TeeJay410 Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 His tone sounds a little different than with Myles. Seems to have upped the gain a ton. I think someone else noted he went back to the jubilee marshals. Anyone else notice? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ralphelmo Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 It's all about the jubilee. Tone is different, can hear even more treble than before. Kinda UYI style, I prefer AFD100 though. Anyway, it was fucking unreal to hear that epic sustain during Estranged. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pugachev Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 (edited) Much prefer the jubilees, however, he's doing something with his setup versus the UYI days when he was running the 2555 rig. It's pretty thin sounding, much more emphasis on the treble than the mids he use to go for. Compare Godfather from LV last night to Tokyo 92 for a good comparison. It hurt the Estranged performance for me, I always loved that rolled back tone he got in the 90s on that song. Hope he goes back sometime during the tour.

TeeJay410 Posted April 10, 2016 Author Share Posted April 10, 2016 I thought he nailed his tone with Myles. I was slightly disappointed it wasn't the same. I had been imagining the reunion with the practically perfected AFD tone plus Axl. He still sounds great but if they were going the jubilee route I was hoping it would go more UYI era, a little fatter tone. But hey, at least you can hear the rhythm guitarist now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or on Guns songs at all for that matter.. As cool as the reunion is, VR and The Conspirators are closer to the classic Guns sound than GnR2016...

pugachev Posted April 14, 2016 Share Posted April 14, 2016 This video highlights the tone difference today compared to his UYI tone, I miss that old tone, so orgasmic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His tone has improved a lot, with Myles it was too flat but it's still thinner than his UYI tone. That one was marvelous. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klay Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 From what I've seen he's using the old Jubilee's again and a JCM 800. The main difference for the thiner and more trebly tone he has now compared to the UIY / Snakepit I / Blues Ball tours is that now he's using to much of the Shure SM57 - that's where all that treble comes from. He needs to blend it with something fatter or more low mids foccoused. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scooby845 Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 The RRHOF was exactly Appetite like... 2016 is more like UYI... I prefer UYI for some reasons... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nosaj Thing Posted June 1, 2016 Share Posted June 1, 2016 It gets closer to the UYI recording tone. His UYI live tone was his greatest. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pugachev Posted July 11, 2016 Share Posted July 11, 2016 It is has definitely improved. He's switched over to the jubilees again, but still missing some of that magic from the UYI rig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Bond Posted July 12, 2016 Share Posted July 12, 2016 Currently sounds like a hybrid of his UYI live tone and Appetite amp. The warmth of his UYI days with the balls of his Appetite days. I love it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
