Rig
Not on view
Tom Morello has used this rig and pedalboard through-out his career with the bands Rage Against the Machine and Audioslave. He uses it to achieve his signature mix of DJ-style scratches, sound effects, wild pitch-shifting bends, and classic rock tones. Morello is known for both for his extensive use of effects and for his techniques such as using the kill switch on his guitar—which turns the signal on and off and creates a stutter effect—and scratching the strings with an Allen wrench. His rig, which consists of a basic amplifier setup along with a customized pedalboard, is exhibited here with some of his most-used guitars.
