These are my amp settings on my Mesa Boogie Amp.

Also, I forgot to mention: I am using the clean channel with a Boss DS-1 Distortion pedal

My equipment and setup: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oX0B-5l-5bs

  • What model is the Mesa? and how expensive was it?

  • @N1CKSO It's the Mesa Boogie Studio 22+. I traded my Gibson SG Faded for it

  • Are you guys kidding me ? THIS TONE SOUNDS LIKE A SHIT !! I mean wtf is that ? I never knew that you can make a mesa sound so much like shit, and im not flaming here right now, im serious. Even with my low budget gear i can make better sounds like this, i mean wtf ? Bass at 10 and where the hell is the low end ? And the distortion is way to low it just sound like a huge shit to me sorry.

  • @CoverPlz It sounds like that because of the mic on the camera, listen to any of my recent (band cover)s to see what my tone really sounds like

  • @Aturn3d Now i see whats the problem, you use a crappy BOSS DS-1, a SANSAMP GT 2 would sound alot better. I also checked a band cover of yours, and i have to say in the multilayered mix it sounds really really good. Does this Mesa not have a dirty overdrived channel ? I would like to know how the dirty channel sounds like without the BOSS.

  • @CoverPlz It has a very retro sounding Overdrive. Now when I record I use Podfarm

see all

  • Please help me! my amp only has this settings: Volume(normal). then Volume(distorsion), gain(distorsion), then treble, midle and bass. And it doesnt have numbers like yours. please help what settings should i use? its a cort MX15 btw.

  • @RagingDesire22 My tone is fine, but why not looking for something to improve ?

  • @CoverPlz If you know how a guitar should sound, why are you even watching this?

  • nice. what do you think the settings should be for a good distortion sound on a Fender Frontman 15G because mine dosnt really have half of those on your amp. Thanks.

  • thanks for the configurations man
