Dave's Tone

Post by DMB2718 »

What can I do to get my guitar to sound just like dave's through an acoustic amp, or just normally. Strings? Electronics? Equilizer....Ect.
Thanks for the help

Random movie quote to make you seem hip and "with it": I'm thinking about getting metal legs. It's a risky operation, but it'll be worth it.

to get it to sound exactly the same you would need the exact equipment dave uses..

and a damn expensive equalizer....

my advice...get your own tone....experiment and find something that YOU like...it's a shit load easier to do that then trying to emulate someone else's
