Amp Models and Effects
This section describes characteristics of each amp model
and effect.
AMP model
BTQ CLEAN
This models the clean channel of a high-quality amp that
was produced only on special order, and was known as the
overdrive special. With a beautifully rounded low range, a
sharp midrange attack, and a sweet treble register, this is
ideal for single coil pickups.
BLACK 2x12
This models a black-faced 2x12" combo amp that has become
an indispensible item for country and blues players. Its tight
and clean sound provides deep piano-like bass tones, and
will deliver the classic Chicago blues tone particularly when
used with single coil pickups.
TWEED 4x10
This models a 4x10" combo amp from 1959 that was original
-
ly designed for bass guitar. Its smooth and crisp overdrive
sound will respond sensitively to your picking dynamics
and to the volume of your guitar.
AC15
This models channel 2 of the VOX AC15 (1x12", 15W), which
was manufactured in 1962 and was a big hit for its compact
cabinet, power, and great tone – along with then-popular
British bands.
AC30TB
This models an AC30 amp with the “top boost” circuit that
was included as standard starting with units produced in
1964. It delivers a smooth and refined top end, majestically
deep overdrive, and a rich and brilliant clean sound.
UK '70S
This models the high treble channel of a hand-wired amp
head made in England during the early 60’s. Raising the
volume of this 50W output amp all the way produces the
crunch that will forever be the sound of rock ‘n’ roll.
UK '80S
This models a UK-manufactured 100W single-channel head
with master volume made in 1983. Turn the GAIN control all
the way up to get that thick, snarling hard rock and heavy
metal sound that dominated the 80’s.
UK '90S
This models the high-gain channel of a modern 100W amp.
While individual notes are clearly defined, it delivers a mon
-
ster sound that’s quite aggressive and arrogant.
