Content

Trying out a new concept where we recreate different guitar effects, but entirely acoustically. Delay seemed like the best place to start!

Hope you enjoy and thanks for allowing bigger projects like this to have a budget.

Oh god I kept thinking something awful would happen on take 60 and screw it up. I felt anxious just watching, that was fantastic.

Tim Vinck

Wow, that's awesome! Sounds great! Can't wait to learn the song from the tab book! :)

:) We were really feeling anxious while shooting towards the end. We only have another half hour or so we could be there, and we had already been there for hours. So glad we managed to get a usable take.

Daniel Latsch

good idea, better performance, best endurance!

Andrew

LOVED IT! Loved it! loved it! Such an awesome idea ! Worked out so well in the end

Valentino

Awesome video rob I was so anxious on the last take but it sounded amazing! Probably one of the most complicated delay pedals I’ve seen! Good job!!

Samuel Brémont

Great one. Good God, 60 takes... That was either that, or it ended up with some guitar-related(-violence, I guess.

RobScallon
>>10368041

hahaha yea this is definitely the most expensive reverb + delay combo pedal I've ever seen

RobScallon
>>10369104

We were getting a bit aggravated with each other towards the ends. glad it didn't come to that haha

Matt Kouba

I have watched you for a couple years now, the metal on wax was amazing due to the tech, this was amazing cuz you all have wacked out guitar brains, and thank you for that! Peace!

Matt Good

This was so intense. I felt like I had been holidng my breath for a minute when you finished the last take. Good going Rob (and the others!), really great video. Something really interesting about the 'acoustic' delay, it's almost like it's clearer but also the player nuance adds a nice ebb and flow to the piece, as each note isn't exactly the same velocity (as in, it might be quieter in the mix but the guitar is still being played differently), and it's not perfectly in time (although it was VERY well done).

Hunter Black

Awesome video man!! Extremely cool concept!

Brian Kurokawa

This was a pretty ambitious video, and it turned out great. It was really cool to hear how much simpler Rain sounds without delay on it

Fernando Pérez Lozano

This was really impressive! That's some psychological warfare there haha. Is this point in time far enough into the future for the book to be out already?

Jan-Thomas

That was really awesome. This video made my day. :) Reminds me of myself doing countless takes of my own stuff. :) Kind of held my breath too when watching the vid.

Jeanine McCarthy

You usually make everything look so easy so I appreciate the last two videos giving us a glimpse of the hard work that goes into your music and videos. Stressful, but amazing!

RobScallon
>>10371553

Thanks Matt! and maybe I've just heard the original so many times, but I do think the human error and nuance between the delay tracks makes for a more beautiful song.

RobScallon
>>10378012

Thanks and haha no not yet But printing the books doesn't take very much time so it won't be long :) Unlike when we did the vinyls which took months.

RobScallon
>>10378448

So glad! Yea things were getting pretty tense there towards the end. Thankfully we got it, we maybe had 10-15 more takes we could do before we needed to leave.

Joey Denemy

Great video Rob! I love all the creative and original videos that you have come out with over the years, and this is no exception! Keep up the great work!

Adriel Casellas

Rob you are a boss. I'm glad you were able to get it before the day finished out. By the way, I'll be performing a cover of A Collapse soon at a talent show. Thanks for writing that song with those absurdly ridiculous reaches!

Alexander Kiss

This is one of my all time time favorite songs from you, it was so cool to see this video. I just had to super subcribe instantly to you, even though its not much. Thanks for putting vids out, you are my favorite guitar player :).

Olivia De Koster

This is so beautifully done, as all of your videos are. Absolutely stunning keep on doing what you're doing!

Alex Hubbard

When does the tab book come out?

RobScallon
>>10457547

We send the book to the printer tomorrow, then it's made, shipped to me, I sign the preorders and get it to DFTBA. So there's a lot of hoops it goes through and at this point I don't want to give an exact date because I'm honestly not sure. But to be safe, I'm saying they should be shipping out in a month :) haha thanks for the patience

RobScallon
>>10437575

Thank you so much! We so much appreciate the upfront budget the patreon page gives us to make these.

RobScallon
>>10425218

That's so cool to hear Alexander thanks! I'm really glad that this song stuck around, it's an older one. I didn't even own an amp at the time it was written, had to go to friend's houses to play. I guess being so new to writing might have had be crucial to a song like this being made... idk anyway, glad you enjoy it! have a good one :)

Alex Hubbard

How do preorder a copy? I’d love to get your autograph!

RobScallon
>>10421811

hahah yea some of the reaches are a bit of a stretch. That tune can be tricky. Particularly the bridge often gives me trouble. But with a good amount of practice and a bright amp setting I'm sure you'll nail it. Good luck at the talent show! :)

Lucas Sneyers

I just pledged am I gonna be on the book

Henrik Gram

Any chance of a new set of signed vinyls being released? :)

laurentian ghost

Are the books ordered like 2 days ago gonna be signed?

Adriel Casellas
>>10421811

Thanks Rob! Any advice on what Bass strings you would use for this? I was thinking D'Addario nickel wound since they have always sounded really bright to me. I'm not sure if there are any that are really great for harmonics.

RobScallon
>>10478760

Maaaaybe... but probably not :/ All of the vinyls are at the warehouse and there's still a lot in stock.If I'm every in Montana that might be a great Idea to sign another hundred. But currently I'm not sure when's the next time I'll be there.

BP

This turned out fantastic, I don’t know how you are going to pull that off live on stage :)
