Well i think its more to do with what and how you play it not just the settings alone- but can you be more specific on the tone you're after? Based on a song or guitarist...

People share specific patches for sounds from songs. I've tried alot of times to get a close to petrucci sound on my pandora- no luck so far. I can probably find it eventually, but it will take some more work for sure. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

Works for him. Really there are no set rules for tone, you can get great tone with all kinds of settings. On the flip side of andy, a lot of people use a lot of treble in their tone and it works very well too. If you're having trouble with your tone, just set everything to twelve o clock and adjust from there... if it's not meaty enough, add some mids... if it sounds muted, try some treble, if you aren't chugging enough add some bass. Or try scooping the mids. Of course it helps if you turn the volume up You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

Also I played on lots of different amps on stage and I always find my sound around flat position..With some intervention on my bass guitars eq..I don't like to color my sound on amps Want it as clean as possible (like it gets out of my instrument) You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.
