T-Rex ToneBug Reverb

[mamealer]

Andy could play a $10 Strat knockoff through a blown stereo using a pile of horse manure as an effect pedal and it would sound like gold! Great demo! Sold me on this pedal!

[ProGuitarShopDemos]

@mamealer Wow, Thanks!

[zrouth]

Great video. What other pedals did u use to get that talk show host feel?

[StatusMusicDesign]

There is freedom within...there is freedom without...

[jem7772]

just got one, it makes a ton of noise and rf interference, rather disappointed

[stretch90]

@jem7772

So you don't think it's very good? Which pedal are you going with instead?

[TheGuitarSean]

killer white stripes cover!!

[bluesman12125]

bought one an hour ago and it's fantastic!! Very clear tone

[stretch90]

@bluesman12125

So do you still like it? I'm really thinking about getting this or the tc hall of fame.

[johnthemanrivers]

white stripes!! :]

[DTitz331]

@johnthemanrivers haha as soon as i heard that i was like hey! thats the white stripes!

[SlashGibson1000]

Pixies :)

[druno82]

I'm not familiar with this company. I LOVE the sound of this pedal, though.

[greensidedown]

Heartattack In A Layby!

[frank00nixon]

Yeah!!! The Shins!!!!

[brunskies92]

Is this a digital or analog?

[BigNoseMusic]

@brunskies92

I dont think they put a tiny spring inside that tiny stompbox so i gues it's digital

[Viscerok]

This is the best review so far Andy. What a beautiful combination of pedals, guitars and amps.

[topper326]

very cool. looks retro . love it

[userboy6]

anyone have any thoughts as to how this compares to the Hermida Reverb?

[MrMutron]

"I Just Dont Know What To Do With Myself" 1:50 ...Classic White Stripes

[44eelz]

what i like about Andy is that he rarely plays boring repetitive blues solos that everyone else does. he plays riffs and rhythm parts which is what most guitarists are into.

[gamergeek3000]

no level knob? :(

[McFro95]

it looks like a fridge from the 60's lol

[gamergeek3000]

@McFro95 yes,

[Chainmail]

white stripes:D

[TheEchomaker]

Hey Andy would the hardwire reverb be able to make the same reverb shown at 2:40 or at least one very simliar?

[vedt1]

Love the Radiohead play.

[GuitarGuy0008]

can't choose between this and the Holy Grail, wish I could try them both out :(

[aektzis91]

@GuitarGuy0008 i own the holy grail, im not entirely happy with it and am considering swapping it for the tonebug

[constellchicken]

@GuitarGuy0008 same problem, i think this is the better choice tough

[d0d0Lgarutz]

digital or analog?

[superlou1s]

@d0d0Lgarutz- All reverb that isn't a spring tank is digital. Spring tanks are the things they stick in expensive fenders, so it's a digital, but that doesn't mean it's bad.

[d0d0Lgarutz]

@superlou1s so, even the tube trex room-mate is digital

[skurtix]

@superlou1s Real plate echos are also analog

[aektzis91]

what was the last song you played? sounded like radiohead but i couldnt recognise the song??

[dattoboy1]

@aektzis91 Talk Show Host by Radiohead :)

[Thefrozencoconut]

Is this true bypass ?

[studio1087]

The Tonebug sounds great with the overdrive.

I have a Boss FRV-1 ad the Boss pedal sounds great clean but the reverb sounds horrible with overdrive.

Why do some reverb pedals lose their warmth when you add overdrive?

I'm tempted to buy a Tonebug. Nice video.

[griffinmpable]

its nice hearing you do some White Stripes!

[MayonaiseKing100]

damn, whats the song at 2.40?? i know it, i get the impression its in a part of a song where some one talks over it...

[davidtheguitarman]

there is freedom within, there is freedom without

try to catch the deluge in a paper cup.

[SamCurran41]

radiohead!!!!!! sounds amazing

[bananapuddinlove]

+1 for Andy....It takes balls to go worldwide demoing a badass reverb pedal and come right out of the gate with Crowded House.

[Juansamisterica]

radiohead!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! *.*

[senortimm]

what song is being played at the beginning?

[Timeconsumer9]

The White stripes cover of I just dont know what to do with myself ftw!

[figaz555]

@Timeconsumer9

It's actually a dusty springfield song. Lol

[UlisesBerrueco]

@ProGuitarShopDemos True bypass? Looking for a reverb

[TheEpicion]

@UlisesBerrueco

You could try the holy grail;

[TRexEffects]

Thanx for making this great video.

All the best

T-Rex Torsten

[ProGuitarShopDemos]

@TRexEffects - Thank you!

-PGS Video Crew

[guitargeant]

@robfisher1 Ah, I see that makes sense thanks for shedding light on the mystery!

[guitargeant]

@ProGuitarShop Is this digital or analog?

[robfisher1]

@guitargeant

digital. all pedal reverbs are, except the ones that contain miniature springs. there are quite a few of those on the market but they don't sound all that great.

[theShowStopper321]

@robfisher1 How come they can make analog echo but not analog reverb stomp boxes? Why does it need springs? There are other types of ambience.

[Hellad00d]

God i love this pedal, I really like the modern setting. I would buy it but I have a major problem with this pedal... I hate the way it looks... I know this sounds stupid but T-rex went the wrong way for me with this retro looking thing, I am being an idiot by saying I wont buy it because of its looks but hey.

[tontosterricolas]

this pedals is "true by pass" ? thanks

[theShowStopper321]

Is this digital?

[wyost]

This review has me seriously reconsidering the Cathedral Reverb which is in the mail. Some real fantastic sounds here, the song choices are an added bonus.

[topografer]

This pedal is really good. The tone is so sweet and natural

[ErmisLeventakis]

Talk Show Host at 2:41...hell yeah!!!!

[GruvisMutt]

with a gun and a pack of sandwiches, and nothing...nothing.

[nickb7665]

@ErmisLeventakis Talk show host what's that?

[ludvik199t]

pulp fiction yheah :D

Iii loove this pedal!

[jakethequake91]

I bought both of tonebug pedals not too long ago, and they're two of the best pedals I own, and I have a decent amount of pedals haha. I will say that I quite like the Chicklet now though...

[favre4ever1995]

This one, spring chicken or boss FRV-1? Playing vintage garage rock and surf. Thanks

[adictpunkriot]

frv-1 i bought one a week ago it sound awesome its the perfect emulation of the tank :)

[favre4ever1995]

thanks man

[asdfguy]

i trade my verbzilla for this and a gcb95.. ripped that fool offff!

[atli94]

hahah like on that!

[topicrass]

@asdfguy

mothqfucker!

[asdfguy]

hahaha yeeeeeuh boyyy!

[trojancelis]

@asdfguy hi mate, im wondering, why did you trade your verbzilla ? is this better sounding than the verbzilla? cuz i have the verbzilla and im looking to buy a more "analog sounding" spring reverb. Im between this one and the nano holly grail, could you give me any tips ? you seem like the right guy since you´ve owned both lol !

[jfgirard14]

I bought this pedal and it is one of my best pedals!

[gweaterman]

Dick Dale hells yea

[ramonesarehere]

this one or the malekko spring chicken..?

cant decide....

[carlosdlguerra]

sprig chicken

[ivaneu]

Chicklet malekko or spring chicken? LOL XD

[chooseyourblues]

Is the reverb plugged directly into the input of the amp? Or is it in an effects loop?

Will this pedal go crazy if used with Overdrive?

[ilovemyfender1]

effects loop

[ilovemyfender1]

Analog?

[rogueguineapig]

"don't dream it's over" was covered by Sixpence NTR, but played originally by Crowded House. So yes, they both "did" it.

[alcoholman01]

such a cool lookin pedal, great sound too

[amarr1]

Talk Show Host

[Breyley]

you guys are all idiots,

jspartacus was correct all along.

now go cry.

[lesscunning]

what was that song playing in the background in the beginning?

[tysancho1]

Nice White Stripes.

[william1theguitarwah]

hi guys, im looking for a super transparent reverb that will give me a super short realy concentrated snappy sound, something thats simple u know, not like a big thing with loads of knobs

[popomczowzow]

At 1:26 sounds like the chords to Santeria

[Haydza3100]

wats the song he starts playing at 2:41?

[dickeelvis]

Radiohead

[TomMunster]

Talk Show Host - Radiohead

[aaronready1]

nice radiohead!

[Elimnio]

Romeo&Juliet!

[joser4471]

Congratulations Andy you are the first one that test a reverb pedal with distortion. I,ll get this with the lovepedal purple plexi for my marshall plexi. Thanks

[benjaminpicard]

Does anyone know the song at 1.15?

[JamesG335]

might be Stone Temple Pilots

[texacaster]

Don't Dream It's Over by Crowded House

[Xguitarist17]

WRONG!

dont dream it's over by sixpence none the richer

[jspartacus]

WRONG!

"Dont' Dream It's Over" is by Crowded House.

[watkinscopicat]

looks fantastic!

[fullmetalfunk]

I like the boutique design.

[TheLetheProject]

I'm really digging both the reverb and distortion pedals.

[srjwill]

Great song selection again. You make me wanna buy every pedal you demo

[renedingelstad]

could you also post a video with only the tonebug overdrive?

[foolintherain10]

did you have this pedal plugged into an amp or where you using a software to record?

[ProGuitarShopDemos]

We use a Fender Deluxe Reverb Reissue for pedal demos at this time

[theShowStopper321]

@ProGuitarShopDemos How come they can make analog echo stomp boxes but not reverb? Its all ambience. How come they need springs? there are other types of ambience.

[bigskymind81]

2:41 RADIOHEAD

[BrettInSeries]

Why thumbs down for Radiohead!? The hell is wrong with you dudes!

The pedal sounds great! I really wanna get one!

[yehanjehan]

So many great songs in one demo !

[smleh]

great choice of songs...

[baseballnolie34]

Based on the video, I'd say this even beats the Malekko Spring Chicken, and I really liked the Spring Chicken.

I might actually buy this!

[fisniku8972]

whats the song at 0:27 plz anyone who knows tell me i have benn searching it for a long time

[NORRATHBEAST]

Dick Dale Misirlou

[tylerjones2]

Misirlou by Dick Dale

[AcousticBlip]

Miserlou by Dick Dale.

[fisniku8972]

thanks appreciate it

[speSHO]

wow, very impressed with the Shins playing in the intro. Excellent job Andy

[NKOITH]

is that the white stripes?

[skabucksfan]

yeah

i just don't know what to do with myself

check out the vid with kate moss ;)

[noxious333]

I just don't know what to do with myself ^^

[BiggSteve777]

yep... Their vesion of Burt Bacharach's "I don't know what to do with myself"

[ArthurStephenHicks]

they did a cover of it. i can't remember who the original was by.

[ArchyMailbo]

Dusty Springfield

[libertyfalls]

wow... this is the first reverb pedal i would actually consider buying.

[BigNoseMusic]

yeah!!! i dont know what to do with myself!

[Wakisazhi]

Wow Talk Show Host, great choice to demo the reverb with. Actually I was kinda expecting Street Spirit but still a great pick nonetheless.

[WhitikerForest]

awesome... want one!!!!

[HakStam]

What is the song at 2:37?

[logankortes]

Talk Show Host... by Radiohead

[castout85]

Radiohead - Talk Show Host

[semderem]

what's the song starting at 2:42 ? it seems familiar!

[semderem]

what's the song starting at 2:42 ? i know it from somewhere but i can't quite remember :(

[william1theguitarwah]

god i realy want one of these

[skyoon]

talk show host :)

[DavePerry2012]

For some reason your videos all have (unintentional) distortion on them, but otherwise they are cool.

[sidetablesillyhat]

I don't hear any. Are you listening through good speakers? or are you talking about the tube amp breakup?

[vi0lat0r]

oh god I love crowded house. i ordered a spring chicken by malekko a while back(still waiting for it to come in) and am wondering how does this compare in your opinion andy?

[javiceres]

me too.

Actually I felt in love with the sound of the Malekko hearing it here and after hearing all the reverb demos available on PGS and my Boss GT-10 reverbs

[benrox26]

haha andy playing crowded house

[jingwah]

i like the new design mm

[Antestor]

shinssssssssssssssss

[Joshplaysinstruments]

It was really cool that you played that Black Eyed Peas riff.

[Beefgog]

More like Miserlou by Dick Dale.

[scotty688]

lol its not meserlou either i forgot the name but miserlou copied it

[Sonnythemobster]

what? but dick dale was god of surf guitar. what song did he rip off?

[Lioanimals1977]

Black Eyed Peas riff???????????

[ProGuitarShopDemos]

please.

[jazzvi]

hahaha! please!

[punkstrat101]

Well said!

[doogdoogdoog]

Hahahah..

Nice lookin' and nice soundin' box.

[MesaBoogieF30]

[*facepalm*] Miserlou by Dick Dale. It's a Greek Folk Song...

[prompen3]

It's Dick Dale's miserlou......

[doow09]

ahahahahahhahaha :D thumbs up dude! :D

[JeanEstienne]

NO, Misirlou ^^

[Drakillon]

MISIRLOU is the original riff... not Black Eyed peas dude... Do you really think they could come up with a backing track that cool by themselves ? XD

[Blade686]

More like Pulp Fiction as ruined by Black Eyed Peas.

[bloodySunday77]

Miserlou is actually not by Dick Dale, it's just that he performed the most well-known cover, shot to fame by the Pulp Fiction soundtrack. The actual song is a Greek one, check Wikipedia.

(Great reverb, by the way. Beautiful, too!)

[jewfro9000]

its their riff, they sampled that track (or covered the song im not really sure). but i agree, sick riff

[Itsooz]

idiot...

[jakethequake91]

So someone honestly thought that the black eyed peas made that up? I didn't even think of them when I heard that. All I thought of was surfing and the goofy (yet awesome) 50s/60s toons that went along with it haha

[tolchok89]

Hey now, hey now, don't dream it's over...

[OneTimer1127]

Talk Show Host!!
