Amp settings are: -Presence = 8 -Treble = 10 -Middle = 6.5 -Bass = 10 -Master = .25 -Pre-amp = 10 Effects: -BOSS Delay (The red one) = double slap back, as close to 1/4 second as I could guess. -Alesis Microverb (the original 1/2 size rack unit) = Large Room #2, mix at about 3.

@lisaandarron Randy mostly played his '70 cream colored Les Paul Custom and his '79 Karl Sandoval polka dot V both live and in the studio for Ozzy's two albums. Neither had a Floyd Rose. I believe his prototype white Jackson Shark Guitar had a Floyd on it, but I'm not sure. The Jackson guitar came after the recordings of both albums and Jackson didn't mass produce it until after his death.

so randy didnt use a floyd rose? didnt he say in the semnar that the perfect tremolo was a floyd rose?
-
@lisaandarron Yup. Randy used to do this alot and if you listen to the album version of the solo, you can hear the notes are being 'jerked' up, just as if you were pulling up on the tremelo bar. Back then, you couldn't really do that because most bars were seated right on the body of the guitar. They weren't floating yet and Floyd Rose in 1981 was just starting to show people his system.

@666jony666 I built this guitar in 1981/82. It's an Aria Pro Explorer ZZ series body, neck from Charvel (now part of Fender), Aria stock humbuckers, original Floyd Rose prototype. I soldered the pots and switches myself, ran a ground to the Floyd to get rid of buzz (changed the sound for the better). But, it won't stay in tune, the neck shifts all the time. However, it sounds great so I'm not going to change anything because i don't want to destroy the tone.
