An album that’s hated by hard rock fans…

[Techdeth]

But man this tone is fucking cool . This is fender twins right !?

 

[ZEEGLER]

I don't hate it at all. I think it's great!

Yes, Fender Twin. Apparently stolen from Bob Marley and the Wailers who were using the studio next door.

Amazing record...start to finish. By the way, that record influenced MANY hard rock, metal and even 80s glam recordings.

 

[Floyd Eye]

I always liked this album.

That album is in my Top 10 greatest rock records ever made. Total game changer. I didn't hear any of the songs until the early 90's. The first time heard it, I realized right away why that album is so revered. Steve's guitar sounds are a sonic explosion. And Paul Cook is a ridiculouly underrated drummer...taste and rock solid timing!

And when they got back togther in 2007, they friggin' brought it. Steve's tone is pure Gibson Les Paul/Marshall JCM800 whoopass.

Milli Vanilli?

The video isn’t available and no one is referring to the album by name.

Sex Pistols's "Nevermind the Bollocks"

Funny thing about this being a Twin is that it probably convinced an entire generation to buy a JCM800

 

[japetus]

Sounds like a familiar tone to me

I had no idea that it was a fender twin. I have certainly never gotten my sf twin reverb to have that breakup on its own. Was era fender twin was it?

Given he stole it in 1976 I'd venture to guess a silver panel as those started production in the late 60s, though I guess there's always the chance the one he had was older since we know he didn't buy it new...just a lot of years between production start of silver panels and him acquiring it so odds are it's a silver. Don't know why the photo looks gold, but still think it's a silver.

I've got a brown/black panel Showman (exact same circuit as a Twin) and have never had it distort like that either, so also makes me feel like it's a silver panel (not that I know how the distortion on all those circuits sounds considering I use mine for cleans lol).

Never cared for that record.

Les Paul through a Twin=pure win:

They really did bring it ! I was shucked but they were great at that time

I get why it’s not liked too

 

[midnightlaundry]

You will hate this..

 

[skoora]

It’s only one of the greatest punk/rock records ever made.

 

[geetarmikey]

Never got the hype about this guitar tone personally.

You will hate this..

One of the best fucking live records ever!
