[Mike Wead]

That's one damn sexy amp!
Excuse a noob question...in what way does the biasmod effect the sound?
More gain,tighter?

[Lasse Lammert]

should have arrived by now,did you have a chance to give it a testrun?

 

[FloridaRolf]

Haha sure, but I had a lot to do in the last few days (drinking)
So far it's great, though it's super bass heavy (Engl 212 V30 box)
Still experimenting with settings, but so far it's a lot of fun
Packaging was superb btw!

 

[guitarguru777]

Add a TS in the front it will clean up those wooofy bottoms!

 

[FloridaRolf]

I got a Maxon OD-820 in front of it but still have the bass at 0-1 and resonance at 0, am I doing something wrong?

 

[guitarguru777]

What do your overall settings look like? Which channel you running?

My settings usually look like:
TS -
Level 12:00
Tone 1:00
Gain 9:00

5150 Red Channel -
Gain 4
Bass 6
Mids 3
High 7
Resonance 7
Presence 7

Green settings are same except I usually crank the Gain and engage the crunch & bright switch

 

[FloridaRolf]

TS: gain 9:00
tone 10:30
level 12:00

high input
green channel (crunch)
gain 5-7
low 0-1
mid 5-6
high 6
resonance 0
presence 4

 

[guitarguru777]

Jump over to Red, its a bit less woofy

 

[Mikaël-ange]

TS: gain 9:00
tone 10:30
level 12:00

high input
green channel (crunch)
gain 5-7
low 0-1
mid 5-6
high 6
resonance 0
presence 4

Gain:11
low:13
mid:9
treble:14
res:maxed
pres:15

Every setting are o'clock.
Standard 6505 setting so learn around that

TS: gain 9:00

gain 5-7
low 0-1
mid 5-6
high 6
resonance 0
presence 4

that's odd.
the 6505 has some low end chunk but bass and reso all the way down is weird...
well, pres4 is definitely too low (try between 8 and 9) but still, bass and reso all the way down....have you checked if all the tubes are still in the sockets? just to make sure that not perhaps one came out of the socket during transport os so.
can you record a sample?
what amps did you play before (just so I know what tones you're referencing to)..
but first...raise that presence a lot, the amp needs that to open up and get rid of the woofyness

 

[FloridaRolf]

Habe mal das Innere gecheckt und alles in Ordnung (soweit mein ungeschultes Auge sehen konnte), alle Röhren (Vor- & Endstufe) drin. Bei post gain von 0-0,5 hört man nur Bass, ab ~0,5 (über Zimmerlautstärke) kommt jedenfalls was halbwegs ordentliches raus (ist das normal? das letzte mal hab ich 'nen 6505 vor 'nem halben Jahr gespielt )
Das Bassproblem hat sich auch beim post gain von ~3 nicht wirklich behoben.
Presence echt so hoch? Kommt mir schon bei 4 etwas kratzig vor, wobei das auch einfach an der Box liegen kann.
Habe sonst an der Box den Marshall JCM 800 2203 KK laufen, der macht da eine echt gute Figur (hattest du auch, oder?)
Ich feuer das Teil morgen nochmal mit ordentlicher Lautstärke an, hab aber gerade kein Mic zur Hand.

Sorry I was just too lazy to write it in english

 

[guitarguru777]

Hmmm something just sounds off. I need to hear it mic'd. Did you try my settings?

Oh and GOOGLE TRANSLATE FTW!

 

[Lasse Lammert]

Ja, etwas Lautstärker braucht er schon um nicht zu kratzen.
Das Presence macht eher das schön moderne, ich nehme dafür den Treble runter, das kratzte eher (sneap und richardson haben Presence auf 8-9 und Mark Lewis/suecof sogar 9-10).
der Amp braucht das tatsächlich.

probier mal Gain auf4 (in rot) oder 7 (in grün), bass: 6-7 mid-2-3 trb: 5-6 reso:7 pres 8-9.
dann mit nem TS davor und du hast den typischen Sneap sound
