Weiß zufällig hier einer was fürn Effektboard Tom Delonge benutzt(e) ?
Keins. Zumindest nicht mehr als einen Ampswitch - wer des googelns' mächtig ist findet folgendes innerhalb weniger Sekunden
GC: Blink has a pretty straightforward sound. Do you use any pedals or effects?
Tom DelongeTom: Sound from the amplifier! I think it's a sin to plug into a pedal or any effects before plugging into an amp.
GC: So your amps must be pretty important to your sound then. What kind of rig do you play through?
Tom: I love my guitar rig! I love the way it sounds and I use it for one main reason: I think it adds the two elements of guitar sound you need to make a big fat sound. I use a Mesa Boogie Triple Rectifier and a Marshall JCM900. Mesa Boogies can have all that bottom end and saturation of distortion but it doesn't have that string note tone that a Marshall has. And Marshall has a lot of string note tone but none of that overdriven bottom end. So when you mix the two tones I think it sounds incredible. What I do is put the JCM900 on its clean channel and turn the gain up to 10 and I also do the same with the dirty channel on the Mesa. So you kind of have two totally different unique sounds blended in together. I run that out of 3, Mesa Boogie 4x12's.
GC: What is the coolest recent addition to your setup?
Tom: Probably my Triple Rectifier that's wrapped in snakeskin with the cool earth tone grill on it. It doesn't sound any different but it looks cool, and being the guitarist everything has to look good (laugh), and that's all that matters to me. Lights, shiny lights! The more money I spend, the more lights I want!
GC: What's next on your wish list?
Tom: You know, I want to add a third amp. I'm thinking of maybe adding like a Dual Professional, maybe a Fender Bassman, you know, just to get a beefier sound. Everyone I talk to says I don't need it. But we used one on the last record along with three other amps and I really like the way my guitar tone sounds on the record, so that's an option. Or maybe some more speakers to make it louder, maybe one of those Mesa Boogie Red Barons, those 300 watt amplifiers. That would be rad! I'd blow people's heads off!
