I am a huge Alter Bridge and Tremonti fan, I ran across these videos

He's got a Voodoo dual V-Rock and an Axe Fx 2





 
all three vids working now, had an issue at first
 
Hey Brett, thanks that was great. How you bonding with the Axe FX II? We never got to try that one out, the others were so great.
 
Cool to see his rig. Thanks for posting. Can't stand him as a player or writer though.
 
Saw Alter Bridge and Steel Panther recently, Tremonti's tone was awful - No mids and just fizzy gain. He was out played by a guy with a cheap Kramer, 1 head, 1 quad & a wig, & will someone unplug Tremonti's damn wah!
 
Many thanks for posting this as this is the first I have seen this. We met up with Mark last summer/fall when he was on tour in upstate NY, which is when he began using the V-Rock Dual Lead. Mark and I were talking yesterday regarding our soon-to-be-released "ODS" Series. We are going to synch up in NYC so he can demo it and so we can service his V-Rock.


Thanks again for posting;

Wow that rig is ridiculously complex! I have a ton of respect for Mark Tremonti and he seems like a genuinely nice guy, but as above when i saw AB live his tone was horrible...

Wow, that's a bummer. His tone was incredible when I saw him on his last swing through Michigan.
 
I'm not a Tremonti hater, and I dig some of his music, but I can't stand to watch him play. It's ego and machismo to the max. Like the world's best frat-boy guitarist.

A famous musician with a big ego?

Don't say. :2thumbsup:

Suppose you can't watch any of the guitar hero's then huh?

Well... yeah that's exactly what I'd expect, the guy in Steel Panther may be a total cheeseball but he can play, tremonti can pick... and that's about it. One of the few guys I literally can't stand to listen to. Every time someone posts a clips "proving" he can play I just shake my head that anyone likes that bs. Myles Kennedy is miles better than Tremonti, too.

Maybe its his brand of showmanship. obviously it keeps him employed. ;)

Clearly he is likely better than all of us on here at making $$$ doing music but this literally sounds like one of those yngwie/petrucci shreds videos to me. I cannot fathom people liking that.

There are plenty guitar heros who don't give off the level douchness that Tremonti does. Sorry my opinion offended you. :cry:
