After just now revisiting this? I've concluded that perhaps you are the only other person I know, within casual correspondence, that is as equally obsessed with the "Homme sound" as I am. Unfortunately, my budget hasn't allowed me to venture as far down that gear rabbit hole as you have, but DAMN? I must honestly say that you've freaking NAILED IT! Nice freakin job amigo!! My main "tone chasing" interests basically still reside within the first three QOTSA albums. When I immediately noticed the tonal characteristics of mutual influences like Greg Gin of Black Flag?! Especially within songs like "Tension Head" from Rated R?! As soon as I connected those dots? My obsession began. The personally limited attempts I still mainly use are a Catalinbread SFT MkII with an OD-1/SD-1 and an EQ. Occasionally I will throw in a POG as well as various delays and modulations. My goal has been to capture some of that raw untamed midrange "bite", and develop my own diverse pallet from there artistically. Still quite jealous of that Eastwood copy BTW lol. Currently looking for a pair of Vintage DiMarzio Super 2's to throw in my LP, though I may settle for the current retail productions. You should seriously do a "How to Sound Like Kyuss" video, but you must remember... Josh exclusively played on the neck pickup throughout that time. That not only sounds like something that would awesome to watch, but seems like it would be fun as hell to make on your end. I apologize for leaving such a HUGE comment. I honestly do it everywhere. It's kind of my thing. LMAO! Great freakin video man. Stay Gold! Peace Love Unity & Respect \m/
@@LivingroomGearDemos Please! Do it,and we need it.You're one of the most accurate on the sound. You and SlackerVK really are the only that I could think of knowing a lot about Josh Homme's sound
qotsa first 3 records tone is basically always a combination of the Ovation with an sd-1 always on (vol. max, tone max, gain zero) used as a treble boost (remember that he loves Billy Gibbons tone) with different amps. Live tone until 2003 it's the same but with the V4b mainly. Live, when he didn't use the sd-1 always on, but only for solos, it's because he used a Dallas Rangemaster clone made by Dan Druff (his guitar tech). You can hear this very clearly on the 2002 tour with Grohl. The Maestro/Stone Deaf thing is based on the same principle, he's boosting the high-mids, in the same way and around the same freqs of the Sd-1 or the Rangemaster Clone (it's a one knob black pedal usually in the middle of his two boards from that period, except for the 2002 tour where's first in the chain). All these infos are solid gold :) For the bass sound try to cut out all the mids and push bass & treble to maximum as Oliveri stated in an interview, and crank the amp volume/gain (no pedals with bass).
@@ItsAlwaysSammy 1998/1999 tour he used V4b with two cabs (They look like Marshall B-cabs, I don't know about the speakers) at least for most of the shows here on youtube. In the earliest shows from that period he also used the Tubeworks head from Kyuss, but mainly as a pre-amp connected to the power section of a V4b or a Sunn Micro-T with Ampeg 8x10 cab. Then for Rated R tour he started to use the VT-40 as main amp (look at the vintage vinyl show, NJ), usually together with the V4b with two Ampeg 9x10 cab. Later he moved on to Orange 4x12 cabs instead of the ampegs (at least in the euro-festival shows from 2001), or Mesa 4x12 cabs in other shows (they look like Mesa cabs, I'm not sure). 2002 tour with Grohl it's vt40 or vt22 + 4x12 Mesa cab (one side) / Tech 21 Trademark 60 2x12 + 4x12 Mesa cab (the other side). Note that on the effect loop of the Tech 21 there are his Ehx Bass Micro-synth and I think (I'm quite sure) a Deluxe Memory Man (both pedals are on top of the amp). Listen to 2002 Southside festival here on youtube and you can clearly hear the micro-synth always on on some tracks, it sounds "weird" on Regular John or Walking on the Sidewalks. 2003 tour it's Vt40 and v4b+2x12 Ampeg cab., while Troy was getting more space in the band. I don't bother too much about Josh tone after this tour, because Qotsa became a total different band, more complex and articulate in the tone, and I think that the Maestro/Stone Deaf is filtering too much with the hollow bodies guitars, it's too much "hi-fi" sounding, too "perfect", but that's my personal taste. I like what they are doing now, but I prefer way more what they did back then, when the Ovation was the axe. :) I have more info on the pedals too if u care.
I forget one thing: on the 2002 show at the Troubadour he used an Ampeg v50h head with ampeg cab instead of the Tech 21 amp. It's basically Ampeg's take on Marshall sound, so my guess is tht the Tech 21 was set to emulate the Marshall sound too. There's a show from 1998 (Stuttgart) where he used a Marshall head together with the v4b, and one show from the Big Day Out festival 2001, where his tech switched one Ampeg head because of malfunctioning after a power failure for a Marshall head.
@@LivingroomGearDemos Can we get a hole Spider and Vinegaroons jam session in which you can add your own idea's I'd love to listen to a 3/4/5/6/7/8 or even 15 minute long jam session of that with those sounds.
Dude ! That was spot on ! Even the bass sound surprised me, using a MusicMan instead of a P Bass worked really nice, seamlessly blending with the guitars.
Nothing on the original tho, looks nowhere near as good in my opinion, and hasn’t got the best bits from it either, like the blended heel, headstock, unique inlays, and DiMarzio DP104 Super 2s
Holy shit man. I think this is worth the long wait for this video. Thank you so much, this is so bloody on point. All the tones are so similar to the originals. They are like the exactly the same. I think Josh now have to worry about finding his new tone, because you are showed how he gets his sound. 😅
Any ideas on how he gets the sound of the bridge part of 3's & 7's? ruclips.net/video/nOjv2srpqxE/видео.html ....It starts at the 54 second mark. Or his live version on If Only ruclips.net/video/ioYO7v7fN1U/видео.html. Both have this muted, dry fuzz sound to them. Just curious.
I watched your first sound like QOTSA years ago and I bought an Eastwood Stormbird, looks like your Fano. Now you've got an Eastwood that's like Josh's Ovation! I've got no chance? Still,..thanks. No one knows.
Are the pedals going right to left? Can somebody help? I think it must be, but I have the PDF 1x and I think it sounds better with the boost/overdrive before it but looks like it is after on here. But a fuzz before it? Again, I'm used to have my TS overdrive before the fuzz, sounds way better, but seems to work the other way here? AMazing job on this man, probably helped me buy the PDF 1x in the first place!
Wow! Cool revision! Nailed it my friend! The sounds on Mexicola and No one knows,... just wow. So rich and full. Loved how you made the mini humbuckers sound with rich low end, and retain still the rest of their character. Can't wait for the Kyuss video. By the way, can you do a video with suggesting budget gear, pedals etc, for a decent result close to this one? I know it could be a challenge!
Great sounds in this video. I especially liked the ones with the custom built tone machine without the octave. That fuzz sound is really good. Did you find that the Fuzz sounds better with the PDF 1x behind it in the chain with a midboost?
Here’s how to sound like Josh. Tune to C, switch to the neck pickup(!), study his style and then you don’t need “gear”. I’ve known this since before his last Kyuss records and confirmed it in a personal conversation backstage on the first Queens tour w/ Ween.
One thing that's really clear to me about Rated R through Lullabies is that he's using a guitar loaded with high output Dimarzios through an overdrive into a small combo amp (most likely different combo amps for each guitar take) On the intro to "Better living through Chemistry" There is NO WAY those are not Dimarzios. Either the Super Distortion, Super 2 or Super 3. Those are the only pickups that make a sound like that with the volume knob rolled off. Any guitar loaded with one of those 3 pickups, through an overdrive pedal into a combo amp will get you in the ball park of his early tone.
YOYOYO Idk if you still respond to these comments but I'm planning to get this same guitar the Eastwood GP. I have a Epiphone Les Paul Studio that I plan to change the stock humbuckers to some JB Seymour Duncans, I considered getting my guitar setup with a new nut and heavier strings for lower tunings (as I was gonna get a different one for standard tuning anyway) but I just decided to get the GP instead for C Standard. My only question is did you have to change your nut on the GP or had issues with string buzz and such, and can you still tune to other low tunings comfortably like Drop C#, B, A, D Standard etc.
I use 10s with a higher set up and I've noticed it gives me more volume and pushes the amp. At the end of the day I keep using 10s because I like being able to really dig in which would throw 9s way out of tunning. You cant sound good if you cant play good.
did you adjust the the gain from song to song or did u set it once and dial it in over the knobs? if u only set it once can u remember the position? thanks in advance. kind regards!
Hey great tones! However, there's something puzzling me... everybody seems to think Josh Homme was using the pdf 1x on riffs from "songs for the deaf" or "lullabies to paralyze"... however, the pedal did not even exist until aroun 2009 as far as I read from stone Deaf, so how is that possible? Did he use the Maestro Parametric Filter and then replaced it with the PDF once it came out? Or did he just use different pedals...
From what I know, he used the Maestro from the start of the first album onwards (there's photos of that) and then at some point more recently he tried a PDF. Not sure when and why, but obviously it did the job of replacing the Maestro.
Great job! Sounds pretty close. The only issue is the bass sounds pretty digital when isolated, but in the mix it would be difficult for one to pick up on that.
Hmm, really? I don't think it sounds digital. I'm guessing you perception of the sound just changed because I said it was digital. I don't know, just a theory ;)

For the Torino you can't get, you can easily use the CB SFT,- or any number of open, full range Drives, like Bondi Breakers, or the even more flexible Sick As. I prefer the EHX Pitchfork to the Digitech; it has a buffer & noise artifacts like most Octave pedals, so they're all best put in a TB looper,( like the little Xenagama's). Big fan of QOTSA, but would say that for these kind of "sounds like" that you should just learn what you liked about the sound, and keep it moving.The world doesn't need any more cover bands,- or, for that matter,- bands that are such a straight rip off that they might as well be,- and the idea is to ASSIMILATE,not COPY ; (unless, of course, your big mission is to get paid squat at weddings and barmitzva's until you get married and get a soul crushing, do nothing job). That's how QOTSA happened; they took all the influences that came before,- from Iggy, to Flipper, to Green River, to Fugazi ,- and stirred briskly.The tunings, the broad format,- all of Rock ( and every other genre) in one.That's how a great band does it.
i'm very surprised you put the qzone pedal after the fuzz. looking at pictures of the pedalboard (playing with TCV) it looked like the qzone goes first. Any ideas?
probably the closest thing i'll ever hear, was just wondering about the settings of the volume and tone knob the eastwood for some of those early qotsa tunes you were playing like I know with kyuss it was neck pickup with tone knob all the way down but then all of a sudden for early qotsa it was bridge pickup and was just wondering what you think the settings were for that in terms of the guitars volume and tone knob
@@LivingroomGearDemos what about tame impala part 2? maybe cover some more of the guitar tones from lonerism? kevin uses a KTG-1 preamp, and i'm curious if there's a way to create a similar tone without it.

I'm hoping for a sound like Jack White part 2 :)
I’m actually pretty happy with the first one. But we’ll see!
@@LivingroomGearDemos You did a good job with the first one. But there are some all new sounds in his last couple albums.
@@LivingroomGearDemos what about tame impala part 2? maybe cover some more of the guitar tones from lonerism? kevin uses a KTG-1 preamp, and i'm curious if there's a way to create a similar tone without it.
Can you do a budget version?
do highly suspect next!!!
What string gauges for the bass strings on the C standard bass?
How exactly is the digitech drop being used on that up and down riff at the end? Does that just drop the tuning down to C while you do the riff?
Guitar is tuned to E standard. The Drop is set to octave + dry. This is the setting I use most of the time.
LMAO, whats up with the face you make at 5:37. Can't stop laughing xD
haha
15:42 spiders :3
Nailed 'em!!
You are good at this my man. No one has come close so far, most people don't understand this tone at all. Fingers crossed for Kyuss recreation!
Thanks! Kyuss video is up already;)
Nailed it
when did josh klinghoffer get this accent?
What is that black guitar you're playing in the video ?
Hi! I mention it in the video. It's an Eastwood GP :)
Could you do a sounding like 'The Hives'? :) They always have cool tones going.
good idea
i love you, thx for your tips
What song is that at 10:38? BTW nice job
Era Vulgaris. The title track that never made the record ;)
more!
haha there's so much here already! Not more to cover
Hey where can I find your music, and is it anything like what’s in the intro!?
Hey, it's not like the one in the intro. I play guitar and lap steel in my wife's band. Search for Tina Refsnes.
great
What about sound like Kyuss??
Next one out
Please don’t.
Definitely do!
Listening more than looking. Perhaps I can do something similar with my crap gear.
What’s a good alternative to the pdf and sft?
none I guess
