F-50 settings help

[Mystic-Creations]

Hey all, new to the forum, great to see such a cool Mesa Community.
I just bought an F-50 head and 2X12 vertical Recto Cab. I am very pleased with this as it is my first tube amp. I have only ever owned 15 watt digital amps mods. and a vox ad30.

So needless to say the tube sound and Mesa experience is very new to me. It seems that my ears are just not used to it.

I was wondering if anyone could give me some settings to try out, with contour and without.
As far as what tone's I really like.....John Petrucci's early years and 6 degrees tone, Satriani-ish tones, Morse, ect.

I would really appreciate a couple of nice starting points to do some tweaking from.
Thanks so much!

Great Man, thank you. That's quite a thread concerning the F-50. I think I've been able to dial in a tone I seem to like. Also added a little delay to help with getting a fuller sound.
I might need an eq, but too soon to say....gotta experiment more.
Anyone elses input would be greatly appreciated.

Congrats on the amp! I had the same predicament as you early this summer. Going from a Line 6 PODxt setup to the real deal.

Your ears will adjust. Tons of info in that HC thread. Hal9000 and DannTheMann have limitless knowledge/tips with this excellent amp.
