That Little Wing clip was awesome, the guy on the blue Strat played some fairly tasty stuff too!
Exemplifies why Lane was SO good - even when he played fast it still sounds great and not like Michael Angelo, for example, just playing mechanically.
For me, he's one of the absolute greats. The...
That's always been their kinda thing though, so no surprise there. I saw them a few years ago with Whitesnake opening and they blew them off stage for me. Whitesnake were good, but Leppard are the best example of a band making music FOR huge shows and you can definitely tell the difference.
It's just something that I've been wondering about - basically how Ed replicated his no.1 Marshall sound in a live setting.
I suppose if his no.1 was stock but variac'd, or with different transformers it wouldn't be too hard to do that with the live amps?
Saw some pics of Eddie's fav Marshall and wall of Marshalls in loads of other pics etc... from back in the day, but I was wondering if anyone knows what the setup with the amps was?
I suppose he wouldn't have taken his fav on the road so would every amp be variac'd live? Was the wall of cabs a...
Wow, that was AWFUL haha!
The Scorpions one wasn't much better. 80's rock is my favourite genre, but when they cover older rock songs it just never works for me. Lynch Mob's "Tie Your Mother Down" is another horrible example.
Got the Polytune 2 black version and it's the best pedal tuner I've owned.
Set it to strobe mode and it's accurate to 1 cent, rather than 5 in the regualr mode. Noticed someone saying that the poly mode didn't seem accurate for them, but I find I just use it live inbetween songs for a quick...
Not a massive Satch fan, but checked this out because of this post and I must say the production is superb. The guitar tone on Crazy Joey is absolutely brilliant.
The best-produced instrumental album is still Passion and Warfare in my book.
Can't really work it out, or am i being stupid? If the string vibration is getting amplified through the pickups through a magnet how is the tone of the body/neck wood contributing to that? Is the pickup "hearing" the tone of the woods?
Thanks, just thought I'd ask!

SOTT isn't too bad, Coverdale's never been an original lyricist, so that's not up for debate. Maybe a bit too much keys on that album (Sounds like Passion and Warfare sometimes), but I suppose Vai was a good fit considering the climate of rock at the time and he certainly brings it with his...
I use a preamp/poweramp for my rig and I would definitely use the poweramp and the cab at least, as it's closer to a traditional rig and is good for a bit of stage volume too for a fuller sound. Take a monitor as well (I don't think two is necessary myself), and set it up at the front of the...
Bad Boy Live is on Spotify though if you're going down the streaming route. Unreal guitar sound on that album, I don't know which I prefer - the modded Marshalls or the Colesiums for tone...
Yeah, I love the tones the ADA can get, the first Skid Row and White Lion albums were doine with it too I think. Is it midi switchable to go with an fx unit?
Cheers for the responses, guys, but what are we saying about the Prophesy or even the Line 6 PRO X rack?
