When grunge first exploded on the pop culture scene, I was a college student flailing around in pursuit of an English degree I had less passion for than I did for music.
Wood’s untimely death at the age of 24, only days before his band’s debut album release, shook the close-knit Seattle music scene and remained a source of angst and inspiration for a genre of music that shaped youth culture of the 1990s. I thought about when Cornell and Staley said goodbye to their friend Andy Wood, lead singer of Mother Love Bone, after he overdosed on heroine in 1990. Alice in Chains singer Layne Staley died in 2002 at the age of 35, and Nirvana front man Kurt Cobain’s death in 1994 had resonated around the globe. I remember thinking, there’s only one left, referring to Eddie Vedder, lead singer for Pearl Jam, and lone survivor of the four seminal grunge bands that rose to fame in the early 1990s whose lead singers passed away much too soon. As the lead singer of Soundgarden and a pioneer of early 1990s grunge music, his voice revealed an unbridled pain and joy backed up by the raw, guitar-driven rock emanating from the Seattle, Washington music scene.

Something I did re creating Kurt Cobain’s Vandalism Strat. You can start think about the very same pedals your favourite guitarist used to get that exact sound tone you’re after. Then you have the options of grabbing a handful of pedals or get a better amp or both and you’ll get the sound you’re after. These are better quality guitars and ones you’ll be able to use forever but they’re not necessary to get the grunge sound.īy kicking it up a notch you can add a humbucker pick up to your guitar at the bridge position if you’re handy with a soldering iron that is, for not a lot of money. You’ll notice that I haven’t mentioned that that you need to get a Fender Jaguar, Jazzmaster or Mustang. You’ll instantly hear the similarties when you play your favourite grunge songs. As you can see you can start to get the grunge sound with just a good used amplifier with overdrive, effects channels with a reverb option.
