Your Favourite Guitar Tone

[Octav]

Lets discuss guitar tones here. Please list out your Favourite Solo tone, rhythm tone, clean tone, and any other wacky tone you like.
Solo Tone: High gain, Mid Scoop, Bit of Delay and compressor
Rhythm Tone: Similar to solo tone MINUS the delay. Delay makes it sound very weird
Clean tone: Full Chorus, Mid scoop, Reverb
Wacky Tone: LOADS of delay + pedal assigned to Volume control gives awesome violin-ish patch (like JP's middle solo in the count of tuscany)

What about everyone else? Your favourite tone(s)?

1.The Voilin tone with heavy bass and echo effects.

2.Thick gain - the classic crunch sound of a Marshall slammed in the front end by a preamp pedal.

Stratocaster plugged into anything.
Strat into a big muff with a slight gain.
Overdriven/edgy/trebly strat for leads.
Very trebly retro tele with slight slapback delay ala early pink floyd
Les paul into a british amp all richards like
And can't forget to mention Strat into a fuzzface into a hard-driven 1959 plexi

Umm....Albert King plays a Flying V into a Clean Blackface Fender (Maybe you're confusing him with Albert Collins, a dedicated Tele player)

The LesPaul Marshall combination for me would be more like Led Zep era Page and the Allman brothers band @ Fillmore east.

and I agree on Mark Knopfler. great combination!

Can anyone teach me how to pull off the sudden bursts of feedback that so many songs have (Example-Prophets of War by DT)? Are they just harmonics with volume swell, or real amplifier-fueled feedback?

Also i seem to have developed a liking for a weird creamy distortion/clean with chorus tone with a peculiar delay configuration that i was experimenting with. The Delay depth is around 12 o clock (i.e. approx 50%), and the feedback is set to maximum. So it creates the effect of the note being played, and it resurfacing around 10 seconds (and many other notes) later. Has an interesting, watery feel to it.
