The Will To Live (1997) — "J'utilise un pédalier d'effets avec un chorus et une distorsion. C'est ce que j'utilise le plus. Je n'ai pas besoin de delay. La plupart du temps je joue sans utiliser le pédalier, sauf si j'ai besoin de puissance ou de feedback."

Burn To Shine (1999) — "J'utilise une pédale Ibanez tube screamer des années 70, une Ibanez delay, une Vox Wah, un stone Flanger et une vieille pédale de volume, c'est tout."

2002 — "J'applique quelques effets à ma Weissenborn, comme une Vox Wah, de la disto, Echoplexes."

Diamonds On The Inside (2003) — "J'utilise une vieille Ibanez TS808 Tube Screamer, une Vox Wah, une vieille pédale Ibanez Analog Delay, et un Electro-Harmonix Small Stone Phaser (www.ehx.com)."

Ibanez TS808 Tube Screamer
www.ibanez.co.jp

The legendary Ibanez TS-808 Tube Screamer has been produced in the very late 1970’s up until early 1982. The TS-9 Tube Screamers that appeared around 1983 were a very close copy of the TS-808 only in a redesigned case. Sound wise it was close but not as good as the original TS-808 | plus d'infos sur retrosound.com.au

VOX Wah Pedal
www.voxamps.co.uk

"Designed to emulate the sound of a muted trumpet the Vox Wah-Wah pedal was one of Vox’s most innovative and successful products. The Wah-Wah made its first appearance in 1967."

The wah-wah pedal — accidentally developed in 1966 while a Vox engineer was working on a new circuit for the Super Beatle amplifiers — is essentially a tone control activated by the player's foot. Rock the pedal forward, and it produces a high-end, treble-heavy tone. Rock the pedal backward and the unit produces a tone that has a deeper, muted sound. Though Vox was the first company to market such a device, its infinite tonal possibilities and electronic simplicity spawned armies of imitators. Players such as Jimi Hendrix, Jeff Beck and Jimmy Page initially popularized the effect during the late sixties, but it went on to become an indispensable part of nearly every self-respecting guitar player's setup. Jimi's fabulous wah-wah technique can be heard on such classic cuts as "Voodoo Child (Slight Return)," "Straight Ahead" and "Machine Gun." | plus d'infos sur www.emplive.com
