Members fuzzface71 Posted April 12, 2008 Members Share Posted April 12, 2008 It seems to me that on recordings he uses cranked smaller amps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members wacopacco Posted April 12, 2008 Members Share Posted April 12, 2008 he may not still be using it, but it's all over most of the recordings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Selmer Zodiac Posted April 12, 2008 Members Share Posted April 12, 2008 Another pedal he loves........... The Venerable..... Jordan Boss Tone He picked up in London. *** Anyone know much on the History of Jordan / Boss Tone, I know a lot of '60s players used them....Randy California on the Spirit Records for one....sadly missed !!! I have 3 very early prod 1st Version ones before they changed the circuit in later Alhambra CA / Pasadena / Sho Bud ones.......Great little boxes.

Members guitardustin Posted April 12, 2008 Members Share Posted April 12, 2008 I saw them last night and he had a Green Russian Sovtek and an Analogman Sunface. I think his board changes quite a bit honestly but it sounded damn good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members jake.lind Posted April 12, 2008 Members Share Posted April 12, 2008 I was watching some youtube videos of black keys.... its ok!any particular reason for the no bass player choice? They reasoned that there wasn't enough sonic room to have a bass player with their playing styles being such as they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of my good friends went down there to catch the show. If you see a college student with long hair and a beard, go ahead and say hi. On second thought, that's going to be most of the people there. Never mind. I really wanted to go but prior obligations prevented me It'll probably be a great show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love their sound. oh pleeeeease....I really dont get these arguments, first one is ok but the thick as hell.... nothing cant be as thick as hell... and also its always putting the bass players to the ol stigma of keeping the beat with drums and not and after the next dispensable player, second to the conga guys:freak:!

I am not very keen on this ..............."trend"..... yep, that is what I said!!!! If you listen to Dan's tone you can easily hear that it wouldn't cut through with a bass in live situations. With that said there are songs with bass on the new album. Also Dan uses a finger picking style that mimics having a bassline in the song. I also sincerely doubt that the Black Keys consciously decided to not have a bass player based on some trend. They wouldn't be able make music as amazing as theirs if they were worried about that kind of stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone has their own opinion though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
