hi

i saw his show with billy Idol and it was truly amazing

- amazing guitar solo
-fast solo
-warm sounds
-shimmer
-reverb
-synths
-strange sounds with Source Audio
-les paul with leds
-classical with a Godin guitar
- harmonics too but less than Satch
-perfect delay with his signature model (red Knaggs?)
look at that

when we and i look for a pedal and i see this man
he is so professional with his racks, effects
very complicated rig

you know, professionals are in another world

Saw Steve in Oz a few months ago, one of the best guitarists I've ever heard. He's got it all.

I saw him recently with Billy at Download. No doubt he's still a great talent. He was an endorsee for Fractal AxeFX and I wouldn't be surprised if that was what he was using at Download. His playing was immaculate, though I wasn't a fan of his tone. It did sound like a lot of expensive modellers and FX.

i don't like very much strange digital effects like Hot Hand ring'(source audio)

but interesting things are

- Godin classical nylon guitar with roland gr : but we must learn the technique with the fingers: like Jeff beck does
it sounds so bright, so good

- les paul custom with his pickups (maybe)

-whammy dt too

- custom audio amplifiers +Friedman amps : his sound was warm and hot

-Suhr custom model with floyd rose

all is possible at home with a good pedal for reverb :)

rockers always on the run ! no age !!
