What happened to the Fender Yngwie Malmsteen Overdrive?

That sure is a mighty tiny Plexi...lol

You know what is mighty and tiny? The little Spark Go. That thing rips. I was doing Pink Floyd on it for an afternoon at home and loved it.

I use a Spark Mini for lessons. That thing rocks.

I got out my Helix and Tonex and got a few presets and Marshall JYM profiles.

It wasn't that different from what I got in that video with the tubes.

I am using a 60s Vintera Strat. "We revoiced the pickups to be more 60s-accurate. They’re full of the bell-like, crystalline tone that made Fender instruments famous."

Is that way off the DiMarzio HS-3 or JYM Fury strat? Or should work?

ad copy is nice. the best set of 1963 strat pups into a modeling rig is going to sound one way. might sound amazing! a more modern set of pups might sound even more amazing into that same rig. all rigs are different, a helix isnt the same as a '66 super reverb, and thats just fine

What does the YJM Overdrive do that any other one doesn't? What's its 'thing'?

It really does capture Yngwie's type of overdrive.
