Hello and welcome to Trabantland…
This site is a place to collect and share some of what I’ve learned over the years in the search for U2/Edge guitar tones. Right now it has been focused on some Edge-related DIY electronics projects, but I’m hoping to add more information regarding the obsessive quest to unravel the mysteries of The Edge’s guitar sounds in the future.
Cheers and I hope you enjoy your visit!
Some of my U2/Edge-inspired Recordings and Videos are found here:

If you have any questions you can contact me through the form below.
Best Regards,

I have the FA-1, TC dual band parametric which really gets me close. What is Edge’s effects chain that he used for Joshua tree? do you know???
Thanks,
Alex
Hi Alex,
He uses different guitars and effect chains for different songs – it’s not the same for the whole album. If I had to, I’d guess most of that album was recorded using the Korg SDD-3000 delay. (It doesn’t sound much like the Electro-Harmonix Memory Man to me, and 1986 is probably too early for the TC2290). Tone-wise, you can’t go wrong with a Stratocaster into SDD-3000 into a Vox AC30.
Hi,
I would love to get on a list if you have them for your pre-amp pedal…please send me any info that you have and what I need to do to proceed
Hi Sean, Thanks. If you can contact me through the Contact/About link I’ll send you an email with all the details.
Cheers,
Dave
Hey Dave,
what’s the current draw for the SDD-3KP and for the FA-2 respectively?
Regards,
John
