1. Hi guys,

    I´m new around here, and I didn´t really know where to put my question, so sorry if this wasn´t the appropriate place.
    Anyway, does anyone know how does The Edge get his crunch tones in the Boy album? I´m not sure if it´s a boosted AC30 (saturated preamp) tone, or an overdrive pedal (SD-1) into a clean AC30. Any ideas?

    Thanks!
  2. Hello there, welcome to the site!

    There is a dedicated thread to this kind of stuff - U2 & Guitar Gear: Q & A.

    Also, you may want to introduce yourself to the forums in the 'Welcome to U2start, ya'll' part of the forum.

  3. Thanks Kieran, I will

    I did look at this thread, but people are mostly talking about little (and interesting nonetheless) details of more recent live performance... I´m, on the other hand, looking for an old studio recording information. I did look, but couldn´t find that in that thread :/

    I think his suggestion was to ask in that thread.

  6. Another Brazilian guy! Great

    As Kieran told you, you might present yourself to the forum on the Welcome To U2start Y'all subforum, open your own topic and let the people on the site know and cheer you. And anstratdubh already answered -perfectly- your question on the Guitar Thread (by the way, thanks for moving this over there, Jeff ), so I will close this one.
