i reckon for the you really got me tone ,rather than damage an expensive vintage amp or try to find an old harmony on ebay ,get a hollow body and send it through an old fuzz pedal (your couce really) and then into an old style amp like an ac30 ,then decrease the bass and raise the treble.

i do this to if ireally like some ones sound ill spend hours on the interweb finding out what they used ,particulaly with amps and pedals (particulaly fuzz)

I took some pics at The Sonics show at Ray Davies Meltdown - sorry can't really make out the equipment but I thought you Sonics fans might like to check them out here http://retroman65.blogspot.com/2011/06/sonics-live-ray-davies-meltdown.html

I heard Link poked holes in his speakers with a pencil to get that airy distort...however the mood strikes, you just gotta listen.

PS stop using effects and just hear the room. Or destroy your equipment.

That sounds bloody horrible and its compressed all to hell. I don't understand that type of production with the vocals heavily effected and them slammed back into the mix so no-one can understand them. And you're right, the song sounds like it might be a good tune but its kind of hard to tell through that awful production.

OK, what's up with this band? They actually sound like they may be pretty good live... but this AM radio-style filter that they have going on over the music is just terrible. It doesn't even sound like it's tuned into the station! Like it's just a bit off. I don't get it.
I hope this isn't some kinda new trend...

Jeebus Crutch...I may need to do two episodes....these tracks are fucking great. That Jay Munly song is really haunting. I did go with the ..head kicked in...by Fleetwood Mac. Too good to pass up. This should be out by Sept 20th. I have one more podcast to put out before I can sharpen the edges on The Manly Art.

I would highly recommend myself for exactly this sound you're looking for. I have a studio made for rock and roll in Brooklyn.
August 24, 2011 10:23 AM CDT
We've been using the MicroKorg XL. It's really cheap and although it's probably not the exact same sound it's close enough. Downsides are: I think we had to download the Farfisa sound from somewhere on the Korg website and it doesn't have a lot of octaves.

Not really too horriblely incorrect, but its still slightly racist seeing that they laugh at him and its an accent. Love the song though.
This one is amazing. Strippers, believe it or not, hate this song if Djed in their club. Seems a little more produced that my LP version however.
August 23, 2011 1:13 PM CDT
my mates got an epiphne casino and its amazing its really good with distortion and the bigsby allows for great controlled feedback ,also the guy from the sonics used a epiphone riviera
and let us not for get the awsome big gibson hollow bodys of the 50's like chuck berrys and scotty mores one with p-90s
