Weezer "Pinkerton"
Who else loves the sound of this record? I'm curious about the distorted rhythm guitars...is it just LP-->Marshall or what?

Re: Weezer "Pinkerton"
Yeah, I love this album much as well. I think it's the big drum and dirty bass sounds that I like the best. I remember reading an old Guitar World interview with Rivers where he said that it was mostly Les Pauls into Marshalls with a Big Muff on some things. He said that some of the more fuzzy lead sounds were a distortion pedal (I dunno which one) into a Big Muff into a Marshall.curtiswyant wrote:Who else loves the sound of this record?

i remember joe barresi recorded some of it, and he certainly added or at least strengthened the sound of the guitars, since he knows quite a bit from being a player himself, as well as having worked with some great guitar rock bands a handful of years before, like kyuss for example!
its certainly my fave weezer record.

There is a very raw quality to Pinkerton. It's my favorite Weezer record too. There are several engineers listed, but no specifics as to who did what. Dave Fridman is listed and I've always assumed he recorded "Tired of Sex" just by the tone of it.
