Enter the Alien Tone

Steve Vai’s tone is one of the most distinctive and elusive sounds in guitar. Liquid, expressive, otherworldly — somehow both pristine and alive. It is also one of the hardest to replicate, because he uses an amp, the Carvin Legacy, which has a pretty unique sound. 12 presets built to capture all of it: starting with feel, with the musicality of someone who has lived with this music for decades, and confirmed against the original recordings with the same advanced spectral analysis used across the entire Guitar Heroes series.
Note that I also made the stock “Vai GoT FX” preset, using Steve Vai Gift of Tones blocks ; the amp and cab settings were mine, based on my Synergy Vai preamp !
