|  |     Toy Caldwell played an ES335 variant almost exclusively.
    When I saw him play last he had a Boogie amp (combo).
    He's got a smokin' sound!  Also, fwiw - he doesn't use a pick.

|  | Caldwell, tele/twin...
Hmmm,,, every time I've seen him, it's been with a Les Paul....
And if ya ask me, the sound, as I recall, is very Paul sounding,
not much tele-bite there at all....  plus, he doesn't use a pick,
it's all done with his thumb..  even cooler huh ???
stp....  couldn't tell ya...

| 2986.3 | thumbs up | RICKS::CALCAGNI | There's no money to be made above the 5th fret | Tue Oct 04 1994 08:12 | 3 | 
|  |     I never realized he used his thumb, but it makes sense now;
    no doubt it helps him get that "velvet hammer" tone!

|  |     I like the way his amp sounds in the recording, like they musta miked
    it with him in small room?  Nice ambience.

    I've see tucker several times and Caldwell "always" played
    a less-paul...

|  |     Another old-time Tucker fan checking in here.  Last I saw them (which
    was at least 10 years ago!) he was using a paul and a boogie.

| 2986.7 | Pat Metheny sounds | RHETT::LINCE |  | Thu Nov 10 1994 12:38 | 6 | 
|  |     Ok - How does Pat Metheny get his sound (I've heard lexicon PCM-60)
    any specifics? Also, does anyone have any samples of the "synth horn"
    sound he uses? (I know it's a synclavier --- has anyone sampled it
    to a different format?)

|  |     PCM-60 ... doubt it.  If my memory is serving me, the PCM-60 is 
    a cheesy "preset" type reverb unit.  Not many fx to be had out 
    of that puppy.

    Yeah, it's a preset only dedicated reverb unit, but I wouldn't call it
    cheezy.  I have one and it consistantly sounds great!
    
    If you mean a programmable multieffects unit, the Lex PCM-70 might fit
    the bill, but I can't imagine anyone using one live, that's a studio
    beastie.  Maybe a Lex Prime Time...
