Thanks guys ! i took a couple takes and i am really picky with how it comes out so i just figured f--- it and i"m just going to shred away! hahahaa ! Just a dod308 and metro amp volume 10 no bridging .If you listen close you can hear i need just a touch more overdrive but i am really happy with the way it sounds . I can dial it in a little better but no doubt the best sound has to be cranked as much as possible! I have the ibanez ts9 in conjustion but it wasn"t on during that . It seems like i always need just the right amount of overdrive to susstain notes . The dod deffinatley kills !

interesting i could hear the pushed front end with a pedal but did of course hear that needed just alil more gain/compression for that yngwie tone. but i coudl hear yngwies voice for sure.
sure would like to see a chassis shot. which speakers and cab were used?

sounds good.

thanks man - some say the 75's are yngwie - they woudl be the last speaker i woudl choose - some say the 65's dont really care for them myself. some say the 30's - i agree more personality, getting closer but again for me i dont care for them-

i would want to hear that amp through some 25w blackbacks.

show some porn!

George built it for me ! I told him i wanted a replica of a 1971 , Because i am soo much of a malmstten freak! lol i"ve had multiple 1987x and xl amplifiers and this one sounds 10 times better, for me i am 100 percent satisfied. I dont know anything about amplifiers other than biasing so i would never dare to try to build one nor do i know a lot about transformers and such., George was fantastic on doing this for me and most of all his promise before christmas!

Are you guys sure it isn't sounding heavy enough simply because there's no other rhythm tracks behind it? The clarity sounds pretty damn Yngwie to me, although I confess I haven't listened in almost twenty years.

I don't know if I'll ever submit a soundclip around you guys again, you all make me sound like a first year at best.

what r u trying to say? i think it sounds good - im sure yngwie would love it.

I'm saying, you guys seem to think it needs more overdrive to be "heavy" enough, I think it's right on if you put the band behind it. The utterly clear attack is right there, adding more drive is going to muddy that up at some point.

i hear ya. so many factors - again i think it sounds great but it does sound like its missing alil gain but i would have to play it to know.

everyone is different when i say what im saying its more for me than a general statement about the amp.

I'd almost question the pickups more....I hear some Strat "quack" to it that maybe the DiMarzio HS series wouldn't have, being a stacked humbucker? (I've never played a DiMarzio Strat stack so maybe they do sound that way, I don't know!!!)
