KT Tunstall - Rig rundown

StuartMac290

She's an outstanding musician. I know that when she turned up to play on the Simple Minds acoustic album they were knocked out by her playing.

Mind blown.

She's awesome.

Extra points for a shout out to the Legendary Shack Shakers too!

Edit: If you get the chance to see the Shack Shakers live, do. Some bands have a sort of wild energy. LSS are positively *feral.*

Probably my favourite rig rundown so far, and I’m not a massive fan. She seems really down to earth and into her effects.

Watched little bits so far and enjoying it.

Though I did wrily smile when she said she was a mini Mozart because she nearly got distinction at grade 1 piano... Especially as Mozart didn't play piano

Fantastic.... she's really geeky about it too .

I especially like her use of combined amp and DI sounds, both with acoustic and electric guitar. I've often done something similar, but never as well as that or with as much control over it - usually just a simple split.

Watched this last night. Really interesting to see she’s still using the Head Rush looper which is pretty primitive by today’s standard. Nice story about the famous Jools appearance as well. 

I had one and it was really easy to use and sounded great but couldn't save loops. Sold it and got a Boss RC3 that I didn't get on with even with the extra Bespeco switches I had.  I should have kept the Headrush.

It's still my favourite looper as well - so simple, intuitive and as close to foolproof as a live looper can get. I don't currently have one, but if I needed a looper again I'd buy one without even thinking about it - they go for ridiculously little now too.

Suddenly I see, what she's trying to achieve.

I saw them supporting Robert Plant about a decade ago. Wild show; came out to meet the punters afterwards which was nice. Still got my LSS t shirt that I woke up wearing on the sitting room floor

I also loved the delay sound. Unfortunately mine was a bit noisy and since I didn't use the looper that much, I sold it long ago.
