    Default What are your favorite sounds comprised of?

    What are some combinations of guitars and amp your favorites have used....

    Les Paul w/ P90s into a Princeton Reverb
    Strat into a Vox AC30
    Strat into a Tweed Bassman
    Les Paul w/ HBs into a Dual Showman
    Les Paul w/ HBs into a Diezel
    SG w/ P90s into a Laney
    SG w/ HBs into a Laney
    Les Paul w/ HBs into a Sunn

    and my favorite...

    SG w/ P90s into an early SS amp. :O This is what led to the thread... yes... my favorite tone came from a solid state amp... suck on that! haha

    I prefer the sound of opening a beer. Nothing beats that sound.

    My favourite guitar tones are whatever sounds good to my ears at the moment I am listening to it. It would be foolish to codify it.

    That being said, I like tones that have good 'diction', as a friend of mine put it once -- dirty but with a lot of definition at the same time.

    A recent tone that BLEW ME AWAY was seeing Wishbone Ash last week. Their new lead guitarist has tone out the @ss! Les Paul, pups way low, a couple of drive pedals, and two Bassman (?) combos wide open ... blissful coming out of his hands!

    Pretty much the entire Digital Versatile Doom DVD from HIM. Linde's guitar sounds are awesome. Love that disc.

    Any of my guitars straight into either my Cornford Hurricane or MK50... sheer bliss. I only use my effects to get me closer to the sounds of the tracks we cover.
