Amp Tone and Effects Placement
|
"Tube amps sound good" "Solid-state amps sound bad" Try to play tube amps near their saturation point -- this brings out the power tube sound and engages the guitar speakers. To play quieter, use a lower-power tube amp such as 5 watts. Strive to bring out the physical, real, tangible tone of saturating power tubes and hard-driven speakers. This includes using feedback, room noise, room reverberation, and hum and buzz. Clinically sterile tones such as a guitar effects processor and "speaker simulator" (treble-cut) recorded straight into the mixer sound cheap and too convenient and easily reproducible. |

Hi amp question....?
Hi I bought a fender champ 30 .It doesn't have a headphone jack . It does have an external speaker jack with
a min load of 8 ohms. Can I use the external speaker jack as a headphone jack, safely without harming the amp?
Please let me know . Thank You.

amp eq
I was wondering if someone out there knew of any websites where the amp eq settings are given. I love to play guitar and to exactly match certain groups' tones would be great.

Try the line6 website. I bought a Line6 Flextone that willI plug into my pc, and from
there site I can download amp tones from a library automatically. The POD effect
does the same.
