How Dave Kilminster covers David Gilmour

Dogs. That's what the Pitchfactor is for. :eek:

Everything sounded amazing...

Glad you liked it!

I was lucky to have him as my teacher in 96 when I was in the UK for a few months. He had a much lighter gear but was already an incredible player. And a fun guy. He played mostly a Pink Paisley MIJ Tele IIRC.

Very cool! He seems like a cool guy.

Every time I see overblown boards, I sense a pro tech behind the scenes.

I'm pretty sure a guy like him would naturally gravitate toward a fuzz, boost, vibe, delay, and his supreme skills. Then, someone comes in and builds it up bigger.
Gilmour probably started out the same way, then went nuts with gear thrown at him.

It's a fun dilemma, I'd imagine.

It's always fun to see the wah. Interesting that he went for a Cantrell. It's one that has a low/mid focus.
So I've gone back and watched rig rundowns of his last few gigs. As Frostopsy posted, his 2010 rig was pretty simple, then his 2011/2012 The Wall rig was bigger, but more specific. (Smaller electric board than before, but added a second acoustic board)

Then he toured with Steven Wilson, and that's where the GigRig & Strymon board comes in... ;) he says he had 95 presets for that tour. :eek: Swapping a few items and reprogramming gets the board above. I guess once you have the Switcher board and understand it, it's a luxury you don't want to give up.

For The Wall his leads were a CC loaded Suhr, Riot pedal, Timefactor and sometimes a CE-5. It sounded great...
