      Early 80's JCM 800 (100 watt lead 2) and a 4x12 equipped with 25 watt celestions.

      Bass 10
      Mid 6
      Treb 8
      Presence 6
      Gain 7
      Vol 4
      Reverb 0

      Just plug in a Les Paul Standard with an EMG 81 through an Ibanez analog delay, Boss DS-1 and GE-7 for two different lead tones, and a Crybaby bass wah that makes some unholy sounds when sweeping through the frequency range that is usually reserved for the bass.

      That's what my guitar sound is made of
      It's a shame that families should be torn apart by something as simple as....wild dogs

          Even when you play Lick My Love Pump? I understand when you're playing Stonehenge, but really.....

            Lick My Love Pump is a piano song. Of course if Nigel ran his keyboard through an MXR flanger into a stack of Marshalls on 11 EVH style, Lick My Love Pump could turn into Deep Throat My Love Pump and Gag on the Cum.
            No! You can't have the keys to the wine cellar!

              Bump, since some of us might have new amps/settings...

              On the Laney...
              Resonance switch ON
              Presence 5-10, depending on my overall volume.
              Bass, Mid 6-7
              Treble 7-8
              Gain 10
              Drive 5 (basically, this is like an extra preamp stage...)
              Master volume, 2-11. (master goes up, treble/presence go down)


              On the Trademark 60...
              Channel 1, SRV settings
              Channel 2, VH settings (what else?)
              Why settle for something you have, if it's not as good as something you're out to get?

                    On the Gallien-Krueger microlead, my tone settings are:

                    bass 10
                    low mid 7
                    hi mid 6-7
                    treble 8-9

                    Like all solid-state amps, because they amplify and clip at the lower wave first, the treble is usually piercing so I trim the treble down then up the louder I get.

                    the GK250ML has a cheap chorus I like with stereo 50w+50watt outputs to separate 16ohm cabinets.

                    My Roland Jazz Chorus head replaced it but got stolen, so what I was playing 20 years ago and put in the closet as spare became my main and only rig.

                    Instead of replacing the JC120 with another, I'll probably get two Marshall Mode 4 solid state heads to drive 4 cabs stereo chorus.

                    We'll see what my setting will be with those. Nothing beats solid state for clean channel, or clean-stereo chorusing.. separate channel amplification of a true (not emulated) stereo chorus effect was unbelievable at 200 watts, at 700 watts it's going to roar like an ocean.

                                Yeah it's of the same period.

                                Mine had shitty capacitors, I bought it kaput for $150 and replaced those shitty Nichicon electrolytic caps populating throughout the board.

                                I got 575 for it on ebay. They're still a bargain in the 600 dollar range.

                                If I can't get two Mode Four Marshalls for a grand, I might get a pair of 900's. But lately I've seen them for around 800 and for the poor heat tolerance/maintenance issue the way they're designed I'd rather have the Mode4.
