Hey! So, I'm getting a bit obsessed with that crazy old tweed deluxe sound, the one that's all buzzy. It's mostly due to the solo in this song. Also, Neil Young.

So, I know nothing of pedals that make this sound. Doesn't catalinbread have one? IDK! Help me out, make suggestions, thank you in advance.

'This is the worst vacation ever, I'm going to cut open your forehead with a roofing single.' Is my favourite song lyric. Need to get that inked.

A friend of mine got Xiu Xiu and Jarboe to contribute vocals for an album of his, and he was afraid to listen to both for like two months.kbithecrowing wrote:I need to listen to more Xiu Xiu.

I've got a Formula No. 5 and it's okaaaaay. Not as boxy as the deluxe sound to my ears, but definitely the same blown out buzzy thing going at high gain. I gave it to my friend to play baritone through and he sounds like the coming apocalypse with it.
I also tried the following:
Nick Greer Ghetto Stomp - owned this
Lovepedal Something or Other - tried this in a shop
Some Other Lovepedal - as above
and didn't really like them. No sustain, weird low-freq intermodulation. Later, when I started learning how to roll my own pedals, I found out that they are all the same circuit and I was a sad little boy.

Dude, Xiu Xiu rules. "There is no right, there is no wrong. So why care? There is only wrong."
but so, I was already interested in the formula 5. Neat.
