The guitar tones of Nirvana's 'In Utero': Will a silver-face twin do the trick?

Hey all,

Back with another video! This time we're talking about Nirvana's In Utero and the amp Kurt used for tracking guitars. In this video I discuss Kurts amp, the recording methods used, and give it a go myself with a 1977 Twin Reverb amp I picked up recently.

While I didn't cover every song, this video will give you a good idea of the tonal possibilities of this amp with combined with the SansAmp and DS-2.

I hope you enjoy! Please let me know what you think in the comments below.

Special thanks to ‪@jq.guitars‬ , ‪@AaronRash‬ & ‪@johnpickk7526‬ for providing information which helped make this video possible.
