Rampdog Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 Did Clapton have a mid range pedal made for him? If so can someone provide me with the manufacturer or better yet a link?Thanks,Woof.... If it ain't fun...why do it...? http://www.soundclick.com/bands/default.cfm?bandID=778394&content=music Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Geoff Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 The only thing I know about is the mid range booster that replaces the middle knob on the Strat. I suppose a 5- or 7-band EQ pedal would work? G.

JayViddler Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 I think he used a Dallas Rangemaster Treble Booster. That is according to this link; http://guitargeek.com/rigview/265/ I guess these are pretty hard to find though. http://www.soundclick.com/bands/default.cfm?bandID=780010&content=music Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayViddler Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 So i found this one, http://www.analogman.com/beano.htm It is supposedly based on the Rangemaster. There are some good reviews but, I don't have time at the moment to read the whole page. Hope this helps. :-) http://www.soundclick.com/bands/default.cfm?bandID=780010&content=music Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
revolead Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 Robert Keeley, who I dig more than AnalogMan (both are great, but Keeley seems to be more into the tone I'm after), also makes one: Time Machine Booster. Shut up and play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man, that looks sweet! Real nice Has a lot more options than the one I posted and one of the channels is supposed to be modeled after the Rangemaster. Seems pretty awesome, pricey, but awesome http://www.soundclick.com/bands/default.cfm?bandID=780010&content=music Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdrs Posted December 5, 2007 Share Posted December 5, 2007 Did Clapton have a mid range pedal made for him? If so can someone provide me with the manufacturer or better yet a link? Thanks, Woof.... Yo Dog....LOL I can't believe I just said that!!! LMAO!! Clapton's sig Strat, and the one he actually plays has a mid boost built in to it, as Geoff said. Other than that, I'm not sure he uses much....a wah, the real live Lesley cab, and the Fender Tweed Twin re-issues. I don't doubt that the Twins may be modded in some way, but I don't know that for sure. http://www.fender.com/products/search.php?partno=0117602806 Don "There once was a note, Pure and Easy.

Rampdog Posted December 5, 2007 Author Share Posted December 5, 2007 Thanks all... I was told there was a certain midrange pedal built for him but the signature model makes more sense... Anyway you hang it it's outa' my price range... I'll just live with my Strat the way it is and like it... (I do like it anyway) I'm learning, from insperation on the cleanest guitar thread,and the vid of EC doing "Old Love" that Doc posted, how to get some nice natural tones from it... Woof If it ain't fun...why do it...? http://www.soundclick.com/bands/default.cfm?bandID=778394&content=music Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Ellwood Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 The formula: Strat - on vintage Front PU - Klon - Quality Tube Amp. You will be in mid range heaven anytime you twist up your volume. http://www.thestringnetwork.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Geoff Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 Ramp, this is the one I have in my Frankenstrat: http://store.guitarfetish.com/cstmidbocidr.html It works & I love it. Pos 1 is passive - it works when the battery is out. You get the natural tone of your pickups. Pos 2 is *either* a mids cut or a treble/bass boost. I liken it to the 'Post-CBS' tone we talked about in the 70s when we all thought CBS had saved money by putting fewer winds on the pups. Pos 3 is a mild top-mids boost. I liken this to 'Pre-CBS'. Pos 4 is a the above plus a low-mids boost - 'Texas Special'? Pos 5 puts a *big* mids hump into the mix - mids heaven - salso gives mucho cruncho. You need to replace the mono input jack with a stereo, remove the middle tone control, wire the bottom tone as a master, then run the main out put from the vol into the board. I have the battery sitting between the springs of the trem. I don't usually use the trem, but when I have, it hasn't interfered with its use. Battery lasts at least a year. G.

picker Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 There is also this... I know a guy who thinks this thing kicks the Fender midboost that comes in a Clapton strat into the dead zone... Always remember that you are unique. Just like everyone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
