What gear did Jake used on Retraced?

Post by timstar »

Sounds like a guitar (ESP?) straight into a Marshall, with probably just an OD-1.

Any ideas? The sound on "Creeping" is probably one of the best guitar sounds of all time.

Check the September '05 interview with Jake in the interviews section. Jake goes into detail about what gear he used on "Retraced." Guitars, Amps, Pedals, ect.ect.
Yes it was one of Dean's Mista' Fuzz pedals and a Soldano SLO 100 minus 2 tubes to cut the power down to 50 watts through a Marshall 1 * 12. Lots of guitars.

Hope this helps
