My version of David Gilmour tone for Comfortably Numb

  • Been trying to get my translation of David Gilmour's tone for Comfortably Numb's solos. My favourite to work with was Reeves Custom 100 by Davide.
    I kind of cheated by placing 2 drive pedals before my Kemper though:


    1. Electronic Orange Pig Hoof (Big Muff)
    2. Blackstone Appliances MOSFET Overdrive (Boost/OD)


    However, all the other effects such as the compressor, flanger, rotary sim, delay and reverb were Kemper's built-ins and I just used their presets for this tone.


    I know the audio constantly drops and the recording volume was way too high, but quality-wise, this is the best I can get out of my laptop.


    Hope you enjoy it.

  • Pretty hot tone @tonyfunc :thumbup:


    Feeling very comfortably numb after that. Do you recon I could use my EHX English Muff to get that overdrive sound?


    BTW that dog does look dog tired - after a long walk? ;)


    Thank you very much!


    I honestly think any Big Muff pedals should work. However if you get a chance, give Electronic Orange Pig Hoof a try - it's the best I've ever tried. Placing a transparent boost pedal behind it works really well too.


    I have no idea whose dog that is - found the photo on the internet and LOVED it :)
