I'd guess a lot of this tone is coming from the semi-hollow but what would people suggest to reproduce the od sound of the main guitar here:

Um. Well, I think he uses a Tubescreamer into an AC30 AND a Twin Reverb? And sounds like some reverb to me. I dunno, doesn't sound like anything too crazy to me. Definitely a humbucker tone, though.

Oh yeah, and the droning drop D helps.

I read somewhere that Johnny uses a boss od for boost, thats probably what he's using on those clips.

Well, how about a pedal that will make a Jaguar through a bedroom-volume amp sound like a Starcaster through an SD-1 into a Twin Reverb?
Is that too much to ask? :p

Also how do you get that "CH CH" sound on creep?

Around 9 or 10 years ago I was close enough to the stage to see the Shredmaster stomped on for that sound. :)

Although, I have no idea if that is what was used for the actual recording.

I think it's just a Boss Super OD. He used that, a Turbo Rat (occasionally), and a Shredmaster back on that tour for the dirt.
