I feel like the type of amp and signal chain in general is a lot more important than amp settings. Cool video nonetheless, great sounds and playing

[@skoorbryan]

Yeah, you can have two fender twins side by side dialed in with everything the same, and the Potentiometers can never be made exactly the same causing no amp to have exactly the same settings ever. (Unless it’s a modeler).

[@Juiceboxbrian]

@@skoorbryan yeah 100%. I used to run two 1967 bandmaster reverbs (both looked over by the same tech w/ same tubes and verified to be completely original) yet one always broke up sooner and a little nicer than the other.

[@open_e8754]

Speakers are a big factor. Lots of videos A/B/Cing heads with the same cab and vise versa. Cab type and speakers makes the most noticeable difference compared to an amp head and its settings.

I’m sure adjusting your knobs to these settings makes you sound just like them, no other pedals or anything extra needed.

Right? Like its the pedals and the player's style that makes it their sound. Van Halen simply used overdrive and a rewired tube amp to get his sound.

[@mrbread3623]

Yeah, none of it sounded like the artist he was going for. That's not a dig at his playing ability, but you can't really expect to get that same tone by plugging in any guitar into any amplifier and making the same adjustments to amp.

[@c0unterac342]

In no world is all the treble with no beef, considered "solid foundation" Especially since A. These aren't confirmed settings of any amp any of these people used And b. Even if they were you need the same EXACT amp each used to match Also we KNOW you're bypassing the amp behind you and instead running into tone shaping software like Bias effects or something Because EQ doesn't work the way this video would imply. And it's impossible to get all of these from JUST changing the EQ knobs. That's why the KEMPER is popular That's why BIAS is popular That's why archetypes are popular Because they're digital solutions to the issue of needing multiple amplifiers to recreate so many tones A marshal and a fender don't sound the same A boss and a dumble don't sound the same Etc etc etc Please stop lying to the guitar newbies. Hendrix played on an amp with scooped mids (naturally) even though he maxed all his tone knobs Clapton had his mids set lower because his amp naturally BOOSTED mids That's why Clapton sounds like he has more mids than Hendrix But yet according to your video here Hendrix had all the mids and Clapton had like none.

Frusciante’s tone could do with some overdrive. Not distortion. You want the gain cranked up to the point where it starts to break up and then either leave it or dial it back a little so you still have that thick overdriven texture/tone if you really go hard on the attack.

[@willcresson8776]

It's worth noting Frusciante has an extensive pedal board and synth/filter setup, both in the studio and live. His tone post BSSM is very rarely, if ever, guitar straight into amp. He also rides his volume and tone knobs a lot. A good compressor pedal goes a long way in making Frusciantes amp settings sound more like his actual record and live tones.

[@loekheijmans7131]

I believe that frusciante's tone doesn't use the treble that much, I believe his settings were something like: treb 3 mid 5 bass 6. At least that's what I've read. Then he cranks up the volume to get more treble and also get some distortion.

[@Sr.siriuss]
