Or when your not able to really crank it up just use a boost in front of a 100 watt head at low volume and accomplish it 1000 times better ...I guess being able to get some pushed at tones at lower volume is cool.

I don’t know…like his tunes and playing, but his tones were never that good imo. Cranked muddy Marshall tone.That first Badlands album had fantastic tone.
100% I think we translate 'great tone' from that album because there is a great riff, killer song and over the top plant ish vocals =killer right?? Listen live it's not great tone, but he is a great player!I don’t know…like his tunes and playing, but his tones were never that good imo. Cranked muddy Marshall tone.
I'm with you, George. I love his playing but never thought his tone was special. However, I do like his raw Marshall tones from Badlands but anyone can get those with a good stock Marshall. I think those tones fit their music.Is Jake’s tone something people really chase?
Sure, I may or may not like certain tones, but if the song /playing /performance is good and interesting that is the main thing for me.100% I think we translate 'great tone' from that album because there is a great riff, killer song and over the top plant ish vocals =killer right??

Yep, I remember reading an interview with him when the first Badlands was coming out. He was saying it was very different from Ozzy going for a 70’s kinda vibe. I would say he achieved that goal pretty well. I only have Voodoo Highway, it is good I think.I'm with you, George. I love his playing but never thought his tone was special.

Yes it did...and the second IMO. But, all it is really is a slightly boosted Marshall. I can get that all day with any one of my Marshalls. Of course, I can't play like Jake...lolThat first Badlands album had fantastic tone.
I think the new JEL20 sounds great... but then I heard this video when it dropped yesterday
I never thought his playing was anything special either. Ozzy should have stuck with Joe Holmes.I'm with you, George. I love his playing but never thought his tone was special.

Supposedly that first album Jake used a JTM 45 and a Dimarzio Very Metal pedalThat first Badlands album had fantastic tone.
I use to say this. After Cameron helped me with my Jet City 20 my mind was changed completely. So much so that I sold off most of my big amps.el84’s—pass every time
