I got the october GuitarOne issue recently and it had "for the love of god" in the tabs. So I tried playing it and it sounded nothing like the recording because my tone was too much on the high end. My guitar has 2 humbuckers, and I found a good way to make the warm, muted kind of tone on the song (and a lot of other vai songs). Switch to the neck pickup, roll of the tone knob completely, and it should sound a lot like his tone (at least on my guitar it does.) Im sure a lot of you have already discovered this .
