MXR Distortion MKIII Buy Now: https://goo.gl/sQRXcD

Rage Against The Machine, "Killing In The Name Of" guitar lesson. We're using an MXR Distortion III for this full bodied riff. In live performances, you can see Tom Morello staying with the neck pickup of his Telecaster, so we chose a distortion that remains defined in this configuration. Also, the Distortion III has an uncompressed distortion and its tone control preserves the low end at higher settings, which is ideal for a round, clear tone. Killing In The Name Of is one of many RATM riffs tuned to Drop D and although straight forward, the song's multiple time changes can be challenging. Enjoy your daily guitar lesson.
