Adam played drums on the first kse album unless you mean his first on guitar.
That makes no sense. Can someone explain that to me. :0
I also saw an older vid where both Adam and Joel were usin' Mesa Triple Rectifiers along with Vox AC30s for cleans.
And finally, in a interview, they said that for a majority of the rythmn parts of the new album were done with a Diezel VH4, and were overdubbed with a Splawn Nitro and a Fuchs Tripledrive.
They also said that they keep their overdrive pedals on the entire time, but turn the gain all the way down, for more bite to their tone.
And for the song "Take Me Away", they used a Fender Twin Reverb and an Orange Tiny Terror for the cleans and "dirty" cleans, and they tuned their guitars to D Standard instead of Drop C.
Joel is using a Nitro as well along with a Fuchs Viper; both go into Mesa 4x12 cabs, and he is using a Fuchs Clean Machine Combo for clean tones. Guitar wise, he said he's using a Caparison TAT Custom.
In a past issue they said that both Adam and Joel were experimenting with new amps including Diezels, Splawns, Oranges, and Fuchs along with various overdrive and delay pedals for the new album.
