the rig to end all rigs.

[Beta Cloud]

Old Weird Neil's classic rig.


where's a fucking magnatone when you need it?

[Jake]

That's a motherfucker that knows tone.

[Danny G]

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.

[mortlock]

gotta love anyone who would paint a goldtop black..

[eyeprod]

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

[Beta Cloud]

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.

[MichaelZodiac]

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?

[everdrone]

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.

[The Shocker]

I have a soft spot for Ragged Glory.

[everdrone]

thx, checking out psychadelic pill on spotify right nwo, I do like disc golf so I dig the disc/frisbee on the cover

ontario!

[johnny problem]

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

[Jake]

Oh my.

[The Shocker]

Whose is that?

[Jake]

Someone from...THE FUTURE!

[Danny G]

Holy shit.

That pedalboard looks like some kind of recovered alien technology.
