Damn, Rocco. Sounds great! And your chops are simply amazingly accurate. Consider me very jealous of your skills!
haha thanks man!

Steve's always been one of my favorite guitarists of the 80s, badass tones and playing! Thought about doing my take on his Rebel Yell guitar sound, no tone matching here folks!
Stevens recollects that he played a Kramer guitar(possibly a Pacer model) with a Floyd Rose. Miked with a combination of a Shure 57 and a Neumann 87, he played through “an [unmodified] Marshall, late '60s plexi, non-master volume — just turn the thing up as loud as you can — and a vintage Marshall cabinet with 25-watt Celestions in it. After trying every plexi model in the axe, I found the EVH5153 Blue to be the perfect amp! no od in front, just the amp gain, keep in mind I used two OwnHammer cabs from the modern pack, the OH MAR-CB V30-CH T1 Studio Modern and the OH MAR-CB T75-RI T1 Studio Modern. To be closer to what Steve played on the record I used my Kramer Baretta with a single humbucker in the bridge and a Floyd Rose. BTW, this patch turned out pretty close to the sound of the Friedman Steve Stevens model!
Let me know what you guys think!

Hi, is the delay and reverb on during the rhythm or just the lead? Not sure if this is supposed to be setup on multiple scenes since I haven't actually auditioned it yest but noticed they were on. Thanks!
Might I ask what pickup you use in the Kramer? I recently bought an original 1984 pacer , similar to one I had in the 80's and early 90's.
Great cover, Rocco! I liked it so much that I just had to pick up my guitar and finally learn that song I was surprised to see your amp choice and I wanted to try it with a Marshall amp (Brit Super) to hopefully get closer to the original original guitar stem track that you posted above. I still haven't figured out Steve's delay and reverb settings, so don't be surprised if it's not really that accurate Anyway, here is my version:
He's a great player and seems like a great guy and put many of us on Fractal Street.
Where did you get this Rebel Yell backing track BTW?
