Your singer sounds like he had too much alcohol that day. Your cleans sound good, solos sound good too, but you kind of messed up dialing the rhythm sound & between us your playing often doesn't really fit the music. Looks like you need another band :lol: :LOL:

Anyway, I think you guys sound great and great playing man. Cheers man!

Andy, your tones rock, plain and simple. What's bright to a Diezel guy is the norm to a JMP/JCM guy. Then there's the Diezel/Boogie comparison, and the Diezel/VHT/Bogner, blah, blah, blah.

The Diezels have a voicing all their own - and it SLAYS. I'd describe it was a modern-ish tone in the low mids, but tight enough to crush balls at 50m. They also have a treble spark very reminiscent of the modded Marshalls, without being brittle. There's enough sag to satisfy the tube purist and and tight enough to play SLIPKNOT/Pantera covers without worrying (for all of the SS-types) about cutting through the mix.

When coupled with your Andersons, it's like a stripper in a G-sting - not only do they go together - there's nothing more natural! Fundamentally speaking, as you know, the TAG's are on the "bright" side. Tom's wood selection (only the best) and his Hi-Fi-style pickups really allow his guitars to resonate freely, which allows the given wood character to really cut. When coupled with an amp like the VH4, you really have to be careful with the presence and EQ controls. But when married up to the Herbert, with its darker voicing, the TAG's sound wonderful!

Andy, your rhythm tones are KILLER.

Dude that's YOUR sound. Change nothing.

On the subject of your playing style vs the band style, I've got your DFU studio material, and you should go by the saying, "DON'T FUCK with stuff that ain't broke". :rock: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Thanks brotha! im glad you dig the sound, i too am extremely happy with the tones im getting and i was second guessing my ears there for a minute when others thought the tones were lacking a bit. But i wish alot of you guys could hear the combination in person, it really is quite nice :thumbsup: Toms guitars and Peters amps are def a sweet combo!

only nbarts didn't like your tone buddy. I made a comment about the style. :)


by the way....just bough a few songs on itunes! :thumbsup:
 
Hey, I'm running 2-3 amps at a time right now, so I'm a little spoilt. :D

You can't really satisfy me with a single Herbert at the moment.

welcome man....I went with Alone and Hold on...but honestly...I'm about to order the rest of the cd....very good stuff.

You're the main songwriter?
 
yeah, so if you think the style sucks its all my fault :lol: :LOL: in all seriousness i get the songs bout 80 percent there then take em to the rest of the band starting with drummer, lyrics are last cause lets be honest they are just wasted time between solos anyways! :D just kidding i love good lyrics, they just end up being last. thanks for the support i will pass along your good comments to the fellas! when you hear all the tunes i would love to know which one you like best, that goes for any other forum members who have heard all the tunes...

I just watched it last night and i could tell that it sounds great live. Camcorders never really capture true tone or frequencies anyway.
I thought your playing was awesome personally.
You piss me off ..haha..:doh:
I can appreciate good articulation and technique too!
 
Thanks :rock: i can appreciate kind words from badass guitar players like yourself!!

the shred guitar style is not stuff that I would listen to, but it cannot be denied that there is some superb guitar work going on in those clips. i look forward to seeing more of your band in action, good stuff dude.
 
Your sound is just great. And I think your playing fits exactly to the music. It adds that little extra which makes it really special. I bought the CD in the first week, I guess, and it's still runs at least every second day. Hard to judge what I dig the most.... Maybe Rain and Chasing Shadows.

Good stuff Andy. I can't comment on your settings as the audio is not very clear.
 
Great playing! I can tell someone likes Vai &...dare I say...Malmsteen?

Haha. Nothing wrong w/ that...

Also Andy, How would you rate your Anderson to a Suhr?

lol thanks bro, actually i never listened to alot of malmsteen. i dig vai, but i listen to more guthrie govan and shawn lane out of the shredders. I listened to more van halen than anything else though. as far as guitars i have spent extensive time with the suhrs and andersons, i may get shot for this being an anderson artist BUT the guitars are damn near identical. granted ones choices of options will make a difference but its one of those things you need to play yourself. i just find them scary close to each other.
 
dont listen to all the nay sayers

you have unique sound and style.

it is always refreshing to hear something different.

develope your own style and sound.

i think it sounds great, and is not the boring same old stuff.

do not conform into the radio crap. there is already enough of that.
 
thats a great song - even if its not my usual style, this song kinda catched me, very good stuff! :thumbsup:

and your playing is, as always, outstanding. deep respect.
