Have have you guys seen this? I think I might be kind of digging these tones...Perhaps more so than the Friedman Butterslax video.
Thoughts?

I like it . I like the nasty tones they get . There’s actually something I love about their tones even though don’t set my tones up like thatLove the guy and def liked the Sultan's Curse riff at the end but that was too much gain for me
Like a muddy fuzz pedal in front of a Marshall. Fits Mastodon though and he's better than me so there is that too
Oh I love Mastodon, just not this standalone tone.I like it . I like the nasty tones they get . There’s actually something I love about their tones even though don’t set my tones up like that

I kind of agree...It's not really a tone I would go for myself necessarily. But there is something really nasty and gnarly about it that I really dig. it's definitely a bit over-gained but not over-compressed. Those cutting, ripping upper-mids sound like they would tear through the mix. I would like to hear it in the context of a song. I also really dig his style and nuances of rhythm playing, so that adds to the appeal.I like it . I like the nasty tones they get .

It sounds good on certain riffs and some not . She I think he would just write to fit the ampI kind of agree...It's not really a tone I would go for myself necessarily.

I mostly love my EMG 81s in the bridge position, but I get what you are saying. I'm always looking for a passive that has almost everything that the actives offer, but with a bit more organic feel and dynamics. Haven't found it yet.Those dudes haven’t used the same tone from one song to the next for the last decade, that’s a huge part of the reason I love ‘em so much. Live you get the stripped down versions and they’ve gotten so much cleaner over the years where you can actually hear what the guitars are doing.
Think I’m going to give his Mojotone pickups a shot in my Edwards LPC, I’m tired of the love/hate with the EMG’s.
I yet to try that.I was always 50/50 on emg’s…until I ordered the 24v mod. Now I love mine. It’s worth a try. Imo
really recommend it. Just made such a huge difference with my greco. I don't think its a guitar specific phenomenon...I yet to try that.

Mojotone really surprised me with their pickups. I had a set of the Tomahawks (Dustie Waring Signature) in two of his CE24's. They sounded absolutely monstrous, articulate, yet still chunky where you want in the palm mutes. Their 44 Magnum pickup is supposedly really great for recording.
Camera audio, but I thought he sounded really good in this clip going into the JJ-100. This is actually the clip that convinced me to buy one and load my guitar with MCP 2nd Degree Black Belts years ago. I'm not really liking that Mojo amp, but it could just be the way they recorded it/dialed it in.
