  • 90% of his solos are delay and wah

    edit, thats also with his overdrive on the amp or through the ts9, i dunno which one

    on NAIS his solo sound is delay, wah, fender blender (fuzz/octave)

    Yeah, its just wah and delay and various other fx. But I know for sure he doesn't use an ebow on black on LO2L.

  • very cleverly used delay.

    also some sounds (whale sounds) are probably made by careful pick scraping wiht that wah/delay set up.

    i love his fuckin delay, not the pedal but how he uses it, sometimes its just a short echo other times it echos for a while and the time delay is longer

    if you haven't heard the one time they played Little Wing (Jimi) thats probably the best solo i've ever heard. from anyone.

    http://www.theskyiscrape.com has it on mp3. it was in 1995 it think.. chad smith plays drums for that one.

    the work mike does with the delay is why i consider him one of the greatest.

    i take it you are talking about Maggot Brain right? which Mike starts playing right after Little Wing. you should check out the original by Funkadelic or Mike Watts version (well at least its on a Mike Watt album, i'm not sure if it is him playing it.)
