Great comment and we can help but just for now here`s David Gilmour`s set up for around 1970-2, an awesome period in his career especially with the Live at Pompei Performance. It`s Strat based of course ! Guitars - 1966-67 all stock Fender Stratocaster with a white alder body, white pickguard and a rosewood 4-bolt neck with a large headstock. - Fender Telecaster of unknown date with natural brown body, white pickguard and a maple neck. - 1969 all stock Fender Stratocaster with a black alder body, white pickguard and a rosewood 4-bolt neck with a large headstock. - Gibson J-45 acoustic steel string Amps - 3 Hiwatt DR103 All Purpose 100W heads with Mullard 4xEL34’s power tubes and 4xECC83’s pre-amp tubes. Controls for normal volume, brilliance volume, bass, middle, treble, presence and master. - 3 WEM Super Starfinder 200 cabinets with 4×12” Fane Crescendo speakers with metal dust caps. Effects - Vox wah wah - Dallas Arbiter Fuzz Face (NKT275) - Binson Echorec II TO change the tonal character of your Gibson try different pick ups. Maybe look out for a tokai stratocaster, or another strat clone. For the Gilmour sound look at adding some delay, a little bit of chorus , a drop of reverb and some good licks. Mondo!

Is it even possible without spending £1000's? I have a Les Paul copy that sounds sweet as, (should be a strat but I just feel more comfy on a LP) that I hook up to a Marshall MG15 amp and a MG30 when I have noise space. Can you recommend some sweet, fool proof, must have peddles/stomps to get me some killer DG tone?? Would be cool if you guys could give me a shuv in the right direction. -mondo Is there any way I can get Wish You Were Here/Dark Side Of The Moon Gilmour guitar sound on a budget?

Last count I had seven dead effects units and that was just from a couple of years in one band. Great. So it`s worth pointing out that if you play in a fiercely proto-pyrotechnic punk rock environment with flying beer, flying people and god knows what else buy pedals that are sturdy and crafted from tough metal...or concrete. I lost a tooth from a flying bass guitar once and that was just at a rehearsal. I have included a shot of my work set up. Under my desk I run a Boss Drive Zone OD20, BOSS RC20XL Loop station, and a Line 6 Echo Park into a small line 6 amp set to the clean channel. I have the option to run out in stereo into the Marshall Valvestate VS230 to the side of my desk. <a href="http://jamorama.com" rel="nofollow">For live and recording in the studio I run two Session Amps in stereo</a> and I usually go straight in with an overdrive pedal or a delay. Nothing fancy. Perhaps the greatest thing about effects pedals is stomping them into an early grave and building up a small graveyard of dead ones.
