Suggested Settings
Before we look at some suggested settings there are a few points
that you should remember;
1- Taste in sound is a very personal thing. What might sound
great to one guitar player might not appeal to another guitarist.
Therefore these suggested settings may well need some fine tuning to
suit your own individual tastes.
2- One of the main influences on your sound will be your guitar.
Each guitar displays certain characteristics e.g. solid heavyweight
guitars with humbuckers tend to be very warm sounding and generally
speaking exhibit a strong bass response, while lighter weight guitars
with single coil type pick-ups tend to have a much brighter sound.
3- There are a whole range of factors that can influence
background noise. You will notice, particularly when using a heavily
overdriven tone, that standing too close to the combo when playing can
induce feedback and hum, as can facing the combo, so select your
positioning carefully. There may be occasions where you actually
require feedback, here again your positioning will be important and you
will need to experiment to find the most suitable. Other factors that can
create unwanted noise include poor quality guitar leads and certain
types of pick-ups (single coil types particularly).
Below there follows four simple settings, for both guitars fitted
with single-coil pick-ups and those fitted with humbuckers. Though
you may find these settings suit your taste perfectly they should be
viewed as a starting point from which to develop your own settings.
Please Note :
Volume and Reverb should be adjusted to taste.
