Curtis P Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 How does Judas Priest get that tone at the start of the solo of the song painkiller?? I just cant seem to get it to sound right (yea, i am attempting it) like, the tone is WAY off for the solo, but for the main part of the song, its pretty good....

smitty Posted August 29, 2005 Report Share Posted August 29, 2005 from what i can remember, the start of the solo sounds like the neck pickup, so try that. Apart from that, use buzzy practise amp distortion, and year old strings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeB Posted August 30, 2005 Report Share Posted August 30, 2005 yeah, its a poor solo with terrible tone - neck pup, gain at 10 treble at 10, mid at 8 bass at 3, 4" speaker. though you could play it with a proper tone, try get a petrucci or romeo tone - both rock, infact romeo he pwns petrucci. EDIT not nocking you for attempting the solo btw. but dan and i have heard a SUPREME version of that solo, lmao - glen and the other one had nothing to do with it, lmao they wish they could play! who played it dan?

All the solos on their cover totally eat Priest. They made the first one neoclassical, lmao. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
