Andy Cairns’ Gear

My amps were just Marshall JMP100s. Pedals-wise, I’ve always used Boss - I bought them all when I was 17 and they’re still going, so I can’t really fault them - and we added the Colorsound pedals for a bit more bite. The thing about the Colorsounds is they’re basic. On the beginning of Tightrope Walker I started playing the riff and picked up this American radio station through the pedal. Left if on, though. They’re great; they only make one sound - kkkkkkkhhhhh! - but it’s a great kkkkkkhhhhhhh!

‘For live work and the bulk of studio work I use my black Gibson SG, just straight off the factory line. It’s very power chord-y - good for stuff like Screamager, Nowhere - but I’ve also got this cherry ‘63 through more. And Chris Sheldon also lent me this beautiful early- ’70s Fender Tele Deluxe - so solid, not that thin, almost transistor-y sound I find you get from a lot of Teles. There’s also a Jaguar on a few tracks.

‘What I really want, though, is a good Les Paul. In my head, when I hear a Les Paul I hear Appetite For Destruction, Generation Terrorists or Never Mind The Bollocks, but whenever I play them they sound like Soup Dragons b-sides, this tinny, non-descript indie fizz. I’m one of these people who’s probably played every type of Les Paul ever made and they all sound shite. And James from the Manics, who’s a mate of mine, is one of these lucky bastards; he told me ‘I just walked into the shop and there it was!’ I was, like, ‘no you didn’t, you spent hours in shops searching for that, you specky little twerp!’ I’ve had no luck with them,’ Cairns sobs, ‘and I don’t know why!’

Thanx, I’ll keep that in mind!

Kinda hard to practice right now ‘cause I’ve just some things which you would call skool (i’m tired of life… today)

Two things you could try:

#1. An effects pedal
#2. Rather then bending the notes, just vibrate your hand. It’s hard to describe what you need to do, but basically you can just keep your one finger on the fret board, and move your hand at the wrist to create the vibrato sound.

Andy uses a Boss HM-2, well he used too
