Andrew W.K. - I Get Wet (Guitar Equipment)

[LBTM]

From a conversation I had with Phil X:

i played all the rhythms and some overdubs.
on party hard, i'm pretty sure is was a Gibson Les Paul custom with
a P94 bridge pickup into a Diezel VH4 in channel 3, tripled
with a Gibson SG in a Naylor 60 watt.

i did all my stuff with amps with producer Scott Humphrey
at his studio but then Andrew decided to finish the record with
another producer but i know they kept all my stuff.
it's possible that he did some overdubs with the sansamp [PSA1]
but it doesn't sound like it to me.

[LBTM]

love this album

yeah, it pretty rad. to bad andrew w.k. is a fraud thought.

 

[ChrisTanakaCanwell]

in what way?

 

[LBTM]

in what way?

he is a created persona played by many actors.

 

[JonWormwood]

he is a created persona played by many actors.

Details?

 

[ChrisTanakaCanwell]

I thought that was just some fabricated conspiracy because people found out that his persona was created by a group of people? Regardless, I've met "him" a few times over the years and whoever I was talking to seemed like a really nice, down-to-earth dude. Didn't seem like it could have possibly been an imposter.

I dont buy that business that there has been multiple AWK's.

Is the persona an act?

Dont care.


That album is amazing. P94 eh? Wouldnt have guessed that. Awesome!

 

[LBTM]

Yeah, who cares if he's a created persona. They're music is good anyway.

@The spark That's the sound of P-94. For some reason I was sure it was this or P-90 in the first 5 seconds into the song.

 

[kev]

Haha awesome, I had no idea it was Phil X on that. I used to love party hard/she is beautiful when it came on kerrang. Still love that album!

 

[colonel kurtz]

Yeah, who cares if he's a created persona

most rappers/rock stars/pop stars anyways, so the whole thing seems pretty moot to me...

and i'm going to assume the "tripled" track stayed panned center then, while the diezel tracks were hardpanned L/R?
