    Drink alot of beer and play a JCM 800.

    From the looks of your punctuation, my guess is that you are doing well on the first assignment.

    Sleep. The sound doesn't collapse to riffs of early eyes either.

      his hands..do you have his "pings" nailed..pinch harmonics..!!!

      He averages about 50 pings per song!!

      To me his tone is an Old Marshall half stack JCM 800 , w/ a Boss DS-1 in the front and a good wah..Celestions are fine..that's pretty much it...that's what he used for years.

      He uses EVs now..my bud John like the Evs..all they are are old EVLs ..now their his sig that cost much more.

      I bought two Ampeg Lee Jackson VL100 heads back in '91..he endorsed those at the time..one of mine started on fire ..that was kewl..

      He also endorse Morely wahs at that time..I bought one..I like the Dunlap 535Q much better..he's got his own sig Wah..it's prolly in the 535 Q..in one of the 5 settings..I would think.

        Leather bracers. They add mass and sustain to your tone. If possible, borrow Kerry King's spiked arm sheath and use that.

              You also need a 10 pound chain for your wallet. That alters your posture so that you can properly hit your "pings" everytime.

                  Everytime that stinky Viking hits a "ping" he should send a check to Sykes for $5.00.

                  I like Zakk, but I really like making fun of him.

                  He can play like a motherfucker though.

                        The first step to overcoming a problem is admitting you have one, and you've taken that step :ROTF:
