The gear used to create the sounds in this video is listed below. You're hearing a Bare Knuckle Pickups loaded Chellee Model One guitar and a Chellee Compy Compressor, into the clean channel of the KSR Artemis. A Strymon Timeline is providing delay effects in the amp's loop. A Celestion Redback loaded KSR 1x12 HW cab completes the signal chain. I'm also using Herco Gold 50 nylon picks, to replicate The Edge's unique tone and attack. #U2 #Strymon #TheEdge

Contact me for lessons. First lesson FREE! https://chrispetersguitar.com/lessons-clinics https://chrispetersguitar.com​ My music is available for download at: https://chrispetersguitar.bandcamp.com​ In this video, I demo the incredible master volume on the KSR Artemis II-100. I'm using my Chellee Model One guitar (mahogany body/ maple neck/ rosewood board) equipped with Bare Knuckle Pickups Holy Diver humbuckers; I used the bridge pickup with guitar controls full open. I'm playing through the Lead 2 voicing, with the fat and bright switches engaged, on the RED gain mode (all 5 gain stages). You're hearing camera audio (only) from a fairly inexpensive Panasonic video camera, so you'll be able to hear AC noise, and the acoustic sound of the guitar. This is done intentionally so you'll get an idea of how low the master volume setting is, and how amazing the amp sounds (even through a lousy camera mic). Other gear used in the video: KSR 4x12 cab with Celestion G12-65 Heritage speakers Mogami Overdrive instrument and speaker cables D'Addario NYXL 0942 strings Blue Chip Jazz 50 picks Radial SGI and Mogami Neglex Quad XLR cables used to plug into the amp (due to the long distance). #KsrAmplification​ #ChelleeGuitars​ #MasterVolume​

It's a 25.5" scale guitar with an ash body and a maple neck. It's loaded with Bare Knuckle '63 Veneer Board single coils, and a Mississippi Queen P90 in the bridge. It's strung with D'Addario NYXL 1254 strings. Mogami Overdrive speaker and instrument cables are used. I'm playing through a KSR Artemis (into a KSR 4X12 cab loaded with Celestion G12-65 speakers) using the crunch channel with the gain mode, fat, voice, and bright switches on. I'm running the master volume at super low levels. You're hearing only camera audio. #ChelleeGuitars​ #KsrAmplification​ #SlideGuitar​

I show the performance, and recount my memories of the show. I performed for the likes of Joe Satriani, Steve Lukather, Nuno Bettencourt, Greg Howe, Elliot Easton, and Mike Varney, who would also judge me. I will always be thankful to Michael Molenda, Jude Gold, and the GP Magazine staff for being so kind to me, and giving me this opportunity. #GuitarHero​ #Satriani​ #GuitarPlayerMagazine​

First lesson FREE! https://chrispetersguitar.com/lessons-clinics https://chrispetersguitar.com​ My music is available for download at: https://chrispetersguitar.bandcamp.com​ In this video I compare the different clipping modes of the Chellee Odie Modified and the Odie Classic and explore the voicing options. Here are the time stamps for the playing if you want to skip around: Low gain examples 01:18​ Mid gain examples 03:31​ High gain examples 07:16​ No compression, EQ or anything else was used. The KSR Artemis was played into a KSR 412 cab loaded with Celestion Heritage G12-65 speakers. It was mic'd with a Shure SM57 and a KSM313 blended 50/50, and then sent into Logic Pro X via an Apogee Symphony. Mogami instrument and speaker cables were used for the guitars, whereas Mogami Neglex Quad mic cables were used for the mics. The ash bodied (cherry burst) Chellee Echo guitar has a Bare Knuckle Pickups Irish Tour pickup in the neck. The mahogany bodied Chellee Model I guitar has a Bare Knuckle Pickups Holy Diver pickup in the bridge. D'Addario NYXL 09-42 strings and Blue Chip Picks Jazz 50 were used. The pedals are being run at 18V for an even clearer high end, with more headroom and less compression. Please note that the cosmetic appearance of the pedals has changed slightly (while the tone remains unchanged), and the Odie is now called the Odie Modified. The pedals in the demo are my personal pedals from about 6 years ago. #Chelleeguitars​ #Odie​ #Overdrive​
