Members synth2themax Posted May 26, 2006 Members Share Posted May 26, 2006 If you guys listen to The Mars Volta you know that the guitarist Omar Rodriguez-Lopez uses quit a few effects. I love listening to this band and alway wanted to know what he uses. This might be an impossible question, but if you guys have any ideas I would love to hear them. thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, Omar and Frusicante seem to be buds. The former does a solo on the new RHCP while the latter also shows up on TMV's Deloused. Omar's influence comes through on a couple tunes off the new RHCP, "Strip My Mind" in particular...I think. It's all good...we're all friends here :jb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members gregovertone Posted May 26, 2006 Members Share Posted May 26, 2006 omar had frus. play quite a bit a francies. from what i understand.....Omar is not going to play AT ALL on the upcoming record. he is having frusciante play ALL of his parts, so he can concentrate 100% of his efforts on the recording and producition.

He did some on Frances, as they now have a permanent bassist and he didn't play any bass on this album. If you own the albums, it says who does what and when.

Members StratAtak83 Posted May 27, 2006 Members Share Posted May 27, 2006 I;m a big mars volta fan . live they put on a great show... now that im into effects more than ever , i realized , that big board plays him ... he doesn't use his effects all that great ... he'd could get away with a board with just 7 pedals tops..
