      He was diagnosed after the Black Ice tour, but he had been showing signs of dementia long before that, probably at the time of Stiff Upper Lip or even before, so much so that right at that time he changed a lot, both physically and in the face and in way of playing, he had never played with a 100% clean guitar sound before, and since Ballbreaker he hasn't stopped using it anymore. Besides that on the Stiff Upper Lip tour he already had a "look" a little lost, typical of the disease, as if he was confused

  • @matsandersson8857
    @matsandersson8857 6 років тому +1

    I think it sounds like Angus used a 2203 or 2204 amp on the Powerage album. It sounds very distorted and they used that live at that time. Same with the If You Want Blood You’ve Got It album.

    • @dries7547
      @dries7547 6 років тому

      Not really. In fact, we went back and forth, trying everything - A JTM50 (our SD50) was an instant match. Couldn't get there with a 2203. They have that preamp fizz, not that raw crunch you hear on the album. If you want blood live album was actually not so distorted. Listen closely to Ang, he's very clean. There are indeed 2203's to be seen on stage, but we have proof that during that period, there was a JTM50 blasting backstage on a single cabinet, used for recording and FOH micing.

    • @SoloDallas
      @SoloDallas  6 років тому

      mats, we used to think that way, too. Now not anymore. On Powerage, *some* songs were probably done with Angus (and Angus only) using a 2203 - probably Marshall asked for it. But other than that, their old amplifiers were used and much likely, a new entry for AC/DC (that would never leave them for the rest of their career) was introduced: a JTM50 black flag. In our opinion, the JTM50 is the best guitar amplifier ever made - so much that we make the closest replicas of it today. When it comes to rock and roll, nothing - I say *nothing* beats a JTM50 properly configured. The live album "If You Want Blood, You'Ve Got It" is, in truth, an accomplished studio production of live shows happened in 1978 in Scotland. But much of those live performances was then re-played in the studio by the band, again using what they loved to use the most. So some songs are indeed played with at least one Marshall 2203 but many others, for a fact, were not.

    • @matsandersson8857
      @matsandersson8857 6 років тому +1

      SoloDallas Ok. But if you watch the film footage from Glasgow it matches the album very much. It’s almost impossible to play exactly the same twice and you can quite easily see that on film. I mailed Tony Platt some years ago about the Highway To Hell Album and he said Angus used both Master Volume and none Master Volume Marshalls on that.

    • @Heatfarmer

    How important are the heavy gauge strings to get Malcolms sound. He used 52s or thicker right?

    • @SoloDallas
      @SoloDallas  6 років тому +6

      John, for us, it was very important. Even Malcolm said it himself. Number one, he needed it to keep the band in tune (it's so easy to go out of tune with these guitars, especially during live takes). Additionally and maybe even more importantly, Malcolm was clean-dirty (this is how they called this type of sound). So, with clean-ish guitars, the bigger gauge you can go, the bigger the sound of the guitar - which was much needed in the case of Mal. *HE* was supposed to lead the rhythm, drive the band - he was the maestro, the director. You know this. Hence, he needed to have a big, clean sound but punchy at the same time. So he needed a guitar like this one with big strings. He went .52 and wound G, as far as we know.

  • @jacobkitzy6188
    @jacobkitzy6188 6 років тому

    Tremendous video once again. Quick question: Would adding a 5000pF switchable bright cap to my marshall dsl40c help give it more crunch and hollowness like angus back in the old days? Per your suggestion I know upgraded to the g12-65 and love it but can't have greenbacks due to the wattage and single speaker capacity. I personally love angus' tone on the solos- problem child, school days, little lover, stick around all very much so but still love the aspects of the highway to hell and back in black albums. I saw in some of your old articles you mentioned that specific bright cap being put in super leads and possibly modding other amps with it just wondering if I could do the same to get more of that aggressive hollow punch he has in problem child. Thanks and cheers Fil!

    • @dries7547
      @dries7547 6 років тому +2

      Jacob Kitzy Here no bright cap was used for both amps. Actually I don't like it, almost never use one.

    • @jacobkitzy6188
      @jacobkitzy6188 6 років тому

      Thanks, do you have any tips to get that problem child type tone like micing technique or any possible amp mods?. In some of Fil's older videos where he demoed a different boost labeled "my secret" he sounded like he had more of that older type tone where the guitar sounded more hollow and made much more clicking noise. I have the storm and the sd-71 by the way as well.

    • @dries7547
      @dries7547 6 років тому +1

      Jacob Kitzy that is all in micing technique and equalization techniques. Especially micing technique. There's only one way to learn this and that's just to go and try it - even a few 100's of an inch can give you already a very different tone. Experiment!
      Of course the basic tone of the amp in the room must be already sounding close.

    • @jacobkitzy6188
      @jacobkitzy6188 6 років тому

      Thanks for your help Dries, great rhythm playing and I know you got the lead chops and vibrato too from some of Fil's other showcase videos. I am in the experiment phase I guess, I got a very close sound its just trying to express that through recording is obviously a difficulty. Do you recommend working with a condenser mic single, or sm57 single, or a combination. What is you/and or Fil's preference obviously each song/era has its own tips but if you were to make a tutorial video using the schaffer what pair/single would you use and in what general viscinity to start with.

    • @dries7547
      @dries7547 6 років тому +1

      Jacob Kitzy a 57 can sound nice but doesn't capture it very natural. If you don't have experience in putting 2 mics, you first have to learn that. It's not just throwing both in front of the cab and sum 'm up. You have to understand how mics will combine and experiment if that gains the result you had in mind.
      Overall a large diapraghm condensor mic would be a good start... We like the AT4047 as a good entry mic - Plus a good mic preamp which is important. And all the post processing stuff as well of course.
