    0:26 that's all you need! Tight sound, chug and clear, without fuzz, and low freq. That's i'm love

      @aheadofmetal  4 місяці тому +1

      Thanks dude. I think that was the EQ. That is my favorite also (mainly because it doesnt kill the lowend and feels the best to play)

    I am gravitating towards the Joyo EQ + Boss GE-7 combo. The ProCo Rat while having a bit more reverb it seems, I also like this sound too for different reasons.

      Yea man. Eqs are nice and punchy and the rat is extra warm and sits back a bit

    Nice shootout! Can never go wrong with the classics... Classic amp, classic boost (SD-1). I have the Waza version which IMO gives it a little more low end oomph that often gets lost when boosting but the regular SD-1 is also a perfect match for a Marshall. I also get great results from the Keeley Red Dirt (Germanium) on my Marshalls, especially with guitars that have higher output pickups.

    • @aheadofmetal
      @aheadofmetal  4 місяці тому

      Thanks! I havent tried the Red Dirt, but I think Andy Timmons likes it and if its good enough for him, it is probably good enough for anyone :)
      Agree on the SD-1. Haven't tried the waza version yet, but I'm sure it is really good.

      @@aheadofmetal Right on! I didn't know Andy used the Red Dirt... Petrucci definitely does/did. Like most of us I've got a dozen or so overdrives/Tube screamers but those are the two I really like with my Marshalls. They work well with the modern 5150's too (those and the Maxon OD808).

      The market for overdrive pedals is way overhyped. You'd be hard pressed to tell the difference between any in a full mix tbh

    • @aheadofmetal
      @aheadofmetal  4 місяці тому

      With a $30 sd-1 and a $20 fish-n-chips eq, you could easily emulate every overdrive pedal out there.

      @@aheadofmetal if you put the FILTER at 12 o clock on the RAT, Bass and Treble at 4-5, Mid at 7 and presence at maybe 5-6, you've got Morbid Angel tone right there, when the 800 was the main amp. Still the same settings on the JCM 900 on channel 1, but the extra diode in the preamp there makes it a bit fuzzier sounding.
