David Grissom. Current tone or Joe Ely era?

[6strang]

I think that David owns his tone no matter what he plays through. I voted for the Ely “era live” tone as the Live at Liberty Lunch is flat out amazing. That being said, my Marshall addiction has been fed by that tone, the “Whatever We Wanted” Mellencamp album and Chris Kinght’s debut album.

In all fairness, I do own a DG30 and it is pretty special. More Voxy midrange punch than Marshall kerrang.

David is a musician that I look up to in many ways. He is constantly striving for optimal tone and I love that he pushes himself to stretch his limits live. Can’t say enough good about him.

I have a bootleg somewhere
Sounds fantastic

Oh I don't think anyone but him would be dissatisfied with the tone.

Was it loud? I'm curious how he sets his volume in a bar.

old thread, but i've been on a DG kick lately too and found this clinic video. he always sounds badass, regardless of what he's using.



love this too
