Last Nite
The bright, hammered riff of Last Nite is Albert Hammond Jr's white Fender Stratocaster into a loud, clean Fender Hot Rod DeVille — not, despite the persistent myth, a Crate VC30. Producer Gordon Raphael documented the DeVilles himself: one Sennheiser MD 421 per amp on opposite sides of the basement room at Transporterraum, straight into an API preamp with no EQ. The grit is amp headroom plus a light overdrive, and the two interlocking guitars are panned hard left and right.
