Newbie advice

[MontyW]

Hi,

First post....

I've come to this forum to find out as much information I can about building a MTS preamp. I'm 90% certain MTS modules is the way forward for me as I like valves, although have been considering an Axe Fx - but I'm more plug and play.

Could you guys recommend me either stock or modified modules that will cover the following types of amps/tones:

* Fender Tweed Deluxe - think Keith Ricard Rolling Stones

* Marshall Plexi - think Paul Kossoff from Free

* Boogie Dual Recto - needs no explanation

* Either a tight ENGL type metal tone or something along the Framus Cobra.

Looking forward to your advice.

Tweed - Jaded Faith Tweed

Plexi - Sacred Groove MK22 or Salvation Duoplex

Dual Rec - Sacred Groove Diablo (older recto tone), Salvation Deadplate II or Jaded Faith Erect (newer recto tone)

ENGL and Cobra - Salvation Angel B (ENGL) and Salvation Mamba (Cobra)

Welcome to the board

Thanks - I'll check these out now.

Sorry I'm probably being dumb, but where do I find details of the Sacred Groove modules you mention?

Search function is quickest way on top to try to find threads, not always super smooth lol but gets the job done most of the time.

For the Tweed tone you can ask Anthony (Salvation Mods) for a custom tweed module.

He has done one for me which is called the Mu?eca, eventually it will be released as the Tweak 'n Tweed.
Mine had many switches on it for a lot of sounds. It is realy the mother of crunch modules.

Here's my quick demo of it:

(just screwing around with the settings, do check out all the different tones in there!)

Cleans up very well too:

As for the Engl / Cobra tone, the Salvation Mods Mamba is a very popular module, a lot of people love this one.

Get a Plexi and a Tweed in one module - the Plexi?Tweed. One available now.
