lets hear a clip or video...here is a favorite of mine:

For dirty toanz, I don't think it gets much better than Van Halen's Mean Street. I love the way the open strings of the G chord just thrash the mid range frequencies.

For cleans, I can't really put a finger on it. There are a bunch of clean tones that sound good to me, but none off the top of my head that make me feel the way the Mean Street toan does.
 
When I was 15 the guitar sound on this would make me go crazy. I saw this video in a movie theater before the movie "The Wild Life" and it was the closest thing to seeing a rock concert I had been to at that point.

This would be my pick too. That "G" chord just sounds perfect.

I'm not really into clean tones. :embarrassed:
 
Best clean tone I've ever heard:

I've posted this video too many times already (on GJ), but here it is again:

No one else can make a guitar sound quite like this.

My favorites are more or less unchanged from when we last had this thread, about 6 days ago:

But, for the sake of being a good sport, I'll post these instead:
