I would be lying if I said the purchase of my jaguar wasn't at least a little inspired by Carl Wilson.

I think the only time this happened was when I bought a Boss DS-1 because of Kurt Cobain. I was 11.

Got a Big Muff and a Vox Wah because of J. Bought a Maestro ps1 A phaser about 4 years ago because of Smashing Pumpkins' Plume. Bought a Fuzzface to cop Little Miss Strange and SWLABR toanz. But then I started to really scrutinize all those purchase-inspiring tones" how could I approximate these sounds,but add to/enhance them,thus surpassing their"limitations'?" And that was that

I just bought a 5e3 style amp last week because of my love for Neil Young. Cortez the Killer is literally one of the greatest dirty tones ever.

Bought a Big Muff because of the 1990s, (MBV, Dinosaur Jr, Pumpkins, Mudhoney and everyone else), a tremolo because of "How Soon Is Now" which is still the only Smiths song I even like but is one of the greatest things I've ever heard, a DL4 and Loopstation because of TV on the Radio, and searched for years to get my bass to sound like the synth on "Army of Me" by Bjork. I've finally accomplished that 15 year search with an ABSynth.
