Looking for 'Dont Get Me Wrong' Pretenders Sound

I've been playing this song recently and looking for anything help to get me in the zone tone wise for the main rthythm guitar part. I know it was Robbie McIntosh who played on the track but can't find any info on type of amps etc.What I have tried so far is a strat middle pup,heavy compression,damping the strings at the same time,like a shuffle rthythm. Sounds easy but things that sound easy usually aren't! I have been using one compressor in a stomp slot but not sure if this is enough - maybe I need to use 2 stages of compression? I tried a twin reverb profile but it does quite fit...Anyone any thoughts or ideas?

Thanks for that Paults!

This is where the Kemper comes into its own! I knew I'd heard that kind of tone somewhere..so on a hunch tried a stock factory Kemper profile JC120 SM57 with a quarter note delay single repeat, and there you go! Middle pup on a strat. Light or medium pick.The other tones are easier to find for the chorusy bridge part and overdrive tone for the solo. There's just no way I would have been able to get this before!

I actually got an email from the man himself!
It's a trick I did with my delay. I had a digital delay so I could set it the same on every gig.Set a single delay pretty much as loud as the original signal to the second beat in a triplet over the fast 4 tempo of the song.So if you strike a single note on beat one the single repeat would be on the 2nd quaver (8th note) in beat 2.All I play is 2 3 & 4 playing a G and C on the 5th fret to G and B then back up to G and C for the 3 beats, and leave beat 1 empty and let the delay do the rest. I do damp it quite a lot tooIf memory serves the length of the delay is around 460 ms. That's with the tempo of the song at about 200 bpm.Sounds complicated, but I promise you that's how I did it.Would be much easier to demonstrate! Maybe I'll put something on youtube?!Thanks for your interest.All best wishes,Robbie McIntosh

So a little trick revealed!

Just via his website http://www.robbiemcintosh.com but I really did not expect a reply, but there you go. I hope he gets around to getting on YouTube for a few of those classic songs and sounds he came up with!

Another email form Robbie confirms it was a 3/16th note delay or dotted 8th note that does the trick..I tried this with 0% feedback to get one repeat, matched the volume so that delay is same volume and that's it nailed!!
