Members honeyiscool Posted December 1, 2012 Members Share Posted December 1, 2012 How stereotypically Asian of me!Anyway, I learned this song today and it's been sort of a blast. My first attempt at a fast pentatonic solo, I rushed it but I'll get better at it over time. My new Vox Night Train is so much fun. Far from my usual thing, though, the amp has taken me in a completely different direction. That is, the distortion on it is so good that I'm just cranking the gain all day. Best $249 amp ever! I forgot how {censored}ing good that HK Strat (Duncan Custom) sounds for hard rock. And with that G12M Greenback, that little cab has some great depth and punch.PLLEEEASSSSEEEE TRUST MEEEEE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members soundcreation Posted December 1, 2012 Members Share Posted December 1, 2012 As I said in that other thread you had, I think the night train is a fantastic little amp. The distortion is smooth and round. So how do you think your old AC15's distortion compared to it, now that you've played it? Not even close right?clip sounds great!

Members MephitBlue Posted December 1, 2012 Members Share Posted December 1, 2012 That amp and cab setup sounds great. Plus the Hello Kitty guitar seems like the perfect guitar for some J-pop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For pure distortion, I think Night Train slays AC15 easily. I mean, I'm using the Bright channel in this video, and the Thick channel is way smoother with more sustain, although I prefer the Bright channel for gain because it has more presence. AC15C1 couldn't do anything in that more modern sound. That said, AC15C1 was probably a bit chimier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members xrleroyx Posted December 1, 2012 Members Share Posted December 1, 2012 I had a night train for awhile. It had a fantastic distortion. Wish it had channel switching though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never really enjoy channel switching, the change in volume and tone always bugs me. I think I'm fine with the Night Train system, where volume knobs and boosts can cause a wide range of dynamic changes while still keeping the same character of tone. This amp has a lot of treble with the gain cranked and the guitar volume quite low, which is something that Voxes seem to do better than others. It seems like other amps clean up with the volume knob, too, but Voxes excel at giving me treble and bite with the clean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
