[QUOTE="JKD, post: 66915, member: 879"] When you get into high gain territory...I honestly find a lot of the Modules sound similar.... I'm not sure of the theory of it but it sounds to me like there's two different sound breeds (say Mesa'ish and Marshall'ish) and then minor variations (small component value changes) around these two themes. EDIT: I'm excluding clean/pseudo clean modules and variations around Fender circuits of course....we're talking high gain here :-) I've been able to dial a Friedman ERect(al), a Grail, an SLO type module, an Egnater EG5 and a slightly modded Mr Scary, a Deadplate to sound extremely similar.....each had varying amounts of low end according to their inputs but the tone was very close IMO....of course we each strive to dial in 'our tone' so that plays a part too. The Friedman HBE will kill for hair metal..and all the way up to decent classic thrash....the Gigmods 1087 should be able to do classic rockish in the lower gain voicing too....but I found it stiff.
