umcoo Posted April 29, 2010 Posted April 29, 2010 Hi folks...anyone have the May 03 Bass Player with Mich Quinn from Supergrass on it? Looking to see his setup...mostly if he uses any effects. I know he has an Ibanez Blazer and Hiwatt amps, but he gets some lovely dirty tones and wanted to know of any secret weapons! Cheers folks Quote
WalMan Posted April 29, 2010 Posted April 29, 2010 Almost certainly, just not quite sure where in my tip. I'll see what I can do if I find it Quote
umcoo Posted April 29, 2010 Author Posted April 29, 2010 You're a gentleman. I seem to have every issue except this one! Quote
Musicman20 Posted April 30, 2010 Posted April 30, 2010 Im sure he used an Ibanez Precision....do they exist?! Quote
Wil Posted April 30, 2010 Posted April 30, 2010 (edited) [quote]Im sure he used an Ibanez Precision....do they exist?![/quote] It was either a Blazer or Roadstar/Roadster I think. Love the headstock on these, reminds me of the Fender Starcaster guitar from the late 70s. Ooof: Sexy. Edited April 30, 2010 by Wil Quote
umcoo Posted April 30, 2010 Author Posted April 30, 2010 I've seen him with both the Ibanez Blazer and various Fender P's. Quote

umcoo Posted May 3, 2010 Author Posted May 3, 2010 Ahh! With you now! That'd be great. Even just a scan of the article would suffice. Mucho appreciado amigo. Quote
Geddys nose Posted May 3, 2010 Posted May 3, 2010 They are on a fairwell Tour at the moment hope its not really the end for them. Great Band. Quote
umcoo Posted May 3, 2010 Author Posted May 3, 2010 Yeah, I've never seen them live, but loved them for years. Not sure if I'll get chance to see them on this last tour. Hopefully they'll reform in 15 years like all the other bands are doing, and I'll catch them then! Quote
kets Posted May 4, 2010 Posted May 4, 2010 I have a bassist magazine from 1997 which has an interview with Mick Quinn. He says he still uses his Ibanez Roadstar and a Fender Precision. He has an Ampeg head and SWR cabs, although he says he uses an old Carlsbro amp in the studio Effects wise, he says he uses a distortion pedal on a few songs, but most of his sound comes from hamering the F**k out of the strings! Hope this helps, I can send you the magazine if you like? Kets Quote

umcoo Posted May 4, 2010 Author Posted May 4, 2010 pook - Yeah it's the American Bass Player. No worries brother. It'll be hiding somewhere on the internet. kets - Much appreciated brother! 1997 issue must be just after their 2nd album was released and there's some great tones on that. Is he specific about a 'distortion pedal'? Thanks for your help buddy. Quote
