Yes, that's right...I have *finally* gotten a half-decent metal tone from my Carvin legacy. It's not the modern Mesa tone, but it's fat and crunchy. Kind of reminds me of Randy Rhoads for some reason.

Anyway here's the clip, for all you naysayers out there who claim a Legacy can't do this ;)

The really funny thing is I used this guitar...definitely the least "metal" axe I own, aside from my hollow-body.

That's good riffage! Good tone too. Is that with the 6L6s?

Shane,

I tried to send you a PM but I guess it didn't work.

Yep... I'm military. Air Force for 20 years. About to retire.
