Blaze "Blood & Belief" Guitar Tone

[Brett - K A L I S I A]

Andy,

Been listening to this album lately, do you remember how the guitar tone was achieved ? Inner sleeve says guitar (Jackson and Gibson) and bass players use Peavey amps, so was a 5150 solely used for this recording ?

Cheers !

If I'm not wrong it was just peavey triplexxx.
The first album: dual boogie
The second: ?
The third album: Triplexxx
In the first gigs Steve used a Marshall Jmp1 and marshall poweramp as well while John a 5150 mark1.
Then Steve switched from marshall to 5150 mark 1.
Steve and Wray play with triplexxx now.

pretty sure that was boogie

Well it did sound like a Boogie to me, but you said 5150 can be dialed in pretty close... Anyway the guitar sound on this album is great, do you remember if the rhythm tracks were doubled or quad ?

I am big fan of Blaze and I have to say that the sound of his albums is absolutely great!

At the moment i can find only the Blood and Belief CD, so i will ask only for it. Is the kick sampled? and how if it is

thanks and again - GREAT sound (and band)

just 2 tracks on that album

Okay cool, I guess the usual EMG81 + TubeScreamer applies as always

Boogie on Blood and belief? or boogie in the first and second album?

They said the first. To me in the second sounds similiar.

And... I don't know why, but I prefer the sound of the Messiah (not only guitar). Thenth Dimension's toms are really raw to my ear...
