Whatever hes doing at the intro sounds awesome and I wanna figure out how to do it.
Please dont let this thread get derailed about how much people don't like this kind of music or something cause I can see that happening.

its an organ with distortion. or it sounds just like one.
Best if luck...

But the right EQing and a fairly gated fuzz will get you close.

| | | | it is played by keys (like already stated above) Live he will either play keys, bass, or guitar. Usually just one of those per song. His tone live was great. he had 2 ashdown 8x10 setups. one for keys, one for bass. |
