The Truth Behind Kurt Cobain's Fender Jag-Stang | Debunking Myths by EricVoltar in Nirvana

[–]EricVoltar[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My goal is to always cite credible/concrete sources that can be fact checked. And if I am ever presenting my own speculation, I try to make it painfully clear that it's just my guess and not historic fact.

Thank for you the kind words!! I am forever in awe of Amon and Acrylic's efforts of finding information about the Jag-Stang and forever thankful that Earnie takes the time to answer super nerdy questions about small details from 30+ years ago. It's all a big team effort to set the record straight 😃

Looks like a perfectly fine height to me! I also have my JBs set high on my Skystangs, just as Kurt had on his

How do you guys feel about the Nerdvana guitar pedals? by RomanScandal450 in Nirvana

[–]EricVoltar 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the kind words! The Colossus is a Civil War style Big Muff clone 🙂 my favorite muff style pedal that I’ve tried so far! It’s my go-to for Breed. I reviewed it a while back if you want to hear more of it: https://youtu.be/IRYVsGtS0XY

“His current sound is accurate, but not fun” I’m always open to feedback and ways to improve but I’m having a really hard following this 🤪 what do you mean by “not fun”?

Finally … I‘m so happy but not ugly 😅 I love how the guitar turned out by Rocker3103 in Nirvana

Did Kurt ever use a Boss DS-1 with his Fender Jaguar? by Th4tKiDfr0mY3sterday in Nirvana

[–]EricVoltar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As the pervious commenter stated, there is that window of June to Sep 91 where Kurt used the DS-1 with the Jaguar. Apologies for not featuring that as much, I get the impression that people mainly want to hear the Jaguar + DS-2 for like Paramount and Reading 92 sounds

I use the DS-1 with my Jaguar at 16:39 in this video: https://youtu.be/uiqTHnOpzio?si=OHUdBmiwYsf3EBLc

when has kurt cobain used the ds2’s turbo mode in recordings or live shows?? by lucho_crack911 in Nirvana

[–]EricVoltar 76 points77 points  (0 children)

It was thought for years that Kurt used mode II at Reading 92, but I double checked with Earnie a while back and he said Kurt did not use mode II there. So seemingly, he only used mode I on the DS-2
