marc_leclerc Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 Definitely the Rectum-Frier... for me at least it depends on what you play... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hafilax Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 Yeah, what style? It also depends on what cab and speaker you want to use. I like the JCM800 50W and would mod it to use 6V6s instead of 6L6s to bring it down to about 30W get that nice power tube distortion especially for the cleaner tones. If you're playing clubs you won't get it with a 100W. I don't like the Rectifier tone. Too mid scooped and bassy especially with those big cabs, and not very versatile. The guitar just disappears from the mix so it ends up being cranked and muddying the whole band's sound. Of course that may be what you're looking for. You can do a lot with the cabinet too depending on the typical monitor setup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
