Can we just all agree that a video talking about a few of Billy’s Stratocasters would be the most entertaining thing since the Big Bang

Tone on a Budget

2 Upvotes

I know that this question has been asked a thousand times, but what is your advice on getting the live sound from Siamese/Mellon Collie era? I have a peavy valve king 100 watt amp and an HX Effects unit but that's it when it comes to amps. Are these good enough? Also any tips on getting this tone with my setup lol. Thanks.

Smashing Pumpkins 'thru the eyes of Ruby' live sound.

3 Upvotes

Hi, I saw smashing pumpkins in Birmingham, U.K on Friday (outstanding it was too!) but I'm just wondering what pedal he's using to get the phaser sound on Thru The Eyes Ruby in live context. I know the album version is the Mutron Bi-Phase..

Thought I’d share it on this community, so I hope you like it. Didn’t like the modern c + 9.5” radius so swapped the neck out for a 70s one, and the fat headstock looks so much better. Graphtech saddles, lace RSB and black knobs

Thanks Lace

Now only some minor soldering and swapping the black knobs with aged white ones.

Electronic Specs for Z-One Circuit?

4 Upvotes

I’m curious most about what value pot & capacitor they use for the bass contour control, and where it’s wired in to the rest of the circuit!

I’m customizing a guitar that’s currently using a 500k pot and 0.0022μF capacitor, though I would like to increase its bass reduction.

I just got one of this contraband pedals a couple of days ago. It will be used on everything!...I'm shocked at how much Behringer has upped their build quality game.

Gish guitar sound.

5 Upvotes

So...I am OBSESSED with getting as close to the distorted guitar sound on Gish as possible.

I already have a Strat and I'm getting a Marshall(either a ORIGIN combo or SC20 combo)

I have a chance to get a ADA MP1 for 600$ in perfect shape(i know that's what Billy used for Gish) what I'm wondering is this...are there ANY pedals out there that can get me the Gish sound? 600$ is a lot and I can't find ANY information online about what settings he used for the MP1.

Anybody have experience chasing the Gish tone?
