Tone Baby!
I have been working on my “Tone”. Trying this … trying that. I think I maybe braking ice here. I have a question on using both the guitar’s volume(s) and tone(s) controls.
I am trying to get a nice clean Fender sound using the Black Face and Tweed modelers. I am following Marnold’s suggestion. Just dial in a preset and don’t adjust anything. Ok maybe a little volume.
So the sound is a little sparkeling I use both the neck and bridge humbuckers. The bridge is set one number lower than the neck pickup. I do understand that the volume can control the tone to the amp.
The question is: Where does everybody generally keep their volume and tone controls to be able to adjust for different songs? I am thinking around 6 would be half way. Anything above would introduce a distortion. Anything below would clean up the sound. I guess the tone my be kept a little higher since it keeps the sparkling sound.
