I've come so close to the sound I want with this amp that I feel very fortunate. But every time I try to get just that much closer, I end up pushing myself that much further. I must over-do my "corrections"...
ANYWAY-
I'm trying to achieve a distortion that is punchy, clear, and throaty. I do not like super saturated tones. I'm actually aiming to use as little gain as necessary to achieve this sound.
I was wondering if there are any tips, tricks, or techniques mark series users utilize to achieve ultimate clarity without leading to shrillness or loss of balls.
One thing I've recently started doing is running my guitar's volume on 3-6 to get more definition and attack. I lose the extra hair by doing this, but I also lose some of the punch running on 8-10 gives me...
The head is fully loaded - I am running in simul-class with 2 6L6s and 2 EL34s. The head is running through oversized recto 4x12. The guitar is a Les Paul.
Here are the rehearsal settings I used today:
Vol 1: 7 pulled
Treb: 7 pulled
Bass: 2
Mid: 5
Mast1: 3 pulled
Ld.Dr: 5
Ld.Mast: 4 pulled
Presence: 3
GraphicEQ: soft V/disengaged
Anything will help guys. Thanks a lot!
