H08KUGpcL2Q sick lead tones or what? simple music but this dude plays some sick shit. check out around 44:00. what amps is he using? I thought I read it was some fender combo....

resonance knob?

I tried ch 1 clean mode at home last nite (straight in, no efx) and it sounds and feels great. I'll need to focus on the rhythm stuff this weekend.

how does it compare to a VHT CLX or CL?

2205 clean tone sucks (or sucks worse depending on which year you have). it's good for generic rock and hard rock. Diezel leads and cleans are superior IMHO. I'm just not down yet with the rhythm sound (specifically power chording). Plus the diezels seem to have way more bass on tap than any...

Ok so now you're comparing it to a JCM 800. But will it have the bite/crunch of a JCM 800 (2205 style like Tom Morello?) Because mine does not. btw, sometimes I miss NoVA (the bike trails and the snow when I was a kid)...

Just read a forum review that VHT amps are tight/stiff and don't have the gain saturation that Marshalls have (he said they're the "opposite" of marshalls). Is this true?

I've been eyeing VHT/Fryette amps on eBay/CL for a while now. I know Page Hamilton and his band use them in Helmet. Saw them live and those Pittbulls have a noticeable bark to them. I wanted to buy one that goes half power I think the 100 CL does that. But I've never played one. They're...

ok I'll try the low channel master and higher overall master, haven't tried that. I may need to hear another Diezel amp in person b/c I'm pretty sure that my ch 1 in mode 2 or 3 doesn't seem to have the kind of gain in a Marshall or Mesa.

Can you please post a link to a pro recording/song from a famous band using Diezel? Ola Englund has some recordings. I know lots of guys use Diezel but the only one I'm familiar with is Tosin Abasi and he actually uses AXE FX afaik with VH4 and another amp simul for the heavy sounds. Tool...

I've tried settings close to everything at noon except the overall master volume obviously which is between 0.5 to 2 out of 10. I've also tried higher gain settings and maxing out the volume (or channel volume as you refer to it). Also I always use this...

I'd be interested in hearing an A/B comparison with the same cab, guitar, etc. of these 2 amps...

With the Einstein 100 watt head, I'm using a wah, Maxon OD808, ISP decimator, Boss TE-2 (Tera Echo). That's into the preamp. In the parallel effects loop set at 75%, I have a G Major with chorus/delay. I know that the ISP decimator does cause some tone and sustain changes, is anybody else...

btw, at least with the AXEFX II XL, you can run two amp blocks in a preset simul which is really nice. This is what Tosin Abasi of Animals as Leaders is doing...

I had an AXE FX II XL and returned it to Fractal. I ran it into my Rivera S120 effects loop return and into either the gflex or mesa cab. it was very loud and sounded pretty decent and has excellent effects. But it was way too complicated to config/program. For example, if you want to record...

All I need to remember is play dorian over Dm7, for example. And play mixolydian over D7. Those are just two popular examples.

I used to play 3 hours a day for 6 days a week. My fingers never hurt but I'd have callouses. Just like in sports (e.g. weight lifting) if it hurts, don't use it for a while til it's not hurting anymore....

I'd start with C Ionian (major) or C Mixolydian. You can add blues to basically any rock song you want. I've noticed over the years after listening to hundreds of rock and jazz songs/albums that pentatonic, blues, dorian and mixolydian are very popular....

I recommend a device called the eBand that supposedly Petrucci of Dream Theater used/uses. You can play along with songs and slow then down or speed them up. Works with Mac Garageband as well. check it out. it has a tuner and metronome along with many amp models and effect and headphone...
