Started listening to this album because of this, wow I never realised Alcatraz were that good really, the album is great! I was always a bit put off because Bonnett has never been my favourite singer tbh🤷🏻♂️
Vai's tone is excellent too and his playing style is all there pretty much. Really...
I have a TC Plethora 3 for Chorus, Vibrato and a Delay plus a Flanger pedal and a Dumble clone I'm happy with, so what could I add? Something a bit weird and wacky, or maybe boring like a compressor that I've never used in my rig ever?
Sensible-ish suggestions welcome!
Just looked up Jimi Bell, wow what a player! Love his style for sure and so clean 👌🏼
I still think Zakk was equally as good a choice though and his solos on No Rest... are the proof; some of his best playing and riffing!
Been listening to the first four Tesla albums recently and not only do they kick ass but they have some great guitar sounds. Anyone know what they were using around this time? Can't find much on it. Cheers!
For me Jake was an amazing player with a great look, stage presence and easily stands up technique/skill wise with Randy and Zakk, but... I never thought the riffs were as memorable as the other two and his tone wasn't that great on his two albums (Not entirely his fault of course).
Btw, Rock...
Sounding killer! Just as aside, what's Dave like to work with? I hear over a few interviews he's very professional and pays his bands well, but can be very demanding (As is his right as a legend of course).
Cheers!
Thought this came out sounding pretty decent for some improv.
Friedman Runt 20 with a BB Pre for solo boost and a bit of delay from the TC Plethora (Great pedal)!
