Ship Ahoy question

what did Frank use to create this track?  I have owned a Subdecay Proteus for many years and it comes close but doesn't nail it.  Such a wonderful track from the Shut Up releases, by far my favorite from the trio.  It is such a guttural sound of guitar emotion. Beautiful- it has anger, reflection and playfulness all in one.

 Also, was it recorded w/ the Les Paul?

Thanks for the info.  I knew some of those tracks were taken from live performances but didn’t know that one was.  A few faces melted that evening for sure.  Any idea of what tune they were doing when he laid that one out?  Glad your feeling better DZ!

Hi Matthew,

My dad used a sample and hold pedal from Oberheim. It was a white pedal and was called a VCF (voltage controlled filter). It was a strat that he played and it was from a live show in Tokyo. I've always loved the sound and the way my dad played against the rhythmic pulse from the VCF.
