Bear in mind that, in the '60s and '70s, a "pedalboard" was likely to consist of maybe 3 or 4 pedals, sitting on the floor. The need for compactness didn't really emerge until the late '80s as people started to actually *have* pedalboards with a dozen or more devices needing to fit in a defined space, rather than sprawled out on a rug. Also worth noting that, while 1/4W resistors and DIP op-amps have not changed size in 50 years, electrolytic caps have shrunk dramatically during that period, as have pots. A 10uf/16V cap from 1968 is about the size of a 470uf/63V unit from today. That played a role in obliging big enclosures. Many of the early MXR pedals used tantalum caps. Why? Because you could easily lie them on their side, such that they could fit in a small chassis that wasn't so tall to accommodate electros standing up tall.

@@Aleph_Null_Audio Also quite true. Certainly the availability of small enclosures has been a boon to reducing pedal size, but those smaller enclosures could only have uptake because so many other factors - smaller caps, pots, switches, and double-sided boards - made smaller effects possible.

As a child born in 1991, I was raised in middle America, as the middle child, in a middle class family. Being in the bible belt, I was raised on Christian music. My dad worked for our church as the sound/tech guy and my mom ran the church's daycare for a time, worked the church library and many other volunteer positions, along with home schooling us 3 kids. In 2004, my parents divorced and sent my world as I knew it way out into the great beyond. My dad grew up on what we know to be Classic Rock, so when his now angsty teen who was tossed into the middle of public middle school, he did what any parent would do, introduced me to Van Halen's first album and Pink Floyd's Dark Side Of The Moon. My musical tastes being forever changed from our local Christian radio station to, "Everything that rocks," as another local station puts it, I wanted more. This all being said, Pink Floyd's The Wall was the first big album that I fell in love with. I listened to it over and over. My dad and I watched the movie. We watched Roger Water's version of it. It holds a special place in my life, because I can only imagine that my dad and I share the same fondness of it, he just got to hear it when it first came out.

My favorite big album is the Byrds Sweetheart of the Rodeo expanded version. It includes tons of outtakes and Gram Parsons prior band the International Submarine Band. Absolute classic.

I know this is out of place here but it has to do with Spring Reverb Tanks in pedals or amps. OMG the old Grey Tuck & Roll Kustom 100 Watt SS Combo Amp had a massive and equally noisie Reverb Tank that was so sensitive that it would sound like it was exploding or thunder & lightning strike if you just tapped the amp. That amp ruined a lot of recordings, so I quit using the amps Reverb Tank and started using reverb tanks and reverb effects pedals outside the amp. I finally took the Kustom Reverb Tanks out of the amp and made my own patch to the unit and a patch switch box and put the reverb tank in a box and suspended it within the box using recording mic shock mounts. Then a playing buddy blew the cones out of the front of the face grill literally. I traded the amp for a Fender 65' Twin Reverb and a C Note ! ! ! Effects from yesteryears ??? WoW, that's a lots of Big Gear ago & now I gotta use readers to find my gear and settings and be careful that I don't stomp my boxes to death ! ! ! 😁 Peace & Play On . . . 🎸 😎 DDH 10-3-2019

Next to harmonic whammy dives smacking a reverb tank for the Thunder is one of my favorite guitar tricks

I still listen to Melon Collie on a regular basis. The best thing about it is how, when it first came out, I would listen to the singles: Zero, Bullet, Tonight but as I got older (and more musically aware?) songs like Stumbleine, Porcelina of the Vast Oceans, Thru the Eyes of Ruby became my favourites ... and of course, Lily - such a sly song. Whatever his faults, Billy can write a song. I'm going to cheat for big album and say, the still in my possession from 1990, Remasters - Led Zeppelin. I still remember the day I pulled the plastic off that TRIPLE LP and putting the needle down to hear the first notes of Communication Breakdown. Great day.

As a resident of Milwaukee Wisconsin, Wade's Guitar Shop is awesome. It's where I first saw a JHS Bonsai pedal. And I've bought pedals from that same budget bin, in front of the counter.

Thanks loads Mr JHS for these videos. I'm not a guitarist (I'm a synth guy...) but I love "guitar" pedals and own quite a few. These vids make me laugh soooo much. I really love your presentation style, dry "English" humour (with "English" spelling) and informative approach. Great stuff!

That Gary Hurst pedal is giving me serious Adrian Belew vibe - Big Electric Cat for sure. Big Album: ELO "Out of the Blue." The album's liner notes listed all the gear they used, and lead my child mind to wonder about what was all this gear. It forever changed me. As far as BIG PEDAL... the EMS Synthi Hi-Fli! So big... it needs it's own STAND!

Great episode, but I was slightly disappointed it didn't include two things: 1) A shot of the inside of the pedals, showing how much (if any) wasted space there was inside the enclosure. 2) An actual pedalboard with all of these on it. You might have to take a door off its hinges.
