Kiwi Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 Good ol' Tom Petty is back, and this new single sounds insanely good Any Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers fans here? Also, does anyone know how Mike Campbell gets that awesome Led Zeppelin-ish guitar tone? [YOUTUBE] [/YOUTUBE] EDIT: Oh well, seems like the video is blocked from playback on forums. Just click on it and watch it at Youtube instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluzhammer Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 Maybe .... Jimmy has been putting us on all these years and actually preferred P90's to humbuckers for that signature tone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unionman Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 Mike Campbell is a fantastic guitarist, loved his playing since their first album I bought when it came out. I wonder if it's the magic of the Telecaster, seems like he used a stock one on that album and others, not sure about the amp; would find it hard to believe it would be through those Thomas Organ Voxes since I think those sound awful. I wonder what amps he uses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FirstMeasure Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 I saw Micheal Campbell in his own band open up for Little Feat. He was fricken Great. It was like watching a Vintage Guitar Show, complete with full song Demos. The stuff he wrote was very Yardbird-esque. One thing I can say for sure about how he got that Zeppelin like the, it was on Vintage Gear. I don't think he's ever played through anything younger than himself. Great to see him Back with Tom and the Heartbreakers, that's his real calling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bear Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 When they played that for the first time on SNL a few weeks ago he was playing an R9. Some were saying that it was his 59 burst, but they confirmed that it was a reissue. It sounded better on the SG though. I'd like to know what amp pedal combo he's using, because that does have a really cool sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh James Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 That was Killer! I need that album, I still listen to Tom's "solo" album "Wildflowers" and of course "Damn The Torpedoes" J Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeVeeWee Posted May 31, 2010 Share Posted May 31, 2010 I don't think he's ever played through anything younger than himself. Except for his Duesenberg signature...but if I could ever see him on stage playing his vintage gear that would be TOP! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon S. Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 Lovin' the new stuff! Last time I saw them, he was using the Vox stacks along with an old AC-30 and Princeton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twiz Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 Tom Petty is one of my faves. I'm going to see those guys this summer when they play Pittsburgh. That SG Mike Campbell was playing was pretty awesome. I think the universe is telling me I need something with P-90's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heymisterk Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 Chalk up another victory for P-90s. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That first Pic is Eddie Vedder, but still.....what's the idea? He was always such a Vintage Gear nut. I guess even Mike Campbell doesn't want t worry too much about his babies on tour. When I saw him with his own band he must have had a Curator in attendance. He even used an old Tear Drop Vox with built in Effects from the 60's. And, yes, he used the built in effects to great affect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very nice guitars .. Duesenberg, I own one myself and it's close to a gibby, except for the price Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
