This amp has a lot of mids and they are a bit different sounding than most amps I have played. I went for a ton of mids because it filled out and complimented the low end of the amp when I pushed them. What you hear is the amp's character, not some eq'd out super polished tone. I don't think ultra eq'd clips are very genuine and honest.
There is almost no post eq on this track at all...only a slight bump at 4.4khz to add some top end. That is it, nothing else.
I never have gone for the same old same old tone in my clips...I'm not big on eq-ing the fuck out of something to dress it up. I too think that lots of metal clips sound cut and pasted, especially the re-amped DI tracks that are floating around out there. Every one of my clips is an original composition. For better or worse, that is how I do it.
