Some amplifiers have separate bass, middle and treble controls, whereas others have a single control which is usually called either EQ or tone which essentially combines the three separate settings. In this case, you’ll want to make sure your amp sounds very clean and then use the pedal again to achieve some overdrive which will normally involve it being turned around a quarter of the way up. This is possible with either a solid state or tube amp. The only other option, is if you are using a distortion or overdrive pedal instead of using your amp for the gain. They key is to get an overdriven, rather than a pure distorted tone for most songs. If you have a valve (tube) amplifier, then you’ll want to crank this to just past the edge of break-up for most songs. Some amps will not allow you to use the gain control on the clean channel, in this case, you can use the distorted channel but will only need the gain on around 3 for most songs. This will allow you to achieve a grittier overdriven tone, but without it sounding too heavy. In this case, it’s usually best to select the clean channel and turn the gain up to 4 to begin with. If you have a solid-state amp (most reading this probably will), then you’re likely to have two channels (clean and distorted/ overdriven) and a control that’s called either gain or drive. The first thing we need to discuss, is the type of amplifier you’re using. There are three main types of setting to address here: Also, on display are several rigs used in live performances and sound recordings, along with exclusive interview footage featuring Tom Morello, Keith Richards and Eddie Van Halen.Before we take a deeper dive into the example amp settings for different songs, I think it’s a good idea to get to grips with the settings required to achieve The Rolling Stones tone.
