  1. M13 is a great unit. There are a number of Edge fans and tribute band Edge's that use them. About the only tone you can't get 100% is Mysterious Ways - but that seems to be the one tone you can only nail using the original unit that The Edge used - the Korg A3.

    In fact, one of the guys that was a beta tester for the M13 was a tribute Edge so be sure that he worked with Line 6 tons on the delays and other Edge tones.

  2. Update in the new gold sparkle Warwick bass that Adam began using at the Brandenburg Gate show.

    Per a rep at Warwick:

    "It is actually a custom Streamer $$, with maple fb wood, black block inlays, maple neck, swamp ash body, custom wired Seymour Duncan pickups, full passive electronics, but with a custom wiring.

    And a nice special GoldFlake finish :-)"

    There you have it. And perhaps this will be the Adam Clayton signature bass? Time will tell.
  3. Sweet, just scored a Fender Blues Jr for 350 bucks on ebay

    Really? wow Everything except Mysterious Ways is pretty damn good!


  6. The black tolex. I just saw the tolex one on there, bid on it, and got it for a good price. I didn't feel like looking around, I just needed a small loud amp quickly for future band practises (my band is FINALLY starting to practise )


  7. Not everything, everything but certainly a most things. Including shimmer sounds.

    ive been mucking around with my Magnificent chorus effect, if u wanna give it a shot heres wat i got going on.

    PREAMP: set on combo, gain=55, bass=45, middle=55, treble= 83, level = 45

    COMP/FX and OD/DS arent being used

    MODULATION: have it set on delay, rate/key = 39 (aka 390ms), depth/harmony= 50, E.level/resonance = 80

    DELAY: have it set on modulation, time= 29 (aka 290ms), feedback = 43, e.level = 80

    the double modulated delay is what gives it that distinct sound, i hope u have fun trying it.
    let me know wat u think.
  11. Thanks for all Adam's gear info, Jeff. You rock a lot and your interest is so great, THANKS


  12. Vox AC15CC. You could later upgrade the speaker to a Celestion Blue and it'd sound even cooler.

    Fender Blue Jr. is another good choice.
