Interesting. I never would've guessed that Angus used his wireless unit in the studio and that it's part of his tone.

It's kind of like Iommi and May with the Treble Booster, or Ritchie with his Awia tape machine. These things all acted like preamps and added to their sounds in the days of single gain stage amps.

Yeah. I get a kick when people will argue ad nauseam that EVH didn't use an overdrive pedal and that the sound of VH1 is a stock Marshall. And somehow nobody mentions the gain stage added by the Echoplex's preamp on front...
