yea i just made this setting on my amp that i really like. it's got 9 distortion, 8 bass, 5 mid, 8 treble, no effects, 4/10 reverb

i put gain up all the way and i put up tone to 10/10, sounds amazing on my guitar, but ive been playing like all lamb of god recently. Drop D sounds so much better with the gain up all the way. I hate reverb so i never put it on unless its like a song that needs it.

When i play things like ratm i put my distortion on like 5/10 and for hendrix or pink floyd it gets turned to like 3/10. I dont use a pedal i just use my amp straight up cause i love the sound.

i cant seem to get my bass,treble,mid to sound right all the time, any suggestions on that?

i go 8 or 9/10 for metallica. for things like zeppelin ill bring it down to 5 or 6 and for other things like pink floyd i do around 2.

i've got a great clean tone on my amp, so sometimes i use my pedal (which i love, metal zone by boss) but also my amps got great distortion

no offense man but i fu[SIZE=2]ckin[/SIZE] hate the sound of that pedal. its so scratchy sounding and i think its just bad. I like the full and powerful sound over that sound.

do u have 1 or 2 bass drums?

I have a Taye double pedal...if I had an iron cobra I'd cream my pants. My Taye one is good though. I really like Taye stuff, good quality.

[QUOTE=R. Blythe]do u have 1 or 2 bass drums?[/QUOTE]

If he's using a double pedal, why would he have two bass drums?

[QUOTE=R. Blythe]do u have 1 or 2 bass drums?[/QUOTE]
i only put my double kick on when i need it,other wise its off,i hate double kick,its cheating,i only have it on like 20% of the time,other than thaqt its single and that would answer if i have 1 or 2 bass drums

I only have a single kick but it's ****ed so i thought that if i was to get a new one i might as well get a double kick, I don't fancy them all that much but there fun to play and a good skill to have.What sort do you guys have?

Double kick is cheating? Well, I'll be ****ed.

Can one explain how double kick is "cheating"?

ok every one does any one know when metallica is touring australia next??

double kiking isnt cheating as long as you play it well. theres nothing worse than dble kiking then it isnt needed. i have a iron cobra double kick, if your going to buy one dont waste money on a cheap one it will make it harder to learn, just get a half decent one

I couldn't agree with you more, a cheap one is, as i say cheap, but it will be a matter of weeks before your trying to sell it so you can get a better one lol

p.s, i am losing the poll to steerpike??? lol, His jokes are classic, you saw them in the musical jokes thread?

I don't even know what double kicking is :upset:

metallica owns!!!!!!!!!!!!

true that.

I wonder what Metallica are doing now...? Maybe, swimming in their pools of cash? Or still goldplating their property?

Perhaps so. They have the money to do it, unlike you.

Bit of jealousy eh?

Oh yeah, definitely. My friends and I are starving all over the world, and barely have enough clothes to cover ourselves.

But oh well, keep waiting for 'St Anger 2', fellow Selloutallica fans!

Yeah, cause I really like Metallica after the Black Album. So they have loads of money, big ****ing deal. So do many people who don't deserve it. Why don't you think of something constructive to say or just **** off.

you mean what metallica "is" doing now? they're recording

I think after St. Anger came out, Metallica hopefully realized that this isnt the kind of music that their die hard fans want them playing. They want the good old metal from the 80s, not the modern age crap rock from the 90s.

Yeah, they were never really one to follow the crowd, at least back in the 80s. They were actually controversial back then.

It would be cool if they went back to the old stuff, but I'm not all that worried about how it's gonna be. I'll probably like it, 'cuz I've liked all the others.
