  • What overdrive pedal are you using? Sweet tone

  • It was the Hermida Zendrive 2....It has a tube in it, very big full sounder !

  • Sweet Tone. I love 335's too. Great demo but without your amp, amp settings, pedals, signal-chain etc, the demo is meaningless because we don't have a perspective on what the amp and pedals are contributing to the overall sound. Could you fill in the gap for us?

    Thanks and once again, sweet tone man.

  • Thanks...Ok, from what I remember, All tone controls on bothe 335's were all the way up, volume comstrols up all the way except when I was in the middle postion (bothe pickups) I rolled the neck pickup volume back about 2 numbers. The chain was overdrive (Zendrive 2 i think) and TC Nova delay into a vintage vibroverb. On the amp the Volume was on about 2.5, treble 6, bass 4, reverb 2.5. Basically a moderate overdrive into a pretty clean sounding Fender with a little delay to fatten it up.....

  • Man, that's the last thing I was hoping to hear :)

    Vibroverbs are so expensive. I've seen some of your gig videos and are you using this same amp for gigs as well?

  • The live gig vids have me playing out of my Black face Twin Reverb, also with a 15" speaker. It's big and bad ! It was modded by Riveria in the 70's....

  • hey starman great playing, what years are your 335's? and necks slim taper, name? casino? i want to buy one, but want your style 335 the black looks nice any suggestions thanks a fan from boston mass

  • WCR darkburst takes the cake, although the WB sound great too, very close

  • Do you recall the settings on your Zendrive 2? I'm guessing you probably don't, but here's for trying...
