does anyone know what Incubus uses as a effect in their song "the warmth"? It sounds like it's actually 2 effects
"How can we justify spending so much on destruction and so little on life?" Matthew Good

"The white dove is gone, the one world has come down hard, so why not share the pain of our problems, when all around are wrong ways, when all around is hurt, i'll roll up in an odd shape and wait, untill the tide has turned.....with anger, i'm dead weight, i'm anchored"- IME, God Rocket (Into the Heart of Las Vegas) ^ Some say this song is about a terrorists thoughts before 911

"Pray for the sheep" Matt Good
"But it's alright, take the world and make it yours again" Matt Good

I felt it in the wind, and i saw it in the sky, i thought it was the end, i thought it was the 4th of July.

"Hold on, hold on children, your mother and father are leaving, hold on, hold on children your best freind's parents are leaving, leaving,.......*AHHH*! " - Death From Above - Black History Month

So, I've decided I'm going to get one of two Epiphone guitars...

Les Paul Standard Plus
Image
Either as is, or with gold hardware (just not sure how the gold will look with the cream colours)

Les Paul Custom Plus
Image
Either as is, or with cream plasticware (just not sure how the gold will look with the cream colours)

EDIT: cream and gold (just so I can see them all together)
Image

I have to find out on Monday about the pricing of each, though I know they had a Standard Plus in the store on sale for $599.
