What instrument and setup would you use to emulate Kurt Cobain's voice.

My best result was with the Big Electric Lead Guitar, suppressing the Echo.

Who has a better approximation ?

I assume you're trying to do a Nirvana cover? Find someone who sounds like him or just fudge it. I don't think you can really emulate his voice well with effects...

RAMMS+EIN, maybe :p
 
I found a good "voice" using the strings with guitar amplifiers. Not perfect, but interesting.

I'm not trying to copy him, I just want to get the feeling of his voice.
 
Ok, sarcasm aside. I'd have to play with GB, but off the top of my head, I wonder if some southern rock guitar would work. Dark and with distortion.

You could also import a Nirvana track, maybe something from the unplugged shows and use the actual vocals as a test template. Find the sound that goes best.
