I've found a great amp that has some very touch sensitive overdrive and have been able to sweep my volume pots from clean to crunch on the "rhythm" channel, and can set the "lead" channel for some really heavy stuff.

The essential delay and reverb are built into the amp, and I can do virtually all my tone shaping from the guitar. It's great- guitar>chord>amp- the ideal.]]> Guitar Players Discussion gosurf80 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/sweet-spot-vs-cranking-to-10/paged/2/#post-328482 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/sweet-spot-vs-cranking-to-10/paged/2/#post-328467 Tue, 12 May 2009 18:42:23 +0000 Guitar Players Discussion Gchord https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/sweet-spot-vs-cranking-to-10/paged/2/#post-328467 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/sweet-spot-vs-cranking-to-10/paged/2/#post-328280 Sun, 10 May 2009 07:43:27 +0000 Guitar Players Discussion Anonymous https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/sweet-spot-vs-cranking-to-10/paged/2/#post-328280 https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/sweet-spot-vs-cranking-to-10/paged/2/#post-328226 Sat, 09 May 2009 18:31:13 +0000
Notes: King has been using this amp for a long time. The amp was made by Norlin Industries for Gibson in the 70's and 80's. Other popular L5 users are Allan Holdsworth and Ty Tabor of King's X. The L5 has an onboard compressor, parametric EQ, and four inputs.

There are so many "colors" & "timbres" that reside in the interaction of the guitar/amp..........it's insane. :mrgreen:
No channel switching/master volume amps for me. YMMV

in case anyone missed it: nothing I just wrote addresses or claims good tone. I agree with Wes: high output pups may be a waste to produce what most consider good tone -- personal taste exceptions acknowledged.]]> Guitar Players Discussion gnease https://guitarnoise.forum/guitar-players-discussion/sweet-spot-vs-cranking-to-10/paged/2/#post-322697
