Was messing around with my Roadster this am, before work, playing with tunes and tones.
Lately, I have found channel 2 in Brit mode to be pretty fun, and with marked promise, esp with a maxon 808 out front. (808 with OD at 0 and Balance at about 1:30....pretty much how I use the 808 on all channels when I need that bump 'to 11')
Well, on a whim, I went from Channel 3 on Vintage to 2 on Brit and found after being on 3, I wanted a bit more 'grunt and dirt'.
So, I hit the 808.... better...but not quite there.
So... I turned up the OD knob to about 10:00........
Holy Cow......Grunt, Dirt, Grit.....it had it all.
All in all a very fun and cool AC/DC, Zeppelin-like old school ROCK sound that sounded great with my Custom 24 and the HFS pu.
My Settings:
Spongy
50W
Recto
Channel 2--Brit
Presence 930
Bass 1130
Mids Max
Treb 1100
Gain 230-300
Maxon 808
OD at about 1000
Balance at 130 (basically pointed at the upper right corner of the pedal)
Tone at 1200.
So give it a shot, tweak it a bit, and give me (us) your feedback.
I am interested in what you all think.
