This thread is a follow-up to this thread, so if you missed that one, your expectations would likely be a bit off, given the breutuhl bent of the forum.

Members paul88lx Posted November 25, 2012 Members Share Posted November 25, 2012 Ok, I liked the mystery boost best. The riffing at the end of that clip is what sold me. I'd say the Fireball next and the Rising Sun last. They all sound similar to me, but the mystery boost seemed to have the most character. All three clips seem bass heavy. Maybe knock that back a bit and things will get crunchier. Your guitar is pretty beefy sounding on it's own. So the amp may not need to help it too much. Of course that bottom end could be my stereo setup. Or that I love a bright signal.Is this the NMV Marshall? What's the volume at? Just curious because I have been messing with my JCM on my days off. Trying to capture it as clean as I can get it to sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just curious because I have been messing with my JCM on my days off. Trying to capture it as clean as I can get it to sound. Thanks, Paul! Much appreesh the listen & comments! Surprisingly, this is my Koch Studiotone. I haven't had a chance to make a thread about it yet, but it looks like I'm going to have to sell the Marshall, as well as my Speed Twin (need monies for Baby Draelyc #2, due in December). So I made a couple clips to see how close I could get to the Marshall tone with the Studiotone. The bassiness comes, I suspect, both from the amp's bass being dialed too high and from the mic placement. With the Koch, I've had to work to keep it from sounding harsh ~ so I may have just been overcompensating. The Mystery Boost is actually the amp's OD2 channel, so I'm kinda glad you dug that one, especially since it looks like this'll be my only amp for a while. Thanks again, mang.

Members chrispsullivan Posted November 25, 2012 Members Share Posted November 25, 2012 I liked the mystery boost the best myself, but I really preferred your Marshall tones. Sell the Koch and the Speed Twin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sell the Koch and the Speed Twin. The Marshall has the best tones, hands down ... but with the new baby, I need something with a lot of flexibility ~ the Koch has silent recording capability, for example. It also takes up MUCH less space, and (this is what I was going to start a separate thread about) I just discovered yesterday that I can dial it in very close to the Marshall's tone, whereas the Speed Twin won't get close to that at all. Besides, I can get more dough for the Marshall, y'know? Thanks for checking out the clips & the feedback! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members lenster Posted November 25, 2012 Members Share Posted November 25, 2012 321For me the Mystery boost sounded the thickest/ creamier tone, Just my opinion , that is what id go for in a boost.So what is it ?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So what is it ?? Thanks, man. #3 was the built in boost in the amp (the OD2) channel. I think that's why it's a bit thicker & has a bit more "character." I just labeled it "mystery" because a lot of folks around here don't dig this amp (Koch Studiotone) & they also know I recently picked up a Marshall ... so I didn't want people's ideas about various amp brands to color their perceptions.

Members lenster Posted November 26, 2012 Members Share Posted November 26, 2012 Sounds great to me.Thiking of picking up a Visual Sound Route 66 to use as a boost on the H&K Clean Channel.Drive n comp should do the trick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members draelyc Posted November 26, 2012 Author Members Share Posted November 26, 2012 Thanks! I'll be curious how you like the comp pedal with the Tubemeister. Don't have any experience with 'em, myself... but the preamp/clean boost pedal in demo #1 actually sounds really nice with the Studiotone's clean channel.
