wow......the van halen profiles are incredible. great job Pete......but your excellent performance in tone matching oblige me to ask you about steve Vai tone in bad horsie (alien love secret), the first song of the album........orfind a nice guitar alone excerpt in die to live, same album...........

take care

Let me see what I can do. I think I should put a form on my website for suggestions for tone matching - so far I've been doing stuff I like/can use - for example, that money for nothing profile is going to get used a lot in my cover bands. Ditto for the Alice in Chains, and a lot of the Van Halen stuff. Thanks for the kind words!

Awesome job Pete! I bought the pack and recorded a short clip with bass and drums. I linked your site so hopefully others will give you business.

Hi. Bought these yesterday and loaded them. Are all of the Bass, Treble, Mid etc. supposed to stay at 12:00? Is there any tweaking I need to do?

Some of the profiles are tweaked slightly, leave settings alone to get what I used for the clips and the best match here. I did the sample clips with guitars that were NOT used to profile - I profiled with a Strat with a bridge humbucker, and used a PRS Korina McCarty for the clips. I went out of my way to not use the same guitar I profiled with. I made sure what I used wasn't loaded with the hottest or weakest pickups, or even the darkest or brightest guitar - the McCarty I used was certainly in the middle tonewise.

For an example of what others are getting, check out the clip skyhighrocks put up a few posts earlier.

If you have any issues, feel free to email me at [email protected] and I'll be glad to offer suggestions.

Hi Pete,

which amp did you use for them bones?Bogner? i really like it..do you have other profiles to get that kind os sound? The Bogner commercial pack?

Yup, Bogner... with an EQ match and a little secret sauce. My Ultimate Bogner Ecstasy profiles are in the neighborhood. Glad you dig it!

Hi! What kind of guitar and pickup You use for demos of Second Tone match set ? Guitar directly in Kemper?

I used a PRS McCarty Korina guitar, was NOT the same guitar I used to create the profiles to make sure the tones were attainable by most users. Guitar was direct into kemper, no post effects - everything was from the kemper.

Thanks! Humbucker or P90?

Stock PRS bridge humbucker, medium gain. Pretty much like a duncan '59 or JB.
