Ultimate Rhoads

Since i recently got a decent amp i've been trying out different tones and researching online a bit. Anyway i wanted to try out my ten band EQ and remembered a site i came across about 4 years ago when i was first looking up bits on Randy. I completely forgot about it and wondered if it still existed but i managed to track it down.
(To the mods, I don't think there is a link to the site on UR or TK, correct me if i am wrong)

Personally i think it is the best resource on the web, when i first used this for advice i was using just an EQ through a Marshall MG and it still sounded amazing. So in between my travels, trying to figure out how Yngwie and Vai get their tone i dragged out the EQ and my Dist + and gave it a whirl, and it sounds good whats amazing is the clarity this setup gives, better than anything else i can achieve at higher gain levels.

The best thing is the guy gives the exact settings he uses on his gear and advice on adjustments to tailor diff amps.

Anyway we seem to have a lot of news members in the last couple of months so this may help them if their interested in rhoads tone.

P.S. anyone know where this site is from?

Just to note this isn't to closest i've ever got to a rhoads esque tone. Interestingly that was with just a Les paul straight into a Epi valve junior. But hopefully this will be informative and interesting nonetheless.

Hhhhmmmm...

is this randy perry's website or am i confused with diary of an axeman?

Haven't seen that site in a while... I used to link to that on .tk every time people would discuss RR tone questions... of course that was years ago.

Neither of them. This is a website of a fan from Finland.

I see the confusing!
Randy Perry's biography is hard to beat (imo) and so has been used by more websites.

Probably most .fi websites would would confuse/scare the average englishman LOL

The finnish language is pretty mental! Beautiful but mental
