Hoppo75 Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 Hiya folks. Can anyone point me in the right direction as to which effect James Johnston is using on the track? I'm not big on effects, but it sounds like an overdrive, possibly fuzz type thing. Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danbowskill Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 sounds like a sansamp to me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0175westwood29 Posted February 22, 2014 Share Posted February 22, 2014 it'll probs be an ashdown overdrive pedal combined with a valve head, although i think he also uses the rack sansamp. andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoppo75 Posted February 23, 2014 Author Share Posted February 23, 2014 Ah that's awesome, thank you :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gary mac Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 I played this with the last rock band I was with and always enjoyed it. Didn't use any effects but drove the preamp side of the amp quite hard, just clipping slightly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoppo75 Posted February 23, 2014 Author Share Posted February 23, 2014 Cheers mate. With the input gain up, I can get a bit of grit but not really enough. I think a pedal is the way to go. Thx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gary mac Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Yes guess so, if you want to replicate it as close to the original as poss. With a drummer and guitars going full pelt, for me it was close enough, Maybe I was just being a tight wad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
