Dimebag's CFH Tone - Orange Super Crush 100, ME EQFH & Boss SD-1

[@mikerauter1859]

Your ear for tone matching is a gift Lamb.

[@VolatileDave]

Dude, the loop pedal seems like the perfect tool when dialing in the tone on the fly. I think you've just sold me one.

[@Jeffmetal42]

Yea, that is a pretty good idea.

[@Jeffmetal42]

Dime's tone was so unique to his style of playing. He's one of the few people that could pull that tone off without it being grating on the ears.

[@Durkhead]

From the footage iv seen on youtube i think zakk sounds better with the dimebag tone

[@Durkhead]

@@50StringsCovers what makes you say that?

[@Durkhead]

@@50StringsCovers i didnt see anything about marshall all i saw was a roland amp. But dammit now im looking at aural exciter plugins

[@nathancloud6344]

Dime has one of the best tones ever. I will never forget the first time I heard Cowboys. I was floored. He and Rex really complimented each other

[@LambChopper678]

Couldn't agree more!

[@rosskrause3926]

Talk about being floored..I used to watch Dime at Joe's Garage in Fort Worth Texas right before..during and after Cowboys from He'll came out...Pantera were really cool to us all there..and they partied with us all..best times of my life ! Gotta give it up to you Lamb Chopper excellent job here.

[@EmoDKTsuchiya]

Was hoping for Heresy to make an appearance. Outstanding replication!

[@jaaaaab]

shattered is so slept on! glad you played it

[@jamespell1138]

One of the best on the album, amazing vocals too

[@demoncleaner204]

Fantastic playing and explaining! I could listen to this man talk shop All. Day. Long. Subscribed!

[@Lodgiefitness]

Seem's to me that any half decent rock/metal tone is 90% of the time ANY Tube amp, V30's/ Greenback/ Creamback, and a good ear for EQ. Solid work as usual LC It's great that this is a SS amp

[@Durkhead]

Im starting to think that its not the tubes that made everything sound good but its the old speakers. Most new speakers are made with plastic and rubber where as the old speakers where made with metal baskets and paper cones

[@lucianomateus351]

In Lamb we Trust. He looks like so organized with equipment, so he can extract the best sounds.

[@CPUrafael]

Wow...Wonderful tone!! And you play the riffs very well. The Boss Loop Station pedal is really useful. Very good! Mango and Ollie :))

[@dalejacksonmo]

That is an amazing tone brother...right on

[@rugglettes7517]

Message in Blood! That has to be the best Pantera song that gets so slept on

[@Highrollinhunter]

I always loved Dimes tone its a chaotic tone in the right way

[@mooferoo]

That sounds amazing. Even got the huge chunkiness in the palm mutes right.

[@Hrian_Bayes]

Wow spot on. Killer stuff as always

[@timgarza8028]

I don't play as much as I used to, but I still enjoy watching your vids man! Have a great ear for tones and the chops to back it all up. You sold me on th DSL and the ME para EQ

[@aaax9410]

Your lead was on song in this video man , sweet 👍👍

[@thrashnbash314]

I've had a Looper on my Amazon wish list for about 4 months now.... yet another thing to add to cart. lol Thanks for another great video. Crushing those Pantera tones.

[@joh040]

I literally just bought that looper based on your video, so I can dial in a full blown dime tone. I just built a dime rig loaded with pq3 / pq4 / aphex 104 etc. great video as always lambchopper 😜🔥🤘

[@johnwardle9667]

This was absolutely awesome man! You nailed it like a god! I find a little chorus works nicely on the cemetery gates cleans. But it's like having a touch more or less salt on your dinner, it tastes good either way.

[@Brennosguitarsandgear]

[@MasterEffectsPedals]

[@ridley3704]

This sold me on this head. I use an EVH Stealth 6L6 50 mostly, but just want a nice SS. Had a warhead head but it didn't have the growl of the Orance. I love the 15x2 Warhead cab though, it is beast.

[@_cosmix_]

Two Olies in one vid is smth i never knew i needed in my life.

[@begoz5223]

Great video as usual, I still have some doubts about Domination solo. I think Dime used Chorus or a little of Phaser to have that weird but beautiful tone (and Delay too). What do you think?

[@PabloSantos-bq9gf]

You nailed with the tone.

[@Mindaugas.R]

Great tones and playing like always! Would be interesting to hear far beyond driven’s tone, it’s really weird and distinct sounding.

[@EdsonSantana-f3q]

Mr. L, you made me learn ( just a bit ) english for understand what and how you do the 'sauce' of the tones... been learning so much with your tips... thank you for your time Sr. from BR 👈😎👈

[@LambChopper678]

Appreciated mate, thank you

[@kieranharris2881]

Defo do more tones with this amp maybe rtl

[@robriste]

can you do some more full tracks from cowboys, awesome stuff, thx

[@robinpare5155]

That could be something cool for your channel, getting a sound with the wrong amp and gear, like doing Zakk Wylde sound but no Marshall, wong pickups and all the wrong gear BUT still getting the ZW tone by using EQ's and different overdrives.

[@LambChopper678]

I thought about something like that, would be a good show for a live stream 🤘🏻

[@jefffoster5340]

Need some Jaguar speakers to nail it!

[@RRW276]

Hey, you got a new bird?! A parrot? Certainly is a beautiful little thing.

[@clamplugh]

@lambchoppers678 is the Master Effects EQFH pro worth the extra $$ over the EQFH for chasing Dime's tone? All you're demos of both pedals are excellent, but its hard to judge through KZbin how much better the pro pedal is. Awesome channel btw.

[@LambChopper678]

If you’re wanting to run it through the front end with the mxr 6 band just like Dime did then the eqfh pro is what you need but if you’re after a really solid eq for the fx loop to dial loads of tones then I prefer the classic. The pro has a really different gain structure just like the pq3. I find it’s really difficult to tame in the. Hope that helps The standard eqfh is my all time favorite

[@clamplugh]

Ok yeah that's really helpful. Thanks mate

[@metler7642]

Bro, love your vids, Dime is my idol, this is beautiful, if you want some ideas, i suggest 'Carcass: Swansong' & Legendary riffs like 'Childs play' 'Black star' etc.

[@jww732]

Makes me so happy to see you do more with the orange crush!

[@junglemast3r]

this amp sucks for metal stock but I got mine a 10 band graphic eq and the SD-1 and have been getting some GREAT tones for things from knocked loose drop tooned hardcore to tight thrashy crossover metal. (for anybody else with one of these, the boss sd-1 is extremely important, a tube screamer really just boosts the mids and this amp is already too heavy in the mids). Ive been thinking about getting a boss kitana head too, which one do you think is better for chugs?

[@LambChopper678]

I like this one. You’re totally right with what you said imo. I think it’s a really good foundation amp that you have to add to. It’s got that looser saggy heavy bottom end that is easy to tighten and get some cool tones. The RG’s were horrible on their own. This amp has potential for some brutal metal tones that nobody expects

[@Chickendipupdate]

I have the katana mk2 and was thinking to switch to the orange for brutal death metal in A standard,have a sd1 as well, do you think it's worth it?. The kat shrills alot

[@junglemast3r]

@@Chickendipupdate I am very happy with my orange and have been even using it for recording in the studio with great results. You will need a 10 band eq to cut out the low miss tho. The stock amp is terrible for high gain

[@necroticsynapse4006]

Thanks for taking your time to make this. how would you suggest using the mxr 6 band with the super crush 100? In front or in the loop? Same Dime settings for the 6 band? Thanks again!

[@LambChopper678]

I like using it like an OD boosting mids in front of the amp. If you’ve got an overdrive pedal then I’d put that in front and use the 6 band in the fx loop to a sculpt the tone.

[@adrianwilkinson5172]

Hey, dude! Been a subscriber a long time, man! Over in Newcastle NSW. I picked up a 5150 iconic 40W combo. Thing is great! But, I want to get some better Dimebag tones. Any suggestions how to go about it? Love your videos, man. Keep it up!

[@lieutenantdan2217]

He's got a few videos on using eqs. I cant state enough how eq pedals make a big difference. Dime used eqs through a randall, randalls have loose low ends. With the eq dime tightened up that low end transforming the amp. That 5150 has a tight bottom already, but you need at least one eq to match his tone.

[@Malevolent_DaniT]

Can you make Pantera's Cowboys From Hell tone on Boss Katana please?

[@pieflies]

Have you successfully any of his other katana tones? I haven’t been able to get them to work. I expected them to need tweaking since I don’t have the same setup as him but when I tried they sounded completely different and incredibly muddy. Maybe my Katana is having issues.

Haven’t done a thing to it. I’ve had it maybe 7 years now and played the hell out of it. Sounds exactly the same as new

[@ehambright]

Thanks man! @@LambChopper678

[@brettkenney6464]

@lambchopper678 would you pick it over the katana head?

[@brettkenney6464]

@Lambchopper678

[@LambChopper678]

Really depends what you’re after, both are fun but the katana has so many tones. This is simple and does it’s job well.

[@brettkenney6464]

I bought the katana mk2 100 head downloaded the software and EQ and had a 6 band in the loop something about it didn't mesh with me I felt like a lot of the patches weren't that great either. Bought the Super Crush and like the response feel a lot better. Thankyou for the info, Love your videos!

[@gitarspan]

Is the gain of the amp on max?

[@LambChopper678]

Nah it gets a little too loose at the end. It’s at 3:30-4:00

[@Mickocarbomb]

do you still have your dime guitars lamb?

[@LambChopper678]

No mate, I sold them maybe 10 years ago. They weren’t very good. I really wanted them to be awesome. Especially the FBD. I had wanted that guitar for so long and was a total disappointment. The neck was warped and the finish was really rough. Production line quality control wasn’t there

Poor parrot, listening to garbage

[@KaddysJamKave]

Arghhhh I hate the Super Crush... it's garbage for high gain but it can indeed be modified with a boost / EQ to make it slightly rise from the pile of dog poop that it is buried upon :D

[@Buttface1981]

I have to agree. I got a new one for £300 and returned it next day. Not much gain and just sounded like it had a blanket over it, even with an eq pedal. Was shocked at all the great reviews

[@iLLuzion1st]

The blanket effect is the most annoying thing an amp can do. Like if the presence is all the way up and it still needs to go up 100% drives me nuts@@Buttface1981

[@skundini4999]

I do not see Oranges giving Dime tone, Oranges suck.

[@Jeffmetal42]

I wouldn't say Orange sucks, just not my preference in amp heads. They sound great in the right band/mix.

[@johncarter1852]

Hey chopper, hello from Texas. I have looked high and low for info on a band named Xerath when it comes to tone. They were using Peavey JSX heads and I own that and a Peavey XXX. I have no idea what else they are using for their rhythm tone but I have tried a number of ways to achieve it without success. Well if you have any idea I would love to know, anyway love what you do and best wishes.

[@iLLuzion1st]

Hey saw your comment and thought I would give two cents. They are playing 7 string guitars. Definitely not a scooped 90s tone. Very mid forward. If you find some videos on how slipknot dials in their guitar tone, then focus the mids even moreso. You should be in the ballpark. Also, you can definitely tell it is heavily studio processed. That gives it that thick multi tracked/panned sound. Hearing that pick attack so clearly too tells me the presence is likely up significantly. Hope that gets you pointed in a decent direction mate. Good luck tone hunting. Cool band.

[@johncarter1852]

@iLLuzion1st Thanks for the direction, yeah my guitars can get a little muddy through the amp because of the 7 strings. They are definately getting that separation in the bottom end. Thanks again.

[@iLLuzion1st]

You will def want some sort of boost or EQ in front. Maybe in the loop too!@@johncarter1852
