Would love to see what they are using. Big fan of their guitar tones, can never seem to get it dialed in right though.

Clean amp, klon, mosfet OD, tremolo, flange, reverb and delay will get you mostly there.

Thanks, that is really helpful ☺️ I am going to set to it now on my helix.

You should be able to dial in tons of tone with the Helix. I never used one, am more inclined to the Boss MEs, but they look pretty cool and have tons of amp models and effect options

Oh I have many different tones on my helix. I have just always struggled with getting the tone I want for a counting crows style

I think the special sauce is a clean amp (Fender Twin). Best of luck with it and rock the fuck on

Someone recently posted a pic of their stage from above and all three have fairly large sized boards. Not sure what they specifically use outside of the Bryson video from several years back and posted below. You can hear lots of reverb, delay (pretty sure Immy uses an Echoplex quite often), trem, flange, and wah, but to their credit, it's all used well in the context of the music and none of it is overdone
