angryman is just really niceangryman is just really nice
Fuck buddy thanks for the extremely kind words I am honestly honestly humbled

The settings were:

Other guitarists 5150 - Lead channel - pre 6, Bass 5, mid 5, treb 7, post 3.5, res 7, pres 0. (he's got high gain JJ's in the pre amp & a set of 2 6l6's & 2 KT88's in the power stage)

My 5150 - lead channel - pre 6.5, bass 6.5, mid 5, treb 5, post 3.5, res 7, pres 0. (Ive got the bias mod & use 4 JJ's + 1 groovetubes 5751 in main driver & JJ 6l6's)

It didn't sound anything special on it's own although it was very tight sounding but in the mix it totally destroys.

When we play live I have it set up : Lead channel - pre 5.5, bass 6.5, mid 2.5, treb 4, post 3.5, res 6.5, pres 7 with a Maxon OD808 up front set to drive 9 o'clock, tone 11 o'clock, level 12 o'clock

I know it sounds like alot of pre gain but thats due to the 5751 in the main driver cos it's 30% less gain than the JJ so it cleans up the sound alot & gives more headroom so you can turn up the gain a bit without the harsh fizz.
