Lead tone

[Moredhel]

Hi guys,

I really dig Blakkheim's lead tone on the Katatonia albums, the new one in particular. Does anyone know or have an idea on what effects he uses to get that sound?

Cheers

boss gt-8 if i don't remember all wrong.

yeah, he used everything from GT-3 to GT-8 until this day.

 

[Blakkheim]

never got the GT-8, so it's GT-3 all the way...
apart from the feedbacker/sustainer, there's also a notch of chorus, the right amount and bounce of delay, and most importantly a load of tweaked EQ! thats what defines my lead, really.

hmm, i could have sworn i saw a gt-8 in the stockhålm gig?

He used a GT3 at the Houston gig... that's for sure.

Ahh, thank you Mr Blakkheim!

Feedbacker/sustainer hey? The one effect my G Major doesn't have...
Those Boss GT's are quite nifty
