  • I've been spending a lot of time focusing on aluminum guitars lately to try to dial in the rest of the tone for Nirvana's In Utero. I started experimenting and ordered aluminum from amazon and pieced together a Frankenstein build. It sounds awesome! This was a fun one.

    Not sure if you understand the positive impact you already have on the community but you’re going places bro! So happy to see you care for the people that watch your content and it’s greatly appreciated 🤙 Also a question I have is if there’s any update on the engine pedal and if you plan on releasing music in the future. Your intros are next level. Thanks

    Your content is amazing, man. Can't wait to see more of your videos, Nirvana related or not :)

    that 3d cad model of a veleno is super impressive, i cant wait to see what you do with it!
    I recently built an 'accurate' kurt jaguar, and ive found with how close the bridge is, and how kurt seemed to have set it up with high action, and the bridge tanked to the body, it gets a ringy/rattly sound alike to the aluminium, (not quite as bright), but it really really sounds like the pennyroyal 'clean' guitar.
    I think the secret is when you use a vintage tremolo unit thats been hardtailed from the actual mechanism, along with that setup, which i think is combined with the veleno at some points throughout the album, its another really distinct sound, try it out on your jag!

And I’m a lover of p90’s, I have guitars with them just in the neck and also guitars with them in both bridge and neck and dang, they have a sound that I love.

Especially that amazing Veleno headstock. If you do, I will buy one immediately. I've owned 3 EGC, and a Travis Bean, but have always wanted a Veleno. IMO they are the coolest of the aluminum guitars.

    There's also one tone I'm chasing for years now, it's the Dale session tone on January 1988. Endino recalls kurt using a Randall SS amp but kurt didn't have the commander by this time. And I don't think it was the Rg100es he played live by the end of 88. It's really sounding different, maybe a peavey or a sunn beta lead combo.
    Would be nice if you'll investigate on this mystery.
    Thanks man! Really love your videos.

    Hey, Aaron! Sorry for off-topic question, but did you ever consider that some amount of Nevermind's distortion could come from the Mesa Boogie's lead channel instead of DS-1? Butch Vig said, that he didn't like the sound of pedals and preferred amp distortion. We know that he allowed Kurt to bring in DS-1 anyway, but I wonder how much of it was actually used on the album.
    I thought about that because I was playing through someone else's amp profile capture of a Mesa Studio 22's lead channel, and through the impulse response of a Marshall cab with Greenbacks it sounds suspiciously close to Nevermind's distorted tones.

    • @-jank-willson
      @-jank-willson Год назад +1

      mesa boogie used op-amps instead of tubes or transisters, so that's why it has a distorted tone rather than an overdrive or fuzzy tone, when pushed to it's limit.

    @werdna3891 Год назад

    Just a heads up. I've played the Veleno at Electrical without knowing its rarity or its history until after I was done playing it. It is the best guitar I have ever played. It is almost impossible to get the sustain the Veleno has going your route. But.very cool nonetheless. Whenever you talk to Steve, ask him if they switched the nut before or after Minnesota. The story goes Kurt asked Steve to bring one of his aluminium guitars, but I don't know how he would've known Steve even having them as Shellac just got started and Steve didn't use ant aluminum guitar in Big Black or Rapeman. The Veleno story is by far what I want to know the most when you make it here to Chicago. Keep it up, I love this stuff!
