  • I love all your videos man!

  • @Soldano88 Appreciate the kind words, Soldano!

  • I actually like it better. Yngwies tone is too earpiercing with treble these days.

    

  • @chico280 You speak the truth. I tend to shoot for something around Fire & Ice era.

  • I am missing my Splawn Competition, though the JVM205H is really working for me for all of the different sounds I need. I might buy a Splawn Street Rod head next. Great tone and playing!

  • @thebibleisalltrue Cheers, JD. Yep, the Street Rod looks appealing. I still think you'll be back one day. Hope you and yours are well. :)

  • Sounds fucking killer bro! Nice tone for sure!

  • Sounds pretty damn close dude, nice work, your vibrato is very yngwie-ish too. The only suggestion I would have is maybe to turn the DOD250 up a bit to give it a bit more crunch; the gain sounds a bit thin compared to his

  • I think yngwie cranks the eq, and uses some sort of compressor as well. Actually it's in the range of the brown sound imo! It's just the way he plays

  • wow, I love how clean you play !! that's right man as it shall be :) you've got a great tone ;) I subbe d you looking forward to see more man ;)

  • I dig it. I dig it a lot. Not so much delay and reverb that it drowns the notes. They still sound articulate and defined. I think I like it better than Yngwie's actual tone.

  • Nice, kickass tone and playing!!!

  • What scales are you using? 

  • More like a George Bellas tone
