Class-A 15 TB model has a default input EQ low cut of 600Hz...
Class-A 30W Hot (and TB) has a default input EQ low cut of 482Hz...

That's high as hell! If you've ever attempted to get a Vox model to knock down a house like a Mesa TA-30 can...turn the input EQ low cut back down....Input EQ Low Cut is linked to the preamp page low cut, but the preamp page high cut is separate from input EQ high cut...turn up preamp high cut too...

If you swap the tonestack for "Active" it gives you a whole lot more dB range too, something else I think the Mesa has (not active, but more boost/cut range)...or you can just move the default tonestack down to about 500Hz...I'm just earballing it...

I love this thing so much, where is the FAS tip jar

might get muddy in mix

I'm just after getting the low end making it into the gain stage to get distorted all floppy and such, you can always highpass the IR, or highpass it in post...how else do they get a Warwick going through an 8x10 to sit in the mix...but bet that sound the mic was picking up was moving furniture around...i need to f e e l it falling apart
