something i always appreciate about your covers/tone is that you always replicate how songs were played at that particular show, given how often they subtly changed. really shows your attention to detail ☺
@@NirvanaGuitars No problem mate. Yeah, he saw 'poor old Kurt' (as he would call him) perform twice at both Reading 91 & 92. Needless to say, I was also jealous :)
HE SAW BOTH READINGS?? Jaw dropped 🤯 I love Reading 92 but Reading 91 is one of my all time favorite shows and is the better of the two imo. Extremely jealous lol
I'm always amaze on how you recreate this live tones! You never disappoint us. The effort you put in this videos is mind-blowing! Live at reading introduced me to nirvana, and since then i have bought my own strat with hot rails on it just to recreate reading's tone. Thank you nirvanaguitars for this amazing recreation!!
Wow I cannot thank you enough for the kind words! I swear my VMA strat is converting me to be a strat guy. Strat + Hot Rails is like the perfect combination, no wonder Kurt went through like 4 of them! You've got a great guitar 😀
Your guitar playing somehow fills a adrenaline rush that even sugar can't cover! It's so cool you keep the spirit of Nirvana alive and i've been watching since the Nevermind songs in Bleach tone tour! Keep it up!
Such a great concert. I've always loved Lithium from this show in particular, the way the crowd sings along during the chorus gives it such a huge sound. Incredible video with a spot on tone, as always. Keep up the good shit man. Love your vids, rock on.
Spank thru is one of my favourite songs in general, so it was a nice surprise to see you recreate it (as well as the other songs) so accurately. Great video!
You are a real tone chaser. You have genuinely inspired me in so many ways. Your colection and tones are just so amazing. As somone who enjoys nirvana and guitar tones, i simply just fall into loving the tones. You are a lagend. Keep it up!🤩
I know I’ve said this like 5 times but this has to be your most spot on tone recreation yet, I’ve always been in love with Kurt’s tone at this show, and this sounds almost identical to the album. I never knew there was a Facebook group dedicated to Kurt’s guitars and gear, I plan on acquiring a Mesa/Crest amp setup like Kurt’s once I find a job that actually pays and that’s gonna be a huge help. Thanks for putting that out there!
Awesome video my friend. I’m not the biggest fan of the performance of Reading 92 but the tone was killer. For some reason I’ve always preferred Reading 91 but wished there was better video of it lol I’m glad to see the overdriven “cleans” most people miss this when doing Kurt live tone videos
The best video series on how to get the Nirvana sound and style. Thank you for sharing - as a 40something who grew up on Nirvana and just got a guitar for the first time this year, these videos are invaluable!
After doing the VMA tone, I knew this had to be the next tone I tried to get with it 😃 I really appreciate the kind words, that really means a lot thank you!
Bro i loved the video, i've tried to search this tone for so many time and finally found it much people doens't explain how you explain the tone i appreciate that, if you read this coment... please if you have time, can you make a tone video for the nulle part ailleurs tone thats another tone that ive been searching too i will be very grateful
Thanks for your patience! I was super excited when playing D-7 and The Money Will Roll Right In in particular, I love the way his strat sounds during those songs
Came to check out the pedal settings. Just like you, I always thought it sounded like Kurt used the Turbo mode on his DS2 for this show. It always sounded more mid spiked to me, especially on songs like Territorial Pissings. However, with the amp settings, etc, I can now see why I thought it was Mode 2. The mids are pushed more the whole show. Thanks for this. Your stuff is great.
On a Plain has always been my favorite song from this show and just barely above Spank Thru. i don't know what it is about this version of it, but it's my absolute favorite live version, and favorite song from Reading 92.
Man its identical to the live, bro next time when you have the k strat make the tone recreation of nirvana in evergreen state college 1991 one of my favorite shows of that strat.
If you look closely on D-7 you will actually see the slow part of the song is played on the bridge but the heavy part he switches to the neck pickup when the distortion comes in. Watch the 4K videos and you can clearly see thats what he does.
Live At Reading will not always be one of the most iconic live rock shows and it'll always have one of the coolest guitar tones ever, killed it always man
What an incredible recreation you did man! It's the same sound, and I have a suggestion for a future video, could you recreate the tone of Nirvana live Seattle Center Coliseum 1992? specifically the song Rape Me, since in this version it has a different guitar solo from the one in Live at the Paramount 1991, I hope you can do it ;)
Please do the scentless apprentice rehearsal demo tone... Its so sludgy and raw.. I LOVE it... And im not sure what kinda peddle is being used for the screechy crying sound... Thank you, and the content is incredible, dude.. Keep it up :)
Awesome video!! You never fail to get such accurate tones. This might be a big ask, but do you think it could be possible for you to one day make a video showcasing every riff Kurt Cobain wrote, from around 1987 to 1994 (or at least most of them)? There really are so many, so I completely understand if that’s unreasonable 😅
Thank you! In Utero tour era is my favorite, I've been meaning to make more videos about that era! I had to get to Reading though, it's been requested by a lot of people for a long time haha
Is the tone really set that high on the DS-2? On my old DS-1 I max the distortion and level but the tone is rarely above 10 o’clock (which seems to be consistent with the general consensus RE Cobain’s setting. Is the natural eq on the DS-2 that different?
Thats k long time ive been playing for around 3-4 years. Im only 13 and im a huge fan pf your work can you do a studio tone recreation of hairspray queen
I replied but replies dont get replies? (I know its confusing) so here was the comment: Amazing Recreation! It was worth the wait! Also, where can i buy an accurate Vandalism Strat or a Competition Mustang for cheap? (maybe $250 or less?)
hello, little question (sorry if you answered it in the video and i didn't notice...) why do you think that your jaguar came closer than your strats to the tone of some of the songs in the show? (i presume that's why you used it, at least.) is it to do with the pickup it has or something else?
I’m surprised you’ve never tried recreating one of the more underrated guitarist tone and guitar In Nirvana Jason Everman and his Fender Telecaster he was know for playing it alot live
There’s not really any high enough quality recordings during his 6 months in the band that we can hear the difference between his and Kurt’s tone. It all kinda mushes together. From the little bit I can pick apart, his sounds super trebly and harsh to me
Like what I do? Buy me a coffee so I can stay awake while I mix audio and edit videos 😴 www.buymeacoffee.com/nirvanaguitars
Amazing Recreation! It was worth the wait! Also, where can i buy an accurate Vandalism Strat or a Competition Mustang for cheap? (maybe $250 or less?)
Thank you i ve just tried it at home in France thank you
I got the exact same T-shirt for my birthday
Five Nights at Mixing tones
i love that you also included their mini cover of bostons "more than a feeling" i wish they would've done the complete song
And if they had some good vocals.
something i always appreciate about your covers/tone is that you always replicate how songs were played at that particular show, given how often they subtly changed. really shows your attention to detail ☺
I appreciate that! I try my best to recreate both the tone and the playing style of the show/song 😃
It's a huge part of tone, notes and strokes imitated. Gj
My friend's father was at this concert and had a lot of funny stories to tell about it. You've hit the nail on the head again with that tone!
That is so cool! Forever jealous of anyone who saw Nirvana live. Thanks for the kind words!

Great tone! Probably my favorite show they did
Bro you never disappoint everyone, your so amazing at making these videos, I was literally only like 20 seconds in and it already sounds the same
That sincerely means a lot 🥹 Thank you!!
Everything about this is perfect...the playing...the tone..the detail.Seriously impressive man.
Wow thank you so so much!
Your guitar playing somehow fills a adrenaline rush that even sugar can't cover! It's so cool you keep the spirit of Nirvana alive and i've been watching since the Nevermind songs in Bleach tone tour! Keep it up!
Thank you so much for being a longtime supporter!! 🙏🏻
Yo that tone is sick, I always loved that 92 tone thank you for recreating it
Such a great concert. I've always loved Lithium from this show in particular, the way the crowd sings along during the chorus gives it such a huge sound. Incredible video with a spot on tone, as always. Keep up the good shit man. Love your vids, rock on.
Spank thru is one of my favourite songs in general, so it was a nice surprise to see you recreate it (as well as the other songs) so accurately. Great video!
Interesting fact. No one who did a cover of D-7 (I didn't see it) noticed that Kurt's distortion part is played on a neck pickup.)))
Dude these are amazing
This is my favorite live from them and one of my favorite tone youtubers ♥
That is a honor thank you so much 🙏
Курт жил так мало, но успел сделать так много. Спасибо за видео. Greetings from Russia!
You are a real tone chaser. You have genuinely inspired me in so many ways. Your colection and tones are just so amazing. As somone who enjoys nirvana and guitar tones, i simply just fall into loving the tones. You are a lagend. Keep it up!🤩
God damn I have waited for you to post this! And I really think that So everyone else has, great tone as always!!
Another great tone recreation.
Live at reading is probably my favorite show I been wanting to get Kurt’s jaguar and sunburst for a long time.
One of your most awaited, and also one of your closest reached tones. Super happy its finally here!
Wow thank you so much!! Thank you for your patience with this one, so happy to hear you enjoyed it 😃

Can you recreate the tone for for their nirvana’s live show in Paris 1994
Thanks for another great video. Thanks for taking the time for us to learn.
Awesome video my friend. I’m not the biggest fan of the performance of Reading 92 but the tone was killer.
For some reason I’ve always preferred Reading 91 but wished there was better video of it lol

Excellent video dude!
been wanting this for so longggg!!!!
I was wondering when you'd do this since you get your VMA strat! I think these are some of the closest and most accurate tones you've gotten yet!
After doing the VMA tone, I knew this had to be the next tone I tried to get with it 😃 I really appreciate the kind words, that really means a lot thank you!
Some argue that the live performances of these songs are better than the studio variants! 🎸
I love this version of lithium
Great tone I love the reading 1992 show, especially the set list
If only they threw in Something in The Way, then they would've played the entire Nevermind album!
@@NirvanaGuitars yea that would be really cool
You sir, are without a doubt a veru valuable reference for Nirvana's tone!
I was really waiting for this video, it's just awesome!!!
Thanks for your patience! Hope you enjoy 😃
You should try recreate love buzz reading 1992!
Your content is incredible ! As a fan of nirvana you make le happy and jealous every day haha
I love all of your Nirvana tone covers you were the reason I bought a Kurt cobain signature jaguar
Bro i loved the video, i've tried to search this tone for so many time and finally found it much people doens't explain how you explain the tone i appreciate that, if you read this coment... please if you have time, can you make a tone video for the nulle part ailleurs tone thats another tone that ive been searching too i will be very grateful
I waited for this now I wait for live and loud!
Sound amazing ❤🎉
Thank you!
I'm super hyped for my jag to be done (I'm building one based on a squire)
This is one of nirvanas best live performances
D-7 SPOT ON!
And I've been waiting for this.

I wish Kurt was still here with us but he is in a better place right now🙏
The about a girl distorted tone is my favorite tone I've ever heard. So crunchy
great as always...would love to see more in utero stuff too...rokk on!
On a Plain has always been my favorite song from this show and just barely above Spank Thru. i don't know what it is about this version of it, but it's my absolute favorite live version, and favorite song from Reading 92.
I would love to see a Madrid 1992 live tone recreation
You nailed Spank Thru tone, Great Work 👍👍
Thank you! I love the strat's thick clean tone in this show 😃
Man its identical to the live, bro next time when you have the k strat make the tone recreation of nirvana in evergreen state college 1991 one of my favorite shows of that strat.
Thank you! Funny enough I am actually working on a K strat build right now 👀
If you look closely on D-7 you will actually see the slow part of the song is played on the bridge but the heavy part he switches to the neck pickup when the distortion comes in. Watch the 4K videos and you can clearly see thats what he does.

Babe wake up new nirvana guitars tone video
Good morning babe! 🌞
I like, that You play the Smells Like Teen Spirit riff right, starting with upstroke !
A new live at the paramount tone would be amazing 💕
great video
Thank you!
Awesome video!! You never fail to get such accurate tones.

Woah that's a great video idea!! That would take a bit of time to prep and record but i think it could come out pretty cool 😃
@@NirvanaGuitarsAwesome!! I would love to see it!
MAAN YOU KILLED IT Your the best cover for nirvana songs, I Want to see you cover other bands such as Metallica, The OffSpring, Korn and more!!!!
HES LITERALLY CALLED NIRVANA GUITARS
Awesome tone's
You are a god among mankind. Thank you for your hard work
Thanks for the support! 🙏
fuuck its not that great. I was doing this stuff in the 90's
@@Thetonemaster1 Good for you? Didn’t your parents teach you manners? lol
bashes "kurt cobain tone chasing" guys in one comment, says that he himself is a "kurt cobain tone chasing" guy in the next. Quite the hypocrite
@@NirvanaGuitars Right?
Rad🤘🏻 My favourite TouYuber is back
Great video as usual! Wouod you do 1994 tone recreations or other tone recreations from 1993, like the show on New Years Eve and such?
Thank you! In Utero tour era is my favorite, I've been meaning to make more videos about that era! I had to get to Reading though, it's been requested by a lot of people for a long time haha
Fun fact, Kurt had his tone knob on his strats and jag at this show turned almost all the way down.
Source? That has never been verified. It’s more like fun speculation rather than fun “fact”
I remember reading it on a website, it could've been faked. idk tho.@@NirvanaGuitars
Perfect
Is the tone really set that high on the DS-2? On my old DS-1 I max the distortion and level but the tone is rarely above 10 o’clock (which seems to be consistent with the general consensus RE Cobain’s setting. Is the natural eq on the DS-2 that different?
Identical recreation, really👍
Thank you so much!
can you do nirvana live at the pyramid club tone (the tone on this video is so accurate, love what you do)
he finally did it
I Did! Thanks for your patience!
@@NirvanaGuitars btw how long have you been playing guitar for?
Around 16 years 👴🏻
Thats k long time ive been playing for around 3-4 years. Im only 13 and im a huge fan pf your work can you do a studio tone recreation of hairspray queen
Super awesome
Thank you so much 😀
Fcking great video!!!!
Thank you so much!!
Your content is wonderful! I use this channel all the time. Thank you a lot.
One question? What tuning is used in this show?
hello, i'm not 100% sure but kurt usually tuned his guitar a half step down for most shows
@@mikesantiago14 thank you
Super 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Oh my gosh this sounded the exact same
I love this show but I wish Kurt's clean tone wasn't so distorted
Kurt turned town both his tone knobs halfway during this show i think it’ll slightly make a differnec
What’s the source for that, Earnie or Kurt himself? That has been verified by someone who was there?
Is there a cheaper amp I could use?
Good to hear your voice again and just one question what do you think is the best pedal and guitar for stoner tones ❤🎉
brilliant
Thanks!
Could you make a video of the tone of Live at Rotterdam?
I replied but replies dont get replies? (I know its confusing) so here was the comment: Amazing Recreation! It was worth the wait! Also, where can i buy an accurate Vandalism Strat or a Competition Mustang for cheap? (maybe $250 or less?)
Thank you! I'm sorry but I don't know of anywhere that sells those guitars for $250 or less. Most affordable option I know of is khristore.com
❤❤
hello, little question (sorry if you answered it in the video and i didn't notice...) why do you think that your jaguar came closer than your strats to the tone of some of the songs in the show? (i presume that's why you used it, at least.) is it to do with the pickup it has or something else?
nice!
Awsome tone my dude, i can recommends you put some boost and have the tone knob to half (credits to jq)
Thanks! Personally for my set up adjusting the tone knob made it worse, it lost clarity
Oh, but it still sounded identical
I’m surprised you’ve never tried recreating one of the more underrated guitarist tone and guitar In Nirvana Jason Everman and his Fender Telecaster he was know for playing it alot live

@@NirvanaGuitars just thought it would be a cool idea is all but understandable it was cool he use one of his vinyl records he owned as a pick guard
That would be cool! It is after all the most visible instrument on the cover of bleach
Wow I have never seen him talk about any of his gear! Yes if you find the link please post it!
@@NirvanaGuitars sry can’t seem to leave a link TH-cam keeps deleting my comments
Wheres love buzz?
Hey Eric thanks for your hard work, what hot rails do you use? idk if have different models or not..
Hay can anybody give a link were to get the Vibrato Tail piece that kurt used
most accurate nirvana tones
Can’t thank you enough!! The support really means a lot 🙏🏻
What is the bridge piece that you put in your jaguar, I’m looking for one that colour
You should do tones on the randall compared to fender for a video :)
😮 good idea!

Will do! Thank you for the idea!
