I've played an 80s ODS but it was only at a moderate volume, so I'm sure I didn't get the full experience

But even so, the lead/gainy sound was basically a combination of cranked tweed at not cranked volumes - farty, grainy - with the honk of a mark I boogie

and the clean was a more mid focused version of a blackface or silver face - it honest to god reminded me of a hot rod deluxe 🤷

I'm sure there are impressive ones out there, but I don't really "get it."

I've played a trainwreck express and THAT I "got." Very touch sensitive, and dynamic.

Oh yeah no argument there. Maybe one has to be that weird or eccentric like HAD to make something that special and if so, then we need more guys like that making gear haha

Indeed. As long as they stick to making gear, I don't want to know what they do in their personal lives. To be more specific, I don't want to know more than I already know about some of these amp weirdos, about what they do in their personal lives.

The anti-les paul sentiment in this thread makes me want a les paul.
 
I know the Dime tone thing has been done to death as well. i saw Pantera when they opened for Wrathchild America in Ft.Lauderdale & his tone wasn't terrible, Wrathchilds tone was better. now with that said, i LOVED Dime. Nicest dude i ever met back then.

All i play are Les Pauls. I have 5 & 1 Jackson.

Nice. So the Jackson is for when you don't feel like blowing everyone away so easily with your Pauls.

The les paul hatred others are spewing in here is making me want one.
 
I don't know if it counts but I'm over the whole brick wall limiter mastering method. The loudness wars are at a cease fire because nobody won.

Literally 90% of his solos..and i am probably being generous out of laziness. He probably has one good solo. The rest are heavily masturbatory and do not match the music

I think it fits Van Halen music perfectly. Over the top party music - what's not to like? That, and in the late 70s no one else was really doing that so it was fresh then. Now? Yeah, I get how people either just don't dig the noodling or are completely burned out on it. I have to be very careful about getting burned out on music as I sometimes will play a CD over and over and over again ad nauseum. I mean, I practically went a whole year listening to nothing but Killswitch Engage. Then, back in June, I realized I had Pantera's Greatest Hits CD in my truck for 4 months straight :lol:
