Oh jeez, that would be a disaster haha

BP

This turned out fantastic, I don’t know how you are going to pull that off live on stage :)

Rob Scallon

Yea!

Rob Scallon

Maaaaybe... but probably not :/ All of the vinyls are at the warehouse and there's still a lot in stock.If I'm every in Montana that might be a great Idea to sign another hundred. But currently I'm not sure when's the next time I'll be there.

Adriel Casellas

Thanks Rob! Any advice on what Bass strings you would use for this? I was thinking D'Addario nickel wound since they have always sounded really bright to me. I'm not sure if there are any that are really great for harmonics.

laurentian ghost

Are the books ordered like 2 days ago gonna be signed?

Henrik Gram

Any chance of a new set of signed vinyls being released? :)

Rob Scallon

Yea!

Lucas Sneyers

I just pledged am I gonna be on the book

Alex Hubbard

Thanks Rob I just pre ordered one!

Rob Scallon

Rob Scallon

Much thank Joey!~

Rob Scallon

hahah yea some of the reaches are a bit of a stretch. That tune can be tricky. Particularly the bridge often gives me trouble. But with a good amount of practice and a bright amp setting I'm sure you'll nail it. Good luck at the talent show! :)

Alex Hubbard

How do preorder a copy? I’d love to get your autograph!

Rob Scallon

That's so cool to hear Alexander thanks! I'm really glad that this song stuck around, it's an older one. I didn't even own an amp at the time it was written, had to go to friend's houses to play. I guess being so new to writing might have had be crucial to a song like this being made... idk anyway, glad you enjoy it! have a good one :)

Rob Scallon

Thank you so much! We so much appreciate the upfront budget the patreon page gives us to make these.

Rob Scallon

We send the book to the printer tomorrow, then it's made, shipped to me, I sign the preorders and get it to DFTBA. So there's a lot of hoops it goes through and at this point I don't want to give an exact date because I'm honestly not sure. But to be safe, I'm saying they should be shipping out in a month :) haha thanks for the patience

Alex Hubbard

When does the tab book come out?

Olivia De Koster

This is so beautifully done, as all of your videos are. Absolutely stunning keep on doing what you're doing!

Alexander Kiss

This is one of my all time time favorite songs from you, it was so cool to see this video. I just had to super subcribe instantly to you, even though its not much. Thanks for putting vids out, you are my favorite guitar player :).

Adriel Casellas

Rob you are a boss. I'm glad you were able to get it before the day finished out. By the way, I'll be performing a cover of A Collapse soon at a talent show. Thanks for writing that song with those absurdly ridiculous reaches!

Joey Denemy

Great video Rob! I love all the creative and original videos that you have come out with over the years, and this is no exception! Keep up the great work!

Rob Scallon

Thank you! it's been fun to show a bit more of the process in the videos.

Rob Scallon

So glad! Yea things were getting pretty tense there towards the end. Thankfully we got it, we maybe had 10-15 more takes we could do before we needed to leave.

Rob Scallon

Thanks and haha no not yet But printing the books doesn't take very much time so it won't be long :) Unlike when we did the vinyls which took months.

Rob Scallon

Thanks Matt! and maybe I've just heard the original so many times, but I do think the human error and nuance between the delay tracks makes for a more beautiful song.

Jeanine McCarthy

You usually make everything look so easy so I appreciate the last two videos giving us a glimpse of the hard work that goes into your music and videos. Stressful, but amazing!

Jan-Thomas

That was really awesome. This video made my day. :) Reminds me of myself doing countless takes of my own stuff. :) Kind of held my breath too when watching the vid.

Fernando Pérez Lozano

This was really impressive! That's some psychological warfare there haha. Is this point in time far enough into the future for the book to be out already?

Brian Kurokawa

This was a pretty ambitious video, and it turned out great. It was really cool to hear how much simpler Rain sounds without delay on it

Hunter Black

Awesome video man!! Extremely cool concept!

Matt Good

This was so intense. I felt like I had been holidng my breath for a minute when you finished the last take. Good going Rob (and the others!), really great video. Something really interesting about the 'acoustic' delay, it's almost like it's clearer but also the player nuance adds a nice ebb and flow to the piece, as each note isn't exactly the same velocity (as in, it might be quieter in the mix but the guitar is still being played differently), and it's not perfectly in time (although it was VERY well done).

Rob Scallon

Much thanks Matt!

Matt Kouba

I have watched you for a couple years now, the metal on wax was amazing due to the tech, this was amazing cuz you all have wacked out guitar brains, and thank you for that! Peace!

Rob Scallon

We were getting a bit aggravated with each other towards the ends. glad it didn't come to that haha

Rob Scallon

hahaha yea this is definitely the most expensive reverb + delay combo pedal I've ever seen

Samuel Brémont

Great one. Good God, 60 takes... That was either that, or it ended up with some guitar-related(-violence, I guess.

Rob Scallon

Thanks! also, awesome profile picture

Valentino

Awesome video rob I was so anxious on the last take but it sounded amazing! Probably one of the most complicated delay pedals I’ve seen! Good job!!

Alex Hubbard

Awesome!

Andrew

LOVED IT! Loved it! loved it! Such an awesome idea ! Worked out so well in the end

Daniel Latsch

good idea, better performance, best endurance!

Rob Scallon

thank you!

Rob Scallon

:) We were really feeling anxious while shooting towards the end. We only have another half hour or so we could be there, and we had already been there for hours. So glad we managed to get a usable take.
