holy crap that's strange!every time i see the name Eastwood i think of the bendercaster !
I got tones.
Poorly played but an experiment for me for now. My ears are playing tricks on me so i am just going to cut the umbilical on this and put it here. I downloaded Amplitube 4 because i really liked some if miners tones he got out of it. Maybe it was AT3? But regardless, i found that for a sim they had a very noticeable shape and feel my PodX3 tones didn't/don't have.
I did an A/B between the two sims and tonally i hear a huge difference. However, I'll say it again, i've been at this now for an hour or more and my ears are just hearing night and day differences. Meaning, they both could sound like ass and i really wouldn't know at this point.
What do you all think? I won't say what is what for now. they are both canned tones. Apologies for the really bad buzz and interference in the tracks.
Tone A
Tone B
I think the line 6 sounds more simmy but that could be cod I've used line 6 so much so I'm very familiar with the tones
When I downloaded them the file names were Line 6 and AT!
Suppose you don't see the sun for 3 months of the year. Isn't that why you're all kinky motherfuckers too?
I'm posting on phone and just clicked on them. Maybe it's an android browser thing. I'd probably have guessed the Line 6 tone anyway, it immediately sounded familiar to me.
I think G3 sounds good. Dunno what it is about G1 &2 they don't seem prominent enough, too much Gain maybe? Maybe they're blending too much with the bass or something but they don't seem to stand out, they're not "punching through". It's quite a cool Zeppelin type riff and it could do with that sort of swagger.Hey guys,
Hope I can throw my hat in the ring here. I'm trying different settings on my amp. Still trying to get a good hard rock distortion. I did a few things differently on this.
My Fender SuperChamp X2 is a modelling amp, with a tube. I think I was guilty of using my eyes rather than my ears in the past. I stayed away from pre-sets called "Fender Super-Sonic" or "American Metal" just because I didn't like what I thought they would sound like. But the "American metal" pre-set is actually a Mesa Boogie model. Ever since I bought this amp, I pretty much only used pre-sets that had the word "Marshall" in them, thinking that's what I want. But most of those "Marshall" pre-sets actually lack balls and sustain.
So, I ignored what the name of the pre-sets are and just tried to get the best sound I can. Hoping this sounds better.
The 2 rythm guitars panned wide right and left are "Fender Super Sonic", EPi SG on the left and Gibson SG on the right.
The "third" guitar is a "Mesa Boogie Rectifier" with the Gibson SG.
Don't mind the drum machine. I always do my drums last, and I haven't done them yet.
Thanx J. I agree now that I've listened a few times. Gits 1 and 2 are dark. No bite. It's funny, I either get too much fizz or none at all, which isn't any good either. It's not mic placement or anything like that in this case. The sound itself seems to lack high end. I'm pretty sure we both hear the same thing. I'll let a few other ears confirm that.

Greg will be able to tell better.
Thanx Lt. Yeah, I'm going to re-re-amp them. It might be too much gain, but like I said above, with these modellers, it's almost impossible to turn down the gain. I'm going to see what I can do about that.The two thythms are pretty mushy which sounds kinda 'dark' ..... I think it could be too much gain because that compresses the sound and keeps them from having a sharp attack.
As JDOD said Greg'll be able to tell you right off.
The 'lead' git sounds ok but it could still use a little more bite for my tastes.
neat riffs.
The guitars sound flat because they need some air/space. Just a hint of delayed room reverb would work wonders.
