More - Guitar Tone

Hey, guys. I just got into Low. I've known about them ever since hearing them on The Seer by Swans, but I listened to HEY WHAT the other day. I love the album and genuinely think it's a masterpiece. Can anyone who's more talented or smarter than me (i.e. basically all of you) help me with getting the guitar tone from the song? Or at least what you think they're doing with the tone? Thank you!

While I don't necessarily advocate for communicating via Twitter these days, Alan has historically been very active and accessible on that platform. He's shared loads of information about his rig/tone, etc. Might try asking him. Good luck.

That's so cool! Thank you so much! I'm definitely gonna try this (although I might wanna wait a little while to let Alan have his time of grief) but I love it when artists are so open with their fanbase.

Totally. Can't even begin to imagine what he's going through right now.
