Jimi Hendrix - Band of Gypsies

Wes Borland in general (yes really. It was the first heavy tone I heard that piqued my interest and got me on track paying attention to much better tones but it was among the first few I heard before picking up a guitar.)
Kevin Eubanks on the Jay Leno show. My parents used to let me stay up for the opening credit because I liked his tone (and not choice) so much.
Greg Howe - Extraction
Andy Timmons - Resolution
Eric Johnson - Venus Isle
Ty Tabor - Dogman
Allan Holdsworth - Metal Fatigue

Silence is Violence
This was the reason why I bought a pair of Dimarzio Breeds for my RG.
To this day, Breed+Basswood is still my favorite combo for a guitar, ever.

TheWarAgainstTime
"TWAT" for short
I didn't really like this album as a whole, but I've gotta admit that it's got a pretty massive mix (0:21) I'd like to have a similar sound if either of my bands record soon
Same thing here. Massive, awesome mix. Also I love FFAK haha

Where we're going we don't need neck pickups.
In Flames.

Jackson Shill
Ooooh, I completely forgot about that album. Ty's tones on it are absolutely stellar, especially the leads and rhythms.

This is kind of weird but The Dillinger Escape Plan has had a huge influence on my tone, I think. I say it's wierd because I don't really listen to the band what so ever. I have Ire Works and I've listened to it a few times but it's just not me. How abrassive the guitars are sometimes had a huge impact so sometimes I like to go for that kinda thing. Mid heavy for sure.
Pain of Salvation is another band that I really liked their guitar tones. Especially off of the song Black Hills and the album Entropia (when they played heavier music and such, I guess.)

I'd say the closest to my tone is born of Osiris. Very tight and meaty yet smoothed and not gritty or crunchy. Very high gain, without any fizz. Lot of miss with equal bass and treble. Very fluid leads.

Chevelle. Pete's sound on "Wonder Whats Next" thoroughly distracted me from the fact that the songs on that record are actually very bad.
I also always loved Dan Estrin's studio sound (Hoobastank) and As I Lay Dying's super saturated chugga-chugga bidness. Their more recent records have had some straight up AWESOME sounding guitars, and they were mostly recorded with a block-letter 5150 and an old LP Studio. Imagine that.

The tone on their first couple records got on my nerves. It was almost too "tight" and chirpy through the mids.

Randy Rhoads from the Tribute CD. Any amp I play through (except Dual and Triple rectifiers) the first thing I do is dime the Mid range and dial everything else in from there.

Pardon my french
Slayer - Decade of Aggression. The live tone I use for reference for anything else. And since I've seen that same show live I can attest it sounded the same in the arena.
Which also explains why I thought Slayer sounded like garbage recently.
