Re: Vivian Campbell's Dio tone from 1984 - which pickups
I remember a pretty early interview with Yngwie where he couldn't understand people saying he played too fast and he mentioned that heard Vivian Campbell play something so fast he had a hard time understanding how he did it.
It's not often that yngwie has said that a guitarist was faster than he was.
One thing I've noticed about his playing is that it's as unique as other famous guitarists and that he prefers tones outside of what people consider cool and that he is pretty good at giving another guitarists room for "his thing" rather than stamping all over it.
His live performances with Def Leppard has him doing some very "unVivian" stuff but I realized he's letting Phil Collen shine as much as he does.
