Perfect Soloing tone
 

Whats your favorite soloing tone?

On what instrument?

guitarrr

In that case, my favourites are Brian May (Queen) and Andy Latimer (Camel).

Brian May- my absolute favorite guitarist of all time, he is the reason why i started playing guitar in the first place. His tone is absolutely amazing

I'm with you guys, Brian May had a great tone (when going for my own tone I use his as a rough guide).
My least favorite is Eric Clapton... thin and boring, blah.

i think david gilmour has an amazing tone, josh homme from queens of the stone age in my opinion has a nice tone as well.

Word I never thought about it much but Brian May does have great tone. I personally like Jack Whites quite a bit.

Just a side note - Brian May just recently finished his PhD thesis in astronomy that he started... before he decided to take a short break to start playing for Queen!

yeah, that was almost a year ago I think (not positive)... another side note, the new "Queen + Paul Rogers" album is finished and will be released in the next month or two.

I personally enjoy most guitar tones I hear now a days (except for the overly processed ones/emulated sounds)... many of the older acts had early recording technology working against them as well. When Weezer first broke out I remember appreciating the heavy-crunchy, neater guitar tones in a time where it was mostly all sloppy and dirty. Now they sound pretty generic, nothing special (imo).

I love Allison Roberton's tone on The Donnas most recent album, Bitchin'...She always seems to get a good sound.

And I think you all know by now that almost everything I say is about The Donnas, so don't be like.. "0MGZZ W0W U TALK AB0UT D3M A L0T L0LZZZZZ"
