I swear Aldrich never gets old.

[@ahmedtanvir9299]

He is vampire.

[@JeffMillerCreative]

What makes Doug a pro: He understands the signature elements of whatever act he's supporting, and embraces them. Then he fucking crushes them with intense articulation, swinging feel, and mindblowing solos.

[@merqury5]

What a blessing having worked with Ronnie.

[@ollid.5590]

Doug is a riff master, definitely. I love how he develops and applies a new riff in mine with the musical blueprint of the band he is working for.
Spontaneous idea: If he and Richie Faulkner did a project together that would definitely turn into a great riff-based thunderous album 🤘🏻

[@keithmenking588]

I listen to Dead Daisies on my walks almost daily. Doug simply has the tasty lick and riff feel always .... just fantastic!!! Thanks Doug!!!

[@NelderGuitar]

Killing the dragon is such a good record.

[@99cobra01]

DA is one of my favorite guitar players.

[@mesfeken1]

Same here....since I heard the man play the solo of 'Gates of Babylon' live.....

[@tymanngruter1808]

If you ever have seen him playing live, your jaw is still disconectid! Unbelieveble good guitarslinger! ♨️♨️♨️

[@GuitarLessonsMadeEasy]

Love Doug !!!! Hard working amazing guitarist !

[@Hangryjohndoe]

Love it,Doug is a fantastic musician . 🤘🤘

[@henriquecamboim]

I wish he had chosen at least one of his riffs of his Hurricane days.

[@alphalonzo]

Dance Little Sister is a great riff from his Hurricane era

[@KjgtrPV]

The riff of “Good to be bad” vaguely reminds me of that of “Knucklebones” by David Lee Roth 🙂

[@Crunch104]

The Dio album you did is among the Dio band's best!

[@sirtogii5216]

[@AllanGildea]

[@johnbailey9314]

Hell of a player

[@jimjim7008]

Great t-shirt love to own one of those.. where can you get them?

[@6120orange]

Sounding righteous, as ever. Tone for days
Gibson been moaning about product placement. Well that Scala solves a problem.
And Dimarzio moaning about cream bobbins. Guess they were called out too.
Sticking it to everyone 👊🏼🤘

[@beanapalooza6614]

What no BMR Riffs??
Plus love the Gibby tee-shirt, but a look-a-like single cut axe
😅

[@user-xd2rj1tx4y]

What about sienfeld them song show was on bass

[@sylvainclere3523]

Les riff les plus simples sont souvent les meilleurs

[@patrickmckay6621]

a great song doesn't really have to have a sophisticated riff.Not many players know what a song needs.

[@chrisjmansa]

What brand guitar is that

[@mpr2366]

Looks like a Leo Scala model.

[@verysurvival]

[@Juicexlx]

Rare living legend. Rumour is, he amplified his guitar from a Tin pan casserole...

[@karinaliszt]

Метталл ! Урра

[@martinlahaie6012]

Blackstar endorsed player...

[@Juicexlx]

Everybody else remembers him as a Marshall player, but what do I know?

[@martinlahaie6012]

@@Juicexlx he's now with Blackstar...dunno why but his tone is not as before

[@Juicexlx]

@@martinlahaie6012 Got him dialed on a Marshall forever. Heck. He even made my JMD:1 a killer amp, which it is, but with a fiddle

[@jesseparrish9198]

Didn't Doug have a signature Jet city amp?

[@BramEngelenMusic]

​@@jesseparrish9198 Nope, ENGL designed a prototype Doug Aldrich Signature amp back in 2006 based on the Ritchie Blackmore model and his personal Cameron modded Marshall JMP but with a tweaked circuit and an EL34-based power section instead. That deal didn't go through and after noting down some more ideas from a.o. Gary Moore, Jimmy Page, Scott Gorham and Vivian Campbell after they tried the prototype, they did eventually release it under the name 'Artist Edition 100' - which is still in production

[@BHJ7115]

My grandma has the exact hair style. 😂

[@GeneralTHC]

Come on, bro, you've been playing guitar 50 years, let's see something impressive.

[@chrischoir3594]

Dead Daisies' song writing is plain terrible

[@SKARKIBANEZ]

It"s too low tuned
🙄🙄🙄🙄🙄

[@roadhog-so8en]

I want to hear about Lion,Bad Moon Rising and that incredible Hurricane record he did.
