If it was my tone, yeah, probably some more low end, but as usual LLL nails the original tone - https://youtu.be/F2Fo8p_up6c

Warren definitely brought some class to the sleeze.

I don't think I nailed it... but in the ballpark. I was using a Custom instead of a JB, for example. And shoulda removed the 200ms delay entirely.
I do dig the tone though.

Just gonna take a moment and note LLL spends a lot of time putting his clips together. Indeed, they always kick arse. LLL does not have to share his efforts with us. That is his choice, but I will humbly ask you to not loose sight of that. We could get to enjoy his efforts, or we could go pound sand.

Thanks for the sentiments, but I have much much more work & improvement to do getting this production shit (read: studio polish) down overall on most of the sounds I fiddle with.
But most importantly, it's fun to do.

Although it was tuned down more, and not as close to the actual sound of the real song, I like the way it sounded the first time you made this thread.

But then again, what do I know? I'm just a some virtue-signalling jackass hypocrite f#ckhead. Not to mention the fact that I pretty much suck at guitar, try to pretend to be way better than I really am, do little to no soloing, and am very rudimentary and sloppy when I actually do solo......well, at least according to you.
By the way, thanks for the private message with the invite to your forum!!

You're welcome, but you're mistaken - that was obviously no invite, because I had asked you if this (SDUGF) forum was dying... and pointing out why.
Keep in mind you've been mixed in with Ace & Securb because you yourself play the "backup" role with them; same peas in a pod.
You do have good rhythms and very good productions skills, and I stand by anything and everything I and the others say over there.
Now back on fucking topic.

I just relistened, man I love the low end on this one of LLL's version- especially on the walk back from E,F, G

It's juicier and fatter than my latest (because it's tuned down a half step and very little production).
But it's not close to the original EQ wise, whereas my latest is pretty close. Beau always trimmed off a good amount of fat.
Regardless, Beau's techniques baffle me. What you 'd think is a simple fare of "Marshall w SM57 slight EQing in the mix" is much much more.
He's at the very least using Pultecs, and God knows what else. RATT's record tone is no 2-D thing; it lives a la 3D.
