Slash's effects"The signal comes back to me here in the pedal board. I do all the pedal switching and I take care of everything besides the wah." (Ace Bergman)
Even if his rack contains many elements, we can not say that Slash is an effect guitar player. He mainly uses his amp reverb, a slight delay, produced by a Boss DD-5 and a graphic equalizer Boss GE-7 to boost his solos. For some parts, he also makes use of a Cry Baby wah pedal ("Mr. Brownstone", "Civil War", "Be The Ball", "Shine", "By The Sword", "Apocalyptic Love") or a Dunlop talk box ("Anything Goes", "Dust And Bones", "Lower", "Get Out The Door", "Watch This", "Carolina", "C'est La Vie"). With Velvet Revolver, Slash has somewhat expanded his range of effects, since he's been playing with the band he sometimes uses an octave Boss OC-2 and a Fernandes sustainer. In 2006, Dunlop released a Slash Signature model: the Cry Baby SW95, a wah pedal equipped with a three-band EQ and a distortion boost.Cry Baby wah
