As far as I know, Tobias and Richard used a mesa-boogie.. Also, I don't think Robin uses the same set as Slash at all.

The legendary guitarist said that he does have some contact with Guns n' Roses singer Axl Rose, however.

you can't say whats fucked up unless you know what gear he's got, because to me your settings look fucked up.

Gain- 8
Bass- 7
Mid- 7
Treble- 4.5
Presence- 8

is what i use with my set up when playing scom and it sounds fine, not perfect but thats because the guitarists play a big part in the tone aswell as the gear.

well i'm using a line6 spiderII but it models a 1968 Marshall Plexi 100W amp so that helps hihi

anyway it's veered a bit off topic here, are they pretty much gonna be the same settings for Better say? maybe pump up the bass and gain a bit and drop the treb? or does someone have some suggestions for the new bands settings peace

well id say get a blues driver for distortion, use a modern marshall setting on your spider (jcm 2000 TSL 100) and for the autowah a DiscomBOBulator, a maxon chorus when needed and a mysterious device i cant ID from pictures
