can you do a tone of my favorite live show nirvana nulle part ailleurs 1994?
Yo so there some bootleg tapes on eBay of every single show that Kurt played at
Can you dookie album and that tuning is sky stang
My favorite part of this show among many, his epic Breed leap, and the statue beheading. Is when Kurt pauses Pennyroyal Tea at "I'm on..." And someone in the crowd yells "You're on CRACK!" I always wondered why Kurt laughed! 😂
So many great moments 😂
He said "You're a prick"
my favourite youtuber honestly can’t get better quality than this
That is an honor!! Thank you for the kind words 🙏
I was at this show. The Breeders opened up the night, then Cypress Hill came out. I was 15 years old I got an invite to go from the Nirvana fan club. Here I am 30 years later 45 years old and still a massive fan. RIP Kurt
I'm so glad you paid attention to the fact the DOD Grunge pedal was used throughout the show. I first noticed it in a brief scene in the Endless Nameless MV. If you go to 9:09 at 1.25 playback speed, you can catch a glimpse of Kurt's hand moving away from that pedal. This means he used it for the Live and loud show. Also please to a part of the video on Endless Nameless. In my opinion it's one of Nirvana's hidden gems. I can't wait to see this awesome video! Thank you for your awesome content!
30 years ago today Live And Loud took place. Had the tv airing on a vhs I “borrowed” from a classmate and would watch and rewind and watch again and again. Kurt’s guitar on Scentless Apprentice is bad ass specially that middle part full of crazy bends and sounds.
This is the big one guys, live and loud.
Can’t wait to watch it all
this was the first full concert i ever watched of nirvana's, i fell in love with the guitar tones, the stage decor, it then turned me to in utero, it became my favourite concert and favourite nirvana era of all time, hearing this tone being done so accurately made my day, its so AWESOME MAN!
At first, I thought The Paramount was my favourite live performance from Nirvana. Then I actually decided to watch all of Live And Loud and wow, it just blew me away. The guitar tone is amazing, there are so many great moments (R.I.P. In Utero angel) and the vibe itself is just epic. I can't describe it, but it really speaks to me. This video itself is actually amazing and I love watching your stuff, especially videos like this!!! Keep it up, man.
much waited for thanks for finally making it i’m sure it took a lot of work but it was worth it in the end tone sounds absolutely amazing
Thank you for your patience and for watching!! I feel bad that it took this long, this has been requested for such a long time. But I'm very happy with how it came out 😃
Can’t wait!! 😋
These recreations never cease to amaze, man, I still have a lot of respect for the research you do and I’m definitely gonna check out this concert because I’ve always wanted to see it but never got around to it. Great as always, msn, keep it up
Finally! This is my favorite show of the in utero era, thanks Eric amazing as always!
I just know this is going to be amazingly spot on!
Thank you for being apart of the priemere, and for the continued support! I don't take it for granted 😃
You should do the Hollywood rock 1993! This is one of my favorite performances they did.
I may or may not be putting hot rails back in my comp stang 😉 That'd be a perfect show to try for after that is done!
I'm really excited about this one and i know for a fact it's gonna be great as expected💛🖤💛
You should make a history of kurt cobains jaguar
Love the tone it’s really helpful for my Nirvana obsession to cause I could never find that perfect tone and you help a lot thank you @NirvanaGuitars
If you ever get a phase 1 custom hi flier you have to do buenos Aires 1992. Awesome show!
I love your channel bro! Being a Nirvana nut myself and a guitar player for now 25 years, I seriously appreciate your knowledge and dedication to recreating all things guitar de la Kurt
The lithium tone is just spot on dude good job and all the other toned are amazing
This is an amazing tone reaction it sounds exactly like the record nice job!🤟🤟🤟
No it doesn't
This man demands respect for his craft he is very informative and knows what's he's talking about he's quickly becoming my fav CZcams account by far thanks for all your hard work and information
this is probably my favorite nirvana video of all time!
By far the most underrated CZcamsr 🎸🤘🏼
MASTERFUL as always man!!
Absolutely nailed it. Loved how over the top that FX69 sounds without Krist and Pat's parts😆. Great example of something sounding harsh solo'd but sounding great in context. Can't wait to see what you go for next.
I’ve been waiting for this video
Thank you for your patience! Hope you enjoy 😃
I've been waiting for this
GREAT TONE VIDEO🤯😍and Skystang especially 🤭
The was great well done Eric keep making the great content like you do
Thank you so much for watching!!
You are the best!!!! Thanks for your videos!!!
Thank you for watching 🥹🙏🏻
Your videos are amazing.
I can finally play The Man Who Sold The World thanks Eric. I struggled with the chords from other videos.
I’m always impressed with how you get the tone really accurate to the original recordings! And I’m happy you now have a DOD Grunge to do these songs. Keep up the great videos!
Thank you so much for watching! Had to get the DOD to make this video truly accurate 😃
Great video! Yep you can definitely tell when that 'swarm of bees' DOD Grunge kicks in haha.
Hey Eric, you mentioned something that not only would be cool, but for shure you are the guy to do it. Recreate Pat's tone, during his time on Nirvana .Do a overview video, maybe borrow his model guitar from someone, or even doing with what you have
Fantastic!!! Thanks for sharing!!
Thank you for watching!!
@@NirvanaGuitars I love your work!!
Amazing always wanted this sound
Yes. Another great show. 😃🥲
Nice to see the right pickguard and cut switches on your skystang haha
Amazing!!
That sounds really good man! I always loved the tone of LAL, its very beefy.
TYSM for this🤘🏼🔥🔥🔥💙💙💙
You have very very good videos
Nice! Are we ever going to see either a Dale Demo tone recreation or a Terminal Einz/Palatrussardi tone recreation?
FORUM FEEDBACK JAM PLSSSSSS your recreations are so accurate, I need to know how to play that incredible noise
love this tone
:0
Honestly it would be really cool for a breakdown on the buddy holly strat
I am just as obsessed with Buddy Holly's gear as I am Kurt's tbh. If the interest is there, I'd love to show it more!!
@@NirvanaGuitarsI second the Buddy Holly gear breakdown
@@NirvanaGuitarsYou definitely should!
@@NirvanaGuitars Yes- Buddy Holly gear is a must!!
@@NirvanaGuitarsI Concur.
pls do the Pat Tone
tbh it's amazing to me how u make all these tones with the twin reverb. I would bet that with today's PA if kurt was alive he would probably be playing some small shows with a micd up twin reverb
Nice worrrk brooo
love this
Es maravilloso este video 🎉❤
I'm excited
Hey, I really like your work! I have a proposition for the next video, Frances Farmer Will Have Her Revenge On Seattle, Live in Seattle centre area cover. It's really cool.
btw the tones are spot on
This is another perfect tone and great video! most of my nirvana knowledge comes from here.
are you going to do any pat smear tones in the future?
Great vidéo! In the photos, you can also see the Boss DS-1 and DS-2.
Thank you! Which photos, of my pedals or the screenshots of Kurt's? He did not have a DS-1 or DS-2 at Live & Loud
@@NirvanaGuitars on my album "From the muddy banks of the Wishkah" (french version) we see Kurt with a white Fender Mustang and next to him an orange DS boss.
That image is from 10/26/93, not Live and Loud. That’s his blue skystang I
@@NirvanaGuitars oh yes i know, sorry I don't write English properly, it's not my native language.
Cant wait
4:02 the Squier Was Used In the 2 Songs "BLEW" & "ENDLESS NAMELESS"
22:03 Loved The Man Who Sold The World tone!! I’m curious if you would ever do a cover of the song like a studio version like what if Nirvana went into the studio and recorded it officially for an album, what would it sound like, the closest thing we ever have to it is the Unplugged Performance but, I’d be interested to hear you interpretation of what a studio version would sound like.
Hey dude, I really really love your videos and your dedication to the tone recreations!! I’d just like to ask, do you think a fender bassman ten would be a good substitute for your twin reverb as my brother has one that no one has turned on for over a year. Thanks for your awesome work and keep it up because you are the best! 🤘🤘
Fantastic video! You crushed that tone! What are your top 5 artists?
20:53 I LOVE THIS GUITAR🖤🤍🧡
Lets go did endless nameless
Nice tones man love it
YAY! LIVE AND LOUD!
I love this video luve and loud was the best
Next tone video do nirvana rock in rio tone
I may or may not be putting hot rails back in my comp stang 😉 That'd be a perfect show to try for after that is done!
Awesome it sounds exactly like it!!!! And i was wondering, will you ever get a mesa boogie studio preamp and crest poweramp for nevermind and in utero tones, if it already sounds amazing with the twin reverb, what would it sound like with a mesa boogie preamp and crest power amp
Hi awesome videos!could you please do an video where you play Incesticide riffs with an Roseland Ballroom tone?
PLEASE attempt Drain You or You Know Your Right studio tones!
What passion and what channel ! I love it.
In live show at the Great Western Forum in LA I have the impression that Kurt uses a modulation effect in the solos of serve the servants, in bloom or even where did you sleep. It's quite unusual... any idea what pedal he's using?
I wish I had money to buy at least two Reticon SAD1024 bucket brigade chips when they appear for sale online The chip that makes some of EHX's most famous pedals sound the way they do. I know a pedal maker who would totally make a polychorus/echoflanger clone and having that analog chip would be the icing on the cake.. I'd use the second chip to mod my EHX Small Clone reissue pedal.
We love you Eric! Never change❤️

1:11 I usually think of paramount, reading and Paradiso, I usually forget that MTV unplugged is a live show because i usually listen to my cassette instead of watching the show
Tunings used in this show? Amazing video as always man
Bro you're the only person I've seen play Blew correctly
Me from indonesian Nirvana Mania🇮🇩....can't hardly wait😁👍
Do you know how to get one of those dandy horse clones? Been trying to figure it out.
Video sounds great! I also thought Kurt never actually used a Dod grunge, but I was wrong
finally yeaaaaahhh
Not only Kurt guitars, but also Buddy Holly?! Amazing!
oh yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhh
On March 1, you should do the tone recreation of the Munich, Germany show because of how historic that show is.
the strats wernt purely for destroying, they were generally pretuned in drop d for the encore songs in that tuning to make the changeover more simple (easy for most guitarists to go to drop d quickly but with those fender bridges it obviously effects the tuning of all 6 strings if you change just one) and ive seen footage of them used when one of the Mustang's strings snapped or was really out of tune around late 92 and 93 tours. I've also read about it and from looking myself i think they were often put together strat copy bodies and necks. You can still get very cheap strat necks that arnt made by or labelled as fender but have the exact same shape. They had a technician on tours who main job was putting back together/renting the guitars and bits of drums (rarely basses because those insanely heavy gibson things Krist used are indestructible)
Prior to the in utero tour, Kurt used strats regularly and not just for destroying. On the In Utero tour, strats were only ever brought out for Blew and stage destruction
Sounds better than ever! I think you should replace the neck to only just have fender logo on it. It will be more accurate(if it isn't enough already).
Hi!! It was briefly mentioned but can we get an in-depth of your Stratocaster modeled after Buddy Hollys? He’s one of my favorite singers and guitarist and I would like to know! Thank you!
you should try the moon cafe show in 91 in new haven (mainly cuz it happened very close to where i live and my teacher went to it)
Awesome.... can you do live at MTV studios??? Jan 10 1992?
Hey Eric, I know we spoke on the previous use of the DOD during this concert. I've come to the realisation that the DOD was probably used during Breed. You can hear it when Kurt is saying "I don't care, I don't care" whilst he's playing really high up the neck. Now, in saying that, I've also had the thought that the DOD was used on Scentless Apprentice. I don't know what it is but Kurt's tone during that song always sounded nasally to me and I'm starting to think that the DOD was used more than we think for that concert and the time he used it in general. Now, I'm not Kurt so I'm not entirely sure but I feel like Kurt may have been experimenting with his tone around this time. As we know, well at least I think we know, Kurt would often put on a front. Often saying things were a joke when they weren't. For example, In Utero. Kurt had claimed multiple times that In Utero was very impersonal but I think it's safe to say that it was far from it. I feel like he may have done the same with gear? Maybe? I don't know. I feel like Kurt genuinely wanted to give the DOD a try whilst using the "it's a joke" thing as a front before he abruptly discarded the pedal into the crowd. I'm probably off my rocker but just some food for thought maybe?
Scentless Apprentice sounds literally so exact it’s scary.
Pat Smear used:
Pro Co Rat
SansAmp Classic
Boss DS-1
EHX Memory Man (Very Ape)
EHX Small Clone
Hey dude I was just wondering if they made single coil versions of the pick guard your using just wondering because I'm getting a Squier classic Vibe mustang for Christmas and can't be bothered installing a JB
Guys. Should i get a squier 60s vibe mustang and mod it with a humbucker at the bottom?
Hey Eric could you do the Off The Ramp set from 1990? I just got exposed to that and it’s killer!
Any chance you could ever do a tone video for pat smears in utero tour tone?
you have to do the ''you know youre right'' tone video
You should recreate the tone for you know your right
This was really close to the remastered audio of this show
