By 1998, Lynch finished his commitment with Dokken and set out to work with the Lynch Mob. This resulted in Smoke This; an album that featured the culmination of his playing styles, but with a new approach. The 1999 tour that followed bought Georges playing to a new audience and resulted in a renewed interest in the band and George Lynchs influence. With new confidence, George began working with former Dokken bandmate Jeff Pilson on what was to become a lengthy album titled Wicked Underground, which was completed under the name LP (Lynch / Pilson) and delivered to stores in April 2003.
Also in 2003, Lynch began reworking the sound of earlier Lynch Mob and Dokken material. To complete this task, George re-assembled Mob band members Robert Mason and Anthony Esposito along with Michael Frowein on drums. Together, they reinvented the spirit and fire of early Lynch compositions onto an album titled Revolution which was also released in 2003. The guitar work on both Wicked Underground and Revolution demonstrated Lynchs consistency with his signature sound while balancing a more experimental side.
In 2012 George released 3 successful albums via RatPak Records, Legacy an all instrumental EP, Lynch Mob Sound Mountain Sessions and T&N Slave To The Empire that featured original Dokken members Jeff Pilson and Mick Brown along with a host of other guest singers including Sebastian Bach, Tim Ripper Owens, dUg Pinnick and Warrant singer Robert Mason) & the album features remakes of 5 classic Dokken songs and 7 new original songs. In 2014 George released Lynch Mob Unplugged Live From Sugar Hill Studios (Rat Pak Records) an all-acoustic performance of their classic hits. In 2013 George formed KXM a super-group trio that featured Kings X front man dUg Pinnick and Korn drummer Ray Luzier. Their debut album released in March on Rat Pak Records and landed #31 on the Billboard top 200. Later that year in December, George hit #6 on the Billboard Hard Rock Albums chart with the critically acclaimed Lynch Mob Sun Red Sun (also on Rat Pak Records) that featured Oni Logan, Robbie Crane and Scot Coogan. The most notable is his endorsement with ESP Guitars. ESP has held George as their highest profiled endorser for close to 20 years. Electric guitar pickup guru Seymour Duncan has also honored George with his own signature series pickup called the Screamin Demon. Now a highly regarded standard in the guitar world, the Screamin Demon reigns as one of Seymour Duncans most popular items to date. George also conceived the design for a triple amp selector switching system called the Tripler which is manufactured by Morley. American Recording Technology manufactures and distributes the George Lynch Signature guitar, patch and speaker cables. In 2005, Randall Amplifiers revealed a new George Lynch modular amp called the Lynch Box. Also of note, George Lynch and Robert Keeley have developed the Lynch Time Machine, a unique and powerful effect unit that is gaining a lot of interest and momentum within the guitar industry. The past few years, 2015-2018 have seen some of George Lynchs most prolific recording projects, including KXM with DuG Pinnick of Kings X and Ray Luzier of Korn, Shadow Nation, an incredible film journey into the history and plight of Native American life, Lynch Mob, Ultraphonix with Corey Glover of Living Colour, drummer Chris Moore and bassist Pancho Tomaselli of War. When George is not recording, writing or touring, hes creating incredible collectors art guitars under his Mr. Scary Guitars brand.
