Stevie Ray Vaughan Discussion

Picked this up on the weekend and it has an interesting article about SRV, by Alan Paul, who I think used to write for Guitar World. It covers the period from Montreux to the release of the first albu ...

They sound like great finds. The used amp market here is nowhere near as diverse as the States so my chances of finding something like that are pretty slim. Do you think the ugliness factor is why Gib ...

what do you guys think about Mato from Indigenous? I think he's a good player with good tone. any others?
I like the playing and also his voice, which for others may be an acquired taste, but feel th ...

Henry Garza from Los Lonely Boys? Dude gets lots of great Strat tones. He really loves that wah pedal...
Apparently he uses a Marshall DSL (probably the 100), based on what I've seen elsewhere. Don ...

Then, it's to my '67 or '68 Gibson Falcon, which is all tube, about 18-20 watts. I use channel two, which is no reverb or tremolo. I got that amp for $150, and have re-tubed it and had a cap job d ...

with that said, im curious to who your other big influences are. just wondering.

I'm not sure if anyone answered this or not.

Hmm,

I like Trower, and really try to mix some Betts into my styl ...

i know Jess Davey is out on the road with Indigenous (apparently him and the sister dating) serving as their guitar tech. He sits in at the end of each show.

That's kind of sad to hear. I guess i ...

I'm thinking Philip Sayce (only more of a trebly SRV tone)

who is Philip Sayce? i've never heard of him. Where can I find his stuff?

There's clips at his fan site http://philip.bstrongspeak ...

Stevie for sure had his moments when he'd play some cool jazz stuff, like "Stang's Swang" but even that was mostly pentatonic scales. i guess thats where the modes start comin in but that in itself is ...

staying in context to this particular discussion board, who of the new young guitarists come closest to reaching Stevie's tone?

I'm goin to have to say Jess Davey from the Hoax on the Humdinger alb ...

i like how u posted your rig. lets see some more of those. here's mine...

No snickering at the back!

'57 RI Strat, '93 LP Standard or '80's Schecter tele copy (for slide) into V-847 Wah, Voodo ...

yes the fuzz face reissues are really horrible. awhile back i went to Austin Vintage Guitars and plugged one into a JCM 800 marshall head thinking "cool this should sound like Jimi"...boy was i wrong. ...

The Dunlop fuzz faces are terrible, aren't they? Has anybody tried the ZenDrive? I'm quite interested in getting one of those with all the great things I'm hearing about it. V-13 tell us a bit more ab ...

i never once bad mouthed stevie. did i ever once say he sucks? did i ever once say his playing is boring? did i ever once say his tone was horrible? no because i'd be crazy if i did. did i give him pr ...

Anybody use a fuzz face? I have one that's a copy of the Fulltone '69 pedal that a friend made for me. Because of the power set up it doesn't work well with my other pedals and I don't use it anymore. ...
