Buzz's Guitar Setup

[Smellis]

Im pretty sure it was a turbo. Did you have to wait this long to ask my memory is really fuzzy.

Yeah I guess I did!  It was mentioned that Crover was using the delay that is in Buzz's rig. What was he using it for? I don't remember hearing it during any of the BB songs.

He could have been using it as a really really short delay, just to make his tone thicker. I do that sometimes. He might, too. But unless he was using it for that, I don't remember hearing it either.

Buzz uses the strings from a grand piano for his guitar and then usually tunes it down a half step.  Even bass guitar strings are not heavy enough for him.

your thinking of Stevie Ray Vaughn.


I posted his setup a while back, Its around here somewheres.

for the latest tour he was using a boss delay>boss overdrive>proco TURBO rat> boss tuner into an Orange head and a hiwatt cab.

I dunno what kind of strings he uses, but I remember reading somewhere that he doesnt really care.

hope that helps.

Stevie Ray tutored a young Buzz Osborne. I learned this and many more things from a certain Melvins "interview".

Ernie Ball guitar strings are both cheap, comfortable and last forever.  I've never broken a string.  Also, Dead Cowboy, in the thread concerning Buzz's Rig (Name of thread for those searching) it was agreed that the Orange head belonged to Tim Moss and was set atop the Hiwatt cabinet turned on to screw with fans while Buzz played into some rackmounted Sunn amps.
