I’ve always liked Peter Frampton (Humble Pie & solo)...the deep cuts & B-sides, not necessarily all the radio hits.

Anybody familiar with Frampton’s gear…and what gives him that signature bell-like, bright, chimey sound? You can definitely hear the Leslie.

I know I’ll never copy it (certainly not his playing anway), but I’m curious whether he used/uses any common FX or other known gear. It’s probably all custom stuff.

He used one of these (http://guitars.musiciansfriend.com/product/Foxx-Tone-Machine?sku=151031&src=3WFRWXX&ZYXSEM=0&CAWELAID=26018432) in the 70s.
