Hello,
I have a tubemeister 40 deluxe, I loved the YouTube videos of the demos, and now that I have it, I can't find the hard rock sound of AC/DC, Zeppelin, nEIL YOUNG, Purple, Creedencem Thin Lyzzy, Black Sabbath. , Judas...etc. (and some 80's metal)
I use an Epiphone Las Paul with JB pickups, and a 2x12 cab with a Celestion type V.
The crunch channel with gain 13, treble 13, mid 15, record 11, starts to give me AC/DC sound, but I miss a little "punch" in the mute range.
If I increase the gain to improve the mute range, the sound becomes too brutal and begins to mix with something that reminds me of metal. The same thing happens with the guide me channel.
If I start removing gain, the sound becomes thinner and cleaner, it no longer has any punch.
How could I solve it?
I have tried a BOSS distortion and overdive pedal, and I did not like the mix on any channel (clean, crunch, lead), since the pedal takes away body, mids and makes it too brutal (and I spent a long time moving the settings ).
Any recommended pedals that are compatible to push something to this crunch?
I'm a little disoriented, honestly.
I bought this amp so I wouldn't have to use pedals, and now it scares me to think that PEDALS CAN'T BE USED BECAUSE THEY DON'T MATCH VERY GOOD WITH THIS AMPLIFIER.
I have a 1-month trial, and if I don't find a solution, I may have to return it.
Please help.
Thank you so much.
