I realize that the sound Gary Moore gets from his Strat is most likely from all of the Fender and Marshall combos, cabs, and heads in the background, but I was wondering what type of pedal I could buy to get a sound like this.
His tone is literally music to my ears.
Check out his performance too, he's a great player.

I would guess the Ibanez Tube Screamer. (SRV used this as well along with Marshall and Fender combos)
Also keep in mind the gutar strings. I believe he uses Dean Markleys
.10 - .52.
I thought Gary played strickly Les Pauls?
Burstbuckers I believe.
I have that DVD, it's the "Strat Pack"

Also stand outs are Hank Marvin, Joe Walsh, and of course Gilmour with Strat # 00001.
Moore has just nailed one of the meanest nasties Strat Tones every right there. And yes he was mostly a LP guy but rumor was he broke out a strat now and again. Our best guess on the tone was mostly a cranked Marshall JCM800. What ever it is, it is amazing.
I don't think that tone comes in a pedal. That tone is in his shoes.
It appeared as if that tone was being sucked straight from his face.
That's some nice stuff. I'd imagine the amp's pretty bright as he's on the front pickup. A Marshall/TS will do that for sure.
He plays (ed) the Peter Green Les Paul, ES-355, Gary Moore Les Paul and the good old Fender Strat!Quote:
