rjay777 Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 Alright guys and gals... if you could pick one guitarist that speaks to you like no other when it comes to pure tone mojo, who's your favorite? This ones tough for me cuz there's been so many great sounding guitarists over the years. Early EVH and Gilmour are definitely on the A list, but I'll pick Robin Trower. Imo he took Hendrix's sound and ran with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MojoRedFoot Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 Hetfield on the black album. Tone was sick...great cleans and killer gain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EvanPC Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Mark Knopfler Lindsey Buckingham Leslie West on Mississippi Queen (one of my favorite riffs too) I can probably come up with a couple others, but those two are top of mind.

surfpup Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Duane Allman http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j6mwOixCObc Uh huh! It's so great to see/hear those guys locking in like that. Must've been something to see them live. Too bad I was only 7 years old. I would have liked to have experienced that! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SG FAN Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Duane Allman http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j6mwOixCObc x2, Dickey's tone on the SG wasn't too bad either:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too bad I was only 7 years old. I would have liked to have experienced that! I would have loved to have been around for that, too. Regrettably, I was a negative number... x2, Dickey's tone on the SG wasn't too bad either:) Yeah, Dickey's also excellent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy R Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Well Gilmour is the Tone god ( Like the others already mentioned as well. Love Trower!) but I'd give Warren Haynes a +1 on tone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldefrothingslosh Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 Tough to pick because there are quite a few, but have to go with Joe Bonamassa - India/Mountain Time on Live From Nowhere in Particular. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tman5293 Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 I'm surprised no one has suggested SRV yet. Best blues tone I've ever heard: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tWLw7nozO_U And we all know dem00n's guitarist tone of choice: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8SbUC-UaAxE Although Slash's tone is actually pretty good in that song.
