Hey all, help me out here.
I've been trying to cop that MBV Only Shallow rhythm tone, and it seems I'm perpetually missing the mark. The closest I've been able to get seems to be with either a 59 Bassman or Vibroverb model with a bit of compression and some twiddling with the graphic EQs, but it always ends up sounding just a bit too lifeless. I think trying to balance out the top end sound of single coils is tricky, too; I need that slight splash of the pick attack, but I don't want too much "zing" after that.
Anyone ever waste their time with this kind of thing? I'm trying to build up a few more rhythm tones that aren't too Clean 101 sounding, and I could really use a bit more of a juicy tone that isn't straight-up jangly or bluesy...
Cheers.
