This is my squier strat with holydiver bridge into an mi audio crunchbox into a light distortion on a marshall dsl100. The left speaker is through a celestion g12h-30 and the right speaker is a classic lead 80.
Cheers

That sounds pretty damn nice!
Love this tune :D
-
Brilliant tone, i just love it, it's soooo meaty, thick yet totally defined... love it!
And great tune obviously!
Cheers, machek

Awesome tone. Love it.

That sounds great, you got me wanting a superstrat (proper superstrat that is, not ibanez etc) with a HD in again :P The Crunch Box is such a good pedal, if I ever get an amp that only does clean again, I'll get another Crunch Box. Sounds better than the DSL distortion channel. When I set my laney for clean and turned on the crunch box it sounded almost identical to the laney with its own gain turned up :)

sounds so good 8)
thanks for sharing

Indeed, the crunchbox does sound alot better than the amp distortion. So glad I got one as I was contemplating selling the amp before finding one.
Here's a pic of the strat I used btw:

That's an excellent clip. The tone really captures the Sabbath sound very, very well and the playing is top notch.
More please ... Snowblind maybe? :D
-
Thanks Machinehead, I'll try and record some more next week when I've got time
-
Wow, I mean WOW!!
This must be the best clip I heard in a very very long time. Now I want a Warpig :(
-
wow cheers hunter, I dont think its quite as good as some of your clips, I would love to be able to get the tones you get with your budda and bogner.

haha, I'd rather have a vintage modern to a dsl100 tbh. When I tried a vintage modern I prefered it to my dsl100 anyway.

Christ that was fantastic, and a fellow leedsy-person too! and here i thought leeds was either superskinny-indie or stupidsplurging-death metal.
I'd never taken the time to check out the HD's before but these seem perfect... did you get around to trying them out in your SG?
I wonder if this could do the Alter Bridge type sound...
Would you say most of the tone is coming from the crunch box? I'll be after one of those too, sounds kick ass!
Love 'Song 5' on your myspace btw, is that Nailbomb or HD?
-
just... wow!
-

sure
but the painkiller is the closest to the tremonti pickup
-
damn, TomW
i tried to ff the song, but i couldn't miss anything so i had go back and listen to everything again :oops:
-
Thanks alot guys :D

Yea I tried it in my sg, but it sounded no where near as good. Sounded alot bassier and darker. I asked Tim which pickup would be best at getting a similar tone to the holydiver but for my sg, and he suggested a riff raff, so should be getting one of them soon.
Song 5 is the holydiver but I used an mxr eq pedal infront of the amp instead of the crunchbox. If you've got a half decent tube amp you should be able to get a good sound from the crunchbox.

Class!!!!!!!! :D :D :D
-
amazing tone! Almost as good, if not just as good, as the original. It was a little troublesome to get through without ozzy's vocals thought. :P
-
Very nice! Is your Strat an older Squier? I have a Keeley DS-1 and wondered if the Crunchbox would be different enough to buy one as well!

It's just one of the cheap squiers, it was my first guitar and cost about £100 i think, but I've replaced the neck, bridge and bridge pickup. I've never tried a keeley DS-1 but I'd imagine its pretty similar to the crunchbox.
-
That's an amazing tone. Really amazing. I want that tone... Holy Diver?
Hmmm...
Tim?
-
Fab tone and playing! Marvelously fat sound for a strat, but very well defined too. That'll cut through the mix ....
I'm definitely thinking HD bridge for when I eventually upgrade my dodgy old Charvel Charvette. :)
