Original Recording
Studio recording for 'Bound for the Floor' (1996). Scott Lucas used a unique dual-output SG to split guitar and bass signals. The main riff is played on the guitar output through the Matchless Superchief 120 and Marshall cab. No evidence of Vox or Ampeg amps on the studio recording for the riff section. Effects chain includes distortion/fuzz pedals, but no clear evidence of time-based or modulation effects on the riff. Settings estimated based on genre, amp, and era.
