“It’s all bar chords” I died inside a little 🥲

So I finally plugged V3 of this pedal into my bass rig and I really like it a lot for bass. V3 has both a mix/blend knob for the dry & distorted signals, and a bass knob. With those two little knobs plus the larger Gain, Treble, and level controls on the overdrive, you can retain good attack while going from super light overdrive up to fairly heavy overdrive and retaining a good bit of the low end. On the compressor side, you have a really nice, good compressor but also a noise gate! The V3 Route 66 is very good on my bass rig. (A GK RB1001 + Carvin BRX 4x10). I like it best to add just sort of light to medium overdrive, noise gate on, bass turned up a bit, and basically emulating a tube driven bass amp breaking up just a bit. UPDATE: I bought an MXR M89 Bass Overdrive and it's a lot better than the Route 66. The MXR definitely is passing more low end through than the R66. With that MXR I could then tell that also engaging and disengaging the compressor with the MXR M89 on, the low end is dropping out with the compressor too. I have a keeley (guitar) compressor as well and it was worse for filtering the low end out. The Route 66 is not as bad as most guitar pedals and the bass boost knob helps, but that MXR is a big upgrade in terms of feeling the low end. It's a clear keeper. I plugged in a bunch of other guitar pedals, overdrives, distortions, fuzz etc and really didn’t like most of them for bass as they all kill the low end pretty badly. They have their uses but I think the 66 will become my main bass compressor and overdrive. Add a tuner and maybe a bass fuzz, possibly chorus, and maybe a DI, and I don’t think I would want anything else. (For bass…) My REVISED opinion is, if you have a Route 66 on the shelf and want to try it with your bass rig, crank up the bass knob and go for it. But if you are serious about bass I'd definitely check out an MXR M89 if you like the route 66. Similar kinds of sounds, but more low end you can FEEL. I would actually consider putting two M89's on my board and setting them differently (light & heavy gain).

I've a '76 Mustang Sunburst that did the same thing. I'm the second owner and got it back in '92. I really don't think it was ever varnished by the previous owner as it wasn't monkeyed with much. Car polish did do the trick to fix the gummy, sticky issues.

Крутое тремоло! Молодец

Yes, it was very informative. Thank you!

Naaaa😂

I tried your way originally but it didn't have that "flows like water" feel the record has. I came up with this, utilizing a double drop D tuning and a capo. ua-cam.com/video/Mk7IDPae0J4/v-deo.htmlsi=o3o1587T06FRSrqY It might be what Fred did, while Paul stayed in regular tuning. There is definitely more than one acoustic guitar at work on that track

Nailed the tone sir.

Ok thanks I am confused.. this is rated at 30 watts… How does it compare to even low end power speakers start at 1000 watts??? They are about $200 and simple mixer $100… 30 watts vs 1000 watts!? Something does not make sense Let’s forget about battery for now..!!

Thanks alot

Thanks for the tip about how to install the locking ring. I ran into the same problem you did; it wouldn't click into place no matter how hard I tried. Your tip about using needle nose pliers is the way to go.

I play guitar and I’m about to teach this to my brother who plays bass thanks for the video

Nice

Still helpful 9 years later thank you brotha

Just saw them at the When We Were Young festival in Vegas and he played this so I had to learn it. Thanks!

Excellent tuto..

Good video. Yess .. it is 'helpful' .. Just a bit tricky for me :D. Thanks for sharing.

Thank you !

Thanks. That was helpful

Perfect Very good Muito obrigado🙏 Saudações Brasileiras Grande abraço..

Does anybody know the strumming pattern?

Truetone is the same company. It's not a corporate buyout. They just changed their name. That's the original version (V1) of the Route 66. There was a v2 that had the weird triangle shape and an elevated back edge, and then the current V3 which is rectangular and more pedalboard friendly in it's design. I was just thinking about plugging my V3 into my bass rig, and searched for a demo here. Their webpage says it’s good for guitar, bass or whatever other instrument you want to plug into it.

What year is that Guild!? She looks pretty and sounds great!

What’s the biggest amp I can get to blow my neighbours walls down with The Clash’s Bankrobber?

~ greetings from germany ~

Very well done. It works good. My only question is on the 2, 5, 7, 4 part at the end of the 2nd line. You say that you're playing the D, G, and B strings but you don't say what you play on the G and B strings. You look like you're arching your index so I'm guessing the G is open. I can't tell if you're having over the B string or pressing down on it.

Great. Arthritic fingers require alternative fingerings..

Hey man, my wife uses groove boxes mc707 101 mocrofreak vt4 for her vocals she runs through her 707. I usually play acoustic through PA or electric through JC40. We have been looking at the column stick PAs. But do this can handle your bass, and doesnt fart out. Do you think 2 of these would be a good PA choice for a duo like us? We dont get too heavy like boom bap 808 floor rattle stuff, but we do need nice clear low end, for her synths and groove boxes, guitar electric or acoustic and 2 vocals. Does it have the low end to have some clear punch in a bar or coffee shop stuff like that? They could make great speakers at home for the TV as well I bet.

Bravo. Je m'abonne avec plaisir à votre chaîne. ☮️🎶🙏

Me: man, I could have really used this video like 10 years ago... Video: uploaded 11 years ago Me: 😅 Thanks for the video! I don't play like I used to, and it's always great to pick up the parts of songs I always left out.

What happens if naptha gets on the pickguard? Are there any parts of a guitar that should not come into contact with naptha?

This was exactly the kind of video I was looking for, so thank you very much posting it.

Could be a hard road for me...excellent pace..cheers

damn I could do it in like 15 mins! I cant believe its that simple! thanks

Hi mate I am looking for an acoustic guitar amp for busking. Is this unit good enough for busking and does it have quality sound for both vocal and guitar?

Great Demo on settings for my fender jazz

I just ordered one. Hopefully, it hasn't been discontinued. Have you used it with a crossover and a sub woofer?

Nice!!

There's over 100 hours of guitar work on this song. It's real difficult to pinpoint what's being played on one guitar vs multiple

I play it differently and have a different strum pattern

Thank you for making this even ten years later this video is still getting used 😁
