    Max Frank caught up with Aaron Turner, Brian Cook, and Nick Yacyshyn of SUMAC at their show at Saint Vitus Bar, to talk about the band's current touring rigs, and how they differ from what the members use in ISIS, Old Man Gloom, Russian Circles, and Baptists.

    Aaron: I've been playing guitar for a really long time. I'm very picky about what I use. I use all this super specific guitar stuff because I like its sound and I have a bromance with the guy who makes it.
    Brian: This is my bass, I use a couple effects for shenanigans, this is a bass amp.
    Nick: Here's some Drums, half of it's Broken.

      Construction matters more than what woods are used, like set neck vs bolt on. But you can notice subtle differences between woods when played clean. If you're just going to play with any amount of overdrive, it's negligible.

    A question regarding two amp setup and Strymon Deco pedal. As I understand then he uses ( in this case) Orange amp as main distortion and it also goes to other side to Fryette poweramp. So how can you connect Strymon Deco pedal for that doubling effect he talks about. In what part of chain would it fit in

    • @xbreathingisirrelevantx
      @xbreathingisirrelevantx 5 років тому +1

      He may have the Deco running between the preamp out of the Orange and the input of the power amp? Idk not very clear on his end tbh

    • @brandonelmore1174
      @brandonelmore1174 2 роки тому

      I believe he runs the deco in between the main amps send then into the power amp . So as best as I can tell the deco feeds out then into a volume pedal he uses to fade the second amp in and out
