Higgie Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 (edited) Aeroplane and Coffee Shop for me....Awesome tunes. Although BSSM is my favourite album overall, those are my 2 favourite tracks. Sir Psycho Sexy does it for me too though....Fuzz and a DOD FX25 gets me closer to that sound than anything else I've heard!

I used to have a BassBalls and it did do this kind of sound good, but I just found it lost a bit of low end. Still very interested to hear it!

So I have them both in a loop with a Boss LS-2. This allows me 1) to adjust the final volume, and 2) to blend the effected signal with the dry signal. To my ears the result is very good. I was not really intending to replicate the SPS sound, but I thought it sounded close, so I then fiddled with it until I got the sound I wanted.

Look forward to hearing it. I'm not much of a guitar player, but I thought I'd try and do a fully fledged cover of the track, seeing as I had the Bass and Drums done already: [url="http://soundcloud.com/higgie142/sir-psycho-sexy-guitar-wip"]Sir Psycho Sexy WIP[/url] Comments and criticisms welcomed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
