I'm really digging the Mark V. I couldn't be happier with the rhythm. The lead tone I have is nice and it's as smooth as butter. But, I have hardly any output for fast high gainy shred stuff - it feels like I can use it for mainly gainy blues or really old rock (on channel 3.) I don't even have enough output to finger tap anything, as an example. I have had a Boss Metalcore for awhile - Metalzone sounds like a fake POS IMO - and I hooked that up and that helps the output a lot and I can get the output for a shreddy tone. But, distortion on distortion doesn't sound that great and if I play it through channel 1, I don't get to use the amp's distortion . Do I need to get a ts-9 or something? 10,000 dollars in rack gear? What has your lead tone questing been like? Also, my DD-3 sounds like **** on channel 3 >_<.
I'm looking for a John Petrucci, Alexi Laiho, Kirk Hammet, metalish lead tone. Actually, any good lead tone from what I have now would be better. A Santana lead tone would be awesome too.
I know nothing about amplifier equipment and it's so frustrating finding a good tone for everything >_<.
