I’ll load that up today.
The Fiore pickups are VERY bright and hifi. I can’t use this preset on any of my other guitars without changing the eq. I’m not surprised it didn’t sound good on vintage style pickups. I’m guessing your preset will sound way bright for me.
I did experiment with turning the MV all the way up and liked what it did, so I’m curious how you have the amp set.
Thanks!
I don't know, I tried to keep it to the same basic level of brightness, and my tele is pretty biting. It doesn't feel bright with my Parker, and that is a very bright guitar. Felt a tad dull with my 335, but mine is pretty dark (Rio Grande pickups).
Try turning back off the bright switch first, or drop the presence back to ~3. The settings are mostly the same, I mostly just changed the cab (the 12L is a bit more upper-mid cut to begin with over the 12-65) and the source of overdrive to the power section. Another thing to try is dropping the high cut in the cab block down to ~5k, I think I had it at around 7 - that would get you closer to Mayer's live tone.
