A Good Fuzz Tone

Post by cubba »

This guy gets a sweet vintage tone.
According to the interwebs, he's using all modern-retro gear, nothing actually vintage.
I'd love to hear him using one of Dave's many different Tonebenders.

Yea this guy is really good -- I've been hearing quite a bit about him lately. May need to start investigating...

You should, he's from Austin, TX!

They play the above song just about everyday on the local Fordham Univ. station.
It's not terribly original music, but his vocals and gtr tone are just so sweet and right-on.

If I remember right he's using a fulltone Octa-fuzz.

Kind of reminds me of Robert Cray meets 60's fuzz for some reason. I am guessing the combination of the Casino with P90's and the Fender make for a nice fuzz tone.

Yup. And to think, I had that gtr, a cheap Korean reissue, and I couldn't totally dig it :doh: .
Excuse the TGP lingo, but tone is in the hands!

Yes, that's what he said here:

My go-to amp is a Fender Vibro-King. I like the way that the three speakers kind of break up at low volumes. As far as effects go, I’ve got a Fulltone Octafuzz, Ibanez Tube Screamer, Malekko Delay, Analogman Delay, and a Crybaby Wah. That’s about it. Nothing too crazy.
