I got it from somebody who got it from Whitford.
From everything I have ever read, they have always used small tube amps. Cranked Champs,(tweed and blackface) Princetons, Deluxes etc.
It is sad that Doug Fieger is dead. The Knack were a great bad, despite their sexist songs.My friend, the late Doug Fieger, told me that when his band “The Knack” was doing a record that Jack produced, he followed Jack to the Men’s toilet cause he wanted to know what Jack was doing that made him so damn happy... well... it was Heroin.. and Doug got into it for a while... I wish it had let him live longer, but Dougie had 22 brain tumours. He fought it for 3 1/2 years before he passed.. I miss my friend!
Joe did and does favor the Talk box for sure as I have seen him use it so many times live . Darn , this makes me miss seeing them live ! Maybe someday I have to get to one of them residency shows in Vegas , which would be a fine ole good time all around !not sure about the amp but i can guarantee you this is the talk box
Dude, seriously? I don't think there was a top ten hit in the 70's that wasn't sexist. Ok, maybe the Carpenters...It is sad that Doug Fieger is dead. The Knack were a great bad, despite their sexist songs.
Tom Hamilton played a Stingray Bass on Draw The Line and Night In The Ruts. So I can understand why they would use Music Man equipment.Ive read that amongst other amps, the band were also using MusicMan during this period. They were very popular at that time and I seem to remember Clapton was one of those using them.
Ive used them as rentals at blues festivals, and if Aerosmith did use them I can understand why.
I read that as well but for Walk this Way. OP asked about sweet emotion. That I can’t help with!100-watt Marshall with 6550 power tubes. Guitar was a Les Paul Jr.
Edited to add that the above was for the rythm track. The solo near the end of the tune was a Strat.
