Eric Johnson's Guitar tone (Help please)

[ysei]

Mga bro, ano bang mga pedal/effects ang ginamit ni EJ sa kantang SRV at Cliffs of Dover?

Sorry for noob question. I tried google pero kung saan saan lang ako napunta.

Thanks in advance.

tubedriver + delay + a good clean channel amp

or fuzz + light overdrive + delay + a good clean channel amp

those two can get you close to EJ tone not exact but close

Strat

Just to help, PedalBoard ni EJ.


Pero may mga tao na nakakakuwa ng tone ni EJ na iba nman gamit nila. imo More on skill based talaga un tone niya.

Watch this:

Basically you need stacked overdrive pedals (don't set the gain too high on both pedals; low-mid gain lang), delay, and a bit of reverb.

don't forget the 100 watt marshalls! and the FINGERS!!!

Thanks sa inyo mga bro. Subukan ko mamya sa bahay mga tips ninyo.

By the way I'm using Laney Cub10 amps. Yun lang kinaya ng budget ko. 

For my pedals, Boss SD-1 and Zoom G2.1u lang meron ako. 

Hindi ako magaling magtimpla, hindi ko alam kung ano dadagdagan ko or babawasan sa timpla.

hays...

maganda siguro, try mo magsimula sa basic na clean tone then add a little od tapos delay.

OD, delay and reverb muna siguro paglalaruan ko...thanks paps!

a good, thick sounding overdrive pedal + a dab of delay

if you're using a strat, switch to position 4 (bridge + mid pickup), roll down the mid pickup's tone pot a bit (around halfway).

tapos magpakulay ka na rin nga buhok, suot ka ng velvet na polo na long sleeve.. etc.. joke

poor man's Eric Johnson Setup for bedroom use:

AMPS:

Clean:  get a Fender Princeton Reverb (Silverface can do)
Overdrive:  Get an old Laney AOR 30 combo or head with a 2x12 cab with Celestion Greenbacks

GUITARS:

Get a low-output Strat-style guitar with alnico pickups. 

EFFECTS:

A/B switcher for clean and lead.
If you cannot afford a Fuzz Face, look for the Jimi Hendrix CLASSIC FUZZ.  A real cheaper version would be a DOD Classic Fuzz (incidentally the same name).
Get a Tube Screamer clone.
You need a good chorus pedal.
Ibanez DE-7 Delay Echo would be a good alternative to the Echoplex delay unit EJ uses.

In the current issue of Premier Guitar, there's an article about EJ's gear and tone. There's a photo of a finishing washer and screw at the back corner of the speaker cabinet. He said that it affects the tone and the feel..... What?   
The guy's tone is no doubt amazing. But come on, that is just stupid and silly.

I trust Wampler when he says it sounds like this or like that.

Then get a delay pedal and some reverb from a fairly good amp. That's right, a fairly good amp.
