Old Weird Neil's classic rig.


where's a fucking magnatone when you need it?

Saw him at ACL two years ago with a reunited Crazy Horse.

He had a Tetris stack wall of amps and speaker cabs, most of which I couldn't identify.

His tone was like the voice of God. All-powerful and eternally loving.

yeah but that whizzer is weird. I wonder how fast it turns the knobs. is it instantaneous or kinda gradual like? Freaky.

that's why they call him 'old weird neil'.

jibberish

he is pretty dialed in, whatever it is...

remember someone linked an article, or maybe I read somewhere in a magazine that he could tell when the mains were low. his amps didn't sound quite right.

his pedal selection seems basic.

From what I've read the Whizzer is set to various levels of gain & reverb which he uses as dirt boxes so to speak. Brilliant idea for a tube amp. Doesn't he also use a Magnatone for its vibrato?

what clips or songs of his should I pay attention to to hear this rig to end all rigs?

MichaelZodiac

Every electric piece he's ever done. Weld is good live summary of some of his best work. On Psychedelic Pill (recent album) he's doing it pretty neat too.

I'm not trying to be disrespectful to Mr. Young, however, this rig needs to be strongly considered.

Holy shit.

That pedalboard looks like some kind of recovered alien technology.
