Welcome to episode #1 of Iconic Tone - a new series on this channel where I'll be showing you how to dial in tones with your own gear at home that are reminiscent of some of the most iconic guitar sounds ever recorded.
In this pilot episode we're starting out with my original guitar hero - Slash. Specifically we'll be taking a look at his tone from the best debut rock album of all time, that being Guns N' Roses' Appetite for Destruction.

I keep watching this video over and over because the sounds are gorgeous, that Les Paul is gorgeous, and your Slash-style playing is so beautiful to hear too. Even the precision and professionalism with which you explain every single step are beautiful too.

His tone sounds really flat I find, also I know his playing has always been very blues based but nowadays he leans more towards blues than hard rock in his solos. It just sounds very generic.

This is such a terrific video for Appetite Slash tones, thanks Ross! And it's funny: this has made me realise just how much keeping the bass and mids in my lead tone is so ingrained that I honestly don't think I'd ever have figured out this particular tone without your help today! So again, thank you! Hmmm...future tones? Dialling in some Hendrix fuzz tones would be great, with octave fuzz tones a bonus. Speaking of fuzz, Matt Bellamy's thick but still musical fuzz would be fantastic to get my head around too. Btw for reference, I'm using a HX Stomp and HXFX combined.

Excellent tone, video, and playing, especially the intro to My Michelle🤯 Please share as much as you can about the entire signal chain, starting with guitar pick (size, shape, and material :) For instance, a hardwood pick will brighten and emphasize attack without affecting much else. And the less popular fender 346 pick’s shape in white celluloid has a harmonic-rich midrange sound, but is more difficult to use than the usual 351

Awesome! Great recreation! Sounds spot on! Did it take a lot of work to dial it in? Did you try to listen to isolate tracks? Backing the gain off really did open up the dynamics of the pickups. Similar to how some people raise them up but if you lower them it has a similar effect. Will definitely be following this series! I would love to see you recreate megadeth rust in peace tone.

Great tone, great playing !! I know you told it, but I fell like there's too much low end even now 😅. Cause if you listen the "isolated tracks", Slash is way more acid than this. We tend to ignore it because we listen his tone within bass and drums in the mix. That's why it seems beefier and fat. Into a mix there's a lot to hi-pass here. But you rock, man ! 🍻
