So did anybody else have a point where one specific song inspired them to buy a certain effect?

I remember I just had to go buy my first wah when I heard Tales of Brave Ulysses by Cream.

Definitely when I got the Smashing Pumpkins Vieuphoria VHS in like 7th grade and saw the "Slunk" live performance. Immediately afterwards I BEGGED my parents for a wah and a fuzz. Rocked that shit through my 20 watt Crate.

YES. SLUNK. Good call.

not really an effect, but i bought myself an early 90s marshall head back when i first heard the california crossing by fu machu

Decided to get a Jaguar Baritone after hearing Thrice's Fire record from the Alchemy Index...haven't looked back since!

Shit is indeed mad heavy. What kinda jag baritone you got?

SOMEONE SHOULD EXPLAIN TO ME WHY I DON¨T ALREADY LISTEN TO THRICE, BECAUSE THIS SHIT IS THE SHIT

anyway... i bought Boss PH-2 after listening to Incubus it's still THE favourite phaser for me

i can't think of anything else

thanks for the advice

Radiohead's Exit Music for a Film made me want a Chunky Cheese (well a Big Cheese was used on the track [bass guitar], but those are seemingly rare and expensive,...the CC is a good facsimile).

After listening to a few QOTSA records I bought a fuzz pedal....

i own Yamaha SPX90 and Alesis MidiVerb II rackmount reverb/delay units which i bought specifically because their backwards reverbs are used on My Bloody Valentine songs. the Yamaha's reverse Early Reflection setting is all over the You Made Me Realise EP--you can hear the clatter of the reflections when the room size setting is maxed at the beginning of "Slow"--and the MidiVerb's swirling, soupy Bloom patches supply crucial atmosphere to parts of Loveless and its associated EPs.

I don't understand the technology, but I know exactly what you're talking about.

Yeah, yeah, yeahs and Don Cabellero made me enter the world of looping. Got a DL-8 now I have a Headrush E2.

Oh and by the way... i can think of a lot of songs that inspire me to buy a certain guitar
