I was in my local guitar store the other day, and figured i'd try out the infamous Big Muff that is so often conected with the pumpkins sound. So i stuck it in...
was it the NYC one or the sovtek? It's really an aquiered sound. And billy used a '84 marshall jcm800 with kt-88 power tubes that don't distort. I have a...
It really depends on what you're comparing the Big Muff too. I mean, compared to a Fuzz Face or Boss OD-2, it really sounds like the Pumpkins.<br><br>I own a...
That's because you need something to nice break up the big muff. the kt-88 tubes are hard to distort, so when you crank them they crete a mild overdive which...
Yeah - when I overdrive my amp - really sounds different. Billy has so much in his hands - Marshall stack - recording studio - more fuzz pedals to use with his...
that and the insane production values he is known for. I think he listed Boston as an ifluence once and they have ungodly production. Tom Sholtz was a studio...
Well i don't actually want to sound just like Billy or anything. I'm just looking to find my own, and since i love the pumpkins so much, i figure taking the ...
Get rid of that Valvestate. I had the exact same set up and realized that crap amp (sorry but that's what I think of it) is the problem. I just recently traded...
Well can't find anything else i want for this price. I mean, i paid $400 less for this fucker since it was used, and i don't know what the hell else i could go...
I've got an Electro-Harmonix Big Muff NYC Reissue for sale. This is less than a year old, and I bought it new. It hasn't left my carpeted bedroom floor, cause...
I own a Gibson Les Paul that cost me almost $2000. I also own a Yamaha Strat with humbuckers and an Ibanez. Both the Yamaha and Ibanez cost about 1/3 the price...
I have a les paul custom...I also own an ibanez, fender telecaster, and other guitars...the lp blows them all away, it all depends what type of sound your ...
I have tested several Les pauls in the music stores and they always sound boomy and muddy. They are the most over rated guitars in history. They are ok for...
It's a heavy sound. Most are made of heavy maple, and the neck through body construction lends to the thick dull sound. It works great for amazing sustain, but...
Well I think it's total bullshit that a Les Paul cost about $1000 to $2000 and you have to change your pickups,which cost somemore money. With a guitar costing...
I blew my money cuz I believed all the hype about Les Pauls. They are the one of the best looking guitars and had to have one for it's looks. I wasn't very ...
yup...I made the same mistakes when I started, but the more experience you get with playing, the more you get with your ears, and the more picky you get about...
Here's the deal...if I had money, I would've bought a Les Paul...but I only had a couple hundred bucks, and I bought a Telecaster, cause the boys in Radiohead...
Obviously the pickups contribute to a big part of the sound of the guitar and one of the main reasons that many Les Pauls sound dull and lifeless is shitty ...
Yeah but that's pretty shitty that you have to spend another couple hundred dollars on pickups on a guitar that already cost $1000. For a guitar that cost that...
i added a new album, "rare and unique effects" to show off these are finds: a japanese mu-tronIII copy (only 500 made!!!!), a mu-tron phasor protoyype, and the...
