Hi Everyone.
I'm having trouble getting a lead tone that I'm happy with. What I'm after is a very smooth legato style tone with tons of sustain (think Steve Vai - For the Love of God).
Can anyone point me in the right direction as to what sort of effects or amp settings I could use to get close to this? (I'm thinking some form of compression pedal + delay + maybe something like a tube screamer?)
What I'm coming up with at the moment just seems a bit too crunchy and not smooth enough.
Its for low volume home use mostly, I dont gig on guitar at the moment (thats what my Irish Fiddle is for
)
I'm going through a 40w Line 6 Spider Valve 112 (the Bogner designed tube amp) and playing a JEM 7VWH (DiMarzio Evolutions Neck and Bridge).
Any help would be appreciated.
