Lynch is the metal Jeff Beck. He keeps getting deeper in the zone, killer tone and greasy phrasing. Legend

I've teched for GL here in Atlanta Georgia. His 68 plexi sounds incredible. (Svetlana el34 wing C power tubes) i believe Steve Vai gave this head to GL) He didn't use a variac here. The amp was pretty much dimed. He used the plexi with a ts808 pedal with a 412 cab as a dry and had a stereo power amp with effects on the other 412 cab. Used 4 mics! LOUD AS HELL!

I bought Back for the Attack on cassette tape the day it came out. I had just bought tickets to see Dokken at Monsters of Rock in Tampa (with Metallica, Scorpions and Van Halen!) the same week and was super pumped up to hear their new album. I listened and was kinda unimpressed... until I got to Mr. Scary. I was immediately dazed and confused. There were sounds I heard that defied explanation. Screaming dive bombs and sweeping arpeggios that I didn't think were possible. I was blown away. The only other songs I can think of that have that kind "guitar to the face" explosive punch are Eruption and Painkiller.

Last I saw George live a few years back at a small club down the street, he carried his Plexi head in himself. That was plugged into a single Marshall 4x12. He had a Variac and a very small pedal board with mostly Boss stuff and a Phase 90. He sounded like George Lynch.

Buck Dharma is simply superb, and I think much under-appreciated. I saw BOC when they were opening for Alice Cooper in the early 70's and was just mesmerized by Roeser's licks. Thanks to whoever asked the question. Dredges up very fond memory.

I had the same experience watching Lynch. Saw him about 10 years ago and he was on fire. Had a small pedalboard and I believe he split off to a Park head and a Trainwreck head into two EVH 4x12s. Stood front row in front of those cabs and it ripped my face off. One of the best guitar sounds I've heard. Total religious experience!

Oh man. I saw BOC at the age of 15 on like 1976. They had lasers for the first show I'd ever seen with the lasers and man they shot those lasers everywhere. I heard later the government made them quit using them so much. When I saw them the singer had a laser on a wrist band and shot a disco light with it and it went everywhere. It was unbelievable. The song " last days of May" had one of the best guitar solos ever. I saw Buck Dharma with a bunch of other guys in my hometown with a local guy from down the road and he was playing this weird custom white guitar that sperm on the headstock. I swear ! 😂. He can play good. too! ❤ That was on the late 80s or early 90s. ❤ Be well sir and have a great week my friend ! ❤

I loved the bits about life in Australia, I Iived in Exmouth, W.A. for a year in the early 1990's and hearing you talk about life there brings back lots of good memories about my happy times there. I had the privilege of seeing George Lynch with Dokken in the 1980's a couple of times, I also got to see George do a clinic/Q&A at my local guitar shop. All three times his rig was very simple; his guitar into a couple of pedals and then into the amp. He's one of those guys who started out with just a little bit gear and has just stuck with that. It's his creativity and love of the guitar that makes him the player he is and I think that's why he is so unique. I'm also pleased that you mentioned B.O.C. I recently have gone back and started listening to them again, they really are a great band!

2:50 Proof that the pickups, strings, pick, amp, & guitarist matter more than the “tone wood”. Outside acoustic or semi-hollow guitars I don’t know where anyone gets the idea that tone is influenced by the wood.
