Linde's sound is absolutely huge!
Love that sound!
Oh my god this video is an absolute gem! Excellent information about how his setup is run, and I love how they explain which specific parts of songs these tones are from! Interesting to see Linde has ditched the Octafuzz and gone for a dedicated Octaver and Pharaoh Fuzz. Very clever stuff though with activating different tones through different cabinets, and the phasing used :) It's so simple for Linde on stage, yet so complicated in the background... Geniuses.
I've been spending ages trying to nail his tone, and been using a Line 6 POD X3 Live, with Gibson SG and Laney LV300H (planning to upgrade to all to an all valve Laney Ironeart 120w soon) to get most of the characteristics and layering that he has. I run 2 channels simultaneously, one with a high gain channel and fuzz that can we stomped on/off when needed, while running a second bassier and gritter channel, with an octaver on it, but I run that 2nd channel on a 30ms pre delay so it blends into that low heavy 'oomf' sound with the fuzz on. Still not the real deal, but it sounds very close!
Yes I'm yapping on, but this videos about his setup anyway, so it seems appropriate to talk about my own attempt. Absolutely amazing guitarist though, love his tone and play style and he was actually the guy to influence me to first pick up a guitar about 10 years ago :)
LazersCollection hes a amazing guitarist and songwriter, he got me to pick up the guitar too 7 yrs ago
Go for a Laney gh100l or gh50l instead, it's the lead Channel of the Vh100r (lindes Amp) in a single channel amp and a lot cheaper.
I'll be putting my Pharaoh fuzz back in my rig!
Thanks! Great video 👍🏻
Glad i find this, now spending on a 15k rig

Thanks so much for giving us a backstage view on Linde’s sound!
What bridge pickup is Linde using btw?
Gibson 500t.
Hi! Will you planning gear rundown for Tour of the Middle Aged 2015? You know I'm just wondering if Linde using for clean sound (Gone with the sin or In Joy and Sorrow) some kind of guitar compressor or regular clean sound again.
Petr Kovačka Hi there! He is using Mad Professor Underdrive-pedal to get his clean sound from Laney gain channel, no clean channel from amp needed. I think it sounds great.

So since this was not so straight foward as i thought i would understand it.. here is what i came up with or i did understand what his setup is (with other video sources too)
maybe i'm right maybe i'm completely off the rails somewhere... correct me if i'm wrong somewhere....
4 Channels (all distortion or Crunch)
1 Mic'd Cabinet (Audio Technica 4050) the other 3 are DI's (Radial JDX)
Cabinet 1 and 2 is Main Sound (the tops ones)
Cabinet 3 MXR Booster/Linedriver Octave Multiplexer (bottom left)
Cabinet 4 Black Arts Toneworks Pharaoh Fuzz and Octave Multiplexer (bottom right)
All Cabinets are Laney 4x12" (200W i guess?)
Only 2 at a time are played (but they can blend all 4)
1st Distorted channel (top left) Laney VH100R (1 Mic'd Cabinet Audio Technica 4050)
2nd Distorted channel (top right) Laney VH100R (Radial JDX)
3rd Distorted Channel (bottom left) Laney VH100R + MXR Booster/Line Driver & EHX Octave Multiplexer (Radial JDX)
4th Distorted Channel (bottom right) Laney VH100R + Black Arts Toneworks Pharaoh Fuzz & EHX Octave Multiplexer (Radial JDX)
Over all Channels Stereo Imager to widen the sound
Dunlop CryBaby Bass Wah (for Solos)
ISP Decimator II (on all Channels because it makes a lot of noise without them)

What type of pedal is that the one with two pharos on it with a yellow body
+Kalvita Latvala en.customsounds.fi/black-arts-toneworks-pharaoh-fuzz.html
I wonder what tubes he uses and speakers?
All Cabinets are Laney 4x12"
can you tell me the exact type of guitar he has?
Oh crap, too expensive but thanks for the information
The neck pickup is the stock Gibson 490R or '57 Classic depending on which guitar, due to varying years. He's not too worried about the neck pickup since he never plays on it. The bridge pickups are always Seymour Duncan SH-5 or Gibson 500T. Just a high-output ceramic pickup in any SG will do the trick.
