    What is your Amp settings?

    It's always interesting to see what other guitarists have there settings to. So what are your amp settings and what Amp do you use!

    Amp:
    Marshall AVT50H and a 4 speaker, cabinet.

    Settings:
    Gain - 7.5
    Bass - 8
    Middle - 2
    Treble - 8
    Reverb 4
    Rumour has it that Van Halen have continued in recent years with a new lead signer, but since there 1985 breakup, nobody involved has ever recaptured that spontaneous cheeseburger magic!

      Marshall MG100R-head + Behringer 412S cab

      Channel: OD 2
      Gain: 6.5 to 10 (varies)
      Bass: between 2 and 4
      Middle: 4.5
      Treble: 6-ish
      Contour (the scoop): 5.5 or 6.5
      Channel Volume: 5.5
      Reverb: a little.
      Why settle for something you have, if it's not as good as something you're out to get?

            Am going much heavier on the bass and much less on the mid and treble than I used to.

            Reverb at about 5.

              I was wondering how long it would be before somebody said that!

                  Depends on what Amp I'm using. Generally I have the Preamp set at about 5 or 6.

                    The groovetubes in that Amp are a waste, you should have bought a decent Amplifier to begin with, man.

                      Set the volume to 11, then play away None of this frollicky bollocks

                      Unless I use my FX pedal, in which case I find a patch (I haven't full tried them all out lol) that's not too fake - sounding and is bassy, and give that a whack.

                        So are all the knobs on your amp turned to full?

                        It actually doesn't sound to bad on a bass. Unless it's the knop which makes things vibrate.

                          I don't use the EQs, only the volume knobs. Occasionally I put a bass-boost on there, but that doesn't make a great difference.
