There was a different set up he ran , probably several. But the other was posted on a fan page . I think it was the same guy obcessed with the medallion "V's". He ran a Boss reverb also and at one point had Thomas wah I believe.
If someone snapped a pic of his rig during UFOs 70s era, probably would've just saw a Wah and two cables; one to a 50w Marshall and the other to his V lol
What I remember hearing from him at the Swing with Rush, and my brother James was there as well.
He was the second person I learned from starting out, about how a Wah can actually reshape your entire sound by just leaving it engaged at certain positions. The first was Jimmy Page on the Heartbreaker Solo ( and I learned that from an instructional video I had when I was 12 lol). But Schenker used his so much better and it had this amazing in your face mid range sound. Real throaty and lots of bite.
That was when they had Ron Nevison producing. Lots of articles about that.
Oh come on, why not?! If you're ever down near the Mississippi Crossroads, could come in handy, like the ol Lightning Boy Eugene Martone here lol
I'll pass. I stay planted far west of the Mighty Miss.
I know me and my bad luck, so I'll avoid trying to strike a deal in the middle of the night at the Crossroads. I'd go down there and make a deal to become a decent guitarist for a change, only to not only sign away my soul but probably sign away my property deed, vehicle titles and somehow give him my credit identity. In turn, id probably wind up getting guitar lessons from Lil Wayne
Funny you say wunderkind. I think that term was used in Pete Ways book.
There were lots of people using wah pedals. Not many just as a type of treble boost overdrive.
My playing will mostly remain the same, no Voodoo. Lol
That's exactly what I'm talking about: you can take a Gibson with PAFs into a 50w Marshall and only a Wah but I'll bet every dollar I ever made, few if any are gonna get that sound like he did! The dude has a style and sound all his own. Leslie West was another who followed a simple as hell plan and no one can match it
I would like to add a fuzz face after the wah please.
True! It's pretty evident here he's using some sorta fuzz, probably a fuzz face. A lot of the time live he just drove the amp to the max and depressed his Wah half way but here it's got a lot more gain it seems
I never heard of him using fuzz.
Definitely he is Mike.
