Acoustic 450/470 with 8x10 and/or Guitar Cabinets.
Rickenbacker with bypassed pots... for optimal (crazy-ass) output.
Oubviously, as loud as you possibly can. And lots of booze... to make you sound sketchy.

*Geddy Lee had killer, gritty tone from Counterparts (1993) through Test For Echo (1996), but after that it got kind of gross. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
