STEVE HACKETT
(J'ai prévenu, je suis dans ma période Genesis)
Donc avec Genesis, ce que j'ai déjà posté :
Citation:
Ces effets de l'époque consistait en 1 phaser mxr, 1 colorsound tonebender, 1 pédale de volume, 1 wah, 1 echo plus les amplis (souvent des Hiwatt).
Les plus perspicaces d'entre vous auront deviné que ça date de 1974.
Il utilisait également une shaftesbury duofuzz.

I used to enjoy using the Tone Bender and the Duo-Fuzz at the same time - It
gave a very thin 'violinish' sound provided you used reverb or repeat echo
to give it some gloss.
The Synthi Hi-Fli was also useful for achieving an almost backwards sound -
specifically on the middle section of 'Ripples' on 'Trick of the Tail'.
Eventually Pete Cornish built many of these effects into a pedal board which
ran off mains instead of batteries. He is of course an unsurpassed genius in
his own right when it comes to building effects units. He probably should be
running the Electricity Board...

From Guitar Player magazine
STEVE HACKETT GEAR circa 1976:
1) Les Paul Custom electric guitar
2) H.H. Transistor Amplifier (apparently the size of a small suitcase the H.H. replaced Steve's former Hiwatt stack, and featured a built-in sustain/gain/overload switch, a vibrato unit, reverb control -- and cost roughly $300.00!!!)
3) An unnamed octave divider
4) Cry Baby wah
5) Marshall Super Fuzz
6) Shaftesbury Duo Fuzz
7) MXR Phase 90
8 ) Schaller volume pedal
9) Echoplex
10) Synthi Hi Fli synthesizer (used, for example, for the solo for "Counting Out Time" from LLDOB)
11) Yairi nylon string classical guitar
12) Fender medium picks
13) Sound City 4000 strings (.100, .012, .015 with the remaining gauges -- heavier than ordinary .
(Information supplied by Chris Shryack of UNDER THE SUN)
On the Seventies Live Archive recordings the stage setup consisted of two Roland JCM 120s (at least one of them fitted with EV speakers we think) switched as 'Clean' and 'Lead' from the Cornish pedalboard - i.e. only one would have been in use at any given time. There were also two Echoplexes (one on each amp).

There's no definitive equipment list in existence and Steve can't remember most of it from years past! From my own memory on the Tokyo Tapes shows the guitar (Gibson and Fernandes Les Paul models fitted with Fernandes Sustainer system for Les Paul models adapted for Steve) went into a SansAmp GT2 then the volume pedal (Korg) then into a channel on the Mackie 16 channel mixer. From there it can feed the effects rack which included 2 Roland SE70s, 2 Midiverbs, a Quadraverb and a Zoom 9050s (this also has another SansAmp GT2 on the insert loop). The mixer output feeds a large power amp (currently Marshall 9100 but on that occasion a locally sourced VRT G2150S) which then drives 2 Marshall 1960 4x12 slope front cabinets. Some further information can also be found here.

He has been playing standard "008" gauge Ernie Ball Strings (the blue pack) for at least the last dozen years or so, maybe longer. The nylon strung guitars are currently strung with "Pro Arte" strings.

Q: Just had a few questions about your live nylon string guitar set up. Does the signal go straight out to the house board (through a direct box) or do you have some type of preamp or signal processing in between? Are you still using Yairi guitars and if so, what model? I really like the live tone that you get with the nylon guitar.
A: The signal goes straight to the house via a Brooke Siren active DI box which we carry with us.
Steve's been using two K. Yairi guitars for live work since 1988 - single cutaway but we're not sure of the exact model number. These were augmented in 2002 by a new Yairi CY128CE and it's that guitar which is mostly used on the Hungarian Horizons concert DVD (except for 'Bay of Kings' which is on one of the older ones).
