Exact tone to my ear for all of them.
Very nice video, NirvanaGuitars! ❤
Wow thank you so much! 🙏
Living out the dreams of every Nirvana fan, meeting the remaining band members, meeting their producers, and having the chance to document 3 of Kurts Guitars. Love the work, keep it up!
It's all been a dream come true 😭 It's only been possible because of the support from the community! Thank you so much for watching and for the kind words!
Yes, he is! I am SOOOO loving this channel!
This channel has really grown.
That first note at 5:37 sounded like the guitar went like:
"FUCK YEAA-" "oh wait, we're missing that... /turns on the sansamp\ FUCK YEAAAAAAAAAA"
Dude actually got to borrow an Echoflanger. Absolute dreamLOL
All you need is a Mesa Studio 22.. Nah, kidding. Last few videos have been absolutely amazing, thanks for the constant quality stuff!
Dude I have THE best and most generous friends!! John is easily one of the coolest people I have ever met. Trust me, a Mesa Studio Pre is still one of my dream pieces of gear! But I am very happy with the results I have been getting 😃
Thank you so much man, I truly appreciate the kind words and the support you show every week. It really means a lot 🙏
I always try to help. Love seeing you genuinely improve your tones EVERY time, I can really respect you correcting yourself and admitting you're wrong sometimes.
Best I've ever been able to borrow was a Boss Super Chorus which got me hooked on them LOL, I'd so own a Small Clone if I wasn't hooked on that
I absolutely LOVED my Poly Chorus...but I didn't have it long unfortunately. I didn't take the "overload" indicator seriously and completely fried the board. It was going to cost $200 to replace it (original cost of the pedal basically) which I couldn't afford. So I wound up with the Small Clone instead. Amazing as always, keep up the great work!
Aw dude I'm sorry to hear that 😩 That's the scary part of paying big bucks for vintage pedals, some of them are essentially ticking time bombs to failing due to age. Thank you so much for the continued support every week, I don't take it for granted! 🙏
Not to crowd, I remember buying the DS-1 and later D-S2 because of him and immediately realized something didn't sound right. Having not realized the entire set up to get the tone. I loved my GRUNGE pedal as well. Dude, your foot made me jump 😂
@@NirvanaGuitars Our little group has always been and always will until the end.
I love the sound of each of them! But I’ve gotta say the tone for Lithium is my favorite! I can’t wait for the comparison video between the 80’s, 90’s reissue, and 2016 reissue of the small clone!
radio friendly might be my favorite song nirvana ever put out. and the difference in sound from your stereo poly, to the echoflanger clone, to the real thing is immaculate. when i heard that effect i got chills. it sounds exactly the same. most of us will never have the money to drop on a vintage echoflanger like that, but im happy you got the change to play one to give us these amazing tone recreations. thankyou.
We never know when NirvanaGuitars uploads, and we got another vid!
Been uploading weekly since 2022! Usually Fridays, sometimes Saturdays
35 minute long nirvanaguitars video, the gods have blessed us
I fucking love the in utero tours! Great video Eric keep it up!
The best tone recreation thing i've ever heard i love thiss ❤
WOW thank you so so much 😭 🙏
@@NirvanaGuitars Hey Also, Why dont you change the neck of the Sigma to A Martin acoustic neck? Been wondering that for a long time😁
Always great to see a new NirvanaGuitars Video! :)
😊 🙏
This is insanely accurate. It felt like I was listening to an actual Nirvana concert, especially during Come As You Are and Rape Me
For in bloom, I was expecting a montage with the short video of dave playing the drums with his mouth haha !
Really Nice work Eric, as usual :)
@NirvanaGuitars you probably are not going to see this but what I want to say is that I have started my nirvana addiction I watch your videos on how to get tones and your other stuff. You are the luckiest nirvana fan ever you been with three of Kurt’s guitars. Also of topic I play a Kramer striker
I’m just wow, the tune sounds perfect, great job man, Nirvana was the band that made me learned how to play the guitar.
Wow, I love this so much. In Utero is one of my favourite album's. I wish I had these pedals. Keep Rocking Eric.🤘🥴🎸🎶
I can't totally explain why, but a smile broke on my face as soon as you played the opening notes to Radio Friendly Unit Shifter. It was a little bit like I was finally at the Nirvana I've dreamed of attending since I was in high school. 😊
This is soo fucking cool. That fact that this vid is 35 mins long shows how much you love the In Utero Tour tones. Keep it up!!
Hearing you play riffs is an absolute, it lets me appreciate the full depth and sound of these tones.
My fav tour! Keep the good work up dude!
Mine too 🤩 Thanks for watching, as always! I don't take the support for granted!
@@NirvanaGuitars your welcome every Friday is my favourite beacause of your uploads!
@@Silverfan97 😭 🙏 Extremely honored to hear that!
really great stuff, keep it up !
radio friendly was ON POINT! great job!
Thank you so much!
I watched and rewatched the live and loud show for years as a kid. I had a tape I recorded off MTV and wore it out. You nailed this! Watching your video cause my mind to teleport. Great job!
This is amazing nice job dude Kurt is still here with us 🙏🙏
Sounds well within the ballpark of those tones man! Awesome video as always NirvanaGuitars
It’s crazy how hard it is for company’s to keep a pedal to sound the same like the small clone and poly chorus. Awesome video it really made me think outside the box about these pedals keep up the great work!!
Someone has been practicing 🤘🏼 Excellent sounds! Great job 👏🏼
Your channel always helps me remember why I love Nirvana so much. Your research is so well done and your passion for the band is so contagious!!!
Love this thanks for making these video's I've learned alot I missed
You always post awesome tone videos. The Jag-stang is my personnel dream guitar, and the prototype mods you have look great. I've always wanted a love buzz tone video, especially on the studio solo. Love your videos, and keep up the great work
Your tone videos are amazing 🔥🔥
Thank you so much!
Sounds awesome! Love your channel!
Thank you so much!
Wouldn't mind an hour with that pedalboard!
Sounds awesome as per usual.
UAUU! Very nice video! Nirvana
The vintage pedals sound amazing
I literally have no idea how guitars works, distortion pedals, builds, mods, etc...
I only like nirvana and yet this video is so interesting to watch that now i feel like i've been a guitar owner for like 20 years now even tho i've never touched one before.
Great vid man!
It’s crazy how company’s can’t keep products to sound the same and why. This video really made me think outside the box about these pedals. Awesome video keep and the great work!
Very Nice, dude!!!
Dude actually got to borrow an Echoflanger. What the fuck LOL
All you need is a Mesa Studio 22.. Nah, kidding. Last few videos have been absolutely amazing, thanks for the constant quality stuff!
Dude, you are ridiculously ON POINT! 🤑
eric dropped another banger🔥🔥
You're the man! 💙🙏🙏🙏🔥
Mate you should try recreating in utero sounds using amp sim that would be a fun video
Would be a budget way to get nirvanas tune
love the new profile picture
whaaaaat a new video!? we don't know when to expect them do we
Been uploading weekly since 2022! Usually Fridays, sometimes on Saturdays
@@NirvanaGuitars noted
Amazing!! truly a starting point to look if you wanna a Nirvana tone ....
Thank you so much!!
this is probably one of the best tones you've gotten, this is great! please keep it up, also i've been looking for an echoflanger alternative, do you know any? thanks, white strat eater out.
Love this tone era!
Ahh!! Come As You Are from this era is one of the best sounding songs they’ve ever done.
Fucking brilliant as always.
Hell yeah Eric awesome!!
Thank you!
O jeito como voce toca os solos de Serve The Servants, In Bloom, e School parecem um pouco diferentes do que soavam ao vivo na turne de In Utero. Fico cada vez mais impressionado com o seu canal, continue com o ótimo trabalho. Saudações do Brasil!!
Eric you should do a video playing all In Utero riffs on the Epiphone-ET 270.
The tone here is probably the best live tone you've ever recreated, in terms of accuracy.
Thank you so much!
Thank YOU for watching!!
Wow dude you nailed it
Thank you so much!
Thank you!🤝🙂
Thank YOU for watching!
great video! I really love the 31/12/93 show (12/31/93).
Solid. Very solid.
I am do Amazed by the clean tone. Dodn't think that it was possible to get that close but if anyone could do it, it would be you.
amazingly close on radio unit
A thing I've noticed about live versions of Francis Farmer, during the bridge one of them actually kicks in a flanger, it might be Pat's BF2 or the Polychorus.
So cool!
Thank you!
Wow. Your pedalboard sounds like the original pedalboard to my ears. I have two of those pedals. The 80s Small Clone and 90s DS-2. I got them sometime when they first came out. . But sadly, I use the EHX Eddy instead of the EchoFlanger / PolyChorus as they are out of my price range. I subbed in the Joyo for the Tech21 SansAmp.
Love your vids, I have moded my own mustang it was a squier competition mustang and I swapped the pickup to a Seymour Duncan jb so it’s like my own mustang inspired by Kurt but who’d never have done it if I didn’t watch you Chanel that’s all thank you
That’s so awesome!! Can’t beat a mustang with a JB 😉
you know it's a great day when NirvanaGuitars posts a new video
Thanks!
Thank you so so much for your support and generosity! It truly means a lot 🙏
I think he'd be happy that someone is so wholly passionate about his sound.
GUITAR MANIACS MENTIONED!!!!
Perfect ❤🤘🙂🤙
Hey Eric i just wanted to ask on which tour did kurt used his ds1. Thanks for ur answer btw amazing video
I would love to see if you can use these to recreate the In Utero studio tone (assuming you have the time)
kurt would be proud
Loving the tone! It definetely got that In Utero tour tone! Could you consider making a 1991 BBC radio or Incesticide tone video? Thanks for everything!
Guess you got say that the pedals you have are as 90's percent close to the real deal! 😍
I love nirvanaguitars videos
🥹 🙏
I always wanted to say this and I want you to read it as if it were a dream that many probably want to come true, and that is if you could cover "You Know You're Right" with your Univox hi flier phase 4, I hope you read it I'm a big fan of yours 😊
a cool thing that you should do is make videos on how to play and recreate songs and the tone. you could show tabs and stuff. you could also show the wrong way people play it and the right way. i think that would be pretty cool and i’d watch those
Do “You Know You’re Right” for your next studio tone recreation
It's nice to see work with much care. Your work is really worth it, all the songs are the same as the original performances, it's almost as if we were watching the shows of the time in high definition. It's no exaggeration to say that you're one of the most committed Nirvana fans on the internet. I hope to be able to see your work for a long time.
Hey eric you should do a smells like teen spirit first tv performance jaguar tone btw i love your vids
I Guess you missed the Hagstrom II red guitar, I have a ‘67 one and I love it 🤷
It would be awesome seeing your recreation of the Pennyroyal Tea performances from 1991. Perfomances like O.K. Hotel in Seattle, Astoria Theatre (London), Cabaret Metro (Chicago), Opera House in Toronto. I really like the slower tempo in the song, gives a more intense feeling to it, I don't know.
Hello from Russia!Im eleven years old,but I love nirvana and your channel)❤
Thank you so much! Hello from the US! 👋
@@NirvanaGuitars I think music and people are outside of politics
Man, you need to get a mesa boogie studio pre amp, and a crest 4801 power amp, and a marshall cab with v30's and that's Kurt's live tone with those pedals.
You should make a replica of Skystang 2 please
Can you make a vid on how to play the songs like Kurt did?
Very accurate! But I prefer the Nevermind tour sound.
I'm going to get a sansamp after this video
the main use of the ds-2 was def to stack with the sansamp, given thats likely what most of hte album tones came from for utero
Would you recommend a 2021 Jagstang? I’ve been on the fence abt getting one
If they ever make an amp sim based on Kurt Cobain, they ought to consult you about it
Is it possible to do a budget tone video 😂, one without the ds2 and sansamp, i can afford the small clone, poly chorus and ds1 but cant really get the sansamp
In fact, on the same channel there is a video with cheaper distortion pedals similar to Sansamp for the sound of In Utero, and thanks to that video I bought the Joyo American Sound
Me and my friend challenge you to do all the never mind riffs with the in utero tone.
ah man i was gonna get a echoflanger or polychorus until i seen the price LOL crazy
i have two tone requests, Live at rio de janerio (hollywood rock festival 1993), and their first tv performance of smells like teen spirit on November 8th 1991 at limehouse studios
Quick question on the SLTS cover why did you play the solo that way? I’m assuming it’s because of how Kurt might have played it live once but I would like to know what show it is if true.
That’s how he played it at every in utero tour show
wished they did more songs during this era like spank thru, paper cuts, hairspray queen
Do you have a budget polychorus/echoflanger alternative
Hey NirvanaGuitars what song is the most fun to play to with one of your guitars?
