...I know its a love or hate sound, but I've always wondered how Peter got that grind in the guitars, especially back in the mid to late 90s, before Abyss was completely whored-out. Any insight, gents?
It's just a guess here, but sometimes I think that he got that special sound because of two mics on the speaker that were NOT totally in phase.
Peter has for a long time used a SansAmp PSA 1, which is a huge part in his/the abyss tone. He probably doesn't use it by itself alot, he probably blends it in with other amps.
I think he was one of the first to use Krank amps, not really sure but I have discovered them with him.
Does he actually do studio work for other bands atm?
Well, whatever. I took a bunch of pictures while I was there, like 80% equipment and stuff and 20% the usual stupid bandmate pictures, hehe. I don't know if anyone would be interested in seeing it, but I could always try to dig them up. Might still be at my parents' place though, have to check.
Looks like it has been a big change there, since your pictures was taken...
