I would recommend klon (drive at 11 o'clock) > Model H (drive 12 o'clock, tone 3 o'clock) > Honey bee (drive and tone 10 o'clock) > EHDMM. Amazing knock your socks off lead tone. Sorry neighbors :lol: Klon>SWF is also amazing

1. Put down my ASAT and grab up my good ol Gibson SG. Need the Humbucker outputs.
2. Crank up my burst Eternity to mid gain (gain and treble around 1:30, slight boost)
3. MP MRD- Equal volume to the Bypassed Tone, Treble around 1oclock, and here's the kicker- gain backed off to around 10oclock.
4. Some mild delay from my TC Electronics- enough that you can tell its there, but way less than equal to the original signal- the first repeat is about 2/3 as loud as the attack.


Viola! Sounds SWEEEEEEET and higain! I'll have to get my hands on a LGW- perhaps next summer... Can't afford it now! just blew all my spare change for the next 3 months on AnalogHog's SYOD... noodles it is for me...


Hi,

You know while reading this and your signature, it struck me something a guy I know who often uses Ultra High Gain sounds told me. He said he'd predrive his DRD or his MRD or his Folk Fuzz with Honey Bee.

Actually I did try that in my own set up and placed Honey Bee before my distortion and fuzz boxes after hearing what that did.

Oh yes Eternity would do well too as predrive and yes humbuckers really aid too

Have fun
BJ

Hi,

Yes that would be great combinations too. I have found that it is easier to get lower noise at extreme gains by stacking.

Have fun
