Appendices

Tube Crunch

When the GAIN knob is at maximum, this produces a sound with the

lustrous distortion obtained from a vacuum-tube amplifier with the

volume turned all the way up.

You can obtain a near-clean sound with little distortion and unchanged

airy brightness simply by slightly turning down the volume on the

guitar.

By adjusting the volume knob on the guitar together with the GAIN

knob setting, adjusting the GAIN knob so that the amount of distortion

changes naturally depending on your picking dynamics with little

change in volume, you can obtain sound with a broad range of

expressiveness.

Swamp Crunch

This is a blues sound found in vintage amps, with a tenacious midrange

and low end and a bright, open high band.

The boosted midrange and high end are distinguishing characteristics

of the TWEED amp. By turning up the TREBLE knob or lowering the

BASS knob slightly, you can adjust the attack sound of the picking.

To create a fat, sweet sound, reducing the presence a little may be

beneficial.

Conversely, to produce a transparent and sharp crunch sound with

little distortion, lower the midrange while boosting the presence

slightly.

Hard Stack

This is a 1970s-style hard-rock sound.

Turning up the gain and the equalizer all the way produces a powerful

rock sound in all riffs and solos.

Applying a clean delay with a short delay time of 30 ms produces a fat

sound characteristic of the sounds emitted by the surfaces of the

cabinet.

Adding just a touch of phaser can also make the sound even broader.

Using effects devices like overdrive as well can produce distortion with

even richer harmonics.

You can also obtain a clear and airy crunch sound by turning down the

GAIN and BASS knobs.

Tapping Lead

This is a high-gain lead sound with sustain.

If you’re using a guitar with single-coil pickups, boost the gain to

produce sustain.

Raise the high end and presence to produce fully developed picking

harmonics. To produce smooth legato notes when using tapping, turn

down the midrange.

To make the sound even fuller, add just a light amount of delay and

reverb. Set a long delay time to keep phrases from becoming muddy.

Applying FLANGER produces a sound with smooth breadth, even when

playing riffs.
