  • Shnobel Tone Clean Boost Review
    by Charles Saufley on 16 Novembre 2023 at 17:35

    Like much of the world, the modern guitar sphere often teeters toward brain-numbing maximalism—maximum presets, maximum amp models in a single floor unit, maximum nitpicking over minute differences in aftermarket pickups. On some days it’s enough to make the Shnobel Tone Clean Boost look like the most beautiful piece of guitar gear in the world. As it turns out, beauty is more than enclosure deep in this very practical exercise in design economy.For starters, the Shnobel Tone Clean Boost is carefully put together. The small through-hole circuit board is immaculately arranged and soldered, and I/O jacks as well as the footswitch are mounted to the enclosure independent from the circuit board. There is no battery option, which may disappoint some minimalists thrilled by the notion of hooking up the fewest possible wires. That aside, there is little to fault in this super-streamlined design.On the sonic side, there’s much to love, too. It’s an exceptionally quiet pedal, which is a good thing given how little it colors your tone. Mildly boosted sounds are about as near to clean as you can get, and if you don’t mind the absence of color, you should round our tone score up to the highest mark. What the Clean Boost does add is body and mass—particularly when you have to work at low amp volumes with single-coil pickups. That extra body also makes thin fuzzes sound mammoth, opening up cool tone-contrast possibilities. And at its higher reaches, the Clean Boost will drive an amp to thick, growling, delicious heights.

Using a special film coating on the wound strings and dispersion coating on the plain steels, XS guitar strings are made to be played, not changed.Thanks to their incredible lifespan and smooth feel, XS strings have become been played and praised by pros across the spectrum, from Mike Dawes to Alex Skolnick. But perhaps most impressively, they’ve become the “preferred” string of Taylor Guitars, which means they’re now strung on every Taylor that leaves the factory.The XS price tag is slightly elevated, but it makes a lot of sense when you realize how many string changes you’re about to avoid. It also helps that D’Addario runs some great deals throughout the year. In fact, you might want to keep an eye on XS prices during the holiday season…we hear they could be dropping very soon.D'Addario XS Guitar StringsXS strings are the longest lasting guitar strings D’Addario has ever made (which means they’re also likely the longest lasting strings in the known universe).

  • From Heavy Metal to Bebop: How Oz Noy Found His Signature Sound
    by Zach Broyles on 15 Novembre 2023 at 18:46

    New York-based jazz master Oz Noy joins Rhett for a discussion on how to get the most out of your gear and the importance of playing live.This episode of Dipped In Tone features Rhett flying solo with veteran jazz guitarist Oz Noy. Born in Israel, Noy started gigging at age 13, and 37 years later, he’s still going strong as a celebrated live musician—including a 17-year run at New York City club The Bitter End.Noy explains that he grew up with a foot in both jazz and rock music worlds. The former taught him intricate playing, while the latter schooled him on tone and sound. “I was playing heavy metal on one hand,” he says. “On the other, I had a hollowbody guitar and I was playing bebop.” When he moved to New York, he was “shellshocked” by how advanced and impressive the jazz music scene was. Noy played in a trio, so to fill out his sonic palette, he began leaning on effects as “almost another instrument.” Not all of it has been intentional—he found a signature sound thanks to a happy accident with a tremolo pedal while gigging in Japan.Get 10% off from StewMac when you visit stewmac.com/dippedintoneWhile he still loves old, loud Marshalls, Noy says Two-Rock amplifiers have radically changed his approach, and he even uses Fender combos on the road. But aside from running his amps into a Universal Audio OX, Noy explains why he’s still not impressed with digital amp solutions.Noy’s most important advice for players? “You gotta go out of your house and play live,” he says, explaining why it doesn’t cut it to just home-record clips for Instagram or YouTube. And while he sings the praises of his favorite modern jazz players, he tells Rhett why he thinks that rock and blues guitar-playing haven’t evolved much since the ’70s: “There’s nobody that took it to the next level or invented something new.”

  • Shnobel Tone Clean Boost Review
    by Charles Saufley on 16 Novembre 2023 at 17:35

    Like much of the world, the modern guitar sphere often teeters toward brain-numbing maximalism—maximum presets, maximum amp models in a single floor unit, maximum nitpicking over minute differences in aftermarket pickups. On some days it’s enough to make the Shnobel Tone Clean Boost look like the most beautiful piece of guitar gear in the world. As it turns out, beauty is more than enclosure deep in this very practical exercise in design economy.For starters, the Shnobel Tone Clean Boost is carefully put together. The small through-hole circuit board is immaculately arranged and soldered, and I/O jacks as well as the footswitch are mounted to the enclosure independent from the circuit board. There is no battery option, which may disappoint some minimalists thrilled by the notion of hooking up the fewest possible wires. That aside, there is little to fault in this super-streamlined design.On the sonic side, there’s much to love, too. It’s an exceptionally quiet pedal, which is a good thing given how little it colors your tone. Mildly boosted sounds are about as near to clean as you can get, and if you don’t mind the absence of color, you should round our tone score up to the highest mark. What the Clean Boost does add is body and mass—particularly when you have to work at low amp volumes with single-coil pickups. That extra body also makes thin fuzzes sound mammoth, opening up cool tone-contrast possibilities. And at its higher reaches, the Clean Boost will drive an amp to thick, growling, delicious heights.

Using Alnico III magnets, the fuller and warmer tones offer the right amount of fatness for the modern player while still retaining the chimey high end of the classics. The neck has warmer bubbliness, the middle pup harnesses a fatter midrange, and the bridge cuts through the tastebuds with stinging clarity unlike any other.Unlike any other potentiometers on the market, all AxLabs pots were specifically designed for electric guitars.

  • From Heavy Metal to Bebop: How Oz Noy Found His Signature Sound
    by Zach Broyles on 15 Novembre 2023 at 18:46

    New York-based jazz master Oz Noy joins Rhett for a discussion on how to get the most out of your gear and the importance of playing live.This episode of Dipped In Tone features Rhett flying solo with veteran jazz guitarist Oz Noy. Born in Israel, Noy started gigging at age 13, and 37 years later, he’s still going strong as a celebrated live musician—including a 17-year run at New York City club The Bitter End.Noy explains that he grew up with a foot in both jazz and rock music worlds. The former taught him intricate playing, while the latter schooled him on tone and sound. “I was playing heavy metal on one hand,” he says. “On the other, I had a hollowbody guitar and I was playing bebop.” When he moved to New York, he was “shellshocked” by how advanced and impressive the jazz music scene was. Noy played in a trio, so to fill out his sonic palette, he began leaning on effects as “almost another instrument.” Not all of it has been intentional—he found a signature sound thanks to a happy accident with a tremolo pedal while gigging in Japan.Get 10% off from StewMac when you visit stewmac.com/dippedintoneWhile he still loves old, loud Marshalls, Noy says Two-Rock amplifiers have radically changed his approach, and he even uses Fender combos on the road. But aside from running his amps into a Universal Audio OX, Noy explains why he’s still not impressed with digital amp solutions.Noy’s most important advice for players? “You gotta go out of your house and play live,” he says, explaining why it doesn’t cut it to just home-record clips for Instagram or YouTube. And while he sings the praises of his favorite modern jazz players, he tells Rhett why he thinks that rock and blues guitar-playing haven’t evolved much since the ’70s: “There’s nobody that took it to the next level or invented something new.”
