rob schnapf "stay what you are" gear and setup question

squarewave · 10th August 2008

I know Rob Schnapf occasionally posts on here, so maybe he will see this. I was wondering what kind of amps/mics/guitars/miking setups were used on this album. These guitar tones are simply some of the best I've heard.

I am voicing an amp and I'm using the amazing tones on this album as a reference point. Sounds like maybe a Les Paul through a vintage Orange or maybe a JMP through a basketweave cab with a little AC30 mixed in, but I'm not positive.

Figuring out exactly what was used would save me a lot of tweaking time.

i think saves the day are into bad-cat amps!? pretty sure that record would have heaps of different amps on it though, some pretty varied sounds on there.
