What is Gary Holt using for amps on current Exodus tour?

[67mike]

Saw Exodus and Anthrax a couple days ago.

Great show, but I gotta say Exodus blew me away!

Singer is unreal. Also guitars were just crushing it!

Gary's tone was epic. I heard it was Marshall 2555x's that he is using, but does anyone here know?

PS: Gary gave a person in the Pitt his guitar after the set!!! Lucky bastard.

If Gary has any brains or class I've no doubt he's using the latest modeling technology on a silent stage. So tired of these boomers refusing to step into the future of computerized guitar gear. If I were him I'd just use pre-recorded my parts that way I didn't have to worry about some douchebag who bought tickets spilling beer on my quad cortex.

Well @VonBonfire Griswold, it was nice catching up again but it’s getting late and the kids need to go to bed. Let me get your hat and coat. We’ll see you in another 6 months at the next family shindig

He's been using Jubilees for some time now.

Canadians have a different sense of humor I guess. Glad you had a good time.

For the record I'd feel ripped off if I paid big bucks just to see some once glorious metal band using modelers through the mains. Glad there are guys still doing things the right way.

Looks like 2555x in this video:

Man, I love the bass tone on this track. Hope the album kicks ass throughout.

Both Anthrax and Exodus sounded fricken glorious, but, not sure if Anthrax is using computer rigs????

I couldn't say tbh but I like Exodus a lot more than Anthrax. Anthrax is booked with Megadeth in for a September show in San Antonio. My wife will probably want to go since she is a big Megadeth fan. She bought Dave's latest album and says it's pretty good.

Exodus absolutely blew Anthrax out of the building, not even close. And I have listened to Anthrax since they started.

Exodus singer is a fucking beast!!!!!!!!! Guitars were dialed in to CRUSH HEADS.

Would my Wizzer be able to cop a good 2555x Jube tone?

I just bought a kemper to model the wizzer, but now I need to know how to set the digital wizzer model to sound like a 2555x

A noble goal but you'll still have to sort those IR's out.

You can see his tiny pedalboard in the live video I posted from the show I was at ( not my video btw).

I don't call that tiny, I call that sensible. I kind of chuckle right before I throw up in my mouth a little when I see a dude with a monster board. Blues and Rock music shouldn't be that complicated.

 

[67mike]

Looking at his pedalboard above: I see ? 2 sd-1s and a wah. There seems to be another small metal grey box as well? Any ideas?

Didn't realize you were near Thunder Bay. Right up the north shore....man that's a beautiful area for a drive. Me and the old lady honeymooned up there then went to Memphis a couple months later.
