Members voodoopower Posted December 18, 2006 Members Share Posted December 18, 2006 Originally posted by The Idiot Yeah, they use Duncan JBs, not distortions. Uh, nope, they most definitely use Distortions. I have both a JB and a Distortion in my axes and frankly you have to be tone deaf to not be able to pick it out instantly.

Members J Bone Posted December 18, 2006 Members Share Posted December 18, 2006 pretty sure they use both jbs and distortions, in their main guitars think they're jbs, don't think you can get chrome covered distortions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members The Idiot Posted December 21, 2006 Members Share Posted December 21, 2006 I think Billy uses the distortion and the other guy uses the JB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Blackwater Posted December 21, 2006 Members Share Posted December 21, 2006 Masto's tone is pretty simple, but it's the way the use it that makes it so fu*king huge. When I first saw them in 99-00 they were actually using huge racks? Marsahall 9100's and JMP1's. The tone was pretty close to what they sound like today.

Members voodoopower Posted January 1, 2007 Members Share Posted January 1, 2007 Well my RR1 with a SD Distortion absolutely nails the Mastodon tone through my '78 Marshall with Voodoo Amps hex mod. NAILS IT. Thats the same damn tone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members voodoopower Posted January 1, 2007 Members Share Posted January 1, 2007 Originally posted by Nightgaunt Nice. Wish I had an RR1, damn you! Yeah man, not only is an RR1 its a Black RR1, U.S.A. Rhodes with all the trimmings. I got it in about 1992 and its been my main axe up till I got a Jackson JJ1 which I absolutely adore for mad power chords. Still the RR1 is the best playing guitar I have ever tried, ever. I think those era Jacksons which are USA made are something special. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back in 92 I paid 1400 for it fresh from the factory. Good luck though. Jacksons are the only guitars I will buy. They are just aweosme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are just aweosme Up until now I've been an Ibanez man, but since only endorsed artists can get a custom guitar off them, and there's no guitar available that's anywhere near the specs I want, it's time to defect I think.The custom shop is cheaper than you'd think to be honest.

Members Nightgaunt Posted January 1, 2007 Members Share Posted January 1, 2007 Originally posted by voodoopower Thats totally cool. At some point I would like to get a couple more models. Maybe a Soloist. Also I really like their natural finishes. Those prices are not bad at all. PS I got my JJ1 U.S.A. Scott Ian signature for $650 USD in 2001 from ebay. Came in flawless. That's a shockingly good deal. God bless eBay. I'd like an RR and a soloist. I fancy myself some neck-thru action Gotta get the RR first though, 'cause it looks too metal to pass up.

You know, the shape is something you either love or hate, but regardless, the damn fretboards on the RR1's are incredible. Just so easy to play, its a shredder for sure.
