Look, it's not difficult, it sounded good with that combination, player, gtr, head, cab etc. There's no rules, I can't stress that anymore. The Jackson we had with the 81 had too much gain with the Marshall.

It really suprises me, around here, when people think that just because Andy uses certain equipment or techniques everyone else wants to use them too, or think that NOTHING else ever works as well.
No disrespect to Andy, the guys great, and his work fuckin rules, but i think he proved my point to you all: it's not what you have, its what you do with it. Having a studio like Andy wont make you sound like Andy, being Andy WILL!
If you wana be like Andy Sneap; use what you have/ what you like/ think sounds best, as Andy does.
And just in case you're wandering, i wasn't trying to use Andy's name as many times as possible in the one post

I don't wanna rip off Gary Holt's tone, If it wasn't for Exodus, I wouldn't exist! I've already ripped off every riff from Fabulous Disaster! I'm just curious, if Gary uses a TS808, or similar, before his JCM800. It's good to see Exodus killing again! Gary Holt fucking rules!

I'm going to dodge the various colored hand bags and ladies purses flying about in this thread...
If you have a doubt about which album has better guitars, to YOU, listen to Raze, and then listen to scar spangled.. the difference is obvious.. the guitars on Shovel Head are MUCH more brutal and satisfying than those on Tempo... IMO of course.
Nebulous - dont mind metalkingdom.. he is an opinionated cat.. we all are.
I'll add some media:
4 seconds of guitars. which one do you prefer? One is tempo.. one is shovel head. pretty obvious. =) dont sue me RIAA.. they are only 4 seconds each:

I like the guitars on Shovel Headed better than on Tempo. I like the vocals better too.
Plus shovelheads were the best motors to ever live in a Harley...hehe....

There is a great difference, i can see why peopl like the TOTD tone, but i think im with you on this. The SHKM tone just crushes.

i never really listened to SHKM cos i don't like the vocals, so i can't comment on the tone, but i love the tone on TOTD.

I dig the fact that Andy and the band went for a totally different vibe with each one. For my personal preference, the Tempo guitar tone is absolutely perfect. But the SHKM tone has a whole different, edgy and modern vibe so I can see how some would dig that more.
Much more interesting than doing the same exact thing every time out.

i can't quite believe anyone would prefer the SHKM tone over TOTD no offence...it's just that TOTD has one of the best thrash metal guitar tones EVER. my only gripe is that it's rather on the sterile side, which is the reason why it's only 9.5/10 rather than a 10/10
i also enjoy the drum sound of that record, quite clear yet natural sounding.
