I do this for practice before breakfast....
LOL! Love me some Michael Harris! He was from the Dayton, Ohio area IIRC, and I used to see him and David T, Chastain semi-often when I was in college at the University of Cincinnati. His solo cds as well as work with Chastain and Thought Chamber are all worth checking out.
Some Iced Earth fans here?
This link isn't working for some reason, so I thought I'd re-add it here.
Sorry, man. I went through all 40k I have and nothing matches that, or really even comes close. Was it a free profile posted to the forums or is it purchased? I know M Britt used that specific cab on many of his profiles, but it doesn't appear to be any of the free ones.
Thanks, Gerald!
Thanks, Sollazzon!
Thank you!!!
Thanks!
"I like the intro for 'Sanitarium.'
"If you listen carefully, you put headphones on, we actually do the guitars in the beginning in mono - it's actually recorded like that.
"And then when the drums come in I just flick the switch and it goes into stereo."
Pretty sure it was the JC-120 on this. Also, I believe one side was straight clean and the other side had a tremolo effect. If you can snag the Guitar Hero (or maybe it was Rock Band?) multitracks, you can get a better feel for what's going on in the double-tracked clean intro.
HTH!
Thanks, Mick!
Wow! Where has this tune been all my life?!??! I pretty much only know the hits from Toto, but this totally gives me a Tribal Tech sort of vibe. LOVE IT!

Display MoreYup. I was recommending EMGs from the late '80s onwards. Put 'em in my P-bass and first custom super-strat. Have 'em in my Luke. Love 'em. Just hadn't considered replacing the Suhrs in the Modern Satin 'cause John knows what he's doing.
The only mistake I ever made with EMGs is to put 89s in that super-strat. The mahogany body, combined with the "jazzy" 89s meant that whilst it sounded great for cleans, it quickly got muddy for anything higher-gain. Lesson learned. I determined from this experience that:
89 = warmer, duller, better-suited to jazz
85 = middle ground
81 = brighter, better-suited to all kinds of rock and metal
Thanks for sharing that "making" clip, man. Your Great Escape's a great track and it was cool to see it in-progress.
Small, pertinent regret:
An old buddy of mine supported Kip and his band here in Melbourne early this year. Turns out he took Kip all over the state and town to see the sights and have a good time for several days. I only found out a few months later! Boy, was I spewen, 'cause whilst I knew the gig was coming up and didn't go, I didn't realise Justin would be hosting Kip for a while or I'd have invited them both over. Talk about a near miss! Uugghh...
Anyway, the SL clip you posted reminded me of why I loved Toto in the first place. It was all down to that first hit they had that I heard as a kid and was immediately-sold on the band. Here's Steve and Dave Paich talkin' about how it developed:
If you haven't got a chance, do yourself a favor and check out a guitar loaded with Fishman Fluence pickups. They are a new way of thinking about an "active pickup". They have 2-3 different tonal voice offerings per pickup, typically one of which is a more traditional EMG-81 type voicing... particularly on the Fluence Modern Humbuckers. I personally have the Tosin Abasi Signature Set in my customized 7-string and LOVE them. I hope/plan to put a set of Open Core Classic Zebras in my ESP LP Knockoff once things get a little more liquid, cash-wise.

LOL Jinx yet again, brother.
balazs It's interesting to me that Reb put EMGs into his Modern Satin. I like the stock (Suhr) pickups but find the bridge humbucker sounds a bit too-woody and "constricted". Maybe EMGs are the answer to this. Hmm...
Thanks for posting Reb. Loved his melodic, "middle-of-the-road" cock-rock playing since I discovered Winger back in the '90s. He had a way of complimenting Kip's tracks perfectly IMHO.
Yep! Love me some Reb. I've been playing the shit out of the Winger Anthologies CD which has oodles of demo versions of the first 3 Winger records as well as tracks that didn't make the cut. Pretty cool to see the evolution of some of these tracks vs. what they started out to be. And I'm STILL chasing Reb's tone from those first 3 CD's!
Jeff
Absolutely LOVED Carl-era Vicious Rumors... and Vinnie Moore is one of my all-time faves.. especially the first 2 solo albums. And I too have spun the crap out of my self-titled Tribal Tech and the Shawn Lane cd. I actually have the original pressing one, not the one where (I believe) they replaced all the programmed drums with a real drummer in some sort of re-issue.
So sorry to hear that Jeff. I sincerely hope things get back on track for you quickly.
Much appreciated, Gary. #positivevibesforall
Lost my job due to COVID and the deplorable state of the oil and gas industry back in May, brother. Rest assured, once things get more financially stable, I will take the plunge. 
Jeff
can’t we all just get along
"Nope" - COVID-19
Looking forward to using the wahs when I finally break down and get an expression pedal.
Thank you, Mick!
🤣🤣🤣 Love the Gallo reference SliderJeff !
I'm clearly showing my age with that reference. Plus I have NO idea if that even translates for our non-USA based friends, as I imagine the idea of "boxed wine" is likely abhorrent to most of them.
