I thought maybe his amp change to the Vintage Modern would make a difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members thefyn Posted April 21, 2011 Members Share Posted April 21, 2011 I was introduced to Dave Martone playing at NAMM. I loved his playing, but his tone was really bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members killgrace Posted April 21, 2011 Members Share Posted April 21, 2011 I actually knida liked Rany's tone...Just because it was so unique and different. All those strange upper mids going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Me too. His tone was aggressive with plenty of overtones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Arr0wHead Posted April 21, 2011 Members Share Posted April 21, 2011 Disagree on Gilbert. Always been one of my favorite shredder tones, and it's nothing but improved on the new album. Agree on Rhodes. I liked the TONE itself, but it's mix and the effects used kinda ruins the guitar on all those songs for me. But it was the 80's, so I don't really blame Randy for it. I bet if he were here today, his tone would make Zack Wylde sound like tiny tim and his ukelele. My first though it Mattias Eklund (sp?) from Freak Kitchen. Amazing playing, but incredibly fuzzy and mushy tone. All so he can do way too many whammy harmonics, which is the least interesting thing in his repetoire. Also, both guitarists from Pain of Salvation (but moreso Daniel). Such amazing playing, but really - stop with the damned piezo buddy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members ***1776*** Posted April 21, 2011 Members Share Posted April 21, 2011 Dio-era Vivian Campbell. Alexi Laiho. Vivan Campbell in Dio, you serious? The tone on Holy Diver (especially rainbow in dark) is classic Marshall/Hard Rock 101 toaanz Im not the biggest Randy 'tone' fan either, his tone was a lil overdone at times imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members RSBro Posted April 21, 2011 Members Share Posted April 21, 2011 joey d Also pretty much the Hysteria record- when they play that {censored} now with their current gear the songs are still but sound pleasing, for once! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members -Assy- Posted April 21, 2011 Members Share Posted April 21, 2011 I don't know what he used on Temple of Shadows, but I loved it. A bunch of direct in stuff. He only uses the VH100R on one of his solo CDs. Guess he learned his lesson, sounded {censored}ing awful. Sounds like {censored} when he plays live with it too.

Members soundgardener75 Posted April 21, 2011 Members Share Posted April 21, 2011 I'm a big fan of Megadeth, but holy hell, their tones suck. Scott Ian sounds far better than any of Dave Mustaine's rhythm toanz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOVE the music and intensity, but, holy paper-thin MG toanz, batman!!! EDIT: i think the post-production and compression on that album ultimately {censored}ed the guitar tone and made it super thin sounding Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
