This is my best effort yet to come up with a Hold Your Fire era Rush tone but I could use some help to make it better. I haven't yet managed to get the sparkle on the high notes, although I'm sure it must be possible. I dialled it in using my Washburn Parallaxe fitted with a Bare Knuckles VHII bridge pickup. (I tried it with a Strat but instead of becoming more sparkly it just sound ice-picky.) I found the secret to getting a more authentic tone for this is running a direct signal in parallel with the cabinet; without this it lacks the required punch and attack, and it helps to add the aforementioned sparkly high end.
