Try something like a Boss Fz2 for this. Altough Reznor does a lot of studio fucker and feedback patterns for his sound too, so there's that. He also does a lot of fuzz guitar plugged straight into console and then filtered/eq'd to bits.

Yeah, I figured post processing played a big part of that sound, but would an FZ-2 give the same texture? And which mode?

Lavacable stuff is a little less than half the George L stuff.

Good to know!!! I found some used George L's but next time, I'll buy Lavacable.

Are there any "one stomp" effects loop switchers? For example, if you want to switch from effect loop 1 to loop 3, you just stomp on 3? (and loop 1 is automatically deactivated?) Having to turn off a loop, then turn another one on is a hassle. In other words, I want **only one loop at a time** or the ability to select that.

That's what it sounds like to me. Also, putting distortion plugins on DI guitars, e.g. iZotope Trash which I think he was quoted using around this time.

Gigrig G2 and I believe the Boss MS- series should do this

Shit got shittier in my neighborhood I'm scared fucking burglars break into my house and steal my beloved Jazzmaster. I think I'll get a fucking affinity strat until I move and keep my JM at someone else's place.

For the price of an affinity strat, you can get renters insurance which can cover all your belongings in the event of theft/disaster

edit: oooops sorry, see youre in Tijuana, not sure how insurance is there

LOL!

Never thought of renters insurance actually, but pretty sure it will be crap if that even exists over here, and my landlord is not being helpful.

Thank you! Will head to my nearest GC hoping I don't see some nice deals or that jetglo 330 I've been dreaming with.

They're so worth it. Not a single thing in this world can come close to replicating a Rick, and boy do they sound so fuckin sweet.

You might look into a heavy-duty security door, if you can afford it and are allowed to modify your door. There's also the option of hiding mini GPS sensors in your stuff, in the event of theft. ----Personally I like trap doors and cages, but that's probably not an option for you.

Although your best bet may just be to keep your gear somewhere safer (as you said), if you're away from your apartment much of the time.

[Inconuucl]

Naw son, you can't just add a heavy door and call it a day, that actually makes it worse. You either have to go all out or nothing.

That's a smart one! Will look into those traps/cages mmm. Thank you sir.

My neighbor just got robbed when he was getting out of his house, tied the whole family down while they took their TVs and shit. I guess the only thing they could take is my guitar, I don't think they are into pedals and 2x12 amps lol
