| Toy Caldwell played an ES335 variant almost exclusively.
When I saw him play last he had a Boogie amp (combo).
He's got a smokin' sound! Also, fwiw - he doesn't use a pick.

| Caldwell, tele/twin...
Hmmm,,, every time I've seen him, it's been with a Les Paul....
And if ya ask me, the sound, as I recall, is very Paul sounding,
not much tele-bite there at all.... plus, he doesn't use a pick,
it's all done with his thumb.. even cooler huh ???
stp.... couldn't tell ya...

2986.3 | thumbs up | RICKS::CALCAGNI | There's no money to be made above the 5th fret | Tue Oct 04 1994 09:12 | 3 |
| I never realized he used his thumb, but it makes sense now;
no doubt it helps him get that "velvet hammer" tone!

| I like the way his amp sounds in the recording, like they musta miked
it with him in small room? Nice ambience.

a less-paul...

| Another old-time Tucker fan checking in here. Last I saw them (which
was at least 10 years ago!) he was using a paul and a boogie.

2986.7 | Pat Metheny sounds | RHETT::LINCE | | Thu Nov 10 1994 12:38 | 6 |
| Ok - How does Pat Metheny get his sound (I've heard lexicon PCM-60)
any specifics? Also, does anyone have any samples of the "synth horn"
sound he uses? (I know it's a synclavier --- has anyone sampled it
to a different format?)

| PCM-60 ... doubt it. If my memory is serving me, the PCM-60 is
a cheesy "preset" type reverb unit. Not many fx to be had out
of that puppy.

Yeah, it's a preset only dedicated reverb unit, but I wouldn't call it
cheezy. I have one and it consistantly sounds great!
If you mean a programmable multieffects unit, the Lex PCM-70 might fit
the bill, but I can't imagine anyone using one live, that's a studio
beastie. Maybe a Lex Prime Time...
