The last few months, I’ve been listening to a lot of The Raveonettes. I only have Raven in the Grave for now, but I’ve been really liking that album. Very dark. Reverb with reverb added it to it. Vocals that sound a million miles away. Nice easy grooves that make me feel like I’m on a road trip every time I listen to it. The band is a 3 piece, with Sharon Foo laying down the vox and Sune rose Wagner playing guitar. This band is from Denmark… and when I listen to these guys, I’m reminded of Jesus and Mary Chain in a pretty serious way.
Today, I wanted to break down Sune Rose Wagner’s board. For those of you that are familiar with the Raveonettes, you’ll see some of the pieces of his tone puzzle. I want to note that this photo is the most recent I could find (2009). There are some TC Electronic pedals there, but this looks to be Sune trying out some TC Electronic samples. I’ll still include them in the breakdown though.

Please let me know if anything is missing or incorrect. If you have a more recent photo.. please let me know by commenting or emailing me!
UPDATE
Got word about the June 2011 Premier Guitar article. Has some changes to the pedal line
He’s using a ZVex Fuzz Factory and a Boss DD-20 Giga Delay. Looks like the Boss RV-3 is off the board.

Premier Guitar ran another feature on Sune recently in which he stated that he uses two RV-5 pedals, commenting that it’s the most accurate spring reverb simulation he’s ever heard, so the grey boss pedal under the nova delay might actually be a second RV-5 and not an RV-3 as you have here.
