I'm just wondering cuz I get some feedback after I stop playing, so I'm wondering if my instrument level is too high. It's currently at 47.
What's the gain like on your preset? I never go higher than 2.20 with like the heaviest stuff I've ever heard. Any higher is just too much
Every amp model has a different gain taper , you can't just choose a number and apply it to all models, unless what your saying is the highest you've ever gone is 2.20 on any model.
Well my statement was based on a fair amount of assumption, my bad. Let me clarify! I assume if he is getting feedback it's from an EMG humbucker, and to think he is getting feedback at all, even with a vintage or low gain tone is hard to believe. So I can only assume he is trying for a high gain tone with an EMG humbucker. All the typical "high-gain" amps, to me at least have a similar sweet spot as far as gain goes. The EL34-y type stuff obviously gets driven harder. I'm thinking Recto's, 5150's, 6505's, 5153's, VH4, Powerball, etc. So for those, yes, in the 2-ish range. When I use the Atomica, JCM800, or Splawn I do tend to go higher.
