George is incredibly knowledgeable about amps and it is something that is missing out of the guitar players of today. In the guitar world today you can find something made somewhere that will give you what you want. What George did was kind of mad scientist his way to the amazing sound that he used in the 80s. Very few people left with the knowledge George has. I'm like a kid again listening to him talk about amps. Great video.
Im glad George is still around hope he stays in good health hes one of a few 80s guitars very knowledgeable and love watching him play, loved Dokken George always had a badass tone and could play anything
I had the pleasure of hanging out with George for about an hour and he was incredibly kind. Talked about bands and music we were into, mid to late 90s. Stand up guy!
I personally met George lynch at Wembley arena who Dokken supported AC/DC in 87 blow up your video tour, plus I met all of AC/DC aswell apart from Phil Rudd. Simon Wright was the stand in drummer at that time.
George is the man. Love his Ty Tabor shout out. But I thought Ty played a Lab Series L5. He does have a very distinctive tone and can play his face off. Kings X is the shit.
Best studio recording I ever did was using a '70s Strat into a Music Man HD130..BRILLIANT tone, no overdrive or distortion pedal, it did not NEED that, lots of gain..can't praise it enough..only better amp I've had is my current '78 JMP MkII 50w, THAT amp is big BIG sex..
@@chrislestermusic I have a '78 JMP 50 watter also.....& it sounds so good as is, I don't even want to change the tubes that are in it.....3 different brand pre-amp tubes & that's how I bought it 13 yrs ago & it still sounds killer!Easily as good as my JVM.
I love how he just casually says " This a Trainwreck I would use this if I was in a blues or classic rock band" Maybe he doesn't know those things are going for $30k plus if you can even find one up for sale.
At times I completely zoned out.... what amp is behind that white cover? Yeah yeah George... keep talking about the stuff we can see... WHAT ARE YOU HIDING from us?? 🤣 Great collection!!! ☮💜🎶
I just want to say George L. You have inspired me to want to play since I was a young man an the video of you playing mr scary live with the black Les Paul was sick! Made me smile ear to ear man because I have that guitar too. An I love mine as well. Excellent job ! An I just love the instrumental album keep them coming please!! An don’t make us wait to long for another. 👍🏾
Got all the bases covered, young fans, shite almost your age, rocking the Rick Beano hair these days, great collection, as I whine on the floor missing my 71 & 73 Marshalls., 100 & a 50 watt. Just a lovely collection, kudos.
George came into my place Surf City Amp Room to pick up an old Solid State Acousitic Amp. I did not know who he was or of his bands. He was a really nice guy we talked for some time as he used to come to Huntington Beach as a kid and we shared many memories. He said he was in Dokken I told my sister in law and she was head over heals.
Thank you! I love George Lynch, he’s one of my heroes. He influenced my guitar playing, he’s one of the greats for sure. Gotta love that jack off vibrato he would do in his solos. Basically the last greats of the 70’s going into thev80’s L.A Rock Scene since Eddie Van Halen and Randy Rhoads are now gone. Thanks George! 👍🎸
This is fascinating to watch - there is such a wide variety of amps I have absolutely no interest in playing. Simply not my style. But it's very interesting to view another world. I'd love to hear him articulate just exactly what characteristics each amp has, and why that particular amp drew him in.
My favorite player of all time. Wicked was off the charts but some of the solos in the second LM album are just insane. Cold is the heart solo Go re-listen and thank me later Rock on Folks
I got all the digital stuff and when everyone is using an AxeFX 3 or Line6 Rack unit, we kinda get the same stuff from the same IRs most of the time. Then I got some tube amps and it's easy to sound original with those Mesa, ENGL, or Laney pre's and power amps. I'm glad to see George is still experimenting and using things that have their own soul. Of course, he can afford it. Something a lot of guitarists today don't get to experience when using amp sims and modelers.
George Lynch has been a big fan since the Dokken era. We design and produce the guitar by ourselves, and we are delighted and impressed by the unique guitar playing method and the sound that the riff is unbearable and grabs the heart. The studio at home is also fully equipped and is a great genius guitarist. George Lynch's Mr.scray's favorite song! Please continue to perform wonderful songs. I'm supporting you. Setagaya.Saburo 🌈🎸🤟
I am forever inspired by George’s passion for chasing awesome tones with all the gear he has!! He knows a good amp too!! There are no EVH brand amps in his collection for a reason!
?? how do you know it wasnt an EVH under the white cover? this was only a glimpse at 20 or so he wanted to show us. If he doesnt own an EVH its not bc they're not good amps. plus majority is 20+ years old.. too much gain for me personally
Amazing artist and audiophile ! You can feel the passion and dedication ! As a gearhead I would like to thank both Goerge and Youngguitar for such great upload.
I thought Georges best sound was on tooth and nail using old randall amps! Probably modded randall amps! Also In love those Randall RM 100 or 50 with removable pre amp sections...then send them out to salvation and wow they really kick ass then!!!
I knew a lot of players who used ADA MP-1s in the late 80s. They sounded great. They'd use either Boogie or Randall power amps. I also remember the Demeter and Groove Tube preamps of that era. Amazing tones. I dig the Park. A friend had a Park modded by Blaha that sounded incredible. Real Lynch kind of tone.
George,really love this collection,and how much You explain the capacity of each amp,do You have any of the Dokken amps now? do you ever use Behringer [german]effects racks,I use a dsp 2024 dual engine,and an ultra gain pro,combined with ultra medal pedal,sounds alright,cheers on the great career You have.
I was just thinking if I could speak to George I'd rave on about a Brownface Deluxe. And then I see his collection and there it is, a 6g3. Perfect collection in my opinion. I wonder if he likes Blackface or Tweed amps as well?
Didn't he play Genz Benz for a while? Didn't keep any of it? I had his signature 212 G-flex cab back when. Solid and sounded great. Anyway, nice line up!
Thanks George, you got pure treasure in those Amps. I have played most of those, and from the guitar 🎸 player side, they each have something cool to offer, or some thing to take your playing in a great direction for a song.
I've seen interviews, last few years, where Lynch claims he plugs directly into the same 68 Plexi he used in the 80s, turned way up. No pedals, no other brands. Now I'm looking at this series. Similarly, I've seen Nuno say the same thing, cable into the Plexi he used in the 80s, against a Rig Rundown showing his JCM 2000 with an always-on Rat and stuff his tech has to insert and remove for specific songs. Don't get me wrong; I'm pleased as punch to see Lynch's gear room here. I'm just beyond tired of magazine articles about cork sniffing and gate keeping in the name of these same musicians.
I use to have a lot of good gear like that now I'm down to a strat and a amp & 2 FX. I went thru a shit load of guitars. But I wouldn't change a thing it was quite a time.

Awesome person. Down to earth and humble. I wish there were more like George Lynch.
he was a lot different back when..... typical of hot shot guitarists...
Im glad George is still around hope he stays in good health hes one of a few 80s guitars very knowledgeable and love watching him play, loved Dokken George always had a badass tone and could play anything
George Lynch is one of the major players that made me choose to play guitar. Will always be a favorite
I had the pleasure of hanging out with George for about an hour and he was incredibly kind. Talked about bands and music we were into, mid to late 90s. Stand up guy!
This guy is a universal treasure to the guitar world.
To sit down with George and pick his brain would be priceless.
At his peak Lynch is amazing. Easily among the top 10 best metal guitarist of the 1980s.
Met George at the guitar show in Dallas. Nice guy! Tour George...Please.
Ahhhhhhh! The "Wicked Sensation" Soldano!
I agree 🤘!!
Thank you George for sharing the collection. You're so down to earth and honest about sharing info.
I personally met George lynch at Wembley arena who Dokken supported AC/DC in 87 blow up your video tour, plus I met all of AC/DC aswell apart from Phil Rudd. Simon Wright was the stand in drummer at that time.
George is the man. Love his Ty Tabor shout out. But I thought Ty played a Lab Series L5. He does have a very distinctive tone and can play his face off. Kings X is the shit.
Thanks for being so generous with your time & knowledge, George!!
+1 on the ADA rack. It's still in my rack and sees daily action. Its an amazing piece of gear.
George is amazing. Always gets me psyched to play. Got 1 of his signature guitars.👍
i would love the esp camo signature guitar but they are very pricey
George Lynch is awesome. Thank you for this great, intimate video of his amps. Very interesting!
Best studio recording I ever did was using a '70s Strat into a Music Man HD130..BRILLIANT tone, no overdrive or distortion pedal, it did not NEED that, lots of gain..can't praise it enough..only better amp I've had is my current '78 JMP MkII 50w, THAT amp is big BIG sex..
I agree. Those ‘78 JMP are fantastic. Especially the 50 watters. I had a 100 watter but a buddy has a couple of the 50 watts and they are so good.
@@chrislestermusic I have a '78 JMP 50 watter also.....& it sounds so good as is, I don't even want to change the tubes that are in it.....3 different brand pre-amp tubes & that's how I bought it 13 yrs ago & it still sounds killer!Easily as good as my JVM.
I love how he just casually says " This a Trainwreck I would use this if I was in a blues or classic rock band"
Maybe he doesn't know those things are going for $30k plus if you can even find one up for sale.
Haha was reacting to that too. He'd bring a Trainwreck to the bar gig haha!
No shit? Huh. I never heard of em. Well hell.
Funny. George was a wild man in the 80's but he's a very intelligent guy.
At times I completely zoned out.... what amp is behind that white cover? Yeah yeah George... keep talking about the stuff we can see... WHAT ARE YOU HIDING from us?? 🤣 Great collection!!! ☮💜🎶

George is such a sweetheart of a guy……..gotta love gear tours from a gear head..
Man this was a awesome time thanks George 🎸🎛🥁🍻🙂
Awesome, great to see you have a Canadian Marshall,, the Traynor.
Thank you YoungGuitar for these gear reviews! They are the best.
Got all the bases covered, young fans, shite almost your age, rocking the Rick Beano hair these days, great collection, as I whine on the floor missing my 71 & 73 Marshalls., 100 & a 50 watt. Just a lovely collection, kudos.
George is one of the greatest! Very down to earth and humble man love to see more content like this!
Let’s hear that 80s rack unit. It’s got to be ready by now!
The John Metz amps are very cool, I've plugged into a few.
Kevin Nelson is the designer of that MusicMan Amps, he still makes them, as well as the Randall amps he designed, RGT and ProTube.
the great great great Mr.Scary and his killer amps!!!
George came into my place Surf City Amp Room to pick up an old Solid State Acousitic Amp. I did not know who he was or of his bands. He was a really nice guy we talked for some time as he used to come to Huntington Beach as a kid and we shared many memories. He said he was in Dokken I told my sister in law and she was head over heals.
he has the best tone of all time. he keeps saying "sounds like a plexi or a plexi on steroids", so I got a SV20H and an overdrive pedal.
Thank you! I love George Lynch, he’s one of my heroes. He influenced my guitar playing, he’s one of the greats for sure. Gotta love that jack off vibrato he would do in his solos. Basically the last greats of the 70’s going into thev80’s L.A Rock Scene since Eddie Van Halen and Randy Rhoads are now gone. Thanks George! 👍🎸
Warren DeMartini of Ratt does a lot of that sliding vibrato too...
Total Gentleman, with so much pation for what he does, Thanks for sharing

JCM800 Early 80s. With his Lynch Mod Tube Thingy 12ax7. That must crank.
My favorite player of all time. Wicked was off the charts but some of the solos in the second LM album are just insane. Cold is the heart solo Go re-listen and thank me later Rock on Folks
Just came across this. What a nice video and George is a class dude!!!
80's badass especially your Without Warning Intro.

Well we know where he got the variac idea from and he has an Eddified Marshall. He’s a huge EVH fan.

Best thing ive learned in months on youtube.
Little known fact, both George and Slash more than likely used Marshall #39 from SIR studios.
You are correct.
I was just thinking if I could speak to George I'd rave on about a Brownface Deluxe. And then I see his collection and there it is, a 6g3. Perfect collection in my opinion. I wonder if he likes Blackface or Tweed amps as well?
So he needs to get his 80's sound back up and running huh, Full Dokken reunion 2022 perhaps? Just reaching for subtext here George!
That'd be interesting, but I doubt that they are all on the same page.
this was awesome !!
Didn't he play Genz Benz for a while? Didn't keep any of it? I had his signature 212 G-flex cab back when. Solid and sounded great. Anyway, nice line up!
Great video! Thanks for sharing! I wonder what amp is under the white cover? He obviously didn’t want to show it or talk about it.
And then you see, THE WALL of AMPS! Beautiful!
Awesome collection
Thanks George, you got pure treasure in those Amps. I have played most of those, and from the guitar 🎸 player side, they each have something cool to offer, or some thing to take your playing in a great direction for a song.
Seamless is a great album
A badass guitar player. And a hell of a guy.

Thanks George. Very cool
Great series of Scary Gear videos. Where is the Bogner Uberschall?
I just read an article published in 2020 that George wants to be hired by JUDAS PRIEST. Ok, how do we make this happen?
If I was playing bars just having fun I'd take my Trainwreck too!! LOL
What amp is under the white cover George ??🤔
The slo is also used by gary moore and Warren haynes.. Also by clapton.. How it could be less sweet than a plexi?
does anyone know what george used on the Under Lock n Key album? Just killer tone and licks on that
Bogner Marshall Snorkler, Jerry Cantrell original sound, tone.
ADA MP1 is awesome!!
I use to have a lot of good gear like that now I'm down to a strat and a amp & 2 FX. I went thru a shit load of guitars. But I wouldn't change a thing it was quite a time.
Laney from the master ...WOooo.. Love KINKS X
I still run my ADA MP-1.
I wish George was my neighbor 🎸🎶😎
George has the best gear to rock ever dude
why their is no video about speaker cabinets because 80% is the sound of the speaker cabinet the rest 20% is guitar and amp
Love this guy!!
Great stuff
As the Christians say “Jesus Christ “
What an amp collection!
Edit: George mention Ty Tabor!!!!
That clicking sound of the floyd arm sucks big time!
Gotta tighten it up.
Thank you Lord for GL and all his talents. Long live Mr Scary.
george is a monster--and holy shit,,,what a collection,,,,must be nice,,,,,keep rockin mr lynch
He's just another gear head and Eddie fan like the rest of us.
where is the Saraceno amp? :P
awesome!!!
Mind blown!👍😀
Great!
Man, he is such a cool guy.
Wonder what amp was under the white cover
Light up the 68 Marshall Eddizied and the Bogner clone !
1st rule of George Lynch Amp Tour: Never acknowledge the amp under the white dust cover
Awesome 🇨🇦
Whats the secret amp under the white cover???
What’s under the white wrap?
Incredible!
Where’s the NAYLOR gear??
