Title: Tone... does it come from your Gear or from you?
Post by: bluenote on July 02, 2007, 09:19:34 AM
I believe that it comes from you... some tend to disagree.. I believe that you can play through the best gear or the worst gear in the world and still sound like yourself... Ive noticed that some cats here put too much emphasis on gear... what do you guys think...

decent gear = decent tone
good gear = good tone
lotsa practice = great tone

don't go overboard trying to debunk an extreme point of view with another extreme point of view.

eto nanaman? it comes from what you hear in your mind then comes out of your playing, electronics can only augment whats in there and they could not produce something thats none existent.


im also a guy who likes to thinker with lots of devices (check out the link below) but i still believe its biult in your physiology and imagination pang huli na yung type of gears

just like what it says in my signature ...

hirap neto. i think both.

here we go again...

my answer is:  both.  if you've got good gear, but you play bad, then you'll get bad tone.  if you play well but have bad gear, then you might get an okay tone that will pale in comparison to your ideal tone.

decent gear = decent tone
good gear = good tone
lotsa practice = great tone


good gear + lotsa practice = super tone
