Title: How Does Slash Get that Amazing Tone on Estranged? Post by: dominator on June 27, 2005, 11:43:36 AM Well, I'm trying to learn to play Estranged on my guitar, but I can't figure out how Slash gets that awesome sound on the lead parts in that song. I mean, it's not like his normal tone in, say, Sweet Child o' Mine.... it sounds like the guitar is screaming, almost.
My amp is a Peavey Classic, and I've got an Epi Les Paul Standard with a Dimarzio Air Norton in the neck and Seymour Duncan JB in bridge (but I'm guessing I don't want to use that one). I know the basics of his sound, boost the mids, and a lot of bass with the tone rolled off a little bit, but I'm just not sure how to get that crazy sound. Any suggestions would be really appreciated. Title: Re: How Does Slash Get that Amazing Tone on Estranged?

So turn the Master Volume of your tube amp up.
