Post Your EQ Pics - Amp Settings & Pedals:

How long did it take you to figure out your settings? :blink:
Man, it's taken forever, I'm still working on them.
In all seriousness though they are a versatile little amp. From sparkling cleans (especially with a strat or tele through it), through to very overdriven & heavily compressed tones that single ended amps excell at. This one has an alnico speaker so that adds its own compression too. Take pedal really well. Cheers

The DSL40C killed it today. Snarling midrange....it just cut right through the mix and the speaker was pushing air.

Volume was about halfway...
 
The other guitar player had a Twin Reverb and I had to keep turning down because he got lost under the Marshall. It was literally screaming loud but didn't hurt your ears.

All the work on the DSL40C paid off.
 
New lead guitarist (Todd) with his EMG equipped Les Paul just before it shorted out and stopped working.

I handed him the Les Paul Replica and we carried on!!!!!

Todd is a great lead player. I prefer playing rhythm because I am uber-proficient at it.

However, I play the solos to "Breaking The Chains," "Holy Diver," "Fantasy," "Rock Me," and a few others (which I enjoy) too...but in this genre, great rhythm playing is a lost art.

Needs a Floyd!
 
I’ve actually grown to like them. Sure, absolute pain to tune but once you do, it STAYS in tune. That and I tend to use it to do vibrato’s for stuff I’d normally find either difficult such as in a really high bend, or just not possible otherwise, such as chords. Just swing the arm back and lightly tap it for that up-pitched vibrato.

I play too aggressively. I constantly push it sharp on palm mutes...
 
Ah, I can see that. Probably better than my problem where I tend to strum harder than I realize and end up breaking the low strings...

Ouch!!@!!

My frequent use of double stops and bending strings while leaving others unfrosted also makes things tough for me with a floating bridge.
 
Yea, gets rather expensive LOL.

And just out of curiosity, is it just the way you attack the strings? Because I thought I bent the ever loving crap out of mine and have yet to have any issues from either the licensed rose or the actual rose?

I do a lot of bends where the 'g' gets bent, but the b & e are fretted in a relaxed state.

A great example of this is the solo in Tesla's 'Love Song.'

So my b & e are now flat from the Floyd movement.
