I like the lead tones I have dialed in but I would like to try some others.
I'm looking for something that's not to sharp. I don't know if I can get it but I would really like
a dark, scary, moody bitch, QUOTSA tone. You know the one I'm talking about

Like I said, I get great tones out of my rig I'm just wondering how some other people are using
it.
Got some badass dail in? Post it. Is it a secret? Post it anyway.

btw; I've been able to cover alot of Faith No More ground in channel 3

Look, you don't need to resort to vulgarities to ask a simple question like that. Firstly, the mods will boot you before you have the chance to have your question answered. Secondly, try to remember...you're the one doing the asking. Start insulting people and, well...let's just say they might be less inclined to want to help you out with your question. You might want to try being friendly to people you are wanting something from for free. Just practical advice.
 
I'm glad you focused on the meat of my thread and not the dialect. :lol:
I sincerely apologize if I offended anyone with my crude and distasteful sense of humor. :twisted:
I guess I assumed this was a forum for adults. I didn't know there were so many 10 year olds with Roadsters. :wink:
I have edited my original post. I will save my silly comments for HC.

Seriously though. C'mon dude :mrgreen:

HEY! I resemble that remark!... I don't own a Roadster though, it was too inferior. :wink:

On my RoadKing II I like my lead tones on channel 4 with vintage goodness. Has a darker/smoother tone.

I use 2x6L6 for this (50 watt)
Output: 12:00

Master: 12:00
Pres: 12:00(dark) 3:00(some bite)
Bass: 11:00
Mid: 2:00
Treble: 1:00
Gain: 2:00

OD up front adds more sustain. EQ in the loop with a poke in the upper mids increases definition. Some delay in the loop and a touch of reverb adds the "Moody bitch" to the sound.
