btw, his tech said he runs it in half-power mode (triode)

:confused:

triode mode on most amps i've played is squishy/crappy sounding...
 
Doesn't he know DSLs suck. ESPECIALLY the new ones.
 
i rest my case regarding the talent/hands/heart/brain and guitar are 90% of it

I'm not sure if his is the made in UK or made in vietnam (like mine which is ok for metal, not much else afaict) but running in triode is strange. Even Mesa RK II got rid of the triode mode that was available in RK I.
 
Cool run down.

The settings on his Marshalls are pretty crazy.

I can't wait to see him with ZZTop this month.

He puts baby powder all over his hands, guitar neck and strings when playing. Damn.

Anyone else do that?



I run my Splawn at half power. I don't have anything squishy going on. :dunno:

He plays mostly leads and melodies, not too much heavy rhythm..? Maybe that works for him :)

Maybe true. But it's obvious there's nothing wrong with the equipment he uses either. He just knows how to use it.

I did it for a little while when I first heard he did it (early 90's I guess).....didn't seem to do much really so only did it for about 2 weeks
 
Beck sounds the same no matter what gear he uses.
He transcends.

No wonder his guitars are white :lol: :LOL:


But seriously, when I watched the vid I kept thinking damn, they should have cleaned up his guitars a bit first :aww:
