JimmyPenz Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Looking to match this tone with my Pod and Fender Stratocaster. Pickups used Dimarzios: Neck - Injector (DP422) Middle (Area 67) Bridge (Chopper (DP184) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stumblinman Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 I don't know about his tone, but the look on his face makes me want to punch him lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
medbad5150 Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 ha ha a video of a bloke not playing blues or drop tune one finger chords gets the usual dismissive crap. Actually mate, I play some Chic in our set. Best bet is to first search Custometone, funk, Nile Rodgers, soul, clean etc etc. Or use the Fender amps on the HD500. Strange thing though, my main Chic patch is an acoustic patch that came with the pedal. Try and see what you think, add a bit of phaser, chorus, compression, using neck and middle strat pickup and you shouldn't be too far away. Tweak to hell but at least you have a poatch to start tweaking with. Good luck bro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
medbad5150 Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 Yeah your pickups higher output than strat pickups, you will probably need to lower gain too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stumblinman Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 I'm not dismissive. I just don't play strat so I can't help with the tone. But after watching the video, I was grinding my teeth trying to ignore that goofyass look on his face. So that's what I commented on. I can appreciate the tone for what it is, but sadly cannot help. I think my comments were almost as dismissive as you talking about blues and drop tuners.

billlorentzen Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 You can get a similar tone with deluxe, twin or /13. I would also add some direct guitar - one of Nile Rogers tricks - for that crystal clear cut. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
