De-loused and frances the mute. it's not overpowering in terms of 'tone'. but it does what needs to be done.

I guess you do need to crank it up to notice, though..

I was only listening to Audioslave's first album earlier and thinking how underrated they were. But each to their own.
Tim has a great tone on that album.

Also must reiterate the guy from Cog, sounds b0llocks brilliant. Listening to it now.

+1 on Karnivool!

Dan Briggs from Between the Buried and Me has the most amazing tone and he does awesome melody work round two very busy guitarists.

I absolutely love Juan Alderete's tone, especially the fretless stuff on Frances the Mute.

[Bankai]

Might seem a bit wierd but I love the sound coming from Sharlee D'Angelo (Arch Enemy).

Brian Gibson from Lightning Bolt.

Truckfighters - good call. Rob Wright [NoMeansNo / Hanson Brothers] & Ged - both Canadian too.

John off Breaking Yesterday has on awesome tone - Spector / DHA / HartkeFaced. Great player too.
