Thank you so much for sharing the spiritual nature of the sounds we produce. Grace and peace to you, Charl.

Thank you so much!

I feel you brother, truly insightful and this is the true essence of worship in spirit & truth.

[@WorshipGuitarSkills]

Hi @davidvohbik, good to hear from you. Thanks for watching the video.

[@dennisdewinter1997]

Thanks for another great video. I have been using a pedal board in my worship playing for church for quite some time but it’s always refreshing to hear some new insights into the signal chain and different effects. Thanks so much.

[@WorshipGuitarSkills]

Thanks Dennis!

[@drchikosi]

This comprehensive tutorial on guitar effects covered a wide spectrum; it is a bonus to thousands. I’ve been trying to battle with the difference between each one of the pedals for a long time. Thanks

[@WorshipGuitarSkills]

You're very welcome!

[@larrycavallucci3258]

I recently bought a POD GO, so fewer options than the Helix, but also half the price! Besides, I always have an EQ on----since it's a hard-wired slot, and a reverb, that one takes up one of the 4 blocks. I then have 3 open blocks, for which I typically use a Delay, then an Overdrive. I do not use any "distortion" as the church congregation would freak out over some major fuzz tones! haha. The overdrive also acts as a Vol booster. Then I have a choice for the last open block, and sometimes use a Chorus. I have a PRS SE Custom 24, but I mostly use a Fender Tele Hybrid model, with 3 noiseless SC pickups and a 5-way switch, the 2 diagonal ones emulate a Strat. When I do use the PRS I like it's push/pull knob, to go back and forth between SC and HB's. THANKS for your VID! It'd be nice to know which types of pedals you did use for the one ambient sampling.

[@WorshipGuitarSkills]

Hi @larrycavallucci3258 That sounds awesome. Sounds like you have all the tones covered. In this video I was using my kemper with the effects built in. Thanks for watching the video!

[@bensoncope1006]

Wow sounds like the Edge from the 80’s, wonder if he knew how much he would inspire “worship” music!!! King David had an acoustic instrument no “effects”, and most importantly the anointing, which I have found most Christians sadly don’t know the difference!!!

[@WorshipGuitarSkills]

Hi @bensoncope1006 Good to hear from you! You're right, sometimes we all can forget why we do something, but it's important to always come back to the heart of worship, whether it's with an instrument or even without. Thanks for your comment and thanks for checking out the video.

[@EastTXTomandCandy]

My friends and I went and saw U2 during the Unforgetable Fire tour in Dallas back in the 80s and while singing alone I suddenly felt something I had never felt before at a rock show. My soul connecting with the Lord! During 40 I felt it so hard I walked out in full worship mode and my eyes filled with tears. It was just too beautiful. Decades later I felt the same thing during a worship conference I was atteneding for a church and was like wait a minute. I've heard this before, I felt this before. The Edge! Did he invent moderan worship quitar tone? lol Someone needs to bake a movie about history of worshiop music thorugh the 90's, and 2000's. Good stuff!

[@tyesworshipguitar]

Awesome! Thanks for this! Praise God!

Hi Charl. I’m enjoying your channel. How amazing that you always bring God to the centre of your video. I’m truly blessed by your consistent messages, encouragement and sharing your gift and skills. As a fellow South Afr (in Aus) I just want to say thank you for being a true and inspiring Worshiper. Very motivational and always make me remember why and Who we are doing this for.

[@WorshipGuitarSkills]

Thanks for the kind words Daniel. Much appreciated!!

[@4thewin759]

Great video. Thank you! Praise God for sharing. Hope you will be able to create patches for POD GO. Maybe for most of us, this is the only modeler or similar produxcts we can afford to buy. 😊

Thanks, we'll try and get a Pod Go for that reason.

Thank you Jonas!

[@amenjohnpaulrenato]

Very helpful video! Just a request, maybe you can create a video on how you dial in starting on your signal chain from compressor to verb with your humbucker pups so we can learn about your approach to get that kind of tone. Blessings!

[@WorshipGuitarSkills]

I do a breakdown on my tone in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oqvXXq1sedF8ndk

[@regienaldpurisima8492]

Watching from Philippines!!

[@WorshipGuitarSkills]

Welcome!

[@ookami692]

Loving this video. Absolutely great resource for those trying to dial in their tone, and their heart, for worship. Side note: that fuzz was fantastic! What was that? Lol

[@WorshipGuitarSkills]

Thanks for the feedback and support! I'll have to look at what the Fuzz model was. Loads of fun for sure!

[@double-r4975]

Helix has a clean, easy-to-use, computer-based editor that would allow you to visually demonstrate everything you were talking about, with details on values and levels. This would have made this video 100% more useful and informative. You don't even have to worry about diagramming the signal chain yourself, HX Edit literally does it for you. I kept waiting and waiting thinking, surely he's going to show us, at the very least, a screen shot of his signal chain, but no such luck. What was the thinking behind this omission?

[@WorshipGuitarSkills]

Hi @double-r4975 Thanks for your comment, it really helps us when we get feedback like this. The overall aim for this video wasn't necessarily to give you guys the exact parameters on the effects we use in the helix, but rather to give an overview of what tone is made up of. We will definitely keep HX edit in mind for the future when we do tone based videos, because as you said, it would make the videos a lot more informative. Thanks for pointing this out and thanks for watching the video!

[@MyHoneyJo]

Hi, Im from the Philippines. I've been following you and watching your videos that are really helpful in our worship team. I am just wondering if you can show us an ambient preset using the Cuvave Cube Baby. It really works with worahip services however it is not the same tune and tone as we are listening to it. Thank you and God bless you more.

[@WorshipGuitarSkills]

Unfortunately I'm not familiar with that unit.

[@changingparadigm]

Thank you for the great video. Do you have any of you Helix patches available to purchase/ download? Love the tone

[@WorshipGuitarSkills]

Yes. You can check them out here: shop.worshipguitarskills.com

[@changingparadigm]

@@WorshipGuitarSkills thanks I found them yesterday and purchased.

[@Robowx]

Hi Charl. Have you thought about doing a True Fire course?

[@WorshipGuitarSkills]

I haven't no. Good idea. We're currently offering courses and coaching at our website as well.

[@bordstumalian5174]

No hx stomp or pod go presets to purchase in your website?

[@WorshipGuitarSkills]

Hi @bordstumalian5174 We have presets for both the hx stomp and pod go, it's just not in the store yet. We will put it in there soon though. Have a good one!

[@Pushyhog]

I love how he’s the only person who goes to the Bible before anything else.

[@nobnobnobnob]

There is no such thing as a "Worship Guitar tone". This is beyond ridiculous. If Jesus is alive today, he will smash all your guitars like he did when he drove all merchants away from the temple.

[@WorshipGuitarSkills]

Thank you for sharing your perspective. Yes, it's true that worship is not limited by specific guitar tones or instruments. Instead, worship is an expression of our hearts and connection to God. When we talk about "Worship Guitar Tone" on our channel, we refer to a sound that many modern worship musicians have found conducive to creating a reflective atmosphere to lead their congregations in worship. As for Jesus, He was addressing the misuse of a sacred space for profit. Our use of instruments and specifically guitars based on the focus of our channel, is to facilitate worship and enhance the worship experience. We're always striving to honour God and every heart's sincere worship, with or without instruments, is precious. The Bible, particularly the Psalms, frequently mentions the use of stringed instruments in the context of praising and worshiping God.

[@Islamdiewithoutlie]

I looked at your videos and I can see You're a noob at playing an instrument. Be thankful for professionals sharing their giftings to better the rest of us. God bless

[@nobnobnobnob]

@@bennydrumming...2339 Music is the worst form of worship, it's mostly self-centered form of performance. The best worship is sacrificing yourself, helping/serving other people in the name of the Lord.

[@fryer6541]

Dude I don’t even have a tube amp I got the boss katana 100 watts and stressed because I’ve been going to band practice for 12 weeks now and the workshop leader there still says my tone is somewhat dry and a bit muddy and I’m so freaking stressed out man you have no idea. I know you have no idea who I am but if there is any way you could maybe talk about some stuff let me know your email.

[@matthewtaylor203]

If it’s dry add more reverb and if it’s muddy reduce the bass

[@thomaschilds8781]

+1 dry could mean it wants more delay or reverb. It might also mean your tone is a bit scooped, so try some more upper mids. You might also find one of the other channels/gain options cuts through better. If you were using lots of gain, it may be less gain gives clarity. Another thought is whether you are using the amps speaker or using a DI / cable to the sound desk. Getting to know the person serving on the desk and the settings they are using could help. Apologies if you know this stuff already, but hopefully gives some options to try.

[@WorshipGuitarSkills]

Some good advice from Thomas below!

[@fryer6541]

@@thomaschilds8781 hey man, sorry for the late response! Thanks for your help I appreciate it! I knew most of the stuff already and took some time and I think figured it out, I still don’t know my Dustin peddals supper well because I don’t know how mixed in I will be, so I don’t want to have too much gain because I’m playing rhythm and in our band rhythm guitarists are usually the ones that come out of the sound system clearly, so I don’t want to blast the church away with distiortion, however if I’m more mixed in I should be fine to have my peddal daily medium to medium high. Thanks for the feedback! I really appreciate it!!!!
