  • Exploring some metal tones in the EVH 5150iii 50w. Dressed a little different from the usual grey $6 Target shirt. I love my skateboarding and just found out one of the greats, Jeff Grosso passed recently at 51. I loved watching his Loveletters to Skateboarding. That was my era and he was one of the good ones.

    Fun fact: in Stranger Things, Eddie Munson's guitar tone actually came from an EVH 5150 despite using a Fender Princeton Reverb in the film

    You nailed the Slayer tone, Justice was really close, all you needed was a shit ton of compression. You were close on Puppets but it needed some more mids. All in all just amazing. Thank you.

  • @JeffreyTheTaylor
    @JeffreyTheTaylor 4 года назад +8

    For high gain, multi channel heads, you really increase your options with a good EQ pedal. The MXR M108S ($130) is 10 bands with Vol (pre) AND Gain (post) boosts. Perfect for the taming the EVH wolf and roar.

  • @singleproppilot
    @singleproppilot 4 года назад +6

    On mine I leave the red channel gain at 2. It makes a nice, crunchy rhythm sound which is darker than the blue channel. If I want to use the red channel to play leads, i step on a boost pedal.

    Want one so bad! Current setup is Bugera JCM clone with a Fortin grind though Carvin 4x12 with G12-75
    On the newer models with shared EQ I’d consider running an OD (make the low end flubby and add it) but without that the clean would suck.

    I just ordered the 2.0 version, I had a first generation and regrettably traded for a Flying V a few years back. I will say this though, get the EVH cab for it, some people think V30s sound better with this amp but I disagree. The EVH 2x12 has the G12H 30th Anniverary Celestion speakers which have better balance for this amp.

  • @Badlander1994

    Maybe somebody can help me. If 1 use a overdrive of distortion pedal on the green channel it gives a clipping sound more fuzz like. While on the blue channel it just pushes the gain further.
    I use a Pinnacle distortion and Catalingbread DLS.
    With the Pinnacle, it supposed to give me a good distortion sound on the green channel, instead i get the clipping. Is that normal?

    If you have good clean pickups like Lundgred M8s the red channel is tight and useable . Lundgred pick ups help make the highest gain amps ultra tight . It’s not amps with too much gain . It’s just most pick ups have too much nasty over tones
