Never got into this song, until I watched this video. Great job Frank.
 
I am surprised that any of you guys can receive a "singnature" sound on that particular record...
The playing is great...
The songwritting is great too...
Tone is bad imo...
Too much reverb...too much delay...

great record...
not great tone imo...
 
If that was a JP2C, I would go to my local music store to get one now. Great tone!

As a JP2C owner... imho yes you can.

:yes: :yes: :yes:

FAIL for no use of violin bow :thumbsdown:









Totally kidding, that was awesome!
I love that run at 4:26- was that the actual note for note from the original? Most people- including the replacement players in the band- don't play the exact notes. I would love to learn that part and play it as tight as it is here.
 
I’ll throw this in the ring. It’s just an iPhone clip, but you can easily tell what it sounds like in the room.

 
I think the biggest factor here that most are overlooking, is HIS '78 Les Paul Custom, and HIS talent. Most of '87 Whitesnake, and the first Blue Murder album was all Coliseum.

Yes, you’re right of course, but any Mark series Boogie will get you close enough, the rest is pickup, speakers, the studio, his hands and talent, etc...

That sounds great, very big tone there, sounds massive.
 
The amp in question was:

Positive Grid's BIAS.

In other words, a DAW plugin. :lol: :LOL:

Set to the Boogie MkIIc+

Sounds very close! Nice playing too.

But, unfortunately that plugin won't get you pant legs flappin in front of a 4X12 with a tube amp pushing that tone with some serious air.
And that's the fun part for me.
