Hello all
I have owned a H&K TM18 head & matching cab for about 7 months now
I am having an ongoing issue finding the tones I am after.
I have tried both channels, changing the eq, I don't like the boost button
I have tried adding pedals to shape the tone (doesn't seem to like distortion or fuzz pedals at all, get really tinny)
The 5w and 1w settings sound terrible
The 18w is where I have stayed mostly
I find the cleans to be pristine, almost too pristine
This is my first tube amp, so I am a noob.
I am at the point of thinking I need to sell this and try something else
But I am concerned I am missing something and another amp is not going to solve the issue
So I am turning here for some help from other TM18 users
Mine is a head & 1x12 H&K cab (vintage 30's)
I tried single coils and humbuckers through it
What's the magic setting? What am I missing?
I have read several forums about setting your amps eq, not specific to the TM18
Nothing has helped
Thanks in advance for you help
