Tone Profile

The lead guitar tone is characterized by its fuzzy, saturated distortion with a raw and aggressive edge. It's a modern take on classic stoner rock.

Signal Chain

Recording Notes

• The guitar signal likely involves a combination of amp distortion and fuzz pedals to achieve its thick, saturated sound.
• Microphone placement on the cabinet is crucial to capturing the raw energy of the amp.
• Blending the Pro Co RAT and Big Muff Pi can create a unique, layered fuzz effect.
• Experimenting with the gain staging on both the amp and pedals will allow you to dial in the desired level of aggression.

Recreation Tips

• Set the Orange Rockerverb to a moderately overdriven tone.
• Engage the Pro Co RAT with the gain set relatively low to add some grit.
• Stack the Big Muff Pi after the RAT with the sustain and volume adjusted to taste for added fuzz and thickness.
• Position a Shure SM57 close to the speaker cone, slightly off-axis, to capture the amp's raw sound.
• Experiment with EQ to sculpt the tone and remove any unwanted frequencies.
• Start with a Les Paul or similar humbucker-equipped guitar.
