Delta Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 Blackmore on Fireball. An earthier tone than his later Rainbow years. "Let me stand next to your fire!", Jimi Hendrix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larryz Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 Mr. Mark Strat on Sultans of Swing... +1000 and Richard Thompson on the "Shoot Out The Lights" records. Happy to see someone agrees with me on Sultans...I think the guitar work on this song is perhaps one of the highest and best uses of the Stratocaster phase and clean tones that identifies and pays tribute to one of the ultimate Fender sounds...IMHO. Take care, Larryz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
picker Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 Blackmore on Fireball. An earthier tone than his later Rainbow years. Gotta love the song "No One Came". His playing on that album sounds like he just discovered the Strat/Marshall combination and was trying to figure it out. Always remember that you are unique. Just like everyone else.

Danzilla Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 Speaking of the "ultimate Fender Sound"... I was listening to a Buddy Guy cd yesterday. While I love his passion and his bends and most of his note choice, I can't stand his tone, especially the attack. That is tto me the epitome of the Fender tone- shrill, harsh, trebley. When he hangs onto a note long enough to get past the attack, the sound is ok; and his wah work has a much more palatable tone (to me). I'm not sure if it's the tone, or the playing (probably both); but I love Steve Howe's use of pedal steel. "Toe The Line" from the GTR album; "Gates of Delirium" from Relayer; "To Be Alive" from The Ladder... love it! He's got so many great tones, including his use of the Danelectro Coral Sitar.

Robitaille59 Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 Tone... All time favorite is Zeppelin II...ranging from the crazy violent lead break in "Whole Lotta Love" to the spacy super relaxing solo in "what is and what should never be". Billy Corgan and James Iha got a very wide range of tone on the Pumpkins debut "Gish" also a favorite John Fruciante's clean sound on "under the bridge" Stevie ray vaughn however is the altime tone king IMO with Texas Flood and CSTW.

Creamer298 Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 I always love Zappas super bell-tone flanginess. Specifically on songs like Any Kind of Pain and Outside Now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dvuksanovich Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 I forgot one... Nuno Bettencourt's tone on Pornograffitti is one of my favorites as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharkman Posted August 26, 2010 Share Posted August 26, 2010 Jimmy Page: the guitar solo on Ten Years Gone. Eric Clapton: The solo from Badge. (How many of us have pictured ourselves playing this in front of a huge audience?) David Gilmour: Shine On You Crazy Diamond. Jeff Beck: Live With the Jan Hammer Group (any song from that album). I rock; therefore, I am. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
