Apparently these things aren't considered good amps, the MGDFX series, but the OD on this amp is to die for. I made a little demo with Electric Co. being my guineau pig or however you spell it. Check it out!
    I used my Gibson Explorer, my Tonelab with the Memory Man sim, and a little bit of TS-9, into the Marshall. The majority of the OD you hear is the amp though.

    Sounds pretty Edge-y! What delay setting did you use?
  2. It was the "mod delay" in the "modulation" section of the Tonelab which I believe is a Memory Man sim. So it really captures that Boy delay in my opinion!
    Thanks for the comments guys!
  3. Items used for "Get On You Boots"?

    From some stills that were emailed to me by someone on U2 Rec... Looks like:

    Death By Audio "SuperSonic Fuzz Gunn"
    Death By Audio "Harmonic Transformer"
    Electro-Harmonix POG

  4. From the stills that someone posted at U2 Rec Yahoo Group, it looks like Edge is using at least (2) Death By Audio pedals for "...Boots..." at the Grammys.

    DEATH BY AUDIO HARMONIC TRANSFORMER:
    Link below has information about the pedal AND a video sample of the pedal.
    Death By Audio Harmonic Transformer Fuzz


    DEATH BY AUDIO SUPERSONIC FUZZ GUN:
    Link below has information about the pedal AND a video sample of the pedal.
    Death By Audio Supersonic Fuzz Gun

    The picture I saw also showed a:
    ELECTRO-HARMONIX POG:
    Electro Harmonix POG Polyphonic Octave Generator

    Darn that The Edge! All of these pedals are pricey!
    DEATH BY AUDIO HARMONIC TRANSFORMER - $300.00
    DEATH BY AUDIO SUPERSONIC FUZZ GUN - $270.00
    ELECTRO-HARMONIX POG - $324.00

    TOTAL? $994.00 NOT including any tax or shipping. High prices but VERY cool sounds!
  5. yea the POG is on my list of pedals to get. I love the sound you can achieve from that thing. You can get a ricky sound through a les paul or a strat through that pedal, it's awesome. As for the other pedals, don't know really anything about them. I hadn't heard of them up until this album was being made. Sure have cool names though! Fuzzgun.
  6. Not sure you will get a 'true' Ric 12-string sound but if you have the POG and (1) guitar you can at mimic a 12-string to some extent. But yeah, the POG is a great device.

    A friend of mine has a Death By Audio Supersonic Fuzz Gun... sounds cool as heck! Save your pennys, it's time for new toys for the pedalboard!

    haha. I'm in the middle of saving up for a strat, a new ipod, repairs on my current strat, a couple video games, and sooooooooo on.

    The fuzzgun can wait

    What's the prob with your strat? What kind of repair does it need?

    Guess I'll have to pass on this fuzzgun thing, too. Wouldn't quite know what to use it for anyway. If I need a distortion box in addition to my tubeman I'll continue using my old Ibanez Fat Cat (Proco Rat Clone).

  10. Latest U2.com video?

    Adam Clayton playing the John Entwistle designed "Buzzard Bass". You will get a kick out of Larry's response!

    Adam Clayton & The Buzzard Bass:

    I hope that Adam brings this thing on tour... it makes the Auerswald from Popmart look almost normal.

    More information on the Buzzard...

  11. HAHAHA. "WOW! that's the batman guitar is it?" Man that was funny. Larry is an "ill man". What a cool response.

    As for my strat Alex (weird saying that, as if I'm talking to myself) there's nothing wrong with it. I did just get the pickups changed because the old ones were being screwy, but that was only to sell it. I'm selling it because I want to get an American, and the money from selling my mexi will go towards the cost.


  12. That was funny!! The song he was recording sounded good too. Not sure abou the bass though. I would have to hear it better.
