    Thinking about a DSL50...

    all the artist that I like get their tone by driving the power section really hard... to me preamp distortion only, sounds like a distortion pedal... harsh highs, and no meaty mids. I still think that it's better to cranked an amp than set it to 1... that's why I use low wattage amps for low...

    Thinking about a DSL50...

    Be carefull with what people refer to as "low volume". A lot of guys drive their amp at 6-7 so when they play them at 4, they say it's low volume. But 4 is enough to filled a small club without a PA, and it stills insanely loud. Under 3 or 4, my DSL100 doesn't sounds good for drive sounds... the...

    Dsls...: What do you guys like better?

    I'm on the red channel OD1 98% of the time, with half gain... I use my pickup volumes and selector to switch from clean to dirty to lead. Most of the time I have my neck pickup volume on 2 (that's my clean), bridge pu volume at full most of the time (hard rock), or 5 for rock, 3 for classic...

    New power control (YJM AFD)

    It's hard for me to understand how it really works... As I understand it's not just like an onboard powerbrake, it reduce the actual voltage running through the amp... but what does that mean? Does it mean that the power tubes are really cooking as if you were really playing at the crazy...

    My Blackstar ht-5 needs new tubes

    Hi guys I've never changed the tubes of my blackstar, after 2 years playing it, I guess new tubes will be nice... What do you guys suggest? I'd like a tube that sounds a little more bright than the stock tube, cause the only bad thing I can say about this amp is that, on the british side...

    TONE: Is it in the hands or not?

    I've heard some good players making bad gear sounds good. But I've never heard a bad player souding good through good gear... So I guess hands are more important.... but good player still need good gear to switch from good to awesome... :hmm:
