In this wide-ranging interview, Alex Lifeson reflects on recreating classic Rush guitar sounds for his current tour and explains how TONEX has made that easier than ever.
After his prized amp collection was captured for the Alex Lifeson Legacy Signature Collection, Lifeson now uses the platform to access sounds from different Rush eras, allowing him to faithfully revisit iconic tones from classic Rush songs throughout the show.
He also discusses his evolution from massive Marshall and Hiwatt rigs to a compact, tour-friendly setup that delivers the character, depth, and responsiveness of his original amplifiers.
If I could make the guitar sound from Tom Sawyer sound like that guitar sound, and Limelight... wouldn't that be kind of cool?
Now, they sound like the greatest amps ever, there's depth in the bottom end. There's real character.
They just respond beautifully. We were both blown away by how amazing it sounded.
