highschool in Brooklyn where they all met/first band)), -then they became "Darrel and the Oxfords" (they had one hit... "Picture in My Wallet"), and then, they formed "The Tokens" (a name which Neil Sedaka helped originate)... so yeah... I grew up with that family legacy...met all the industry dudes, but i was just a kid at the time. Jay Siegel still performs to this day,, and he must be around 80 at this point...

[@TemplarGuitar]

Dangit, when I edited the above, i left out the part where my stepfather was in the Tokens from the start... they were all friends in Lincoln High... and kept going till around mid 70's...(Then Jay Siegel and a couple others formed "Cross Country"), and the Tokens were no more. Jay continued producing music for several artists... Years Later though, Jay revived the legacy, and still tours with "Jay Siegel and the Tokens" to this day... wow.... thats a loooong career in music. Go Jay!!

[@MrJayscinema]

Just wondering, Rob, which in ears do you use when gigging? Struggling to find ones that suit / can take a full band being put through them

[@RobChappers]

Hey Dude, I have a couple of different packs, I actually quite like the Xvive ones but normally use Shure or Senheiser

[@pascalhoberg6513]

Errr isn't the spark a full range boost rather than a green box clone ? Brilliant demo of the Lion, thank you !!

[@nitbot]

It kind of sounds like the amp is in a room down the hall with the doors open. I'd prefer a presence knob on this "amp" pedal that would let me bring the sound a bit further forward

[@florisvanlingen]

There's a "presence" knob on the pedal. When you flick the switch to ALT-Mode you can edit the amount of prescence by turning the Middle knob.

[@jamesgalbraith5011]

What is the riff Rob plays at 22:06?

[@evanjfraser]

Don't most mixer's/PAs also have reverb they can add in if you're using direct interface? Probably don't need the Heavenly then?

[@clouds5]

My setup is a PRS Se custom24 and a valeton gp200. Sub 1000$ and you have a full setup with a wide range of everything that sounds great.

[@JeffStarr]

Rob, no octave fuzz?

[@carpathus]

That vintage blond for me. Cheers!

[@USMarine75]

I have every piece of gear in this video except the Heavenly lol. The G&L MFD pickups are overpowered. Roll the guitar volume back to about 8 and they sound like regular singles. That would have cleaned up the fuzz. The G&L S500 comes with the bass contour so you can roll off bass. It’s a sleeper killer guitar. You should have also switched Lion IR cabs until you found a better match. Also roll down vol 2 that’s the woofier of the two channels.

[@piranhamusic1331]

Its by the Tokens, one of the first songs I teach to my students. D G D A throughout, in a sorta swing feel.

[@jjjimmer]

Could get a Kemper Profile Player for not much more than the UAFX pedals and would have waaaaay more amp / sound options? No brainer to me.

[@blwnova4155]

Boss IR-2 instead of Lion?

[@daveleach6006]

Great to see Rob back for a few videos! Love Petes work as well, but great to see the dynamic duo again

[@compucorder64]

Limited to £1k, I'd prioritise the amp and choose a Vox AC15C1. To get two channels, EQ, master volume, good cleans and good classic low to mid gain trashy drive. For pedal, just a TC Magus Pro. For three different Rat voicings, classic, fat and turbo. That can do boost/drive, distortion and all the way up to fuzz. For guitar, a Larry Carlton S3, the red HSS. I would miss a delay though. The Behringer SF300 super fuzz, with boost, and VD400 delay might be an option instead of the Magus. But I'd rehouse them.

[@tonynoon8693]

I kind of wish they remembered the pull knobs on the Stratosonic. In the middle position the volume pulled out puts the pickups in series and the tone knob puts the pickups out of phase. I love the sounds out of that guitar.

The Lion Sleeps Tonight was the Tokens. When we had our piano tuned in the 80s, it was done by one of their members... which is quite sad honestly.

[@MrKbeaumont]

The version "The Lion Sleeps Tonight" that MOST people remember is by the do-wop group The Tokens in 1961. It was written by Solomon Linda a South African as "Mbube" . It was recorded as "Wimoweh" by the Weavers in November 1951. It has been covered many many times.

No. The Tokens sang a song called The Lion Sleeps Tonight that was lifted from a song written by Solomon Linda, a South African Zulu, who was cheated out of his songwriting royalites for the melody and lyrics that he had created for his entire life.

[@ThatBaritoneGuitarGuy]

My tour/session rig is the same theme. I use a Squier Classic Vibe or Vintage Modified, an Amp Tweaker Tight Metal Pro II going direct-out to front of house, and a tuner. There you go. ONE guitar and a pedalboard in the back seat of my car, that is THE ONLY way to tour.
