Helloooooooooooo, i'm in the middle of changing the pedals/amps i use and listening to stuff i like to see what options i have sound wise.
Does anyone have any idea how Gibson gets that bass sound on 13 monsters? I know he uses a boss super overdrive and some kind of zoom multi distortion but i really don't see how those pedals can make that sound!
I thought maybe it has something to do with him pushing the speakers harder than they're designed to be pushed so as to create that 'chainsaw' kind of growl.
Any ideas???
Cheers! |

Man- I love these guys. I had no idea that his amp setup was so simple...it sounds like his signal gain is about 10000000x
and i thought he used like 10 cabs at once? i saw his live setup on a DVD of them...it seemed way bigger |

Early on, you can see a clip of an SWR Goliath... I think Thunderscreech is right. http://youtube.com/watch?v=2emHj3qTX9k
