Oh, crap. I meant if the guitar played the same melody as the what was being sang.

/will edit.

I've never even seen a picture of the guitar Maynard [i]plays[/i] nonetheless his rig. :lol:

well this is what i use:
washburn wg-580 with floyd rose (i know adam uses a gibson)
line 6 spider 2 412 head and cab, boss metal zone pedal, boss equalizer, boss flanger, boss ds-1, ibanez demon wah and a digitech rp 300a multi effect. i usually am able to cipher the sound that adam uses, but triad is a bitch to figure out. thanks and hopefully you can help out.

Aha, today you're in luck. I have the RP300A as well. Here's what I do for Jones' tone:

Compressor- Off(This is to accentuate Jones' rawer tones
Amp - Rectified(This amp model is based off of the Mesa Dual Rectifier, which Jones uses. Set the gain to about 60)
Equalizer - Play around with this, but I usually have mine set at 2/10/2 for bass/mid/treble sounds
Noise Gate - On
Mod Effects- I usually have this off For Stinkfist, use flange, and 46&2, use chorus
Delay - It varies from song to song, but it's typically on and off in different parts of most songs. Play around with it until you're happy with the sound.
Reverb - Off
Expression - Wah

That is what I use, and it sounds pretty dam[B][I][/I][/B]n good, if I can say so myself. :-D

thanks man ill give this a try, hopefully i can get the sound right. kudos to Dr. Jake

No problem. One of my favorite things to do is help others with thier musical troubles, so to speak. You have quite a few pedals in your arsenal, man. Is the DS-1 used to generate delay?

There it is Jake.

Oh, freak, it's 15 megs! :eek: It better be good!

Wierd, since it's only 4 minutes* long.

Kage- Yeah, I posted in there. Thanks.

Jake, just to let you know, the Explosions in the sky song that you requested, along with a few others of interest, are up in the FA thread.

I just watched the 'Judith' and 'Schism' videos for the first time....

Schism.....Holy focking schnit, that's awesome.......

Judith...Maynard's such a badass.....and Paz is kinda hot......

Tool's videos are all great. Schism is so weird, but I'd have to say my favorite of theirs is a tie between Prison Sex and Parabol/Parabola.

The Mer De Noms era APC videos are both fantastic. Judith is a lot of fun to watch, the whole band rocking out in shadows, as seen by David Fincher. Everyone looks really cool and into it, and that three-part scream at the end between Maynard, Billy, and Paz is an amazing moment in the song and in the video. And yeah, Paz is pretty hot.

The 3 Libras video is a must see, I have sort of a connection to it. I first saw the video while I was in the middle of a fairly big change (moving out of my town of fifteen years to another school). For some reason, I was watching the video a lot at that time. Then, I didn't see it for a while, and only a week ago I saw it again, and it reminded me of the first time I met a lot of people that are really important to me now, just because of the timing of first seeing the video and arriving in the new town.

Personal connections aside, it's a beautiful video. I'd love to find out who directed it.

I didn't really care for the Weak and Powerless and Outsider videos. Or any of the three from eMOTIVe.

I watched the 3 Libras video as well.

Maynard, during the bed scene:naughty:looked bored, like he does that every Tuesday afternoon at 3:30.

judith vid pwns. Must tool vids bore me.Too bad really.

I wish they did a vid for magdalena and another one similar to judith for the package.

They milk that song live.

She's a babe.

So I asked FollowTheReaper to upload an audio Tool bootleg he has. :-D w00t for me. I'll link you guys after I get through downloading it. It has a freaking amazing group of songs on it. Stinkfist, 46&2, Lateralus, The Grudge, Sober, and Parabola. Yes!

[QUOTE=A_Perfect_Tool]Does anyone else here perfer the [Live]Pu**** from salival to the Ænema version?[/QUOTE]
I love the drum solo in that song, I really liked how they just had Maynard sing the first half of the song.

You're thinking of the song "Counting Bodies Like Sheep to the Rhythm of the War Drums" off of eMOTIVe. It's a "Pet" remix, and that animated video you saw is available on aperfectcircle.com. It's a cool song, one of maybe four that were listenable on that album.

Sounds cool.

One day, I swear, I'll get around to uploading some stuff from the Tool bootleg (not a live concert bootleg) that I bought a while back.

Remedy- Yes, Tabla is freaking wicked. :p He's uploading it through a program like YSI.

BW- That bootleg is mainly a Maynard bootleg, isn't it? :shrug:

Mainly, yeah, but it does have six pre-Opiate/pre-Undertow demos (all rough cuts of songs that would later appear finished on the albums), the Spasm cover, the Calling Dr. Love cover. So some full band stuff. But definitely NOT worth the twenty bucks I blew on it.

I think the only album that was worth my 20 bucks was Ænima. Never again have I felt gratified after purchasing an 20 dollar album. Live and learn, I guess. :shrug:

Twenty? I think I got my copy of Aenima for about fifteen.

Yeah, well, Borders sometimes doesn't give you the best dels. :-/ I did pick up some amazing albums at Best Buy for 21 bucks though. I got Dredg's Leitmotif and Cream's Disraeli Gears together for as much as I got Ænima. In the long run, I'll probably be happier with Ænima, but you can't deny the good fortune of picking up 2 great albums for 11 and 10 bucks a peice.

EDIT: lol Moses loves poop.
