I currently have a Mesa Single Rectifier Series 1, and I'm just not happy with the low-low mid sound. Every guitarist I've loved the tone of has had a Marshall, so I think that's what I need to get. I run it through a Splawn 4x12 with Eminence Red Coats in an X Pattern.

 

I made the perfect sound in my head, only it needs a little more depth, and a tiny bit more bass with a Line6 PodXTL.

 

Explorer w/ JB ---> Line 6 --->Audacity

 

Pay particular attention to the parts from 1:02 on. Both were with the same patch.

These are the settings I'm pretty sure I used (Sold the pedal to pay for school)

 

Marshall Super Lead

4x12 with Greenbacks or V30's

Boosted for More Gain with the Classic Distortion

Probably a Little Touch of Reverb/Chorus but probably barely noticeable

And I know I messed with the EQ a little

 

I asked on the SD Forums and they said a JCM 900 or a Splawn would nail it. But I thought I'd get a 2nd opinion just to be sure. I'm pretty sure I'm going with JCM 900 as it's a lot cheaper.

 

The mesa just doesn't have that bite, I always keep the bass real low, and the Mids/Highs up near 3'oclock, but it's still just in the wrong Tonal Direction.

 

Thanks for all of the help guys :yourock:
