have u tried the jvm satriani head?

Hey Micheal the way u play those solos is incredible... Nice sound too

Thanks for this. Regards from a new subscriber from UK - & big Megadeth fan. Love the idea of getting the insights into all the classic metal gear... Hope you got more of these!

With all due respect- - the dialed in MN's sound doesn't sound quite ' there' to me. I am a bit confused I seem to be the only person at this point to say this. It may be in the ballpark, but still not the same spot. Maybe a bit more tweaking? If anything, MN's lead sound appears more mellow, lacks those tense crisp highs and that harshness in the attack. The rhythm chops, however (the riff before the HW...TPD final solo) sound more flabby and loose. I'm only saying this because I've been looking exactly for Marty's lead Kemper profiles and asked for them on the Kemper forum, and someone actually replied I should ask BigHairyProfiles (no kidding!).

@@haveagoodone5830 Hi! Thanks for chiming in. The rhythm sounds are completely off, for sure. They would have been recorded with the Bogner Giant preamp, which is VERY different sounding. I just threw that in there for the fun of it. But the RealTube was NOT setup for tight rhythm playing for sure! As far as the lead tones, I think Marty probably used more gain than me. I have a habit of using less and less gain (a personal preference), and it came back to bite me in the butt a bit. The other aspect is putting it in the mix. I didn't do mix/mastering stuff to it which would definitely crispness and highs, but on acapella guitar, it can be a bit unpleasant. It's always a balancing act on youtube. The thing to listen for is in the midrange. more or less highs is easy. The midrange is something that can't really be altered. That's where I think they match up. If you have a Kemper, I think you'd find something you like. I profiled it a bunch of different ways, some more aggressive than this, some less. So you can find the one that matches your pick attach and blends with your guitar tone.

That’s a nice way to put it tho

Pretty much 😂

Hahahaha!!!!! That's a great way to describe it to her. Dainty handbag vs. lofty massive beach bag. She'll understand that too. Lol

Daaaaaamn🤘🔥🔥🔥

Same here. Let me tell you how Rust in Peace (the album) became my favorite metal album of all times. I discovered Megadeth in 2001/2002 when I was 16. I am from Brazil and, as always, metal was not exactly popular down here. So, if we wanted to buy a CD from a metal band that was not Iron Maiden or Metallica (bands that were "popular enough" for the labels to decide to print their CDs in Brazil), for example, we had no choice but to buy imported CDs, which would cost me all the money I had for a month. Thus, my friends and I used to first download the songs from a given band through softwares like Napster, Kazaa, Emule and only after we were 100% sure that a certain band was worthy, we would then spend our limited cash to buy that band's CD. Well, back in 2001/2002, when you searched songs in one of those softwares like Kazaa, you would get MP3 files named such as "Metallica - One", or "Iron Maiden - Run To The Hills", following the pattern "Band name - song name". Therefore, when I was "discovering" ("downloading" cough, cough) Megadeth I had a folder filled with individual songs in MP3 format like "Megadeth - Hangar 18", "Megadeth - Holy Wars", "Megadeth - She Wolf", with no information whatsover about the album each song come from. The thing is that, from all the Megadeth songs I had downloaded, after one year I had my personal Top 5: "Megadeth - Holy Wars", "Megadeth - Hangar 18", "Megadeth - Take no Prisioners", "Megadeth - Lucretia", and "Megadeth - Tornado of Souls". I thought these songs were awesome, and somehow had a magical element that other Megadeth songs didn't have. I did not know all these songs were from the same album. To be honest, I only found out that these five songs were from the same album 2 or 3 years after I had establish my top 5 best Megadeth songs. What was my surprise at the end of 2004 when I found out that not only all my favorite Megadeth songs were from the same album, but also there was one extra "major" song I never heard before, which beared the same name of the album: "Rust in Peace". After I found out myfavorite Megadeth songs were from to the same album, Rust in Peace was already one of my favorite albums ever. I recall my expectations were very, very high when I finally got to listen to "Megadeth - Rust in Peace" for the first time. After five minutes listening to that song, I was completely baffled that Megadeth had surprised me again: not only Rust in Peace was a great song, it was a thrash metal master piece, I had no choice but to change my top 5 Megadeth songs to a top 6. So, not only all my favorite Megadeth songs were from the same album, but this album was so damn good that it made me discover another thrash metal jewel "Rust in Peace... polaris". After discovering this last song, "Rust in Peace" became my favorite metal album of all time, and still is. Like a good wine, Rust in Peace is aging very well. If you google now "best metal album of all times", Rust in Peace will appear among the very best, where it belongs.

@@douglasdbs7139 that’s an awesome story and it makes perfect sense. I might have picked the same songs :)

Its damn good Album, I like seasons in the abyss.

It's pretty high up there, I personally prefer Peace sells though. Poland > Friedman

Dawn Patrol is filler for me 😅 But yea, one of the best thrash/metal albums ever. Personally prefer the Peace Sells riffing, but overall I put them on the same level.

@@michaelpachuau3885 at least dawn patrol is super short then. I didn't like it for a long time, but when listening to the whole album it is a nice little break before the finale

I’m not going say any one is “better” than “Rust”.....but 2 other great thrash albums that rounded out my cassette case in my car were “The New Order” by Testament and “Under the Influence” by Overkill. With “Rust” and “Peace Sells”, “Master of Puppets, “Among the Living” and I could cruise for hours!! 🤘🤘

Thanks! Here's links. Link to the lead tones bighairyprofiles.com/item/bhp-tube-pre-ii, link to rhythm tones selz.co/4JLn2$DP7

I bought the pack and it is spot on, all of the other presets are great as well. You really realize what a special player Marty is when you can have pretty much the exact tone yet sound absolutely nothing like him.

@@z1gbro I’m a noob can you connect this thing to a regular tube amp ? Lol I have an EVH 5150 III

It's a tie with Chris Poland

Thanks !!! AWESOME profile pic!!!

Well... Arby's *does* have the meats LOL!

Marty is from another planet. I'm pretty sure...I ran into Megadeth in Rochester back in the mid 90s. All four of em were in a minivan, just the four of em, on 104 out in Greece NY, about 5 mins and 2 turns away from downtown Roc. Dave was driving, Junior riding shottie, and Marty & Nicky were in the back. The funniest part is that I TOTALLY forgot that we were going to see a Megadeth show that night. I literally looked over and saw 'Deth and I said "holy shit, it's fucking Megadeth". I was hanging out the window and got them to throw some horms and yelled at them that I will see them tonight. The best part about Marty is that he is clueless when it comes to gear and all that. He can play like no other, but he can barely even turn his rig on by himself. Ahh Martin, you are in a world that was not ready for you. 😂

Poland is my fav I still love the conjuring and good morning black friday etc etc, but rust in peace is like a magnum opus of sorts.

@@DiminishedDarknut Yeah man. Like I said, if I was told I could only choose ONE Megadeth album for the rest of my life, it would be a tough decision (for me) between Peace sells and Rust in peace.

Hey mate FYI, writing your opinions IN ALL CAPS doesn't give them any extra merit

@@metalocalypse2011 OH, IM SO SORRY. DIDN'T REALIZE YOU WERE ON KZfaq GRAMMER AND "CAPS" PATROL.

@@metalocalypse2011 we're talking about music we adore and praise, not some logical argument meant to convince others but ok.

This was absolutely the hardest stuff to play! VERY outside of my wheelhouse! hahah

Michael Nielsen nailed it mate

I think I got mine used at a Music Go Round in the Twin Cities...maybe it was previously yours lol. I didn't mind it, and did gig with it for awhile. You're right about the noise though. One buzzy bitch.

I had the same problem. I used to have a 2×12 tube works combo amp. It didn't sound bad but Damn it was noisy as Hell. LOL.

Had it too... Sold it off too Same issues. You can hear it's noisy here also. But, tasty. I wasn't using it correctly I suppose. Hell, too me a while to get my CAE3+se preamp to sound the way I wanted. And Megadeth used them as well. That was a keeper tho...

Who's in MINNESOTA?

THanks!!!

Thanks Johan! Enjoy!

​@@BigHairyGuitars Dude seriously your tones are amazing. I've had my Kemper for a month now and 90% of the time my goto sound was Vito on your ADA pack. Now Marty joins him :)
