Recording Notes

  • The guitar sound is characterized by a strong amp presence and a tight low end, likely achieved through careful mic placement and amp settings.
  • The Dual Rectifier's gain structure contributes significantly to the rhythm guitar's aggressive edge.

Recreation Tips

  • Start with a Les Paul style guitar for its humbucker pickups and thick tone.
  • Use a Mesa/Boogie Dual Rectifier amp model and dial in a high-gain sound, focusing on the midrange frequencies.
  • Experiment with different microphone placements to capture the amp's sweet spot.
  • Consider using a slight boost or overdrive pedal before the amp to tighten up the low end and add clarity.
