Peavey XXX
I have had this head for a little while and i can't seem to get a distortion out of it that isn't scratchy or tinny sounding. Anybody have any suggestions on some settings for this amp on the ultra or crunch channels?? Is there an amp head for about the same money that has a thicker sound. Also i am using dimebuckers through my jackson guitar, is that maby causing the problem also??

Re: Peavey XXX
Your pickups might add high end, but how the fuck are you eq'ing it? I've played both my RG7420 and EC1000 (which has emg 81's) through mine and always gotten compliments on my tone. I generally run my treble around 6ish, midrange around 4.5 and bass around 4, crank the channel volume, and put the gain on about 6. The only tone-shaping effect I use is a Boss GE7, which I use to boost specific midrange frequencies. Also, what kind of cab are you using?7Dime7MetalMassacre wrote:I have had this head for a little while and i can't seem to get a distortion out of it that isn't scratchy or tinny sounding.
