bj.mort Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 (edited) So it could be fun and helpful to others to list songs and what type of guitar pickup and position is used for each so people can better recreate the tones. Once we have a general consensus we can collage into a single post. I’ll get started with an initial list. Single coil - animals (neck position) - the globalist (neck clean, bridge distorted) Humbucker - hysteria (bridge) - Time is running out (bridge) - Stockholm syndrome (bridge) - falling away with you - TSP (bridge) - fury (bridge) - thoughts of a dying atheist (bridge) - sing for absolution (bridge) - butterflies and hurricanes (bridge) - new born (bridge) - bliss (bridge) - hyper music (bridge) - plug in baby (bridge) - citizen erased (bridge) - take a bow (bridge) - starlight (bridge) - supermassive nlack hole (bridge) - map of the problematique (bridge) - Assassin (bridge) - resistance (bridge) - guiding light (bridge) - supremacy - madness - survival - liquid state - unsustainable - dead inside - psycho - mercy - reapers - the handler - revolt P90 - black out (neck) - invincible (dual bridge) - exo politics (bridge) - hoodoo (neck) - knights of cydonia (bridge) - uprising (neck) - unnatural selection (bridge) - defector (bridge) - micro cuts (neck) - mk ultra (dual bridge) Edited January 22, 2018 by bjmort Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firellama24 Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eX92tTdLnm0 Is that a P90? I feel like it is, Matt used the Manson Mirror for the live versions of Assassin in 2006 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bj.mort Posted January 21, 2018 Author Share Posted January 21, 2018 Isn’t the resistance mainly MBk2 I remember reading an article where humans and said that Matt specifically requested that pick up during the recording of that album Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nerd herd Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 Isn’t the resistance mainly MBk2 I remember reading an article where humans and said that Matt specifically requested that pick up during the recording of that album Wasn’t it during recording for bh&r that Hugh went to whatever studio in France and changed all of MB’s pickups? Think I know which article you mean though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Part of why the original Delorean got retired because he didn't want to change it IIRC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bj.mort Posted January 22, 2018 Author Share Posted January 22, 2018 Yeah you guys are right it’s black holes that they were hanged. I have moved mk ultra to dual bridge p90 but I still think resistance is humbucker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james90 Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 I have moved mk ultra to dual bridge p90 but I still think resistance is humbucker Remember he could have used more than one guitar. Which he did. Strat (supposedly the aloha, which has those low output lace pickups) on the pre-chorus bits, and one of his customs on the more distorted parts. Not sure which one. Listening to the album isn't the best way to tell. Better to find the isolated tracks (if they exist) but that still doesn't give a definitive answer. ...What guitar was used to record citizen erased?

NERHO Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 ...What guitar was used to record citizen erased? From musewiki: "Citizen Erased is the only song where the 7 String E Guitar is used. Coincidentally, it is assumed a six-string was used to record this song, thought to be the Delorean, as a Fuzz Factory is featured in the solo, and early photos of said guitar show a bass string in place of the low E string, in order to accommodate drop A tuning. Matt owned both guitars at the time of recording, so it can't be said for sure which guitar(s) he used." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enit, like Uprising sounds a lot like either MQ 007 or another p90 (black kaoss) for the most part, then a neck LP for the riff and then live he just tends to use guitars with humbuckers in. Don't quite see the point in this thread. Like I get the purpose, but it just seems a bit pointless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I get the purpose, but it just seems a bit pointless enit If you're referring to the studio videos, that gives a good idea of what was used, but doesn't necessarily mean it ended up on the actual track. That is true about live stuff though. He could be using something completely different. No harm in leaving it for now, although it's a bit worrying that K&T seems to be one of the most active areas on the board now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely reckon that LP made the recording and a lot of BH&R and TR has that p90 MQ/black kaoss tone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daveno1 Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 He hardly ever uses the single coil, seems a bit pointless. Not sure why he does not just use humbucker bridge and p-90 neck for his main current guitars. I know there's the sustainer but even then how often does that get used?
