Roadster blues settings

[lenny]

I am a new owner of a roadster head with a 2x12 rectifier cab. I was wondering if any board members have a good recipe for a blues tone, (SRV, Robben Ford, etc…) what channel and settings so much to select I am getting a bit stalled. Any help would be much appreciated

i like channel 2 fat, recto tubes, 50 watts, master, treble and bass @12, mids @1, presence @11 with my OCD in front cranking the volume, tiny bit of gain and tone at 12

i like using those settings with the coil tapped on my PRS Mccarty inbetween the neck and bridge

Here is my recipe for single coils- can absolutely nail SRV tone:

Tweed (100w/Tube Rectified)- gain 9-11/treble 11/Mid 12/ Bass 10/Pres. 10

For Carlton and Ford type tone, I would lean toward Jdurso ch2 Fat
I also employ a tone press and a OD808 for that boost over the cliff.
Channel 3 raw has a bunch of blue shade as well just waiting to be uncovered......

This is one of the greatest assets of the Roadster IMHO- very versatile.

Let me know if this helps get you close to what you are looking for-
