With cream he used the sg painted by the fool.He used also the es some times.He said that he only used his wah and no more effects.Just guitar-wah-amp.I dont know if it's true,that's what he said.We are covering it with my band and i am trying to achieve the sound but i haven't yet.If i will i'll tell you,and if you will, tell me.

I think Clapton played an ES335, strat & probably a les paul in the cream era. Also played marshall stacks...possibly blues breakers aswell. He would of used your average fuzzes like Fuzz Faces, Tone Benders aswell as Vox Wahs etc. I'd like to know how that fuzz was acheived on Wanna Be Dog by The Stooges. One of the best fuzz tones I've heard.

For the first Stooges album,maybe Ashton was using a FuzzFace (The germanium Blue one,I guess) anyway check this for details: http://www.vintageguitar.com/features/artists/details.asp?AID=2108 During the last tours before RIP his gears rounded about Reverend Guitars,Reverend overdrive,Ibanez Ts9,Cry Baby Dunlop,Fulltone OCD and Marshall amps (JCM 800 and JMP-4 X 121" cabinets) http://www.reverendguitars.com/reverend/guitars/set_neck_series/ron_asheton.html http://www.bostonguitar.com/Merchant2/graphics/00000001/reverend-drivetrainu.JPG

Example: Cream At the royal Albert hall (page 182):




Black Fender Strat with noiseless pickups and a maple neck (another black Strat with Lace Sensor pickups).

Jim Dunlop strap locks.

Fender '57 tweed Twin amp, in a stack, with a spare on top (only used on “Sunshine Of Your Love”) and a Leslie speaker.

The Leslie had a separate preamp, used to balance out tone and volumes with the amp when used together.

He also had a Dunlop wah-wah pedal in line.

His wireless system was the Samson Synth 6 system, with packs powered by 2 AA batteries. This ran to the input of his foot-switching unit through a Zaola cable from the cannon out on the Samson.

His guitar straps were by Ernie Ball, as were his picks and his strings (''Slinkys'' 10 13 17 26 36 46 gauges).

Guitar stands by Tama.

The site is french-spoken...anyway,the link connect you to the first page. If you scroll it, you will see a long list of artists,lots of ones you mentioned. Beside each one you will see one or more numbers;this is the page's number. So you take the one you're interested in and fill it in the window search (high on the right). It will connect on the forum's page where the topic is about. Cheers- Giannis KRI said:

Thanls man.But i don't understand anything from this site.I don't speak italian.Anyway thanks for the try.

Settings about amps?
I think you only can trust your ears..well, any amp or guit has its own
peculiar sounds but take a look of wich models they used if you want to get closer.
And what you hear from the record is a studio result not easy to reproduce in live.
The band you mentioned don't have just one sound
(Stooges change at every album,Clash had one for every song)

Here is a link to an interesting site about gears:

I loved so much "Live Through This", second album, I think... when I was a teenager I had true veneration to her, now I don't like her anymore

True, she was pretty good in Larry Flint. So, well, I kind of respect her. Ah, and: I really LOVE the Young Marble Giants, but I have to admit, Hole's version of "Credit in the straight world" is even better than the original. G. Wood said: I liked her in The People vs. Larry Flint.

I'm pretty sure both their records are still in print. Such an amazing band. I have modern kicks tattoed on me arm. One of my favorites

These kids were my favorite band for the longest time. Everything connected with them is bound to be good: The Riffs, Buzzcocks, The Briefs, Marvelous Darlings, Undertones, etc. I've been snoopin' around eBay for one of their records, I'm hoping I can grab it up. And the Nice Boys are killer. More surf I find though, but Terry owns my heart.

I only know "It's a shame about Ray", but I really like it. Reminds me of a pretty cool summer back then. What I find most amusing about Dando is that even when he tries to be hard and aggressive, he still sounds soft and sweet. Funny false self estimation... But still, a good record for summer.

The Ultra Twist!

Don't know them,anyway Beasteaks is a pretty funny name... Mike Humsgreen said:

It's not so much about the grammar but how you pull it off. If the band sings like they know how to use English then it works. But some bands don't have a clue and the lyrics ruin an otherwise decent tune. I find that a lot in Germany. The Torpedo Monkeys seem to pull it off but the Beatsteaks don't.

I only like one of their songs... and it's "Sunday Morning Call".

Definitely Maybe has a few great tunes, like "Rock n Roll Star" and "Live Forever", but overall, I'd say that What's the Story Morning Glory was better overall. Regardless, I haven't listened to either of these albums in years. OCEAN PALACE said:

i agree with you there,,, dont like standing on shoulder of giants either, more than anything its very boring.... some on their early b sides i think are actually better than the album stuff,, "listen up" one of my favourites,,, definitly maybe is still the best they done i reckon

No matter how sad my music is, I have a policy of not chucking out anything. It brings me face to face with the turd that I use to be. And that turd use to like Oasis a lot. They have some pretty sound music but Standing on the Shoulders of Giants is in my collection and must be down there with the worst of my records. Alex said:

I've gotten rid of a lot of the crap I used to listen to growing up (trust me, it's some pretty embarassing crap that I wonder how I ever liked), but Oasis is one of those bands I could never bring myself to get rid of their albums. OCEAN PALACE said it right... definitely a 60's British invasion vibe. Maybe that's why it's catchy. Obviously some of the stuff isn't the best, but it's pretty decent music. Saw them live in 2005 and they closed with a nice cover of "My Generation", so they definitely know their stuff. And of course, you've gotta love the Brothers Gallagher and their antics. That's what makes for a great band!

I have favourite songs, not albums but here's some I'm never tired of listening to
Chelsea
Eater - The Album
999
Dead Boys- Young, loud and snotty
The Nipple Erectors - King of the Bop

RAMONES, duh.
