How do they make that sweet distorted sound they always have. LIke on rocket or today.... or muzzle.

But mainly on siamese dream?

special pups? Or a certain pedal?

    Look up the Electro Harmonix Big Muff. That's the one. I believe Billy taped a Big Muff to one of his guitars. I think they use the small stone phase shifters too.
    My Girlfriend said to me..."How many guitars do you need?" and I replied...."How many pairs of shoes do you need?" She got really quiet.

    great. I secretly didn't want to know that. If I ever get that sound, I may play Mayonnaise end on end until i am dead.

    Well on Mayonaise, I know billy was playing a cheap guitar, that everytime he stopped playing, it made that feedback whistle. you know that "well no one knows" part. You can imitate that by craking up the gain to the max, and making your pickups level with your amp, stading about a foot away from it. Mayonaise is one of my fave songs ever, play it well!

    The feed back in mayonaise is easy to do with an Octave Fuzz & Comp peaked out.

    I have a set of cheap wax-potted ceramic humbuckers that would feedback like that... make me an offer...
    ...and if you don't like it, you can suck on an egg.

    You can get this effect with just the Zvex fuzz factory by closing the gate and limiting the feedback. but then you can get about any fuzz effect with the fuzz factory its just expensive at $225
