Of course a Jazz Special with Rotosounds, yellow Dunlop tortex picks and a GK 700rb-ii > GK 410RBH doesn't hurt. And honestly, i rarely use chorus.
#2 is Brian Marshall of Creed. Wicked punchy and articulate, yet really 'bassy' and resonant- and not muddy. Trying REALLY hard to get that tone and make it cut like Brian does. I think I need a Sadowsky into a Ashdown though

That may be the best tone I've heard in a song. It's incredible. |

Even though I think he's a pretty despicable person, Nick Oliveri has a pretty awesome sound too. |

"I am a Camera" is just another rendition of "Into the Lens" performed by The Buggles, I think. But it's not on Drama, it's not performed by Yes, and I doubt the dude knew about it.
And yeah, that's a pretty beastly tone  I'm a huge Squire fan.
