Best Distorted Tone You've Ever Heard???

[FortePenance]

Dino Cazare's tone on Edgecrusher.

Cynic's lead tone.

i love the tone i created on my vetta, deity lead and deity crunch set to my desire. it sounds so warm and crunchy for me

 

[Thrashmanzac]

killswitch engage- for you
nevermore- godmoney
the absence- into the pit.

i am searching for these tones, COMBINED

 

[charles22880]

Brian May's tone on a kind of magic
Trey Azazthogoth's tone on covenant
Knut m Valle's on La infernal masquerade
guitar tone on 1349's liberation this tone may suck to a majority to people on this forum but it fits the insanity of the music so well and i love it

slipknot´s The Heretic Anthem has a really insane satanic distortion in the intro, but it´s the kind of distortion where you can´t hear what´s going on when all the other things set in

if you´ve got it handy, listen to the right-side guitar track when it kicks in... it´s so EVIL sounding

it becomes a muddy mess when everything is playing though

also, i really love the guitar sound on the new meshuggah album, on the song Bleed, and on Obzen, where they´re djenty-chugging away...

KoRn´s tone on Untouchables is sick too, Mesa Boogie Road King FTW

Dino´s tone on Linchpin, on FF´s Digimortal... just works so brilliantly in that song

Bulb and Tesseract´s tones are sweet as hell too, and make me wanna order the damn Engl cab for my power-amp/Pod X3L setup even more, but i gotta wait for that damn money that i should´ve had...

James Hetfield's Mark IIC+ tone during Puppets/Justice is in my opinion, the ultimate distorted metal tone EVER.

and devin townsend's 5150s.


that's the main reason why I bought mine.

 

[Loomer]

Matt Pike from High On Fire..

Hands down.

 

[totaluntruth]

ok best tone is.....................

#1-Leeway---desperate measures cd
#2-unbroken---unbroken cd
#3-At The Gates---slaughter of the soul cd

 

[Mastodon]

I really like the tone on Glass Casket's albums too.

even though one of the guys from Between the Buried and Me is the guitarist the tone is defintely different, and I love it.

Clean: Anything by Dino Cazares

Distorted Rhythm:

(thanks Stitch!)

Lead: John Petrucci on Falling Into Infinity

 

[Randy]

Distorted Rhythm:
[All Shall Perish]

Indeed. As chaotic as their material gets, you can still distinguish their riffs better than a lotta bands in their genre.


EDIT: However, I think the tone on "The Price of Existence" is better.

I personally love Opeth's Ghost Reveries tone.

Speaking of Opeth, I really loved the distorted tone on Blackwater Park. Combined with the great production, the guitars sound massive. The tone on Ghost Reveries, on the other hand, seemed rather average to me.

 

[Randy]

George Lynch DOES rule.

As far as 80's tone goes, the guy pretty much perfected it.

 

[canuck brian]

I totally forgot about this though. The guitar tone on this album is pretty much exactly what I would want.

Overkill - Horrorscope

 

[drawnQ]

i've got weird picks on this one:

the acacia strain - the dead walk
aborted - goremageddon
the haunted - made me do it

and i really like the thrashy sound of god forbid - constitution...

 

[All_¥our_Bass]

For me it's a tie between Nevermore's Enemies(The original nu-metal-ish one), and Re-Nothing.

Oooooo can't forget Adam Jones!

HOW IN HELL COULD I HAVE FORGOTTEN THE MIGHTY ADAM!!

Speaking of Opeth, I really loved the distorted tone on Blackwater Park. Combined with the great production, the guitars sound massive. The tone on Ghost Reveries, on the other hand, seemed rather average to me.

Yeah Blackwater Park is amazing!

Heh, funnily enough that was a track from the price of existence, guess the maker of the video just fucked it up.

I'm really digging Scamp's tone at the moment, if you haven't heard them, check them out, especially if you're a fan of meshuggah, threat signal etc...

As I watched Top Gun again the other day ( oh Cold War, why have you gone?) I was surprised to like Steve Steven's tone so much on the " anthem" part.

 

[Spoongirl]

I like Arch Enemy's "Stigmata" guitar tone =)
