Played through my PPF a bit, and I realized the sweetness of cranking the nature and fuzz knobs. It almost reminds me of a fuzz face tonality. The mid range is nice and juicy, and the sustain is sweet. I play through a telecaster into a deluxe reverb.

What's everyone's favorite PPF settings?

What about favorites on the Model G while we are at it?

Cheers.

I really have yet to find a setting I don't like on the MG but so far I haven't much use for the "C" knob. It just seems a slight variance between fully cw and ccw but it all sounds quite good. Other than that I run the gain about noon, the nature around 9 or 10 and the volume depending on the situation at the time.

Yeah the C control will vary alot depending on your speakers ---- clearer brighter speakers its really needed to get it sound right ... on a darker setup it hardly does anything .... its kind of like the treble on the EGDM ... into a Fender you have to have it to roll the right freq back to get the correct sound ---- but into a chunky celestion you dont need it at all be cause thats the variation it is providing Fender to Celestion...

That makes sense. I'm either running it through a Marshall with a greenback or a 1484 with Weber Sig12's, both kinda dark pretty chunky setups.
