KuruPrionz Posted April 27, 2021 Share Posted April 27, 2021 FWIW, Treble Boosters helped Prog Guitarists like Steve Hackett and Steve Howe cut through the Synth-heavy mixes of their bands. And some simply used JBL D120 speakers, with the glass shattering trebles. I'm not in their league but was in a loud, messy band so I put a pair of D120's in the bottom of my 4-12" cab and a pair of EVM 12L's in the top. So glad I don't have to lug that around anymore!!!!!

Hmn, I didn't know that about Steve Howe using a treble booster; that makes sense, though, thinking of his overall sound, especially on live concert recording. Cool. Thanks!

Dave Bryce Posted April 28, 2021 Author Share Posted April 28, 2021 Does anybody plug into the normal channel? If so, why? Brian May uses the Normal channel on his AC30 - through a Treble Booster (various ones over the years). Treble boosters can bring an amp to life. One of my favorite tricks with modelers. I've enjoyed putting various favorite octave-fuzz and distortion pedals in front of digital-modelers; VAST improvement, really bringing 'em to life. I"m hip. I also quite like running digital gear through some kind of tube pre/compressor. dB Quote ==> David Bryce Music • Funky Young Monks <== Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
