Can it be??!! A pro who actually acknowledged that the gear is the main tools we use to achieve the TONE we want to hear???? THANK GOD. Someone who finally states the truth 🤣. I don't confuse tone with technique. If tone were all in the hands, gear companies would all be out of business. Word.
George Lynch inspires me to want to play better guitar but at the same time completely quit guitar because I won't ever measure up. That's my idol. If I could play like anyone the world over, George every time.
By listening to George I learned a lot about style and tone over the years. Been a fan since 1983 when I heard Breaking The Chains. Awesome player, a true original.
The Randall RM series with the removeable pre-amp sections was one of the greatest things to happen to the guitar amp! I've been a fan of George ever since the Tooth and Nail. What a awesome album that is, and it still kicks ass today!!!
I never tried that one but I had an RG75 solid state combo with a Celestion back in the 80s and got a tone close to Tooth and Nail. I loved that amp. Great clarity, crunch and a good clean tone as well. I wish I still had it.
Saw Lynch mob live in a dive of a bar. Got to stand two feet from him the whole night. He did have a phase 90 on his board and some other stuff I can't remember, but he wasn't using the Morley wha, which I thought was weird. Had three different amps on stage including the lynchbox and a soldano,and used neither of those.
Джорж, винтажные аналоговые педали пока еще в цене! Я сам делаю их для своих друзей. Слава богу еще остались у нас редкие германиевые транзисторы и диоды времен СССР. Это действительно потрясающий звук. Удачи тебе в твочестве!
You're right George,it all starts with the guitar to the pick-ups, to the amp and than effects to find your tones!! It's took me about 10 years to get the tones i've been looking for and I'm still working on finding and creating new ones as well 🤘
74dart man I think it’s almost always snake oil salesman voodoowooshiwoowoo bullshit that is so prevalent in the guitar community. Many of these hardcore vintage fanboys could probably not tell the difference between analog and digital in a blind test but will still swear by the idea that older is better and that digital will never be as good.
Mario Xavier Morales Betancourt ya I wonder sometimes. I know though myself, I worked in loud factories and played loud music my whole life and killed my hearing.
Lots of talk of gear here and George is "my" primary influence to play guitar. He used to use ADA equipment I saved 700.00 to get an ADA effects processor and it improved my sound at least 10 times over. I can only imagine what it would have done had i been running tubes at the time?!?! It was the best processor I ever used even to this day and if George says it?!?!? It's gold!
I see George you have that orange see-thru quilt maple esp...I do too..😃 Had it custom made at 48th street custom esp in Manhattan.Mine has a black reversed kamakazi headstock..its the sweetest guitar I've ever had.Also a GL screamin demon pickup n single strat style neck pickup..Great video for pedal selection!
So insightful! I could listen to him all day (talking or playing or both). Thanks Mr. Lynch! I hope my '80's Zoom Choir can get me at least some of the FX tones on early Dokken stuff :)
Tell you what..I have a custom made ESP exactly like that orange quilt there but ordered mine with black reversed kamakazi headstock. So hockey stick that points up lol...its mean looking and has GL screamin Demon bridge picup n single coil strat style neck pickup.But I run it thru a POD line 6 into a yamaha twin 10" sounds amazing when u pick right effect you like or on the go thru my randall single12" solid state that stands up against my friends marshall lil stack believe it or not.But GL is an awsome guy,generous with his time to his fans,so down to earth.I met him once at Westbury music fair long island New York as I live in East Hampton Long Isl. I was like a deer in headlights in my photograph lol..I was star struck.I'm 49 and loved him since 1987 so heard most everything he,s recorded and he says to me..Do you play Guitar? I'm like Duhhhh yeah I have a guitar lol.I said I have that orange guitar in your instructional vhs video -he said he didn't have it anymore but gonna get another..this must be it.But I was so humbled and tried not to take too long as there were others behind me waiting for him too.Awesome experience.Will forever be my all time favorite no matter how awesome these guys are getting on youtube and theres sooo many that mention george.The best original sound and tone easily goes to George lynch..love him as a player and person and gentle demeanor was disarming..Thanx GL
I run a Digitech PR-3 floor processor through a Peavey Special 130. I’ve used the same setup for years now, and get the sounds I really look for, but I like to see what a pro like George Lynch uses as he’s in my top favorite guitarist, and I try to use a few of his licks when playing.
Listen to George back in the day and listen now....all those amps, pedals, fx....does he sound THAT different? Not really. If he has a distortion sound he likes and a short delay he’s gonna sound like George. If you want to sound like him, you need to learn (and use) some exotic scales, refine your vibrato, and practice. I’ve had a Mesa Triple Rec for years and it does precisely what I need. To freshen things up, I swap out overdrives and tube screamers when I get bored. Obviously, Lynch does the same thing with his overdrives! The basic metal rhythm tone of the Mesa combined with my ever evolving pedalboard of toys has served me well in all my original and tribute bands and in a variety of styles. Everything George mentions is a facet of his tone, but in reality, 85% of it is in his hands and head.
...or you just pick up a ZOOM G2G George Lynch Mr Scary Multi Effect Pedal that contains all his tones already in it and ready to go, like he explained right at the beginning. 0:56 "instead of having $300,000 worth of equipment, it's kinda all in the box" 1:42 More info on the Zoom G2G George Lynch Signature Multi-Effects Pedal th-cam.com/video/wtQgcLRe0VM/w-d-xo.html Of course, Mr. Negative, if you insist on doing it the hard way, you would find that all of the pedals, guitars, and amps are easy to find and totally available, and other than the amps, none will run much more than a $100 or so. Even the ESP guitars start at only around $130. Budget your money, and buy one a year if you have to...

No, you can actually buy all that stuff for a reasonable price. Some of his pedals are still available at reasonable prices: Michael Angelo Overdrive ($150) Morley George Lynch Dragon 2 Wah ($162) As of the vintage pedals, you can easily find low priced clones of some of those pedals at Geargas Store and Reverb: Vintage Fulltone Deja-Vibe: Geargas Effects The Big Ern Vibe Univibe Pedal ($130), DLS Versa Vibe ($220, enhanced clone of Deja-Vibe but it's kinda overkill) Vintage MXR Phase 90: BYOC Classic Phaser($90, built of NOS parts used on original Phase 90), BYOC Phase Royal ($100, highly enhanced clone of Phase 90 with additional 6-stage phaser mode, built with same NOS parts) Vintage Ibanez TS808: BYOC 855 Drive ($85, built with NOS parts with true bypass), Wampler Clarksdale V2 Delta ($200, not only it does everything that a vintage TS808 can do but also has more options) DOD OD Preamp 250: BYOC Lil Gray OD ($80, kinda cramped due to its size but sounds the same) As for his amps his best tones are from the Soldano SLO 100, you can get quite near to it with a Jet City Amplification 100 HDM ($650) with SLO OD channel mod ($60), Pedal friendly loop mod ($30) and Noise Reduction mod ($60) running through a Mojotone 4x12" loaded with Greenbacks ($1130). As for his guitar any good quality guitar with Seymour Duncan Distortion pickup should do the job. Jackson Pro Series Soloist SL2 comes loaded with them straight out of the box for $900 So a total of $2842 for amps and pedals if you buy the DLS Versa Vibe, Wampler Clarksdale, etc. And a total of $2637 for amps and pedals if you stick purely to the BYOC clones from Geargas Store. And $900 for guitar. Sounds doable if you purchase one stuff at a time. But as far as talent is considered, it's priceless, no money can buy it.
Why would you need tons of effects and pedals if you already invested on say a Gibson Les Paul Custom embedded with quality high output pickups and a 100W Marshall tube amp?
Well you kinda answered party of your question, for effects. I'm not one for using a lot of over drive etc, since I like my amp tone, but something to boost leads, delay/ reverb, flange and phaser , and some chorus for clean stuff can just add another dimension to you fundamental tone no matter how great it is. Now if you prefer none of that and just want basic great sounding tone, that's cool too.
The only problem is that Zoom doesn't service their products. I have a Zoom G9 ut that I can't get to change presets. Had it about 90 days before it started acting up. It was an awesome board. Had it hooked up through a Crate Power Block and 2 cabinets. Knocked speakers off the wall with it! But now...
i refuse to buy any "signature" pedal that doesn't say EVH on it - even the stuff that does say EVH on it are not multi function pedals - they're meat and potatoes stuff (Flanger, Phaser, Wah). Less is more with tone. If your amp, guitar and cabinet don't give you 90% of what you want, you're on the wrong track. P.S. Only George sounds like George.
let me see hmmm mr scary with all those pedals and stuff get a great amp great sounding guitar a chord a pick a strap a noise gate a tuner etc and blow the roof off the joint kiss who needs pedals i dont i play daily i got that early 70s ace frehley sound crystall clear ripping distortion i love it
If you think George is going to give you advice on how to get his sound, keep in mind that while paying in person he turns his back at times so people can't steal his licks....lol....for real tho
If you went into a music store that carried every pedal that exists... would you use your ears to demo them to see what you like or would you use someone else's ears (like George Lynch)? Are you your own guitar hero or do you deny your greatness and worship at the altar of other men who are just regular guys like we are who love to play? Do you want to leave that gear store with stuff you like the sound of or stuff that some other player likes the sound of? "I can make any rig talk." - Neal Schon George is a great player and I love his stuff, but if that amber colored ESP sitting there is George's and it has an EMG bridge pickup, then everything he says about "bad tone being the enemy" is BS. Hopefully it doesn't have an EMG pickup (barf). :) You don't need to buy anything. Unless you want to raise somebody's stock prices.
Randall RG100 and Plexis modded and stock were the mainstay of his 80s amp tones... the SLO100 mixed with the Marshall was the Lynch mob period everything else is whitewash MTS/Lynchbox/etc. If you want the classic 80s Lynch tone get an RG100 off eBay or use a modeler for a Plexi and Soldano sound or get the real amps if you have the $$. A Korg delay and Tube Screamer is all you need. George's sound is not as elusive as the much better holy grail EVH brown sound.
I HAD a original Phase 90, along with the distortion+, a Blue Box and a (Red) compression pedal? Yes, Dyna-comp. Anyway, all original and all were Stolen. 😠.
very funny today hear him talking about his multi effect pedal. ....hehe capture this n that. these boxes did not sound good at all, no analog dry through nothing. Same will happen in 5+ years with the upcoming tech laughing about todays stuff
I really don't like Georges playing or tone these days - sounds discordant, guitar-shop playing/not easy on the ear.....he should re-listen to UL&K and remind himself of what he is truly capable of....as for his shitty zoom pedal, i say shame on George for selling us crap....i took one apart and costed it out to around $12 of internal components.....
Yeah, there's probably a lot of artists who don't sound as good now like they did when they had other gear. I think Steve Morse had a great tone when he was with Dixie Dregs & playing the jazz fusion stuff, but the high gain Engl gear that he uses now in Deep Purple just isn't a nice as his older gear.
Infomercial. He's probably getting paid by each company he's talking about. I do not like Lynch's sound today. It's heavily processed to cover up his sloppy playing.
That Mr. Scary pedal uses those worthless cab files. Sorry, they sound like crap. And MXR 90 are not a holy grail of anything...what's wrong with Lynch...you can get a used old one for 50 bucks on ebay.
Ummmm, the next uhhh.....pedal , i want to show you is ummmmmm , this is ummmmmm very expensive, and ummmm I uhh love this pedal. And ummm, yea! Ummmmm this really helps for um shreddiness. And ummm...whoever paid for this needs to ummmm get a uh new spokesperson....uhhh just sayin
There’s nothing special about old pedals. In fact, the caps are usually worn out, and the switches and knobs are rusted. There’s $10 worth of parts in an MXR Phase 90.
Can it be??!! A pro who actually acknowledged that the gear is the main tools we use to achieve the TONE we want to hear???? THANK GOD. Someone who finally states the truth 🤣. I don't confuse tone with technique. If tone were all in the hands, gear companies would all be out of business. Word.
Clarity and vibrato come from the hands. I ran an all EVH setup at a music store and guess what? Sounded just like Eddie.
LOVE George's tone and it's all his own .
George Lynch inspires me to want to play better guitar but at the same time completely quit guitar because I won't ever measure up. That's my idol. If I could play like anyone the world over, George every time.
Back in the late 80s i had a whole set of DOD pedals. Wish i still had them..
By listening to George I learned a lot about style and tone over the years. Been a fan since 1983 when I heard Breaking The Chains. Awesome player, a true original.
There isn't a chance in hell he uses that zoom pedal
LoL, when i saw the zoom logo i prayed it was not the 505, because i trashed that thing they called "pedal" away!
Half the gear George endorses, he doesn't use.
HAH very true and very funny this thread. Same thoughts i had
Lol
It seems that he used it some times ago...

Goerge Lynch is a sound wizzard, he owns one of the best guitar tones in rock music, that's for sure

ESP or similar with Duncan Distortion, Boss GE7, Ibanez TS808 into a nice, old Marshall halv stack - that's my ultimate Lynch tone
I'm always amazed with all the technology of today, that some of the most desirable pedals are the vintage ones. Same with amplifiers!

Mario Xavier Morales Betancourt ya I wonder sometimes. I know though myself, I worked in loud factories and played loud music my whole life and killed my hearing.
I think we hear with our ears sometimes, and vintage gear are like time machines that bring us back to an era of nostalgia
I recently sold an old DOD Grunge pedal on eBay. I paid about $90 twenty+ years ago and sold it for $95.
Lots of talk of gear here and George is "my" primary influence to play guitar.

wow what a great video. so many secrets are revealed here of other players and his own stuff. thanks.
George is SOOOO right about getting your tone right. Great post, instant subscribe, thank you.
He is very well spoken too
This message brought to you by Zoom
So insightful! I could listen to him all day (talking or playing or both). Thanks Mr. Lynch! I hope my '80's Zoom Choir can get me at least some of the FX tones on early Dokken stuff :)
Rockmans were used the entire Under Lock and Key album, for reference.
King of dragontown Yea and he used a seymourduncan convertible for Tooth and Nail
I'd love to hear George play through a Yamaha THR10X with a line out into a big stage PA.
That wah pedal seems cool. He def has that cocked wah tone on his leads.
FC from NJ, im always your fans since you were with Dokken.
Graaande Noslen! George Lynch é demais. Abração, brother.
George lynch is the fucking man,best guitar player ever in my book.
Tell you what..I have a custom made ESP exactly like that orange quilt there but ordered mine with black reversed kamakazi headstock.

Pedal essentials: guitar into Boss tuner: TU 2 or 3
Volume pedal/wah
Overdrive: I like TS9 tube screamer.
Everything else (pedal wise) is flavor.
Digital delay, and chorus pedal.
Funny that he doesn't use his signature amps in any live vids I've seen......they're just stage props.
Yep. Always an old Marshall hidden behind them, live.
Funny he talks about rear mounted speakers sounding best. I have watched him say the complete opposite that front mounted sounded best.
Listen to George back in the day and listen now....all those amps, pedals, fx....does he sound THAT different? Not really. If he has a distortion sound he likes and a short delay he’s gonna sound like George. If you want to sound like him, you need to learn (and use) some exotic scales, refine your vibrato, and practice.

This must be a fairly old video as the Dragon 2 wah has been out for years now
Lynch using watt NMV Marshall head and a PARK NMV (Marshall amp)in 2018. Dont know wattage.
Iove how he drops his zoom on the floor.Maybe sales pitch showing it's tough.I'm gonna check it out.
DON TWAN 47 it's because it is total shit and he doesn't use it lol.
When I was playing all I had was a Big Muff, a Screaming Bird treble booster, and a noise gate( forgot manufacturer)
So to achieve his sound get a bunch of pedals you can't find, buy some guitars you can't afford and a couple 1/2 stacks nobody wants. Got it.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA ! ! Spoken like a true poet ! ! Bravo ! ! !

No, you can actually buy all that stuff for a reasonable price. Some of his pedals are still available at reasonable prices:
Michael Angelo Overdrive ($150)
Morley George Lynch Dragon 2 Wah ($162)
As of the vintage pedals, you can easily find low priced clones of some of those pedals at Geargas Store and Reverb:
Vintage Fulltone Deja-Vibe: Geargas Effects The Big Ern Vibe Univibe Pedal ($130), DLS Versa Vibe ($220, enhanced clone of Deja-Vibe but it's kinda overkill)
Vintage MXR Phase 90: BYOC Classic Phaser($90, built of NOS parts used on original Phase 90), BYOC Phase Royal ($100, highly enhanced clone of Phase 90 with additional 6-stage phaser mode, built with same NOS parts)
Vintage Ibanez TS808: BYOC 855 Drive ($85, built with NOS parts with true bypass), Wampler Clarksdale V2 Delta ($200, not only it does everything that a vintage TS808 can do but also has more options)
DOD OD Preamp 250: BYOC Lil Gray OD ($80, kinda cramped due to its size but sounds the same)
As for his amps his best tones are from the Soldano SLO 100, you can get quite near to it with a Jet City Amplification 100 HDM ($650) with SLO OD channel mod ($60), Pedal friendly loop mod ($30) and Noise Reduction mod ($60) running through a Mojotone 4x12" loaded with Greenbacks ($1130).
As for his guitar any good quality guitar with Seymour Duncan Distortion pickup should do the job. Jackson Pro Series Soloist SL2 comes loaded with them straight out of the box for $900
So a total of $2842 for amps and pedals if you buy the DLS Versa Vibe, Wampler Clarksdale, etc. And a total of $2637 for amps and pedals if you stick purely to the BYOC clones from Geargas Store. And $900 for guitar. Sounds doable if you purchase one stuff at a time.
But as far as talent is considered, it's priceless, no money can buy it.
Harrison Ford anyone?
Eryck Crypton 4:54 this is a solo piece.
what id give for that back drop you got in there!!!
Why would you need tons of effects and pedals if you already invested on say a Gibson Les Paul Custom embedded with quality high output pickups and a 100W Marshall tube amp?
Oh, I don't know, ask any of the 10's of thousands of owners of LP's and Marshalls who do... they can probably explain it to you...
So true, that pretty much sums it up
I prefer a Jackson Rhoads with a Marshall, but LPs and Marshalls is bitching too.
Well you kinda answered party of your question, for effects. I'm not one for using a lot of over drive etc, since I like my amp tone, but something to boost leads, delay/ reverb, flange and phaser , and some chorus for clean stuff can just add another dimension to you fundamental tone no matter how great it is.
Now if you prefer none of that and just want basic great sounding tone, that's cool too.
The only problem is that Zoom doesn't service their products. I have a Zoom G9 ut that I can't get to change presets. Had it about 90 days before it started acting up. It was an awesome board.

Tom Holt BOSS GT8 or the Line6 POD XT LIVE..and EVH..beautiful combination..
let me see hmmm mr scary with all those pedals and stuff get a great amp great sounding guitar a chord a pick a strap a noise gate a tuner etc and blow the roof off the joint kiss who needs pedals i dont i play daily i got that early 70s ace frehley sound crystall clear ripping distortion i love it
George has pants like Jin from Tekken
have you ever tryed the ECHOREC ?????
I had a ts 808 tube screamer
where is the volume
I think Dave friedman has worked with George the most on amp mods. Pretty safe bet that the BE100 deluxe was designed on much input from lynch.
I see that double eagle bro.
If you think George is going to give you advice on how to get his sound, keep in mind that while paying in person he turns his back at times so people can't steal his licks....lol....for real tho
I hear he is quite skilled
And i thought his tone was massive delay pedal, distortion pedal, and another delay pedal guess i was wrong.
George's fingers sold separately lol
If you went into a music store that carried every pedal that exists... would you use your ears to demo them to see what you like or would you use someone else's ears (like George Lynch)?
Are you your own guitar hero or do you deny your greatness and worship at the altar of other men who are just regular guys like we are who love to play? Do you want to leave that gear store with stuff you like the sound of or stuff that some other player likes the sound of?
"I can make any rig talk." - Neal Schon
George is a great player and I love his stuff, but if that amber colored ESP sitting there is George's and it has an EMG bridge pickup, then everything he says about "bad tone being the enemy" is BS. Hopefully it doesn't have an EMG pickup (barf). :)
You don't need to buy anything. Unless you want to raise somebody's stock prices.
I think it’s been longer than 23 years that he’s been playing ESP guitars. Pretty sure He’s been playing them since the late 80s?
I think he left Randall. he's not feature don their page anymore
SoCalChewbacca Not sure but hes not playing them live anymore either hes went back to Marshall
wonder if he'll do a signature marshall amp
I highly doubt it.
Randall RG100 and Plexis modded and stock were the mainstay of his 80s amp tones... the SLO100 mixed with the Marshall was the Lynch mob period everything else is whitewash MTS/Lynchbox/etc. If you want the classic 80s Lynch tone get an RG100 off eBay or use a modeler for a Plexi and Soldano sound or get the real amps if you have the $$. A Korg delay and Tube Screamer is all you need. George's sound is not as elusive as the much better holy grail EVH brown sound.
John J. Sanchez Wrong, RG100 was used for the Tooth and Nail album. Under Lock and Key was a modded plexi. BFTA was a super lead.
I own one. They are junk! Ive tried several nice amps with no luck. Just horrible.
this is where things are down to personal preference though
Nice ZOOM pitch. What a dullard. Great player. Dullard.
Title is misleading, THERE ARE NO WICKED RIFFS HERE JUST TALKING!
I HAD a original Phase 90, along with the distortion+, a Blue Box and a (Red) compression pedal? Yes, Dyna-comp.
Anyway, all original and all were Stolen. 😠.
zoom = poop
Eddie van halen..the king of kings and Lord of Lords..the greatest of all time
He probably could model all that now in a Kemper
i thoughr he used ds 1
In the 80s, early 90s.
Is it just me? or is it really weird to see Mr. Scary with a shirt on?!? LOL \m/, ,\m/
very funny today hear him talking about his multi effect pedal. ....hehe capture this n that. these boxes did not sound good at all, no analog dry through nothing. Same will happen in 5+ years with the upcoming tech laughing about todays stuff
Funny how he plugs that pedal like he uses it. Lol. Not remotely a Lynch tone. 😂
According to his tech (and others who have seen him play), he does th-cam.com/video/wtQgcLRe0VM/w-d-xo.html
He’s tone dependent, but no one sounds or plays like him
He uses the Zoom? LOL
I really don't like Georges playing or tone these days - sounds discordant, guitar-shop playing/not easy on the ear.....he should re-listen to UL&K and remind himself of what he is truly capable of....as for his shitty zoom pedal, i say shame on George for selling us crap....i took one apart and costed it out to around $12 of internal components.....
true
Yeah, there's probably a lot of artists who don't sound as good now like they did when they had other gear. I think Steve Morse had a great tone when he was with Dixie Dregs & playing the jazz fusion stuff, but the high gain Engl gear that he uses now in Deep Purple just isn't a nice as his older gear.
Lynch looks cooler with the grey hair really. With the jet black he just looks like Michael Angelo Batio...
I thought that Michael Angelo Batio had a Jeff Beck wig and 3 noses (a little one, a big one and a little one).
Infomercial. He's probably getting paid by each company he's talking about. I do not like Lynch's sound today. It's heavily processed to cover up his sloppy playing.
And to get my sound I use a six month overgrown toenail as a pick... I bet he don't use any of that shit.
That Mr. Scary pedal uses those worthless cab files. Sorry, they sound like crap. And MXR 90 are not a holy grail of anything...what's wrong with Lynch...you can get a used old one for 50 bucks on ebay.
this is just a video to sell a shitty zoom pedal
Ummmm, the next uhhh.....pedal , i want to show you is ummmmmm , this is ummmmmm very expensive, and ummmm I uhh love this pedal. And ummm, yea! Ummmmm this really helps for um shreddiness. And ummm...whoever paid for this needs to ummmm get a uh new spokesperson....uhhh just sayin
Who cares !
YET HERE YOU ARE??? GO AWAY... 🤡
20 year old crap gear
There’s nothing special about old pedals. In fact, the caps are usually worn out, and the switches and knobs are rusted. There’s $10 worth of parts in an MXR Phase 90.
Yet hete you are.... 😂😂😂🙄🤡 go away...
