AboutAndy Expertise I am very familar with all sorts of questions pertaining sublime and the groups members.Whether it be about brad's songs,tattoos,guitars,amp,recordings,there isn't much i can't answer,and if i am not able i am willing to research until i can find one.

Question I was woundering if you could tell me what kind of guitar effects brad used and also what vocal effects were used.
thanx
Answer Sure man,.,.,for guitar effects he ran a boss dd-3 digital delay,reverb(through the triple rectifier),a boss overdrive,once in a while live he'd have a wah..not often though.Lots of times he just used the reverb and the red channel on the triple rec for distortion.Effects really were limited live...some times he'd pawn shit off before/after shows,,,so you never really knew what to expect with brad!!
Ok.,.for vocals it's minimalist as well.,,reverb and delay..that's it.His voice was that good that the delay just echo'd off so well.On some of the earlier albums he also has some compression on the vocals to tighten things up...live though it was mainly just the delay.
Hope this helps out mike.,.take care and have a nice weekend man.,,.andy=}
