Ever Heard a BOSS Katana Full Volume?

This is a demonstration of the boss Katana combo at full volume, it was fully improvised jam with my friends Dave and Ben from my band at the time Dorje... I honestly think these are some of the best live tones I’ve ever had, we were all incredibly impressed with how great it sounded 

Custom Shop Vs Vintage (Worth 90K)

Rob Chapman was blindfolded at Guitar Center and set a task to determine whether he could tell the difference between a Fender custom Shop and a genuine vintage original worth $90,000  

Could You Tell?

Could you tell if these electric guitar Pickups were active or passive? That was the task assigned to Chappers and the Captain at Andertons a few years ago – by the way, sorry to Rabea for attacking his hair. 

This Test Was Too Easy!

It was around this time 12 years ago that I started to discover I had fairly good listening skills I think from all the time I had spent in the Studio. In this video, Rabea Massaad tries to trick me by passing me one of my own Guitars, but of course I instantly recognised it 

Which Sound From Your Speaker Is Best?

When we are discussing Tone from an amplifier, it’s important to understand that it is a spectrum and not a single point, for example exactly where you sit will determine the kind of frequencies you are receiving from the speaker and the room. Another classic Chappers and the Captain video had Andertons where we tested a couple of different speakers inside the same amplifier. 

MIKU Destroys All

I’m not sure Who thought this was a good idea, but it was either Chappers or the Captain at Andertons that one classic time when they connected roughly 50 effects pedals together to see what it would sound like. Of course the Miku totally destroyed them all with its meow!! Ha ha 

Ancient Guitar Buying Wisdom 

15 years ago I had some advice for anyone looking to purchase a Guitar from a physical store. I still stand by this advice, it’s important to be brave and just play the guitar as naturally as possible so that you can really get a feel for whether it works for you after all you are spending your money. 

Can Chappers Play With 2MM of WHAT?

Chappers and the Captain at Anderton’s putting a whole bunch of Guitar pics through their paces every kind of conceivable material including 2 mm of felt which Robe discovered was particularly difficult to play with!

Does Hand Wired REALLY Make Any Difference? 

Does it really make any difference? Whether an amplifier is hand wired or PCB, in my opinion? It does not make any difference to the Sound but it does make a difference to how easy it is to repair the amplifier. For example the component choice is exactly the same it would make more difference if you altered the Tone settings by even 2%. 

The BRUTAL TRUTH After Playing 1,000 Amplifiers

After playing 1,000 guitar amplifiers, here’s the brutal truth about guitar tone. I discuss why speakers make the biggest difference, why tubes (valves) matter less than you might think, and why you need to play loud enough to hear what your amp can really do.

Big Life Lessons at Andertons

Huge life lessons with Chappers and the Captain at Anderton’s with special guest and friend Phil X from The Drills! I think Lee was trying to teach about speaker phasing, it may have got somehow slightly lost in translation 

Old School Bandit Tone 🤘🏽

I have no idea how I will ever explain to future generations. What bandit tone was or in particular who the subway bandit was…. The only thing I’ll say is that it launched a relationship between myself and Marshall amps, I ended up getting a Dominos gift card and well it was a very strange time ha ha

Sweeping The Modes🤘🏽🤘🏽

I’m just here to tell you it’s okay to dress up as a dragon and practice sweeping on your electric guitar. In fact, I encourage it… many years ago when I lived in Brighton I worked out that you could play each of the seven diatonic major modes using sweeping 

Power Chords… With a WEIRD twist

Chappers and the Captain at Andersons demonstrating some iron label Ibanez guitars many years ago. Robe came up with this interesting scratchy rhythm technique that resembled a DJ scratching on vinyl records 

Affordable Egnator Blew Our Minds

This affordable Egnator series was absolutely mind blowing, I had no idea they were Affordable and completely believed they were boutique amplifiers from America, turned out they were made in China and still incredible sounding for an unfathomably small price. Perfect matched with this PRS at Andertons

Awesome Guns N Roses Rig

Chappers and the Captain were experimenting with some tones to find the ultimate welcome to the jungle, Guns N’ Roses tone. I think we were quite successful especially with the delays and overdrive thanks to the Marshall AFD amplifier and this Gibson Les Paul 

Advanced Finger Tapping Exercise

This is a finger tapping exercise that I used to practice quite a lot about 15 years ago. It’s useful for moving through chords and adding some melodic Arppegiated phrases over progressions. I was using an ESP horizon plugged into a Bogner amplifier 

Discovering an Incredible Busker - Nelly

Although I have since lost contact with Nelly, he was a very inspiring person and I was very grateful to be able to help him in any way at all! The fact that Geoff Beck walked past him and said what the hell are you doing here? speaks volumes 

30 Years of Playing and I Still Can’t Explain This

Chappers and the Captain at Andertons demonstrating this incredible PRS SE Guitar which for some reason had unbelievable infinite sustain and in beautiful harmonic overtones especially coupled with this Victory Silverback amplifier 

How To Play a Pinch Harmonic

15 years ago, I decided to teach how to play a pick squeal/pinch harmonic - this is a technique that I always really enjoyed as a fan of Zakk Wylde, Joe Satriani and Steve Vai. This PRS custom 24 coupled with my orange Rockerverb 50 amplifier really were the perfect partners for this demonstration. 

One Of The Best Guitars I Ever Demonstrated

This incredible Ibanez Steve Viagem was definitely one of the best Electric Guitars I have ever demonstrated just an incredible piece and I guess now it’s vintage which is a weird thing to think about. I always wanted to own one but never quite had the budget. This is Jeff from World Guitars, I dearly miss him he was such a wonderful guy  and was definitely the beginning of my journey into Guitar demonstration.

Gibson Historic Les Paul

This Gibson historic Lees Paul was an absolute monster of an electric guitar, really had something special about it and I just couldn’t put it down. This is another classic Chappers and the Captain video from Andertons.

My New Guitar From The Himalayas Is Ridiculous!

My new guitar came all the way from Kathmandu, Nepal 🇳🇵 This is the Sahana Whochill, handmade by Sahana Guitars in the Himalayas. I’ve actually owned this guitar since last year, but somehow never got around to giving it the proper demonstration it deserves — so today we’re fixing that! This is my third Sahana guitar, and there’s something genuinely special about what these guys are building. Beautiful instruments, unusual designs and a story you simply don’t get from a mass-produced guitar. There’s also a particularly good reason to support Sahana at the moment. Following the recent disaster in Nepal, Sahana are donating a percentage of their profits to help those affected. That isn’t why I made this video or why I love their guitars, but I wanted to make sure you knew about the good work they’re doing. In this video I put the Sahana Whochill through its paces and let the guitar do the talking. Let me know what you think of it in the comments — and would you play a guitar handmade in the Himalayas? Huge love to the team at Sahana Guitars and everyone in Nepal. 🇳🇵❤️ #SahanaGuitars #Guitar #Nepal #electricguitar Here are some affiliate links to gear that I recommend and use: My strings: https://ift.tt/lZovpHf My Cables: https://ift.tt/xbG93Bs My Picks: https://ift.tt/fgXtwbz NUX MG50LI Floor Preamp: https://ift.tt/mJO06Qj Shure Nexadyne: https://ift.tt/EcnCqYG My practice amp (NUX Mighty Space) https://ift.tt/CYIV6Np INSTAGRAM ►► @Rob_Chappers FACEBOOK ►► https://ift.tt/enQ1GRh All of my music and backing tracks are here: https://ift.tt/vAPpzwa I own/or am endorsed/sponsored or have done paid for advertising by the following brands: ►► Snake oil fine instruments, Chapman Guitars, Andertons, Thomann, Guitar Center, Ernie Ball, Gravity, Victory, BadCat, Boss/Roland, Orange, Universal Audio ,Vans, Faith, Barefaced Audio, Mooer, Olimpus Music, NUX ➤ Tags #RobChapman #Chappers #RobChappers

This Exercise MASSIVELY BOOSTS Picking Speed

This is a picking exercise I used to practice for a long time especially stood up, I discovered that it’s circular approach massively boosted my overall picking speed on the electric guitar. I’m using a faded Gibson Flying v plugged into an orange rocker verb. This video was shot about 18 years ago 

What If The Beach Boys Were Shoegaze? #musora #covet #beachboys

In this episode of Covers On The Spot, Covet is challenged to reinterpret “Wouldn’t It Be Nice” on the spot. As the creative force behind one of modern music’s most expressive and genre-defying bands, Covet strips the song down to its emotional core and rebuilds it through texture, feel, and shoegazey atmosphere, transforming a harmonically complex, deceptively difficult pop masterpiece into something entirely new. In a surreal bit of cosmic symmetry, the original Pet Sounds album was recorded just down the hall in Studio 1, and, much like Brian Wilson’s dog Banana famously wandering the studio during those sessions, Yvette’s dog Bub just happened to be there that day too. Special thanks to Bub for his production assistance.
