    Synths in U2

    so recently Im becoming more and more interested in synthesizers and sound designs, trying to buy some affordable yet flexible synths like Korg MS20 or something. even Mother 32? my friend is talking about buying one, anyway, so I know U2 has been messing with synth for long time. and I know...

    Apparently Axe-8 is in Edge's rig

    according to admin of Axe-Fx forum (probably a dude who's working for Fracral audio) says that Edge has an Axe-8. he didnt really specify how he's using that unit. i sort of assume it's for rehearsal and such, not for the actual tour but i think it's interesting.

    affordable FA-1 clone?

    FP-10 - valeton I've found this in website of Valeton, the pedal company from Asia (I assume it's from China but i don't know too much about it) and i found this seemingly Boss Fa-1 clone. I know there are tons of boost pedal these days, from super clean boost to very flexible, almost EQ-like...

    Rickenbacker pickups - can anyone inform about them?

    I don't know too much about Rickenbacker tho i've been a fan of Edge and following his rig for quite a while; it seems very niche in a guitar community and not a lot of people use them, it seems like. Even if they do, they eventually stop using them, like Johnny Marr (actually he stopped using...

    Edge's Goldtop

    So on this tour I'm sure Edge does not use gold top and he doesn't even carry one. but I am now wondering about his godltop les paul. so when i went to this music store a while ago (pretty sure it was like a month or 2 months ago) i saw this gold top Les Paul made in 80s. the tag said it's...

    Edge's gear in the 80s (especially late 80s)

    I know, i know, it's probably discussed before. But what's Edge's gear in the 80s, especially after JT? you know, the time when U2 became superstars and such. I see bunch of pics depicting Edges gear setup in the early 80s, up to War era. basically 2 guitars, couple of MMs, and vox amps. but as...

    compressors. do you guys use them? how does Edge use them?

    Compressor is an interesting effect. people say it's essential, some say it's unnecessary. I used to think it's unnecessary. despite of the fact that my multi effect has 3 comp model (dyna comp model, Boss CS-2 model and one that's made by Digitech), I almost never used them until recently...

    Fender Professional — yay or nay?

    So, now Fender replaced American Standard with American Professional, which also come with some feature changes. Also, this time, the American Pro series include Jazzmaster and Jaguar, not only strats and telecasters.I think you can read about all kinds of feature changes from this blog from...

    Strymon releasing distortion pedals? Oh no

    Riverside - Multistage Drive - Distortion Pedal - Strymon So........there it is. I never expected them to release distortion pedals as they said they focus on developing digital pedals. However, they went for semi-analog circuits, where digital controls are used to set parameters. I am...

    Edge and Marshall

    So, at this point of my Edge-fandom, I know he's mostly used Vox, Fender (and Randall from the late 80s to the entirety of 90s), amp-wise. He mostly relies on Vox to get his majestic clean tones and he incorporate some Fender here and there, especially when he goes for "rock" sounds with good...

    VIP Pass

    So I have this "VIP pass" thing by my name area. And though I tried to look at FAQs and all that, I can't really find anything about it. Do you know what that really is? Sorry for posting thing like this FYI; I have looked at the existing thread asking about VIP passes but the links provided in...

    Off-set Guitars?

    Now Im getting more and more interested in off-set Fender guitars and their copies (like Jazzmaster and Jaguar) as they seem to have very unique quality compared to strat/LP or their derivatives and they are used by tons of my fave guitar players like Nels Cline, guys from Sonic Youth, Johnny...

    wah pedal on IE tour

    These days, i barely talk about Edge-specific thing on this forum, partially because i don't attend/participate in any other gear-related pages so i end up asking general rig questions. should i join the gear page for that? i don't know about that. anyway, this is the first Edge-rig question i...

    Whammy in regular pedal size? oh no

    Apparently Digitech is releasing the whammy pedal in regular pedal size: here's the demo I always thought that it's kinda waste to buy a gigantic Whammy pedal just for some effect that I can't seem to use; I want to experiment but buying 200 buck pedal just to do that is kinda wasteful, it...

    always-on pedal?

    I realize that lots of people have one of those pedal that's always on for tonal reasons. can be TS-type pedal (especially common amongst strat players, and these people hate active pups. how ironic). it can be chorus/flange even, to fatten up the sound (possibly make it sound like they're...

    Noise issue

    Finally, I will ask about Edge's rig, not just Joe Bonamassa's random pedal. I have realized that despite the fact that Edge does use plenty of guitars with single coil pickups (strats, teles, casino, etc), I don't hear too much noise/60-cycle hum from his guitar during shows. it's true not...

    Dumble distortion — is there any value to this?

    I know i should have account about gear somewhere but i feels like i trust you guys more....and finally I'm posting relevant to gear. So i recently see tons of pedals that claim to reproduce "Dumble tone." I know Edge never uses that kind of amp that's as expensive as an average house but Edge...

    Edge being a member of Fender BOD....what so what?

    So it's been a while since Edge (and random guy in sunglasses named Bono) became a part of Fender's BOD. we kinda got excited to see what's gonna happen out of that changes. But as a result, I don't see much changes in Fender as a company. they still endorsee Eric and Jeff, and companies are...

    NAMM news

    I know this board in general has to be U2 related so forgive me if this thread becomes less about gear not usable for U2-related music. So Namm 2016 is close. This NAMM should be bit special for us as Edge sig models will be announced. Plus, there are tons of cool pedals/guitars/any...
