Members jhamnett Posted April 17, 2009 Members Share Posted April 17, 2009 Jack? Dan? Peter? I'm going to bed. Will see results in the morning. FWIW, I'm voting Jack. His demos are great for seeing how different parameters change the pedal's functionality in real time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Amplifier Worship Posted April 17, 2009 Members Share Posted April 17, 2009 Miller is a dick. Stroud is a rad cat. Mother{censored}er is chilled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Blakemore Effects Posted April 17, 2009 Members Share Posted April 17, 2009 I voted for Peter, because the dude is an amazing player, has great tone, and really seems to know what he's talking about. The only Jack Conte demo I've seen was awesome and unique though, and I bought the Voice Box within 5 minutes of seeing his demo, so hmm... Long story short, I voted for Peter, but Jack was a close second (and if he keeps making videos, he may move up to #1 for me). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long story short, I voted for Peter, but Jack was a close second (and if he keeps making videos, he may move up to #1 for me). He has three demos right now, a second one for the voice box, one for the holiest grail, and one for the DEM. I'm banking more on his future of awesome demos. The holiest grail was his first I think, so it's not as high quality as the other three. Peter is a great player and he does good demos, for sure, but I love the way Jack integrates changing setting in real time, gives you a great way to compare settings on the fly. Peter is definitely a close second. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter is definitely a close second. Oh, sweet. Thanks for the heads-up. I'll definitely need to check out the dude's other demos. The first Voice Box demo completely sold me on the pedal. Also, if you have a chance, check out his band Pomplamoose. There is some interesting stuff in there from what I've heard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Jenesis Posted April 17, 2009 Members Share Posted April 17, 2009 Miller sucks extremely, Stroud is the man. Current poll results would also indicate this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members ehx Posted April 17, 2009 Members Share Posted April 17, 2009 You left out Dave Weiner (he plays for Steve Vai, and does fairly straight demos) and Michael Leonhart (he made several short films) -- (there are a few others, but they're not as often watched) -- and don't be so tough on Dan! (fwiw, he plays with They Might Be Giants.) Here are some links to their demos in our YouTube channel:Dan MillerPeter StroudDave WeinerMichael LeonhartJack Conte (btw, I expect to post a neat demo by someone new sometime next week.) For that matter, who here has what it takes to make that list? Poll that! :poke: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members hooya Posted April 17, 2009 Members Share Posted April 17, 2009 I actually usually find the ProGuitarShop demos much more informative and comprehensive as to how the more complicated pedals (like Flanger Hoax and Stereo Polyphase) work. So can I have another option for the poll? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poll that! :poke: Sorry for the exclusions... but I did put other!! Yeah, I've seen Weiner and Leonhart's demos. Leonhart's are definitely on the more creative side, haha. I figured I'd pick the three most recent/popular guys for the poll. Plus, the effects forum loves Peter as it is, so the results don't shock me at all. Also, I think the lack of love for Dan is because of his guitar face. Good player. Terrible guitar face. Oh, no PGS option since they don't do official EHX demos!!

Members Mr. Pickles Posted April 17, 2009 Members Share Posted April 17, 2009 I like Jack's vids because they place the effects in context of a song.Dan makes weird faces when he plays that make me cringe; BUT I think he's a talented dude and very versatile. I'm almost positive that he does the music for The Happy Monster Band children's show (I have a three year old...). Peter's demos are very good and he seems to be genuine about how much he admires certain effects in the line, as opposed to being an EHX schill.
