Instead of a smile, try forming your EQ sliders into a "V". :twisted:

The Bass and Highs will be boosted, the Mids cut. Or, on your Daddy-O turn Bass up, Mids down, and Highs up.

Also, keep Gain down to about 1/2. You cannot get a great crunch tone with Gain turned way up. You have to turn it way down. The pros do not use nearly the high gain that beginners use. Too much distortion is just MUSH.

Get a tube amp. This kind of tone is easy to get on a tube amp. Overdrive on tube amps is rubbery. Solid States tend to be harsh. Big difference.]]> Guitar Players Discussion Wes Inman https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/n-i-b-crunch-tone/#post-172827 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/n-i-b-crunch-tone/#post-172801 Thu, 20 Apr 2006 22:33:45 +0000

I am using the Daddy-O Overdrive, Compressor, EQ and my new Trip-L-Wah pedal....

Flashback, the smile definitely worked better then the frown! Like they say..."put on a happy face!"

Thanks

Thanks Think of it as taking a scoop of ice cream but instead of ice cream your taking mids leaving a hole in your EQ settings like a smile if you must.]]> Guitar Players Discussion art&lutherie https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/n-i-b-crunch-tone/#post-172561 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/n-i-b-crunch-tone/#post-172546 Wed, 19 Apr 2006 05:48:38 +0000

I am using a tech21 amp. The trademark 30 so if you have any kindof Marshall or rectifier style setting. (not sure how the V-amp operates) go with that. And use the scooped mid style EQ with less bass than treble and just a very small splash of mids. Not to mention turn the gain up!!!]]> Guitar Players Discussion Flashback https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/n-i-b-crunch-tone/#post-172542
