LMFAO
Strange to hear the voice!
Chris was kind enough to let me spend all afternoon dialing in the perfect insect repellent tone. ;D
See what I mean!!!! Only Howie could find a way to make a Boogie sound razor thin like that!! HAHAHAHAHA
Thanks boys. I actually showed this to my class today. They initially started to rock out and then, I kid you not, one of the kids said, "Why does his guitar sound like that?" Priceless!
careful, careful attention to detail, and a keen ear!
We got it because we tried just for you. LOL

Joey is jealous. the violins are weeping.
Thanks Paul. I know I missed one critical aspect of the Dahlia tone. We didn't turn it up loud enough to clip every mic/pre/ processor etc in the chain. Other than that, we dialed in some razor. ;) It was VERY hard to get that perfect spot because one hair on the dial and it sounded almost listenable. Certainly not what Matt was after!
It took two of us to dial in the FB RazorTone that well...I turned the bass and mids all he way down, the treble and presence all the way up, but still it didn't sound THAT bad. But we found if be BARELY nudged the master to the point it just started to nick the volume bump (somewhere barely above whisper) and THAT was the tone. If Chris turned it one hair higher, it came on the tubes and sounded thin but real. You hear during the demo, where we actually started above it and he barely nudged it back down to the unsweet spot. ;)
Other than that, I think you want one of these! Pretty dang cool!!!
Whoa fuck that. Some nice chops but I thought I had a mosquito in my ear....truly dreadful ;D
Nice lead playing Cpt. Shit For Tone but what about the brutz? ;) :P
And nevermind the mApZ, what kind of axe wazzat? :)
Since this was done just for Matt, I'd like to apologize for not tapping. :D
Axe was Ibanez RG Premium.
Thought so, couldn't be sure, thanks. Nice looking guitar regardless...won't hold it responsible for the toanz! ;)

Nope, that's all on me baby! (And a little help from Chris)
Disclaimer for Craig: No Metal Zones were harmed in the filming of this movie. Only real live tubes and careful EQing. All done live. No post recording Dahlia-ing.
The guitar was really nice. I'm not a big fan of the wide D shaped necks though. But that's just a preference. I could own that guitar and would even turn the mids back up.
