Andy Martin Visits Dan & Mick: New Pedalboard & Plenty More! That Pedal Show

[@AndyDemos]

Thanks everyone at TPS for an AMAZING time! I love you...there I said it.

[@directassault1662]

I'll add this. You have the best speaking voice in the world of pedal demos also.

[@Robstafarian]

I just subscribed to your channel (thought I had done it previously). Regarding your voice, my mind fills with PGS videos every time I fire up Rocksmith 2014.

[@edadpops1709]

Dan and mick, Andys dad here. We installed many Dimarzio super distortion pickups in Andys Redtail guitars over the early years. Most of them shown ohms in the 13.6 range most all were hot And ground . Probably early 70s not the later 4 wire versions. Many say ceramic magnets are harsh, but not the dimarzios ,check out how they build them sometime.They are Andys favorite pickups ,because it enhances his pickless playing style.His Brownie guitar still has a super distortion in The bridge,and a Dimarzio air bucker in the neck,an awesome combo.Great great show guys. And dad rock will always be cool.😁😉

[@ThatPedalShow]

Mr Martin! First, thank you for the info - there is so much contradictory ‘knowledge’ and folklore about pickups, so it’s great to get a reminder of that by challenging a preconception or two. Same goes for the pickups in the ASAT. :0) Second, thanks for Andy! He has done - and continues to do - the guitar world a great service. All best to you sir!

[@marcador79]

Edad Martin Hi Mr. Martin, I was wondering if you’re still building Redline guitars? I’ve been a big fan of your son’s for a while now, and the guitars you made for him sound great in his demos. Would love to know, thanks!

[@fergadelics]

[@BlakeHallMusic]

I just ran across this episode again. I love seeing Andy being a human. Lol I love his all business videos, but it’s nice to seen him in a relaxed environment.

[@joelbyrne]

My favourite "Andy Riff" is when he demo'd the Orange Tiny Terror and played a brilliant micro version of the WIzzard by Black Sabbath. So cool and such a humble genuine guy. I sent him a message once just saying how much I liked his videos and no nonsense playing style and he took the time to respond to me which I've always remembered. Cool guy!

[@richj4305]

2 years past and I still come back to watch this one. Absolutely one of my favorite episodes. Andy is the coolest.

[@southpaw335]

Just replayed the “here’s my clean tone” section 3 times... TPS and Andy together... it’s like youtube died and went to heaven... cheers Lads

[@AtomicPeacenik]

Andy has nailed the Live at Leeds, late 60’s early 70’s Pete Townshend live tone. What an amazing sound.

[@michaelkay611]

Not to go on, but a couple of things: with Dan and Mick and Andy, just sheer joy of playing guitar and making all these sounds comes through so clearly and it's infectious. Also, Andy just has absurdly great ears and is an incredible player. That's obvious but it bears repeating. His ability to hear the sounds and think of the songs that illustrate what a pedal is doing is unmatched. Getting his thoughts in this long format, which is so different than his usual format, is kind of a revelation. For example, the asymmetrical thing about the vibe sound is the thing I've never been able to put into words about why so many vibe pedals fall short. Thanks Andy! And thanks Dan and Mick! You guys should DEFINITELY do this again.

[@shinjial]

Man, Andy crushed those Jimmy Page tones, unbelievable... it was all there, heavens... shocked Pink Floyd, Metallica... he's killing me

[@oansun]

Remember that time Andy demoed the D&M drive and did a great parody picture? Yeaaa that was great

[@eanroad]

If Andy sees this post, please convince the guys at TC Electronic to put the Alter Ego delays on their Tone Print software so we can edit them! I've asked before and they replied that it was a joint project with Pro Guitar Shop and would consider it. That was a while ago. Regardless, I LOVE my Alter Ego X4! Also, you ROCK! Cheers!

[@garygamble1963]

The KZbin event of the year for sure! I had one of those "grinning like a Cheshire cat" moments when Andy played his Jimmy Page licks with the drive and echo. Just heavenly.

[@pedalgazer7109]

I got to the end and I thought -WHAT- it's over. I could literally watch these three dudes hang out and talk shop for ANY amount of time- 6 hrs- 8hrs- 12 hrs- there's no limit. I would love to see a sequel vid where each of you (three) brings a new pedal (or two etc..) to the table to demo- and you talk about both the pedal but also how to demo the pedal- aka - the context to put it in. This was amazing - thanks guys!

[@CELproductions]

Andy's Keeley 30ms demo is the reason i own one. The time he takes to plan, play and edit doesn't go unnoticed. Making his single pedal demos probably the best on KZbin. Loved the "young lust" demo in this video too. Thanks to TPS for a great episode as usual.

[@chuckdriver7741]

My absolute favorite “That Pedal Show” episode! Andy is brilliant! All three of you gentlemen have been an inspiration for my rebirth as a serious guitarist after four years of silence. Thank you. 🎸🇺🇸🇬🇧

[@FLdb-wj4wc]

Andy definitely one of my favorite guitarists.

[@kroadster3249]

The holy trinity of Pedal Demos in one room. Whatever follows that is bonus. Andy really was the first one for us all when nobody knew how much we needed these videos. He could read the telephone book for me and I would still listen

[@sm19]

When I first started getting into pedals I tried watching a TPS episode and got quickly confused/overwhelmed. So I watched about 500 of Andy's Pro Guitar shop videos, and came back to TPS with some context! You guys were both so pivotal in my musical journey. Love you guys

[@asherbeal8357]

I really appreciate it and I'm sure thousands/millions of others do, too. Hell, my wife knows "Andy at Pro Guitar Shop" and "Dan here, Mick here"! ;-)

[@ebeyslough]

Spectacular. I've watched Andy for about 10 years now and every piece of gear I got is because Andy reviewed and approved it. He's always been able to play a piece that would show off the gear he demos. This is the first time I've really heard Andy talk so free form in a video, and on TPS no less! KZbin is a better place for this. Thank you.

[@benspinks342]

Wonderful episode. It’s always fascinating to see what guys like Andy use because it’s very often more modest than people expect. I think that exposure to every pedal ever released probably teaches you what really matters in the end.

[@SAHOYT71013]

ALWAYS wanted to see a demo of metal tones using a semi-hollow or hollowbody guitar (kind of a doom/stoner metal sort of thing), and to finally see that realized as Andy's guest appearance on TPS is a whole other level of dream demo for me, thanks guys
