There must have been pedals marketed and touted as specifically recreating this vintage sound...what are the good ones? Thanks jazzyvee Senior Member Username: jazzyvee Post Number: 520 Registered: 6-2002 Posted on Wednesday, August 02, 2006 - 12:04 am:    Do you know who played the twangy guitar on the original James Bond theme?

There's a 'new' release (I think 2000)called Bond in action. I'm not an expert or a fan, but found this info in the dutch Guitarist magazine (Gitarist maart(march) 2000) Cheers!

There's gotta be something that claims to digitally model that tone...anyone? pace Advanced Member Username: pace Post Number: 246 Registered: 4-2004 Posted on Monday, August 07, 2006 - 5:24 am:    I just picked up an EH Holy Grail reverb pedal which does a good job w/ that "reverby" aspect of what you're going for. Its analog, and draws too much current to run on batteries. It sure beats hauling around a Fender tube reverb unit.... hb3 Intermediate Member Username: hb3 Post Number: 142 Registered: 2-2005 Posted on Monday, August 07, 2006 - 8:28 am:    Thanks, I'll check it out zuperdog Member Username: zuperdog Post Number: 58 Registered: 11-2005 Posted on Tuesday, August 08, 2006 - 6:55 pm:    A nice Fender/Vox/Hiwatt clean sound with some reverb and tremolo on top of it will get you started.
