How do I get a Nirvana sound on guitar?

How do you get a Nirvana sound on the guitar?

  • You know, for Smells Like Teen Spirit, Heart Shaped Box, Lithium, and Come As You Are, and all their other songs. I already have a Fender Stratocaster, and a small Junior G-DEC amp (getting a new one soon, more expensive one soon).

  • Answer:

    Kurt used an Electro-Harmonix BigMuff for Nevermind (also a ProCo Rat); and a Boss DS2 afterwards (In Utero, for example). Earlier on, he used a Boss DS1. Here's a good site, listing Kurt's equipment for more info.

its about the amp. If i had my pick, i would play through any marshall amp with its high gain and something like a vox for some second overdrive dub.
