Merged these two threads - one thread in the right forum is better than two in the wrong.

yeah, I'd say trash it. Get something a bit more "full" sounding.

I guess depends in what context you want to use it. If you are planning on adding a full bass line, don't add any low end, otherwise do...and maybe soften the highs just a bit, they seemed a bit harsh

i cut down a low of lows and boosted some high mid on it because the pickups were muddy..
hmm...i guess that won't help much unless i use a better pickup..

i've come to realize that there are a rediculous number of factors that contribute to a person's tone. so, only hearing it, i can't really tell if it's the pickups, or cables, or strings, or potentiometers, or amp EQ, or recording equipment, or who knows what else

what about your opinion? what do YOU think about your tone?

I have a radical idea. The door swings both ways,
we could reverse the particle flow through the gate.
We'll cross the streams.

wat i think?

i'm using my PODxt..just bought...(yea i need to tweak it to the guitar's sound as well rite?)
i'm looking for a fat and tight sounding tone...and the current sound is not i want...no experience with god pickups...seymour duncans...dimarzio?
i have a epiphone G400 which i found alrite... for normal rock stuff...not metal....so i attemp to tweak the pod to get a useble tone...so far nothing good yet...maybe i'll keep trying for a while 1st...

maybe..
