That’s the EVH 5153 in a box…. If someone asked me to give an album that shows what the 5153 sounds like, this would probably be the one.


I believe the cab was a Mesa, but sneap might’ve used the matching EVH cab, it’s been so long I can’t remember anymore.

*edit* now that I think about it, im almost 100 percent positive it was the matching EVH cab, with a single sm57….

Are we talking the EVH 5153 50S 6L6 model?

The drummer is bad ass!!!
Big Alex Skolnick fan, he actually
influenced my guitar playing in the technical sense, the most out of all those super good type guitar players in my early spring chicken on the fretboard years.
World class metal players on this one.

Sneap has never used the 50 watts on any record I believe. Plus, this was 2007/2008, that amp didn’t exist then :) but yes, channel 3 of the OG 5153 will get you these types of tones for sure!
 
Anthrax sucks a hoard of dicks...this tune dwarfs those fuck tards. There is enough metal in this song to rebuild the twin towers?



On topic, yeah that tone (and band) slays. I think Meshuggah used the 100 watt OG EVH on their latest album. It absolutely kills live too, saw Revocation at Summer Slaughter a few years back and that's what they used. They had the best tone (except for Cannibal Corpse), followed by Krisiun who also destroyed.
 
Eric was using an Original 5153 back in the day & now is using the 5153 (6L6) Stealth. There are Eric Peterson Rig Rundowns on YT.
