  • Hey thanks for watching, anyone wondering where was the last few weeks I picked up a nasty bug from the airports taking my girls down to Melbourne to see Iron Maiden. We loved it, proud Dad moment right there. I've been working on that their whole lives :)

    As for dialling the tone, I wanted to try a different approach building it with you rather than just showing the end result. The Victory Kraken is a killer amp that's so versatile. An absolute powerhouse in a small box.

    To install them on your katana mkii, the easiest way is to drag the downloaded files to your desktop.
    Open up the tone studio with your katana connected and go to the top right corner and click the down arrow. Locate your file and it'll bring it into your library where you can drag them across to the katana :)

      Luckily Chuck mostly used amps that were pretty much solid state a lot of the time. No tube amp required really! You can find clones of the pedals Lambchopper uses for an even lower price if you have access to Joyo and Behringer pedals locally or online.
      Check out the Joyo jf-04 that is a clone of the Marshall Shredmaster. Which is sorta like a Valvestate preamp. Combine that with a boost pedal of some sort.
      Also the Mooer Ultra Drive is like a modded DS-1.

      @@LambChopper678 Sure, but that's kind of the point. It's not like a lot of the modern, more refined death metal tones, that's why it's nasty! Combine that with Chuck's choice of using the DiMarzio X2N pickup, that with the DS-1 just obliterates the 800's preamp.

    Just real quick, wanted to say thanks for all your work and for what I've learned from your videos. It's an inspiration to play more which becomes harder when you have lots of kids. You made a video a year or two ago where you mentioned being an introvert and getting anxiety in front of the camera, which I think is awesome. One of the problems with the world today is too many extroverts. Anyway, keep doing what you do man, and God bless you and your family.

    I am all about the solid state amps. Im running 2 rigs atm. One is a crate gfx1200. Its got that marshall sound. The other is actually a Boss Katana mk2 with a Kustom KG212FX. I run them together through the inputs. It's almost like a jerry cantrell sort of sound but it does the death stuff great. I always set my eq with bass: 3, mids: 7-8, and treble: 8-9. I also run a tube screamer and an eq set to a full mid scoop in front. It makes a great tone. The amps both have distinct sounds and running together they sound huge

    • @BraydenM014
      @BraydenM014 2 дні тому

      For both rigs I use the same pedal board, it's a Donner Noise Killer, a mini Tube Screamer, an Amazon bass EQ(it helps tighten up that low end for fast rhythm sections and fast metal leads), and a Dunlop OG Crybaby Wah. I want to upgrade to a better noise gate and better od pedal, but for now, the rigs sound massive. I'm doing a Joe Satriani style gig here in March and will be using the crate. The katana/kustom rig is something I highly recommend if you ever do a solid state recreation. The Kustom has a lot of grit while the katana has more headroom. Dial in the eq on both amps, and you'll have every solid state tone you could dream of. The kustom has 2 inputs and I run the katana through input 2. While the guitar and pedals run through input 1(I'm sure lamby knows but for anyone reading that doesn't know, input 1 is your reg input, input 2 is dialed back a bit mainly for "bedroom use")

      He mentioned it, and has done a video with one. If you're new here, this guy's videos are all about taking the gear you have and dialing the tone you want. He gets very close to tones on classic metal records with gear that's nothing like what was used. It's important to remember that the guys using 8100s in the 90s were using them because they were cheap, and they dialed the tone they wanted with what they had. Nowadays people obsess over the specific gear used, rather than understanding that it's not the gear, it's the player, and how they use the gear.
