The Tweed is great for SRV stuff, but my bread-and-butter clean is the Blackface one. I've been messing with the US Higain but I'm having some issues removing the high-end harshness.
Lately with my strats I've been using the AC-30 and UK 70's settings. It seems the more I play, the more I'm getting away from the high gain amp models.
Even with my Flextone, the 4 patches I have locked in are the Twin Reverb, AC-30, JTM-45, and the Silver Jubilee (High Gain).
Guitars: 2003 and 2004 American series strats, Squier Classic Vibe 50's Strat, Squier Deluxe Strat.
Amps: Line 6 Spider IV 120, Vox AD50VT 212, and Peavey Transtube Bandit 112.
Pedals: Digitech Bad Monkey.

I just dialed it in, not bad. I'm being nice to the kids this morning and not playing the Valve Jr for another 1/2 hour.

Hey, I am happy I can give an answer to this question now that I play this amph once a week :-)
My favourites are the Deluxe 2x12 and the UK70.
I treat the Deluxe just like I treat a real Fender Blackface amp so the setting is:
Gain 6
Treble 6
Bass 2
Mid 3
(Reverb 2)
That is the magical Fender 6 6 6! Gain 6, (Bass & Mid 2x3 =6), Treble 6
Sounds awesomely good in a band surrounding. I dig this amp more and more.

Since the chicken-head knobs don't have numbers & go from from about 7 o'clock to about 5 o'clock, would that be:Originally Posted by Jimi75
Gain 1:00
Treble 1:00
Bass 9:00
Mid 10:00
or the magical 1 1 90?

I am very very happy with the tone & feel of the P90 on my Godin 5th Avenue into the Black 2x12 model with headphones.
I didn't know what to expect. It sounds sweet.

While my TM60 was in the repair shop I was using my DA5 on Clean2 (=Black 2x12 in the ADs) with all three knobs at 2 o'clock. For drives I turned it to Crunch 2 (=UK 80s) and didn't touch the other controls. I always turn the noise reduction as far down as possible, the amp just opens up and breathes a lot better.
Electric: Fat strat > Korg PB > TS7 > DS1 > DD-20 > Cube 60 (Fender model)
Acoustic: Guitar > microphone > audience
Yeah, that was my favorite model for my P90 Xaviere too. Man, I've REALLY got to get another P90 axe sometime soon.I am very very happy with the tone & feel of the P90 on my Godin 5th Avenue into the Black 2x12 model with headphones.

I've been playing my tele into the AC30 setting:
Gain 10:00
Vol dimed
Tre 2:00
Mid Dimed
Bass 10:00
Nice teetering-on-the-edge-of breakup sound, though as often as not I'll use the OCD to push it over -- drive knob at about 1:00, volume at 9:00 or so.

It must be that the Blackface scooped tone plays well with the somewhat middy character of P90s.Originally Posted by Ro3b
