Hot Rodding a DSL40C???

They are the tone I have had in my head my whole life.

Gball, I know you know this song well. The tone I have had in head my whole life is this one from the opening and then the bombastic eruption that can be heard at 3:31+
Then when he gets serious at 6:16+ This is probably my favorite of Alex's leads. Of course I am pretty sure he is on Marshalls there. Don't even get me started on the Bass tone Geddy gets here. He just has that juicy, punchy tasty melodic bass thing going on here.

Sorry Robert, I digressed. HAHA

All is well...

LOL Whenever I immerse in my very first Rush Album, ALL is WELL indeed. Robert.

Same way I feel everytime I hear Mississippi Queen again...that tone re-ignites something inside me.

Yup, Mr Herndon's Signature SOUND.

Bro Robert, I wish you could be in my head and hearing what my ears hear through these headphones right now. I know you can't handle Geddy Lee's voice, but man does he get a bass tone like no other especially on the 2112 Album.

Gball will also attest to the incredible live album All the World's a Stage. Those 3 bad asses sure could flat out play.

Geddy's voice is alright....not my favorite, but I've listened to a bit of late...

This tone from 1983 got me interested in using a chorus...isolated guitar track:

 

[chilipeppermaniac]

My 3rd amp has chorus, It is a little Fender Princeton Chorus

Here is the Def Lepp sound I began with.

There you go! Right back to the Randall! Good man.

 

[chilipeppermaniac]

LOL Bastard, More AOR's for us!!!

BTW, No one mentioned Carvins?
I bet if Robert found a nice Carvin, one might do the trick too.

Not exactly Hi Gain, but man this guy has some TONE coming out of these Carvins

I read an interview with the engineers on these records (pyromania and high & dry) who both confirmed Willis's use of Hamer Standards and Randalls...

The biggest pitfall is not being able to try all of these great suggestions!
