Tone Profile

Aggressive and overdriven, with a raw punk rock energy. The tone is characterized by a strong midrange presence and a tight, punchy low end, perfect for driving power chords.

Recording Notes

• The guitar was likely recorded with a close-miked cabinet, capturing the direct and aggressive sound of the amp.
• The Ibanez Tube Screamer is used to boost the signal and add extra saturation to the Marshall amp, creating a thick, distorted tone.
• The choice of a Gibson Les Paul Junior with a single P-90 pickup contributes to the raw, unfiltered sound.

Recreation Tips

• Start with a Gibson Les Paul Junior or similar guitar with a P-90 pickup.
• Use an Ibanez Tube Screamer to drive a Marshall JCM800 amp.
• Set the amp to a high-gain setting, but not overly saturated.
• Place a Shure SM57 close to the speaker cone to capture the amp's raw sound.
• Adjust the Tube Screamer's settings to add the desired amount of boost and sustain.
• Consider double-tracking the guitar parts to create a thicker and wider sound.
