Single Coil's Manifesto part 2
By KenBJammen on Mar 9, 2010 | In Music
I hate to throw everyone off by breaking this up with an effect review, but I am trying to keep everyone on their toes.
The rest of the single coil manifesto (interpreted)
All preamp distortion, tube or solid state, will sound buzzy at low volumes. I don't care if it's a point-to-point wired Matchless Hotbox, a Boogie V-Twin or whatever, preamp distortion sounds buzzy unless it's used moderately in combination with a hot power amp. That's just the way it is.
A good point to remember.
Tube amps still sound more organic than solid state amps. The difference is mostly in the power amp section, however. That's just the way it is.
Another good point to remember, even if you are running the latest $1200 digital emulator.
