Amp Settings: Eric Johnson (with Tubescreamer Settings)

Eric Johnson

Eric Johnson might be a lesser known version of Joe Satriani and Steve Vai, but he's still one of the best, and anyone with the DVD of him at G3 knows that to be certain.

Johnson has used a Tube Screamer distortion or Fuzz pedal periodically and interchangeably, thus, it's the best way to replicate his sound in terms of distortion. Here's how you can get the closest to it.

Tubescreamer or Fuzz Machine Settings

For this example we'll use the "Fuzz Machine" from GarageBand which has all the settings we'll need to identify and utilize.
