I ironically came across seeing an auction for one of these on eBay very recently (should see if the pics are still around), Morley wah and some other Boss or DOD pedal...

just did some googlin' and i guess it's a Fender DGL-1 (as opposed to DGC-1 per gtr player '89) - definitely what he was using for the 'daydream' era loopin'.

btw, from those video stills of titanium expose i think that is one of the many knock-off Jax fuzz/wahs, my friend i think has the same exact fuzz/wah and i forget the make, though the story on these just like many knock off japanese branded guitars from the 60's/70's is that there is usually one maker that sells to distributers that in turn put their own brands on them... so the same looking guitar/pedal can have several branded names.

yeh, the actual footpedal part of it looked slightly different but the text along the right side seemed to be an exact match (FW-3). please let me know if you find one that looks closer to the model in the pic.
IS that the ludwig phase II in the 'titanium' vid btw?

if they'd properly recorded it, i would.
(listen! i love those songs, and have come to accept that most of them sound great on the record, there's just a few huge mistakes that 12 years later i still can not ignore when i compare them to superior live versions from before the album came out, let alone the subsequent perfect tour versions!)

is that right? I would've thought the phase shifter would be after the distortion pedals...
Any chance we could get a basic run down of how he's using the pedals on ATL?
|
sure: "turn phaser on. repeat for every song."
i agree, he has his chain more or less backwards from how i would expect - i have a newer blue box so maybe the old ones were better, but i can NOT use it unless i have another fuzzbox in front of it, it saps the signal beyond belief...
(i was just being a prick up there, but did you have any specific questions about the pedal usage on ATL?)

Easily my favorite SY guitar.
Now, here would be something interesting: how about some info on their non-guitar gear (the zither used on Inhuman, the Groovebox on Campfire, and didn't they have a synth at one point?)?
|
yup, thanks for identifying the model for me! like i said, my friend has a Quest bass or i'd never have even known the brand... odd guitar to have as your favorite, i might say!
well there's some info on those auxiliary instruments at the bottom of each member's amp/fx page, if you haven't seen that, but i don't have much info beyond what's listed there... i do wonder at what point he stopped using the zither for 'inhuman', though...
