The main solo, in contrast, is a long jam piece where David brings out all the ammunition. The first solo is sort of a signature and David rarely goes beyond playing it note by note. You can really feel the guitar cutting right through your spine.ĭavid has always been fairly true to the album version when performing the song live. I often go back (or forward) to the film version of the song, which is mixed with even more presence and volume. The track is doubled and slightly delayed making it sound like two guitars and the tone is compressed and gated to make it sound even more edgy and “in your faceâ€. It’s by far one of the most aggressive solos David’s every played but not so much due to his playing or technique but rather the mix and the sound of it.

Perhaps it’s the beauty of a perfectly written rock song or the contrast between the gentle voices and the climatic end. It’s hard to tell why a guitar solo becomes so famous and loved by so many. (…) Then I just follow the chart, whipping one fader up, then another fader, jumping from phrase to phrase and trying to make a really nice solo all the way through.†From there I just followed my usual procedure, which is to listen back to each solo and mark out bar lines, saying which bits are good. The Yamaha is mixed slightly lower than the Hiwatt adding a rich sort of undefinable character.ĭavid explained to Guitar World in 1993 how the solo was written: “I just went out into the studio and banged out five or six solos. The main effect of course is the Electro Harmonix “ram’s head†Big Muff fed into a Hiwatt DR103 head with a WEM speaker cabinet and a Yamaha RA-200 rotating speaker. Some sources also suggest that he used an Electric Mistress flanger but I’m having a really hard time hearing it. The first demo recorded by the band – sans the orchestra – includes a MXR Phase 90 but this was ditched on the final version. There are different reports on what effects David used for the sessions. The guitar still had the DiMarzio FS-1 bridge pickup but was newly fitted with a custom Charvel maple neck. David used the Black Strat for the two solos and the power chords during the main solo. The guitars were recorded sometime early autumn 1979. The demo from the first band sessions also includes David’s fuzz chords on the verses, which came back on the 1980s and 90s live version but was not included on the album. David though the first version was too sloppy and liked the second slightly tighter take. According to an interview with David from Guitar World in 1993 the issue was Nick Mason’s drumming. The recording of the song for The Wall caused a lot of tension between Roger and David.

The PL5 is the 2nd biggest seller in the Soundtank Series (the TS5 TUBESCREAMER is No.1). This is it, and beware: it will add a razor-sharp edge to your noise.

Tone stack would be one of those places where some cool mod would probably make this a lot better circuit.

Not sure if the tone pot is reversed or not, but as it is, i would rather call it depth than tone. And why not add some clipping options or just double the number of diodes for more volume. If i was to mod one thing, that would be upping the input cap for something like 100n. I can see this very high gain distortion being useful for leads and solos, but i would'nt use it for base tone. But if we think this for two seconds - it is called Powerlead - not bluesy overdrive, nor death metal distortion. Just finished building this, and in my opinion it's not the best design in soundtank series. The days when you could get one for $10 are gone.

I urge you - do a ebay search with keywords "ibanez soundtank". I know that in the first six hours of publishing this there will be at least one dude commenting how it sounded like crap back in '95:) This one - once again without buffers and transistor pinouts are changed to accomodate your standard pinouts of 2N5088, MPSA18 and BC550C. And believe me - four transistors and one dual opamp - that's pretty much all you can fit in there, if you want to squeeze it into 1590B. This is the biggest layout i've done to date.
