Awesome person. Down to earth and humble. I wish there were more like George Lynch.

he was a lot different back when..... typical of hot shot guitarists...

George is incredibly knowledgeable about amps and it is something that is missing out of the guitar players of today. In the guitar world today you can find something made somewhere that will give you what you want. What George did was kind of mad scientist his way to the amazing sound that he used in the 80s. Very few people left with the knowledge George has. I'm like a kid again listening to him talk about amps. Great video.

Im glad George is still around hope he stays in good health hes one of a few 80s guitars very knowledgeable and love watching him play, loved Dokken George always had a badass tone and could play anything

George Lynch is one of the major players that made me choose to play guitar. Will always be a favorite

At his peak Lynch is amazing. Easily among the top 10 best metal guitarist of the 1980s.

I had the pleasure of hanging out with George for about an hour and he was incredibly kind. Talked about bands and music we were into, mid to late 90s. Stand up guy!

This guy is a universal treasure to the guitar world. To sit down with George and pick his brain would be priceless.

Met George at the guitar show in Dallas. Nice guy! Tour George...Please.

Best studio recording I ever did was using a '70s Strat into a Music Man HD130..BRILLIANT tone, no overdrive or distortion pedal, it did not NEED that, lots of gain..can't praise it enough..only better amp I've had is my current '78 JMP MkII 50w, THAT amp is big BIG sex..

I agree. Those ‘78 JMP are fantastic. Especially the 50 watters. I had a 100 watter but a buddy has a couple of the 50 watts and they are so good.

@@chrislestermusic I have a '78 JMP 50 watter also.....& it sounds so good as is, I don't even want to change the tubes that are in it.....3 different brand pre-amp tubes & that's how I bought it 13 yrs ago & it still sounds killer!Easily as good as my JVM.

I love how he just casually says " This a Trainwreck I would use this if I was in a blues or classic rock band" Maybe he doesn't know those things are going for $30k plus if you can even find one up for sale.

I agree 🤘!!

I personally met George lynch at Wembley arena who Dokken supported AC/DC in 87 blow up your video tour, plus I met all of AC/DC aswell apart from Phil Rudd. Simon Wright was the stand in drummer at that time.

George is the man. Love his Ty Tabor shout out. But I thought Ty played a Lab Series L5. He does have a very distinctive tone and can play his face off. Kings X is the shit.

Thank you George for sharing the collection. You're so down to earth and honest about sharing info.

George is amazing. Always gets me psyched to play. Got 1 of his signature guitars.👍

i would love the esp camo signature guitar but they are very pricey

Thanks for being so generous with your time & knowledge, George!!

+1 on the ADA rack. It's still in my rack and sees daily action. Its an amazing piece of gear.

Kevin Nelson is the designer of that MusicMan Amps, he still makes them, as well as the Randall amps he designed, RGT and ProTube.

This is a WALL OF POWER !!! Amazing George, you re great

he has the best tone of all time. he keeps saying "sounds like a plexi or a plexi on steroids", so I got a SV20H and an overdrive pedal.

JCM800 Early 80s. With his Lynch Mod Tube Thingy 12ax7. That must crank.

Thank you! I love George Lynch, he’s one of my heroes. He influenced my guitar playing, he’s one of the greats for sure. Gotta love that jack off vibrato he would do in his solos. Basically the last greats of the 70’s going into thev80’s L.A Rock Scene since Eddie Van Halen and Randy Rhoads are now gone. Thanks George! 👍🎸

Warren DeMartini of Ratt does a lot of that sliding vibrato too...

The John Metz amps are very cool, I've plugged into a few.

This is fascinating to watch - there is such a wide variety of amps I have absolutely no interest in playing. Simply not my style. But it's very interesting to view another world. I'd love to hear him articulate just exactly what characteristics each amp has, and why that particular amp drew him in.

I just want to say George L. You have inspired me to want to play since I was a young man an the video of you playing mr scary live with the black Les Paul was sick! Made me smile ear to ear man because I have that guitar too. An I love mine as well. Excellent job ! An I just love the instrumental album keep them coming please!! An don’t make us wait to long for another. 👍🏾

Awesome, great to see you have a Canadian Marshall,, the Traynor.

George came into my place Surf City Amp Room to pick up an old Solid State Acousitic Amp. I did not know who he was or of his bands. He was a really nice guy we talked for some time as he used to come to Huntington Beach as a kid and we shared many memories. He said he was in Dokken I told my sister in law and she was head over heals.

Got all the bases covered, young fans, shite almost your age, rocking the Rick Beano hair these days, great collection, as I whine on the floor missing my 71 & 73 Marshalls., 100 & a 50 watt. Just a lovely collection, kudos.

the great great great Mr.Scary and his killer amps!!!

George is such a sweetheart of a guy……..gotta love gear tours from a gear head..

Thank you YoungGuitar for these gear reviews! They are the best.

My favorite player of all time. Wicked was off the charts but some of the solos in the second LM album are just insane. Cold is the heart solo Go re-listen and thank me later Rock on Folks

Little known fact, both George and Slash more than likely used Marshall #39 from SIR studios.

You are correct.

I am forever inspired by George’s passion for chasing awesome tones with all the gear he has!! He knows a good amp too!! There are no EVH brand amps in his collection for a reason!

?? how do you know it wasnt an EVH under the white cover? this was only a glimpse at 20 or so he wanted to show us. If he doesnt own an EVH its not bc they're not good amps. plus majority is 20+ years old.. too much gain for me personally

Well we know where he got the variac idea from and he has an Eddified Marshall. He’s a huge EVH fan.

George is one of the greatest! Very down to earth and humble man love to see more content like this!

George Lynch has been a big fan since the Dokken era. We design and produce the guitar by ourselves, and we are delighted and impressed by the unique guitar playing method and the sound that the riff is unbearable and grabs the heart. The studio at home is also fully equipped and is a great genius guitarist. George Lynch's Mr.scray's favorite song! Please continue to perform wonderful songs. I'm supporting you. Setagaya.Saburo 🌈🎸🤟

80's badass especially your Without Warning Intro.

Funny. George was a wild man in the 80's but he's a very intelligent guy.

Amazing artist and audiophile ! You can feel the passion and dedication ! As a gearhead I would like to thank both Goerge and Youngguitar for such great upload.

Total Gentleman, with so much pation for what he does, Thanks for sharing

Thanks George you're awesome and very humble!

Man this was a awesome time thanks George 🎸🎛🥁🍻🙂

Love the Soldano and the Herbert Green

I got all the digital stuff and when everyone is using an AxeFX 3 or Line6 Rack unit, we kinda get the same stuff from the same IRs most of the time. Then I got some tube amps and it's easy to sound original with those Mesa, ENGL, or Laney pre's and power amps. I'm glad to see George is still experimenting and using things that have their own soul. Of course, he can afford it. Something a lot of guitarists today don't get to experience when using amp sims and modelers.

I thought Georges best sound was on tooth and nail using old randall amps! Probably modded randall amps! Also In love those Randall RM 100 or 50 with removable pre amp sections...then send them out to salvation and wow they really kick ass then!!!

Bogner Marshall Snorkler, Jerry Cantrell original sound, tone.

I've seen interviews, last few years, where Lynch claims he plugs directly into the same 68 Plexi he used in the 80s, turned way up. No pedals, no other brands. Now I'm looking at this series. Similarly, I've seen Nuno say the same thing, cable into the Plexi he used in the 80s, against a Rig Rundown showing his JCM 2000 with an always-on Rat and stuff his tech has to insert and remove for specific songs. Don't get me wrong; I'm pleased as punch to see Lynch's gear room here. I'm just beyond tired of magazine articles about cork sniffing and gate keeping in the name of these same musicians.

Thank you mister Lynch!

Just came across this. What a nice video and George is a class dude!!!

I knew a lot of players who used ADA MP-1s in the late 80s. They sounded great. They'd use either Boogie or Randall power amps. I also remember the Demeter and Groove Tube preamps of that era. Amazing tones. I dig the Park. A friend had a Park modded by Blaha that sounded incredible. Real Lynch kind of tone.

I still run my ADA MP-1.

cool dude - so down to earth - nice video

So he needs to get his 80's sound back up and running huh, Full Dokken reunion 2022 perhaps? Just reaching for subtext here George!

That'd be interesting, but I doubt that they are all on the same page.

Best thing ive learned in months on youtube.

And then you see, THE WALL of AMPS! Beautiful!

I was just thinking if I could speak to George I'd rave on about a Brownface Deluxe. And then I see his collection and there it is, a 6g3. Perfect collection in my opinion. I wonder if he likes Blackface or Tweed amps as well?

George has the best gear to rock ever dude

If I was playing bars just having fun I'd take my Trainwreck too!! LOL

Thanks for the peak George and Young Guitar.

ADA MP1 is awesome!!

this was awesome !!

Seamless is a great album

Great video! Thanks for sharing! I wonder what amp is under the white cover? He obviously didn’t want to show it or talk about it.

Thanks George, you got pure treasure in those Amps. I have played most of those, and from the guitar 🎸 player side, they each have something cool to offer, or some thing to take your playing in a great direction for a song.

I wish George was my neighbor 🎸🎶😎

Awesome collection

What amp is under the white cover George ??🤔

That clicking sound of the floyd arm sucks big time!

Gotta tighten it up.

Didn't he play Genz Benz for a while? Didn't keep any of it? I had his signature 212 G-flex cab back when. Solid and sounded great. Anyway, nice line up!

The slo is also used by gary moore and Warren haynes.. Also by clapton.. How it could be less sweet than a plexi?

Thank you Lord for GL and all his talents. Long live Mr Scary.

A badass guitar player. And a hell of a guy.

Laney from the master ...WOooo.. Love KINKS X

Thanks George. Very cool

Great series of Scary Gear videos. Where is the Bogner Uberschall?

I use to have a lot of good gear like that now I'm down to a strat and a amp & 2 FX. I went thru a shit load of guitars. But I wouldn't change a thing it was quite a time.

why their is no video about speaker cabinets because 80% is the sound of the speaker cabinet the rest 20% is guitar and amp

1st rule of George Lynch Amp Tour: Never acknowledge the amp under the white dust cover

does anyone know what george used on the Under Lock n Key album? Just killer tone and licks on that

I just read an article published in 2020 that George wants to be hired by JUDAS PRIEST. Ok, how do we make this happen?

Love this guy!!

As the Christians say “Jesus Christ “ What an amp collection! Edit: George mention Ty Tabor!!!!

Damn. To own a Train Wreck! Schweeet!

george is a monster--and holy shit,,,what a collection,,,,must be nice,,,,,keep rockin mr lynch

Man, he is such a cool guy.

Great stuff

awesome!!!

He's just another gear head and Eddie fan like the rest of us.

Great!

Soldano!!

Light up the 68 Marshall Eddizied and the Bogner clone !

Mind blown!👍😀
