    My MKIII Is Back

    accurate way to describe John Sykes tone off Whitesnake 87?

    What is an accurate way to describe John Sykes tone on this White Snake Album? Like some people like to cut mids, crunchy, heavy gain, mild gain, lots of mids/treble, extra bass, no bass, ect...? I'm not really good with being able to tell what type of sound guitarists have. So im curious...

    JJ 6L6GC First Impressions

    Mark III settings Help.... Whitesnake '87 tone

    what kind of sound is it when you have to MK III's slaved together? He probably used a little more lead drive though, since he plays with a hella lot of gain.

    I've played the Non modded version of an MK III while i think it sounds good, i feel the one with the mod sounds better if your woman was getting unsafely fat and unhealthy you would want her to probably take a few steps for her own good and health. Unless you are like most americans who...

    Which is better for getting good tone at moderate volumes?

    I believe both will probably be around the same. Im not an expert on boogies, but i used to have a Single Recto and now i use a MK III C+. I think both sound good at that specific volume you are talking about. I really think either the MK III or IV will sound good at the volumes you speak of...
