Re: For the Andy Timmons challenged people

Yep he is one killer player, man I cannot belive that he is not more known to most players??

Re: For the Andy Timmons challenged people

Totally. I heared he wanted to put a new album out in 2005 but till this day nothing happened. =/

And his page could be updated more regularly.

Edit: His page is up-to-date. Album should come this spring.

Re: For the Andy Timmons challenged people

You know what I love about this guy? He ain't "over the top". He isn't Satch. He isn't Vai.
He isn't Cooley, et al. He's just a straight forward git-picker. Just some "nice" hot licks.

I need some CD's.

Thanks for sharing this.

Re: For the Andy Timmons challenged people

is he using all singles on this tune? There's twang, but they sustain nicely, I like that tone.

Re: For the Andy Timmons challenged people

isn't Andy Timmons using a Laney GH100L? That's what I heard.

According to his website, along with some other amps, it's the VH100R (the one we have ) I'll tell you what, neither my son or I sound like he does through it though :eek13: :laugh2: :laugh2:

Nah, you don't have his fingers :laugh2: It's just because his tone reminded me about Paul Gilbert/Racer X tone, and he's using the Laney GH100L (or GH50L), but as far as I know the drive channel on the GH and VH series is the same.

Re: For the Andy Timmons challenged people

Sounds like his sig model Ibanez to me (H-S-S setup). I've got a video of him playing a clinic, he goes through 5 or 6 songs, this one is the first and it sounds exactly like this. Really awesome player, one of my favorite instrumental rockers.

I highly recommend his album "Ear X-tacy", it might take some digging but you can find it, and it's killer.

EDIT: Give me a minute, and I'll upload the video and post a link.

Re: For the Andy Timmons challenged people

Timmons Rules...PERIOD. he's a killer player and a real class act. I highly reccomend his "That was Then annd This is Now" cd as well as his authorized live Bootleg DVD

Re: For the Andy Timmons challenged people

Alright, here's a link to the video. Also, I was mistaken, the song Rid posted is actually the second one he plays here.

Re: For the Andy Timmons challenged people

Thanks Rid, for introducing his music to me. I've never heard his music, I only know him by name cause he has a signature Ibanez.

That's a great vid, FretFire. Thanks for uploading it!

Re: For the Andy Timmons challenged people

Here's a couple of videos I just ran across, one is Andy jamming with Satch, the other with Paul Gilbert.
