That was terrific. If you watch Live Under Blackpool Lights I would love to know how what he does for the first 15 minutes of that show playing Dead Leaves, When I hear My Name, and Jack the Ripper. Probably the same. Do you think it's the fact that it's live in a huge room that accounts for the difference? Is it something more?
@mrfelastic be as smooth or heavy as you want. It can be bluesy classic rock or heavy hard rock borderline metal. Two two separate tubes and gain knobs make tone blending amazing. The clean channels are fantastic too. Message me if you have any questions about anything haha
@mrfelastic the super sonic has some of the largest head room I've ever seen from a single speaker amp. When I play I usually can't put it above nothing for practicing by myself and finding tones. The clean channel is really sensitive to how hard you play the the distortion burn channels really smooth. I hook the amp up to a spare 2x12 cab I have and give a nicer stereo spread. It can get amazingly loud. I've never been able to put it past half way even at gigs in gyms and halls. The burn can b
2 questions: How much head room does that Super Sonic have? and how driven is the "burn" channel? Sounded good man! (I know you weren't playing through it, just curious.
@120crazychris true, but only one and its only for the reverb, most of his tone comes from two 1485 silvertone amps. Silvertone amps are known for having terrible reverb units, so thats why he has the fender.
@crownvvc4 you're right, it's pathetic that I was having fun and just fooling around with seeing if i could create the same sound without his pedals. I'm sorry if i offended you.
Actually the sound comes from a combo of his pedal setup as explained before and the way he picks. He uses the heel of his hands to mute the strings as he picks, almost like he is slapping the guitar like one would a bass. you can see it really well in the VH1 performance of Ball and Biscuit.
There is no tremelo pedal, or compressor. He uses an MXR micro amp to get more gain out of his tube Silvertone half stacks or Fender Twin Reverbs. When you add the Amercian Big Muff to this already pretty saturated tone you get a very sensative attack on the strings, causing it to sound like its cutting out. Also if youve ever heard jack play live theres no way he uses a gate. when that muff is on and he isnt playing its feeding back with crazy sounds!
@Audiojunkie138 he doesnt use a gate at all. you're right. But the cutting sound is very very different from the sound he gets in that particular song at the one part. Usually he's doing the cutting sound but he might be using studio works or a tremelo pedal is what im saying. Be cause you cant mute the strings and get rid of ALL the feedback at once like he does there.
@brianswathey actually it's his compressor, his gain pedal (it's a Dunlop I think), a Digitech Whammy and his Big Muff (american). What the compressor does is crushing the sound so quiet sounds sound loud and loud sounds sound louder, and the whammy does the staccatto sound. Then he runs all of that through a Fender Twin Reverb and (at least) a Silvertone amp. Not that cheap, tho :(
Hey man I'm just wondering, there's this Jack White staccato-type effect I'm looking for, he uses it in the solo for Black Math, approximately 2:20 - 2:22 of the song, it kind of sounds like he's using a killswitch. He also uses it in Girl You Have No Faith In Medicine in the little pentatonic breaks. Would you happen to know what he's doing and how I can achieve that, it sounds so badass! Cheers, nice vid.
@brianswathey Yeah man that's a killswitch. There are loads of tutorials on the internet on how to make one yourself, they're not too difficult. Or, if your guitar has individual volume controls for each pickup, just turn the pickup you aren't using to 0 and flick the pickup selecter switch between the turned down pickup and the one you're using.
@brianswathey it's actually a tremolo pedal he used on that song. Because its so exactly cut off. It's the voodoo tremolo pedal I believe. his up picking technique is when you hear him doing short notes usually, but that definite cut off is a tremolo pedal from his pedal board.
@agreenershadeofblue he never used tremolo in the white stripes. he uses a mute box built by analog man, along with his own guitar playing technique. not hating, its cool that you could find that tone without creating an exact replica of his setup, was just clearing that up.
@coldwarmike on his pedal board he had a tremelo pedal, wether or not he used it can be debated. But in that song the stopping is so exact its cant be the up picking. thats hat i think. his stutter technique is more open than the stops in that. and thanks. I recently got a big muff pedal so i may show the sound with that.
Haha yeah thanks. I was just fooling around with internal trims and all on the swollen pickle. And I know he uses the big muff. I have a digitech whammy I use. He uses a micro amp ontop of his big muff. I find the swollen pickle a little more full. Like the old big muffs that he uses unlike the new cheaper ones. By the way, sorry for bad punctuation and all. I'm adding this from my phone. Haha
nice! thanks for the vid. i was playing with the boss oc3 the other day, and i think that with the drive option engaged, it can be used to get close to his tones.
@jepizarrop Yeah man but to me with the internal trims and all it becomes way more versitle. But for s and g's i got a big muff finally with tone wicker also, and its epic.
