I know there has been a ton of speculation on here for ages regarding Guy's effects set up. I finally found good pics:

 

Rack:

 

Pedalboard

awesome!

I wonder which pedals are for which song?

why 2 times the SAME floor-controller? backup?

and what's a BF2 ?

"why 2 times the SAME floor-controller? backup?"

 

I would assume so. When You look at live footage it seems like his floorboard is about the size of 1 of those units.

great! where'd you find these pictures?

Wow thanks ALOT!! Now I can find out what exact effects he use in the songs :D

Indeed! Like he asked? :D

Wow, I never knew Mike's site existed, I believe someone was asking about it a while back and no link could be found. Well it definately puts a few things into place about Jonny's setup that's for sure :). Thanks for the link

Wow dude! That's AWESOME!!!! :thumbsup::thumbsup:

Maybe backup, and also maybe so a member of the crew can do the switching for him when hes on the b-stage?

Guy uses a phased bass?

BF2 is a Flanger

I'll admit I'm not an expert on Bass stuff, but I can't for the life of me hear most of those effects on any of Guy's live Bass parts. can anyone shed some light on when things like the Whammy and/or Flanger are used?

I have to check it out.

 

I know a effect for sure for some songs.

For the bassless parts in most songs he is using the effect called 'mute'. :laugh3:

he definitely uses effects on daylight and gpasuyf i cant hear anything else on any other songs, it'd be interesting to find out

are you sure? daylight and gpasuyf??

gpasuyf and Daylight are both clean bass...

 

Most effects are used on X&Y and VLV.

 

The effects used:

MUTE = No sound

RV5 = Boss Reverb

BF2 = Boss Flanger

WHAM = Digitech Whammy(probably)

MXR = Chorus(probably)

RAT = Distortion

PEDAL = Volume or Wah, probably volume.

sometimes live he uses a cool sort of overdrive sound

MXR is the phase 90 i believe

He uses something to play the bit at the end of the first verse of VLV

I think rv-5 is used for vlv

MXR is the phase 90 i believe

I've checken the photos of the rack, there are pedals in there and compared but I think it's the Chorus!

I think rv-5 is used for vlv

I think in VLV the RV5 and MXR and a little bit RAT.

Guy using RAT:
