Hi all!
Been a while since Ive been on, several things have taken up all my time as of late. Im pleased to report that Ive actually made some progress with playing though, my co-ordination is a lot tighter and my speed has picked up without me focusing on it - thanks to all who gave me great advice!
I currently have a Peavey Bandit with a Celestion G12K, and a Line 6 spider. Lately, Ive been going off the Spiders sound - especially on palm muted chords/chugs, where it lacks definition, it all gets a bit muddy. Im preferring the Bandit just now, the only problem is that its bloody LOUD; on the gain channel, sitting at 1/10 is more than enough.
Im thinking about buying a new amp, but am still at a level of playing where I dont think Id have the confidence to spend a while in a shop trying out different amps - not unless everyone wanted to hear the same 10 riffs with different tone each time! :D
Im looking for something smallish, perhaps a bit versatile. I play mostly metal with a bit of blues, and its always playing at home, I dont gig. Anyone recommend an amp or two to check out in particular? Or would any pedals/mods work well with the bandit?
Thanks all :)
