yellowtalk Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 Left To Right On the Pedal Board: Obsessive Compulsive Drive Fulltone http://www.fulltone.com/ocd.asp EH XO Micro POG Polyphonic Octave Pedal I think he uses it in the solo of Violet Hill http://www.guitarpartscanada.com/product_info.php?products_id=870' Ibanez Tube Screamer http://www.dolphinmusic.co.uk/page/shop/flypage/product_id/16001 Thats all For now more information later!:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fakfak Posted July 23, 2008 Author Share Posted July 23, 2008 The solo on Violet hill doesn't sound like the POG to me. I'm pretty sure the OCD is what provides. the main heavy distortion for violet hill. I'm almost positive the POG is used in the first part of 42. other than that, I'm still trying to figure things out....:worried2: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fakfak Posted July 23, 2008 Author Share Posted July 23, 2008 I think I've got it all figured now (apart from the custom made gear which is almost impossible to definatively id.

fakfak Posted July 24, 2008 Author Share Posted July 24, 2008 "He has enough gear" Only about 1/10th as much as The Edge. I'm convinced Edge's rig could fly to the moon and back!:laugh3: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yellowtalk Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 so does his Pandora box control the different Rack units? Also very interesting to see he has 3 seperate Wah Pedals... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PianoRocker Posted July 24, 2008 Share Posted July 24, 2008 Not all three are Wah's. Also Volume pedal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fakfak Posted July 24, 2008 Author Share Posted July 24, 2008 two of the pedals are expression pedals, not Wah's. One looks like it's connected to the reverb pedal and the other is probably for volume As for the foot control. I'm assuming Jonny does most of his onstage controlling with the custom Mike Hill switcher on the main board. However, there is a Voodoo Labs Ground Control Pro in the photo with the rack, But I'm guessing that's used off-stage by his tech to control his sound when he's away from his board.

Malcolm-Edge Posted July 26, 2008 Share Posted July 26, 2008 Edges gear makes my head hurt... He has about 10 times as much as johnny yeah. He doesn't even have pedals on the floor anymore. He just uses a 'Pandoras box' to a rack that can eat johns for dinner. Ever wanna get into Edges delay and stuff, google edges delay....good page in there somewhere.

yellowtalk Posted July 26, 2008 Share Posted July 26, 2008 Yes true, i watched a day in the life of the Edge that really opened my eyes to how much stuff he has, 47guitars on tour, technician with a computer who controls his sound and all his racks and amps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malcolm-Edge Posted July 26, 2008 Share Posted July 26, 2008 Poor Dallas. He has to retune every guitar depending on Bono's vocal key which he usual decides 10 minutes to show time.... Edge is a technical guy. Expect more new pedals on the new album in November. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yellowtalk Posted July 26, 2008 Share Posted July 26, 2008 Though Dallas said thats not the worst, He reckons the worst is when Bono changes the setlist during the show and he then has to scramble for the right guitar and find the right sound on the computer within 30 seconds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fakfak Posted July 26, 2008 Author Share Posted July 26, 2008 During the Vertigo Tour edge had 57 guitars on the road!:laugh3: His "rack" is actually two standard racks linked together and places side by side to allow for the sheer number of units.

Though he helps make U2 amazing. Johnny is slowly getting up there on Edge greatness. Maybe in 20 years.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fakfak Posted July 27, 2008 Author Share Posted July 27, 2008 "Are there also pics of Guy's pedals" I've yet to find any clear photos of Guy's pedalboard yet, though it does seem like he has a fairly sizable board this tour as well. If I find anything, I'll be sure to post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yellowtalk Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 which pedals do any of you have from Jon's pedal board? Anyone got the same model guitar or amp? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bearcat1229 Posted July 27, 2008 Share Posted July 27, 2008 I have a 72 thinline, natural finish with factory standard humbuckers. Its not custom or anything like im sure his is, but it plays very nicely. Great attack and the neck is slippery slick. I also have a Boss DD-5 (similar to his DD-3), a Phase 90, Line6 DL4 (awesome pedal!), MXR Micro Amp (which it doesnt look like he is using this tour), and the ProCo Rat distort. I also have a Boss Tremolo which he used to use in the early days but doesn't look like he does now. I don't have a DeVille Amp although I want one or a Vox amp. Some day I hope to save up for a Rickenbacker 620 as well (same as Chris Urbanowicz from the editors uses, similar in feel to the thinline). Pricey though...
