i love that this was for dunlop tv, and there were NO dunlop products in his gear.

I see Animatos becoming more expensive now haha and probably the black muffs.

Awesome find.

that's cool that he's got an electrix filter factory--i wish they would have showed this when the company was still around--they could have used the publicity!

I love that his setup is so incredibly complicated (Axe FX, three amps, midi switchers, etc...) and yet his sound is so relatively simple. Why people will complicate a rig this much for something like that I will never know. I also have to agree that not changing your own damn effects is pretty silly. But, to each their own.

I like this.

Don't give me a heart attack, dude. (refers to emboldened, underlined bit)

+1 to the not switching your own effects in and out sentiment.

Delay?? On the intro to Hysteria?? *facepalm*

Favorite part of the video: "Jesus Christ!! How many Big Muffs has this guy got!?"

Holy shh... That's one complicated setup. I'll use a couple pedals to sound kind of, sort of, like it, when I'm covering their songs, and I guess I'm blessed to be content with that. A large pedalboard and a 15" combo amp is already a lot to carry around, imo and ime.

But who knows, maybe if I ever got super-famous and super-rich, I might use that much stuff. One thing we know, Chris is one hell of a gear nerd.

And Mr. Bellamy's rig...

Wow, yeah- he's easily the first guy to ever have his tech switch his FX. I wonder if guitarists will ever pick up on this in the future?

Mingus Addict · #17 04-23-2010, 02:51 PM

Is it funny to anyone else that there's no Deep Impact shown in this video?

FreaqyFrequency · #18 04-23-2010, 02:54 PM

It's in the shelf beneath the one where they stop to gaze upon the glory of the golden Japanese Rat.

if that´s true then he also doesn´t play his bass for real, playback or his tech plays it.

Not true. I'm pretty sure that I read somewhere that Slash's tech switched his pedals in Velvet Revolver, and if I'm remembering wrong, then it was someone else, but he is in no way the first.
