Ep. 31 - Analog Man Mike Piera on Tone-Talk! King of Tone, Sunface, Fuzz, Vintage Gear and T-Snub

[@ToneeDee]

Mike comes across like a super nice guy. Every AM pedal I’ve owned has been a winner!!

[@cicaesp]

I've had my ts9 mod for probably 20 years. my dog peed on it. it still works and sounds lovely

[@scramblesthedeathdealer]

​@@cicaespMy small cat loves climbing on my pedal board, PC keyboard, synths...

[@krispatel1]

What a legend. Being from the UK I can never watch live but it certainly makes work less productive the next day

[@coldacre]

love the laid back nature of this chat! very enjoyable to listen to... Mike’s a legend. subscribed!

[@98Vols]

THE King of Tone Literally

[@briankehew579]

Ground zero for pedal nerds!

[@michaelmontano2492]

This was a monster episode Mike is someone we could never get enough info out of He reminds me of the guy who showed you all the tricks when you first get into playing, using effects, dialing in amps If we could get mike back on the fans would truly appreciate it Analogman effects are our favorites , all of the players who are really into this stuf

[@waynedenton4209]

Thanks for having Mike. Great show again.

[@Scratch_Monsters_Golf]

This channel only having 5k subs is unbelievable. Criminally underrated

[@tone-talk]

John O'Mary Thank you! We agree! 🤘🤘 Hopefully it will grow a lot soon

[@jimmynorris]

How is there only 425 likes?!? This is so great. Mike seems like such a cool dude. Looks like I’m finally getting a KOT for Christmas-ish.

[@RMPMcDermott]

I'm 2 years late viewing this, but just wanted to say I placed an order for a double Bad Bob while Mike was touting them in the video. Thank you for doing this interview Mike, Dave and Marc!

[@Robstafarian]

The rotary pedal which Mike was trying to remember probably is the Neo Instruments Ventilator.

[@stevenbryan7586]

Just found this channel recently. Great content, and have to say that I wouldn't give up my KoT for three times the cost. Just the best sounding drive produced.

[@tone-talk]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@ITheFight]

quality over quantity, we love you Mike.

[@scottmcarthur2201]

Great show as usual. Love Analog Mike and his products. Have quite a few and they are some of the best out there, IMO. Keep up the great work Marc and Dave!

[@rodgoodbrand5359]

MIke should get a photographer in and take a cool shot of the chaotic amp wall. I would love a poster of that wall.

[@oansun]

Mini Sunface with just a volume knob is such a brilliant idea tho

[@MrDonc78]

I have the paia quadrafuzz rack that was one of the most killer fuzzs I've ever heard. It split the original frequency into 4 parts and then fuzzed them out individually, as well as each of them having their own output. I need this thing in a pedal!

[@scramblesthedeathdealer]

Now you're making me want the rack version 😂

[@GtrPknMama]

Thanks for makin the good stuff Mike!😎👍

[@Joe-mz6dc]

I bought an East River Drive and I like it. Now I just need a Friedman Fuzz Fiend. I like the sounds of the demos. And I don't care about pedal size. It's very cool. I also own a King of Tone. Beautiful. When my name came up on the waiting list I was shocked. It took so long I forgot about it lol

[@FreddieandBrenda]

Time flies when you having fun.. I love this show. Thanks

[@tone-talk]

Freddie an Brenda Busshart Thank you!!!

[@craigp2569]

What a great channel! I can’t wait to catch some live chats!🤟😴

[@craigp2569]

I meant 🤟🤓 don’t know how this 😴came in??? Lol

[@scienceisgod1]

This guy Mike is cool! Really good episode!

[@hieronymus932]

Love the haunting mids pedal in the background

[@analogspam]

Good eye, a REAL HM pedal ;)

[@mcduffben]

Bought an EHX East River OD after this show.

[@avgjoegat8126]

I just got on the KOT list!

[@scramblesthedeathdealer]

Ok, I've heard about AnalogMan pedal mods and stuff, right off the rip, Mike had me laughing about the Japanese "transistors" 🤣

[@ronnieo.6647]

Great episode! I’ll be sure to watch more!

[@Robstafarian]

Thanks to this episode, I am going to buy a Fuzz Fiend whilst I still can!

[@justinespinosa7878]

Great show! Time to get on the list

[@clydehannah1056]

Loved the show Sincerely Thank You

[@CodyWolfeVevo]

Hey Dave I checked out that tube fuzz pedal and its SICK, only problem is its a tube fuzz pedal if there's a way to get that sound without the tube it'd be 1000% better. I LOVE the oscillation effect, great thinking there. I was looking at the Kingsly Harlott for a while, great pedal, but also a tube pedal. The issue with that is touring, I don't wanna be on the road in BFE and worry about replacing a tube on my pedal. Finding tubes is an issue too with the shortages now. More things to go wrong, also with tube pedals as you mentioned the power is an issue. I hope you sell some of these great sound for the bedroom or just for fun player.

[@mojostrat58]

I dig the Tootsie Rolls, Fire Balls and Analogman King of Tone...

[@BV_Beve]

Great Mike, Marc & Dave

[@CodyWolfeVevo]

This is my favorite episode!

[@rbsams72888]

Such a great show

[@jeddak]

Great episode!

[@Thomasdgolden]

I’d love to see Mikes Board.

[@mikefenton5634]

You have to get a Robert Keeley on now please.

[@tone-talk]

Mike Fenton he’s coming on December 3rd. Check it out!

[@mikefenton5634]

Tone-Talk the day after my birthday, already got a reminder set after seeing your Instagram post.

[@MAP448]

Great Panel. Next time maybe push the mute button when making all the candy & drink noises. That was extremely hard to deal with but I liked the guys so much I did everything that I could to suffer through it, if only to soak up some knowledge from some of the best. Thanks guys.

[@tone-talk]

Thanks we’ve improved the sound a great amount since this show. Thanks!

[@scramblesthedeathdealer]

I will not run my pedals on batteries, I have a Pedal Power 2, but I'm out of spots, I have a OneSpot with a daisy chain connector I can use for an extra couple outputs. Maybe i should just streamline my setup some... 🤷‍♂️

[@stanislavmigra]

Everyone, who is complaining about long waiting time for KoT should watch at least first 30 minutes of this.

[@timec818]

Thanks again cool show thanks 👍🤘😊

[@johnmcelhaney8490]

FYI I love Mike and this is not a snubb at all.. I have had probably more money than one should ever spend on TS and variants. I just want to say as sad as it is to say. That damn Bad Money is magic. There is something there that always interacted with my amp, maybe because I was a JMP into a 4x12, but man that pedal is still magic. I think I have a few of them in my studio still.

[@the-creech4790]

I really need a Peppermint Fuzz!

[@brianrodman1033]

stratocat62 it is such a killer fuzz. So much character in that one, like an extra rude fuzz face.

[@whotendsthefire7234]

I want the "dark peppermint fuzz" pedal but they stopped making them:(

[@syfman6]

Electronics Master Class...💚🎸

[@MrAletube]

Alnico magnets give more harmonics,thats why its not anymore used in HiFi or pa

[@ThemFuzzyMonsters]

Alnico magnets used to be very common in HiFi, but it has become almost twice the price of a regular magnet alloy.

[@somebodyelseuk]

Ceramics are used because they're cheaper, lighter and they don't lose their charge.

[@TheDogPa]

Hard to watch live when I never know when, or what time, there will be a show.

[@tone-talk]

If you subscribe to the channel and hit that little bell 🛎 it will notify you when we go live. That way you don’t ever have to miss a live show. Also, please go to our Facebook page or Instagram page or Twitter and you can see our announcements. I’ll post each below for you. Thank you for your feedback

I subscribe here and was online, but youtube never notified me. I do not do other social media or ever check a gmail account, so if it is not a certain day at a certain time, or youtube does not light up with the little red 'live' indicator, I guess I'll just have to get lucky to catch it. Always a great show...really waiting for a Dylana show...and hope I see it live! Maybe you can post a teaser vid the day before a show here, like some do, so we can plan to be here? Keep up the great shows! Thanks!

[@tomulator]

Dave...I've purchased two Friedman amps (Runt 50 and BE-50 Deluxe)...do I get a free Friedman shirt???

[@geezberry8889]

mike modded an sd-1 for me way back in the 90's it was the silver mod i believe

[@RGGifford]

On the Klon KTR: "Kindly remember: the ridiculous hype that offends so many is not of my making."

[@davidseal6863]

And some Klons are just junk but nobody will tell you that!

[@ghostface_grilla1155]

Always dug Alalogman stuff way way more than Keeley.

Analog Mike is down to some clickin' 2:50:04 - 2:52:01. Meme material 2:48:24

LOL! Sorry, the cable pulled out of my Tele and I thought it was a pedalboard issue (and that I was off screen)

Placed my order for the Anal Log Man KOT pedal like 4 years ago and never got an email. Be nice to get that notification email that it's time to pay up. (pun intended)

[@tone-talk]

go to their website and look up where they are for current builds. Look up when you sent the email to them and it will let you know how much longer you have

[@theshyguitarist]

@@tone-talk This was like 4 years ago. My number should have been up way before now.

[@tone-talk]

@@theshyguitarist nope i'm on almost 4 and 1/2 years and still waiting

[@curtisslow]

Can the prince of tone run at a higher voltage like the king of tone?

[@burresseffects]

Sooooo Mike doesn’t build or even play all the KoT’s himself but he looks at them and signs them? Great pedals and great company but I’m shocked he doesn’t build all the KoT’s himself. I hope it’s in the fine print of the website for those who are waiting two years for a supposedly “built by Mike” pedal.

[@tone-talk]

You are trying to start something that doesn’t exist. Analogman is a company with staff. That staff makes his products. Nothing to see here

[@Gorilla.Guitar]

t-snub.. shrink wrap?

[@somebodyelseuk]

Put a Big Bob in the front of a Dirty Shirley for creamie results 🤣 One of you should bring out a product called 'Pearl Necklace'. 🤣

[@BitMatt1]

Mike on the program and they talk about candy.

[@tone-talk]

Matthew Spicka did you listen to the show or you just want to make stupid comments? We talk about candy for about 2 minutes out of 3 hours. We discussed every pedal the guy makes and tons of topics. You couldn’t have watched the show if that’s what you took away from it.

[@robertbogdan7058]

Any sources for NKT 275?

[@luckylicks3497]

If so, it would most likely be a secret to protect from forgery. Think that's what Mike said once.

[@whotendsthefire7234]

NKT 275 is simply beautiful in my Beano boost!

[@MrSimondaniel3]

not to be a dick, but it seems a little distasteful for those wealthy musicians to buy up all the lower priced used stuff, "vans full" of awesome, cheap instruments that otherwise could have gone to local players who dont have much $. why do you think kids today dont appreciate tube amps, vintage fx, teles? there arent many left available, + theyre thousands $. Yes its a free country, + im sure those guys legit needed like 30 guitars. But this sounds like way more, plus most of the echoplexes, vintage fuzz, etc. Now we've got a few people with hundreds of classic guitars + amps, they cant possibly put them all to use... its like 1% of people having 99% of the wealth. thats life i guess but its not beneficial to anyone really.

[@tone-talk]

Daniel Simon thanks for watching and your comment. Back then these guys knew what to look for and took advantage of knowing what to find. I don’t think they were rich but maybe I’m wrong. They just knew what was good to get and hold on to. That’s my theory. Anyway thanks!

[@filteredwaters9171]

Hey it’s cool...sorry if we came across that way. I can assure you it’s not intentional and Mike certainly seems to be humble. Anyway thanks for watching! We appreciate it. Check us out this Friday!
