Long time....

[Bob Savage]

Hey peeps, been a while since I've been here other than an occasional lurk. Hope everyone's doing well. Let me know if anybody died or something.

Decided to do a little amp tweaking for recording and was hoping you guys might let me know what you think of this little diddy.

I died.

Was worried, will sleep better tonight.

That was awesome. The riff at :37 was killer man. Was not expecting that at all.

I died.

I was wondering what happened to you!!!

Thanks for the update. Anybody else from the forum die? I hope not.

This is very insightful. Don't mistake sleeping well for actually being well.

Thanks dude, appreciate it. Any general thoughts on the recorded guitar tone itself?

Sounded good and fitting. I guess it sort of reminded me of Lamb of God with less gain and maybe a little more mid heavy.

Liked the riff. The tone sounds like a VHT to me. Not much gain. Glad to hear you playing again.

D60? Sounds good...

 

[Bob Savage]

You guys are right that it's a Fryette... not the D60. It's the GPDI direct.

Ripping clip!!!!

Great tone, great meter, tasty

 

[maddnotez]

Nice!! Those look fun. How effective are the knobs? I bet you could get a lot of good sounds with the gains and contour knobs.

Thanks man, that's a huge compliment because I am way out of shape. I need to get back to playing more but have been occupied otherwise with things that seem to have my interest lately.

Yeah, this thing is capable of a bunch of different tones. It's also surprisingly cool into a speaker, 2x12 or 4x12 since it's a 1 watt tube amp.

This is how I had it setup for the cip.

 

[maddnotez]

Wow it's got a pitbull setting too? Didn't notice that, very cool.

It does and it makes a big difference too. I need to spend some time playing with the controls because it's just as versatile as everything else Steve designs. This is with about 10 minutes playing with it and then REC.

This can be re amped into my mesa 400 I assume? And a deliverance or PB preamp? Very cool!

Yes in fact, it has a direct out so you can send both the amplified and direct signal from the same device.

That sounded awesome! Great riffs as well... The tone kinda reminded me of early Priest.
