@bloodclaat1976 In Guitar World May 1992, Ty said he used an Alesis Midiverb, Ibanez Dual Delay and a DOD Analog Delay.

I have an L5, and at some point also had a Strat Elite. I still could not sound like Ty. His tone is in his hands. He could play through a little Pignose amp and make it sound like a million bucks.

His early tone is just wicked---in a good way, of course.

anybody know tys mesa dual rec settings for the SWEET SPOT ?

[UncleTito72]

I have an L5. I can honestly say I've never been able to make it sound like Ty.

[bloodclaat1976]

I've always wondered if Ty used a sort of chorus or light flange on the "original" Lab-era tone? Or possibly double tracking? it sounds just ever so slighly chorused...anyone know for sure?

[nylonsteel]

Great interview. Great to see the Lava Cable Clear Connect cable in his Lab Series amp.
