Stevie Ray Vaughan Discussion

i got these settings awhile back from my friend Jess Davey of the Hoax (who IMO has one of the closest sounding SRV tones ever). I edited it a little bit because my question to him was originally for recoring purposes.

here is his response:

"Hey Vince How ya doing?
This is just what I would do.
Start with a set of GHS Low tune strings, Action set so you can fit a quater under the 10th fret. Use a long lead 20' at least to the tube screamer, set the tube screamer Gain-9 O'clock Tone-10 O'clock Volume-1 O'clock. Go into the Vibrato channel of the Super, bright switch on, Trebble 9, Middle 7, Bass 3.5.
Volume tune up without the tubescreamer on till it breaks up, normally about 5-8.
I hope this works out for you??
All the best.
Jesse"

hope this helps!
