Best playing on a pedal review video ever!
Forgot i was here for a pedal.

[Guitar]

Pedal sounds good. John your playing is great!

[bluesbothers]

What a great blues sound and a fantastic player!!

[johnevans]

Nice playing! You guys love the Two Rocks Bloomfield, as do I. The video might have been more relatable had you played it through the Fender in the Foreground. I enjoy your content. 🙂

[KelsterVonShredster]

This pedal kicks absolute ass....I'm running it through a Supro Black Magick and playing an Eric Johnson signature strat and it sounds exactly like in this video

[joepell]

You should link to the video we’re Jesse’s amp is in the bathroom during the live performance. I can’t find it anywhere I searched all over after the Joey Landreth video.

[darrenc]

What's the chances of a sneaky unboxing vid guys. Come on boss. Fender custom shop maybe. Gibson CS. Suhr. Yes you know you want to. I carnt keep watching the fender strat one over and over.

[OleksandrBanashko]

Sounds great. How can I play like you mate? :) Amazing technics

[RJ-lfex]

Great playing man! You need a Strat with a repositioned pickup switch, LOL! Hey, are those gold frets?

[joshua]

This sounds a lot more natural than the Jan ray or dualist to my ears, I dig it. I wonder how it goes up against the gladio sc

[justinsmith]

Do you prefer this (Bluespower) or the Duelist?

[tonecontrol]

If you could only have one pedal and the choices were the King Tone Blues Power, KT Soloist or Brown Amplification Protein (v2)? I have all three and can dial in the Protein to sound like the BP on one side and the Soloist on the other. Does anyone agree? (Pre CBS Fender tube amps/62' Fender CS Strat)

[xderiwx]

Hey John, do you use the Blues Power primarily as an always-on pedal to shape a base tone, or as an OD/Boost for solos? Stacked with other OD pedals?

Thanks!

[snipershot]

Sorry I must have missed which amp your'e playing through?

[jakefriesenjake]

Does the playing technique come with that tone?

[rayellul]

Hello can I firstly say great demo.I am looking to buy this pedal haven't actually tried it out for myself yet. My problem is I have neighbours so can this pedal sound like you played but at lower volumes .That is playing in the garage and bedroom.I look forward to your reply.

[cox]

a demo on a so expansive amp which sound already incredible this is not the right thing to do

[colinrobertson]

So expensive. I've got the kingtone switch in one of my Strats and its great but this is steep.

[alftupper]

Overdrive for the more discerning on then: sometimes lady.

[Ganache]

Great pedal. But the Nordland ODR-C is better. Similar full spectrum tonal frequency, but the Nordland is more spongey, clearer, has more gain range, the mids can be tweaked, and it’s more amp like.
