That Pedal Show | Les Paul Vs SG [Four Awesome Guitars, Four Classic Amps] @ThatPedalShow | Uploaded January 2023 | Updated October 2024, 1 hour ago.
What’s your favourite – Les Paul or SG?
Welcome to the show! It’s with some surprise when we say that – despite an embarrassment of lovely electronical guitars – TPS has been devoid of a dual-humbucker Gibson SG to date.
Now then, Mick is in search of just such a beast and thanks to a bit of chance and the generosity of Gibson, we’ve been able to borrow a flippin’ unbelievable Murphy Lab ’64 SG Standard with Maestro Vibrola. Woop!
So let’s do this – two seriously lovely Les Pauls, one jaw-dropping SG and one genuine vintage 1961 Les Paul Junior… played through a genuine ’50s Fender Tweed, a ’60s AC30, reissue Plexi Marshall and a bit of ’80s Boogie gloriousness.
Questions…
• What does R8 and R7 mean?
It’s an unofficial short name for Gibson Custom [Shop] 1958 and 1957 Les Paul models respectively. Full guitar details and names below. R9 would be a 1959 reissue. R0 is a 1960.
• How are the amps set?
- The 1953 Fender Pro-Amp is fully cranked. It’s 18 watts, ish (not 12 like Mick said).
- The 1961 Vox AC30 is in the Brilliant channel, volume at 2 o’clock
- The reissue Marshall 1987x has the channels jumped. High treble at 6, Normal at 5. The Fulltone Tube Tape echo is in the effects loop. It was too kerrrayyzzee in the front.
- The Boogie power amp is set to volume 3 in both channels. High power mode.
Enjoy the show!

Welcome to the show and welcome to Effector Du Jour. Short videos, and as to-the-point as That Pedal Show is ever likely to get.
Crowther Audio’s Hot Cake is one of Dan’s fave OD pedals ever. He’s used this one on and off for, ooooh, since before he was born.
Markus Reeves, our good chum from the UK, has had is head in solder fumes again and come up with the Hot Take – see what he did there?!

You might think the answer is in modern tech. Well not necessarily…
Welcome to the show! It has been said that Daniel and I, well, aren’t exactly early adopters when it comes to the very most modern guitar tech. There are a number of reasons for that, but a very significant one is that with all the latest gizmology, connection protocols, app registration and seemingly bottomless user interfii*, the will of most Average Humans can be sapped entirely before a single note gets played.
So let’s just plug into a bunch of stuff and see if we can have More Fun With Less Tech. Is it even possible?
Enjoy the show…

No! Don’t turn off! There are some genuinely awesome tones in this show
Welcome to the show! Now there are people who think chorus is cheesier than a pair of gorgonzola grundies… more roquefort than rock, if you will. I hope I die before I get mould? Ahem.
Before we condemn it to the leftover bins however, let’s at least understand what we’re throwing away. We’ll start by explaining the basics of the chorus sound, before a longer taste test of the three principle types of stereo chorus wafting from the gently ageing anals of music history.
After you’ve heard some of the epic tones in today’s show, we sincerely hope you’ll revisit the ol’ classic and grate some greatness back into your sound!
Enjoy the show…

Simple things to transform your experience of the Fender Hot Rod Deluxe guitar amplifier… should you want to
Welcome to the show! We published a video on July 14 2023, exploring ways in which you can tame the somewhat visceral nature of Fender’s Hot Rod Deluxe… should you wish to. That video was full of useful stuff, but many of you came back with a bunch of other suggestions, some of which are very simple and effective.
Here are our faves among those suggestions, as we explore yet more ways to turn this amp into something more usable for lower volume use.
Please enjoy the show!
SAFETY WARNING! Valve guitar amplifiers contain potentially lethal voltages. If you’re in ANY doubt about changing valves, don’t do it - take it to a tech.
