I agree. SOH had the best riffs. So creepy and moody. Jeff at his finest. He will always be the heart and soul of that band and one of the most important contributors to metal.

@@skinkroot you're reaching now. I'm willing to bet that Lamb would gladly accept an endorsement from an American based company as long as he agreed with their principles and they were okay with honest reviews.
I was 15 when this came out. Still hard to believe that they're retired....thank you for keeping this alive and damn....your Live Undead gave me chills!
Spill the blood, epic. How on earth are you able to deliver this level of content every week ? 9 min. video is probably 9 hours in the making plus time that goes into getting your green bandmate to agree on what epic tone to recreate. Awesome job dude.
Thank you man, every spare minute I have each week goes towards the show. After a 40hr working week, kids soccer & family stuff there’s not much spare. Definitely appreciated mate 👍🏻
Received my DSL20 and Captor X a couple days ago and I am in heaven right now, such killer tones from it. Your videos helps a lot with dialing everything in. 🤟
Man, you've really got a good grasp on the mechanics of recorded music, including why things sound the way they do and how to replicate guitar tones. Not to mention playing some of my favorite songs while using some of my favorite gear. Many thanks
You're so right. The South of Heaven intro riff is probably the most evil riff ever written. Great tone btw! I feel like I've been overlooking marshalls for metal.
Dude, you are a monster player. Holy crap. I thought I was pretty tight with my pick technique, but listening to a recording of myself, then listening to yours immediately after.... good lord. Nice stuff man, thanks for the cool videos
@@edgarfenderusa6629 Oh I actually have the DSL40 combo... basically the same thing...it has 70/80 Celestion I think...I wanna get a cab for it tho but not sure what I wanna get...what kind do you have?
So awesome! I had just commented under one of your last videos about that tone and here it is! Hope you'll do a Christ Illusion tone video someday, the guitar sound on it is so brutal! Keep it metal, love your videos and I'm definitely sold on the sonic possibilities of the DSL20! I'll get that one soon! Can't wait to riff some Slayer on it!
Thanks for answering my question on the Joyo's! Once you dial in the settings...the other 90% is the player for the tone, for which you are a great one!
Hell yeah Lamb 🤟 Been getting into Slayer a lot recently and man they deserve more praise then they get. Always look forward to uploads from you. Keep rocking man love your vids and channel.
This right here is why I picked up a guitar. I bought this album the day it came out and terrorized my neighbors because it had to be listened to over and over again as loud as I could crank it. This video is cranked too and as usual your audio is spot on! Love everything you share! Thanks so much!
Oh yes!! I was only thinking about you covering South of Heaven earlier this week!! One of my favourite Slayer Albums!! Ghosts of War is my favourite off that record! Reign in Blood. South of Heaven. Seasons of the Abyss. What a trilogy of Albums!!
I bought a Torpedo Captor X on your recommendation. I was nervous because of the cost, but it has reignited my enthusiasm for playing and experimenting with all my gear. It makes such a huge difference blasting the volume on your tube amp and being able to actually use it in the house. Best purchase I have made in a long long time. Also nailed it as usual.
Excellent! South of Heaven was so moody. The drum forward production and the weird vocal harmonies Rick Ruben was recording at that period was so great. Then the guitars! Nailed it Chopper.
Chopper..u r so...good ...he he he listen to your knowledge is so inspiring and do understand the IMPORTANCE of the EQ in the guitar signal effects.. thanks so much again...hope your sharings can be noticed by guys from the gear you use...some recognition from them will be very fair to you!
Great vid, as always you do a fantastic job of breaking down the tone of the best thrash bands. Everytime i watch one of your vids I keep telling myself I have to pick up a DSL..
So glad you brought out the King V for this one. A Jackson into a Marshall is simply iconic. I bought my Jackson King V because I just wanted to play slayer riffs, and it is perfect for that, and everything else trash. I love it.
Nailed it man. Iconic tones on this lp, one of my fave Slayer albums. Not the biggest fan of Slayer but SOH has this thing about it that just kicks ass. Well done Chopper.
Amazing as always! The other day I managed to get a tone that sounds like the lead the tone from south of heaven from my orange crush 20 and my pedals but your accuracy blew me away. Jamming along with this vid is gonna be awesome later. 🤘
This is awesome man thank you so much for what you do. I applied most of this to my 6505 combo and mxr 10 band with just a few mild tweaks, and while it obviously isn’t nearly as spot on as this, it’s still a killer tone that is good enough for me. Just discovered you from Reddit but man you are awesome!
Good stuff as always, I look forward to the weekly uploads! Ever think about trying some more classic tones like ACDC or Sad Wings of Destiny? I have the DSL20 also and found some good tones in the classic gain channel dimed with joyos Taurus (klon-like clone) pushing the front end a little and a small amount of gain from the pedal. I'd love to see your take on those, Take care!
Hey Lambchopper! Really huge fan of your videos. No one zeros in on guitar tones quite like you do. I'm wondering though, would you consider doing guitar tone videos on other genres? Don't get me wrong I love metal more than anything but I'd also be especially interested in videos of your style showing how to get the 90s grunge guitar tones from bands like nirvana and alice in chains if you dig their sound too?
@LambChopper678 Just started bingeing your vids. Best on RUclips. Well done mate. I'm relearning to play after a 25 year break and bought a nux mg 300 amp modeller. Now can you buy one please and show me how to capture all your tones using that now haha Might save me more years of frustration. Keep up the good work !
Crazy sound! Would you recommend a mesa or marshal for starter Amp was between. Mesa/Boogie Boogie Open Back Cabinet Bronco (2x12", 180 Watts) or Marshall Origin 412B Straight Guitar Speaker Cabinet (240 Watts, 4x12") thank you lamb
Awesome, brother! The riff about 0:35 is very close to King Diamond's Halloween! Some suggestions for new tone videos: King Diamond, Kreator "Extreme Agresion"/ "Comma of Souls" era, OverKill "Years of Decay". With the DSL! Cheers from Portugal 🍺🤘🇵🇹
@@TheTillhammer You know Andy? Its sutch a great metalhead and a true guitar hero! But also Michael Deaner, Pete Black and the new guitar player are GREAT players! Id like to know that Heavy Metal gentleman, Andy LaRoque! Cheers from Portugal 🍺🤘🇵🇹
I find the Joyo 6 band eq is fine. I use it with an NS-2 and my DSL20 and it works nicely. Thanks for the recommend on the DSL20 btw LambChopper. It's a nice little amp I can use at home without blowing my windows out or pissing off the neighbours. I love the thing to death.
Thank you for the video. Excellent job again on the way you built your videos. Please continue this way and never add promotion or trying to sell stuff from an endorsed band. Also, how's the tone between a JCM2000 vs this small DSL20 ? Is that something similar ?
Jeff Hanneman made so many of the classic riffs and songs on South of Heaven, it's crazy. I remember an interview with Tom Araya where he said him and Jeff were mainly responsible for South of Heaven, because Kerry King had something to attend to during the recording and mixing of the album. When you look at the credits, it's easy to believe Tom. Jeff Hanneman made South of Heaven, Live Undead, Beyond the Crooked Cross, Read between the Lies, Cleanse the soul and Spill the blood, all by himself. Remember that Jeff Hanneman also made Angel of Death and Raining Blood on Reign in Blood, as well as War Ensemble, Blood Red, Spirit in Black, Dead Skin Mask and Seasons in the Abyss... I mean, think about it... WOW!
I believe this is the 3rd time I've made the same comment but It's no lie I only know how to play the drums. I've been playing for 35 years. I don't have fingers man, cannot play bass or guitar. But I can not wait to get up on Sunday morning, where I live, and see that notice. New LambChopper! And this week SLAAAAAAAAYER!
Great video. I have the same Marshall setup but the speakers in my cab sound a little muddy for some reason. Might trade it in for a Mesa or EVH 212 cab.
Does the DSL20 here have the same type tone/gain as the JCM800 2203? Just wondering of settings on these DSL vids would work there... with a few tweaks.
