Favorite Guitar Tone?

Two words: Brian May. wow. He's also so distinctive it isn't funny.

Forums: The Bar,

Speaking of Brian May... Tama have you heard the Foo Fighter's cover of floyd's have a cigar? I heard that Brian May plays on it.

who cares? dave drums on it.

yes Brian plays on it, its on the Mission Impossible 2 soundtrack.
Brian also played on their song 'Tired' on their latest album 1x1

Isn't that on a movie soundtrack? I'm trying to remember it...

mission impossible II

The guitar sound (particularly when they lean on the whammy bar near the start) on the Smashing Pumpkin's track 'Hummer' (off Siamese Dream) is amongst the best guitar noises ever put to CD. In fact, most of that album has stonkingly good guitar sounds.

And there's always the Beatles ... the leady twiddles that George plays in 'She Said She Said' are magic.

I really like the guitaring on Californication by the Chili peppers....It goes really nicely with Flea's bass...

I also really like Kurt's Guitaring in In Bloom. Thats really good.
And The General Electric (the song) had some huge riffs...also Comfort me and Semi-Normal....
umm... Oh Yeah!! And Marcus Sounds awesome in So us Is This...and The Queens Of The Stoneage riffs are always good, especially in The Sky is Fallin' and Hangin' Tree

//and The Queens Of The Stoneage riffs are always good, especially in The Sky is Fallin' and Hangin' Tree

I was just about to say that when i saw your comment :p But I'd have to go with "Up In Hell" from Desert sessions Vol7&8. The rifs at begining are really awesome

Josh Homme does has a distinctive tone. He uses very rare Ovation solidbodys (made in one year in the 80's) of which there are only about 250 worldwide. They sound like a fucking horn!

I love it (it scares me that I know this much, though)

Aw shit. An illiterate day. I meant "really does have".

marcus' tone in mind dependancy is nice..
(dont yell @ me for bad spelling)

alister parker.......when it comes to tone this is the man.

Ah yes, John Halvorsen too.

oh yes the sign says it all.

My tone is the best. :P

The Big Muff sound... mmm... can't get enough.

big muff smig muff. People usually only like big muff if they haven't tryed a hotcake.
Then after they get bored of only a hotcake they call up mr crowther and go "paul can you design me the ultimate distortion pedal called "the wilsonic""

it arrives on monday.

I WANT ONE ! ! !

Sorry tom. You wouldn't be able to handle the power of my wilsonic. haha you need 4 amps to use it.

You underestimate me. I can handle it.

PS: I don't wanna steal you're tone as I'm rather happy with mine.

It just sounds fucking coooool is all.

When we play in AK soon i will let you use it.

Fuck i cant wait to get it. yumm yumm yumm

Big Muff and Orange...

hotcake jansens. mmmmm jansens.

Steve Albini on Shellacs Action Park

Duane the fuckn man Denison, the slide guitar sounds on the Liar and Goat albums, Chris Whitley's electric album "Din Of Ecstacy", all good soulful painful nasty steely slashy slide guitar sounds...
