How did your Remedy do - how was the volume with your band? First off I cannot get over the molten tone coming out of this amp! It haunts me, beckons me to play it. Its calling me right now! Practice was great- the guys dug the amp and its hypnotic chime, but they were a bit confused. We play a variety of covers along with our own stuff we call Appalachian voodoo- we do some Floyd, Tom Waits, Stones, Allman Bros etc. We do a lot of un-apologetic dual guitar leads and textures - its or thing. I get along really well with the other guitarist- music-psychics during improv when we are on. My part is bringing the post-rock and psychedelic flavor that somehow meshes with Randy's blistering r&b. So I showed up last night with my remedy, cab and guitars... no pedals. Not even a tuner! Freaked them out a bit. It was liberating- not complete (meaning I do have some responsibilities for modulation and delay sounds in our material). It did put the essentials front and center for me-mainly learning to use my GV as a gain knob and pickup selector as rhythm/lead switch - this is new to me as my previous amp had tons of headroom and a giant sound, dirt from pedals kind of limited vol/gain variation, but was instant. Problem was my notes did not sing and sometimes thin. Hence the remedy (literally : . So now Im in GV training. By the end of practice I dialed in a decent eq setting and HV/LV relationship that I could roll back both GVs and GTs to get from a to b, shades between. just need to learn to do it smoother and not panic and step back to turn up the amp!
