I don't know so I ask to you:
as a big fan of the early Ventures,would like to know what kinda effect they used in tunes like the beginning of"slaughter on 10 th avenue",may be something from Mosrite ? I saw posted some pictures of Mosrite pedals but don't know anything about it.
thanx :twisted:

Bruno,
I believe that the only effect that Nokie used on "S.o.T.A." was just reverb. But the guitars were Mosrites..... :mrgreen:

There's definitely no Fuzzrite on Slaughter On Tenth Avenue!
A Fuzzrite is pretty distinctive....like a flatulent wasp with a chainsaw driving a motorcycle into a woodchipper. :twisted:

Isn't there a fuzz guitar overdub in the last verse of Slaughter on Tenth Avenue? Or maybe my cassette copy of the song has just seen better days.

I don't recall an "overdub fuzz track" on Slaughter, but I might be thinking of the "Ventures on Stage" Track :roll: .

Either that Mel, or you blew the crap out of your speakers
on the last Verse of "Slaughter." :mrgreen:

I probably did blow the speakers, but I'm thinking of the studio version with the organ/sax, not the live version. No fuzz on that.

I just listened to 'Slaughter'. There is some kinda fuzz being used on the second guitar which is playing the bass line in the beginning/1st verse, but the lead is clean. On the last couple verses it sounds like the lead guitar is dirtier than it was in the beginning - just the amp being driven? :|

Vincent had posted a thread where we could actually listen to ANY TUNE by the Ventures.
