 Re: Sounds you just generally like. (Part 2)
I think a lot of that tone is how the amp is played. You gotta whack the fuck out of the strings.

 Re: Sounds you just generally like. (Part 2)
Hmm, maybe. Then again, I am a really heavy handed player so ...  I love Marshall tones but have not been successfull with them myself. Like how we were talking about the Strat bridge single. I like the tone itself, just not when I am using it  . Devin: I Make Things Sound Bad. Also,  needs to be  . I keep messing that up.

 Re: Sounds you just generally like. (Part 2)
I too am heavy handed. I hit hard to make up for my lack of technique.

I hit hard because I treat my guitar like my women.

I hit my strings hard because it sounds good to me. I break a .52 about twice a month.

I pick like a Neanderthal. Also- re: Marshalls- crank the mids and bass, treble and presence to taste. Turn WAY UP. Done.

 Re: Sounds you just generally like. (Part 2)
This is the sound of me doubting that:  . It could be that you just make things sound bad as you'd said.

 Re: Sounds you just generally like. (Part 2)
I should rather say I make good things sound bad.
I do OK with cheap shit.

 Re: Sounds you just generally like. (Part 2)
This is probably to your advantage, because Expensive Things Are Expensive.

 Re: Sounds you just generally like. (Part 2)

 Re: Sounds you just generally like. (Part 2)
New things I like the sounds of...
The exhaust on my new motorcycle at 11k rpm. That great sound when you open a beer. (only really works with cans)

 Re: Sounds you just generally like. (Part 2)
I also have a different perspective on Expensive than most. The ~$800 I would have to spend on my Jazzmaster is almost unjustifiably Expensive to me.

 Re: Sounds you just generally like. (Part 2)
Crisp can openings sound awesome. I generally love the sound of things that are "crisp" though, such as the aforementioned quality car door etc.
I also love the sound of a loud mountain or road bike freewheel. And the sound of tyres buzzing along a dusty trail.

 Re: Sounds you just generally like. (Part 2)
The sound of a truck with moderately loud exhaust going way to fast on a dirt road is also awesome.

 Re: Sounds you just generally like. (Part 2)
On that note, driving sidways way too fast on a gravel road sounds awesome. The engine/exhaust noise wailing away at or near the rev limiter, the tornado roar of rocks and dirt/sand being flung against the bottom of the car, all that shit is so good.
