On the opposite side of the panel are controls for the SGT overdrive. The 1/8" jacks for headphones and aux-in are located immediately adjacent to this section. There are also push buttons for the ultra hi and ultra lo boost/cut functions that take the place of an SVT’s rocker switches. It includes knobs for volume, bass, midrange, and treble. The pedals are wired into a Bright Onion Pedals switcher that allows Sheppard to bypass an entire board or each individual pedal in case of a problem, as Josh is fairly rough when kicking his pedals on and off.Ī classic, straightforward SVT-style control layout makes up most of the RB-115’s top panel-a welcome and reassuring sight. The signal comes into a Boss TU-2 tuner, into an Ibanez WH10, Keeley-modded Boss DS-1, Marshall Guv'nor, Pigtronix PolySaturator, Wilson Effects Fuzz, Boss Analog Delay, Boss DD-3 (clipped repeats), Boss DD-3 (glitching Radiohead-style), Electro-Harmonix Deluxe Memory Man (short slapback), Electro-Harmonix Deluxe Memory Man Tap Tempo (used with the expression pedal), Boss Vibrato ("Suck My Kiss"), Boss CE-2, Boss CE-2 (modded for wider sweep), Lastgasp Labs Cybertronic (high-end, whispy filter), Moog Moogerfooger Low-Pass Filter, Line 6 FM4 (synth sounds), Moog Moogerfooger 12-Stage Phaser (used for "Throw Away Television" in conjunction with the FM4's sequential synth), Boss SG-1 Slow Gear, Boss RV-5, Electro-Harmonix Cathedral, Electro-Harmonix Freeze, Boss DD-6 (cascading repeats), Electro-Harmonix Goly Grail, Xotic Effects EP Booster, Wilson Effects Haze, Lo-Tech-N-Fi-Bot Pocket Synth, Line 6 DL4 (used as a looper and phrase sampler between songs), Bright Onion looper (used as a kill switch), Boss CS-2 Compressor, and a Framptone 3-Banger amp switcher. Certain pedals are on the board to capture the recognizable recorded tones, while others are used for fun as he feels in any given moment. Josh changes his pedalboard setup constantly, but when we caught up with him, it'd been steady for a few shows. All three amps are on at the same time and the effects are run through all three. The vintage Marshall Major provides the basis for his tone with an emphasis on low-end, the Silvertone is run a bit quieter for midrange, and the Fender Super Six is set even quieter and provides top end. 046 on all of the guitars except the White Penguin, which is strung with. He uses a Gretsch White Penguin for Californication-era songs as a tip-of-the-hat to Frusciante, an early-70s Gibson ES-335 for "Universally Speaking" and a Neil Young song, a '67 Telecaster that was a gift from Frusciante long ago, a '64 custom-color Fender Jaguar used for lighter songs, a 12-string Gibson Firebird with some modifications to the pickguard and switching, a Fender Coronado 12-string in burnt orange (dropped a half step for "Breaking the Girl"), and a "Fools Telemaster" relic'd Tele/Jazzmaster-style hybrid. His main Strat is a black '66 with a '68 neck and he also uses a black 1974 hardtail Strat as his backup. I did what you told me, but now it sounds duller.Josh uses a core of Strats, starting with Chad Smith's '63 Tobacco Sunburst used for older songs like "Higher Ground" and anything with a whammy bar.
If its too bright, use your tone control mid way or use the 2 and 4 positions of the guitar pickup selector. Go from just a broken up tone to a slightly more overdriven sound by using the guitar volume for dynamic. Set something like this:įor RHCP's I use the guitar volume control often. That 8" speaker is more limited, so you may have to work more to get the low end you seek. Using the Spider V 30 watt version you have to be more creative than those with a 60 120 or 240 version. Use the EQ after the amp to dial back in the sound you want from the speaker. Spider V use extended range speakers from what I read. Next part I use is the EQ after the Amp and Cab. Add slight compression but try to use the amp for the distortion unless you use distortion for a clean boost. Try: Drive 8, Bass high, Mids 7 or 8, Treble 8. Setting a real P45 like that would be a dull tone for me anyway. Part of the problem with those settings is not using the modeling properly. Also, any thoughts on where the tone knobs should be at? I'm using the bridge pickup on my Squier Strat. Should this be where the knobs are at? I also have compression and distortion on. My settings are Plexi 45, Drive at 2, Bass at 5-6, Mid at 9, and Treble at 7. I'm trying to get a tone for Can't Stop, but something just sounds off to me.
With all the options this amp has (V 30) it's really confusing for a beginner (doing more research along the way). Hey, I'm new to playing the electric guitar and I bought this amp last month.
