Members Kid_A Posted February 18, 2009 Members Share Posted February 18, 2009 Wowza... Always been a fan of them, but never got to see them live... but wow Calebs tone is lush! ES-325 into a Matchless DC30.... hmm i got a Vox AC30 and a Burny Les Paul, maybe that sound is the semi hollow sound? No video of it on youtube yet but ill keep looking, anyway, anymore info on their rigs? FX? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Lonely Tourist Posted February 18, 2009 Members Share Posted February 18, 2009 Too bad they suck. There. I said it. All of HCFX can take turns punching me in the balls now. He does have cool gear though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Teahead Posted February 18, 2009 Members Share Posted February 18, 2009 The 325 and its mini-humbuckers are pretty much all you'd need into the AC30. Especially with the bridge pickup and Top Boost channel. I use my 325 into AC30 with the band and it reeks KoL tones when used that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members T3 Posted February 19, 2009 Members Share Posted February 19, 2009 i liked the first couple of albums... i dunno, the last one does feel a little more like it's been written for the radio, but it isn't that bad. i'm pretty bored of the singles now though...

Anyway... lots of hate for kings of leon here strange, i think they have been a fantastic, consitant, ever changing band. Maybe im not hip anymore? Didn't you hear? Un-hip is the new hip! The KoL connection almost put me off buying the 325, especially since I've used the AC30 since '03, really glad I got it though. The pickups have similar output to my Tele, more treble than 'buckers and lots of jangle and chime to the bridge with that trapeze tail. Gratuitous ES-325 shot...

Holy {censored} that song & band are EPIC WIN!! The fact they did it a few years back is even more pwnage on all the crap nowdays! Britpop bored me senseless in 1995 , and the re-hashing of it nowdays is even worse. 14 years is way too early to be "retro". 30 years, MINIMUM.
