Members jlc1587 Posted January 26, 2009 Members Share Posted January 26, 2009 Makes sense to turn the presence down though. But yall got the resonance at like 4? c'mon man! lol This amp sounds way more brutal with the resonance up at 8 or even maxed. And not really so much that you need low end the amp just sounds way better like that. It's like it comes out more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not looking for a brutal metal tone though, just a modern, tight ROCK tone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Cap'n Ahole Posted January 26, 2009 Members Share Posted January 26, 2009 By setting the Pre gain to 5 on the clean channel, I was able to get a warm clean tone with just a hint of crunch and switching to the crunch mode gave me an awesome classic rock tone. The lead channel is incredible for heavy rhythms.... The amp is surprisingly quiet too..... it's way more versatile than a lot of people give credit for and quite frankly I have to say that if you can't get anything but metal out this amp, it's probably user error. Big +1 on all this.. Nobody talks about the crunch ch for just ROCK, but man.. I get great straight old school rock/hard-rock outa that channel! I like the amp wayyyy better than I thought I would. Glad you dig! . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members wanky Posted January 26, 2009 Members Share Posted January 26, 2009 Well, I'm not absolutely sure is this my amp for life, cause I didn't play a lot of amps,but it is the TOP amp, for metal specially. Not only because sound, but other very important things like cutting thru, reliability, flexibility(you can change tubes with effect in the sound,which is very "open", so you also are able to tight him up if you want, or leave it as it is,its just another posibility to create the sound as you wish to be,you can also clear up the sound with changing the tubes).Very suitable with my englV60 cab. Major of amps are closed with their sounds, you can't do anything, so big HAIL to 5150/6505 series. +1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
