john frusciante, Stevie ray, Dave aguirre.

IMO, my tone stayed constant throughout the years, regardless of what i used. i think it was more of the licks that i used that made me [think that i] sound like them.

feeling ko lang. :)

How about these, mark:


"...the meek shall inherit nothing..."

"...she held my balls in a vise but she left the [sausage], I guess it's still hooked on but now it shoots too quick..." (Bobby Brown goes down)

"Disco boy, thats the way it goes, so wipe your nose and try it again to get a little pussy tomorrow...disco boy, you're no one understands - but thank the lord that you still got hands to help you do the jerking that will wipe out the disco sorrow." (Disco Boy)

Try out these tracks for the Zappa tone that I'm shooting for:

"Magic Fingers" (200 motels)
"Chunga's Revenge" (Chunga's Revenge)
"Muffin Man (live)" (Baby Snakes OST)
"Sharleena" (Chunga's Revenge)
"Five Five Five" (Shut up and play your guitar Disc 1)
"I'm the slime (live)" (his guesting on SNL)

As for Mclaughlin, I like his tone on these LPs:

with Miles Davis:

Tribute to Jack Johnson
Bitches Brew
Live-Evil

Mahavishnu Orchestra:

Inner Mounting Flame
The Lost Trident Sessions

Yung kay Paul Gilbert medyo madali lang, vintage lead channel sa Bandit tapos konti EQ tapos mid pickup nung RG ko, medyo kuha yung tone niya sa Intense Rock I intro at Down to Mexico.  Medyo manipis tunog niya don e.  

Yng kay Slash at JoSat work in progress.

Eric Johnson - lahat!eheh :lol: Finesse, Fat lead tones
Wes Montgomery - Smoothness
Andy Timmons - Aggresiveness
Jeff Beck - Expressiveness
SRV - Rawness
BB King / Clapton - Round tone (or woman tone - tama ba?) :?
Kotzen - Fluidity

As far as gears are concerned naman, i'm heavily influenced by EJ's guitar and amp setup.

i based my tone on, who else, EJ and EVH. but i already deviated from that a bit and created my own tone. sa wiring, very similar kay EJ. for my driven tone, ewan ko hehe natripan ko lang yung sound ng Maxon and TS808 na cascaded e and i used em ever since. i also have a semi-driven tone that i copied from The Edge of U2 because i play in a church and need an ambient guitar sound. i stole my clean tone setup from markflo hehehe he gave me an idea of how to set up my clean tone route better. so i guess nagnakaw ako sa magnanakaw hehehe..

happy birthday pareng markflo! :)

Distorted, I have always liked PG's (Bump Ahead) and EVH's (Balance) tone, so I guess I am unconsciously striving for something similar, Not too heavy but round and full-bodied. Effective distortion tone imo as it allows your notes to sing and chords to ring almost brilliantly :)

Overdriven, it has to be SRV's bumpy and biting overdriven tone for me.

Cleans, a tele plugged into a decent amp, enough said :D

Neck tone ko yung sa solo ng payaso ng Razorback.

Pag pakapalan ng muka na lead (Bridge tone), more on Vai tone.

Dati paminsan-minsan din Morello tone ginagamit ko sa mga leads (Mga baliw na solos niya) nung may Zoom 707II pa ko.

Sa clean wala hahaha kung ano lang yung clean version nung vai tsaka payaso tone ko.
