MXR Distortion III

[andheisamike]

This is for great a hard rock sound. Rock on!!!!

[SensibleMusician]

First demo of this pedal I've seen somebody playing heavier stuff. Sounds great from what I can hear - tho a regular mic into your audio interface would tell more than the built-in camera mic. Are you happy with the pedal? I'm thinking of getting one.

[DoucheCake76]

Great playing. Really like your guitar too!

[TweedCadillac]

@DoucheCake76

Thanx!

[100roberthenry]

rock on dude..... :)

[CureforMadeline]

Go check out Bad Brains or any of the other hundred predominantly black bands that shaped hard rock... dumb asses.

[HeilTheOperator]

I can't believe how often I read racist messages in you tube, so senseless. But well, I can't expect more from a country who supports racist laws as the SB 1070. I've learned a lot from black people, you have all my respect Tweed Cadillac, thanks for sharing this video!

[Bertinlag]

what are the settings?

[MPericolo]

What amp are you using? & is it tube?

[TweedCadillac]

@MPericolo

A Dr.Z Mini Z combo.........awesome amp BTW!!

[maestaspest]

Black taco..

[Bertinlag]

yeah!!!! Puro rock

[PilotDoofy]

Who the fuck is going to talk shit about a black musician? History lesson kiddos: 90% of what you hear has African origins in rhythm, structure, etc.

Blues, Jazz, Rock & Roll, Country, Metal, and definitely Hip Hop all have their sound because of blacks. The slaves had no where to turn but music, and as selfish as it is, their suffering has lead to some of the most beautiful and soulful music ever created.

Pretty much all white people have done is steal their it and water/dumb it down.

[TweedCadillac]

@PilotDoofy

Thanx for the comments. I'm used to dealing with all the "Strange" comments about me being Black and playing Rock-n-Roll/Metal, from Whites and Blacks. I just laugh and enjoy music.......what ever style it is!!!

[Scumkill2]

@TweedCadillac Sincere words of a good man! :)

[stjustin]

@PilotDoofy whoops i pressed the down button!! sorrry! i meant to press the up button!!

[DreJoystick]

Playng Hard Roc/metal with a funkadelic t-shirt... I'm Ok with this

[tcinpa37]

I don't understand this demo, but you look like you wanna beat up the camera.

[TweedCadillac]

@tcinpa37

Come on, this video is EASY to understand......"Guy Playing Guitar"...see how easy that was?

[tcinpa37]

Oh yeah, now I get it.

[jalaskabtu]

[foursprings]

Apolo Creed Rocks!

[Lemming16]

[raffarafano]

[TweedCadillac]

They are "Good" with humbuckers, but they rock with P90's

[SetnaroD]

Black Metal! \m/

[TweedCadillac]

HeHeHe!

[shedevil126]

Same here this is exactly what I was looking for I was stuck between the MXR distortion+, and the MXR distortion III. Thanks for putting up this clip.

[HuckFoly]

hey thanks for putting this clip up as I was looking for some stuff on the MXR III, and this is exactly what I was looking for. Sounds Great.

[2466VM]

[8ball2day]

[TweedCadillac]

It has p90's and I got it new in 2006

[guitargonzo]

´*-)

[EDWARDTAY55]

Great pedal, and shirt. Long live maggot brain!

[lolerz222]

[ironmaiden20]

Why do you look angry?

[TweedCadillac]

Because I can't play.......IDK

[Detman101]

Lol....I wish I "couldn't play" that awesomely!

Dm

[TweedCadillac]

Thanx!!!!

[joshlespaul1952]

My last comment was supposed to be a reply to fenderz101, crap, it didn't work.

[joshlespaul1952]

That was some great playing. I like the shirt too, haha.

[KCNirvanaKC]

Nice playing, man.

[bongoparty1]

[lesscunning]

[danielocoy]

Tweed? You rock!!!!

[Nirvana777]

funkadelic! sounds good.

[RelicJunky]

Nice Clip!

[rrguitar1]

me too, thats what its about isnt it ? btw that sure is metallica tune!

[Dym88]

it's taken from Soothsayer by Buckethead

[TweedCadillac]

just heard it for the first time today..........the chord progression is close, but his song is awesome, and I'm lame!!

[rrguitar1]

Sounds good, nice early 80's randy rhoads tone going on there! I cant believe some of these people on here have chosen to make the comments that they did. Thats really sad !

[TweedCadillac]

Thanx man!! I try to keep guitar fun. As long as I'm having fun "nothing else matters"(wait... isn't that a Metallica song?)

[JayDeeSG]

What amp and drivers are you pushing with that MXR?

[TweedCadillac]

I'm using a Dr.Z Mini Z amp and the Distortion III only. The guitar is a Les Paul Double Cut w/p90's.

[Detman101]

Thank you.

Now I know EXACTLY what pedal I need to get.

This tone is what I have been searching for since I modded my Squier '51.

Dm

[72305ya]

sounds great man!

[nikike91]

what settings do you dial in? I have that same pedal but my sound is nowhere as killer as yours. Could be the amp tho'... help me out plz. btw YOU ROCK! :)

[TweedCadillac]

I think it's a combination of P90 pick-ups,Dr. Z Mini Z amp and the pedal!

[nikike91]

ok, thank you very much!

[BreakfastMoNky]

Dude i love this, sounds great. i love the pedal, it really gives you like a nice heavy vintage 80's like distortion, and i totally love your expression, i really do, it tells me that you feel the music, and that's just radical.I love it

[TweedCadillac]

AAH...what's going on here? Did I miss something?

[SGWizard]

thanks for the clip.  Sounds like a great pedal for metal.

[DCslayerX]

i like the lick.

sound quality= shitty though.

[BuddyRayKing]

You look like you dont enjoy playing at all

[TweedCadillac]

HeHeHe!!! You should see me having sex(UGLY!)....I actually enjoy playing, I never noticed how scary I looked while playing until I started making these little videos......Peace :0

[SEXUALGOD]

IS IT REALLY NECESSARY TO INSULT THE MAN !

DID ANY OF YOU STOP TO THINK THAT THIS MAN MAKE BE OFFENDED BY SUCH RACIAL LABELS AS "NIGGER".

Tweed cadillac, great playing and thanks for the demo.

I was thinking of purchasing one of these pedalsand after hearing this i definitely will.

Any good tips on a flanger pedal??

"SOMETIMES IT BETTER TO OPEN YOUR MIND BEFORE YOU OPEN YOUR MOUTH"

PEACE

[hirummy]

Thanks for the clip! I'm still deciding between the III and the Plus.

[adidascoke]

er, um.. i spelled forgot=forget :(

[TweedCadillac]

Should have read "You play WELL nigger".....:)

[adidascoke]

he forget the comma, too! :D

Judge MIlls...

P.S. it rocks once again...

[SGWizard]

This made me laugh out loud... classy come back.

[xMetalxMessiahx]

That comeback... actually just made my day... And thats on top of my band being invited onto tour.

Thank you.

Great playing by the way.

[squareballalert]

Actually, the correct way to say it would have been, "go to my page and check out my video of my Playstation 3 setup." You play guitar, he plays with toys.

[Relayer1968]

surprise; youre gay!

[SGWizard]

Wow! Your playing is horrible. No wonder you are angry... no brains, no talent, and obviously failing grammar/punctuation. By the way... come on over here to So. Florida and try that lingo!

[ArchitectofLaw]

haha are you talking to tweed? he's pretty good dude, whether you like metal or not.

[mackacacka]

racist !!

[joshlespaul1952]

You're such an idiot. Skin color shouldn't dictate how a person is viewed in society, one's actions should. But, it does, and it's really sad that we act this way. Maybe if we had less people like you, fenderz101, we would have less fighting and more peace.

[PhatOnion5150]

Fenderz101, your a racist asshole.

[slowhand007]

you need a big hug, lovely.

[KennysKoolKlub]

funkadelic!!

[rustycj7]

damn... im diggin' that tone man... im a crispy toned bluesman myself but Im loving that tone..lol

[leftygeezer]

Nice thick tone! I picked one up today. Your P-90's sound great with those harmonics. Thanks for the vid.
