Greetings,
Wanted some advice on pairing my Les Paul Standard (498T Bridge / 496R Neck through a Marshall SV20) with 4 Greenbacks and getting rid of the two G12 H's. I just can't get that "Clear Grind" Page (Song Remains the Same Movie), Steve Jones Pistols (Bullocks - even though I have his Pick Ups, Townsend Live at Leeds (I'm getting an SG with P90's). I have changed the caps, I've changed the pick ups multiple times (had the classics that came with the LP, had the Slash Seymours, had ones similar to Page) and it dawned on me after researching quite a bit (as a novice), that speakers can make a profound difference. Therefore I have the following questions: 1. Would 4 Greenbacks be too treble, brittle sounding?
2. I've heard the 65 Greenbacks and they to me, in comparison to the G12 M's sound like they have a more bottom, darker, bassier tone.
3. The V Types in a comparison with the G12 M's sound like they have a blanket over them.
4. Creambacks sound slightly less clear (warmer?) than the G12's to me.
The deeper I go the more questions I have. The G12H's have a syrupy, thick, warm sound that (I think) causes the lack of clarity. I don't know......
Any suggestions / advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Ben
