A lot of jewels in that soundtrack for sure. I discovered this song via singles as well and I think I agree about it being the best SP song. To me it sets the tone of the feel of the 90s grunge sound. Kind of melancholy as Billy Corgan would say.

Great question! I used the Neck/Middle position on my 5 position switch... a little less "strat-y" than the neck pickup but a little rounder than the middle one... with the amp gain set so it just breaks up a bit with a moderate strum... but as for the specific pickups, my good friend put these in this guitar and I haven't the foggiest what kind they are - I just know he said they were great and it was a brand I had never heard of. They definitely have a little more push than usual strat pickups, and make no attempt at not humming

hey thanks David, welcome to the party :)

To replicate that nice “bell tone”, I use a Blue Lace Sensor for the neck pickup in a ‘77 Strat. To me, it sounds better than a Red Lace Sensor in the bridge location for this song. The V4 Op Amp big muff doesn’t have true bypass, so there’s a slight distorted sound even when it’s clean, so Billy attacks the strings to get it to distort ever so slightly. Run it through a nice clean amp like a JCM 800 with KT88 tubes for example, and let the pedal give you the needed tone. Also, if anyone wants an accurate transcript of the song, I’d suggest getting this book. www.amazon.com/Smashing-Pumpkins-Anthology-Recorded-Version/dp/0634079557/ref=mp_s_a_1_11?keywords=Smashing+Pumpkins&qid=1583865162&s=books&sr=1-11 I’m actually on here looking for someone who has all of the bass lines figured out.

@@sparkyguitar0058 definitely! Yeah, I use that combo too, I believe it’s “selection 2” which is the spot between the neck and middle pickup like you were saying. I most definitely use drop D tuning on Drown, I was watching how he plays it with his recovered Gish strat. It’s dead on to my ear, I have a sample recording I did that I need to upload on KZread. I do have a post on Reddit you can check out. It has Today and Cherub Rock with photos of some of my gear. The intro for Today uses the same pickup position as Drown. But my posted version of Cherub Rock uses the red lace sensor pickup, it would sound way better if I re-recorded it using position 2 as well. www.reddit.com/r/SmashingPumpkins/comments/mnc04j/my_pumpkins_replication_factory/?
