Comfortably numb tone.....

[Nevada240]

Can anybody help me with the tone to comfortably numb? What effects he's using to the main theme and the first and second solos? Thanks

Strat, Fender amp, an OD.

Check out Kit Raes site! If your trying to nail Gilmours tone, Kits site is my favorite. He covers so much ground with pedal displays and demos.

Gilmour used a Colorsound Power Booster----RAMS Head Big Muff----Electric Mistress---MXR Delay.

Here is a pretty close tone using a XTS Tejas Boost---XTS Precision Overdrive----Hartman Flanger----El Capistan.

No Alembic pre-amp? Pulse version through Fane Crescendo As, The Wall version through Fance Crescendo As and what ever in those rotaries.
For the PULSE version, you hear

CS2>Sovtek Civil War Mufff, BKB Tube Driver (boost)>CE2 on right amp>MXR Delay II 650MS, Doppolas

For the Gdansk version

Demeter Comp
Pete Cornish P1
BKTD
MXR Delay

Into 2 Hiwatt DR103's.

Wall Version:

MXR Dynacomp
1973 Rams' Head
1976 Electric Mistress
MXR System ONE (not the 2 he currently has) Delay

into Hiwat and Yamaha RA50

If you want to get the tone simply and cheaply,

CS2/Rat/TS9/CE2/DD2

One of the keys is a crystal clear amp with no OD. It needs to be clean. The drive is from the pedals. The CE2 has a midboost which is apparent in the PULSE version.

Job done.

Two of the cabs used on the Division Bell tour were Marshall 1960s. Those would have Celestions in them...
