    Foo Fighters used a Deluxe Memory Man on “Breakout” and “Headwires.”

    isn’t it ‘breakout’ that has chorus/phaser (or something modulation-wise on the intro) ….I wonder if that’s an ehx pedal?

    I’ve never even heard the song :doh: I just posted it because I found the article while browsing interviews with the keyword “harmonix” in them.

    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.

    It sounds quite amazing though, and I’m reluctant to sell it; but I just bought a 90s Japanese Fender Mustang, so I have to let it go 😥

    you have??!!?? :wave:

    I just bought it on eBay today. $375. How could I resist? So now I’m selling off stuff I have doubles of to afford it – Electric Mistress, Small Stone, and possibly my second Flanger Hoax 😥

    But it’s worth it to have a Japanese Mustang. I’m sure you will agree :D

    Here’s the crap pic that was in the auction. The original knobs were switched out for chrome tele knobs, which doesn’t bother me in the slightest; but he says that everything else is stock.

    I think the DEM sounds a lot more natural, but its huge and has its own power supply, so I stuck with the XO.

    Keep an eye out for a vintage 9v Electric Mistress. That would be your ticket if you want to go analog. I’m actually getting ready to sell mine on eBay because I already have 2 other vintage Mistresses. It sounds quite amazing though, and I’m reluctant to sell it; but I just bought a 90s Japanese Fender Mustang, so I have to let it go 😥

    Here’s my current setup.

    The fuzz face has been San Francisco’d :thumb:

    Sweet setup. I just got my Bass Micro Synthesizer in. What a great sounding box.

    How are you liking your XO Mistress?

    I have/had a picture of him with a electric mistress and a muff, he used a microsynth on starla and for the cherub rock solo. Iha used to have a small stone taped to a Flying V. He himself talks about using the muff and microsynth in the liners of a album.

    They definitely used a pile of ehx stuff.

    And how about later frippatronics with the 16 second delay?

    Cool. I didn’t know that the Pumpkins talked about gear in the liner notes. I always love when bands do that. I’m such a gear geek.

    As for Fripp, the only album I know for certain where he uses the 16 Second Digital Delay is:

    David Sylvian
    Gone To Earth
    “Taking the Veil”, “Gone To Earth”, “Wave”, “River Man”, “Silver Moon”, “Upon This Earth “
    Robert Fripp
    EHX: 16 Second Digital Delay

    YouTube: Wave, Silver Moon

    Come to think of it, I’m not sure if this would work well as a wiki — because each post has a maximum number of characters — so, either we’d have to break it into multiple posts or I’d have to raise the max size (which might not be such a good idea).

    Anyhow, one advantage is that we’d wind up with a organized and collected list — or we could just fire them into a series of posts — do you have a preference?

    As for references, they’re great, though I’m not sure if they should be a requirement.

    As a format, how about something like:

    BAND
    ALBUM
    “TRACK”
    PERFORMER
    EHX: {}
    REFERENCES: {}
    SUBMITTER

    So, per F&EHX;, we might have something like:

    Nine Inch Nails
    The Downward Spiral
    “Mr. Self Destruct”
    Adrian Belew
    EHX: Frequency Analyzer
    References: 1, 2, 3
    Submitted by Fender+EHX4ever

    Does this make any sense? I think I could get lots more people to see the list if it were in some sort of format — but it would take a bit more work — but, with a bit of thought now, perhaps not too much additional work.

    Anybody care one way or the other?

    I really like that format! Good clean cataloging. Should we add a line for YouTube links to the song as well?

    Question: do y’all think we should treat this thread like a Wiki?

    Meaning, what if we were to edit the suggestions into the first post in an on-going way — does that make any sense?

    That works for me, but I really like the idea of providing references. For example, I’ve heard from a variety of sources that Billy Corgan used a Big Muff, and I’ve also heard that he didn’t. Does anyone really know for certain? Pics? Interviews?

    I use Electro-Harmonix Tubes in my 3 Fender amps. I’m not a tube connoisseur, but I know that they sound great to me.

    That picture of the necklaces, it kills me.

    The Hall was totally weird, as EHX sold almost nothing there (from what I remember, just the light art).

    It was on 48th Street (NYC’s music performance district), so the idea was that you’d try stuff there and then walk over to Manny’s/Sam Ash/Rudy’s/etc. to purchase.

    It was all black, with a counter on the right when you walked in. On the left, there were pedestals with EHX gear, guitars, and headphones — you could just walk in, and pick up a guitar, and play. In the back, there was a stage.

    Once, we actually had 48th street closed off, and Adrian Belew did a little performance. Something was wrong with one of the pedals, and Mike bent over to see what was wrong, and his pants split in two. Oh, and I remember somebody’s shouting at him, “capitalist pig.”

    That’s a great story, Scott! Reminds me of the back room of Spencer’s Gifts as it was back in the 70s.

    you are like a cop for ehx. Always suspected it ;) 😆

    This is serious business, tubezipper. We need hard, cold evidence that Electro-Harmonix is the choice of the Gods :metal: None of this, “I think so and so used a Big Muff, but I’m not sure.” Conjecture has no place in this thread :nono:

    Billy Joel used a Small Stone with his Fender Rhodes for his 1977 recording of “Just The Way You Are.”

    I always suspected it, as it has the undeniable Small Stone swoosh; but I finally found an article to prove it.

    Billy Joel
    The Stranger
    “Just The Way You Are”
    Billy Joel (on a Fender Rhodes)
    EHX: Small Stone
