Maple trees line the roads of Hillsborough, New Hampshire. Shaped into the curved body of a guitar, the old growth can produce a warm tone that’s absent from the ‘80s metal canon.

It does, however, sink deep into the tracks of Guns N’ Roses‘ groundbreaking 1987 debut Appetite for Destruction, where Slash’s ’59 Gibson Les Paul replica bakes a thick layer over Izzy Stradlin’s sticky syncopation. The result is a throwback sound, like early Aerosmith being reborn in the age of modish Van Halen.

For Slash, his tone was the result of American engineering, coupled with his singular desire to blend the blues with heavy metal – rather than shattering the speedometer on his Les Paul. On most of Appetite’s 12 tracks, Slash’s tone feels unlike anything from the period, which defied the sameness of the era it was forged in

bro this was very well written and an enjoyable read, really brought the reader back to the scum and filth of what the 80's represented and what GNR lived through

Marshall amps are British. Like him. Just sayin. Great piece though. 

 

Also England isn't an island. It's one of THREE countries ON an island. 

I always find it funny how most people here in Spain cannot tell England, Great Britain and United Kingdom apart, it's all the same for them. :lol:

It's a complex conversation to say the least... :lol:

Its not though. Only to the daft and the ignorant. 

 

There are 2 islands north of Europe called Ireland and Britain. There are 3 countries in Britain called Scotland, England and Wales and 2 countries in Ireland called Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. 

The 3 countries in Britain and Northern Ireland make up the United Kingdom. 

 

Simple.
