Megadeth tone on James Hetfield signature guitar, Epic xD
I don’t own a Jackson guitar so it’s the best replacement I could find. 😆
@@ShredHeads Do justice to your insane skill level, buy a Jackson.
@@mrfashionguy1 I do plan on getting one soon.
@@ShredHeads save up for the Dave Mustaine Gibson 😯 lol
It’s disrespectful and I fuckin love it
Sick Bro... So good. Mustaine was a RIFF master! You nailed the tone and channeled you inner "RUST" for this one. Well done my friend!
Thanks dude, yeah Mustaine is one of the riff GOATS along with Hetfield. Early Megadeth was incredible.
It's the shirt that completes this tone
yep, you figured it out.
Damn bro! I did not think that getting this tune would get so deep! Thank you so much for the research you’ve done for us! Keep it up!
Thanks dude. 👍
Another spectacular video!! The guitar isolated part is SOOO helpful!! Thank you so much for doing this! Rust in Peace and Master of Puppets, the top 2 metal albums of all time IMO.
Yep, two legendary albums.
All of Marty's solos were using the Bogner Triple Giant on that album. They switched to CAE 3+ preamps for Countdown.. There was a page dedicated to thier sounds/gear/settings per album but can't find it now. Four of the first (only) 25 Triple Giant's went to Megadeth.
I do think they used the triple giant. Some people say it was an 800. Honestly I have owned 800’s and they don’t sound sonically that similar to what we hear on RIP. I own a bogner fish and it sounds a lot more similar to what I hear on RIP.
Some more Rust in Peace riffage at the end would be nice. Either way, criminally underrated content!
Thanks dude, I appreciate the support. 👍
So happy to see a video done on this!
I'm glad you liked the video. I have other cool videos covering different albums. Check them out. 👍
You deserve 1M subs.
I think so too. 😅👍
Very well researched. I think youre right
Thanks man. I always try to present accurate info. If I’m not sure I will usually state that it’s just speculation.
Dave has said that he used a Marshall JCM800 to record rust in peace, or at least for the holy wars guitar solo, they put all the knobs on 10 and faced the cab to a wall and put the mic in between according to his book.
It’s certainly a possibility. I have read his book however, my biggest theory against them using Marshall 800’s is that the album’s sound doesn’t sound like a typical Marshall or modded Marshall. It has this really gritty quality that I do hear in that Bogner pre amp.
I heard it was a Bogner triple preamp(prototype or release version) with BK Butler RealTube 922 for the Marty solos.
We will probably never know for sure but yeah, that’s what I think they used.
@@ShredHeads You can see the BK Butler Real Tube in that same video-clip that featured the Triple Giant preamp. It's right above it in fact. Michael Nielsen also did an entire video on that preamp on his channel, it's DEFINITELY the one Marty used for the leads on RiP as well as the lead sounds on the tour that supported the release of that album (ie from 90 to 91).
@@Nghilifa I have one and It does sound like the album but there is so much conflicting stuff out there. Marty himself stated they used Marshall's and some of the pre-amp stuff they had, but who really knows its very likely for at least some leads they used the real tube II.
You can still find a Hafler Triple Giant. Add tube poweramp, 4x12 sealed cabinet, eq to scoop mids and pedals.
You can use a Hafler TG, However Bogner himself said that the ones he made the originals, sound different and even went on to say they really aren’t even the same pre amp. I’m sure you can still get some good sounds out of it.
@@ShredHeads You are correct , but trying to find a Bogner Triple Giant is like trying to find a hen with teeth. There is the Bogner serial 010 Fish preamp for sale in Reverb for 7 or 8 thousand. I to see Megadeth play a bunch of time in San Diego and Dave was said he had a Hafler Triple Giant in his rack for when the Bogner had to get sent back to get fixed. There was definitely much more variation in the handwired Bogners .
@@frankrizzo7781 yeah, an original Bogner TG is pretty much impossible to find. I do have an original Bogner Fish and it sounds a lot like Rust in peace. I will make an in depth video about it in the near future.
@@ShredHeads hey what does this all sat about the music made today. We are trying to figure out tines from 30 years ago because everything for the most part sounds the same and sucks. I hope some good new music get made again.
@@frankrizzo7781 yeah modern metal is very generic. There is some stuff that's kinda cool but never as good as the older classic stuff.
Dave had 2 of the bogner hardwired triple giants. These were builds by bogner himself and are kind of as rare as hens teeth. The Hafler release a Triple Giant preamp that gives 90 % to of the hardwired and you can still buy used for around 1000. A bogner fish will cost you at least 5k and I have not seen a bogner triple giant for sale in 20 years.
Yeah, I mean it’s a rumor it was used on the record. It is confirmed they used it live. I have also never seen one in the wild.
That sounded very close. So I need to go buy a $1800 Kemper Profile Head (or rack) and order the $10 profile pack and that's it? I see where this is a direct profile and not studio. I don't know much about Kemper but researching now.
Thanks for your comment. No, you certainly don't need to buy a Kemper to get something similar. The Kemper is a great unit but there are other more budget friendly options. my top budget pick would be the Marshall DSL series. If money is no concern you could also look into getting a Bogner ubershall or other Bogner amp. In my opinion the Bogner stuff has a similar sound to what we hear on RIP.
Wish fractal would model and it doesn’t sound like the phish I think you are correct. I think it’s the early vintage 30s the cae+ was countdown.
I actually have an original fish with the vht 2150 power amp. It does sound a lot like RIP definitely more than an your average jcm 800. It’s likely they used the triple giant based more on the time line of when the album was made. The album was tracked in early 90’. The fish came out in 90’ but I believe it was mid 90’ when it was officially released. It’s possible they had a prototype of the fish maybe, who knows. The albums producer mike clink did know bogner during this time so it’s a believable rumor that they used some kind of bogner on this record.
Did you use the sharp channel on Bogner profiles? Do you think the sharp channel on your fish sounds closer? I'm working on building an amp and I am wondering what I should build.
I think I used the brown channel. But it was a while ago I honestly can’t 100% remember. The fish does sound a lot like the record especially the strato channel IMO.
@@ShredHeads thanks! I'll check the fish strato out first then, the schematic looks pretty similar to a modded Marshall I have.
oh, how did you got that esp jaymz hetfield ?
its a replica but it does have real EMG pickups
@@ShredHeads ok, thanks
Te quiero
how did you get that tone!? "i downloaded a preset." oh, thanks lmao
It’s not a preset lmao. It’s a Kemper profile of a very rare pre amp that megadeth used for a brief period during the rust in peace era. It was confirmed by video evidence that megadeth was using it at the time. I understand that not everyone has a Kemper but that is in fact what I used for the video.
Hey man, where can I purchase this profile?
Go to big Harry guitars website. I think that’s the name of the guys website.
Can you do a video recreating this in the AXE FX3 please?
I'll make that video at some point. Experiment using the Bogner fish models in the axe fx. That's the best pre-amp to use IMO for the RIP sound.
Forget the tone WHERE DİD YOU FİND THAT MX 220 İTS MY DREAM GUİTAR
It’s a replica I had someone make me. It does have real EMG pick ups. The same ones that the real deal would have. It’s actually a nice guitar.
Do you remember what the amp settings you used on this tone were?
I don’t remember exactly, I do remember that this tone doesn’t have a lot of low end so run the bass lower than the mids and treble. Gain shouldn’t be cranked either. Hit the strings hard for a tight attack.
@@ShredHeads do you think youll try to recreate it since I think saw you have the bogner fish? Which I also heard they used.
@@AidenCantrell I have a lot of cool videos planned but I'm still busy with all my stuff being moved to my new place. The Bogner fish does sound a lot like RIP. it's possible they used the fish but it's more likely they used the triple giant but honestly they probably don't sound that different. The fish was made right after so it's still that early Bogner sound. I have a some really cool Megadeth videos planned so stay tuned.
As far as guitar goes this is indeed the best album ever.
I agree
