Do not crank the gain ffs
You only need miniscule amounts of gain on channel *3*, I guess that's why everyone speaks of fizz - they put the damn gain on 5 or higher and/or use the fourth channel :zombie:
lol.
don't tell me
a guitarist that buys an PB turns the gain all the way up in the studio, that's the reason he got himself a PB, its monstereous gain.
a guitarist that bought a powerball for that reason is almost impossible to be convinced of using less gain, tried that thousand times
a guitarist that knows he doesn't need tons of gain probably won't buy a PB, 'cause there are millions of better amps out there with enough gain, why should he buy a PB, when he's not using channel 4 anyway?
guitarists with PB's always say :"that doesn't have enough distortion for my taste..".
at least that's my experience with PB owners.
i've owned several amps (some mesas, alot of engls, soldanos, VHT etc), and i assume i know how to set them up to sound good.....most of them blew the PB away in a recording situation.
i like amps with character and i like to hear my mistakes if there are any, i like to hear a difference between different guitars, i like clarity, so i cannot like the PB, just my opinion
problem is, most of the PB overhypers haven't even tried other engls, and can't even compare and tell that the others (blackmore, savage..) are way better.
hey, it always comes down to taste:zombie:
