So i have been on a quest to get the juicy sound i am hearing on u tubes of Stryper (using orange amp / Jet City cab, and treb boost in front of amp), Tony Iommi (with amp in studio), and now with U tube of 'Silent Underground' preset, that actually uses an AFX in the video.
The tone i'm after can be heard in the video linked below, when the guitar player holds the first chord (C power chord)
I just can't find the magic formula - even though i can see that the player is using a 'USA' preset called 'James Rhythm'. i have tried the USA lead preset, but there just sin't the upper midrange presence that's in this video, or any of the others? any ideas, guys?
Is it the speaker in the room/to camera/to u tube that i'm hearing?
Is it the tweaking of the 'USA' amp in the preset in the video? My attempts just sound a bit flat. I have gotten this sound before however, both with my MarkIII and with the AFX a few FWs ago.
Does maybe Rain know how to get this tone?
Is this preset (or one like it for AFXII MII) still available?
Here's video with the AFX patch i want to achieve - the chord i want to sound like is at 14 seconds:
