How the hect did uberproaudio forget his gretsch custom with the three pickups that he sent to seattle to become a double cutaway and be one of the first guitars to have a green bullet harmonica mic
installed in the guitar i dont know what exact model it is but its a singlecut hollowbody custom
emmett   |2010-02-15 05:15:10
because this appears to be only white stripes, no raconteurs.
Marc Mercer  - A tuner?   |2009-12-11 11:33:17
What does he need the TU-2 for?
emmett   |2010-02-15 05:15:39
tuning his guitar
grardnr   |2010-02-15 09:22:03
Snap!
doug  - other pedals   |2009-10-28 15:20:47
in that picture that chrome colored pedal looks like a electro harmonix small stone nano, and the small pedal next to the big muff could also be a ehx POG micro im not sure thats what they are just
guessing. awesome pic though
uberpro  - new pic   |2009-10-28 10:32:58
Here's a newer picture of his pedals: http://www.flickr.com/photos/34621712@N04/3741529699/

Do you guys think that Zvex pedal is the Woolly Mammoth. It's the only one on the zvex site that has
4 knobs and one button....

Update - yes, that is the woolly mammoth
Erik   |2009-08-22 02:29:15
He uses a MXR Phase 90
loz  - answers   |2009-07-04 14:07:21
he rarely uses the Silvertone 1484, which is a 2x12, only when his 6x10 Silvertone is busy elsewhere or it's a smaller gig. Both the amps give very little tone but a diiirty sound.

and the copper
thing on his Racs amp is basically a touch-sensitive killswitch. He has one for guitar and another for the copper mic next to his amp.

no Gibson 345, but he occasionally uses a bass guitar in TWS &
that might be a Gibson.
Chris  - Silvertone 1484   |2009-06-23 12:41:05
I've seen a Silvertone 1484 amp in many of the live videos. Does anyone know what sounds he uses this for?
dirty? clean?
uberpro  - Crunch   |2009-06-23 12:48:43
He said in an interview in 2005 "The Silvertone gives me the crunch-and the crunch that comes from those six Jensen speakers is amazing"
TheStripes   |2009-06-07 12:17:10
What is the copper thing on Jack white;s amp when he plays with the raconteurs?
Bede  - King of post year 2000 rock!!!   |2009-05-01 00:59:33
Hes freakin awesome!!!...How he gets a twin reverb to sound that dirty il neva know .
jack   |2009-03-19 15:37:07
yea he uses a big muff still and i pretty sure he has a gibson 345
Lycanalysis   |2009-03-05 17:34:15
I heard he uses a Zvex Fuzz Factory
fabguitar   |2009-03-03 05:47:50
He also uses an analogman mute switcher
travis   |2009-03-01 22:49:12
You are forgeting the most important. He uses a DigiTech Whammy.
ddrumkid666  - I Think this is Wrong   |2009-02-18 13:24:35
I was told he dosent use a Big Muff any more. If you know for sure than get back to me.
