******I just got the new GuitarOne Magazine in the mail today... I was looking through it, I came to a page with "The Top 10 Worst Guitar Tones of All Time", I was going through the list, kind of agreeable, but not really, and then, for NUMBER 6, they have Satriani???? What idiot put that list together!!! They have Satriani as the 6th worst guitar tone of all time?!?! Anyone else see it yet, I subscribe to G1, so I get it before it hits the stands. Can anyone else believe that!!! So many people wish they had the same tone he gets! I guess we all have bad taste in tone for liking Joe Satriani and wanting to get the same tone he has? (just kidding, showing that the editor for the G1 mag. was an idiot to put that list together, mainly to put Satch in there) ---For Joe himself, (if he even reads this) can you believe G1 mag put you as the 6th worst guitar tone of all time!?!?!!?*****
TravisHodges I really couldn't find any good dist. pedals today when I was out. I have been using my DS-1 for distortion, I like it, but I still need a boost for solos. Last week I thought of doubling up, using two DS-1's, keep the settings I have on mine now, buy another, and use it as my enhancer/booster. I hope it works out how I want it to, if not, I will just have to keep searching and trying other stuff. You should try it also, either double up two tubescreamers, or use the DS-1 after the tubescreamer to give you that extra edge you want, it might work out good, I don't own a tubescreamer so I couldn't let you know, but try both of those ideas out. I know Satriani used two DS-1's for a song or two on "Strange Beautiful Music", so the doubling up should work out good, i hope. I was also thinking about getting a Zack Wylde overdrive pedal, and then use it for either my distortion or my enhancer/booster.
I know a lot of people use other pedals to enhance/boost their sound for solos or whatever. Does anybody here use the DS-1 or a diff. dist. pedal and then use something else for a boost? If so, let me know what you use, I need to find something to add in after my DS-1. Or, does anyone know if two DS-1's sound good? Use one for you main distortion sound, and then the 2nd for the boost. I know others probably do what I am talking about, so let me know what you use.

Zinc Master The list is bull!!! Well, the list is ok, but there is no reason Satriani should even be on the list at all!
Everyone go out and get the new GuitarOne magazine to see what I am talking about, there is a picture of Zack Wylde on the cover, it might be in stores in like a week or so, not sure, but go out and get one, you can see for yourselves. The magazine is really good, but they are wrong, Satriani has one of the best tones/sound around at this time. I am going to post up on this site what it said under his picture and his name.

Ok, here's what the magazine says...
Top 10 Worst Guitar Tones of All Time
-A list of 1-10 people. #6 is Joe Satriani. They have this next to his picture and name. "You've got to give Satch a little credit: his alien tone sounds like no other guitarist's, and no other guitarist sounds like him. But then, is sounding like Charlie Brown's teacher on speed something you want as your tonal legacy?"
--That is right from the magazine. I know what they are saying, but he shouldn't be on the list at all. I bet a ton of people will agree with me on this. And then, throughout the magazine, they have ads for books with Satch's music in it, his JS100 guitar, and even another page for him in the magazine. The magazine always has a "Return of the Shred. Terrifying Licks of the 80's." They have Joe Satriani, "degree of difficulty-9.0". They have a Satch lick from Circles or Big Bad Moon, I wasn't sure, they didn't really specify which song it's from.

i have been playing for eight years but just recently my music has beeen really smooth because i have gone from rock to metal and now arpeggio-neoclassical. i have really been influenced by you, eddie van halen, and yngwie malmsteen but for some reason my neoclassical arpeggio and rock/metal seems to be the very opposite of what i want it to sound like. my sound is from eddie, my technique is in between you and yngwie but th hardest part is trying to figure out what i'm missing can you give me some pointers on arpeggio scales? if you can i would be very thankful and mabye i will be playing up there on stage with you some day.

Clarky,
Sure, I'd be more than happy to talk Taxi Turkey when you're ready. You should hear some of the crap music on some commericals, and TV shows over hear...If they don't buy your stuff... I'd be surprised...but with my taste...who knows I like people like Satch, Hendrix, SRV...Debussy...you know crap like that...lol. keep the faith!
Guitarmeister,
GP didn't have JS listed either for top tones...stupid Fckrs...must be some politics tween' Joe & the Biz

Zinc, the rest of the lyrics -
Oh no - I saw my baby on the creepshow
Out on - spillin' my guts on the news
Oh no - I caught my woman

Hit me with a shovel 'cause I can't
belive that I dug you
Any idea who it is now? lol! C'mon, it's eeeeeasy!
Mikey D in da house!!!
We were watching some show on VH1 about the worst metal moments. They had a piece on Kip Winger doing ballet. That in itself isn't really that funny, but the way they presented it was hysterical! Anybody else see it?

GuitarMiester: If you have a new DS-1 (made in Taiwan) it will leave you wanting more. Go to www.robertKeeley.com and check out his DS-1 Seeing Eye Mod pedal. His mod reduces the noise of the ds-1, while making it sound fatter, and it seems to have 40% more output. The mod is only about $50 bucks too. I highly reccommend it!

dothestu:That Timmons/Satch ham was SICK! How did you get that? I checked out the "Heart of the Sun" tune, is that a leftover from the red album?

Michelle - You're slippin'. That's an easy one. Creepshow.
Zinc - State of Euphoria is a great album. Anthrazx was the first Heavy group to make the crossover with a rap artist w/ I'm the Man. Great tune.
