ok, got the link to work.
as far as the tone- very kick a@@ (could use just a pube hair more hi end)
It has a lot of the midrange quality that I love!
I think the reason for the discontinue of the DC-10 is due to the fact that its kinda in between, a combination of a vintage and modern amp....anyone with a mark 4 (if they know how to dial in good) can prolly get this similar vintage tone PLUS the more modern Mark sound....so it sounds like Mesa wanted to streamline the lineup on this one, imho.
as far as your playing, you do have some raw talent that just needs to be shaped a bit. Now take this with a grain of salt. On the first recording, if i may say so you tone is great but the actual playing is not very good at all. Timing is waaaay of, no sense of a foundation or groove whatsoever and VERY spastic and scrappy (not like the good spastic/scrappy feel of Slipknots first album, just not good)...
SOOO, what ya need to do is try practicing with a metronome more often and FORCE yourself to be consistent with tempos and melodies. This will prolly make you less tense when you play which in turn, will give your playing a way more solid, cohesive AND understandable sound.
thanks so much for posting cuz i've been dying to hear these clips of this discontinued amp! Keep up the good work!@
ps, have you heard LOG's new single, "Redneck"...its awesome, has sorta a Pantera vibe to it and Randy's vox phrasing/melodies are sooooo much better AND powerful, imho
