I can agree with that easily..I suppose I should have given more specific details in this quick vid.
I ran a Seymour Duncan 805 and an ISP decimator noise gate in front.
The MF350 was set on the 1st amp (left side) crunch.. I rarely use the right two channels.
The TSL was at very low volume and on the orange channel. Vpr off.
The Peavey I have found lacks a bit of low end thump, so the resonance knob is maxed, which makes it sound just about right. IMHO it is a one trick pony that does what it's designed to do extremely well. If I am striving for a modern metal or death metal type tone, I pick that one every time
The TSL generally sounds the best (of these 4) with std tuned guitars. Also with passive pickups.
It's got a harmonically rich flavor and a smoothness that just sounds "right" in my ears. It feeds back with precision. My own favorite recorded tones have been with this amp.
The Mode Four sounds better and better with low tuned C and B guitars. It also is more affected by my noise gate. It also sounds better with active pickups IMHO. But it trump's all for stage use because it has a solo button right there on the switch!
And I don't care what anyone says, this little Joyo sounds friggin awesome for only being $119!
Not bagging on the Joyo whatsoever.. I just listed my favorites..
Cheers
