  • @MOAB-UT

    As usual your tone and playing is spot on. So much so that with eyes closed one could barely discern the difference between you and SRV- I would argue in the majority of sections. Very few people on this planet could pull that off so hats off to you Tyler. Also, love the juxtapose positioning of the old TV and Hi-Fi against the backdrop of you tweaking high tech patches on one of the most powerful fx processors the world has ever seen! Modern tech being used to recreate the genius of the past.
    As others have mentioned, I hope your patches will work on the AFXIII. You really should ask Fractal to give you one and/or hire you as an expert and get your patches on their website for free or "for fee" download. Your spot-on custom patches will definitely help them to sell many more units. +1 for the guy that asked for your tabs. I think we would all like to get them. Your tone and playing of "Little Wing" was incredible. I watched it over 100 times and have most of the intro down.

      @TylerGrund  8 років тому

      +absinha6209 I've only gotten isolated luck getting David's sounds. Keep in mind his tone/sounds vary WIDELY from album to album song to song. My biggest hurdle has a lot to do with his compression. So far the AxeFx compressor pedals don't do that effect quite properly like a good vintage MXR can.

    Just like me- having to shush the kid at the end there! So good to hear this from you- I'm still playing my Super Reverb that you modded for me years ago that you did such an excellent job on- amazing amp, but as things go- I can never play it at home at a decent volume. I'm super happy to see that the AmpFX II can get THAT good and accurate of a Vibroverb/SRV tone. Interesting the way you approached it just like real components and came away with such good tone- it's clear that Cliff and crew are better at this then I thought they would be- everything is interacting with everything else just like they do in the real world of tube amps. Down to the transformers even- so many would just overlook that! This just sold me on the AxeFX being my solution for in-home playing and recording. I knew they could get good overdrive tones after hearing Rick Graham's stuff through one- but now I know it can pretty much do it all. Because of you and that Super Reverb you built me plus some Freidman and Bray modded Marshalls and one amazing Fender Bassman I'm a tube amp snob- but the truth is I can rarely play those amps at home at the levels they need to be at to sound great. I end up plugging into my Peavey 6505 MH at 1 watt to get the tube amp fix I need! Thanks for posting and adding a whole new tone pallet to my home studio!

    • @TylerGrund
      @TylerGrund  9 років тому

      +Jason's Guitar Channel I have in the past, but seems to clutter the sound more then it should. SRV used spring rev sometimes, but I don't think I hear it much in his sound. Guys using his core sound as a livng (sayce, KWS, etc) all use heavy spring reverb, but I don't think I hear much of any spring in any SRV recordings. Now, I think I've heard SOME live recordings with spring coming through.

    PSA: if you hate constantly changing between standard and 1/2 step down tuning, get the Digitech Drop pedal. It does drop tuning in 1/2 step intervals, so it'll do 1/2 down all the way to a whole octave down- v useful if you don't have a bass. It'll also nail that super low Queens of the Stone Age tuning. Great pedal.

    @blakemcginnis2155 7 років тому

    Is there any way to get this tone out of an AX8? I'm guessing not, since you can't run two amp blocks in an AX8. I've had an axe fx before (the first model) and HATE the deep-diving/tweaking stuff. I have a Helix right now, but this is by far the best SRV tone I've heard on youtube and almost worth going back to an Axe FX for....just wish it could be done with the AX8 since it's quite a bit more affordable. The overdriven sounds are pretty closely replicated on the Helix, but I've yet to be able to get a clean/lenny tone like you have, on the helix.

    Hey Tyler! I want to build a Hendrix patch that is as dynamic and responsive as this one. You seemed to have a good grip on how to set this up for Stevie's sound. I know it will involve a plexi, likely with a 4x12 loaded with greebacks, but where would I go to figure out which advanced parameters to change in the amp block to make it sound closer to Jimi's, and where to set the knobs to compensate for Jimi's amp settings?
