Atticus Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 If you could play someone's rig for an evening--whether in general or from a specific song, album, era--whose would it be? some that immediately jump to mind: --the edge: all those guitars, the dizzying system. I think I'd get lost --Neil Young: from the Weld era. I'd bring my earplugs --J Mascis: what? --Jeff Tweedy: just to see if I could make the same sounds, at least a few of them --Michael Timmons: the rhythm guitars --Robert Smith: swirling for awhile --Trey Anastasio: 3 minute upwards spriral? I doubt myself there --Hendrix at Monterey --Mark Sandman's bass rig --Jim James: as long as Jim was around to jam with --Willie Nelson: probably the top on my list Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I'm half deaf anyway. did he have leslies hooked up for that? Certainly something close. Great addition. As far as the cranked up marshalls, have you ever watched the video feed of monterey? That's crazy loud Quote Link to post Share on other sites

As far as the cranked up marshalls, have you ever watched the video feed of monterey? That's crazy loud Not sure if he was using leslies. I assumed it was his usual Fuzz face, univibe, wah, octavia set up. Have not heard the video feed of monterey but now I want to. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

lamradio Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 Wes Montgomery's Gibson ES175. The greatest Jazz guitar tone ever created. Would also have to pick the strings with my thumb for effect. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
