  • I absolutely cranked the Vox to maximum volume! Master at 10 and Top Boost at 10 gives us some great Beatles tones from the White Album, Let it Be, Abbey Road, and more.

    Have you tried to Max all the volumes on the amp and roll back the volume on guitar to clean your tone? And everything in-between.
    That includes Max the volume on the channel you are not using, too. You'll notice a nice surprise to your overall tone

    • @michealclark9535
      @michealclark9535 4 роки тому +6

      Agree, I have had this amp for years now and it only occurred to me recently that I should try this, cranked it up then used guitar volume to go clean or dirty and I was very impressed! Seems to be more dynamic with pick attacks that way too.

  • @ficothecroatianrocker

    Great playing, I'm getting ready to buy new amp and this really sound great, especially combined with Les Paul
    I'll most likely buy it and also Epiphone Les Paul 50s standard since I don't have money for Gibson, but Epiphone really nailed it with inspired by Gibson collection

    • @jonsalama
      @jonsalama  3 роки тому +5

      That's a great idea, the Epiphone Les Paul 50s is an excellent guitar. I really like Vox amps and in my opinion, an expensive amp is more valuable than an expensive guitar. Good luck and rock on bro!!

      John Ward The guitar volume was set to 10 the entire time. I’m considering making another video testing out how it would sound by rolling back the volume on the guitar.

      I used a Zoom H6 recorder, which actually records amazing audio from its included X/Y unidirectional microphones. I mic'd up the Vox about 6 inches away from the speaker.

    Hi. Can you PLEASE demonstrate Let It Be amp presets!!

    • @jonsalama
      @jonsalama  3 роки тому +1

      George used his rosewood Telecaster and fairly standard tube overdrive tone from a Fender silverface amp (probably a Fender Twin). He also ran it through a Leslie 145 speaker to get the swirling tone on anthology versions of Let it Be, but it's not so clear on the album version. The Beatles didn't use a lot of guitar effects in Let it Be. I would focus on trying to get a cranked tube amp sound, with more treble.

    Great amp. Solid rendition of Beatles tunes and great to see someone of your youth appreciating their great music. One thing you inadvertently did though was to demonstrate how crappy some of the Beatles guitar parts would have sounded if they had used a Les Paul.

    The only thing I don’t like is that the “Nowhere Man” solo., it wasn’t like the solo John and George played. Everything else is alraight
    And the part of “Drive My Car” isn’t supposed to be somewhat of a scale.
