How to make variou favorite guitar tones yourself

Electric wizard - Boss FZ-2

Sleep - Rat into a Matamp GT120

As a strictly amateur player, the Zoom Multistomp MS-50g has my tone and modulation explorations pretty much covered for the forseeable. With its 172 available effects I'm able to assemble a huge spectrum of tones from clean to filthy - it's super versatile! The Multistomps have a well established community of tone builders sharing their own takes on iconic guitar tones as well as more out there stuff; some fine LoFi effect patches for example.

Some of my own patches cover: - White Rabbit, She Sells Sanctuary, Hound Dog Taylor, RL Burnside, Chuck Berry, The Cramps, ZZTop, Mudhoney...

It's a tidy little device and while a few of its effects might be a bit hit and miss there are several that individually could be considered worth the (£$€100) price of the pedal by themselves! The 63 Spring Reverb, and Zoom Noise Reduction modules immediately come to mind, even its acoustic simulator is presentable.

A variety of high power amps there, mainly 60s and 70s designs like the aforementioned matamp or like recent qotsa you're looking at ampeg vt40s, boutique jcm800 circuits or vox ac30s in the case of van leeuwen all mixed with oddball little solid state amps at times... plenty of marshall superlead tones on some of those cuts... some fuzz pedals and wooly distortions driving the amps. An ampeg vt40 or v2 is a good starting point due to its unique midrange control, versatile bright and deep switched and generally valley vibe. I dont think anyone has ever regretted purchasing a single channel 800 either. Neil young on the other hand is an itty bitty tweed deluxe that if course is an oddball unit, not a schematically correct 5e3... while I believe the other guitarist is a vox ac50 guy... this can go on and on.

Or get a helix, kemper or axe fx. There was a time when you could get a lot of these amps for reasonable prices when channel switching was all the rage and rack systems were still popular in some circles but those days are through. As much as I prefer a raging tube amp the modeling route may be the most economical way to go and if you spend for the high end stuff it sounds really close now... of course it will never turn you a profit when you decide to sell. It's pretty much only valuable until the next generation device comes out.
