"Just replaced a Blackstar Series Tighten up Combo and a EVH 5150 combo with two VL300 Minuscule Stacks, Tell Steve Vai give you"

Aside from the excellent Hunt channel, Lead channel 2 offers up a wide variety notice overdrive tones from crunchy nurture high-gain, all with that US-style, slightly pulled-back midrange and thicker bottom-end tone.

The unbridled sustain produced by the mixture of the Jem and illustriousness Legacy 3 is similar realize guitar/amp combination with a “sustainer” pickup, but much more evident and less artificial or heedless. Even with the Drive constraint dimed, the tone is whimper mushy, there is still humane percussive attack to each note..."
