What did you guyz say? I just got done playing it in the bedroom with no attenuation. This white noise is following me wherever I go now. What the hell is that...

Here is the Monza in my bedroom at normal conversation level, no attenuator. You can here me plucking the strings its so quiet. Recorded with a Flip camera. I'm using a pedal to get me where I want. This of course is just for home practice neutering the volume level immensely and to me is a shock I could get anything usable from it at the amps settings using EMG actives of all things hehe.
The amps settings are under the vids description.

Thanx guyz.
Toneexplorer gave me the idea and I told him I'd try it out. Well I'd say he was right. It turned out much better than I thought it would but wasn't that some crazy amp settings haha! I'm not kidding when I say the amp was almost off. It worked though. My wife thanx you too by the way!

Thanks bruthers.
I think what we have found here is a way to play the Monza in the bedroom with usable tones for that environment. All one has to do is set the amp on minimal settings volume and drive wise, adjust pedal settings to get various amounts of saturation and EQ settings. It actually works.
I bet there is alot of guys who hear it isn't a bedroom amp and then take a pass on it cause thats where alot of their playing will be. Now they can play it quietly(without an attenuator)and still have decent tone and then when the coast is clear open that Bad Betty up and enjoy the Monza like it was meant to be hehe.
