Who has *the* tone?

I don't know if he's an endorser but I know he uses SD's beacause he was mentioned recently on the Seymour Duncan home page, but Steve Stevens' electric tone on the Billy Idol Storytellers dvd is to die for. Check out 'Eyes Without a Face'. I got this dvd not because I'm a Billy Idol fan but because they had it playing at Circuit City one day and it sounded great. Steve Stevens steals the show.

+1 Billy Idol is one of those singers I "tolerate", so that I can listen to Steve Stevens. ;)

Not a duncan endorser at the moment.
but... me.
No joke. I love my tone I have right now, and would not trade it for ANYONE's tone.

:drool:

Marty Friedman, George Lynch and Prashant Aswani, I believe all 3 of them have JBs in the bridge :)

Wow, Thank you so very much!! I kinda like my tone too.:)
 
Re: Who has *the* tone?

Daron Malakian and Alexi Laiho don't use Seymour Duncans... but I'm sure you already knew that. I also like their tone.

But the Seymour Duncan user I would like to have the tone of is: Bruce Kulick of Grand Funk Railroad, formerly of KISS and Union.

JB / '59 has got it goin' on. Rock On :headbang:

Reviving dead thread, sorry.

But Daron Malakian does indeed use Seymour Duncan SH6s in most of his iceman, paired with a Gibson PUP in the neck of what model I am unsure of.
 
Re: Who has *the* tone?

I've never seen a list of Duncan endorsers, but that'd be cool. Daron Malakian is definitely my go-to guy for tone, his tone is exactly what I want out of guitars lol.

Re: Who has *the* tone?

Thanks for the list.

There is practically nobody on that list whose tone I would want to emulate. Dicky Betts is the closest by far, and even his tone is not really something I'd strive for.

Yngwie has a pretty damn amazing tone ! Will Adler, Dave Mustaine, Syn Gates are cool too !
