Guns N Roses Guitar Settings

[BigRed79]

For any musicians out there that like covering GNR:

What kinda amp settings do you guys use? Guitar settings? Just interested in perfecting the GNR sounds.

If it helps, I have a Fender Telecaster, and NO I AM NOT LOOKING TO GET THE SLASH SOUND. I'm looking for more of an Izzy type sound; hitting up the rhythm section. I understand that if I wanted to be Slash, I'd get a Les Paul. I'm just looking for some tips.

Tune your guitar half step down and play around with either an effect pedal or a line 6 amp.

Uh...yeah, the half-step down goes without saying. And I sincerely doubt that a Line 6 could capture the GNR sound...they used mostly Marshall JCM's,

I'm not looking for a "get this and play around with it". I'm simply inquiring what people are ALREADY using for settings and such. I'm ALREADY playing around with what i have. I want something with a little more detail.

Izzy always used much less saturation than slash (slash deceivingly uses less distortion than people think as well) Izzy basically has a dirty sound. He also played in between the beats a lot (syncopation). As far as eq goes, bump up your mids, and dip your low and high. If your controls go from 1-10, hi-6, mid-7, low-6.

He also commonly turned his guitar volume knob down about halfway enabling him to bump it up for more saturation under Slash's solos.

Pretty decent evaluation.

Thanks man. Really appreciated.
