Nuno Bettencourt Tone (Warheads)

[Johnny Barbosa]

I was experimenting with some amps trying to get some Extreme tones. I've heard that Nuno used mainly a soldano head while recording 3 Sides. This set-up is pretty simple, Amp: Solo 88 Lead, cabinet: 4x12 Recto V30 (OH) mic: 57 Dyn, Rev: Smal room, wha pedal. Here's my attempt to warheads solo...

Every time I actually see someone playing Nuno, it makes me realize yet again what a monster player he is.

Would love to get the patch as well! Nuno's tone is one of my favorites

 

[jsletner]

I'd personally like to hear that same thing with a better mic. Your playing is fantastic, and you're nailing Nuno's style which is no easy feat. Great stuff. Keep doing what you do.
