Hi everyone. Somewhat new to the forum so HOWDYYY. I have tried for months now to get a good tone out of my dual rec and i cant get it at all. Ive done everything ive been told all over forums to get a good tone except retube the **** thing and it just sounds mushy to me. no clarity in the chops like i hear on a lot of clips in this forum. And the leads are to harsh sounding. I dont know. I know this is probally the wrong way to look at it but i played a 6505 and i got instant tone that amazed me. Really cut through bottom end with compressed leads so they werent so harsh sounding. And people told me that the dual rec has everything double that the 6505 has and ive been giving time but its like unless you play classic rock and want to drop the gain back to 10:00 then the dual rec isnt cutting it. Even with the bass dropped to 0 and the cabs are away from walls its so boomy and mushy. The only thing keeping me going with this head is that i feel like with all the rep this head has and basically everyone using them metal, rock, progressive, i feel like it should work. I want it to work. Im into music like bullet for my valentine, dream theater, tool, breaking benjamin just to give you an idea of what im looking for. take care and if you got through this thanx.
