Sometimes on TPS they guys are making sex faces in relation to what they are feeling but there is no particularly discernible sonic difference.
Yup, thanks. I've just read the first few pages. Not got to the bit about "directly affecting the feel of the strings", but it's interesting, I shall persevere.
The relationship is between your touch on the instrument and the not just the sound but the immediacy, the decay, the attack, the compression and how fast it responds to your touch is what for me constitutes feel.
To the listener you might not hear any difference at all between me playing Amp A and Amp B but I might have to change the approach to how I attack the instrument to get Amp A responding in the way Amp B does.
No idea what all this clique bollocks you are on about is but how about we just discuss things without becoming children about stuff that really doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things. It's unbecoming.
Been uploading old tracks I recorded ages ago and hopefully some new noodles here.
It's like when some people say bell-like to describe position 2 and 4 on a Strat.
To me, I just think of it describing some of the posts on this forum...

Be careful or you'll get the same mod PMs that I got.
What am I saying, of course you won't

Who rattled your cage?
I'm not arguing with myself here. Other people are involved
I'm sitting watching TV with a cuppa and a bit of weed. I'm fine thanks.
Several reasons
1) The amp not set to get the best out of each pedal. There was only one amp setting.
2) The speaker used might not suit the eq of the pedal and vice versa
3) The output and pickups of the guitar used will affect each pedal differently
4) Too many variables.
Ah, that explains it, weed always had a detrimental effect on me as well.

This. Having sort of started this mess I've been trying to definite exactly what I meant by "feel", and this is it. It's all the extra information you have as the player about how the sound coming from the speaker correlates to your intention.
Don't talk politics and don't throw stones. Your royal highnesses.
@LastMantra gets banned.
Interesting.
I have no idea why you would not try to dial in the best sound you can get out of a piece of gear. Nobody gigs or records with all knobs set to 12 o'clock, so why is it such a persistent dogma in comparison videos?
I've noticed this before, but there's a warm, farty, midrangey guitar tone all over YouTube now, and it's not a tone you will ever hear on any record. Boosting that with half a dozen different mid-humped OD pedals makes it even worse
Also, he's not banned.
1. Andertons sell all those pedals, the video was made so people would watch it and buy one or more of them, nothing else - "best" is so utterly subjective it's all a bit silly.
2. If they spent time dialling in each pedal to sound their "best" it would take forever, and "best" would just be "make them more how Rabea likes" in any case, which isn't necessarily the "tone" anyone is looking for. Besides what Rabea wants will change depending if he's recording a nice ballad with his charming girlfriend Hannah, or playing with Stormzy, or whatever else he does.
Youtube videos are a lot of fun, and a concession to the fact many of us don't have a good local guitar shop any more. If we DID it wouldn't be the kind of box-shifting monster that stocks thirty different overdrive pedals either.
So Andertons will probably generate a few thousand orders for OD pedals on that video based on other stuff, like...
"Ooooh that will look good on my board"
"I love the lights on that"
"That Thorpy pedal is an OD and Boost... coool!"
It's clearly pretty unfair as well - I bet there are a lot more different tones you can get from the Thorpy than from a lot of the others, and it lasts one "round".
Appreciate you might need someone new to argue with now he's gone but not happening here. Sorry.

How would he know?
My head said brake, but my heart cried never.
You don't need youtube to give you a vague inaccurate idea of what a pedal sounds like.
