i cant get over it!

Sign in to disble this ad
so a guy posts this facebook! go on have a look


so besides the smiley face if you notice the the enhance knob, which is a mid cut again, on the combo amp is turned up to 8/10 and then he brings back some mids and some more highs on the amp eq. i cant figure out if he is abnormal or he has an abnormal bass to actually hear some bass after that kind of awesomeness
its just kind of funny aint it!?
edit: btw i just asked him and he told me its his always on setting

/sarcasm

Why is the amp face a mirror image?

With those settings his bass must sound like clicking two empty aluminum cans together.

You mean "Fieldy tone".

I see boneheads do this in Guitar Center all the time. They screw around with the EQ sliders, then boost the knobs to put back in portions of the sound they have already killed. There is a difference between adjusting an amp with your ears and following the manual. You should use both techniques!

It's not. You're just looking at the top of the amp from the back. Walk around front(or put your monitor upside down) and it looks fine.

Yeah, I know eh. I was looking at it thinking "what the****", until I remembered that one amp my father had with the volume controls on the top. I should have clued in faster with the carrying handle right there.
