Neural DSP, Archetype: Holt

I’ve met Gary a few times over the last 8ish years, every single time he’s been nothing but kind and down to earth. I showed him an LTD Eclipse I had painted myself and he said to me “dude, killer!!!!” And has been nothing but a sweetheart. Very blessed to have met him, and so happy for all of his success!

Gary is one of the best guitarist out there. The way he chugs out riffs is so unique.

"Listen to Angus and Malcolm. They teach you everything you need." Best advice EVER!

Yes, it is.

The honesty and just how down to earth Gary is is just astronomical. At times it boggles the mind because he's just like us you know just like you just like I

One of the best guitarists of all time. So talented but genuinely nice down to earth guy. Bonded by Blood is one of the best albums ever released. Love the Holt signature ESPs, Officer Holt, Hell Yeah. Thanks Gary, you Legend👍🤘🤘🤘

Thank you Gary for all your music! Made my childhood the best. Can’t wait to grab this!

i love his tone live, so crushing , very distinctive sound

Gary is a good dude and a monster musician.

That Officer Holt guitar looks so sick.

Chasing killer guitar tones and riffs with the way Gary plays is such a killer combo. I was blown away in the 80’s with the riffs and have been a fan since. Definitely on my top metal gods list.

Classiest and warmest solos in metal. Simply the best.

I wish I had as much experience in the music business and touring as Gary does. I'm 54 and I'm just starting a music career basically. And I've been an Exodus fan since the first album. We are just now getting it going. I guess we'll see how far it goes. But Gary is probably one of my top three favorite guitar players of all time. Malcolm Young is one of the others along with Alex Lifeson.

Gary is in my top 5 guitarists of all time! And I always make a point of saying that he deserves a lot more recognition. We love you, Gary!Cheers from Brazil 🇧🇷

Gary is an absolute legend🤘🏽🤘🏽🔥🔥💕

Was lucky enough to see Gary in Perth WA with Exodus many years ago.. Killer guitarist. Played a huge set and noticed for Gary it's all about the audience being happy. What a fucking legend. 👏 ❤

11:24 Dude, hearing the story behind this guitar makes me love it more! Especially the bullets!

Its releases like this make the monthly plan so worth it! You always have new gear to play with.

I am so happy Gary was the guy who got the call when Slayer needed someone to take Jeff's spot for the last several years of the band. After putting in all of those years makign incredible music wit Exodus, Gary deserved a break and the chance to make some real money. Exodus should be way bigger than they are. Gary deserves some good pay days. Let's hope that Slayer paid him what he deserved...as Lombardo has raised some very real concerns about Slayer's book keeping, payments and management. Let's hope that Holt didn't get ripped off.

Glad Slayer pulled the plug! It was a shame. Jeff gone..Dave screwed hard.. ..and then Gary in .. Paul on the drums.. it wasn't Slayer at all . It was a corporation deal formation. Total BS. How Tom & Kerry & Management did Dave... No respect at all. I wss glad the whole Slayer gimmick was over! Carry Reign in Blood & Hell Awaits in your Heart .. those are true Slayer Albums.

​@jasonsloten3148 thank you. Jeff wasn't replaceable, as close as they always were with exodus, it just shouldn't have happened, even if i think Gary is a great guitarist and probably the best pick they could have made. I feel thankful to have seen the original lineup 3 times... And hell awaits fucking rules all

Gary is an excellent player. He also has the best attitude that there is. I have seen Exodus a few times, never met him. And the Angus/Malcolm comment rules!

It's super cool to see one of my long-time guitar heroes get his very own amp sim package. This man is so deserving of this. Absolutely one of the coolest guys in all of metal. Much love to ya Gary...and hope to be jamming some of your new tunes soon.

The predator sticker on his amp had me rolling 😆

One of the best human beings I've ever met! Gotta love this guy for all eternity!

when I heard the song "plaesures of the flesh" and "brain dead" being played on my local radio around 1988 it was like a revelation. So good riffs... and awesome solos.... in "pleasures" "Faster Than You'll Ever Live to Be " main riff is killer... This is where it all started. There was Slayer and Destruction before, of course, but this was like gold. Gary has one of the best sounds that exist in metal. The solos from the album Pleasueres of the flesh are masterpieces. I listen to a wide spectrum of metal and many genres, from Racer X to Origin, or John Petrucci and Immortal but Exodus started it.

Gary always seems so nice, i didnt knew that Kirk invite him to join Exodus, thats awesome.

He's such a humble human

Gary’s gear collection is crazy

The opening riff to impact is imminent is STILL to this day the heaviest most technically challenging riff ever

My cousin surprised me for my 52nd birthday with a video from the one and only Gary Holt wishing me a Happy Birthday!! my eyes welled up lol and i'm a grown ass man! so surreal to hear your Living Legend, your Idol wishing you that from the GODFATHER of Bay Area Thrash.

Gary Holt is gold.

The tone of Exhibit A is one my favorite tones of all time, its fucking killer !!!!!

I've been privileged to work with a LOT of artists, particularly in the metal genre. And Gary is one of THE nicest and most easy going guys I've ever met.

Cheers Gary you have been my hero as a guitarist for quite some time your riffs and tone have always been crushing and although I have been part of the music industry my self with my own bands and projects that I have usually been the architect of over the decades as I put together most of the music and composition myself I have, as a Rhythm guitarist myself always loved your riffs even though all but one of my own bands/projects released officially or otherwise has nothing to do with thrash but when I just jam on a guitar for fun then Exodus id right up there in terms of things to play, thank you Sir \m/

More from that guy! First interview from him I saw until now and he seems very nice.

I saw him play with Exodus in Tokyo the day this was released. Great show and the fans loved listening to Bay Area Thrash!

No doubt... he's the coolest (chillest, down to earthest) dude of Bay Area metal.. Will Carrol is a very close 2nd..

That "Officer Holt" ESP NEEDS to go on sale for the public, just to demo one would be epic.

I'm so happy to be around and enjoy this era of bands and good musicans like Officer Holt !!! What will people say in 50 years when they look back and everything they have is crap. We're the lucky ones........

Man I love this guy of late… all I knew of him was he replaced Jeff in Slayer… I love his tone and EMG guitars…. I saw a clinic he did and just dig everything he does , very inspiring to me as a player… thanks Gary

What a legend!

In 1992, I bought EMG 81 pickups for my B.C. Rich Warlock guitar just because of the guitar sound on Fabulous Disaster and reading that Gary Holt used those pickups. It sounded awesome going through a Peavey Supreme 160 stack. By the way, that t-shirt is hilarious.

His influences include, Michael Schenker, Uli Jon Roth, Matthias Jabs, all Scorpions guitarists of course.

Gary you rule

He is also one of the best lyric writers in metal period.He may be the best his lyrics are clever and really stays on point with what ever topic the song is about and the way incorporates his lyrics makes his dark but mostly real events really interesting and it's always fun when Exodus releases a new album because you get your moneys worth the complete package incredible colorful dark violent but the artwork always is on point to stay On The albums theme and the lyrics are so creative yeah and folks who don't understand this music straight and blunt hard harsh realities Gary's lyrics ain't pretty but damn they are so clever that reading along with the thick booklet that only physical formats give the pleasure of it's always a exciting day when Exodus releases a new creation upping us metal fuckin fanatics.They ain't never released a bad album yes I even loved impact and force of habit is a underrated masterpiece It's a always like an extra holiday like Christmas when my FAVORITE band of all time release a new album
