Matthew Healy's Effects Pedals
In this interview with Music Radar, Matty Healy and Adam Hann talk about their guitar pedals and how they replicate the studio effects. Matt talks about some of the gear he uses: "I’m not as technical. I’ve got an Electro-Harmonix Clone Theory chorus, the Boss compressor, an Analogman Sun Face fuzz pedal, two small EHX Holy Grails and a Boss DD-3 delay. At the moment, I’m playing a Blackstar combo, the Artisan 30. Again, it’s very transparent. Then I’ve got a ’65 Mustang, a ’67 Mustang, a ’68 Mustang, and a ’78 Mustang." Original source here.

Matthew Healy uses a custom-made dual pedal, the Pigeon FX Queer, which combines a modified VORG Warp Sound F-502 with a Russian Big Muff. This pedal is designed to achieve tones reminiscent of My Bloody Valentine and is named after a novel by William S. Burroughs. This setup is featured on his Instagram account.
