A term coined by the British press, shoegaze is meant to describe a scene of bands whose overwhelming amount of pedals led them to simply stare at their shoes while playing on stage.

[@Peyote1312]

I'll gaze your shoe, Buster.

[@josephlopez5681]

Those reverb settings are clearly R(ed) H(ot) C(hilli) and P(epper). Always love a good pepper 'verb.

You're getting some real Godspeed tones when you include that fuzz. Gorgeous.

[@hailmaryrecordings8255]

Thanks for your service during the pandemic. There are a lot of these shows, but I appreciate your honesty, humor, and non parlor-trick playing. You just love playing & it’s obvious. ☮️

[@makingmusiconline2309]

The sounds around 14-15 minutes in are *amazing*

[@mindfall82]

"I'm just playing nonsense" So am I bud! That's all I ever play lol but sometimes it turns into a cool riff for a song...that's all I have, just parts of songs one day I'll try put them together haha

[@khoroshoorange]

Or maybe you Just Take a small Part of a Song and repeat it for about 3 Minutes!

That's exactly me lol, I keep saying I'm gonna write em down too but ig we'll see

[@dukerufus5334]

Man I'm a noodler and have been for 40 years. I play for me and my dogs lol. I'm not a band guy or a serious dedicated musician. But I love the guitar and love playing them every chance I get.

[@perekman3570]

Should've tried Reverb into the Fuzz to really get the Gaze going.

[@KrumpusPlunk]

reverb into fuzz, nice... why did i never try that before....

[@pahwraith]

@@KrumpusPlunk thats the shoegaze trick

Because “shoegaze” is just a buzzword for him and he has no idea what it even means

Nice rendition of Purple Oyster Cult's "Gordzella".....

[@elemkay5104]

You really let 'er rip with that wall of sound goodness at the end there

[@tinroof4816]

The Sonicake delay's sound quality is surprisingly good. I've never tried the others.

BladeRunner2049 soundtrack starts at 16:53

[@McGacks]

Great demo. Was really only after the ambience pedal, but that last few minutes has me sold on both

[@kmlphotographygl]

Yea man!! Finally getting your hands on a fazy cream! My fav setting is fuzz down to about 10 o’clock and tone up to 3 o’clock. It’s a muff style fuzz but it cleans up pretty well with the volume knob turned down. You should try it. Not as clean as a fuzz face circuit but it works on a pinch. But versatility wise I find it the most versatile cheap fuzz. I can imitate multiple fuzz pedals I have with the fazy cream. Rock on!

[@Bob-Whiting]

The Fuzz Cream and the Ambience together kills! Sounds like attack of the killer beez in the tunnel of Doom. Love it.

[@jonathanschefano3927]

im glad you like it my friend. You seemed to like it the way i do with the reverse with church makes for awesome ambiance.

[@kevinloignon7943]

This was an ok video. At 14:15 it got fabulous. Well done!

[@joshuaevans1922]

Right? I love the sounds he pulled out of these pedals.

[@AudiophileTommy]

Love the childproof packaging 😂🤣

[@stephanematis]

The prices and features match up to the Amazon pedals well, a good compliment.

[@jessehiatt9225]

Amazing shoe gaze sounds. I was getting a bit of pink floyd vibes from some of the combos

[@DarthEcoli]

I liked Sonicake's effect brick fingy with the verb, delay, drive, and chorus on, and almost bought one for $40. It was the reverb I really wanted, and the rest were just icing. Ambiance sounds pretty good here, and the Fazy Creme is dead balls muff pedal. I've learned to trust your reviews and bought a Mosky verb mostly because of them. If you get the chance, check out Monoprice's Stageright pedals. With that Mosky reverb, I also picked up a Stageright VS Overdrive today in a bundle and love both. The VS feels like an OCD/Ehx Glove clone with a bit more grit. I'd love to see and hear more Monoprice demos of the pedals too. WinkNodNudgeSayNoMore

[@onesource9527]

Yes, do revisit the shoegaze board. In particular, review the Keeley Loomer Fuzz Reverb.

[@nitroluver4l591]

The fazy creme also gave me the craziest grindcore tone ever

[@LookingForEntertainment112]

Yup, heard that and ordered both pedals.

[@CMTT]

I'm really impressed with the fazy cream. For 30$ at the time , turned out to be best bang for your buck!

[@sassycat]

The ABY pedal looks interesting in that it looks like it has a rotary knob that lets you dial between the amps.

[@AMTunLimited]

The word that comes to mind with that plate sound is "splatter" I'm really glad you did this review, I was looking around for cheap reverb/delay combos to for a kinda everyday all around "I just want a nice clean guitar" sound, and this is a pretty good contender.

[@marcraygun6290]

Just got the ambience pedal, reverse delay plus reverb and dipping the old jazzmaster trem instant mbv

[@BeiruteDsd]

please make a video about pockverb by ammoon

[@dmitch1983]

God yes. I've been trying to tell everyone about this

[@franklucas9313]

And the PockEcho

[@jonniefast]

the pockloop is one of my heavy-use pedals just as a cheap scratchpad and a quick way to let other bandmates hear riffs / Di to learn songs without me

[@voiceofexperience]

Those delay sounds seem to be based on the earliest versions of each type of delay. It's actually very "vintage" sounding in that way. The "Church" reverb is where the ambience really comes in. 14:14 is where it all ends... I will either conquer or destroy the world with that tone.

[@emiliomaynez3046]

Yes! More shoegaze

[@douglasconrad8969]

I love affordaboard !!

[@DoctorGeek1]

3:02 GO GO GODZILLA!!!

[@6pin66]

Honestly man , You gotta get together with Red Means Recording or someone like that and do a synth afford-a-board . It'd probably have a ton of crossover with the shoegaze board . That setup you just had going would sound amazing with a huge square wave pushing through , maybe a bucket or 6 of pulse wave modulation , just make sure the amps are bolted down .

[@stuartchapman5171]

I have bought and made a lot of pedals, mainly affordable delays. You don't get a reverse that good on a budget delay, especially with a half decent reverb. If I had space I would. Great pairing as well.

[@JammerforJuctice]

i have one of these..I use it for extra delay when i need it but its great to pair up with fuzz and my Oceans eleven. You can play all day 🤤

[@bipbipletucha]

The Fuzz isn't half bad! Not too overly gated

[@DrejcD]

Dat FazyCream! 🥰

[@jpm9628]

I found the Sonic Ambience to be underwhelming. But then I just got a Sonicake Wave Crush and I'm sufficiently re-whelmed.

[@justinmorgan2126]

[@picksalot1]

That Fuzz sounds great, super deep and full without too much spitting. Cool sounds combining the Fuzz and Reverb/Delay pedal - diggin" it. What is your favorite "Plate Reverb" in a pedal and in a modeler? Thanks

[@rockbme]

Fazy Cream -> Sonic ambiance is by far the cheapest way to get David Gilmour's tone on Sorrow.

The Ammoon Pockverb has more options for a little more money. Definitely worth it

[@KrumpusPlunk]

the valeton coral series is also absolutely great in the "more expensive than donner but still cheap-ish" category

[@emmineffin]

Great cheap pedal. Takes care of all my shoegaze needs.

[@nick16754]

The Sonic Ambience pedal is only $37.49 on eBay from the official Sonicake store

[@jdkimple]

THANKS!

[@davidhollowelljr949]

I have a mighty need

[@fingersmike]

Inspired by your videos I have been buying budget pedals to play around with having never really had single fx pedals only multifx. My experience has been that distortion, fuzz and overdrives are worth it but delay and especially reverb are not worth it, just get a tc electronic and you'll only need to buy one and end up saving money. Unless you are into the glitchy sounding reverbs... Maybe the case. Mods are hit and miss, I have a Cool Music multi mod pedal and the dyna filter is worth the price of the pedal, the rest not so much. Thanks for the videos.

[@emilianoantunano4298]

This is amazing, i need those pedals

[@Jaspertine]

The ABY is kind of tempting. Probably the least glamorous pedal there, but certainly useful.

[@jdkimple]

I've a different model ABY box and it is indeed. I use it at the end of the chain to send one signal between two (or both, if you need to get loud) amps. I have also used it at the beginning of the chain to switch between two guitars (different tunings or quick switch if you break a string, for example)

[@JohnnyGuitaristOfficial]

Sweet shoegazing! 👟

[@FerenswayRecords]

18:45 that was fucking AMAZING!

[@cmharris67]

haha, I have two of these, and still couldn't get the box open when the second one came! hahahaha

[@robertthornton2264]

I love that fuzz, my defintely sounds different though. But holy the combo of that plus tha ambience pedal, unbelievable. I have that in my amazon wishlist, better grab it before it becomes 100 bucks.

[@OJA1965]

6:12 Better Call Saul

[@williammorillo657]

And I just bought a pedal Sonicake Sonic ABY box that serves what I need but I don't know if the order of the pedals changes and this pedal would be the first in my chain of pedals

[@zachary963]

You know what kills me? It kills me that pedal reviewers have $50 hardware and complain because the reverb is digital and not terribly high fidelity, AND YET “low-fi digital reverb” plugins for recording on the computer go for easily twice that. Lol.

[@Paul_Lenard_Ewing]

The Flamma makes all the budget verb and delays sound like toys!

[@ronpopeil7]

I have the ABY box. For the $26 I paid it I’d great. Does the job with no extra noise.

[@ottovonnekpunch1268]

Maybe the "C" reverb stands for "Cathedral"?

[@1978garfield]

How do you like that Cyclone? My first guitar a Teisco Del Ray I bought for $30 at a music store had a switch for each pickup. You could use them in any combo. I was disappointed when I realized my better in every other way Squire Strat I bought would only let me use 2 pickups at a time. I see the Cyclone has 3 switches. (Yea I know I could add a push pull switch/ pot for one of the tones, connect the switch to the rear pick up and then I could get all the combinations. I just have never gotten around to it.) When you do neck and middle are they out of phase?

[@qwertymonsta]

Can you check out the Zoom MS-70 CDR? I know it's an older pedal, but there are A LOT of cool tones you can get out of it with the hacked effects manager to add in extra effects. I think it would be cool to load up some presets and compare vs more expensive pedals.

[@Xxmeca421xX]

I can't buy anymore pedals, it's becoming an addiction. Also, did you use white switchcraft switches for your cyclone? I did and the new switches are about a mm off but still fit. I had to use the new screws and equally tighten each side so I could get them centered. I really wanted to use the old chrome screws but they don't fit the threads.

[@60CycleHumcast]

i dont remember how the screws worked out, im sure i have a video of it.

[@KrumpusPlunk]

you just have to tell yourself that if you wanted you could always sell them again to get most of the money back. and then never sell a single one of course.

[@pepuletrz]

i wanna see more pedals with slide faders especially delay or modulating ones.

[@Paul_Lenard_Ewing]

The NUX M-Fuzz is the best of the cheap Muffs. You played for literally 30 seconds. I recognized my old Rams Head. Mind you the Sonicake sounds pretty good as they fixed the bias for a faux germanium voicing. But if it is meant to be that Muff near OD sound it is not.
