Steve Jones (Sex Pistols)

Re: Steve Jones (Sex Pistols)

That clip was pre-Bollocks btw.

Yeah listening to that I would say he is using something like an old Linear Power Booster. I would tend to guess that is more in line with his sound at that time rather than an OD or distortion pedal.

And yes it is very cool swapping gear with Thurston.

Great guitar playing and great production. Norlin Les Paul through a Fender Twin, cranked and layered like crazy.

This might be a new record on thread necromancy...

Not even close... right now there are thread necros from 04 floating at the top of the pickup lounge. A few months ago Dean Sweden had a big hardon for bumping the oldest threads he could find.
 
Re: Steve Jones (Sex Pistols)

Do Amphetamines count as an OD?

Yes...they do!

I've owned several Twins over the years, blackface, silver and silver with master volume.
None of them could get that tone. Usually everything turns to mush past 6. I've been listening to Youtube clips
of the MXR Distortion+ and I believe that is what he used.

Wow. It took 5 pages and 6 years to get a straight answer. That's punk.

Ew this threads from way back when that Pockets guy used to post here.

This place has come a long way since he stopped wasting everybody's time.

Sex Pistols played at GRANADA TV, everyone knows it, you can see steve jones is playing as we know FENDER TWIN, and he's got orange FLANGER pedal, try to play FLANGER effect, you will sound very close to sex pistols!
