A beginners guide to dialing in your amp

Re: A beginners guide to dialing in your amp

ANother great moment of truth. The Uber-Amazing Ultra Tone that you just made in the living room, may sound like crap or be un-hearable in the band. The AMAZING band sound on stage might be unbearable in the living room alone. Many many many bedroom shredders (and sadly, band members) don't get this....and most JB haters.

Some of the best tones I've ever gotten onstage were tones that wouldn't float my boat in the practice room without the band.

I always thought that the 2x12 Classic was a noble amp... always sort of wanted one in the 80's and would feel a little funny when I stood next to one. No other Peavey made me feel that way.

Those 2x12 Classic amps were indeed cool. Thing with lots of Peavey amps is that they built a huge degree of versatility into the controls, and so it's very easy to get one out of balance and make it sound bad.
