Foolin'

"Foolin'" is a 1983 single by English heavy metal band Def Leppard, taken from their landmark album Pyromania. The track blends melodic hard rock with polished production, showcasing the band's signature layered guitar work and dynamic song structure. For electric guitar players, it offers a solid study in clean verse tones, driving riff construction, and the kind of arena-ready lead playing that defined early 1980s rock.

  • "Foolin'" reached #9 on the Mainstream Rock chart and #28 on the US Billboard Hot 100 when released as a single.
  • The song comes from Pyromania, a diamond-certified album, meaning it has sold over ten million copies in the US.
  • At just over four and a half minutes long, the track gives guitarists plenty of space to explore both rhythm and lead passages.

Marshall JCM800

The definitive rock amp of the 1980s. The JCM800's single-channel, all-tube design produces a natural, harmonically rich overdrive at high volumes. Every hard rock and metal guitar sound from that era ran through one of these.

Marshall Plexi (1959 Super Lead)

The amp that invented Rock. The original Marshall 100-watt Plexi's cranked power tubes deliver a dynamic, touch-sensitive breakup that no modern amp has fully replicated. Hendrix, Clapton and Page all recorded through one.
