And gear-wise, you’ve been spotted playing through a Roland JC-22 Jazz Chorus amp with some Boss pedals...
“The amp is probably my favorite piece of gear. I think it’s the best thing I’ve ever bought. I got the smaller one and it’s small but could still fill a stadium. You never need it on full volume… ever. I keep it at one or two, even for live shows the absolute max I turn up to will be three.
“I love the chorus and reverb too, it’s just such a good sound. I have the Boss DD-3 digital delay… it sounds really good and it’s very reliable. Then there’s the blue MXR Analog Chorus, and I also have an Electro-Harmonix Canyon Delay, which has a lot of different effects on it.
“I always use delay, I guess! I recently got a Big Muff pedal, which is what I used for the Jimmy Fallon performance as the main tone. The fuzz seems to be working better for me right now.
“And those are all the pedals I’ve ever used. I only got a pedalboard together when I was touring in 2019. Before that, it was just a few in a bag thrown on stage. I’m still experimenting with them.”
Total Guitar, “Nilüfer Yanya: “It could be the most amazing guitar in the world, but it only matters how you’re playing it”” by Ellie Rogers (February 17, 2022)
“When it comes to pedals, I still only know what I’m trying out. I’ve actually been really getting into the fuzz pedal I’ve got, a Big Muff. I’m almost at the point where I need a different fuzz now because it’s too much of one thing.
“Before that it was mainly distortion or overdrive. I really like delays. I’ve also got a looper where you have to make your own patches and mix it in from your laptop or computer and then add it, so I'm getting my head around that.“
