Ok call me crazy....

Re: Ok call me crazy....

Do you even think before you type? You do realize that most recordings ever done have multiple amps on them. Even if there wasn't 2 amps, it's often the same amp double tracked with different settings, so in essence, it's 2 amps. Go through your junk box and find something that'll allow you to run both of your Marshalls together, EQ them to where they compliment each, and then come back and tell me they don't sound better together.

Do YOU even think??
A recording is different than one guitarist playing alone to acheive his sound. This situation by the OP isnt a band recording scenario where two guys are getting their own sound and mixing it. Each man has his own sound, and thats what I'm saying; to get your own sound, having two amps is absurd, becasue then, and I hadnt really taken this into consideration till you just said it, you'd have 4 or 5 different amps in the final recorded mix- absolutely preposterous!
Too many cooks spoil the broth ( or havent you heard that?)
Your just blowing smoke buddy- one good amp is all anyone needs..one GOOD amp, and where do you get this crap you are spouting of all of the greatest recorded music from guitar legends used several different amps?... OR that double tracking with different amp settings on the same amplifier is tantamount to using two different amps??
You are so effin full of it! TUSH THE EFF UP NINEFINGER! YOU ARE MY BIAAYATCH!

Re: Ok call me crazy....

Bonamassa has 4 good amps running at the same time, or used to. Each had elements that contributed to the overall sound.

I think its a great idea, and I'd second the use of a Bluesbreaker type amp...something of a different tonal spectrum to add something extra that the fender doesn't have.

No, why? I wouldnt dump on the crud you play with ( thats not a compliment).

They are all basically the same amp.
Look at the great YJM! What does he use? A wall of old Superleads ( like Moi , of course..well, I only have two, if you count my JMP MKII). Are they "different" amps? WTH do you think??

Oh, so now that you own 1 good amp, you know everything there is to know about tone? Dude, you're at best pathetic. Blowing smoke, yeah you should know all about that one since it's all you ever do on here. You're a waste of server space and oxygen. I've tried to be nice to you but every time I turn around all I see is one worthless Dbag trolling this place up with your BS. I am not full of it, and I'm most certainly not your biatch. Stupid worthless drunken idiot.

Re: Ok call me crazy....

Well this thread just went in an entirely different direction.


I'll look into a bluesbreaker, though. I've never actually even played one or seen one in person. That's weird now that I think about it.

It is Jerry, there is no getting through to him (I've been in your spot) and it is best to just not reply to him if he starts using CAPS or personal insults.

And you, just shut up and GTFO. You haven't contributed shit to the thread and you are only discouraging what the OP wants to do. Can you make yourself look any more like an ass-hat?

OT: Sure OP, try what you want! Screw any nay-sayers and it is all what you want. Mixing a great dirt and thick amp (look at amps with 12" speakers) along with your Fender (if you EQ to have a bit more mids and bass, up the treble if needed so it doesn't get muddy) can work very well. You live by a guitar shop where you can try out amps?

You actually took the time to look at my posts to try to make me look stupid, over a joke of all things? Get over yourself you egotistical prick.

Oh, and here if you want to play that game.

I am a dipshit. I think I am perfect. Therefore I get hammered and then talk out of my ass and then say condescending shit on forums until I get banned; which is when I move on to another forum. I always end up making myself look like an asshole, but that is incorrect, I am an asshole.

whered you drum that up? That was during my introsepective, and hyper self critical period...and I think thats been years ago.

You might want to reconsider having posted this. It's against forum rules. When you feel there's no other course than direct personal abuse of an individual, it's time to step away from the computer.

Why should he refrain or anyone else when it comes to that buffoon? Jerry either out right attacks people or is passive aggressive about it on here almost on a daily basis and nothing gets said to him. I know you sympathize with him and can relate and all that, but I'll be damned if I let some self righteous buffoon talk down to me like that. I don't care if it's in jest on an internet forum or not. He wouldn't do it face to face, so I will not tolerate it on here and no one else should either.

He didn't drum that up anywhere. He typed it himself.

You have a choice. You can limit it to one, or else open the can of worms and everybody will be throwing personal insults at anybody and everybody. Just because one person may not be able to rein themselves in doesn't mean that everybody else should follow suit. There are alternatives.

Besides, many people learn by example. What kind of example do you want to set ? Lower the tone of the place by lowering yourself, or raising the tone of the place by rising above the things that irk you ? In the first example, you justify the behaviour of the person who is annoying you ... in the second, you can set an example of better behaviour that may have a positive impact.

If you consider the person who is irritating you to be an idiot ... well, you know what they say about idiots. They'lll take you down to their level and then beat you with experience. Just ignore things that annoy you, and remember there is such a thing as an ignore list.

There is also a button for reporting posts that you consider to be in breach of suitable behaviour, and people assigned to deal with those things.

Re: Ok call me crazy....

Running two amps DOES indeed give you big tone (in spite of what MetalManiac said). One clean and one dirty is huge. Both clean gives you a depth that you can't get with just one amp...ANY amp. Running both dirty gives you a tremendous depth and tone and, believe it or not, actually INCREASES clarity at the same time that it increases dirt.

I wouldn't ever consider going back to just one amp. If I was ever forced to just use one amp, it would be a tremendous sacrifice.

 

[crusty philtrum]

Re: Ok call me crazy....

I wonder how many people consider phase when they run two different amps ?

 

[GuitarDoc]

Re: Ok call me crazy....

A very important consideration. I use the Radial Bones Twin City ABY box that has a 180 degree phase switch. Makes a big difference.

You certainly do care, and I had nooooo idea about that self-loathing period I just learned about thanks to you lol. You seriously thought you said that? I think I would like that Jerry a lot more.

The "Mr Wangcaster" joke, you're the only one immature and childish enough that finds that funny. Aren't you a grown adult? You have the personality of a teenage girl.
