Humbucker Testing

Humbucker Testing? Why don't you use a humbucker equipped guitar on the bridge pickup like 90% of people would use it? Stop doing chug chug riffs on a single coil, neck pickup.

Same Guitar

By: Rick Marshall
Hi. I really enjoy the stompbox walkthroughs and think you do a very good job of demonstrating the various functions of each pedal. My one suggestion would be to use the same guitar when demoing the same type of pedal made by different manufacturers. I watched three videos to compare three different distortion pedals and each was used with a different guitar (Tele, Gretsch, and Ric), so while I did get to see/hear the different functions of each, it was difficult to make an accurate comparison. Otherwise, keep up the good work and keep testing those pedals. Thanks.
