From John Eden (Precious PUp on the main Quo forum)
Take a nice Travis Bean with new strings.
Warm her neck up to room temperature.
Jack cord her hi output into a direct injection box and straight into the mic pre on the board. Which in this case was a custom made console by Philips.Make sure the channel fader is down. Assign your group out. Now crank the mic pre amp gain flat out. Gently ease that fader up an inch !!
Doesn't work on all boards and on many it's the way to blow up your pre amp but I was feeling frisky that day!
It was really a combination of the high output TB/ desk overdrive and Francis' technique. No amp used. Only other time Ive used this was with Micky Moody on Graham Bonnets track Liar there the board was an MCI 500 and I did blow some op amps in the process. Hope this answers TheGreenTele post
