As people have mentioned below those interested in Zakk's tone of this era and many might not know and enjoy is his "solo band/work" called "Pride and Glory" - Some of his strongest guitar work outside of "No More Tears" and early Black Label - IMO

Everything sounds fantastic, and spot on! I'm not expecting a response on a several years old video, but there is something I have always wanted to find out, and could never find the answer. When one is doing this kind of guitar tracking, four rhythm tracks for thickness, as well as using a multiple mic setup, where does one pan everything? Between the mics for each track, and then the full takes for each one as well? What you are doing here certainly sounds "right", although I know that there could be a number of ways one could do it.

my god, Zakk's comping was so creative, without leaving any emptiness putting in fills here and there between one riff and one chord. It's what you need when you have only one guitar in the band. Great great great comping. Too bad it stopped as soon as he started with BLS, where he fell into the cheap flat beer drinking metal crap and became a shadow of his former self. Great job with the sounds and the playing!!!

Saw P&G in a small club in 94, Zakk was playing the bullseye LP into a 2203 half stack with a few pedals on the floor. It was one of the hugest guitar sounds I've ever heard. I couldn't believe that tone was coming out of such a simple, almost "budget" rig.
