    don’t forget Peter Hook used the Clone Theory on many of his basslines in Joy Division and New Order (if that wasn’t mentioned here already)

    Okay, I finally listened to those two songs on YouTube, and Grohl is confused. He says Memory Man, but he means Small Stone. These Rock Stars need to get their gear straight.

    Or maybe they should quit the booze and whatnot.

    Has anyone done a exact breakdown per track of what Andy Summers has used in Police songs?

    All I know is that he used a compressor (Boss CS-2?) with an Electro Harmonix Electric Mistress and a Maestro Echoplex, and possibly his MXR Phase 90.

    And, that the Mistress is his key method of chorusing, rather than a dedicated chorus pedal.

    I’m pretty sure john frusciante uses some sort of ehx pedal on “The Empyrean”. He probably uses one of the holy grail reverb pedals in his song “Central” because there is a ton of reverb and i know he has one on his pedalboard.

    I’m not sure if this fills the requirement of iconic, but John Mayer uses the POG on In Repair. There’s a video called “One song, one day” where they show how the track was written and recorded.

    Also, I don’t remember what tracks it’s used on, but I remember listening to an interview with John Frusciante on musicradar.com where he says that he used the English Muff’n on The Empyrean.

    A famous cult band with an extremely rare recording featuring EHX pedals. I just saw one for sale on eBay.

    Yep! I just learned that yesterday. Now if I could just figure out which phaser they use on Bee Thousand. Something tells me it’s a Small Stone, but I’m looking for evidence.

    Invincible, Do What You Want, Get Over it. And a few others from both of their albums.

    Update: turns out that it was a Stereo Memory Man, not a Deluxe Memory Man. Edited.
